I have enormous confidence in AMC and the 2026/2027 box office. So today, using my own money, I bought 250,000 more AMC shares personally, at market price.
I now own outright 2,437,020 AMC shares, raising the total where I have an economic interest to 12,322,429 AMC shares*
It actually can be very hard for a CEO of a public company to buy shares. You have to clear having possession of any material non public information, sort out implications of any ongoing debt and equity transactions, and not be in a quiet period before when earnings will be announced. I was finally in a position to buy even more AMC shares today, and I did.
As I said, I have great confidence in AMCโs future. So, again today, I put my money where my mouth is.
This brings my holdings up to 12.3 million shares* of AMC common stock. My understanding is that I have been, and now even more so I remain, AMCโs biggest individual retail investor.
I should probably mention that I have not sold even a single share of AMC stock since January of 2022, more than four years ago.
I RIDE WITH YOU !!!

(*For precision: this includes AMC shares I already own, and those which previously have been granted to me as part of my annual compensation and which will vest based on length of service and at target levels of performance over the next thirty three months, on a pre-tax basis.)
Wow !!! Big !!!
Super Mario, Project Hail Mary and so many more movies led AMC Entertainment to recording our highest ever revenues globally for a 5-day Easter weekend (Wednesday to Sunday) in our companyโs 106-year history.
More than 6 million moviegoers were in our theatres.
These are just some of the blockbusters coming out in 2026.
I havenโt been more optimistic about a growing industry-wide box office in years.
Itโs my firm belief and expectation based on what I know now that 2026 will represent the biggest box office performance since 2019.
Another extraordinary Super Mario statistic.
Our movie themed merchandise sold at our theatres has become very popular, and we often sell out.
Expecting that The Super Mario Galaxy Movie would be a huge success, for AMC Theatres in the U.S. we ordered more than 500,000 themed units for retail sale, a massive and far bigger quantity of movie themed merchandise than we previously had ordered for any other movie since October of 2023 (we also ordered huge quantity for our 2023 movie Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour).
In just the first three days, we already have sold more Super Mario themed product than for any other movie since Taylorโs concert film in 2023.
Indeed, through only Friday, we already have sold about two-thirds of our total available inventory.
We should be at or close to being fully sold out by this Sunday โ and totally sold out by the coming midweek or certainly by next weekend.

Project Hail Mary is the highest grossing movie of 2026 so far, a record it likely will hold for only 12 days.

The Super Mario Galaxy Movie opens today, and in my view it is sure to post sky high attendance and revenue numbers.
Only in Theatres.
