Herc Holdings Inc. (NYSE: HRI) (“Herc Holdings” or the “Company”) today announced that it has priced $800 million aggregate principal amount of 6.625% senior unsecured notes due 2029 (the “notes”) in a private offering exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
