There are a lot of things going wrong with this company. Their Gross Profit Margins are terrible with almost every other quarter ending in the red. The company has racked up huge sums of debt secured by declining assets. This company is overvalued at $15.65 and I belief should be sitting under $5. I believe Avis’s only value will be as an acquisition candidate down the road and the price will be significantly less than $15. I would short this stock and look for the price to plummet in the next year with the release of current financials.
