LEAWOOD, Kan.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–AMC Entertainment Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: AMC) (the “Company,” or “AMC”), today announced that it has reached an agreement with certain holders of its Muvico, LLC Senior Secured Notes due 2029 (“2029 Notes”) that will, among other things, provide the Company with the flexibility to refinance its existing term loan credit agreement and the 12.75% Odeon Senior Secured Notes due 2027, with new debt that may be secured and guaranteed by the Company, and its Odeon and Muvico subsidiaries. Any such refinancing would be expected to extend the maturity of the refinanced debt and reduce the related interest expense.
Commenting on the lender agreement, AMC Chairman and CEO Adam Aron said, “Thanks to the ongoing support of our lenders, we have enhanced our flexibility to streamline and simplify our capital structure, reduce our cost of capital, improve our liquidity and efficiently address upcoming debt maturities. We remain resolute in our ongoing pursuit of strengthening our balance sheet and this collaborative agreement with our supportive noteholders is yet another step to ensure that AMC is best positioned to capitalize on the industry’s anticipated recovery trajectory.”
AMC also released preliminary results for the three months and full year ended December 31, 2025. The preliminary results are unaudited, subject to completion of the Company’s financial reporting processes, based on information known by management as of the date of this press release and do not represent a comprehensive statement of our financial results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2025. AMC expects:
Three Months Ended December 31, 2025 Preliminary Results
- Total revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2025, to be approximately $1,288.3 million compared to $1,306.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024.
- Net loss for the three months ended December 31, 2025, to be approximately $(127.4) million compared to a net loss of $(135.6) million for the three months ended December 31, 2024.
- Adjusted EBITDA to be approximately $134.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2025, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $164.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024.
- Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2025 to be $428.5 million, excluding restricted cash of $48.8 million.
Full Year Ended December 31, 2025 Preliminary Results
- Total revenues for the full year ended December 31, 2025, to be approximately $4,848.9 million compared to $4,637.2 million for the full year ended December 31, 2024.
- Net loss for the full year ended December 31, 2025, to be approximately $(632.4) million compared to a net loss of $(352.6) million for the full years ended December 31, 2024.
- Adjusted EBITDA to be approximately $387.5 million for the full year ended December 31, 2025, compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $343.9 million for the full year ended December 31, 2024.
Full year 2025 preliminary Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $388 million was achieved in a North American industry box office of approximately $8.9 billion and European industry attendance of approximately 397 million1.
1 Obtained from industry trade sources, and in the case of European industry attendance represents industry attendance for the countries in which Odeon Cinemas Group operates.
AMC’s results are leveraged to the industry box office in which it operates. While AMC does not provide guidance, as disclosed in the proxy statement filed with the SEC on October 24, 2025, internal modeling for the 2024 annual incentive plan assumes that for each approximately $100 million increase in the North American industry box office, the Company would expect domestic Adjusted EBITDA to increase by approximately $18 million, and for each approximately five million increase in European industry attendance, the Company would expect International Adjusted EBITDA to increase by approximately $8 million. These estimates are broadly applicable for 2025. These are merely estimates, and actual results in future years may vary depending on factors including, but not limited to, revenue and costs per patron, cost structure, relative box office performance in different geographies, and market share.
Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure and tables reconciling this non-GAAP financial measure to its closest respective GAAP financial measures are included in this press release.
Commenting on the preliminary results, AMC Chairman and CEO Adam Aron said, “2025 marked another important step forward for both AMC and the theatrical exhibition industry. Albeit not the industry growth we anticipated, the box office improved modestly year-over-year, rising approximately 1.5%, while AMC once again outperformed, growing total revenue by 4.6% and Adjusted EBITDA by nearly 13% compared to 2024. This outperformance reflects our relentless focus on operating improvements and portfolio optimization and further demonstrates our leadership in the guest experience through world-class marketing and loyalty programs, innovative food and beverage variety and best-in-class premium large format offerings.”
Aron concluded, “Looking ahead, we are increasingly optimistic about 2026. Encouragingly, the first quarter box office year-to-date is already approximately 9% ahead of the same period last year, and we believe the highly anticipated film slate for the remainder of the year should drive very significant industry growth. With titles such as SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY, AVENGERS: DOOMSDAY, MOANA, DUNE: PART THREE, and THE ODYSSEY, among many others, we believe AMC is well positioned to capture that growth through our unrivaled theatre footprint, industry leading premium formats, engaging loyalty programs, and concessions and merchandise offerings.”
AMC will report its full results for the three months and full year ended December 31, 2025, after the market closes on Tuesday, February 24, 2026.
