“We entered 2018 a stronger company than one-year ago with positive underlying revenue momentum as our strategies to enhance fleet, customer service and brand value are gaining traction,” said Kathryn Marinello, president and chief executive officer of Hertz.
“At the same time, we have fortified our leadership team and are managing our assets more effectively.
“The early progress is motivating for our employees and being recognised by our customers.
“But we still have work to do, reflecting the significant opportunities in front of us, as we position our business for sustainable, long-term growth.”
