Each filer's latest fiscal year as stored by the nightly crawl; fiscal year ends differ across the universe. A metric ranks only filers for which it is computable from filed facts. Ties split; a rank reads "better than N% of filers" in the metric's own direction. Descriptive and educational, not a rating.
Earnings quality
latest fiscal year ending 2025-12-31 · accruals and cash conversion as filedPer fiscal year from filed facts: cash conversion = operating cash flow / net income (net income > 0); cash-flow accrual ratio = (net income - operating cash flow) / average total assets; balance-sheet accrual ratio = change in net operating assets / average net operating assets, NOA = (assets - cash) - (liabilities - debt). Descriptive; a missing input yields a missing ratio. High accrual ratios and cash conversion well below one are the measures the accruals literature associates with less persistent earnings; they are screens to read the cash-flow statement with, not conclusions.

Acquisitions McNicoll Vehicle Hire In September 2023, we completed the acquisition of McNicoll Vehicle Hire, a vehicle rental company in Scotland specializing in van and car rentals, for approximately $17 million, net of acquired cash. The investment enabled us to expand our footprint of vehicle rental services in Scotland. The excess of the purchase price over preliminary fair value of net assets acquired was allocated to goodwill, which was assigned to our International reportable segment. In connection with this acquisition, approximately $10 million was recorded to goodwill, $4 million was recorded to trade names, and $1 million was recorded to customer relationships. The trade names and customer relationships will be amortized over a weighted average useful life of approximately 10 years. The goodwill was not deductible for tax purposes. In 2024, we finalized our accounting for this acquisition. As a result, we recorded an additional $2 million to the goodwill connected to this acquisition during the year ended December 31, 2024, which represents the additional excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable net assets acquired. Licensees In June 2023, we completed the acquisition of a licensee in North America for approximately $14 million, plus approximately $20 million for acquired fleet. In October 2023, we completed the acquisition of a second licensee in North America for approximately $10 million, plus approximately $4 million for acquired fle …

We are also involved in litigation that is primarily related to the businesses of our former subsidiaries, including Realogy and Wyndham. We are entitled to indemnification from such entities for any liability resulting from such litigation. In September 2014, Dawn Valli et al. v.

Acquisitions In February 2026, we completed the acquisition of a licensee in North America for approximately $46 million, plus approximately $1 million in acquired fleet, with approximately $16 million remaining to be paid through March 2027. This investment is in-line with our strategy to re-acquire licensees when advantageous to expand our footprint of Company-operated locations. In connection with this acquisition, approximately $43 million was recorded to other intangibles related to license agreements, which are being amortized over a weighted average useful life of approximately five years . The fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed has not yet been finalized and is therefore subject to change.

Commitments and Contingencies Contingencies In 2006, we completed the spin-offs of our Realogy and Wyndham subsidiaries (now known as Anywhere Real Estate, Inc., and Wyndham Hotels and Resorts, Inc. and Travel + Leisure Co., respectively). We do not believe that the impact of any resolution of pre-existing contingent liabilities in connection with the spin-offs should result in a material liability to us in relation to our consolidated financial position or liquidity, as Anywhere Real Estate, Inc., Wyndham Hotels and Resorts, Inc. and Travel + Leisure Co. have agreed to assume responsibility for these liabilities. We are also involved in litigation that is primarily related to the businesses of our former subsidiaries, including Realogy and Wyndham. We are entitled to indemnification from such entities for any liability resulting from such litigation. In September 2014, Dawn Valli et al. v. Avis Budget Group Inc., et al. was filed in U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey. The plaintiffs seek to represent a purported nationwide class of certain renters of vehicles from our Avis and Budget subsidiaries from September 30, 2008 through the present. The plaintiffs seek damages in connection with claims relating to alleged misrepresentations and omissions concerning charging customers for traffic infractions and related administrative fees. In October 2023, plaintiffs motion for class certification was denied as to their proposed nationwide class and granted as to a su …

Income Taxes Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2026 was a benefit of 36.0%. Such rate differed from the Federal Statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to foreign income inclusions and foreign taxes associated with our International operations, as well as state taxes. Our effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was a benefit of 24.6%. Such rate differed from the Federal Statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to foreign taxes on our International operations and state taxes. In July 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) was enacted, making permanent key provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, including full expensing on qualified property, and modifications to the business interest expense limitation, as well as introducing phased-in modifications to certain foreign income inclusion provisions effective in 2026 and future periods. As a result of the enactment of OBBBA, our deferred tax balances as of June 30, 2026 reflect the new law. In addition, these phased-in provisions impacted our income tax expense and effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2026; however, the overall impact on our condensed consolidated results of operations was not significant. We continue to monitor the implementation of the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) Pillar Two global minimum tax framework, including recent administrative guidance; however, it did not have a material impact on our condensed consolid …
