Supplemental Unaudited Disclosures

Related to the Acquisition of Avis Europe plc

The following disclosures are presented to provide unaudited historical financial and operating data for Avis Europe plc (“Avis Europe”), which was acquired by Avis Budget Group, Inc. (“Avis Budget” or the “Company”) on October 3, 2011.

The unaudited historical financial and operating data for Avis Europe for the first three quarters of 2011 have been prepared from the historical unaudited financial statements of Avis Europe and have been adjusted to retroactively reflect post-acquisition financing of Avis Europe and to exclude transaction-related costs and amortization of intangible assets recognized as a result of the acquisition. The financial information gives effect to the purchase of Avis Europe as if it had occurred on January 1, 2011.

The information is for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of what the financial position or results of operations actually would have been had the acquisition of Avis Europe been completed at the beginning of each period presented, nor is it indicative of the future financial position or results of operations of the combined company. The historical financial information is based on certain assumptions that management believes are reasonable and has been adjusted to give effect to items that are directly attributable to Avis Europe and factually supportable.

The unaudited historical financial and operating data do not reflect any cost savings, operating synergies or revenue enhancements that the combined company may achieve as a result of the acquisition or the costs to integrate the operations of Avis Budget and Avis Europe or the costs necessary to achieve these cost savings, operating synergies and revenue enhancements.

The Company believes these historical financial and operating data will help investors better understand and evaluate the operating results and trends of the business. We believe that this information, combined with other GAAP and non-GAAP metrics such as Adjusted EBITDA, will also aid investors in the comparison of our operating results with other companies’ results.


The Company estimates that, had it consolidated the results of Avis Europe throughout 2011, the incremental impact on Avis Budget’s operating data and results excluding certain items would have been as follows:

(a) Vehicle rental operating statistics (rental days and time and mileage revenue per rental day) are calculated based on the actual usage of the vehicle during a 24-hour period. The Company believes this methodology, while conservative, provides its management with the most relevant statistics in order to manage the business. The Company’s calculation may not be comparable to other companies’ calculations of similarly titled statistics.
(b) The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as income before non-vehicle-related depreciation and amortization, any impairment charge, transaction-related costs, non-vehicle-related interest and income taxes. The Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA is useful as a supplemental measure in evaluating the aggregate performance of our operating businesses. Adjusted EBITDA is the measure that is used by the Company’s management, including its chief operating decision maker, to perform such evaluation. It is also a component of the Company’s financial covenant calculations under its credit facilities, subject to certain adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income (loss) or other income statement data prepared in accordance with GAAP and the Company’s presentation of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA does not take into account any synergies that have resulted or may result from the acquisition of Avis Europe.
(c) Adjusted EBITDA includes vehicle interest related to borrowings under the Company’s €350 million European variable fleet financing facility.
(d) Reflects pre-acquisition depreciation and amortization; excludes amortization of intangible assets recognized as a result of the acquisition.
(e) Interest expense related to corporate debt, net includes incremental costs related to the acquisition of Avis Europe.
(f) Income before taxes excludes transaction-related and other costs incurred by Avis Europe in conjunction with the acquisition by the Company as well as amortization expense related to intangible assets recognized as a result of the acquisition.
