DOLLAR THRIFTY AUTOMOTIVE GROUP REPORTS FOURTH
QUARTER AND FULL YEAR RESULTS

2006 Record Revenues of $1.7 Billion, Up 10%

Tulsa, Oklahoma, February 28, 2007: Dollar Thrifty Automotive Group, Inc. (NYSE: DTG) today reported results for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2006. Total revenue for the fourth quarter was $392.8 million, up 11.5 percent from the comparable 2005 quarter. The net loss for the 2006 quarter was $2.7 million, or $0.11 per diluted share, including $0.10 per share of transition costs related to the outsourcing of information technology services and the unfavorable impact of $0.05 per share related to the decrease in fair value of derivatives. For the fourth quarter of 2005, net income was $8.2 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, including the favorable impact of $0.11 per share related to the increase in fair value of derivatives.

For the year ended December 31, 2006, the Company’s revenue was a record $1.7 billion, a 10.2 percent increase over the prior year. Net income for 2006 was $51.7 million, or $2.04 per diluted share, including $0.17 per share of transition costs related to the outsourcing of information technology services and the unfavorable impact of $0.22 per share related to the decrease in fair value of derivatives. For 2005, net income was $76.4 million, or $2.89 per diluted share, including the favorable impact of $0.66 per share related to the increase in fair value of derivatives.

For the 2006 fourth quarter, vehicle rental revenues were $366.1 million, a 12.8 percent increase over the 2005 fourth quarter as a result of a 10.8 percent increase in revenue per day and a 1.8 percent increase in rental days. Same store rental days were down approximately four percent from last year’s fourth quarter.

“The key trends for the fourth quarter were a very strong pricing environment, and significantly higher vehicle depreciation and interest costs as compared to the prior year,” said Gary L. Paxton, President and Chief Executive Officer. “We continued to tighten our vehicle capacity and raise rental pricing which had a negative effect on rental day volume.”

During the quarter, the Company acquired the Thrifty Car Rental franchises in San Antonio and Reno. Franchise acquisitions have been a strong driver for growth since the program began in January of 2003. During 2006, the Company acquired a total of 12 Dollar Rent A Car and Thrifty Car Rental franchises, representing 16 cities and adding more than 6,000 vehicles to the corporate rental fleet. In February 2007, the Thrifty Car Rental franchise operations in Seattle and Portland were acquired. This acquisition added another 2,500 vehicles to the corporate rental fleet. The Company will continue to acquire franchise operations as they become available at values that meet return on investment goals.

“Other major accomplishments in 2006 included the completion of several key initiatives to further improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the organization,” said Paxton. “These initiatives included the completion of a five-year information services technology agreement and the realignment and streamlining of the management structure. In early February 2007, we announced our decision to outsource a portion of our call center operations which will reduce our call center costs.”

DTG purchased 450,000 shares in the fourth quarter under its $300 million share repurchase program at a total cost of $19.4 million. For the full year DTG purchased 2,558,900 shares at a total cost of $111.3 million. The Company has $188.7 million of remaining authorization expected to be completed by December 31, 2008.

Outlook

“We continue to be optimistic about the travel environment in 2007,” Paxton said. “We will again be challenged by higher vehicle financing costs and significantly higher vehicle depreciation costs. We estimate depreciation costs per vehicle will increase about 25 percent in 2007 based on our expectation of a stable used car market. Based on recent industry trends, we are optimistic that we can achieve strong price increases in 2007. Our challenge will be balancing price increases with the corresponding effects on volume to optimize our results. We remain focused on achieving cost efficiencies and have identified additional opportunities that we are working to achieve. For the full year, we are planning for a 7 to 9 percent increase in revenue per day and for same store rental days to be flat to down slightly as compared to 2006. Based on those factors, along with increased spending for marketing and other inflationary pressures on our business, we estimate 2007 earnings per share in the range of $2.50 to $2.90. We expect year-over-year comparisons to be more significantly impacted in the first half of the year by higher vehicle depreciation costs, higher vehicle financing costs and outsourcing transition costs. This guidance range excludes the impact of any increases or decreases in fair value of derivatives.”
