CAR-AVIS BUDGET GROUP INC-Selling at their 52 week low of 25.23, they are down 58% on the year. Short interest is 21.48%. P/E is at 7.81. Cap is 2.53b. EPS would be about 3.23. Analysts are neutral. Book is at 5.94 per share. EPS growth this year is supposed to be at 12.3. In 3-5, 17.3 Book is growing at 24.54. Return on equity is at 57%. Debt is insane at 2250% to equity…makes sense given their industry. No dividend. Earnings look pretty consistent with one huge quarter per year. Return on equity is like 25 on average. So let’s say book is at 36.78 with 20% return on equity, we could be looking at EPS of 7.356, and with a p/e of 10, we could see a price of 73.56. I’d buy em at 18. They are a risk.
HTZ-HERTZ GLOBAL HOLDINGS INC-Trades at 9.72, their 52 week low. P/E is non existent. Cap is 4.32b. Short interest is at 7.27. Analysts are very bearish. Book is at 5.27. Growth this year is at 46%. Next 3-5 is at 25%. Book growth is at 3.4 last 3-5. No dividend. Return on equity is at a negative figure. Debt is at 710.39. Insiders own 4.3. Return on equity is at wacky figures, I’ll call it 0. We’ll go with a 2% growth figure here, with a 25% pop. That gives us book of 6.42, and perhaps EPS of 1.28, and with a 10 p/e we can see a price of 12.8. I’d buy at 3.15. I’m sure this stock will pop, but whatever, they are hugely speculative.
