PART I—FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Item 1. Financial Statements

INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS' REPORT

To the Board of Directors and Stockholder of
Avis Group Holdings, Inc.
Parsippany, New Jersey

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated condensed balance sheet of Avis Group Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries (successor to Avis Rent A Car System, Inc. and subsidiaries, Avis Fleet Leasing and Management Corp., and subsidiaries and Reserve Claims Management Co., collectively the "Predecessor Companies") (collectively referred to as the "Company") as of JuneSeptember 30, 2002, and the related consolidated condensed statements of operations and cash flows for the three and sixnine month period ended JuneSeptember 30, 2002, the period March 1, 2001 (Date of Acquisition) to JuneSeptember 30, 2001, and as to the Predecessor Companies for the period January 1, 2001 to February 28, 2001 and the related consolidated condensed statement of cash flows for the nine month period ended September 30, 2002, the period March 1, 2001 (Date of Acquisition) to September 30, 2001, and as to the Predecessor Companies for the period January 1, 2001 to February 28, 2001. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.

We conducted our review in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures to financial data and of making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to such consolidated condensed financial statements for them to be in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have previously audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2001, and the related consolidated statements of operations, common stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the period March 1, 2001 (Date of Acquisition) to December 31, 2001 and as to the Predecessor Companies, the consolidated related statements of operations, common stockholders' equity and cash flows for the period January 1, 2001 to February 28, 2001 (not presented herein); and in our report dated January 23, 2002, we expressed an unqualified opinion (and included an explanatory paragraph relating to a change in accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities) on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2001 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Avis Group Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unless otherwise noted, all amounts are in thousands)

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

        The accompanying unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements include the accounts and transactions of Avis Group Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, "the Company").

        Avis Group Holdings, Inc. is a holding company that operates through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Avis Rent A Car System, Inc., the second largest general use car rental brand in the world. On March 1, 2001, all the Company's common stock not then-ownedthen- owned by Cendant Corporation ("Cendant") was acquired by a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cendant for approximately $994 million with the Company emerging as the surviving legal entity. Accordingly, the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements as of and for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2002, for the period March 1, 2001 (Date of Acquisition) to JuneSeptember 30, 2001 and as of December 31, 2001 include the financial statements of Avis Group Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries. The Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements for the two months ended February 28, 2001 include the financial statements of the Company and its former fleet management and fuel card businesses, which are presented as a discontinued operation (the "Predecessor Companies").

        In management's opinion, the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements contain all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of interim results. The results of operations reported for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire year or any subsequent interim period. In addition, management is required to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported and related disclosures. Estimates, by their nature, are based on judgment and available information. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. The Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K dated March 29, 2002.

        Certain reclassifications have been made to prior period amounts to conform to the current period presentation.

        Pursuant to certain covenant requirements in an indenture under which the Company issued debt, the Company continues to operate and maintain its status as a separate public reporting entity.

        Assets used by the Company to generate revenue are classified as assets under management programs. Funding for such assets is primarily provided by secured financing arrangements, which are classified as liabilities under management programs. Revenues generated from these assets are used, in part, to repay the interest and principal associated with the debt. Cash inflows and outflows relating to the generation and acquisition of assets and the principal debt repayment or financing of such assets are classified as activities of the Company's management programs.

        Restricted cash includes cash and investments that are not readily available for normal Company disbursements and which have been set aside as required under the Company's debt covenants. The restricted cash balance at December 31, 2001 was held as collateral for outstanding vehicle debt that was not callable and, therefore, could not be immediately repaid. During 2002, the restricted cash was depleted through the normal purchase of vehicles. These vehicles have replaced the restricted cash as collateral for outstanding vehicle debt.

        On January 1, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets", in its entirety. In connection with the adoption of SFAS No. 142, the Company has not amortized any goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets during 2002. Prior to the adoption of SFAS No. 142, all intangible assets were amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated periods to be benefited. Subsequent toTherefore, the adoption,results of operations for 2001 reflect the Company did not amortize anyamortization of goodwill or indefinite-livedand indefinite lived intangible assets, while the results of operations for 2002 do not reflect such amortization (see Note 5—Intangible Assets for a pro forma disclosure depicting the Company's results of operations during 2002.2001 after applying the non-amortization provisions of SFAS No. 142).

        In connection with the implementation of SFAS No. 142, the Company is required to assess goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for impairment annually, or more frequently if circumstances indicate impairment may have occurred. The Company reviewed the carrying value of all its goodwill and other intangible assets by comparing such amounts to their fair value and determined that the carrying amounts of such assets did not exceed their respective fair values. Accordingly, the initial implementation of this standard did not result in a charge and, as such, did not impact the Company's results of operations during 2002. The Company will perform its annual impairment test during fourth quarter of 2002.

        As permitted by SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation," the Company currently measures its stock-based compensation using the intrinsic value approach under Accounting Principles Board ("APB") Opinion No. 25. Accordingly, the Company does not recognize compensation expense upon the issuance of its stock options because the option terms are fixed and the exercise price equals the market price of the underlying Cendant common stock on the grant date. The Company complies with the provision of SFAS No. 123 by providing pro forma disclosures of net income and related per share data giving consideration to the fair value method provisions of SFAS No. 123.

7        On January 1, 2003, the Company plans to adopt the fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation provisions of SFAS No. 123, which is considered by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") to be the preferable accounting method for stock-based employee compensation. Subsequent to adoption of the fair value method provisions of SFAS No. 123, the Company will expense all future employee stock options (and similar awards) over the vesting period based on the fair value of the award on the date of grant. The Company does not expect its results of operations to be impacted in the current year from this prospective change in accounting policy based on the current accounting guidance related to this adoption, which is currently under review by the FASB.

        The impact of recording compensation expense at fair value in prior periods have been included in the pro forma disclosures, as required by SFAS No. 123, provided in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on March 29, 2002. Prior period compensation expense is not necessarily indicative of future compensation expense that would be recorded by the Company upon its adoption of the fair value method provisions of SFAS No. 123. Future expense may vary based upon factors such as the number of options granted by the Company and the then-current fair market value of such options.

8



        During April 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 145, "Rescission of FASB Statements No. 4, 44, and 64, Amendment of FASB Statement No. 13, and Technical Corrections." Such standard requires any gain or loss on extinguishments of debt to be presented as a component of continuing operations (unless specific criteria is met) whereas SFAS No. 4 required that such gains and losses be classified as an extraordinary item in determining net income. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 145, the Company expects to reclassify its extraordinary gains or losses on the extinguishments of debt to continuing operations. The Company will adopt these provisions on January 1, 2003.

        During June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." Such standard requires costs associated with exit or disposal activities (including restructurings), to be recognized when the costs are incurred, rather than at a date of commitment to an exit or disposal plan. SFAS No. 146 nullifies Emerging Issues Task Force ("EITF") Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." Under SFAS No. 146, a liability related to an exit or disposal activity is not recognized until such liability has actually been incurred whereas under EITF Issue No. 94-3 a liability was recognized at the time of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. The provisions of this standard are effective for disposal activities initiated after December 31, 2002.

        As of JuneSeptember 30, 2002, the Company's asset-backed funding arrangements under the AESOP Funding program provided for the issuance of up to $4.14$4.69 billion of debt. Amounts outstanding under the AESOP Funding program approximated $3.85$4 billion. As of JuneSeptember 30, 2002, the Company had an additional $291$690 million of availability under the AESOP Funding program. In addition, the Company had other outstanding vehicle debt of approximately $265$262 million and availability of approximately $112$127 million under other funding arrangements as of JuneSeptember 30, 2002.

        On July 25, 2002, the Company issued $750 million of rental car asset backed notes under its AESOP Funding Program. Approximately $500 million of such notes bear interest at a fixed rate of 3.85% and $250 million of such notes bear interest at a floating rate of LIBOR plus 29 basis points.

        In September 2002, the Company issued $110 million of variable funding rental car asset-backed notes under the AESOP Funding program and repaid all amounts outstanding in commercial paper notes.

6.8. Commitments and Contingencies

        The Company is involved in pending litigation in the usual course of business. In the opinion of management, such litigation will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

99. Stock Plans

        During third quarter 2002, the Cendant's Board of Directors accelerated the vesting of certain options previously granted with exercise prices greater than or equal to $15.1875. Cendant's senior executive officers were not eligible for this modification. In connection with such action, approximately

12



3 million options, which were scheduled to become exercisable substantially between September 2002 and January 2004, became exercisable as of August 27, 2002. In addition, the post-employment exercise period for the modified options was reduced from one year to thirty days. However, if the employee remains employed by the Company through the date on which the option was originally scheduled to become vested, the post-employment exercise period will be one year.

        In accordance with the provisions of the FASB Interpretation No. 44, "Accounting for Certain Transactions Involving Stock Compensation (an Interpretation of APB Opinion No. 25)," there is no charge associated with this modification since none of the modified options had intrinsic value because the market price of the underlying Cendant common stock on August 27, 2002 was less than the exercise price of the modified options.

Item 2. Management's Narrative Analysis of the Results of Operations

        The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements and accompanying Notes thereto included elsewhere herein. Unless otherwise noted, all dollar amounts are in thousands and presented before taxes (as appropriate).

        We are the second largest general use car rental brand in the world. On March 1, 2001, all of our outstanding common stock not then-owned by Cendant Corporation ("Cendant") was acquired by a subsidiary of PHH Corporation ("PHH"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cendant, for approximately $994 million and we emerged as the surviving legal entity. At such time, our fleet management and fuel card businesses were sold to PHH and, therefore, are presented as a discontinued operation in the accompanying Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements. Accordingly, we are now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Cendant.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

        The acquisition of us by Cendant resulted in significant changes to the valuation of certain of our assets, liabilities and stockholder's equity. The periods prior to the acquisition have been designated "Predecessor Companies" and the period subsequent to the acquisition has been designated "Successor Company". The results of the Predecessor Companies and the Successor Company have been combined for the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2001 since we believe that separate discussions for the two months ended February 28, 2001 and the fourseven months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2001 are not meaningful in terms of our operating results or comparisons to the prior period.

Three Months Ended JuneSeptember 30, 2002 vs. Three Months Ended JuneSeptember 30, 2001

        Our comparative results of operations, excluding our former fleet management and fuel card businesses, comprised the following:

        Non-vehicle interest, net decreased 25.8%13.6% primarily due to a decrease in interest rates and the repaymenttermination of all amounts outstanding under aour revolving credit facility duringin September 2001. Such facility was replaced with intercompany funding from Cendant at variable interest rates, which have decreased in 2002.

        As a result of the above-mentioned items, income from continuing operations increased $12.9$60.6 million or 130%, in the secondthird quarter of 2002.

Forward-Looking Statements

        Forward-looking statements in our public filings or other public statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements were based on various factors and were derived utilizing numerous important assumptions and other important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include the information concerning our future financial performance, business strategy, projected plans and objectives.

        Statements preceded by, followed by or that otherwise include the words "believes", "expects", "anticipates", "intends", "project", "estimates", "plans", "may increase", "may fluctuate" and similar expressions or future or conditional verbs such as "will", "should", "would", "may" and "could" are generally forwardlooking in nature and not historical facts. You should understand that the following important factors and assumptions could affect our future results and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in such forward-looking statements:

26


20



        Other factors and assumptions not identified above were also involved in the derivation of these forward looking statements, and the failure of such other assumptions to be realized as well as other factors may also cause actual results to differ materially from those projected. Most of these factors are difficult to predict accurately and are generally beyond our control.

        You should consider the areas of risk described above in connection with any forward-looking statements that may be made by us and our businesses generally. Except for our ongoing obligations to disclose material information under the federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to release publicly any revisions to any forward-looking statements, to report events or to report the occurrence of unanticipated events unless required by law. For any forward-looking statements contained in any document, we claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

Item 3. Quantitative And Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risks

        As previously discussed in our 2001 Annual Report on Form 10-K, we assess our market risk based on changes in interest rates utilizing a sensitivity analysis. The sensitivity analysis measures the potential loss in earnings, fair values, and cash flows based on a hypothetical 10% change (increase and decrease) in interest rates. We used JuneSeptember 30, 2002 market rates to perform a sensitivity analysis separately for each of our market risk exposures. The estimates assume instantaneous, parallel shifts in interest rate yield curves. We have determined, through such analyses, that the impact of a 10% change in interest on our earnings, fair values and cash flows would not be material.

22Item 4. Controls and Procedures

(a)
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.    The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Senior Vice President and Controller have evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-14(c) and 15d-14(c) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) as of a date within 90 days prior to the filing date of this quarterly report (the "Evaluation Date"). Based on such evaluation, such officers have concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in alerting them on a timely basis to material information relating to the Company (including its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be included in the Company's reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act.

(b)
Changes in Internal Controls.    Since the Evaluation Date, there have not been any significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect such controls.
