Event Summary

The Gross Law Firm has issued a notice to shareholders of Avis Budget Group regarding a class action lawsuit. The complaint alleges that Avis Budget Group made materially false and misleading statements and failed to disclose its plan to significantly accelerate its fleet rotation in the fourth quarter of 2024. This acceleration allegedly shortened the useful life of most vehicles in the Americas segment, reducing their recoverable value and forcing Avis Budget Group to recognize billions in impairment charges and substantial losses. The class period for the lawsuit is from February 16, 2024, to February 10, 2025, and the deadline for shareholders to seek lead plaintiff appointment is June 24, 2025.
