Avis Budget Extends Multi-Year Agreement With Maple Leaf
Read MoreHide Full Article
Avis Budget Group, Inc.’s (CAR - Free Report) premium brand Avis and Toronto-based Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment (MLSE) have extended their ongoing partnership on vehicle rental services.
Through a renewed multi-year agreement, Avis will continue as the official vehicle rental partner of the Toronto Maple Leafs and Toronto FC. The mobility brand will be able to advertise products and services to numerous sports fanatics as well as tourists of Scotiabank Arena and BMO Field. Program elements encompass camera-visible signage during games, arena signage, events, in-market advertising and promotional opportunities.
Beth Kinerk, senior vice president, sales, Avis Budget Group, stated, “Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment has been a great partner and has allowed us to engage customers, drive rentals and generate new business opportunities. We’re excited to renew our agreement with them and build upon our customer engagement efforts in Canada.”
We believe that extension of the partnership will help Avis boost the Americas segment that comprises all the operations in North America, South America and the Caribbean, including Budget Truck Rental. Performance of this segment was decent in the last reported quarter. The segment's revenues, contributing 68% to total revenues, inched up 1.6% year over year to $1.6 billion.
The long-term expected earnings per share (three to five years) growth rate for Broadridge, WEX and NV5 Global is 10%, 15% and 20%, respectively.

Demand could soar from almost nothing to $42 billion by 2025. Reports suggest it could save 10 million lives per decade which could in turn save $200 billion in U.S. healthcare costs. A bonus Zacks Special Report names this breakthrough and the 5 best stocks to exploit it. Like Apple in 2007, these companies are already strong and coiling for potential mega-gains.
