Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Background | Background Herc Holdings Inc. ("Herc Holdings" or the "Company") is one of the leading equipment rental suppliers with approximately 275 locations as of December 31, 2017 , principally in North America. The Company conducts substantially all of its operations through subsidiaries, including Herc Rentals Inc. ("Herc"). Operations are conducted under the Herc Rentals brand in the United States and under the Hertz Equipment Rental brand in Canada and other international locations. With over 50 years of experience, we are a full-line equipment rental supplier offering a broad portfolio of equipment for rent. In addition to our principal business of equipment rental, we sell used equipment and contractor supplies such as construction consumables, tools, small equipment and safety supplies; provide repair, maintenance, equipment management services and safety training to certain of our customers; offer equipment re-rental services and provide on-site support to our customers; and provide ancillary services such as equipment transport, rental protection, cleaning, refueling and labor. Our classic fleet includes aerial, earthmoving, material handling, trucks and trailers, air compressors, compaction and lighting. Our equipment rental business is supported by ProSolutions TM our industry-specific solutions-based services which includes pumping solutions, power generation, climate control, remediation and restoration, and studio and production equipment, and our ProContractor professional grade tools. On June 30, 2016 , the Company, in its previous form as the holding company of both the existing equipment rental operations as well as the former vehicle rental operations (in its form prior to the Spin-Off, "Hertz Holdings"), completed a spin-off (the "Spin-Off") of its global vehicle rental business through a dividend to stockholders of all of the issued and outstanding common stock of Hertz Rental Car Holding Company, Inc., which was re-named Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. ("New Hertz"). New Hertz is an independent public company that trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "HTZ" and continues to operate its global vehicle rental business through its operating subsidiaries including The Hertz Corporation ("THC"). The Company changed its name to Herc Holdings Inc. on June 30, 2016 , and trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "HRI." The Company continues to operate its global equipment rental business through its operating subsidiaries, including Herc. For accounting purposes, due to the relative significance of New Hertz to Hertz Holdings, New Hertz was considered the spinnor or divesting entity in the Spin-Off and Herc Holdings was considered the spinnee or divested entity. As a result, despite the legal form of the transaction, New Hertz was the "accounting successor" to Hertz Holdings. Under the accounting rules, the historical financial information of New Hertz is required to reflect the financial information of Hertz Holdings, as if New Hertz spun off Herc Holdings in the Spin-Off. In contrast, the historical financial information of Herc Holdings, for the year ended December 31, 2015 and the first half of 2016, reflects the financial information of the equipment rental business and certain parent legal entities of Herc as historically operated as part of Hertz Holdings, as if Herc Holdings was a stand-alone company for such periods. The historical financial information of Herc Holdings presented in these consolidated financial statements is not necessarily indicative of what Herc Holdings’ financial position or results of operations actually would have been had Herc Holdings operated as a separate, independent company for all periods presented. These consolidated financial statements consist of Herc Holdings, the top level holding company with no material assets or stand-alone operations, and Herc and its consolidated subsidiaries. |

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements | Basis of Presentation and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Basis of Presentation The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements include depreciation of revenue earning equipment, pension and postretirement benefits, the recoverability of long-lived assets, useful lives and impairment of long-lived tangible and intangible assets including goodwill and trade name, accounting for income taxes, valuation of stock-based compensation, reserves for litigation and other contingencies, allowances for receivables and, prior to the Spin-Off, allocated general corporate expenses from THC, among others. Since the Spin-Off occurred on June 30, 2016 , the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 (this "Report") represent the carve-out financial results for the first six months of 2016, including Spin-Off impacts, and the actual results for the last six months of 2016 and all of 2017. Amounts included for the year ended December 31, 2015 represent carve-out financial results. Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Herc Holdings and its wholly owned subsidiaries. In the event that the Company is a primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity, the assets, liabilities and results of operations of the variable interest entity are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements. The Company accounts for its investments in joint ventures using the equity method when it has significant influence but not control and is not the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Transactions between the Company and THC and its affiliates prior to the Spin-Off are herein referred to as "related party" or "affiliated" transactions. Effective with the Spin-Off on June 30, 2016 , all then-existing transactions with THC and its affiliates were settled and paid in full. Effective upon the Spin-Off, the Company entered into certain agreements with New Hertz, including a transition services agreement ("TSA"). See Note 21 , " Arrangements with New Hertz " for further information. For periods prior to the Spin-Off, the consolidated financial statements include net interest expense on loans receivable and payable to affiliates and expense allocations for certain corporate functions historically performed by THC, including, but not limited to, general corporate expenses related to finance, legal, information technology, human resources, communications, employee benefits and incentives, insurance and stock-based compensation. These expenses were allocated to the Company on the basis of direct usage when identifiable, with the remainder allocated on the basis of revenues, operating expenses, headcount or other relevant measures. Management believes the assumptions underlying the consolidated financial statements, including the assumptions regarding the allocation of corporate expenses from THC, are reasonable. Nevertheless, the consolidated financial statements may not include all of the expenses that would have been incurred had the Company been a stand-alone company during the periods presented and may not reflect the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows had the Company been a stand-alone company during the periods presented. Actual costs that would have been incurred if the Company had been a stand-alone company would have depended on multiple factors, including organizational structure and strategic decisions made in various areas, including information technology and infrastructure. For additional information related to costs allocated to the Company by THC prior to the Spin-Off, see Note 20 , " Related Party Transactions ." Stock Split On June 30, 2016 , the Company effected a 1-for-15 reverse stock split. The reverse stock split reduced the number of authorized shares of common stock and preferred stock to 133.3 million and 13.3 million , respectively. All share data and per share amounts have been retroactively adjusted for the reverse stock split in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for all periods presented. The retroactive adjustments resulted in the reclassification of $4.3 million from common stock to additional paid-in capital on the consolidated statements of changes in equity at December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014. Reclassification of Prior Period Presentation Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported consolidated balance sheets, results of operations, equity or cash flows for any period presented. Correction of Errors During the first quarter of 2017, the Company identified an error related to its classification of certain restricted cash. Accordingly, the Company revised its consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2016 to correct the classification of $12.4 million from restricted cash to cash and cash equivalents as the cash was determined to be available for use in general operations. This correction impacted the consolidated statements of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2016 by decreasing cash used in investing activities by $3.4 million and increasing cash and cash equivalents at the beginning and end of the period by $9.0 million and $12.4 million , respectively. In addition, the Company corrected the classification of $9.0 million from restricted cash to cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2015 which impacted the consolidated statement of cash flows for the year ended December 31, 2015 by increasing cash used in investing activities by $0.1 million and increasing cash and cash equivalents at the beginning and end of the period by $9.1 million and $9.0 million , respectively. The Company assessed the materiality of the error from qualitative and quantitative perspectives and concluded the adjustments were not material to its previously issued annual and interim financial statements. There was no impact of this error on the consolidated statements of operations, consolidated statements of other comprehensive income (loss) or consolidated statement of equity for any period, including those presented in this Report. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less. Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents Restricted cash and cash equivalents includes cash and cash equivalents that are not readily available for the Company's normal disbursements. Historically, restricted cash and cash equivalents were restricted for the purchase of revenue earning equipment under the Company's Like-Kind Exchange Program ("LKE Program"). As a result of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the "2017 Tax Act"), the Company ceased its LKE Program and therefore reflects zero restricted cash as of December 31, 2017 . See "Income Taxes" below for additional information related to the LKE Program. Concentration of Credit Risk The Company's cash and cash equivalents are held in checking accounts, various investment grade institutional money market accounts or bank term deposits. Deposits held at banks may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. Generally, these deposits may be redeemed upon demand and are maintained with financial institutions with reputable credit and therefore bear minimal credit risk. The Company seeks to mitigate such risks by spreading the risk across multiple counterparties and monitoring the risk profiles of these counterparties. In addition, the Company has credit risk from financial instruments used in hedging activities. The Company limits its exposure relating to financial instruments by diversifying the financial instruments among various counterparties, which consist of major financial institutions. No single customer accounted for more than 3% of the Company’s equipment rental revenue during the years ended December 31, 2017 , 2016 and 2015 . As of December 31, 2017 and 2016 , no single customer accounted for more than 3% of accounts receivable. Receivables Receivables are stated net of allowances and represent credit extended to customers and manufacturers that satisfy defined credit criteria. The estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts is based on the Company's historical experience and its judgment as to the likelihood of ultimate collection. Actual receivables are written-off against the allowance for doubtful accounts when the Company determines the balance will not be collected. Estimates for future credit memos are based on historical experience and are reflected as reductions to revenue, while the provision for bad debt is reflected as a component of "Selling, general and administrative expenses" in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. Inventory Inventory is comprised of finished goods and consists of new equipment, supplies, tools, parts, fuel and related supply items. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined by inventory type on the average cost method. Revenue Earning Equipment Revenue earning equipment is stated at cost, net of related discounts, with holding periods ranging from two to 15 years. Generally, when revenue earning equipment is acquired, the Company estimates the period that it will hold the asset, primarily based on historical measures of the amount of rental activity (e.g. equipment usage) and the targeted age of equipment at the time of disposal. The Company also estimates the residual value of the applicable revenue earning equipment at the expected time of disposal. The residual value for rental equipment is affected by factors which include equipment age and amount of usage. Depreciation is recorded over the estimated holding period. Depreciation rates are reviewed on a quarterly basis based on management's ongoing assessment of present and estimated future market conditions, their effect on residual values at the time of disposal and the estimated holding periods. Market conditions for used equipment sales can also be affected by external factors such as the economy, natural disasters, fuel prices, supply of similar used equipment, the market price for similar new equipment and incentives offered by manufacturers of new equipment. These key factors are considered when estimating future residual values and assessing depreciation rates. As a result of this ongoing assessment, the Company makes periodic adjustments to depreciation rates of revenue earning equipment in response to changed market conditions. For certain equipment at or nearing the end of its useful life, the Company considers the option of refurbishing the equipment as an alternative to replacing it based upon the economics of each alternative. Refurbishment costs that extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized and amortized over the remaining useful life of the asset. Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the estimated useful lives of the related assets or leases, whichever is shorter. Useful lives are as follows: Buildings 8 to 33 years Service vehicles 3 to 13 years Machinery and equipment 1 to 15 years Computer equipment 1 to 5 years Furniture and fixtures 2 to 10 years Leasehold improvements The lesser of the economic life or the lease term The Company follows the practice of charging routine maintenance and repairs, including the cost of minor replacements, to maintenance expense. Costs of major replacements are capitalized and depreciated. Leases The Company leases certain property and equipment used in operations. If the lease is considered an operating lease, it is not recorded on the balance sheet and rent expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term. Certain property and equipment are held under capital leases. These assets are included in property and equipment and depreciated over the term of the lease. Rent expense is not recognized for a capital lease. Rather, rental payments under the lease are recognized as a reduction of the capital lease obligation and interest expense. In certain instances, the Company may sell property and enter into an arrangement to lease the property back from the landlord. In these instances, the Company performs a sale-leaseback analysis to determine if the assets can be removed from the balance sheet. If certain criteria are met, the Company recognizes the transaction as a sale, removes the assets from its balance sheet and reflects the future rental payments as rent expense. If the criteria for sale is not met, such as available repurchase options or continuing involvement with the property, the Company is considered the owner for accounting purposes. In these instances, the Company is precluded from derecognizing the assets from its balance sheet and will continue to depreciate the assets over the expected lease term. In conjunction with these arrangements, the Company records a financing obligation equal to the cash proceeds or fair market value of the assets received from the landlord. Rent payments for these properties are recognized as interest expense and a reduction of the financing obligation using the effective interest method. At the end of the lease term, including exercise of any renewal options, the net remaining financing obligation over the net carrying value of the fixed asset will be recognized as a non-cash gain on sale of the property. Public Liability and Property Damage The obligation for public liability and property damage on self-insured U.S. and international equipment represents an estimate for both reported accident claims not yet paid, and claims incurred but not yet reported. The related liabilities are recorded on a non-discounted basis. Reserve requirements are based on actuarial evaluations of historical accident claim experience and trends, as well as future projections of ultimate losses, expenses, premiums and administrative costs. The adequacy of the liability is regularly monitored based on evolving accident claim history and insurance-related state legislation changes. If the Company's estimates change or if actual results differ from these assumptions, the amount of the recorded liability is adjusted to reflect these results. Defined Benefit Pension Plans and Other Employee Benefits The Company's employee pension costs and obligations are developed from actuarial valuations. Inherent in these valuations are key assumptions, including discount rates, salary growth, long-term return on plan assets, retirement rates, mortality rates and other factors. The selection of assumptions is based on historical trends and known economic and market conditions at the time of valuation, as well as independent studies of trends performed by actuaries. However, actual results may differ substantially from the estimates that were based on the critical assumptions. The Company uses a December 31 measurement date for all of the plans. Actual results that differ from the Company's assumptions are accumulated and amortized over future periods and, therefore, generally affect its recognized expense in such future periods. While management believes that the assumptions used are appropriate, significant differences in actual experience or significant changes in assumptions would affect the Company's pension costs and obligations. The Company maintains reserves for employee medical claims, up to its insurance stop-loss limit, and workers' compensation claims. These are regularly evaluated and revised, as needed, based on a variety of information, including historical experience, actuarial estimates and current employee statistics. Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions Assets and liabilities of international subsidiaries whose functional currency is the local currency are translated at the rate of exchange in effect on the balance sheet date; income and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates throughout the year. The related translation adjustments are reflected in “Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)” in the equity section of the Company's consolidated balance sheets. Foreign currency gains and losses resulting from transactions are included in earnings. Financial Instruments The Company is exposed to a variety of market risks, including the effects of changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. The Company manages exposure to these market risks through ongoing processes to monitor the impact of market changes and, when deemed appropriate, through the use of financial instruments. Financial instruments are viewed as risk management tools and have not been used for speculative or trading purposes. The Company accounts for all derivatives in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires that they be recorded on the balance sheet as either assets or liabilities measured at their fair value. For financial instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments, the Company designates the hedging instrument, based upon the exposure being hedged, as either a fair value hedge or a cash flow hedge. The effective portion of changes in fair value of financial instruments designated as cash flow hedging instruments is recorded as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). Amounts included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for cash flow hedges are reclassified into earnings in the same period that the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of financial instruments designated as cash flow hedges is recognized currently in earnings within the same line item as the hedged item, based upon the nature of the hedged item. For financial instruments that are not part of a qualified hedging relationship, the changes in their fair value are recognized currently in earnings. Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets On an annual basis and at interim periods when circumstances require, the Company tests the recoverability of its goodwill. The Company has one reporting unit and compares the carrying value of its reporting unit to its fair value. If the carrying value of the reporting unit is greater than its fair value, the Company recognizes an impairment charge for the amount equal to that excess. The fair value of the reporting unit is estimated using a combination of an income approach on the present value of estimated future cash flows and a market approach based on published earnings multiples of comparable entities with similar operations and economic characteristics as well as acquisition multiples paid in recent transactions. The Company’s discounted cash flows are based upon reasonable and appropriate assumptions, which are weighted for their likely probability of occurrence, about the underlying business activities of the Company. Indefinite-lived intangible assets, primarily our trade name, are not amortized but are evaluated annually for impairment and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of this asset may exceed its fair value. If the carrying value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. Finite-Lived Intangible and Long-Lived Assets Intangible assets include customer relationships and technology. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated economic lives of the assets, which range from three to 10 years. Long-lived assets, including intangible assets with finite lives, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Determination of recoverability is based on an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows resulting from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. Measurement of an impairment loss for long-lived assets that management expects to hold and use is based on the estimated fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or estimated fair value less costs to sell. Revenue Recognition On January 1, 2018, the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 606, Revenue with Contracts from Customers ("Topic 606") became effective. Topic 606 is the new revenue recognition guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") as discussed below under "Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements." Topic 606 replaces ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition ("Topic 605"), which was the revenue recognition standard in effect during the three-year period ended December 31, 2017 . The Company has historically recorded revenue under Topic 605 and ASC Topic 840, Leases , ("Topic 840"). The table below summarizes the Company's revenue by type and by the accounting standard used to determine the accounting (in millions). Year Ended December 31, 2017 2016 2015 Topic 840 Topic 605 Total Topic 840 Topic 605 Total Topic 840 Topic 605 Total Revenues: Equipment rental $ 1,372.3 $ — $ 1,372.3 $ 1,247.1 $ — $ 1,247.1 $ 1,305.9 $ — $ 1,305.9 Other rental revenue: Delivery and pick-up — 75.2 75.2 — 66.9 66.9 — 73.6 73.6 Other 51.5 — 51.5 38.7 — 38.7 32.2 — 32.2 Total other rental revenues 51.5 75.2 126.7 38.7 66.9 105.6 32.2 73.6 105.8 Total equipment rentals 1,423.8 75.2 1,499.0 1,285.8 66.9 1,352.7 1,338.1 73.6 1,411.7 Sales of revenue earning equipment — 190.8 190.8 — 122.5 122.5 — 161.2 161.2 Sales of new equipment, parts and supplies — 52.3 52.3 — 68.2 68.2 — 92.1 92.1 Service and other revenues — 12.4 12.4 — 11.4 11.4 — 13.2 13.2 Total revenues $ 1,423.8 $ 330.7 $ 1,754.5 $ 1,285.8 $ 269.0 $ 1,554.8 $ 1,338.1 $ 340.1 $ 1,678.2 Topic 840 revenues Equipment rental Equipment rental revenue includes revenue generated from renting equipment to customers and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the length of the rental contract. Equipment is available for rent on a daily, weekly or monthly basis with most rental agreements cancellable upon return of the equipment. Also included in equipment rental revenue is re-rent revenue in which the Company will rent from vendors and then rent to its customers. Re-rent revenue is accounted for in the same manner as equipment rental revenue generated from the Company's owned revenue earning equipment. Provisions for discounts, rebates to customers and other adjustments are provided for in the period the related revenue is recorded. Other Other equipment rental revenue is primarily comprised of fees for the rental protection program which allows customers to limit their risk of financial loss in the event the Company's equipment is damaged or lost and environmental charges associated with the rental of equipment. Topic 605 revenues Delivery and pick-up Delivery and pick-up revenue associated with renting equipment is recognized when the services are performed. Sales of revenue earning equipment, new equipment, parts and supplies Revenue from the sale of revenue earning equipment, new equipment, parts and supplies is recognized at the time the customer takes possession, when collectability is reasonably assured and when all obligations under the sales contract have been fulfilled. The Company generally recognizes revenue from the sale of new equipment purchased from other companies based on the gross amount billed as the Company establishes its own pricing and retains related inventory risk, is the primary obligor in sales transactions with its customers, and assumes the credit risk for amounts billed to its customers. Service and other Service and other revenue is primarily revenue earned from providing repair and maintenance to revenue earning equipment owned by the Company's customers. Service revenue is recognized as the services are performed. Sales tax amounts collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net basis and therefore excluded from revenue. Advertising Advertising and sales promotion costs are expensed the first time the advertising or sales promotion takes place. Advertising costs are reflected as a component of "Selling, general and administrative" expense in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. For the years ended December 31, 2017 , 2016 and 2015 , advertising costs were $2.7 million , $3.6 million and $2.9 million , respectively. Stock Based Compensation Under the Company's stock based compensation plans, certain employees and members of the Company's board of directors have received grants of restricted stock units, performance stock units and stock options for Herc Holdings common stock. The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award. That cost is recognized over the period during which the employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award. The Company estimates the fair value of options issued at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which includes assumptions related to volatility, expected term, dividend yield and risk-free interest rate. The Company accounts for restricted stock unit and performance stock unit awards as equity classified awards. For restricted stock units, the expense is based on the grant date fair value of the stock and the number of shares that vest, recognized over the service period. For performance stock units, the expense is based on the grant date fair value of the stock, recognized over a service period depending upon the applicable performance condition. For performance stock units, the Company re-assesses the probability of achieving the applicable performance condition each reporting period and adjusts the recognition of expense accordingly. Income Taxes The Company’s operations are subject to U.S. federal, state and local, and foreign income taxes, portions of which have historically been included in the Hertz Holdings consolidated U.S. federal income tax return, along with certain state and local and foreign income tax returns. In preparing its combined financial statements for periods prior to the Spin-Off, the Company has determined the tax provision for those operations that are included in the Hertz Holdings consolidated tax return on a separate company return basis, assuming that the Company had filed on a stand-alone basis separate from Hertz Holdings (“Separate Return Basis”). The current and deferred tax related balances and related tax carryforwards reflected in the Company’s combined financial statements for periods prior to the Spin-Off have been determined on a Separate Return Basis. As a result, the tax balances and carryforwards on the Company’s tax returns post Spin-Off, including net operating losses and tax credits, will be different from those reflected in the combined financial statements. In addition, as a consequence of the Company’s inclusion in the Hertz Holdings' consolidated income tax returns, the Company is severally liable, with other members of the consolidated group, for any additional taxes that may be assessed. There are no unrecognized tax benefits based on the Herc operations prior to the Spin-Off reflected in these combined financial statements. Herc's LKE Program was in place for several years. Pursuant to the program, Herc disposed of equipment and acquires replacement equipment in a form intended to allow such dispositions and replacements to qualify as tax-deferred "like-kind exchanges" pursuant to Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code ("Section 1031"). The program had resulted in deferral of federal and state income taxes in prior years. The 2017 Tax Act eliminated the eligibility of personal property for Section 1031 treatment. The 2017 Tax Act also enacted an election to immediately expense all purchases of new and used personal property placed in service after September 27, 2017. As a result of the 2017 Tax Act, the Company ceased its LKE Program and therefore reflects zero restricted cash as of December 31, 2017 . The Company applies the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, Income Taxes ("ASC 740"), and computes the provision for income taxes on a Separate Return Basis. Under ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates is recognized in the statement of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Subsequent changes to enacted tax rates and changes in the interpretations thereof will result in deferred taxes and any related valuation allowances. Provisions are not made for income taxes on undistributed earnings of international subsidiaries that are intended to be indefinitely reinvested outside of the United States or are expected to be remitted free of taxes. Future distributions, if any, from these international subsidiaries to the United States or changes in U.S. tax rules may require a charge to reflect tax on these amounts. In accordance with ASC 740, the Company recognizes, in its consolidated financial statements, the impact of the Company's tax positions that are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination based on the technical merits of the positions. The Company recognizes interest and penalties for uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. The 2017 Tax Act, which was enacted in December 2017, had a substantial impact on the income tax benefit for the year ended December 31, 2017 . The Company expects to meaningfully benefit from its enactment in future periods. See Note 13 , " Income Taxes " for further detail. Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Adopted Simplifying the Subsequent Measurement of Inventory In July 2015, the FASB issued guidance that requires inventory to be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value (rather than cost or market), excluding inventory measured using the last-in, first-out method or the retail inventory method. Net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2017 in accordance with the effective date. Adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance that eliminates the requirement to apply the equity method of accounting retrospectively when significant influence over a previously held investment is obtained. Rather, the guidance requires the investor to add the cost of acquiring the additional interest in the investee to the current basis of the investor’s previously held interest and adopt the equity method of accounting as of the date the investment becomes qualified for equity method of accounting. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2017 in accordance with the effective date. Adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance that simplifies several areas of employee share-based payment accounting, including: (i) eliminating tracking of tax "windfalls" in a separate pool within additional paid-in capital; instead, excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies are recorded within income tax expense; (ii) eliminating the requirem |

The impact of depreciation rate changes increased expense $18.0 million , $9.4 million and $1.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 , 2016 and 2015 , respectively. For certain equipment at or nearing the end of its useful life, the Company considers the option of refurbishing the equipment as an alternative to replacing it based upon the economics of each alternative. Therefore, the number of units refurbished each year can fluctuate based on several factors including the market conditions for used equipment sales and incentives offered by manufacturers of new equipment. The capitalized cost of refurbishing revenue earning equipment was $ 0.5 million , $6.5 million and $40.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2017 , 2016 and 2015 , respectively. During 2017, the Company deemed certain revenue earning equipment, with a net book value of approximately $4.3 million , to be held for sale and reclassified such equipment to "Prepaid and other current assets" in the consolidated balance sheet. The Company also performed an impairment assessment of revenue earning equipment and recorded an impairment charge as discussed further in Note 6 , " Impairment ." |

In March and October 2017, Herc drew down on its ABL Credit Facility and cumulatively redeemed $122.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Notes and $125.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2024 Notes and recorded an $11.4 million loss on the early extinguishment of debt, comprised of a 3% cash premium totaling $7.4 million and a non-cash charge of $4.0 million for the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs. The losses on early extinguishment of debt are included in "Interest expense, net” in the Company's consolidated statement of operations. Covenants The Indenture contains covenants that, among other things, limit the ability of Herc to incur additional indebtedness, guarantee indebtedness or issue certain preferred shares; pay dividends on, redeem or repurchase stock or make other distributions in respect of its capital stock; repurchase, prepay or redeem subordinated indebtedness; make loans and investments; create liens; transfer or sell assets; consolidate, merge or sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets; enter into certain transactions with affiliates; and designate subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries. Upon the occurrence of certain events constituting a change of control triggering event, Herc is required to make an offer to repurchase all or any part of the Notes (unless otherwise redeemed) at a purchase price equal to 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any to (but excluding) the repurchase date. If Herc sells assets under certain circumstances, it must use the proceeds to make an offer to purchase the Notes at a price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the repurchase date. Events of Default The following are events of default under the Indenture (subject to customary exceptions, thresholds and grace periods): the nonpayment of principal when due; the nonpayment of interest when due continued for 30 days; the failure to comply for 60 days after receipt of requisite notice with specified obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Notes or the Indenture; the failure of any subsidiary guarantor to comply for 45 days with its obligations under its guarantee or a failure of any guarantee of a significant subsidiary to be in full force and effect; the failure to pay any indebtedness for borrowed money after final maturity or cross acceleration of material debt if the total amount of such indebtedness exceeds $150.0 million ; certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization; the failure to discharge any judgment in excess of $100.0 million ; and the failure of any security document securing the Notes to be in full force and effect with respect to any collateral having a fair market value in excess of $150.0 million . ABL Credit Facility The Company's ABL Credit Facility held by its Herc subsidiary, provides for senior secured revolving loans up to a maximum aggregate principal amount of $1,750 million (subject to availability under a borrowing base), including revolving loans in an aggregate principal amount of $350 million available to Canadian borrowers and U.S. borrowers. Up to $250 million of the revolving loan facility is available for the issuance of letters of credit, subject to certain conditions including issuing lender participation. Extensions of credit under the ABL Credit Facility are limited by a borrowing base calculated periodically based on specified percentages of the value of eligible rental equipment, eligible service vehicles, eligible spare parts and merchandise, eligible accounts receivable, and eligible unbilled accounts subject to certain reserves and other adjustments. Subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions and limitations, the ABL Credit Facility allows for the addition of incremental revolving and/or term loan commitments. In addition, the ABL Credit Facility permits Herc to increase the amount of commitments under the ABL Credit Facility with the consent of each lender providing an additional commitment, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions. The following summarizes the significant terms and conditions of the ABL Credit Facility: Interest and Fees The interest rates applicable to the loans under the ABL Credit Facility are based on a fluctuating rate of interest measured by reference to either, at the borrowers’ option, (i) an adjusted London inter-bank offered rate, plus a borrowing margin or (ii) an alternate base rate, plus a borrowing margin (or, in the case of the Canadian borrowers, a rate equal to the rate on bankers’ acceptances with the same maturity, plus a borrowing margin). The borrowing margin on the ABL Credit Facility is determined based on a pricing grid that is bifurcated based on corporate credit ratings, with levels within the grid based on available commitments. Customary fees are also payable in respect of the ABL Credit Facility, including a commitment fee on the unutilized portion thereof. Maturity and Prepayments The ABL Credit Facility matures on June 30, 2021 . The ABL Credit Facility may be prepaid at the borrowers’ option at any time without premium or penalty and will be subject to mandatory prepayment (i) if the outstanding U.S. dollar or Canadian dollar denominated revolving loans under the ABL Credit Facility exceed either the aggregate commitments with respect thereto or the current applicable borrowing base, in an amount equal to such excess or (ii) if, following the occurrence of asset dispositions or any settlement of or payment in respect of any property or casualty insurance claim or any condemnation proceeding relating to the collateral, less than 100% of the net cash proceeds have been reinvested in Herc’s business within 365 days and the available loan commitments are less than $250 million . Guarantees and Security Herc and certain of its subsidiaries, including Canadian subsidiaries, are the borrowers under the ABL Credit Facility. Herc Intermediate Holdings LLC, Herc and each direct and indirect domestic subsidiary of Herc (and, in the case of Canadian obligations, each direct and indirect Canadian subsidiary of Herc) guarantees the borrowers’ payment obligations under the ABL Credit Facility, subject to certain exceptions. The ABL Credit Facility and the guarantees thereof are secured by (i) a first priority pledge of (A) all of the capital stock of Herc and each domestic borrower, (B) all of the capital stock of all domestic subsidiaries owned by Herc, each domestic borrower and each domestic subsidiary guarantor and (C) 65% of the capital stock of any foreign subsidiary held directly by Herc, any domestic borrower or any domestic subsidiary guarantor and (ii) a first priority security interest in substantially all other tangible and intangible assets owned by Herc, each domestic borrower and each domestic subsidiary guarantor, in each case to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to certain exceptions. The Canadian obligations under the ABL Credit Facility are also secured, pursuant to a Canadian guarantee and collateral agreement made by the Canadian borrowers and certain Canadian subsidiaries of Herc in favor of the Canadian agent and Canadian ABL collateral agent, by a first priority security interest in substantially all assets of the Canadian borrowers and the Canadian guarantors, subject to certain exceptions. The liens securing the ABL Credit Facility are first in priority (as between the ABL Credit Facility and the Notes) with respect to the collateral. Covenants The ABL Credit Facility contains a number of negative covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict the ability of the borrowers and, in certain cases, their restricted subsidiaries to dispose of assets, incur additional indebtedness, incur guarantee obligations, prepay certain indebtedness, make certain dividends, create liens, make investments, make acquisitions, engage in mergers, change the nature of their business, engage in certain transactions with affiliates and enter into certain restrictive agreements. Failure to maintain certain levels of liquidity will subject the Herc credit group to a contractually specified fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1 :1 for the four quarters most recently ended. As of December 31, 2017 , the Company was not subject to the fixed charge coverage ratio test. Covenants in the ABL Credit Facility restrict payment of cash dividends to any parent of Herc, including Herc Holdings, except in an aggregate amount, taken together with certain investments, acquisitions and optional prepayments, not to exceed $200 million . Herc may also pay additional cash dividends under the ABL Credit Facility under certain circumstances. The ABL Credit Facility also contains certain affirmative covenants, including financial and other reporting requirements. Events of Default The ABL Credit Facility provides for customary events of default (subject to customary exceptions, thresholds and grace periods), including, without limitation, non-payment of principal, interest or fees, violation of covenants, material inaccuracy of representations or warranties, specified cross default and cross acceleration to other material indebtedness, certain bankruptcy events, certain ERISA events, material invalidity of guarantees or security interest, material judgments and change of control. Other Borrowings In June 2017, the Company's subsidiary in China entered into uncommitted credit agreements with a bank for up to the aggregate principal amount of $10.0 million . Interest accrues on the loans drawn under these facilities at a rate of 110% of the prevailing base lending rates published by People's Bank of China and is payable quarterly. As of December 31, 2017 , the Company had short-term borrowings under these facilities totaling $2.6 million . Borrowing Capacity and Availability After outstanding borrowings, the following was available to the Company under the ABL Credit Facility as of December 31, 2017 (in millions): Remaining Capacity Availability Under Borrowing Base Limitation ABL Credit Facility $ 597.2 $ 597.2 In addition, as of December 31, 2017 , the Company's subsidiary in China had uncommitted credit facilities of which $7.4 million was available for borrowing. Letters of Credit As of December 31, 2017 , the ABL Credit Facility had $227.2 million available under the letter of credit facility sublimit, subject to borrowing base restrictions as $22.8 million of standby letters of credit were issued and outstanding, upon which none have been drawn. Debt Issuance Costs In connection with the issuance of the Notes and entry into the ABL Credit Facility in 2016, the Company capitalized $41.5 million in deferred debt issuance costs, of which $22.5 million were recorded to "Long-term debt" and $19.0 million were recorded to "Other long-term assets" in the consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2017 . The debt issuance costs are being amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method for costs related to the Notes and on a straight-line basis for costs related to the ABL Credit Facility over the respective contractual terms of the applicable debt. Non-cash interest expense related to the amortization of these debt issuance costs for the years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 were $6.3 million and $3.4 million , respectively. The Company wrote off $4.0 million of unamortized deferred financing costs during the year ended December 31, 2017 related to the March and October partial redemptions of its Notes. |

Leases [Abstract] | |
Financing Obligations | Financing Obligations In October 2017, Herc consummated a sale-leaseback transaction pursuant to which it sold 42 of its properties located in the U.S. for gross proceeds of approximately $119.5 million , and entered into a master lease agreement pursuant to which it will continue operations at those properties as a tenant. The triple net lease agreement has an initial term of 20 years, subject to extension, at Herc's option, for up to five additional periods of five years each. The sale of the properties did not qualify for sale-leaseback accounting due to continuing involvement with the properties. Therefore, the book value of the building and land will remain on the Company's consolidated balance sheet. In connection with the sale-leaseback, the Company capitalized $2.7 million in deferred financing obligations issuance costs. The costs are being amortized to interest expense using the effective interest method. Non-cash interest expense related to the amortization of these costs for the year ended December 31, 2017 was $0.1 million . The Company's financing obligations consist of the following (in millions): Weighted Average Effective Interest Rate at December 31, 2017 Maturity December 31, 2017 Financing Obligations 4.62% 2037 $ 118.2 Unamortized Financing Issuance Costs (2.6 ) Total financing obligations 115.6 Less: Current maturities of financing obligations (2.7 ) Financing obligations, net $ 112.9 As of December 31, 2017 , future minimum financing payments for the agreement referred to above are as follows (in millions): 2018 $ 7.9 2019 7.9 2020 7.9 2021 7.9 2022 7.9 Thereafter 117.0 Total minimum financing obligations payments 156.5 Obligations subject to non-cash gain on future sale of property 32.4 Less amount representing interest (at a weighted-average interest rate of 4.62%) (70.7 ) Total financing obligations $ 118.2 |

Retirement Benefits [Abstract] | |
Employee Retirement Benefits | Employee Retirement Benefits 401(k) Savings Plan and Other Defined Contribution Plans Prior to the Spin-Off, the Company participated in a THC-sponsored U.S. defined contribution plan covering substantially all U.S. employees (the "Hertz Savings Plan"), as well as certain non-U.S. defined contribution plans covering eligible non-U.S. employees, primarily in Canada. On July 1, 2016, the Company established the Herc Holdings Savings Plan covering all of its U.S. employees. Following the Spin-Off, the accounts (including loans) of the Company's current and former employees were transferred from the Hertz Savings Plan to the new Herc Holdings Savings Plan. Contributions to the plans are made by both the employee and the Company. Company contributions to these plans are based on the level of employee contributions and formulas determined by the Company. Expenses for the defined contribution plans for the years ended December 31, 2017 , 2016 and 2015 were approximately $9.4 million , $7.5 million and $7.4 million , respectively. Defined Benefit Pension and Postretirement Plans Prior to the Spin-Off, the Company participated in certain THC-sponsored U.S. defined benefit pension and postretirement plans covering substantially all U.S. employees, as well as certain non-U.S. defined benefit plans covering eligible non-U.S. employees. Qualified U.S. employees of the Company, after completion of specified periods of service, were eligible to participate in The Hertz Corporation Account Balance Defined Benefit Pension Plan (the "Hertz Plan"), a cash balance plan that was frozen effective December 31, 2014. In July 2016, the Company established the Herc Holdings Retirement Plan (the "Plan"), a U.S. qualified pension plan. The majority of assets and liabilities of the Hertz Plan attributable to current and former employees of the equipment rental business were transferred to the Plan following the Spin-Off based on a preliminary allocation. The final allocations and transfers were completed in April and August 2017 and were lower than the preliminary allocation, resulting in a $3.6 million increase to the pension liability funded status and a corresponding offset of $2.0 million , net of taxes, to additional paid-in capital. Postretirement benefits, other than pensions, provide healthcare benefits, and in some instances, life insurance benefits for certain eligible retired employees in the U.S. The Company reflects the funded status of defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans as an asset or liability. This amount is defined as the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the benefit obligation. The Company is required to recognize as a component of other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax, the actuarial gains/losses and prior service credits that arise but were not previously required to be recognized as components of net periodic benefit cost. Other comprehensive income (loss) is adjusted as these amounts are later recognized in the statement of operations as components of net periodic benefit cost. The Company’s policy for funded plans is to contribute, at a minimum, amounts required by applicable laws, regulations and union agreements. The Plan represents approximately 98% of the Company's defined benefit plan obligations and 100% of its plan assets. The Company did not make any cash contributions to the Plan or the predecessor Hertz Plan in 2017 , 2016 or 2015 and does not anticipate making any contributions during 2018 . The level of future contributions will vary, and is dependent on a number of factors including investment returns, interest rate fluctuations, plan demographics, funding regulations and the results of the final actuarial valuation. Additionally, pursuant to various collective bargaining agreements, certain union-represented employees participate in multiemployer pension plans. The following table provides a reconciliation of benefit obligations and plan assets of the Company’s pension plans and postretirement benefit plans (in millions): Pension Postretirement 2017 2016 2017 2016 Change in Projected Benefit Obligations Benefit obligations at beginning of year $ 149.4 $ 143.0 $ 1.0 $ 1.0 Service cost — 0.1 — — Interest cost 6.1 5.8 — — Employee contributions — — — 0.1 Plan settlements (6.8 ) (0.1 ) — — Benefits paid (0.3 ) (3.7 ) — (0.1 ) Net transfer (1) — 3.6 — — Actuarial loss 11.6 0.7 0.1 — Benefit obligations at end of year $ 160.0 $ 149.4 $ 1.1 $ 1.0 Change in Fair Value of Plan Assets Fair value of plan assets at beginning of year $ 133.2 $ 124.3 $ — $ — Actual return on plan assets 17.9 9.4 — — Company contributions — 0.1 — — Employee contributions — — — 0.1 Plan settlements (6.8 ) (0.1 ) — — Benefits paid (0.3 ) (3.7 ) — (0.1 ) Adjustment (2) (3.6 ) 3.2 — — Fair value of plan assets at end of year $ 140.4 $ 133.2 $ — $ — Funded Status $ (19.6 ) $ (16.2 ) $ (1.1 ) $ (1.0 ) Accumulated benefit obligations $ 160.0 $ 149.4 (1) The benefit obligation is determined each January 1, based upon updated participant information. In connection with the Spin-Off, the net transfer in 2016 represented a liability adjustment related to updated participant information. (2) In connection with the Spin-Off, assets were allocated between THC and the Company in proportion to the associated liability. The adjustment for 2017 represented the final allocations and settlements with the Hertz Plan and for 2016 represented an adjustment for the updated liability.

The discount rate reflects the rate the Company would have to pay to purchase high-quality investments that would provide cash sufficient to settle its current pension obligations. The discount rate is determined based on a range of factors, including the rates of return on high-quality, fixed-income corporate bonds and the related expected duration of the obligations. The discount rate for the Plan is based on the rate from the Mercer Pension Discount Curve-Above Mean Yield that is appropriate for the duration of the obligations. The discount rate used to measure the pension obligation at the end of the year is also used to measure pension cost in the following year. The expected return on plan assets for the U.S. qualified plan is based on expected future investment returns considering the target investment mix of plan assets. It reflects the average rate of earnings expected on the funds invested, or to be invested, to provide for the benefits included in the projected benefit obligations. In determining the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets, the Company considers the relative weighting of plan assets, the historical performance of total plan assets and individual asset classes and economic and other indicators of future performance. There was no average rate of increase in compensation for 2017 as there are no longer any employees in the Plan accruing benefits. Rates prior to 2017 reflected expected long-term average rate of salary increases and were based on historic salary increase experience and management’s expectations of future salary increases. The ultimate healthcare cost trend rates for the postretirement benefit plans are expected to be reached in 2038 . Changing the assumed health care cost trend rates by one percentage point is estimated to have an insignificant (less than $0.1 million ) impact on the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation as of December 31, 2017 and the 2017 aggregate of service and interest costs. The Company expects to amortize $0.6 million of net actuarial losses from accumulated other comprehensive loss into net periodic pension cost (benefit) in 2018 . Plan Assets The Company has a long-term investment outlook for its Plan assets, which is consistent with the long-term nature of the Plan's respective liabilities. The Plan currently has a target asset allocation of 35% equity and 65% fixed income. The equity portion of the assets are invested in one passively managed U.S. large cap index fund, one actively managed U.S. small/mid cap fund, one actively managed international fund and one actively managed emerging markets fund. The fixed income portion of the assets is actively managed with the majority invested in long and intermediate duration government/credit funds and smaller allocations to an actively managed high yield fund, a bank loan fund and a hard currency emerging market debt fund. A modest amount of cash is maintained to facilitate payment of benefits and plan expenses. The fair value measurements of all plan assets are based upon significant other observable inputs (Level 2), except for cash which is based upon quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1). The following represents the Company's pension plan assets (in millions): Asset Category December 31, 2017 December 31, 2016 Cash $ 2.2 $ 1.5 Short Term Investments 0.1 0.2 Equity Securities: U.S. Large Cap 16.3 34.7 U.S. Mid Cap 7.3 11.3 U.S. Small Cap 1.6 9.5 International Large Cap 17.8 20.8 International Emerging Markets 6.8 6.9 Fixed Income Securities: U.S. Treasuries 20.8 6.8 Corporate Bonds 43.7 21.4 Government Bonds 9.3 3.5 Municipal Bonds 2.3 3.2 Mortgage-Backed Securities 2.8 1.8 Asset-Backed Securities 2.7 1.2 Bank Loans 6.4 — Other 0.3 — 140.4 122.8 Plan assets receivable from the Hertz Plan — 10.4 Total fair value of pension plan assets $ 140.4 $ 133.2 Estimated Future Benefit Payments The following table presents estimated future benefit payments (in millions): Pension Postretirement 2018 $ 5.5 $ 0.1 2019 6.4 0.1 2020 7.3 0.1 2021 7.8 0.1 2022 8.8 0.1 2023-2027 58.3 0.5 $ 94.1 $ 1.0 Multiemployer Pension Plans The Company contributes to several multiemployer defined benefit pension plans under collective bargaining agreements that cover certain union represented employees. The risks of participating in such plans are different from the risks of single-employer plans, in the following respects: (a) Assets contributed to a multiemployer plan by one employer may be used to provide benefits to employees of other participating employers; (b) If a participating employer ceases to contribute to the plan, the unfunded obligations of the plan may be borne by the remaining participating employers; and (c) If the Company ceases to have an obligation to contribute to the multiemployer plan in which the Company had been a contributing employer, the Company may be required to pay to the plan an amount based on the underfunded status of the plan and on the history of the Company's participation in the plan prior to the cessation of its obligation to contribute. The amount that an employer that has ceased to have an obligation to contribute to a multiemployer plan is required to pay to the plan is referred to as a withdrawal liability. The Company's participation in multiemployer plans for the annual period ended December 31, 2017 is outlined in the table below. For each plan that is individually significant to the Company, the following information is provided: • The "EIN / Pension Plan Number" column provides the Employer Identification Number assigned to a plan by the Internal Revenue Service. • The "Pension Protection Act Zone Status" available is for plan years that ended in 2017 and 2016. The zone status is based on information provided to the Company and other participating employers by each plan and is certified by the plan's actuary. A plan in the "red" zone has been determined to be in "critical status," based on criteria established under the Internal Revenue Code, or the "Code," and is generally less than 65% funded. A plan in the "yellow" zone has been determined to be in "endangered status," based on criteria established under the Code, and is generally less than 80% funded. A plan in the "green" zone has been determined to be neither in "critical status" nor in "endangered status," and is generally at least 80% funded. • The "FIP/RP Status Pending/Implemented" column indicates whether a Funding Improvement Plan, as required under the Code to be adopted by plans in the "yellow" zone, or a Rehabilitation Plan, as required under the Code to be adopted by plans in the “red” zone, is pending or has been implemented as of the end of the plan year that ended in 2017. • The "Surcharge Imposed" column indicates whether a surcharge was paid during the most recent annual period presented for the Company's contributions to any plan in the red zone in accordance with the requirements of the Code. The last column lists the expiration dates of the collective bargaining agreements pursuant to which the Company contributed to the plans. There are no plans where the amount contributed by the Company represents more than 5% of the total contributions to the plan for the years ended December 31, 2017 , 2016 and 2015 .

Stock-Based Compensation | Stock-Based Compensation Prior to the Spin-Off, certain of the Company's employees participated in stock-based compensation plans sponsored by Hertz Holdings. Stock-based compensation awards are measured on their grant date using a fair value method and are recognized in the statement of operations over the requisite service period. The stock-based compensation plan provides for grants of both equity and cash awards, including non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, stock appreciation rights, performance awards (shares and units), restricted awards (shares and units) and deferred stock units to key executives, employees and non-management directors. In connection with the Spin-Off, Herc Holdings inherited the Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. 2008 Omnibus Incentive Plan, which was renamed the Herc Holdings Inc. 2008 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Plan”). Outstanding equity awards at the time of the Spin-Off were adjusted and converted in accordance with a formula designed to preserve the intrinsic economic value of the original equity awards after taking into account the Spin-Off and the reverse stock split. Adjusted awards for active and former Herc employees were denominated in the common stock of Herc Holdings after the Spin-Off. Generally, the adjusted awards were subject to the same terms and vesting conditions as the original Hertz Holdings awards. The adjusted awards for performance stock units included adjusted performance metrics to reflect the separation of the vehicle rental and equipment rental businesses, and the adjusted awards contained such additional or adjusted provisions as were required. The total number of common shares authorized for issuance under the Omnibus Plan after the reverse stock split is approximately 2,200,000 , of which 551,000 remains available as of December 31, 2017 for future incentive awards. The share and per share data presented in this note have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the impact of the separation and conversion, including the reverse stock split. The Company's stock-based compensation expense is included in “Selling, general and administrative” expense in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. The following table summarizes the expenses and associated income tax benefits recognized (in millions): Years Ended December 31, 2017 2016 2015 Compensation expense $ 10.1 $ 5.5 $ 2.7 Income tax benefit (2.5 ) (2.1 ) (1.1 ) Total $ 7.6 $ 3.4 $ 1.6 Stock-based compensation expense includes expense attributable to the Company based on the terms of the awards granted under the Omnibus Plan to the participants in the Omnibus Plan. Additionally, during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 , stock-based compensation expense includes an allocation of THC's corporate and shared functional employee expenses of $2.0 million and $1.8 million , respectively, on a pre-tax basis. The expenses are for the employees of THC and its non-Herc Holdings subsidiaries whose costs of services were allocated to the Company for the applicable periods presented. For additional information related to costs allocated to the Company by THC, see Note 20 , " Related Party Transactions ." As of December 31, 2017 , there was $17.2 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock options, restricted stock units ("RSUs") and performance stock units ("PSUs") granted under the Omnibus Plan. The total unrecognized compensation cost is expected to be recognized over the remaining 1.8 years, on a weighted average basis, of the requisite service period that began on the grant dates. Stock Options All stock options granted under the Omnibus Plan had a per-share exercise price of not less than the fair market value of one share of common stock on the grant date. Stock options vest based on a minimum period of service or the occurrence of events (such as a change in control, as defined in the Omnibus Plan). No stock options are exercisable after ten years from the grant date. The Company’s practice is to grant stock options at fair market value. Options vest over four years with terms of five to 10 years, assuming continued employment with certain exceptions. Vesting of the option awards is contingent upon meeting certain service conditions. The fair value of option grants is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The fair value is then amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service periods of the awards, which is generally the vesting period. Use of a valuation model requires management to make certain assumptions with respect to selected model inputs. For stock option grants during 2016, expected volatility was calculated based on a blended volatility of peer group volatility and implied volatility as the Company does not have sufficient stock price data to calculate historical volatility. The Company used the simplified method under Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 14, Share-Based Payment as the basis for estimating the expected life of an option because the exercise data for participants who held options as employees of a subsidiary of our former parent is not necessarily indicative of future exercise patterns. The risk-free interest rate was based on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a remaining term which approximates the expected life assumed at the date of grant. The compensation expense recognized for all stock-based awards is net of estimated forfeitures. Forfeitures were estimated based on an analysis of actual option forfeitures. The weighted average assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model are as follows: Years Ended December 31, 2017 2016 2015 Expected volatility N/A 50% 39.0% Expected dividend yield N/A —% —% Expected term (years) N/A 4.8 5.0 Risk-free interest rate N/A 1.09% 1.22% The weighted average per share grant date fair values of options granted during 2016 and 2015 were $14.28 and $18.06 , respectively. There were no options granted during 2017 . A summary of option activity under the Omnibus Plan is presented below. Options Weighted Weighted Aggregate Intrinsic Outstanding at December 31, 2016 529,675 $ 37.90 Granted — — Exercised (18,940 ) 37.50 Forfeited or expired (70,093 ) 41.91 Outstanding at December 31, 2017 440,642 $ 37.25 Vested and Unvested Expected to Vest at December 31, 2017 292,051 $ 36.31 5.3 7.7 Exercisable at December 31, 2017 127,891 $ 39.91 4.6 3.0 (a) Market price per share on December 29, 2017, the last trading day of the year, was $62.61 .

(b) In addition to the cash received in the table above, cash received from exercise of stock options by Hertz Holdings employees prior to the Spin-Off for 2016 and 2015 was $9.6 million and $5.1 million , respectively, as reflected in the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows. Performance Stock Units PSUs granted under the Omnibus Plan will vest based on the achievement of pre-determined performance goals over performance periods determined by the Company's Compensation Committee. Each of the units granted under the Omnibus Plan represent the right to receive one share of the Company's common stock on a specified future date. Compensation expense for PSUs is based on the grant date fair value, and is recognized ratably over the three -year vesting period. In addition to the service vesting condition, the PSUs have an additional vesting condition which calls for the number of units to be awarded being based on the achievement of certain performance measures over the applicable measurement period. In the event of an employee's death or disability, a pro rata portion of the employee's PSUs will vest to the extent performance goals are achieved at the end of the performance period. A summary of the PSU activity under the Omnibus Plan is presented below. Units Weighted Nonvested at December 31, 2016 144,964 $ 36.02 Granted 122,428 47.88 Vested — — Forfeited (20,215 ) 38.79 Nonvested at December 31, 2017 247,177 $ 41.67 The weighted average per share grant-date fair values of PSUs granted during 2017 , 2016 and 2015 were $47.88 , $29.77 and $59.50 , respectively. The total fair value of PSUs that vested during 2015 was $0.6 million . There were no PSUs that vested during 2017 or 2016 . PSUs granted in 2017 include vesting conditions based on the achievement of the Company's return on invested capital performance measure over a three-year period from 2017 to 2019. PSUs granted in 2016 include vesting conditions based on the achievement of the Company's corporate EBITDA performance measure over a three -year period from 2016 to 2018. PSUs granted in 2015 include vesting conditions based on the achievement of certain performance measures over a three -year period from 2015 to 2017. For 2015, the performance measure was based on Hertz Holdings' corporate EBITDA performance measure which was not achieved and, therefore, the PSUs for the 2015 performance period were forfeited. In connection with the Spin-Off, the awards' vesting condition for the 2016 and 2017 performance periods was changed by Hertz Holdings to a Herc stand-alone EBITDA performance measure. The change in the performance measure was treated as a modification of the awards and did not have a significant impact on the Company's results of operations. Restricted Stock Units RSUs granted under the Omnibus Plan will vest based on a minimum period of service or the occurrence of events (such as a change in control, as defined in the Omnibus Plan) specified by the Compensation Committee. Compensation expense for RSUs is based on the grant date fair value, and is recognized ratably over the vesting period which generally ranges from one to three years. A summary of the RSU activity under the Omnibus Plan is presented below. Units Weighted Nonvested at December 31, 2016 297,898 $ 32.63 Granted 194,598 45.61 Vested (42,920 ) 37.44 Forfeited (46,399 ) 37.39 Nonvested at December 31, 2017 403,177 $ 38.33 The weighted average per share grant date fair values of RSUs granted during 2017 , 2016 and 2015 were $45.61 , $32.36 and $56.13 , respectively. The total fair value of RSUs that vested during 2017 , 2016 and 2015 was $1.6 million , $0.3 million and $0.6 million , respectively. |

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes For 2015 and the first half of 2016, Herc is included in the consolidated income tax returns of Hertz Holdings. With respect to these time periods, the income tax provision included in these financial statements has been calculated using a separate return basis, as if Herc filed separate consolidated group income tax returns, and was not part of the consolidated income tax returns of Hertz Holdings. In December 2017 the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the "2017 Tax Act") was enacted. This legislation had significant impact on the current tax environment in the U.S. Subsequent to the enactment of the 2017 Tax Act, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") provided guidance on how public companies should report the effects of the 2017 Tax Act in future SEC filings. The Company has performed an initial analysis of the 2017 Tax Act in accordance with this guidance. The Company recognized an income tax net benefit of $207.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 associated with the items that were reasonably estimable. This net benefit reflects (i) a $245.2 million revaluation of the Company's net deferred tax liability based on a U.S. federal tax rate of 21% , partially offset by (ii) a one-time transition tax of $38.1 million on unremitted foreign earnings and profits due to the utilization of net operating loss ("NOL") carryforwards. Below is a summary of the key provisions of the 2017 Tax Act: Tax Rate Reduction The 2017 Tax Act reduces the federal income tax rate from 35% to 21% beginning in 2018. Accordingly, the Company recorded an estimated tax benefit of $245.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2017 associated with the reduction in net deferred tax liabilities. Deemed Repatriation Under the 2017 Tax Act, companies are required, as part of the December 31, 2017 income tax reporting, to calculate the amount of previously unrepatriated earnings from foreign operations and remit a one-time tax (“Toll Charge”) on these previously untaxed earnings. The Company has recognized a tax expense of $38.1 million associated with this deemed repatriation for the year ended December 31, 2017 . The reported amount is an estimate of the expected tax based on information available as of December 31, 2017 including, but not limited to, cumulative earnings and profits from foreign operations, cash equivalent balances, and current state impact on the earnings. These estimates will be finalized during 2018. The Company elected to utilize current NOL carryforwards to offset the deemed repatriation income and therefore recorded no income taxes payable for U.S. federal tax purposes. Interest Expense Limitation Beginning in 2018, interest expense deductions are limited to 30% of adjusted taxable income, subject to certain provisions. No current tax has been recorded with respect to this item as the item is not effective until 2018. The Company will review the impact of this provision on a current basis during 2018. Territorial Taxation The 2017 Tax Act generally allows for the receipt of foreign dividends on a tax-free basis beginning in 2018. However, the 2017 Tax Act also enacts various new taxes with respect to transactions with, and operations of, foreign related parties. As of December 31, 2017 , the Company does not believe this provision impacts currently reported deferred taxes. As a result, the Company has not recorded any tax impacts associated with this provision. The Company will continue to review the impact of this provision, along with new guidance provided by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS"), during 2018. Fixed Assets The 2017 Tax Act allows for a special 100% bonus depreciation deduction to be claimed on many fixed assets purchased subsequent to September 27, 2017 through December 2022. Additionally, the 2017 Tax Act terminated the availability of Section 1031 LKE treatment with respect to personal property items. As a result, the Company has elected to cease matching asset sales with newly acquired assets effective October 1, 2017. Likewise, the Company has elected to begin utilizing the 100% expensing provision effective as of October 1, 2017. The Company is still analyzing the 2017 Tax Act and refining calculations, which could potentially impact the measurement of the tax balances. A substantial portion of the expected 2017 impact of the enactment of the 2017 Tax Act is reflected in the tables below. The components of income (loss) before income taxes for the periods were as follows (in millions): Years Ended December 31, 2017 2016 2015 Domestic $ (59.2 ) $ 2.5 $ 102.4 Foreign (5.2 ) (7.4 ) 54.5 Income (loss) before income taxes $ (64.4 ) $ (4.9 ) $ 156.9 The provision for income taxes consists of the following (in millions): Years Ended December 31, 2017 2016 2015 Current: Federal $ 2.0 $ — $ 15.8 Foreign 5.0 2.4 3.3 State and local (3.3 ) 0.1 4.2 Total current 3.7 2.5 23.3 Deferred: Federal (214.9 ) 3.5 20.4 Foreign (4.6 ) (2.3 ) 0.1 State and local (8.9 ) 11.1 1.8 Total deferred (228.4 ) 12.3 22.3 Total income tax (benefit) provision $ (224.7 ) $ 14.8 $ 45.6 The principal items of the U.S. and foreign net deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows (in millions): December 31, 2017 December 31, 2016 Deferred tax assets: Employee benefit plans $ 5.4 $ 7.1 Tax credit carryforwards 4.2 1.5 Accrued and prepaid expenses 31.7 38.6 Net operating loss carryforwards 46.5 90.7 Total deferred tax assets 87.8 137.9 Less: valuation allowance (7.6 ) (4.5 ) Total net deferred tax assets 80.2 133.4 Deferred tax liabilities: Deferred state gain (5.8 ) (5.5 ) Depreciation on tangible assets (469.7 ) (721.1 ) Intangible assets (66.2 ) (98.9 ) Total deferred tax liabilities (541.7 ) (825.5 ) Net deferred tax liability $ (461.5 ) $ (692.1 ) In connection with the Spin-Off in 2016, NOL carryforwards were split between the Company and New Hertz pursuant to the Code and regulations. The split of net operating loss carryforwards was adjusted in 2017 after the income tax returns were finalized. Accordingly, the Company recorded an adjustment to the federal and state net operating losses of $0.9 million and $4.0 million , respectively. As of December 31, 2017 , deferred tax assets of $28.5 million , net of $0.2 million recorded for uncertain tax positions, were recorded for unutilized federal NOL carryforwards of $28.7 million . The total federal NOL carryforwards are $136.1 million . The federal NOL carryforwards begin to expire in 2031 . State NOL carryforwards have generated a deferred tax asset of $14.1 million . The state NOL carryforwards expire over various years beginning in 2018 depending upon the particular jurisdictions. As of December 31, 2017 , deferred tax assets of $4.2 million were recorded for federal Alternative Minimum Tax, Fuel Tax Credits and various non-U.S. Tax Credits. As of December 31, 2017 , deferred tax assets of $3.9 million were recorded for foreign NOL carryforwards of $16.3 million . The foreign NOL carryforwards of $16.3 million include $1.7 million that have an indefinite carryforward period and associated deferred tax assets of $0.3 million . The remaining foreign NOL carryforwards of $14.6 million are subject to expiration beginning in 2018 and have associated deferred tax assets of $3.6 million . In determining the valuation allowance, an assessment of positive and negative evidence was performed regarding realization of the net deferred tax assets in accordance with ASC Topic 740, Accounting for Income Taxes . This assessment included the evaluation of scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, the availability of carryforwards and estimates of projected future taxable income. Based on the assessment, as of December 31, 2017 , total valuation allowances of $7.6 million were recorded against deferred tax assets. Although realization is not assured, the Company has concluded that it is more likely than not the remaining deferred tax assets of $80.2 million will be realized and as such no valuation allowance has been provided on these assets. The income tax in the accompanying consolidated statements of operations differs from the income tax calculated by applying the statutory federal income tax rate to income (loss) before income taxes due to the following (in millions): Years Ended December 31, 2017 2016 2015 Income tax (benefit) provision at statutory rate $ (22.5 ) $ (1.7 ) $ 54.9 Increases (decreases) resulting from: Foreign taxes 1.9 0.8 2.2 State and local income taxes, net of federal income tax 0.9 11.2 4.5 Federal and foreign 0.5 3.2 (0.3 ) Enactment of the 2017 Tax Act (207.1 ) — — Finalization of estimates from Spin-Off (0.9 ) — — Change in valuation allowance 2.8 1.3 3.8 Benefit from sale of non-U.S. operations — — (20.4 ) All other items, net (0.3 ) — 0.9 Income tax (benefit) provision $ (224.7 ) $ 14.8 $ 45.6 The income tax benefit for 2017 is approximately $202.2 million greater than the benefit calculated using the statutory federal tax rate. The increase is primarily due to the $207.1 million net impact of the 2017 Tax Act. State and local income taxes are primarily impacted by $13.5 million for state rate and state impacts of the federal rate reduction, offset by a $7.3 million benefit from the finalization of the 2016 tax returns. As a result of the 2017 Tax Act, previously undistributed earnings from foreign subsidiaries are deemed to have been repatriated as of December 31, 2017 for federal income tax purposes, while uncertainties exist with respect to the impact on state income taxes. Beginning in 2018, companies will generally be able to repatriate earnings from foreign subsidiaries with no U.S. federal income tax impact. However, certain foreign limitations may still exist including, but not limited to, withholding taxes. Additionally, the repatriated earnings may have state tax expense associated with the transaction. As December 31, 2017, deferred tax liabilities have not been recorded for such earnings because, while it is management’s current intention to permanently reinvest such undistributed earnings offshore, management is continuing to evaluate this position. Due to uncertainty it is not practicable to estimate the actual amount of such deferred tax liabilities. Further, the Company is still analyzing the 2017 Tax Act which could potentially impact the measurement of certain tax balances. As a consequence of the Company’s inclusion in the Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. consolidated income tax returns, it is joint and severally liable, with other members of the consolidated group, for any additional taxes that may be assessed against Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. for the periods prior to June 30, 2016 . As of December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , the Company has recorded a $0.2 million liability related to New Hertz which could impact the NOL allocated to the Company and which is included in the consolidated group for the first half of 2016. The Company classifies net, after-tax interest and penalties related to the liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits as a component of “Income tax benefit (provision)” in the consolidated statements of operations. However, no penalties or interest have been calculated on the balance of unrecognized tax benefits for the years ended December 31, 2017 , 2016 and 2015 as any additional taxable income would be covered by the Company's NOL carryforwards. The Company conducts business globally and, as a result, files one or more income tax returns in the U.S. and non-U.S. jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, the Company is subject to examination by taxing authorities throughout the world. The open tax years for these jurisdictions span from 2005 to 2016. The IRS completed its audit of the Company's 2007 to 2011 consolidated income tax returns, which Herc is included in, and had no changes to the previously filed tax returns. The Company was recently notified that the IRS will be auditing the 2014 and 2015 income tax returns. Several U.S. state and non-U.S. jurisdictions are under audit. The Company does not expect any material assessments resulting from these audits. |

Contingencies and Contingencies | Commitments and Contingencies Legal Proceedings From time to time the Company is a party to various legal proceedings. Summarized below are the most significant legal proceedings to which the Company is a party. In re Hertz Global Holdings, Inc. Securities Litigation —In November 2013, a putative shareholder class action, Pedro Ramirez, Jr. v. Hertz Global Holdings, Inc., et al., was commenced in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey naming Hertz Holdings and certain of its officers as defendants and alleging violations of the federal securities laws. The complaint alleged that Hertz Holdings made material misrepresentations and/or omission of material fact in its public disclosures during the period from February 25, 2013 through November 4, 2013, in violation of Section 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. The complaint sought unspecified monetary damages on behalf of the purported class and an award of costs and expenses, including counsel fees and expert fees. In June 2014, Hertz Holdings moved to dismiss the amended complaint. In October 2014, the court granted Hertz Holdings’ motion to dismiss without prejudice, allowing the plaintiff to amend the complaint a second time. In November 2014, plaintiff filed a second amended complaint which shortened the putative class period and made allegations that were not substantively very different than the allegations in the prior complaint. In early 2015, Hertz Holdings moved to dismiss the second amended complaint. In July 2015, the court granted Hertz Holdings’ motion to dismiss without prejudice, allowing plaintiff to file a third amended complaint. In August 2015, plaintiff filed a third amended complaint which included additional allegations, named additional then-current and former officers as defendants and expanded the putative class period to extend from February 14, 2013 to July 16, 2015. In November 2015, Hertz Holdings moved to dismiss the third amended complaint. The plaintiff then sought leave to add a new plaintiff because of challenges to the standing of the first plaintiff. The court granted plaintiff leave to file a fourth amended complaint to add the new plaintiff, and the new complaint was filed on March 1, 2016. Hertz Holdings and the individual defendants moved to dismiss the fourth amended complaint with prejudice on March 24, 2016. In April 2017, the court granted Hertz Holdings' and the individual defendants' motions to dismiss and dismissed the action with prejudice. In May 2017, plaintiff filed a notice of appeal and, in October 2017, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit issued a briefing schedule. Briefing was completed in February 2018. Governmental Investigations —In June 2014, Hertz Holdings was advised by the staff of the New York Regional Office of the SEC that it is investigating the events disclosed in certain of Hertz Holdings’ filings with the SEC. In addition, in December 2014 a state securities regulator requested information from Hertz Holdings regarding the same or similar events. In May 2017, the state securities regulator advised New Hertz that it had closed its investigation. Starting in June 2016, Hertz Holdings and New Hertz have had communications with the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of New Jersey regarding the same or similar events. New Hertz is responsible for managing these matters. The investigations and communications generally involve the restatements included in Hertz Holdings’ 2014 Form 10-K and related accounting for prior periods. Among other matters, the restatements included in Hertz Holdings’ 2014 Form 10-K addressed a variety of accounting matters involving THC's former Brazil vehicle rental operations. Hertz Holdings identified certain activities by THC's former vehicle rental operations in Brazil that may raise issues under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and other federal and local laws. THC has self-reported these issues to appropriate government entities, and these issues continue to be investigated. The Company has and intends to continue to cooperate with all governmental requests related to the foregoing. At this time, the Company is currently unable to predict the outcome of these proceedings and issues or to reasonably estimate the range of possible losses, which could be material. In addition, the Company is subject to a number of claims and proceedings that generally arise in the ordinary conduct of its business. These matters include, but are not limited to, claims arising from the operation of rented equipment and workers' compensation claims. The Company does not believe that the liabilities arising from such ordinary course claims and proceedings will have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The Company has established reserves for matters where the Company believes the losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. For matters where a reserve has not been established, including certain of those described above, the ultimate outcome or resolution cannot be predicted at this time, or the amount of ultimate loss, if any, cannot be reasonably estimated. Litigation is subject to many uncertainties and there can be no assurance as to the outcome of the individual litigated matters. It is possible that certain of the actions, claims, inquiries or proceedings, including those discussed above, could be decided unfavorably to the Company or any of its subsidiaries involved. Accordingly, it is possible that an adverse outcome from such a proceeding could exceed the amount accrued in an amount that could be material to the Company's consolidated financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in any particular reporting period. Off-Balance Sheet Commitments Indemnification Obligations In the ordinary course of business, the Company executes contracts involving indemnification obligations customary in the relevant industry and indemnifications specific to a transaction such as the sale of a business or assets. These indemnification obligations might include claims relating to the following: environmental matters; intellectual property rights; governmental regulations; employment-related matters; customer, supplier and other commercial contractual relationships; condition of assets; and financial or other matters. Performance under these indemnification obligations would generally be triggered by a breach of terms of the contract or by a third party claim. The Company regularly evaluates the probability of having to incur costs associated with these indemnification obligations and has accrued for expected losses that are probable and estimable. The types of indemnification obligations for which payments are possible include the following: The Spin-Off In connection with the Spin-Off, pursuant to the separation and distribution agreement (as discussed in Note 21 , " Arrangements with New Hertz "), the Company has assumed the liability for, and control of, all pending and threatened legal matters related to its equipment rental business and related assets, as well as assumed or retained liabilities, and will indemnify New Hertz for any liability arising out of or resulting from such assumed legal matters. The separation and distribution agreement also provides for certain liabilities to be shared by the parties. The Company is responsible for a portion of these shared liabilities (typically 15% ), as set forth in that agreement. New Hertz is responsible for managing the settlement or other disposition of such shared liabilities. Pursuant to the tax matters agreement, the Company has agreed to indemnify New Hertz for any resulting taxes and related losses if the Company takes or fails to take any action (or permits any of its affiliates to take or fail to take any action) that causes the Spin-Off and related transactions to be taxable, or if there is an acquisition of the equity securities or assets of the Company or of any member of the Company’s group that causes the Spin-Off and related transactions to be taxable. Environmental The Company has indemnified various parties for the costs associated with remediating numerous hazardous substance storage, recycling or disposal sites in many states and, in some instances, for natural resource damages. The amount of any such expenses or related natural resource damages for which the Company may be held responsible could be substantial. The probable expenses that the Company expects to incur for such matters have been accrued, and those expenses are reflected in the Company's consolidated financial statements. As of December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016 , the aggregate amounts accrued for environmental liabilities, including liability for environmental indemnities, reflected in the Company's consolidated balance sheets in "Accrued liabilities" were $0.1 million and $0.2 million , respectively. The accrual generally represents the estimated cost to study potential environmental issues at sites deemed to require investigation or clean-up activities, and the estimated cost to implement remediation actions, including on-going maintenance, as required. Cost estimates are developed by site. Initial cost estimates are based on historical experience at similar sites and are refined over time on the basis of in-depth studies of the sites. For many sites, the remediation costs and other damages for which the Company ultimately may be responsible cannot be reasonably estimated because of uncertainties with respect to factors such as the Company's connection to the site, the materials there, the involvement of other potentially responsible parties, the application of laws and other standards or regulations, site conditions, and the nature and scope of investigations, studies, and remediation to be undertaken (including the technologies to be required and the extent, duration, and success of remediation). |

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Financial Instruments | Financial Instruments The Company established risk management policies and procedures, which seek to reduce the Company’s risk exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. However, there can be no assurance that these policies and procedures will be successful. Although the instruments utilized involve varying degrees of credit, market and interest risk, the counterparties to the agreements are expected to perform fully under the terms of the agreements. The Company monitors counterparty credit risk, including lenders, on a regular basis, but cannot be certain that all risks will be discerned or that its risk management policies and procedures will always be effective. Additionally, in the event of default under the Company’s master derivative agreements, the non-defaulting party has the option to set-off any amounts owed with regard to open derivative positions. Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk The Company’s objective in managing exposure to foreign currency fluctuations is to limit the exposure of certain cash flows and earnings to foreign currency exchange rate changes through the use of various derivative contracts. The Company experiences foreign currency risks in its global operations as a result of various factors, including intercompany local currency denominated loans, rental operations in various currencies and purchasing fleet in various currencies. Interest Rate Swap Arrangement The Company entered into a three -year LIBOR-based interest rate swap arrangement on a portion of its outstanding ABL Credit Facility. The aggregate amount of the swap is equal to a portion of the U.S. dollar principal amount of the ABL Credit Facility and the payment dates of the swap coincide with the interest payment dates of the ABL Credit Facility. The swap contract provides for the Company to pay a fixed interest rate and receive a floating rate. The variable interest rate resets monthly. The swap has been accounted for as a cash flow hedge of a portion of the ABL Credit Facility. The following table summarizes the outstanding interest rate swap arrangement as of December 31, 2017 (dollars in millions): Aggregate Notional Amount Receive Rate Receive Rate as of December 31, 2017 Pay Rate ABL Credit Facility $ 350.0 1 month LIBOR + 1.75% 3.3 % 3.5 % The following table summarizes the estimated fair value of the Company's financial instruments (in millions): Fair Value of Financial Instruments Other Long-Term Assets Accrued Liabilities December 31, December 31, December 31, December 31, Derivatives Designated as Hedging Instruments Interest rate swap $ 2.1 $ — $ — $ — Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging Instruments Foreign currency forward contracts $ — $ 0.1 $ — $ — The following table summarizes the gains and losses on derivative instruments for the periods indicated.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | Fair Value Measurements Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants in the principal market or, if none exists, the most advantageous market, for the specific asset or liability at the measurement date (referred to as the "exit price"). Fair value is a market-based measurement that should be determined based upon assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability, including consideration of nonperformance risk. The Company assesses the inputs used to measure fair value using the three-tier hierarchy promulgated under U.S. GAAP. This hierarchy indicates the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market. Level 1: Inputs that reflect quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that are observable. Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; or model-derived valuations in which significant inputs are observable or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. Level 3: Inputs that are unobservable to the extent that observable inputs are not available for the asset or liability at the measurement date and include management's judgment about assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Under U.S. GAAP, entities are allowed to measure certain financial instruments and other items at fair value. The Company has not elected the fair value measurement option for any of its assets or liabilities that meet the criteria for this option. Irrespective of the fair value option previously described, U.S. GAAP requires certain financial and non-financial assets and liabilities of the Company to be measured on either a recurring basis or on a nonrecurring basis as shown in the sections that follow. Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis The fair value of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, to the extent the underlying liability will be settled in cash, approximates carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The Company's assessment of goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment includes an assessment using various Level 2 (EBITDA multiples and discount rate) and Level 3 (forecasted cash flows) inputs. See Note 2 , " Basis of Presentation and Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements -Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets," for more information on the application of the use of fair value methodology. Cash Equivalents and Investments Cash equivalents, when held, primarily consist of money market accounts which are classified as Level 1 assets which the Company measures at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company determines the fair value of cash equivalents using a market approach based on quoted prices in active markets. The Company had no cash equivalents at December 31, 2017 or 2016 . Financial Instruments The fair value of the Company's financial instruments as of December 31, 2017 and 2016 are shown in Note 17 , " Financial Instruments ." The Company's financial instruments are classified as Level 2 assets and liabilities and are priced using quoted market prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets. Debt Obligations The fair value of the Company's debt is estimated based on quoted market rates as well as borrowing rates currently available for loans with similar terms and average maturities (Level 2 inputs) (in millions). December 31, 2017 December 31, 2016 Nominal Unpaid Principal Balance Aggregate Fair Value Nominal Unpaid Principal Balance Aggregate Fair Value Debt $ 2,174.3 $ 2,260.9 $ 2,215.3 $ 2,275.5 |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Equity and Earnings (Loss) Per Share | Equity and Earnings (Loss) Per Share Earnings (Loss) Per Share Basic earnings (loss) per share has been computed based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings (loss) per share has been computed based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of all potentially dilutive common stock equivalents, except when the effect would be anti-dilutive. On June 30, 2016, the Company effected a 1-for-15 reverse stock split. All share data, per share amounts and dilutive and antidilutive amounts have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the impact of the separation and conversion, including the reverse stock split, in the accompanying consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for all periods presented. The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share (in millions, except per share data). Year Ended December 31, 2017 2016 2015 Basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share: Numerator: Net income (loss), basic and diluted $ 160.3 $ (19.7 ) $ 111.3 Denominator: Basic weighted average common shares 28.3 28.3 30.2 Stock options, RSUs and PSUs (a) 0.3 — — Weighted average shares used to calculate diluted earnings (loss) per share 28.6 28.3 30.2 Earnings (loss) per share: Basic $ 5.66 $ (0.70 ) $ 3.69 Diluted $ 5.60 $ (0.70 ) $ 3.69 Antidilutive stock options, RSUs and PSUs (a) 0.4 0.3 — (a) The dilutive impact of stock options, RSUs and PSUs for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 and antidilutive impact for the year ended 2015 , rounds to zero for each period. Share Repurchase Program In March 2014, Hertz Holdings announced a $1.0 billion share repurchase program (the "Share Repurchase Program"), which replaced an earlier program. The Share Repurchase Program permits the Company, as the successor to Hertz Holdings, to purchase shares through a variety of methods, including in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions, in accordance with applicable securities laws. It does not obligate the Company to make any repurchases at any specific time or in any specific amount. The timing and extent to which the Company repurchases its shares will depend upon, among other things, market conditions, share price, liquidity targets, contractual restrictions and other factors. Share repurchases may be commenced or suspended at any time or from time to time, subject to legal and contractual requirements, without prior notice. During 2015, Hertz Holdings repurchased 2.5 million shares (on a reverse split adjusted basis) at an aggregate purchase price of approximately $604.5 million under the Share Repurchase Program. Repurchases are included in treasury stock in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. There were no share repurchases during the years ended December 31, 2017 or 2016 . As of December 31, 2017, the approximate dollar value that remains available for share purchases under the Share Repurchase Program is $395.9 million . |

The Registration Rights Agreement provides for customary demand and piggyback registration rights and obligations. Arrangements with New Hertz In connection with the Spin-Off, the Company entered into a separation and distribution agreement (the “Separation Agreement”) with New Hertz. In connection therewith, the Company also entered into various other ancillary agreements with New Hertz to effect the Spin-Off and provide a framework for its relationship with New Hertz. The following summarizes some of the most significant agreements and relationships that Herc Holdings continues to have with New Hertz. Separation and Distribution Agreement The Separation Agreement sets forth agreements with New Hertz relating to the Spin-Off and that govern aspects of the Company’s relationship with New Hertz following the Spin-Off, as follows: Internal Reorganization and Related Financing Transactions . The Separation Agreement provided for the transfers of entities and assets and assumptions of liabilities that were necessary to complete the Spin-Off, including the series of internal reorganization transactions such that New Hertz holds the entities associated with the vehicle rental business and the Company holds the entities associated with the equipment rental business. Pursuant to the Separation Agreement, Herc made certain cash transfers in the total amount of approximately $2.1 billion to New Hertz and its subsidiaries in 2016. Legal Matters and Claims; Sharing of Certain Liabilities . Subject to any specified exceptions, each party to the Separation Agreement assumed the liability for, and control of, all pending and threatened legal matters related to its own business, as well as assumed or retained liabilities, and will indemnify the other party for any liability arising out of or resulting from such assumed legal matters. The Separation Agreement provides for certain liabilities to be shared by the parties. New Hertz and the Company are each responsible for a portion of these shared liabilities (typically 15% for the Company), as set forth in the Separation Agreement. New Hertz is responsible for managing the settlement or other disposition of such shared liabilities. Other Matters. The Separation Agreement, among other things, (i) governed the transfer of assets and liabilities generally, (ii) terminated all intercompany arrangements between New Hertz and the Company except for specified agreements and arrangements, (iii) released certain claims between the parties and their affiliates, (iv) allocated expenses of the Spin-Off between the parties, (v) contains further assurances, terms and conditions that require New Hertz and the Company to use commercially reasonable efforts to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Separation Agreement and the ancillary agreements, and (vi) contains mutual indemnification clauses. Transition Services Agreement The Company entered into a TSA pursuant to which New Hertz or its affiliates provide specified services to the Company on a transitional basis to help ensure an orderly transition following the Spin-Off, although New Hertz may request certain transition services to be performed by the Company. The ongoing services being provided by New Hertz or its affiliates to the Company primarily consist of IT support. Other services previously provided by New Hertz or its affiliates after the Spin-Off included human resources, payroll and benefits; treasury; tax matters; network and telecommunications systems support; and administrative services. The TSA generally provides for a term of up to two years following the Spin-Off, though the recipient of the services may elect to terminate a service at any time upon advance written notice. During years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 , the Company incurred expenses of $18.4 million and $10.9 million , respectively, under the TSA which is included in "Direct operating" and "Selling, general and administrative" expenses in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. Tax Matters Agreement The Company entered into a tax matters agreement (the “Tax Matters Agreement”) with New Hertz that governs the parties' rights, responsibilities and obligations after the Spin-Off with respect to tax liabilities and benefits, tax attributes, tax contests and other tax matters regarding income taxes, other taxes and related tax returns. Under the Tax Matters Agreement, each party is responsible for their respective tax liabilities. The agreement provided for no compensation due to any change in a tax attribute, such as a net operating loss. Tax attributes were allocated between the entities based on the applicable federal or state income tax law and regulations. The Tax Matters Agreement also requires that an unqualified opinion from a nationally recognized law firm, supplemental ruling from the IRS, or waiver from the other party be obtained upon the occurrence or contemplated occurrence of certain events which could impact the taxability of the transaction under the U.S. federal income tax law. A tax return for 2016 was filed with six months activity of New Hertz and 12 months activity of Herc Holdings. Employee Matters Agreement The Company and New Hertz entered into an employee matters agreement to allocate liabilities and responsibilities relating to employment matters, employee compensation, benefit plans and programs and other related matters for current and former employees of the vehicle rental business and the equipment rental business. Intellectual Property Agreement The Company and New Hertz entered into an intellectual property agreement (the “Intellectual Property Agreement”) that provides for ownership, licensing and other arrangements regarding the trademarks and related intellectual property that New Hertz and the Company use in conducting their businesses. The Intellectual Property Agreement allocates ownership between New Hertz and the Company of all trademarks, domain names and certain copyrights that Hertz Holdings or its subsidiaries owned immediately prior to the Spin-Off. The Intellectual Property Agreement provides that the Company has the right to use certain intellectual property associated with the Hertz brand for a period of four years on a royalty-free basis. It also provides that, for so long as the Company continues to use certain intellectual property associated with the Hertz brand, the Company will not directly or indirectly engage in the business of renting and leasing cars, subject to certain exceptions, including that the Company may continue to rent vehicles to the extent Herc had done so immediately prior to the Spin-Off. Real Estate Arrangements The Company and New Hertz entered into certain real estate lease agreements pursuant to which the Company leases certain office space from New Hertz and New Hertz leases certain rental facilities space from the Company. Rent payments were negotiated based on comparable fair market rental rates. |

Under the Icahn Agreements, if the Icahn Group ceases to hold a “net long position,” as defined in the Nomination and Standstill Agreement, in at least (A) 1,900,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, the Icahn Group will cause one Icahn Designee to resign from the Company’s board of directors; (B) 1,520,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, the Icahn Group will cause two Icahn Designees to promptly resign from the Company's Board of Directors; and (C) 1,266,667 shares of the Company’s common stock, the Icahn Group will cause all of the Icahn Designees to promptly resign from the board of directors and the Company’s obligations under the Icahn Agreements will terminate. In addition, pursuant to the Icahn Agreements, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement, effective June 30, 2016 (the "Registration Rights Agreement"), with High River Limited Partnership, Icahn Partners LP and Icahn Partners Master Fund LP, on behalf of any person who is a member of the "Icahn group" (as such term is defined therein) who owns applicable securities at the relevant time and is or has become a party to the Registration Rights Agreement. The Registration Rights Agreement provides for customary demand and piggyback registration rights and obligations. Arrangements with New Hertz In connection with the Spin-Off, the Company entered into a separation and distribution agreement (the “Separation Agreement”) with New Hertz. In connection therewith, the Company also entered into various other ancillary agreements with New Hertz to effect the Spin-Off and provide a framework for its relationship with New Hertz. The following summarizes some of the most significant agreements and relationships that Herc Holdings continues to have with New Hertz. Separation and Distribution Agreement The Separation Agreement sets forth agreements with New Hertz relating to the Spin-Off and that govern aspects of the Company’s relationship with New Hertz following the Spin-Off, as follows: Internal Reorganization and Related Financing Transactions . The Separation Agreement provided for the transfers of entities and assets and assumptions of liabilities that were necessary to complete the Spin-Off, including the series of internal reorganization transactions such that New Hertz holds the entities associated with the vehicle rental business and the Company holds the entities associated with the equipment rental business. Pursuant to the Separation Agreement, Herc made certain cash transfers in the total amount of approximately $2.1 billion to New Hertz and its subsidiaries in 2016. Legal Matters and Claims; Sharing of Certain Liabilities . Subject to any specified exceptions, each party to the Separation Agreement assumed the liability for, and control of, all pending and threatened legal matters related to its own business, as well as assumed or retained liabilities, and will indemnify the other party for any liability arising out of or resulting from such assumed legal matters. The Separation Agreement provides for certain liabilities to be shared by the parties. New Hertz and the Company are each responsible for a portion of these shared liabilities (typically 15% for the Company), as set forth in the Separation Agreement. New Hertz is responsible for managing the settlement or other disposition of such shared liabilities. Other Matters. The Separation Agreement, among other things, (i) governed the transfer of assets and liabilities generally, (ii) terminated all intercompany arrangements between New Hertz and the Company except for specified agreements and arrangements, (iii) released certain claims between the parties and their affiliates, (iv) allocated expenses of the Spin-Off between the parties, (v) contains further assurances, terms and conditions that require New Hertz and the Company to use commercially reasonable efforts to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Separation Agreement and the ancillary agreements, and (vi) contains mutual indemnification clauses. Transition Services Agreement The Company entered into a TSA pursuant to which New Hertz or its affiliates provide specified services to the Company on a transitional basis to help ensure an orderly transition following the Spin-Off, although New Hertz may request certain transition services to be performed by the Company. The ongoing services being provided by New Hertz or its affiliates to the Company primarily consist of IT support. Other services previously provided by New Hertz or its affiliates after the Spin-Off included human resources, payroll and benefits; treasury; tax matters; network and telecommunications systems support; and administrative services. The TSA generally provides for a term of up to two years following the Spin-Off, though the recipient of the services may elect to terminate a service at any time upon advance written notice. During years ended December 31, 2017 and 2016 , the Company incurred expenses of $18.4 million and $10.9 million , respectively, under the TSA which is included in "Direct operating" and "Selling, general and administrative" expenses in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. Tax Matters Agreement The Company entered into a tax matters agreement (the “Tax Matters Agreement”) with New Hertz that governs the parties' rights, responsibilities and obligations after the Spin-Off with respect to tax liabilities and benefits, tax attributes, tax contests and other tax matters regarding income taxes, other taxes and related tax returns. Under the Tax Matters Agreement, each party is responsible for their respective tax liabilities. The agreement provided for no compensation due to any change in a tax attribute, such as a net operating loss. Tax attributes were allocated between the entities based on the applicable federal or state income tax law and regulations. The Tax Matters Agreement also requires that an unqualified opinion from a nationally recognized law firm, supplemental ruling from the IRS, or waiver from the other party be obtained upon the occurrence or contemplated occurrence of certain events which could impact the taxability of the transaction under the U.S. federal income tax law. A tax return for 2016 was filed with six months activity of New Hertz and 12 months activity of Herc Holdings. Employee Matters Agreement The Company and New Hertz entered into an employee matters agreement to allocate liabilities and responsibilities relating to employment matters, employee compensation, benefit plans and programs and other related matters for current and former employees of the vehicle rental business and the equipment rental business. Intellectual Property Agreement The Company and New Hertz entered into an intellectual property agreement (the “Intellectual Property Agreement”) that provides for ownership, licensing and other arrangements regarding the trademarks and related intellectual property that New Hertz and the Company use in conducting their businesses. The Intellectual Property Agreement allocates ownership between New Hertz and the Company of all trademarks, domain names and certain copyrights that Hertz Holdings or its subsidiaries owned immediately prior to the Spin-Off. The Intellectual Property Agreement provides that the Company has the right to use certain intellectual property associated with the Hertz brand for a period of four years on a royalty-free basis. It also provides that, for so long as the Company continues to use certain intellectual property associated with the Hertz brand, the Company will not directly or indirectly engage in the business of renting and leasing cars, subject to certain exceptions, including that the Company may continue to rent vehicles to the extent Herc had done so immediately prior to the Spin-Off. Real Estate Arrangements The Company and New Hertz entered into certain real estate lease agreements pursuant to which the Company leases certain office space from New Hertz and New Hertz leases certain rental facilities space from the Company. Rent payments were negotiated based on comparable fair market rental rates. |

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and footnotes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. Significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements include depreciation of revenue earning equipment, pension and postretirement benefits, the recoverability of long-lived assets, useful lives and impairment of long-lived tangible and intangible assets including goodwill and trade name, accounting for income taxes, valuation of stock-based compensation, reserves for litigation and other contingencies, allowances for receivables and, prior to the Spin-Off, allocated general corporate expenses from THC, among others. Since the Spin-Off occurred on June 30, 2016 , the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 (this "Report") represent the carve-out financial results for the first six months of 2016, including Spin-Off impacts, and the actual results for the last six months of 2016 and all of 2017. Amounts included for the year ended December 31, 2015 represent carve-out financial results. Principles of |
Principles of Consolidation | Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Herc Holdings and its wholly owned subsidiaries. In the event that the Company is a primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity, the assets, liabilities and results of operations of the variable interest entity are included in the Company's consolidated financial statements. The Company accounts for its investments in joint ventures using the equity method when it has significant influence but not control and is not the primary beneficiary. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Transactions between the Company and THC and its affiliates prior to the Spin-Off are herein referred to as "related party" or "affiliated" transactions. Effective with the Spin-Off on June 30, 2016 , all then-existing transactions with THC and its affiliates were settled and paid in full. Effective upon the Spin-Off, the Company entered into certain agreements with New Hertz, including a transition services agreement ("TSA"). See Note 21 , " Arrangements with New Hertz " for further information. For periods prior to the Spin-Off, the consolidated financial statements include net interest expense on loans receivable and payable to affiliates and expense allocations for certain corporate functions historically performed by THC, including, but not limited to, general corporate expenses related to finance, legal, information technology, human resources, communications, employee benefits and incentives, insurance and stock-based compensation. These expenses were allocated to the Company on the basis of direct usage when identifiable, with the remainder allocated on the basis of revenues, operating expenses, headcount or other relevant measures. Management believes the assumptions underlying the consolidated financial statements, including the assumptions regarding the allocation of corporate expenses from THC, are reasonable. Nevertheless, the consolidated financial statements may not include all of the expenses that would have been incurred had the Company been a stand-alone company during the periods presented and may not reflect the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows had the Company been a stand-alone company during the periods presented. Actual costs that would have been incurred if the Company had been a stand-alone company would have depended on multiple factors, including organizational structure and strategic decisions made in various areas, including information technology and infrastructure. For additional information related to costs allocated to the Company by THC prior to the Spin-Off, see Note 20 , " Related Party Transactions ." |
Reclassification of Prior Period Presentation | Reclassification of Prior Period Presentation Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified for consistency with the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on the reported consolidated balance sheets, results of operations, equity or cash flows for any period presented. |
Cash and Cash Equivalents | Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include cash on hand and highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less. |
Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents | Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents |
Concentration of Credit Risk | Concentration of Credit Risk The Company's cash and cash equivalents are held in checking accounts, various investment grade institutional money market accounts or bank term deposits. Deposits held at banks may exceed the amount of insurance provided on such deposits. Generally, these deposits may be redeemed upon demand and are maintained with financial institutions with reputable credit and therefore bear minimal credit risk. The Company seeks to mitigate such risks by spreading the risk across multiple counterparties and monitoring the risk profiles of these counterparties. In addition, the Company has credit risk from financial instruments used in hedging activities. The Company limits its exposure relating to financial instruments by diversifying the financial instruments among various counterparties, which consist of major financial institutions. No single customer accounted for more than 3% of the Company’s equipment rental revenue during the years ended December 31, 2017 , 2016 and 2015 . As of December 31, 2017 and 2016 , no single customer accounted for more than 3% of accounts receivable. |
Receivables | Receivables Receivables are stated net of allowances and represent credit extended to customers and manufacturers that satisfy defined credit criteria. The estimate of the allowance for doubtful accounts is based on the Company's historical experience and its judgment as to the likelihood of ultimate collection. Actual receivables are written-off against the allowance for doubtful accounts when the Company determines the balance will not be collected. Estimates for future credit memos are based on historical experience and are reflected as reductions to revenue, while the provision for bad debt is reflected as a component of "Selling, general and administrative expenses" in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. |
Inventory | Inventory Inventory is comprised of finished goods and consists of new equipment, supplies, tools, parts, fuel and related supply items. Inventory is stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value. Cost is determined by inventory type on the average cost method. |
Revenue Earning Equipment | Revenue Earning Equipment Revenue earning equipment is stated at cost, net of related discounts, with holding periods ranging from two to 15 years. Generally, when revenue earning equipment is acquired, the Company estimates the period that it will hold the asset, primarily based on historical measures of the amount of rental activity (e.g. equipment usage) and the targeted age of equipment at the time of disposal. The Company also estimates the residual value of the applicable revenue earning equipment at the expected time of disposal. The residual value for rental equipment is affected by factors which include equipment age and amount of usage. Depreciation is recorded over the estimated holding period. Depreciation rates are reviewed on a quarterly basis based on management's ongoing assessment of present and estimated future market conditions, their effect on residual values at the time of disposal and the estimated holding periods. Market conditions for used equipment sales can also be affected by external factors such as the economy, natural disasters, fuel prices, supply of similar used equipment, the market price for similar new equipment and incentives offered by manufacturers of new equipment. These key factors are considered when estimating future residual values and assessing depreciation rates. As a result of this ongoing assessment, the Company makes periodic adjustments to depreciation rates of revenue earning equipment in response to changed market conditions. For certain equipment at or nearing the end of its useful life, the Company considers the option of refurbishing the equipment as an alternative to replacing it based upon the economics of each alternative. Refurbishment costs that extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized and amortized over the remaining useful life of the asset. |
Property and Equipment | Property and Equipment Property and equipment are stated at cost and are depreciated utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the related assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the estimated useful lives of the related assets or leases, whichever is shorter. Useful lives are as follows: Buildings 8 to 33 years Service vehicles 3 to 13 years Machinery and equipment 1 to 15 years Computer equipment 1 to 5 years Furniture and fixtures 2 to 10 years Leasehold improvements The lesser of the economic life or the lease term The Company follows the practice of charging routine maintenance and repairs, including the cost of minor replacements, to maintenance expense. Costs of major replacements are capitalized and depreciated. |
Leases | Leases The Company leases certain property and equipment used in operations. If the lease is considered an operating lease, it is not recorded on the balance sheet and rent expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the expected lease term. Certain property and equipment are held under capital leases. These assets are included in property and equipment and depreciated over the term of the lease. Rent expense is not recognized for a capital lease. Rather, rental payments under the lease are recognized as a reduction of the capital lease obligation and interest expense. In certain instances, the Company may sell property and enter into an arrangement to lease the property back from the landlord. In these instances, the Company performs a sale-leaseback analysis to determine if the assets can be removed from the balance sheet. If certain criteria are met, the Company recognizes the transaction as a sale, removes the assets from its balance sheet and reflects the future rental payments as rent expense. If the criteria for sale is not met, such as available repurchase options or continuing involvement with the property, the Company is considered the owner for accounting purposes. In these instances, the Company is precluded from derecognizing the assets from its balance sheet and will continue to depreciate the assets over the expected lease term. In conjunction with these arrangements, the Company records a financing obligation equal to the cash proceeds or fair market value of the assets received from the landlord. Rent payments for these properties are recognized as interest expense and a reduction of the financing obligation using the effective interest method. At the end of the lease term, including exercise of any renewal options, the net remaining financing obligation over the net carrying value of the fixed asset will be recognized as a non-cash gain on sale of the property. |
Public Liability and Property Damage | Public Liability and Property Damage The obligation for public liability and property damage on self-insured U.S. and international equipment represents an estimate for both reported accident claims not yet paid, and claims incurred but not yet reported. The related liabilities are recorded on a non-discounted basis. Reserve requirements are based on actuarial evaluations of historical accident claim experience and trends, as well as future projections of ultimate losses, expenses, premiums and administrative costs. The adequacy of the liability is regularly monitored based on evolving accident claim history and insurance-related state legislation changes. If the Company's estimates change or if actual results differ from these assumptions, the amount of the recorded liability is adjusted to reflect these results. |
Defined Benefit Pension Plans and Other Employee Benefits | Defined Benefit Pension Plans and Other Employee Benefits The Company's employee pension costs and obligations are developed from actuarial valuations. Inherent in these valuations are key assumptions, including discount rates, salary growth, long-term return on plan assets, retirement rates, mortality rates and other factors. The selection of assumptions is based on historical trends and known economic and market conditions at the time of valuation, as well as independent studies of trends performed by actuaries. However, actual results may differ substantially from the estimates that were based on the critical assumptions. The Company uses a December 31 measurement date for all of the plans. Actual results that differ from the Company's assumptions are accumulated and amortized over future periods and, therefore, generally affect its recognized expense in such future periods. While management believes that the assumptions used are appropriate, significant differences in actual experience or significant changes in assumptions would affect the Company's pension costs and obligations. The Company maintains reserves for employee medical claims, up to its insurance stop-loss limit, and workers' compensation claims. These are regularly evaluated and revised, as needed, based on a variety of information, including historical experience, actuarial estimates and current employee statistics. |
Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions | Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions Assets and liabilities of international subsidiaries whose functional currency is the local currency are translated at the rate of exchange in effect on the balance sheet date; income and expenses are translated at the average exchange rates throughout the year. The related translation adjustments are reflected in “Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)” in the equity section of the Company's consolidated balance sheets. Foreign currency gains and losses resulting from transactions are included in earnings. |
Financial Instruments | Financial Instruments The Company is exposed to a variety of market risks, including the effects of changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. The Company manages exposure to these market risks through ongoing processes to monitor the impact of market changes and, when deemed appropriate, through the use of financial instruments. Financial instruments are viewed as risk management tools and have not been used for speculative or trading purposes. The Company accounts for all derivatives in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which requires that they be recorded on the balance sheet as either assets or liabilities measured at their fair value. For financial instruments that are designated and qualify as hedging instruments, the Company designates the hedging instrument, based upon the exposure being hedged, as either a fair value hedge or a cash flow hedge. The effective portion of changes in fair value of financial instruments designated as cash flow hedging instruments is recorded as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). Amounts included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for cash flow hedges are reclassified into earnings in the same period that the hedged item is recognized in earnings. The ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of financial instruments designated as cash flow hedges is recognized currently in earnings within the same line item as the hedged item, based upon the nature of the hedged item. For financial instruments that are not part of a qualified hedging relationship, the changes in their fair value are recognized currently in earnings. |
Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets | Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets On an annual basis and at interim periods when circumstances require, the Company tests the recoverability of its goodwill. The Company has one reporting unit and compares the carrying value of its reporting unit to its fair value. If the carrying value of the reporting unit is greater than its fair value, the Company recognizes an impairment charge for the amount equal to that excess. The fair value of the reporting unit is estimated using a combination of an income approach on the present value of estimated future cash flows and a market approach based on published earnings multiples of comparable entities with similar operations and economic characteristics as well as acquisition multiples paid in recent transactions. The Company’s discounted cash flows are based upon reasonable and appropriate assumptions, which are weighted for their likely probability of occurrence, about the underlying business activities of the Company. Indefinite-lived intangible assets, primarily our trade name, are not amortized but are evaluated annually for impairment and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of this asset may exceed its fair value. If the carrying value of an indefinite-lived intangible asset exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge is recognized in an amount equal to that excess. |
Finite-Lived Intangible and Long-Lived Assets | Finite-Lived Intangible and Long-Lived Assets Intangible assets include customer relationships and technology. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized using the straight-line method over the estimated economic lives of the assets, which range from three to 10 years. Long-lived assets, including intangible assets with finite lives, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of such assets may not be recoverable. Determination of recoverability is based on an estimate of undiscounted future cash flows resulting from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. Measurement of an impairment loss for long-lived assets that management expects to hold and use is based on the estimated fair value of the asset. Long-lived assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of carrying amount or estimated fair value less costs to sell. |
Revenue Recognition | Revenue Recognition On January 1, 2018, the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 606, Revenue with Contracts from Customers ("Topic 606") became effective. Topic 606 is the new revenue recognition guidance issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") as discussed below under "Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements." Topic 606 replaces ASC Topic 605, Revenue Recognition ("Topic 605"), which was the revenue recognition standard in effect during the three-year period ended December 31, 2017 . The Company has historically recorded revenue under Topic 605 and ASC Topic 840, Leases , ("Topic 840"). The table below summarizes the Company's revenue by type and by the accounting standard used to determine the accounting (in millions). Year Ended December 31, 2017 2016 2015 Topic 840 Topic 605 Total Topic 840 Topic 605 Total Topic 840 Topic 605 Total Revenues: Equipment rental $ 1,372.3 $ — $ 1,372.3 $ 1,247.1 $ — $ 1,247.1 $ 1,305.9 $ — $ 1,305.9 Other rental revenue: Delivery and pick-up — 75.2 75.2 — 66.9 66.9 — 73.6 73.6 Other 51.5 — 51.5 38.7 — 38.7 32.2 — 32.2 Total other rental revenues 51.5 75.2 126.7 38.7 66.9 105.6 32.2 73.6 105.8 Total equipment rentals 1,423.8 75.2 1,499.0 1,285.8 66.9 1,352.7 1,338.1 73.6 1,411.7 Sales of revenue earning equipment — 190.8 190.8 — 122.5 122.5 — 161.2 161.2 Sales of new equipment, parts and supplies — 52.3 52.3 — 68.2 68.2 — 92.1 92.1 Service and other revenues — 12.4 12.4 — 11.4 11.4 — 13.2 13.2 Total revenues $ 1,423.8 $ 330.7 $ 1,754.5 $ 1,285.8 $ 269.0 $ 1,554.8 $ 1,338.1 $ 340.1 $ 1,678.2 Topic 840 revenues Equipment rental Equipment rental revenue includes revenue generated from renting equipment to customers and is recognized on a straight-line basis over the length of the rental contract. Equipment is available for rent on a daily, weekly or monthly basis with most rental agreements cancellable upon return of the equipment. Also included in equipment rental revenue is re-rent revenue in which the Company will rent from vendors and then rent to its customers. Re-rent revenue is accounted for in the same manner as equipment rental revenue generated from the Company's owned revenue earning equipment. Provisions for discounts, rebates to customers and other adjustments are provided for in the period the related revenue is recorded. Other Other equipment rental revenue is primarily comprised of fees for the rental protection program which allows customers to limit their risk of financial loss in the event the Company's equipment is damaged or lost and environmental charges associated with the rental of equipment. Topic 605 revenues Delivery and pick-up Delivery and pick-up revenue associated with renting equipment is recognized when the services are performed. Sales of revenue earning equipment, new equipment, parts and supplies Revenue from the sale of revenue earning equipment, new equipment, parts and supplies is recognized at the time the customer takes possession, when collectability is reasonably assured and when all obligations under the sales contract have been fulfilled. The Company generally recognizes revenue from the sale of new equipment purchased from other companies based on the gross amount billed as the Company establishes its own pricing and retains related inventory risk, is the primary obligor in sales transactions with its customers, and assumes the credit risk for amounts billed to its customers. Service and other Service and other revenue is primarily revenue earned from providing repair and maintenance to revenue earning equipment owned by the Company's customers. Service revenue is recognized as the services are performed. Sales tax amounts collected from customers and remitted to governmental authorities are accounted for on a net basis and therefore excluded from revenue. |
Advertising | Advertising Advertising and sales promotion costs are expensed the first time the advertising or sales promotion takes place. Advertising costs are reflected as a component of "Selling, general and administrative" expense in the Company's consolidated statements of operations. |
Stock Based Compensation | Stock Based Compensation Under the Company's stock based compensation plans, certain employees and members of the Company's board of directors have received grants of restricted stock units, performance stock units and stock options for Herc Holdings common stock. The Company measures the cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments based on the grant date fair value of the award. That cost is recognized over the period during which the employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award. The Company estimates the fair value of options issued at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which includes assumptions related to volatility, expected term, dividend yield and risk-free interest rate. The Company accounts for restricted stock unit and performance stock unit awards as equity classified awards. For restricted stock units, the expense is based on the grant date fair value of the stock and the number of shares that vest, recognized over the service period. For performance stock units, the expense is based on the grant date fair value of the stock, recognized over a service period depending upon the applicable performance condition. For performance stock units, the Company re-assesses the probability of achieving the applicable performance condition each reporting period and adjusts the recognition of expense accordingly. |
Income Taxes | Income Taxes The Company’s operations are subject to U.S. federal, state and local, and foreign income taxes, portions of which have historically been included in the Hertz Holdings consolidated U.S. federal income tax return, along with certain state and local and foreign income tax returns. In preparing its combined financial statements for periods prior to the Spin-Off, the Company has determined the tax provision for those operations that are included in the Hertz Holdings consolidated tax return on a separate company return basis, assuming that the Company had filed on a stand-alone basis separate from Hertz Holdings (“Separate Return Basis”). The current and deferred tax related balances and related tax carryforwards reflected in the Company’s combined financial statements for periods prior to the Spin-Off have been determined on a Separate Return Basis. As a result, the tax balances and carryforwards on the Company’s tax returns post Spin-Off, including net operating losses and tax credits, will be different from those reflected in the combined financial statements. In addition, as a consequence of the Company’s inclusion in the Hertz Holdings' consolidated income tax returns, the Company is severally liable, with other members of the consolidated group, for any additional taxes that may be assessed. There are no unrecognized tax benefits based on the Herc operations prior to the Spin-Off reflected in these combined financial statements. Herc's LKE Program was in place for several years. Pursuant to the program, Herc disposed of equipment and acquires replacement equipment in a form intended to allow such dispositions and replacements to qualify as tax-deferred "like-kind exchanges" pursuant to Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code ("Section 1031"). The program had resulted in deferral of federal and state income taxes in prior years. The 2017 Tax Act eliminated the eligibility of personal property for Section 1031 treatment. The 2017 Tax Act also enacted an election to immediately expense all purchases of new and used personal property placed in service after September 27, 2017. As a result of the 2017 Tax Act, the Company ceased its LKE Program and therefore reflects zero restricted cash as of December 31, 2017 . The Company applies the provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification Topic 740, Income Taxes ("ASC 740"), and computes the provision for income taxes on a Separate Return Basis. Under ASC 740, deferred tax assets and liabilities are determined based on differences between the financial statement carrying amounts and tax bases of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the differences are expected to reverse. The effect of a change in tax rates is recognized in the statement of operations in the period that includes the enactment date. The Company records a valuation allowance to reduce its deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. Subsequent changes to enacted tax rates and changes in the interpretations thereof will result in deferred taxes and any related valuation allowances. Provisions are not made for income taxes on undistributed earnings of international subsidiaries that are intended to be indefinitely reinvested outside of the United States or are expected to be remitted free of taxes. Future distributions, if any, from these international subsidiaries to the United States or changes in U.S. tax rules may require a charge to reflect tax on these amounts. In accordance with ASC 740, the Company recognizes, in its consolidated financial statements, the impact of the Company's tax positions that are more likely than not to be sustained upon examination based on the technical merits of the positions. The Company recognizes interest and penalties for uncertain tax positions in income tax expense. |
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements | Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Adopted Simplifying the Subsequent Measurement of Inventory In July 2015, the FASB issued guidance that requires inventory to be measured at the lower of cost and net realizable value (rather than cost or market), excluding inventory measured using the last-in, first-out method or the retail inventory method. Net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling prices in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal and transportation. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2017 in accordance with the effective date. Adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance that eliminates the requirement to apply the equity method of accounting retrospectively when significant influence over a previously held investment is obtained. Rather, the guidance requires the investor to add the cost of acquiring the additional interest in the investee to the current basis of the investor’s previously held interest and adopt the equity method of accounting as of the date the investment becomes qualified for equity method of accounting. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2017 in accordance with the effective date. Adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting In March 2016, the FASB issued guidance that simplifies several areas of employee share-based payment accounting, including: (i) eliminating tracking of tax "windfalls" in a separate pool within additional paid-in capital; instead, excess tax benefits and tax deficiencies are recorded within income tax expense; (ii) eliminating the requirement that excess tax benefits be realized before they can be recognized, which is required to be recorded as an adjustment to opening retained earnings with respect to which the Company recorded a $2.5 million adjustment upon adoption; (iii) presentation of excess tax benefits as an operating activity on the statement of cash flows, which had no impact on the Company; (iv) presentation of employee taxes paid directly to a taxing authority when directly withholding shares for tax-withholding purposes as a financing activity on the statement of cash flows, which had no impact as the Company has historically followed this presentation and (v) making a policy election regarding treatment of forfeitures, with respect to which the Company will continue to estimate forfeitures. The Company adopted this guidance on January 1, 2017 in accordance with the effective date. Adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company's consolidated statement of operations. Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities In August 2017, the FASB issued guidance that amends the hedge accounting recognition and presentation requirements to improve the transparency and understandability of information conveyed to financial statement users about an entity’s risk management activities. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods therein; however, early adoption is permitted. The Company adopted this guidance in the third quarter of 2017 using a modified retrospective approach, as required, which did not have a significant impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment In January 2017, the FASB issued guidance to simplify the subsequent measurement of goodwill by removing the second step of the two-step impairment test. The guidance requires that an entity recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount of the reporting unit exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted this guidance in the fourth quarter of 2017 when it performed its annual goodwill impairment test as of October 1, 2017. Adoption of the guidance did not impact the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Not Yet Adopted Revenue from Contracts with Customers In May 2014, the FASB issued guidance that will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP. The new guidance applies to all contracts with customers except for leases, insurance contracts, financial instruments, certain nonmonetary exchanges and certain guarantees. The core principle of the guidance is that an entity should recognize revenue for the transfer of goods or services equal to the amount that it expects to be entitled to receive for those goods or services. The new principles-based revenue recognition model requires an entity to perform five steps in its analysis: (i) identify the contract(s) with a customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the entity satisfies a performance obligation. Under the new guidance, performance obligations in a contract will be separately identified, which may impact the timing of recognition of the revenue allocated to each obligation. The measurement of revenue recognized may also be impacted by identification of new performance obligations and other matters, such as collectability and variable consideration. Also, additional disclosures are required about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from customer contracts, including significant judgments and changes in judgments. The new guidance may be adopted on either a full or modified retrospective basis. As originally issued, the guidance was effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, including interim periods within those reporting periods. However, in July 2015, the FASB agreed to defer the effective date until annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. In March 2016, the FASB issued clarifying guidance on assessing whether an entity is a principal or an agent in a revenue transaction, which impacts whether an entity reports revenue on a gross or net basis. In April 2016, the FASB issued guidance that reduces the complexity for identifying performance obligations and clarifies the implementation guidance on licensing for intellectual property. In May 2016, the FASB issued guidance that clarifies the collectability criterion, the presentation of sales taxes and non-cash consideration, and provides additional implementation practical expedients. The Company expects to adopt the new revenue guidance on January 1, 2018 using the modified retrospective approach. The Company's accounting for equipment rental revenue is primarily outside of the scope of the new revenue guidance and will be evaluated under the new lease guidance, which is described further under the subheading "Leases" below. The Company's review of its revenue accounting with respect to sales of revenue earning equipment, sales of new equipment, parts and supplies and service and other revenue is ongoing; however, the Company does not believe this guidance will have a significant impact on its financial statements. Additionally, the Company is evaluating the disclosure requirements of the new revenue guidance which requires the Company to disaggregate revenue into categories that depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. The Company has provided a disaggregation of its revenue under the heading "Revenue Recognition" above and anticipates it will disaggregate revenues consistent with this presentation upon adoption. The Company is also assessing the impact of the guidance on its internal control over financial reporting. Leases In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance that replaces the existing lease guidance. The new guidance establishes a right-of-use (“ROU”) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases will be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. This guidance also expands the requirements for lessees to record leases embedded in other arrangements and the required quantitative and qualitative disclosures surrounding leases. Accounting guidance for lessors is largely unchanged. This guidance is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018 and interim periods within those annual periods using a modified retrospective transition approach. The Company is in the process of assessing the potential impacts of adopting this guidance on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Statement of Cash Flows: Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments In August 2016, the FASB issued guidance to eliminate the diversity in practice related to the classification of certain cash receipts and payments in the statement of cash flows, by adding or clarifying guidance on eight specific cash flow issues. This guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company expects to adopt this guidance upon its effective date of January 1, 2018 and does not expect the guidance to have a significant impact on its cash flows. Statement of Cash Flows: Restricted Cash In November 2016, the FASB issued guidance requiring restricted cash and cash equivalents to be included with cash and cash equivalents on the statement of cash flows. This guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company expects to adopt this guidance upon its effective date of January 1, 2018 and does not expect the guidance to have a significant impact on its cash flows. Income Taxes: Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory In October 2016, the FASB issued guidance requiring an entity to recognize upon transfer the income tax consequences of an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory, eliminating the current recognition exception. Two common examples of assets included in the scope of this standard are intellectual property and property, plant and equipment. This guidance is effective for annual and interim reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company expects to adopt this guidance upon its effective date of January 1, 2018 and does not expect the guidance to have a significant impact on its financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Improving the Presentation of Net Periodic Pension Cost and Net Periodic Postretirement Benefit Costs In March 2017, the FASB issued guidance on the presentation of net periodic pension and postretirement benefit costs in the income statement and on the components eligible for capitalization. The guidance requires the reporting of the service cost component of the net periodic benefit costs in the same income statement line item as other components of net periodic costs arising from services rendered by an employee during the period, and that non-service cost components be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost components and outside a subtotal of income from operations. The guidance also allows for the capitalization of the service cost components, when applicable. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company expects to adopt this guidance upon its effective date of January 1, 2018. Adoption of this guidance will not have a significant impact on the Company's results of operations. Compensation - Stock Compensation In May 2017, the FASB issued guidance pursuant to which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting. Under the updated guidance, a modification is defined as a change in the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award, and an entity should account for the effects of a modification unless all of the following are met: 1. The fair value of the modified award is the same as the fair value of the original award immediately before the original award is modified. If the modification does not affect any of the inputs to the valuation techniques that the entity uses to value the award, the entity is not required to estimate the value immediately before and after the modification. 2. The vesting conditions of the modified award are the same as the vesting conditions of the original award immediately before the original award is modified. 3. The classification of the modified award as an equity instrument or a liability instrument is the same as the classification of the original award immediately before the original award is modified. This guidance requires prospective adoption and is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017, with early adoption permitted. The Company expects to adopt this guidance upon its effective date of January 1, 2018 and does not expect the guidance to have a significant impact on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income In February 2018, the FASB issued guidance that allows reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for certain tax effects resulting from the 2017 Tax Act that would otherwise be stranded in accumulated other comprehensive income. This guidance is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2018, with early adoption permitted. The Company is in the process of assessing the potential impacts of adopting this guidance on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows. |
