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 AMC’s 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, AMC’s 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.)
Isn’t it so incredibly ironic.
On the same weekend that Super Mario is delighting millions of moviegoers, NASA launched Artemis II with a go to its translunar burn.
Which means, for the first time since 1972, mankind is heading…
… TO THE MOON.

let's find out
I'll add a second one in the comment section for higher amounts

A bit surprised there are still people around expressing an opinion about $AMC while considerably lagging behind on vital information. As @CEOAdam stated at the Q1 earnings call, #AMC is cash flow positive from beginning of Q2.
Case against @AMCTheatres has been dismissed with prejudice.
Another W for retail, and another L for shorts who have yet to close their positions!
THEY CAN'T CLOSE THEIR POSITIONS‼️
THEY DONT HAVE ENOUGH SHARES TO COVER ALL THEIR SWAPS AND DERIVATIVES‼️

AMC Entertainment has successfully closed refinancing transactions that strengthen our Balance Sheet and position us to prosper from the current robust box office recovery.
Watch out world, we look to the future with optimism, momentum and confidence.

This is enormously good news for AMC.
Today, AMC issued a press release with a major announcement that is one of the more important developments in AMC's multi-year effort to fight back from the ravages that COVID prompted in 2020 (and its resulting aftermath since) both on the movie theatre industry generally and on our company specifically.
Today we announced that AMC has signed a collaborative agreement with some of our most key lenders. If consented to by our Term Loan Lenders through a public consent process being launched today, it will do all of this:
1. Bring more than $220 million into our company's treasury through the issuance of new debt which can be used to refinance 2026 debt principal repayment obligations.
2. Convert $143 million of debt into equity now, and set in motion a path that could convert even more debt to equity up to a total of $337 million, each of which significantly further delevers AMC.
3. Fully resolve the litigation from some of the holders of our 7.5% Senior Secured Notes, that arose from our also substantial activity in the summer of 2024 to refinance much of our debt that previously was due in 2026 and now is not due until 2029 and 2030.
This strengthening of our balance sheet is the result of highly complex negotiations, and is clear evidence that we have vital and strong support from so many of our lenders.
And it comes at a time when the growing box office since April has been roaring loudly. Thank you to Minecraft, Sinners, Lilo & Stitch, Thunderbolts*, Final Destination Bloodlines, Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning, How to Train Your Dragon, F1, Jurassic World Rebirth, Superman and so many more appealing movies!
For full details, I urge you to read the press release that AMC issued this morning and/or our 8-K that was filed with the SEC.

Our lawyers want me to add this standard caution about any so-called Forward-Looking Statements. See my follow-on tweet.
To be a leader, you need to lead.
At a time when Americans seem generally fed up with rising consumer prices, I think it’s absolutely vital that AMC take the lead in offering bargains for moviegoers who want them.
That’s why starting July 9, AMC is slashing our prices with 50% admission ticket discounts on all Wednesdays going forward.
For AMC Stubs members only, but it is free, easy and instantaneous to join Stubs.
AMC’s new low Wednesday prices join our other bargain offerings — like Discount Tuesdays, pricing of Matinees, Stubs members earned benefits, along with the greatest bargain of them all: our A-List program that enables you to watch a lot movies each week at a mere fraction of the normal retail price.
How is that for an every Wednesday plot twist?
And this so classy message from @TomCruise about our “weekend for the history books” comes from one of the greatest filmmakers of the 21st century. Thank you, Tom. @AMCTheatres and @ODEONCinemas salutes you and those who create great stories under your leadership.

We are tired of being naked shorted to death!
We demand it stops.
My vote in midterms will go to whichever person or party gets fixed the market and promises to enforce the laws against naked shorted selling!

3 million AMC shares are being offered at a fraction of a penny.
This is called "spoofing" and is illegal market manipulation by large institutional players to bring the price of a stock down. The order is then canceled before fulfillment.
