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.
It’s a hit beyond a hit.
Audiences are LOVING the new F1 movie from Apple Original Films and Warner Bros. Now at AMC and Odeon.
Don’t miss seeing this global phenomenon on its opening weekend.
Needless to say, Tom knows something about movies, and of course Tom is right.
F1 with Brad Pitt is such an enjoyable movie. Opens this Friday at AMC all over the U.S.
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?
Exactly as AMC predicted, the theatrical box office has been roaring hot the past two months. Per https://t.co/ZhBAvPr7hy, here are the numbers which speak loudly.

As we look at the balance of 2025, this is how we feel right about now. And in the it’s so good department, we believe that the film slate for 2026 will gross even more than that of 2025.
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.
