What the filing says
Avis reported Q2 2026 revenues of $3.0 billion (down 1% YoY) and Adjusted EBITDA of $286 million (up 3% YoY). Net income attributable to Avis was $35 million vs. $4 million in Q2 2025. The company launched its Waymo autonomous vehicle partnership in Dallas on June 1, 2026, completed thousands of trips in the first month. Fleet utilization improved to 72.6% (up 1.9 percentage points YoY), and per-unit fleet costs fell 4% to $290/month. Financing: $300 million in new 2031 Senior Notes issued in May; refinanced $2 billion revolving credit facility (maturity extended to June 2031) and established $200 million new facility (maturity June 2028). Liquidity: $1.0 billion cash plus $1.9 billion fleet funding capacity.
Why this rating
Q2 results show operational stability (modest EBITDA growth, improved utilization) but flat revenue decline. Waymo partnership is strategic optionality, not material revenue yet. Refinancing improves debt maturity but company carries negative $3.4B stockholders' equity. No business-changing event for $2.8B market-cap firm.
