What AMC Entertainment does
AMC Entertainment runs movie theatres in the United States and Europe. At the end of 2025 it owned, leased or operated 855 theatres with 9,640 screens in 11 countries: 533 theatres in 41 states and the District of Columbia, and 322 in Europe, including the United Kingdom, Spain, Italy, Germany and the Nordic countries. Besides new films, it shows independent and foreign films, performing arts, music and sports, and rents out theatres for private events. Most of its revenue comes from ticket sales and food and drinks. The rest comes from on-screen advertising, loyalty program fees, auditorium rentals, gift cards and online ticket fees. It reports two segments, U.S. markets and International markets, and 23.6% of its 2025 revenue came from outside the United States. Films from its seven largest studio distributors made up about 83% of its U.S. ticket revenue.
Biggest risks, in its own words
- Its heavy debt and tight cash, which could make it hard to pay what it owes or invest in its theatres.
- Its reliance on film studios, which it does not control, to supply the movies it shows.
- Shorter periods when films play only in theatres, and competition from streaming and other entertainment.
- Further dilution of its shares as it issues new stock to raise money or retire debt.
