The complaint alleges that the Company issued materially false and misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: a) Hertz was losing sales in a significant market which offers higher rental prices and margins than off-airport, longer-term "replacement car" locations; b) Hertz faced undisclosed exposure to the insolvency of its subsidiary Simply Wheelz LLC, c) Hertz and Advantage Rent A Car were in disagreement over the value of Advantage's assets; and d) Hertz was carrying the value of its fleet transferred to Advantage and Simply Wheelz on its books at an artificially inflated level.
On November 4, 2013, Hertz announced its third quarter 2013 financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2013, reporting that its net income fell from $242.9 million to $214.7 million in the third quarter of 2012. The Company also acknowledged its exposure to Simply Wheelz's insolvency. The following day, Simply Wheelz announced it would file for bankruptcy.
