Analyst projections of the future price of Avis Budget Group stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Avis’s fleet reset is lifting unit economics: Q2 Americas utilisation hit a record 73.2%, while per-unit fleet cost excluding foreign exchange fell 4% year on year to $290 a month. Adjusted EBITDA reached $286m and management expects year-on-year EBITDA growth in Q3, supporting full-year guidance of $850m-$1bn. (Avis Budget Group, Earnings Calls)
Funding risk has eased at the margin: in June, Avis replaced its $2bn revolver with one maturing in 2031, added $200m of revolving capacity, and ended Q2 with about $1bn of liquidity plus $1.9bn of fleet funding capacity. Management also targets reducing net corporate leverage by at least one turn by the end of 2026. (Avis Budget Group, Earnings Calls)
The Waymo partnership gives Avis an option on a new mobility revenue stream: autonomous operations went live in Dallas on 1 June and completed thousands of trips in the first month. Management says the financial contribution should become more visible in 2027 as the launch scales. (SEC filing, Earnings Calls)
Demand has softened: Q2 revenue was $3.0bn, slightly below last year, Americas rental days fell about 2%, and management said forward bookings weakened in early May. It expects the Americas fleet to remain down by a similar mid-single-digit percentage in Q3, with revenue per day roughly flat. (Avis Budget Group, Earnings Calls)
Avis remains highly levered: net corporate leverage was 7.4 times at Q2, while debt under vehicle programmes was $19.85bn against $21.47bn of related assets. This leaves earnings and refinancing costs sensitive to interest rates, used-car values and access to asset-backed funding. (Earnings Calls, SEC filing)
International operations are under pressure: first-half revenue excluding foreign exchange declined and adjusted EBITDA fell 11%, with weaker strategic-account demand and excess vehicle supply in several European markets. That makes a broad recovery harder to rely on even if the Americas stabilises. (Yahoo Finance, Earnings Calls)
