Investing.com — Ian Zaffino (Operheimer analyst) initiated coverage on Hertz Global Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:) Wednesday. He received an outperform rating along with a $31 price goal.

StreetInsider quotes the analyst saying Hertz’s bankruptcy “is in the rearview”

Hertz shares rose 2.22% in trading after the rating. After closing Wednesday’s session, they were at $24.43. 

Zaffino said that Hertz represents an intriguing post-bankruptcy equity because it has a significantly improved cost structure, a lower-levered financial balance, and demonstrates a greater sense of competitive control.

According to the analyst, there were three main reasons why the rating was given. The analyst cited three reasons for the rating: Its potential to nearly double pre-Covid earnings without interest, taxes and amortization margins; forward-looking management and its $2B share buyback program.

“Management has always been forward-oriented, as we can point out recent agreements signed with Tesla (NASDAQ), Carvana (NYSE :).”), and Uber (NYSE).

According to the Oppenheimer analyst, “We think our target is achievable, as Hertz continues rational, enjoys structurally higher margins and repurchases stocks and as demand returns,” he stated.
