If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than July 30, 2024. A lead plaintiff is a representative party who directs the litigation on behalf of other class members. Your ability to share in any recovery is not dependent on your serving as lead plaintiff. If you choose not to take action, you may remain an absent class member.

According to the complaint, defendants failed to disclose to investors that (i) Hertz downplayed the financial impact of the vehicles’ depreciation and/or overstated its ability to track and manage the vehicles’ depreciation; (ii) demand for Hertz’s electric vehicles (“EVs”) was not as strong as defendants led investors to believe; (iii) Hertz had too many vehicles, particularly electric vehicles, in its fleet to remain profitable; and (iv) Hertz would likely incur significant losses upon the sale of both its internal combustion engine (“ICE”) vehicles and its electric vehicles.

On April 25, 2024, Hertz announced its first quarter 2024 results, including adjusted diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) of -$1.28 for the quarter, well below the consensus estimate of -$0.43 and far below the adjusted diluted EPS of $0.39 the Company achieved in the same period last year. In discussing these results, Hertz announced that vehicle depreciation increased $588 million, or $339 per share, in the quarter, primarily due to deterioration in estimated residual values ​​and disposal losses on internal combustion engine vehicles compared to earnings in the prior year quarter. The Company also announced that of the $339 per share increase, $119 was attributable to electric vehicles held for sale. Hertz also reported a $195 million vehicle depreciation charge to write down to fair value the electric vehicles held for sale that were still in inventory at the end of the quarter and to account for capital losses on electric vehicles sold during the same period.

On this news, Hertz’s stock price fell $1.12 per share, or 19.31%, to close at $4.68 per share on April 25, 2024.
