Avis Budget Group reported disappointing financial results for the fourth quarter of 2025, missing analyst estimates on both top and bottom lines. The company's revenue reached $2.66 billion, falling short of the $2.75 billion expected by Wall Street. More concerningly, adjusted EBITDA plummeted to near-zero levels, a sharp contrast to the previously guided $157 million. This performance marks the third consecutive year that the car rental giant has failed to meet annual revenue consensus targets. The weak results were primarily attributed to underperformance in the Americas region and a substantial asset impairment charge. Investors are reacting cautiously as the company struggles to maintain profitability despite some recovery in its international segments.
