Getting soooo close to another milestone and bringing my average down close to green. I never believed in something more in my life.
Proud of everything I have learned and appreciate the knowledge I gained along the way from you all.
Shoulder to shoulder we are a force!

THE DAY AFTER. It was such a distinct pleasure, so immensely satisfying, to be able to report to you yesterday that our second quarter of 2026 with $321.4 million of Adjusted EBITDA was the single best quarterly result in AMC’s entire 106-year history.
With 71 million guests in our theatres, we also had the highest revenues in AMC history, and managed our costs well.
We have generated $228 million more EBITDA in the first half of 2026 than we did in the first half last year.
We finished the quarter with $778 million of cash on hand.
The best way to silence the critics and make the naysayers irrelevant is to produce undeniably good results, in this case for Q2 record results, and that is precisely what AMC has been doing throughout 2026.
To those Apes who stood by us along the way, and especially to those who are with us still, I am not exaggerating in saluting the role you all played in saving moviegoing and saving movie theatres and saving AMC.
Because of your support, your children and grandchildren should be able to continue to enjoy… in theatres… seeing dazzling images on our huge silver screens, just as people have done to their great delight for more than a century.

On Monday (July 20), before the market opens, AMC will announce our financial results for the 2nd quarter of 2026.
Many of you will be keenly interested to learn more as to our performance so far in 2026.
The Domestic Box Office: ticket grosses for all U.S. & Canadian theatres.
Q2 2026: $2.974 billion. That’s the biggest quarter since Q2 2019, and the 5th biggest of the 200 quarters of the past 50 years.
How many times have I heard some idiot say that movie theatres are dead?
Ending the second quarter on a bang not a wimper, the Domestic Box Office will be up by around 20% versus the same weekend last year.
The quarter should end at $3 billion industrywide, perhaps a hare under or over, clearly the highest q2 industry numbers since 2019.
Cumulatively, January 1 to June 30, the Domestic Box Office will be up about $600 million year over year.
With a strong July ahead of us, that number will grow even more soon.
Hello Minions, Moana, Odyssey and Spider-man.
Halllelujah.
It’s official. Toy Story 5 had the biggest domestic opening weekend gross of any movie so far in 2026, with a media reported $160 million. It’s the 7th different movie in the past three months to have a domestic opening gross above $75 million, which Toy Story 5 far exceeded.
As for AMC, in the U.S., we posted the highest attendance, highest ticket revenues and highest food & beverage revenues of any weekend so far in 2026.
In all, 4.8 million guests visited our theatres globally Thursday to Sunday.
We congratulate our friends at Disney and Pixar, as well as all the film makers behind Toy Story 5, for their delivering a theatrical event that clearly connected with audiences. Toy Story 5 scored a dazzling 94% from critics and 95% from moviegoers on Rotten Tomatoes.
And given our close dealings with Taylor Swift over the past several years, we also want to highlight and salute Taylor’s #1 chart-topping smash hit song, ‘I Knew It, I Knew You,’ which she wrote and performed for TOY STORY 5.
Movie after movie is doing so very well in theatres. With so many major releases coming to theatres across the entire summer, and especially so in July (led by Minions & Monsters, Moana, The Odyssey and Spider-Man: Brand New Day), we have every confidence to expect that our momentum will continue.
