Shares of Hertz Global Holdings surged after hedge-fund manager Bill Ackman's firm disclosed a significant stake in the rental-car company.

The Ackman-led Pershing Square Capital Management said in a securities filing on Wednesday that it has accrued 12.7 million shares of Hertz stock. That represents about 4.1% of the company's 307.9 million outstanding shares, according to FactSet.

The stock was up 19% at $4.33 ahead of the opening bell. Shares were trading at $6.57 this time a year ago and closed at a record low of $2.62 last September.

Hertz shares have steadily declined since the company emerged from bankruptcy in 2021 and made a big bet on electric vehicles that drove up its operating costs. The company has since been working to unwind that investment, incurring depreciation costs along the way.
