Hertz Global Holdings Inc., which is the world's largest car rental company, said it has agreed to buy rival Dollar Thrifty Automotive Group for about $1.17 billion in cash and stock. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, regulatory approvals, approval by Dollar Thrifty stockholders and payment of a special dividend. The transaction is not conditioned on receipt of financing by Hertz. Hertz is the largest worldwide airport general use car rental brand operating from more than 8,200 locations in 146 countries worldwide. Hertz is the number one airport car rental brand in the U.S. and at 78 major airports in Europe, operating both corporate and licensee locations in cities and airports in North America, Europe, Latin America, Asia, Australia and New Zealand. Through its Dollar Rent A Car and Thrifty Car Rental brands, Dollar Thrifty has been serving value-conscious travelers since 1950. Dollar Thrifty maintains a strong presence in domestic leisure travel in virtually all of the top U.S. and Canadian airports, and also derives a significant portion of its revenue from international travelers to the U.S. under contracts with various international tour operators. Dollar and Thrifty have approximately 300 corporate locations in the United States and Canada, with approximately 6,000 employees located mainly in North America. |
