Watching Hertz Global; Shares Spike Higher, Traders Circulate Analyst Comments Saying U.S. Bankruptcy Court Has Issued An Order That Assures The Potential $328M Make-Whole Payment Will Not Be Due Until October At The Earliest

General

'Supreme Court Seeks DOJ View on Hertz Bondholder Case'- Bloomberg

New ETF filings from VistaShares reveal plans to launch funds that track the top trades of Bill Ackman and Michael Burry, expanding on the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/etfs/new-etfs/25/03/44196788/exclusive-vistashares-launches-warren-buffett-inspired-etf-filling-a-gap-in-the-market-says-ceo">firm&#8217;s existing ETFs</a> tied to Warren Buffett&#8216;s investments.
What Happened: VistaShares may not be a household name for ETFs yet, but that could soon change with ETFs that will allow investors ways to invest alongside three legendary figures.
New <a href="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1722388/000199937125006776/vistashares-485apos_052825.htm">filings </a>from the ETF company call for the following future ETFs to be launched:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>VistaShares Pershing Square Select ETF</li>
<li>VistaShares Target 15 Pershing Square Select Income ETF</li>
<li>VistaShares Scion Asset Management Select ETF</li>
<li>VistaShares Target 15 Scion Asset Management Select Income ETF</li>
<li>VistaShares Duquesne Select ETF</li>
<li>VistaShares Target 15 Duquesne Select Income ETF</li>
<li>VistaShares Berkshire Select ETF</li>
</ul>
The ETFs will copy the investments and portfolios of Bill Ackman (Pershing Square), Michael Burry (Scion), and Stanley Druckenmiller (Duquesne). The new Berkshire Select ETF will add to the company's portfolio, which already includes the VistaShares Target 15 Berkshire Select Income (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/OMAH#NYSE">OMAH</a>).
The new ETFs are actively managed and will trade on the New York Stock Exchange. The main select ETFs will seek to replicate the performance of the underlying index. The target 15 funds will provide more of an income component with investments in options and other items to attempt to maintain an annual income target of 15%. &nbsp;&nbsp;
According to the filing, the VistaShares Pershing Square Select ETF would hold up to 20 stocks that best represent Ackman&#8217;s fund&#8217;s publicly disclosed holdings.

Why It's Important: The existing Berkshire fund from VistaShares has attracted over $200 million in assets and is popular with investors, likely leading to the launch of the new ETFs.
One item investors will have to decide before investing in the ETFs is that 13Fs from the likes of Ackman, Burry, Druckenmiller, and Buffett only have to be filed once a quarter, and the holdings may be different than what's reported. The stocks owned may have already increased in value between the time the investment management bought the stock and the time the transaction was disclosed.
Retail investors enjoy copying well-known investors with proven track records, and new products based on these names could offer excitement in the ETF space.
Ackman's most recent 13F filing <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/management/25/05/45456642/bill-ackman-loads-up-on-uber-dumps-nike-in-major-q1-portfolio-rebalance">showed several big changes</a>, including swapping out Nike Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>) stock for options and taking a position in Uber Technologies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>) of more than 30 million shares. Ackman increased positions in Hertz Global Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HTZ#NASDAQ">HTZ</a>) and Alphabet Inc Class A (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) shares during the first quarter.
At the end of the first quarter, these were the top holdings in the Pershing Square fund:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Uber: 19%</li>
<li>Brookfield Corporation: 18%</li>
<li>Restaurant Brands International (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QSR#NYSE">QSR</a>): 13%</li>
<li>Howard Hughes Holdings (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HHH#NYSE">HHH</a>): 12%</li>
<li>Chipotle Mexican Grill (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMG#NYSE">CMG</a>): 9.1%</li>
</ul>
The latest 13F filing comes as Ackman is trying to&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45401638/howard-hughes-rises-nearly-3-in-pre-market-as-bill-ackman-exits-from-universal-music-groups-board-to-prioritize-new-investments" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">buy control of&nbsp;</a>Howard Hughes and turn it into a diversified holding company to copy the conglomerate style of legendary investor&nbsp;Warren Buffett.
While investors could buy and hold the stocks that Ackman and others disclose they own each quarter, ETFs like this could take some of the legwork out. The inclusion of options, swaps, and other investing methods looks to generate additional income alongside any future gains from the legendary investors.

New ETFs Let Investors Mirror Buffett, Ackman, Burry's Top Stock Trades

Editor&#8217;s Note: This article has been updated to reflect that Pershing Square converted its Nike stock into call options, maintaining exposure
Bill Ackman could have a new love for the automotive sector with a new investment made in the first quarter and an added position to a stake from the fourth quarter of 2024 that was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44878275/billionare-investor-bill-ackman-posts-hertz-investment-thesis-proposes-av-fleet-partnership-with-uber">revealed in April.</a>
Here's a look at Ackman's investment holdings in Pershing Square as of March 31.
First Quarter Changes: Ackman and Pershing Square unveiled a new stake in Uber Technologies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>) in the first quarter with a position of more than 30 million shares. The stake is now the largest holding the Pershing Square portfolio and comes with the investor making several recent moves to his investment strategy.
Ackman increased his stake in Hertz Global Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HTZ#NASDAQ">HTZ</a>) in the first quarter with the <a href="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1336528/000117266125002315/0001172661-25-002315-index.html">filing </a>showing an 18% increase.
Ackman's stake in Hertz was unveiled via a tweet and an updated SEC filing in April. A 12.7 million share purchase was originally kept from the fourth-quarter holdings document due to a request for confidentiality.
Here were the other increased stakes in the quarter:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Brookfield Corporation: +18%</li>
<li>Alphabet Inc Class A (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>): +11%</li>
</ul>
Pershing Square lowered its investments in the following stocks in the first quarter:
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Hilton Worldwide Holdings (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HLT#NYSE">HLT</a>): -45%</li>
<li>Google Class C (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>): -16%</li>
<li>Chipotle Mexican Grill (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMG#NYSE">CMG</a>): -13%</li>
<li>Canadian Pacific (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CP#NYSE">CP</a>): decreased by less than 1%</li>
</ul>
One notable move in the quarter was Pershing Square&#8217;s conversion of its 18.8 million Nike shares into over-the-counter call options, maintaining a similar economic exposure.

<li>Uber: 19%</li>

<li>Restaurant Brands International (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QSR#NYSE">QSR</a>): 13%</li>

<li>Hertz: 0.5%</li>
</ul>
The latest 13F filing comes as Ackman is trying to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45401638/howard-hughes-rises-nearly-3-in-pre-market-as-bill-ackman-exits-from-universal-music-groups-board-to-prioritize-new-investments">buy control of </a>Howard Hughes and turn it into a diversified holding company to copy the conglomerate style of legendary investor Warren Buffett.

Bill Ackman Loads Up On Uber In Major Q1 Portfolio Rebalance (CORRECTED)

Susquehanna analyst Christopher Stathoulopoulos maintains Hertz Global Holdings (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HTZ#NASDAQ">HTZ</a>) with a Neutral and raises the price target from $4.45 to $5.

Susquehanna Maintains Neutral on Hertz Global Holdings, Raises Price Target to $5

JPMorgan analyst Ryan Brinkman reiterated the Underweight rating on Hertz Global Holdings, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HTZ#NASDAQ">HTZ</a>)<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/HTZ/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener"> on Wednesday</a>.
Brinkman suggests that while rental car firms like Hertz may have structurally enhanced earnings through better pricing strategies and partnerships with companies such as American Express Global Business Travel, Tripadvisor, Uber and Carvana, previous forecasts likely overestimated the durability of company-specific earnings drivers.
Instead, much of the recent strength appears to have stemmed from temporary cyclical tailwinds — namely unusually low fleet depreciation and elevated pricing — which have now largely faded.

Although the stock may still look undervalued based on normalized earnings, Brinkman doesn&#8217;t foresee Hertz reaching those levels until after 2026.
Additionally, the company is expected to generate negative free cash flow in 2024 and 2025, limiting its ability to repurchase shares at current lower prices.
Hertz also faces high leverage, refinancing risks, and potential legal costs related to its past bankruptcy following a recent unfavorable court ruling, the analyst writes.
On Tuesday, the rental car company posted first-quarter revenue of $1.81 billion, below the $2 billion analyst consensus, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45388163/hertz-global-shares-are-plunging-following-q1-earnings-miss-whats-driving-the-sell-off" rel="noreferrer noopener">representing a 13% year-over-year decline</a>. The company also reported a first-quarter adjusted loss of $1.12 per share, versus an expected loss of 97 cents per share.
Brinkman notes that Hertz&#8217;s first-quarter fiscal 2025 results highlighted continued progress on cost efficiency initiatives, including partnerships with tech firms aimed at improving both customer experience and operational productivity.
These efforts include enhancements to its revenue management system and the deployment of AI tools for vehicle inspection and pricing optimization.
Management also reaffirmed its expectations for the progression of EBITDA through the year, the analyst writes.
HTZ Price Action: Hertz shares are trading lower by 2.88% to $5.60 at publication on Wednesday.

12 Industrials Stocks Moving In Tuesday's After-Market Session

Hertz Global Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HTZ#NASDAQ">HTZ</a>) shares are trading lower Tuesday after the company reported disappointing first-quarter financial results that missed both revenue <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/05/45363616/hertz-stock-hits-the-brakes-following-q1-earnings-results-key-details-from-the-report">and earnings expectations</a>.
What To Know: The rental car company posted first-quarter revenue of $1.81 billion, below the $2 billion analyst consensus, representing a 13% year-over-year decline. The company also reported a first-quarter adjusted loss of $1.12 per share, versus an expected loss of 97 cents per share.
The revenue shortfall was primarily attributed to an 8% reduction in fleet size compared to the prior year. Hertz said the move was part of a strategic shift to run a leaner operation amid macroeconomic uncertainty, while simultaneously capitalizing on strong residual vehicle values to rotate older vehicles out of its fleet. The company highlighted that more than 70% of its U.S. rental fleet is now less than 12 months old.
Vehicle depreciation fell 45% year-over-year and Hertz noted that its 2025 model year cars are already meeting a target of less than $300 per unit in depreciation for the second quarter. Despite the near-term challenges, the company reaffirmed that it remains on track to reach positive adjusted corporate EBITDA by the third quarter of 2025.
Looking ahead, Hertz acknowledged signs of moderating demand across corporate, government and U.S. inbound travel segments. However, the company noted that forward bookings for leisure rentals are up on a year-over-year basis. The company plans to enter the summer season with a relatively tight fleet to take advantage of favorable residual value conditions.
While shares dropped sharply on the earnings miss, Hertz stock remains up approximately 60% year-to-date, boosted in part by renewed investor interest last month after Bill Ackman's Pershing Square Capital Management disclosed a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/04/44889381/ackman-bets-big-on-hertz-as-tariff-tailwinds-boost-fleet-value-investing-is-risky-there-are-no-guarantees-of-a-successful-outcome">significant stake</a> in the company.
HTZ Price Action: <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/htz">Hertz shares</a> were down 15.1% at $5.88 at the time of publication Tuesday, according to <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.

Hertz Global Holdings shares are trading lower after the company reported worse-than-expected Q1 financial results.

Hertz Global Holdings Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HTZ#NASDAQ">HTZ</a>) reported financial results for the first quarter after the market close on Monday. Here&#8217;s a rundown <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/n45362896/hertz-reports-significant-progress-towards-key-milestones-for-first-quarter-2025">of the report</a>.
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Q1 Revenue: $1.81 billion, versus <a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/htz/earnings">estimates</a> of $2 billion</li>
</ul>
<ul class="wp-block-list">
<li>Q1 Adjusted Loss: $1.12, versus estimates of 97 cents</li>
</ul>
Total revenue declined 13% on a year-over-year basis, primarily driven by reduced fleet capacity, which was down 8% year-over-year. The company said its fleet rotation is delivering results, with vehicle depreciation down 45% year-over-year. 
Hertz said it&#8217;s targeting less than $300 of depreciation per unit in the second quarter, with model year 2025 vehicles already achieving this target. The company noted that more than 70% of its core U.S. rental fleet is 12 months old or newer. 
Hertz ended the quarter with $1.2 billion of corporate liquidity and said it remains on track to achieve positive adjusted corporate EBITDA by the third quarter of 2025. 
&#8220;Given macro demand uncertainties, it is intentionally running a tighter fleet year-over-year while capitalizing on the strong residual value environment to accelerate the rotation of its remaining older vehicles,&#8221; the company said in the earnings release.
&#8220;Looking forward, the Company sees both macroeconomic uncertainty and opportunity. The Company has recently seen demand moderate for corporate, government and U.S. inbound segments while forward bookings for Hertz leisure are up year-over-year. The Company intends to remain prudent in its fleet management, entering the summer with a relatively tight fleet, and thereby leveraging rising residual values.&#8221;
Hertz executives will further discuss the quarter on a conference call with investors and analysts at 9 a.m. ET Tuesday morning.
HTZ Price Action:<a href="http://benzinga.com/quote/htz"> Hertz shares</a> were down 3.60% after hours, trading at $6.69 at the time of publication Monday, per <a href="http://pro.benzinga.com">Benzinga Pro</a>.
Hertz shares surged last month after Bill Ackman's&nbsp;Pershing Square Capital Management reported a sizable stake in the company. Despite Monday&#8217;s after-hours decline, the stock is still up approximately 89% year-to-date.
