Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain matters within this Quarterly Report on Form 10Q include “forward–looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The “forward-looking statements” may include our current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections about our business and our industry. They may include statements relating to:

•

future revenues, expenses and profitability;

•

currency exchange rate and inflationary impacts;

•

the future development and expected growth of our business;

•

projected capital expenditures;

•

access to capital resources;

•

attendance at movies generally or in any of the markets in which we operate;

•

the number or diversity of popular movies releases, the length of exclusive theatrical release windows and our ability to successfully license and exhibit popular films;

•

national and international growth in our industry;

•

competition from other exhibitors, alternative forms of entertainment and content delivery via streaming and other formats;

•

determinations in lawsuits in which we are a party; and

•

the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on us and the motion picture exhibition industry.

Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “plans,” “expects,” “future” and “intends” and similar expressions. These statements are neither historical facts nor guarantees of future performance. Instead, they are based only on our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions and are, therefore, subject to risks, inherent uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and difficult to predict, including, among others, the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Such risks and uncertainties could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. For a description of the risk factors, please review the “Risk Factors” section or other sections of, or incorporated by reference to, Cinemark Holdings, Inc.'s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed February 25, 2022. All forward-looking statements are expressly qualified in their entirety by such risk factors. We undertake no obligation, other than as required by law, to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to “we,” “our,” “us,” “the issuer,” “the Company” or “Cinemark” relate to Cinemark Holdings, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. All references to Latin America are to Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Guatemala, Bolivia, Curacao and Paraguay.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(in millions, except per share data, unaudited)

The Company and Basis of Presentation

The Company and its subsidiaries operate in the motion picture exhibition industry, with theatres in the United States (“U.S.”), Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Guatemala, Bolivia, Curacao and Paraguay.

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021, which was derived from audited financial statements, and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Majority-owned subsidiaries over which the Company has control are consolidated while those investments in entities of which the Company owns between 20% and 50% and does not control are accounted for under the equity method. Investments in entities of which the Company owns less than 20% are generally accounted for under the cost method, unless the Company is deemed to have the ability to exercise significant influence over the entities, in which case the Company would account for its investment under the equity method. The results of these subsidiaries and entities are included in the condensed consolidated financial statements effective with their formation or from their dates of acquisition. Intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited annual consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2021, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed February 25, 2022 by the Company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved for the full year.

Amounts included in the condensed consolidated financial statements of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are rounded in millions. The amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements, and the notes thereto, of the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed February 25, 2022 are rounded in thousands.

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic has had an unprecedented impact on the world and the movie exhibition industry with widespread social and economic effects. The Company temporarily closed its theatres in the U.S. and Latin America during March of 2020 at the onset of the COVID-19 outbreak. During that time, the Company implemented various cash preservation strategies, including, but not limited to, temporary personnel and salary reductions, halting non-essential operating and capital expenditures, negotiating modified timing and/or abatement of contractual payments with landlords and other major suppliers, and the suspension of its quarterly dividend.

Throughout 2020 and 2021 the Company reopened theatres as local restrictions and the status of the COVID-19 pandemic would allow. All of the Company's domestic and international theatres were reopened by the end of the fourth quarter of 2021. The industry’s recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic is still underway and is contingent upon the volume of new film content available, as well as the box office performance of new film content released, consumer sentiment in returning to movie theaters and government restrictions. The industry is also adjusting to the evolution of the exclusive theatrical window, competition from streaming platforms, supply chain constraints, inflationary impacts and other economic factors.

Restructuring Charges

During June 2020, Company management approved and announced a restructuring plan to realign its operations to create a more efficient cost structure (referred to herein as the “Restructuring Plan”) in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Restructuring Plan primarily included a headcount reduction at its domestic corporate office and the permanent closure of certain domestic and international theatres. The Company paid approximately $0.4 related to previously accrued restructuring costs during the six months ended June 30, 2022. The Company recorded a $0.2 reduction to previously accrued restructuring costs during the six months ended June 30, 2022 related to the settlement of facility closure costs for certain theatres. The remaining accrued restructuring costs of $0.8, which are primarily related to facility closure costs, are reflected in accounts payable and accrued expenses on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2022.

Lease Accounting

Lease Deferrals and Abatements

Upon the temporary closure of theatres in March 2020, the Company began negotiating the deferral of rent and other lease-related payments with its landlords while theatres remained closed. These negotiations resulted in amendments to the leases that involve varying concessions, including the abatement of rent payments during closure, deferral of all or a portion of rent payments to later periods and deferrals of rent payments combined with an early exercise of an existing renewal option or extension of the lease term. Total remaining deferred payments as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were $13.3 and $31.9, respectively, and are included in accounts payable and accrued expenses in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The following table represents the Company’s aggregate lease costs, by lease classification, for the periods presented.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had signed lease agreements with total noncancelable lease payments of approximately $69.8 related to theatre leases that had not yet commenced. The timing of lease commencement is dependent on the completion of construction of the related theatre facility. Additionally, these amounts are based on estimated square footage and costs to construct each facility and may be subject to adjustment upon final completion of each construction project. In accordance with ASC Topic 842, fixed minimum lease payments related to these theatres are not included in the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities as of June 30, 2022.

Revenue Recognition

The Company’s patrons have the option to purchase movie tickets well in advance of a movie showtime or right before the movie showtime, or at any point in between those two timeframes depending on seat availability. The Company recognizes such admissions revenue when the showtime for a purchased movie ticket has passed. Concession revenue is recognized when products are sold to the consumer. Other revenue primarily consists of screen advertising and screen rental revenue, promotional income, studio trailer placements and transactional fees. Except for National CineMedia, LLC. ("NCM") screen advertising advances discussed below in Note 8, these revenues are generally recognized when the Company has performed the related services. The Company sells gift cards and discount ticket vouchers, the proceeds from which are recorded as deferred revenue. Deferred revenue for gift cards and discount ticket vouchers is recognized when they are redeemed for concession items or, if redeemed for movie tickets, when the showtime has passed. The Company generally records breakage revenue on gift cards and discount ticket vouchers based on redemption activity and historical experience with unused balances. The Company offers a subscription program in the U.S. whereby patrons can pay a monthly or annual fee to receive a monthly credit for use towards a future movie ticket purchase. The Company records the subscription program fees as deferred revenue and records admissions revenue when the showtime for a movie ticket purchased with a credit has passed. The Company has loyalty programs in the U.S. and many of its international locations that either have a prepaid annual fee or award points to customers as purchases are made. For those loyalty programs that have a prepaid annual fee, the Company recognizes the fee collected as other revenue on a straight-line basis. For those loyalty programs that award points to customers based on their purchases, the Company records a portion of the original transaction proceeds as deferred revenue based on the number of reward points issued to customers and recognizes the deferred revenue when the customer redeems such points. The value of loyalty points issued is based on the estimated fair value of the rewards offered. The Company records breakage revenue on its loyalty and subscription programs generally upon the expiration of loyalty points or subscription credits. Advances collected on other contracts are deferred and recognized during the period in which the Company satisfies the related performance obligations, which may differ from the period in which the advances are collected.

Accounts receivable as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 included approximately $22.0 and $23.5, respectively, of receivables related to contracts with customers. The Company did not record any assets related to the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with customers during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

(1)

For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, a weighted average of approximately 2.27 shares and 2.28 shares of restricted stock, respectively, were considered participating securities. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, a weighted average of approximately 2.03 shares and 1.99 shares of restricted stock, respectively, were considered participating securities.

(2)

For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, approximately 0.25 and 0.16 common equivalent shares for restricted stock units, respectively, were excluded because they were anti-dilutive. For the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, approximately 0.28 and 0.10 common equivalent shares for restricted stock units, respectively, were excluded because they were anti-dilutive.

(3)

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, diluted earnings (loss) per share excludes the conversion of the 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes into 32.0 shares of common stock, as well as outstanding warrants, as they would be anti-dilutive. See further discussion below.

Share-based awards

The Company considers its unvested share-based payment awards, which contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends, participating securities, and includes such participating securities in its computation of loss per share pursuant to the two-class method. Basic loss per share for the two classes of stock (common stock and unvested restricted stock) is calculated by dividing net loss by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and unvested restricted stock outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted loss per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares of common stock plus the potentially dilutive effect of common equivalent shares outstanding determined under both the two-class method and the treasury stock method.

Convertible notes, hedges and warrants

The 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes, discussed further in Note 13 of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed February 26, 2021, may be considered dilutive in future periods in which the Company has net income. The impact of such dilution on earnings per share will be calculated under the if-converted method, which requires that all of the shares of the Company’s common stock issuable upon conversion of the 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes will be included in the calculation of diluted EPS assuming conversion at the beginning of the reporting period. The closing price of the Company's common stock did not exceed the strike price of $18.65 per share (130% of the initial exercise price of $14.35 per share) during at least 20 of the last 30 trading days of the six months ended June 30, 2022 and, therefore, the 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes are not convertible during the third quarter of 2022. The if-converted value of the 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes exceeded the aggregate outstanding principal value of the notes by $58.4 as of June 30, 2022.

The Company entered into hedge transactions with counterparties in connection with the issuance of the 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes. The convertible note hedge transactions cover, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to those applicable to 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes, the number of shares of the Company’s common stock underlying the 4.50% Convertible Notes, which initially gives the Company the option to purchase approximately 32.0 shares of the Company’s common stock at a price of approximately $14.35 per share. Concurrently with entering into the convertible note hedge transactions, the Company also entered into warrant transactions with each option counterparty whereby the Company sold to such option counterparty warrants to purchase, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments, up to the same number of shares of the Company’s common stock, which initially gives the option counterparties the option to purchase approximately 32.0 million shares at a price of approximately $22.08 per share. The

economic effect of these transactions is to effectively raise the strike price of the 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes from approximately $18.65 per share of the Company’s common stock to approximately $22.08 per share.

Senior Secured Credit Facility

Cinemark USA, Inc. has a senior secured credit facility that includes a $700.0 term loan and a $100.0 revolving credit line (the “Credit Agreement”). As of June 30, 2022, there was $629.8 outstanding under the term loan and no borrowings were outstanding under the revolving credit line. As of June 30, 2022, $100.0 was available for borrowing under the revolving credit line. Quarterly principal payments of $1.6 are due on the term loan through December 31, 2024, with a final principal payment of $613.4 due on March 29, 2025. The revolving credit line matures on November 28, 2024. The average interest rate applicable to outstanding term loan borrowings under the Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2022 was approximately 3.7% per annum, after giving effect to the interest rate swap agreements discussed below.

Interest Rate Swap Agreements

Below is a summary of the Company’s interest rate swap agreements, which are designated as cash flow hedges, as of June 30, 2022:


Notional						Estimated
Amount		Effective Date	Pay Rate	Receive Rate	Expiration Date	Fair Value (1)
$	137.5	December 31, 2018	2.12%	1-Month LIBOR	December 31, 2024	$	3.0

					Total	$	9.5

(1)

Approximately $4.3 of the total is included in prepaid expenses and other and $5.2 is included in deferred charges and other assets, net on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2022.

Effective March 31, 2020, the Company amended and extended its three then existing interest rate swap agreements, all of which are used to hedge a portion of the interest rate risk associated with the variable interest rates on the Company’s term loan debt and qualify for cash flow hedge accounting. Upon amending the interest rate swap agreements effective March 31, 2020, the Company determined that the interest payments hedged with the agreements are still probable to occur, therefore the loss that accumulated on the swaps prior to the amendments of $29.4 is being amortized to interest expense through December 31, 2022, the original maturity dates of the swaps. Approximately $1.1 was recorded in interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of loss for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 and $2.2 was recorded in interest expense in the condensed consolidated statements of loss for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021.

The fair values of the interest rate swaps are recorded on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets as an asset or liability with the related gains or losses reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. The changes in fair value are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss into earnings in the same period that the hedged items affect earnings. The valuation technique used to determine fair value is the income approach and, under this approach, the Company uses projected future interest rates as provided by counterparties to the interest rate swap agreements and the fixed rates that the Company is obligated to pay under the agreement. Therefore, the Company’s measurements use significant unobservable inputs, which fall in Level 2 of the U.S.

Investment in National CineMedia

NCM operates a digital in-theatre network in the U.S. for providing cinema advertising. The Company entered into an Exhibitor Services Agreement with NCM (“ESA”), pursuant to which NCM primarily provides advertising to our theatres. See Note 8 to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed February 25, 2022 for additional discussion of the Company's investment in NCM as well as the accounting for its original NCM membership units and subsequent common unit adjustments.

Common Unit Adjustments

The Company also periodically receives consideration in the form of common units from NCM. Annual adjustments to the common membership units are made primarily based on increases or decreases in the number of theatre screens operated and theatre attendance generated. The common units received are recorded at estimated fair value as an increase in the Company’s investment in NCM with an offset to NCM screen advertising advances.

During March 2022, NCM performed its annual common unit adjustment calculation under the Common Unit Adjustment Agreement. As a result of the calculation, the Company received an additional 0.5 common units of NCM during April 2022 and recorded the additional common units received at their estimated fair value of $1.3 with a corresponding adjustment to NCM screen advertising advances. The fair value of the common units received was estimated based on the market price of National Cinemedia,

(in millions, except per share data, unaudited)

Inc. ("NCMI") common stock (Level 1 input as defined in FASB ASC Topic 820) at the time the common units were determined, adjusted for volatility associated with the estimated time period it would take to convert the common units and register the respective shares.

Impairment of NCM Investment

As of June 30, 2022, the Company owned a total of 43.7 common units of NCM representing an ownership interest of approximately 25.5%. Each of the Company’s common units in NCM is convertible into one share of NCMI common stock. As of June 30, 2022, the estimated fair value of the Company’s investment in NCM was approximately $40.2 based on NCMI's stock price as of June 30, 2022 of $0.92 per share (Level 1 input as defined in FASB ASC Topic 820). Because the share price of NCMI was significantly below the Company’s carrying value of NCM per common unit and due to the prolonged recovery of NCM's business, the Company wrote down its investment in NCM to its estimated fair value, in accordance with ASC 323-10-35, recording an $86.8 charge to impairment expense during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Exhibitor Services Agreement

As discussed above, the Company’s domestic theatres are part of the in-theatre digital network operated by NCM, the terms of which are defined in the ESA. NCM provides advertising to its theatres through its branded “Noovie” pre-show entertainment program and also handles lobby promotions and displays for our theatres. The Company receives a monthly theatre access fee for participation in the NCM network and also earns screen advertising or screen rental revenue on a per patron basis. See Note 8 to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed February 25, 2022 for further discussion of the accounting for revenue earned under the ESA as well as the accounting related to NCM screen advertising advances.

The deferred NCM screen advertising advances are recorded on a straight-line basis over the term of the amended ESA through February 2041. The table below summarizes when the Company expects to recognize this revenue:


	Twelve Months Ended June 30,
Remaining Maturity	2023		2024		2025		2026		2027		Thereafter		Total
NCM screen advertising advances (1)	$	9.5	$	10.1	$	10.8	$	11.6	$	12.4	$	288.4	$	342.8

Significant Financing Component

As discussed in Note 8 to the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed February 25, 2022, the Company's ESA with NCM includes an implied significant financing component, as per the guidance in ASC Topic 606. As a result of the significant financing component, the Company recognized incremental screen rental revenue and interest expense of $16.2 and $11.7, respectively, during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and incremental screen rental revenue and interest expense of $15.9 and $11.8, respectively, during the six months ended June 30, 2021. The interest expense was calculated using the Company’s incremental borrowing rates at the time when the cash was received from the NCM, Inc. IPO and each tranche of common units was received from NCM, which ranged from 4.4% to 8.3%.

Other Investments

Digital Cinema Implementation Partners LLC (“DCIP”)

On February 12, 2007, the Company, AMC and Regal (the “Exhibitors”) entered into a joint venture known as DCIP to facilitate the implementation of digital cinema in the Company’s theatres and to establish agreements with major motion picture studios for the financing of digital cinema. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had a 33% voting interest in DCIP and a 24.3% economic interest in DCIP. DCIP also entered into long-term Digital Cinema Deployment Agreements (“DCDAs”) with six major motion picture studios pursuant to which Kasima LLC, one of DCIP’s subsidiaries, received a virtual print fee ("VPF") each time the studio booked a film or certain other content on the leased digital projection systems. Other content distributors entered into similar DCDAs that provided for the payment of VPFs for bookings of the distributor's content on a leased digital projection system. The DCDAs expired in October 2021. Pursuant to the operating agreement between the Exhibitors and DCIP, DCIP began to distribute excess cash generated from their operations to the Exhibitors during 2019. As the DCDAs have expired and the MELA between the Company and Kasima has been terminated, as discussed below, DCIP and its subsidiaries no longer have regular operations, and final distributions are expected to be made to the Company in the third quarter of 2022.

Effective November 1, 2020, the Company amended the master equipment lease agreement (“MELA”) with Kasima LLC, which is an indirect subsidiary of DCIP, resulting in the termination of the MELA. Upon termination of the MELA, the Company received a distribution of the digital projection equipment that it previously leased. As the fair value of the distributed projectors was greater than the Company’s investment in DCIP at the time of the distribution, the investment in DCIP was reduced to zero at the time of the distribution. The Company does not recognize undistributed equity in the earnings or loss of its investment in DCIP until such time that future net earnings, less distributions received, surpass the amount of the excess distribution. The investment in DCIP on the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2021 and June 30, 2022 was $0.

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company granted 0.87 shares of its restricted stock to certain employees and its directors. The fair value of the restricted stock granted was determined based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant dates, which ranged from $14.87 to $17.07 per share. The Company assumed forfeiture rates for the restricted stock awards that ranged from 0% to 12%. The restricted stock granted during the six months ended June 30, 2022 vests over periods ranging from one to four years. The recipients of restricted stock are entitled to receive non-forfeitable dividends and to vote their respective shares, however, the sale and transfer of the restricted shares is prohibited during the restriction period.

As of June 30, 2022, the estimated remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested restricted stock awards was $27.8 and the weighted average period over which this remaining compensation expense will be recognized is approximately two years.

Restricted Stock Units

Below is a summary of restricted stock unit activity for the periods presented:


	Six Months Ended June 30,

Income tax benefit (cost) related to restricted stock units	$	0.1	$	(0.3	)

During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company granted performance awards in the form of restricted stock units. The maximum number of shares issuable under the performance awards is 0.76 shares of common stock. The performance metrics for these awards are based upon the achievement of pre-established criteria that consists of revenue and consolidated cash flows as defined in the award agreement. The performance measurement period for these performance awards is one year with an additional service requirement to the third anniversary of the date of grant. Each performance target underlying the performance award has a threshold, target and maximum level, with the maximum level equal to 175% of the target award. If the performance metrics meet the threshold level, approximately 29% of the maximum restricted stock units vest. If the performance metrics for the one-year period are at target, approximately 57% of the maximum restricted stock units vest. If the performance metrics are at the maximum, 100% of the maximum restricted stock units vest. Grantees are eligible to receive a ratable portion of the common stock issuable if the achievement of the performance goals is within the targets previously noted. All restricted stock units granted during 2022 will be paid in the form of common stock if the participant continues to provide services through the third anniversary of the grant date. Restricted stock unit award participants are eligible to receive dividend equivalent payments from the grant date to the extent declared by the Company if, and at the time that, the restricted stock unit awards vest.

When the performance awards were issued, the Company estimated that the most likely outcome is the achievement of the target level. The fair value of the restricted stock unit awards was determined based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, which was $16.65 per share. The Company assumed a forfeiture rate of 5% for the restricted stock unit awards. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, based on updated performance expectations, the Company determined that the maximum performance level was more likely to be achieved. The Company recorded incremental compensation expense of approximately $0.6 related to the change in estimated performance level.

As of June 30, 2022, the estimated remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to outstanding restricted stock units was $13.6. The weighted average period over which this remaining compensation expense will be recognized is approximately two years. As of June 30, 2022, the Company had restricted stock units outstanding that represented a total of 1.0 hypothetical shares of common stock, net of forfeitures, reflecting actual certified performance levels for restricted stock units granted during 2019 and 2020 and the maximum performance level for the 2022 grant as discussed above.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company performed a qualitative impairment analysis on its goodwill and tradename intangible assets as of June 30, 2022. As a result of the qualitative assessment, the Company noted no impairment indicators related to its goodwill and tradename intangible assets as of June 30, 2022.

The Company's qualitative impairment analysis, by asset class, is described below:

•

Goodwill – The Company’s qualitative assessment of goodwill for each reporting unit considers economic and market conditions, industry trading multiples and the impact of recent developments and events on the Company's estimated fair values as compared with its most recent quantitative assessment.

•

Tradename Intangible Assets – The Company’s qualitative assessment considers recent developments that may impact the Company's revenue forecasts and other estimates as compared with its most recent quantitative assessment.

•

Other Long-lived Assets – The Company’s qualitative assessment considers relevant market transactions, industry trading multiples and recent developments that would impact the Company's estimates of future cash flows, which are the primary measure of estimated fair value, as compared with its most recent quantitative impairment assessment.

The Company performed a qualitative impairment analysis on its other long-lived assets, including theatre properties and right-of-use assets, as of June 30, 2022 to determine whether indicators of potential impairment existed at the theatre level, which is the level at which the Company tests its other long-lived assets. The Company then performed a quantitative impairment analysis for those theatres for which indicators of potential impairment were identified.

The Company’s quantitative evaluation at the theatre level uses estimated undiscounted cash flows from continuing use through the remainder of the theatre’s useful life. The remainder of the theatre’s useful life correlates with the remaining lease period, which includes the probability of the exercise of available renewal periods for leased properties, and the lesser of twenty years or the building’s remaining useful life for owned properties. If the estimated undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to recover a long-lived asset’s carrying value, the Company then compares the carrying value of the asset group (theatre) with its estimated fair value. Significant judgment is involved in estimating fair value, including management’s estimate of future theatre level cash flows for each of the Company's theatres based on projected box office. Fair value is estimated based on a multiple of cash flows. Management’s estimates, which fall under Level 3 of the U.S. GAAP fair value hierarchy, as defined by FASB ASC Topic 820-10-35, are based on projected operating performance, market transactions and industry trading multiples.

The Company's impairment charges were as follows for the six months ended June 30, 2022:

Fair Value Measurements

The Company determines fair value measurements in accordance with ASC Topic 820, which establishes a fair value hierarchy under which an asset or liability is categorized based on the lowest level of input significant to its fair value measurement. The levels of input defined by ASC Topic 820 are as follows:

Level 1 – quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date;

Level 2 – other than quoted market prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3 – unobservable and should be used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available.

Below is a summary of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis by the Company under FASB ASC Topic 820 as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021:


		Carrying		Fair Value Hierarchy
Description	As of,	Value		Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Interest rate swap assets (1)	June 30, 2022	$	9.5	$	—	$	9.5	$	—

Interest rate swap liabilities (1)	December 31, 2021	$	14.6	$	—	$	14.6	$	—

(1)

See further discussion of interest rate swaps at Note 7.

The Company uses the market approach for fair value measurements on a nonrecurring basis in the impairment evaluations of its goodwill, intangible assets and long-lived assets (see Note 11 and Note 12). See additional explanation of fair value measurement techniques used for long-lived assets, goodwill and intangible assets in “Critical Accounting Policies” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, filed February 25, 2022. There were no changes in valuation techniques. There were no transfers into or out of Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 during the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Foreign Currency Translation

The accumulated other comprehensive loss account in stockholders’ equity of $371.0 and $394.5 as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively, primarily includes cumulative foreign currency net losses of $395.8 and $394.5, respectively, from translating the financial statements of the Company’s international subsidiaries and the cumulative changes in fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap agreements that are designated as hedges.

As of June 30, 2022, all foreign countries where the Company has operations are non-highly inflationary, other than Argentina. In non-highly inflationary countries, the local currency is the same as the functional currency and any fluctuation in the currency results in a cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment recorded to accumulated other comprehensive loss. The Company deemed Argentina to be highly inflationary beginning July 1, 2018. A highly inflationary economy is defined as an economy with a cumulative inflation rate of 100 percent or more over a three-year period. If a country’s economy is classified as highly inflationary, the financial statements of the foreign entity operating in that country must be remeasured to the functional currency of the reporting entity. The financial information of the Company’s Argentina subsidiaries was remeasured in U.S. dollars in accordance with ASC Topic 830, Foreign Currency Matters, effective July 1, 2018.

Below is a summary of the impact of translating the June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021 financial statements of the Company’s international subsidiaries:


					Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) for
	Exchange Rate as of				Six Months Ended

As noted above, beginning July 1, 2018, Argentina was deemed highly inflationary. A foreign currency exchange loss of $2.0 and gain of $0.4 was recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, as a result of translating Argentina's financial results to U.S. dollars.

Segments

The Company manages its international market and its U.S. market as separate reportable operating segments, with the international segment consisting of operations in Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Guatemala, Bolivia, Curacao and Paraguay. Each segment’s revenue is derived from admissions and concession sales and other ancillary revenue. The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA, as shown in the reconciliation table below, as the primary measure of segment profit and loss to evaluate performance and allocate its resources. The Company does not report total assets by segment because that information is not used to evaluate the performance of or allocate resources between segments.

Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings arising from the ordinary course of its business operations, such as personal injury claims, employment matters, patent claims, landlord-tenant disputes, contractual disputes with landlords over certain termination rights or the right to discontinue rent payments due to the COVID-19 pandemic and other contractual disputes, some of which are covered by insurance. The Company believes its potential liability with respect to proceedings currently pending is not material, individually or in the aggregate, to the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

Cinemark Holdings, Inc., et al vs Factory Mutual Insurance Company. The Company filed suit on November 18, 2020, in the District Court, 471st Judicial District, Collin County, Texas. On December 22, 2020, the case was moved to the US District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, Sherman Division. The Company submitted a claim under its property insurance policy issued by Factory Mutual Insurance Company (the “FM Policy”) for losses sustained as a result of the closure of the Company’s theatres due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Factory Mutual Insurance Company (“FM”) denied the Company’s claim. The Company is seeking damages resulting from FM’s breach of contract, FM’s bad faith conduct and a declaration of the parties’ rights under the FM Policy. The Company cannot predict the outcome of this litigation.

Lakeenya Neal, et al v. Cinemark Holdings, Inc., et al. This class action lawsuit was filed against the Company on December 10, 2021, in the Central District of Los Angeles County Superior Court of the State of California alleging certain violations of the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act. We firmly maintain that the allegations are without merit and will vigorously defend this lawsuit. The Company cannot predict the outcome of this litigation.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes and schedules included elsewhere in this report. Amounts included in the following discussion, except for screens, average screens, average ticket price and concessions revenue per patron, are rounded in millions.

We are a leader in the motion picture exhibition industry, with theatres in the U.S., Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Guatemala, Bolivia, Curacao and Paraguay. As of June 30, 2022, we managed our business under two reportable operating segments – U.S. markets and international markets. See Note 16 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic has had an unprecedented impact on the world and the movie exhibition industry with widespread social and economic effects. We temporarily closed our theatres in the U.S. and Latin America during March of 2020 at the onset of the COVID-19 outbreak. During that time, we implemented various cash preservation strategies, including, but not limited to, temporary personnel and salary reductions, halting non-essential operating and capital expenditures, negotiating modified timing and/or abatement of contractual payments with landlords and other major suppliers, and the suspension of our quarterly dividend.

Throughout 2020 and 2021 we reopened theatres as local restrictions and the status of the COVID-19 pandemic would allow. All of our domestic and international theatres were reopened by the end of the fourth quarter of 2021. The industry’s recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic is still underway and is contingent upon the volume of new film content available, as well as the box office performance of new film content released, consumer sentiment in returning to movie theaters and government restrictions. The industry is also adjusting to the evolution of the exclusive theatrical window, competition from streaming platforms, supply chain constraints, inflationary impacts and other economic factors.

Revenue and Expense

We generate revenue primarily from filmed entertainment box office receipts and concession sales with additional revenue from screen advertising, screen rental and other revenue streams, such as transactional fees, vendor marketing promotions, studio trailer placements, meeting rentals and electronic video games located in some of our theatres. We also offer alternative entertainment, such as the Metropolitan Opera, concert events, in-theatre gaming, live and pre-recorded sports programs and other special events in our theatres through Fathom Entertainment (operated by AC JV, LLC). NCM provides our domestic theatres with various forms of in-theatre advertising. Our Flix Media subsidiaries provide screen advertising and alternative content for our international circuit and to other international exhibitors.

Films leading the box office during the six months ended June 30, 2022 included the carryover of Spider-Man: No Way Home as well as new releases including Top Gun: Maverick, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, The Batman, Jurassic World: Dominion, Sonic the Hedgehog 2, Uncharted, The Lost City, Lightyear, The Bad Guys and Elvis. Films scheduled for release during the remainder of 2022 include Black Panther: Wakanda Forever, Minions: The Rise of Gru, Thor: Love and Thunder, Black Adam, Puss in Boots: The Last Wish, Shazam! Fury of the Gods, Nope, Bullet Train, Halloween Ends and the highly anticipated sequel, Avatar: The Way of Water, among other films. There are several key factors impacting the industry box office's recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, including the availability and quality of new films released, the duration of the exclusive theatrical windows and evolving consumer behavior with competition from streaming platforms and other forms of entertainment.

Film rental costs are variable in nature and fluctuate with our admissions revenue. Film rental costs as a percentage of revenue are generally higher for periods in which more blockbuster films are released. The Company received virtual print fees from studios for certain of its international locations, which are included as a contra-expense in film rental and advertising costs on the condensed consolidated statements of loss. However, these costs were fully recovered during 2021. Virtual print fees were not received during 2022 and will not be received in future periods. Advertising costs, which are expensed as incurred, are primarily related to reigniting theatrical moviegoing, increasing loyalty to Cinemark and building our audiences. These expenses vary depending on the timing and length of such campaigns.

Concession supplies expense is variable in nature and fluctuates with our concession revenue and product mix. Supply chain interruptions and inflationary pressures have impacted, and may continue to impact, product costs and product availability in the near term. We source products from a variety of partners around the world to minimize supply chain interruptions and price increases, wherever possible.

Although salaries and wages include a fixed cost component (i.e., the minimum staffing costs to operate a theatre facility during non-peak periods), salaries and wages tend to move in relation to revenue as theatre staffing is adjusted to respond to changes in attendance. Staffing levels may vary based on the amenities offered at a location, such as full-service restaurants, bars or expanded food and beverage options. In certain international locations, staffing levels are also subject to local regulations. Labor market conditions and inflationary pressures have driven increases in wages across our labor base and increases may continue in the future.

Facility lease expense is primarily a fixed cost at the theatre level as most of our facility leases require a fixed monthly minimum rent payment. Certain leases are subject to percentage rent only, while others are subject to percentage rent in addition to their fixed monthly rent if a target annual performance level is achieved. Facility lease expense as a percentage of revenue is also affected by the number of theatres under operating leases, the number of theatres under finance leases and the number of owned theatres.

Utilities and other costs include both fixed and variable costs and primarily consist of utilities, property taxes, janitorial costs, credit card fees, third party ticket sales commissions, repairs and maintenance expenses, security services and expenses for the maintenance and monitoring of projection and sound equipment.

General and administrative expense to support the overall management of the Company is primarily fixed in nature with certain variable expenses. Fixed expenses include salaries and wages and benefits costs for our corporate office personnel, facility expenses for our corporate and other offices, software maintenance costs and audit fees. Some variable expenses may include incentive compensation, consulting and legal fees, supplies and other costs that are not specifically associated with the operations of our theatres.

Three months ended June 30, 2022 (the “second quarter of 2022”) versus the three months ended June 30, 2021 (the “second quarter of 2021”).

The COVID-19 pandemic has had an ongoing impact on the movie exhibition industry. When comparing the results for the second quarter of 2022 with the second quarter of 2021, the following should be noted:

•

All of our domestic and international theatres were open during the second quarter of 2022 while certain of our domestic and international theatres were temporarily closed for portions of the second quarter of 2021.

•

The North American Industry box office exceeded $2.3 billion during the second quarter of 2022, which included blockbuster films such as Top Gun: Maverick, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Jurassic World: Dominion and Sonic the Hedgehog 2.

•

The North American Industry box office totaled approximately $0.8B during the second quarter of 2021 with a limited number of new releases, which included A Quiet Place Part II, F9 The Fast Saga, Cruella and The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It.

Average ticket price is calculated as admissions revenue divided by attendance. Concession revenue per patron is calculated as concession revenue divided by attendance.

(3)

Constant currency revenue amounts, which are non-GAAP measurements, were calculated using the average exchange rate for the corresponding month for 2021. We translate the results of our international operating segment from local currencies into U.S. dollars using currency rates in effect at different points in time in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Significant changes in foreign currency exchange rates from one period to the next can result in meaningful variations in reported results. We are providing constant currency amounts for our international operating segment to present a period-to-period comparison of business performance that excludes the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

•

U.S. Attendance increased 125.2% to 34.0 million patrons during the second quarter of 2022 compared with 15.1 million patrons during the second quarter of 2021 due to the improved state of the COVID-19 pandemic and a more consistent cadence of new film releases with broad consumer appeal. Average ticket price decreased to $9.11 during the second quarter of 2022 compared with $9.33 during the second quarter of 2021. The second quarter of 2021 benefited from the mix of fewer matinee and weekday showtimes, the impact of Private Watch Parties and recognition of previously deferred loyalty revenues. Concession revenue per patron increased 4.7% to $6.90 during the second quarter of 2022 compared with $6.59 during the second quarter of 2021 driven by strategic pricing initiatives and a wider array of food and beverage offerings. Other revenue for the second quarter of 2022 increased 92.8% to $56.5 million compared with $29.3 million during the second quarter of 2021 primarily due to attendance growth, which drove an increase in transaction fees, screen advertising and promotional revenue.

•

International. Attendance increased 350% to 18.0 million patrons during the second quarter of 2022 compared with 4.0 million patrons during the second quarter of 2021 due to the reopening of theatres and a more consistent cadence of new film releases with broad consumer appeal during the second quarter of 2022. Average ticket price was $4.01 for the second quarter of 2022 as reported, $4.23 in constant currency, compared with $3.21 for the second quarter of 2021. The increase in average ticket price in constant currency was primarily the result of strategic pricing actions and higher premium ticket mix. Concession revenue per patron was $2.86 as reported, $3.05 in constant currency, for the second quarter of 2022 compared with $2.60 in the second quarter of 2021. The increase in concession revenue per patron in constant currency was due to strategic pricing actions and higher purchase incidence. Other revenue for the second quarter of 2022 increased 885% to $19.7 million compared with $2.0 million during the second period of 2021 primarily due to the growth in attendance, which drove an increase in screen advertising, transaction fees and promotional revenue.

Cost of Operations. The table below, presented by reportable operating segment, summarizes our year-over-year theatre operating costs.

U.S. Film rentals and advertising costs for the second quarter of 2022 were 60% of admissions revenue compared with 50% for the second quarter of 2021. The rate for the second quarter of 2022 reflected the success of new film releases as discussed above, which skewed higher on sliding film rental scales. The rate for the second quarter of 2021 reflected limited new film releases and the impact of library content. Concession supplies expense for the second quarter of 2022 was 17.6% of concession revenue compared with 16.2% of concession revenue for the second quarter of 2021. The increase in the concession supplies rate was due to inflationary and supply chain pressures on certain concession categories.

Salaries and wages increased to $84.4 million for the second quarter of 2022 compared with $43.5 million for the second quarter of 2021 as a result of significantly higher attendance, expanded operating hours and wage rate increases with average hourly rates up approximately 12% compared with the second quarter of 2021, partially offset by efficiencies and streamlined operations. Facility lease expense, which is primarily fixed in nature, increased $3.3 million due to new theatres and an increase in percentage rent expense and common area maintenance costs. Utilities and other costs increased to $81.3 million for the second quarter of 2022, as many of these costs, such as janitorial costs, utilities costs, credit card fees and repairs and maintenance, are variable in nature and increased due to the expansion of operating hours and a significant increase in attendance.

•

International. Film rentals and advertising costs for the second quarter of 2022 were 51.1% of admissions revenue compared with 48.8% for the second quarter of 2021. The increase in the film rentals and advertising rate was a result of the increase in new film content, partially offset by lower marketing costs as a percentage of revenue. Concession supplies expense was 22.0% of concessions revenue compared with 26.0% of concession revenue for the second quarter of 2021. The decrease in concessions supplies rate was primarily driven by the disposal of perishable goods during the second quarter of 2021 due to temporary theatre closures.

Salaries and wages increased to $15.8 million as reported for the second quarter of 2022 due to the significantly higher attendance, expanded operating hours and inflationary impacts. Facility lease expense increased to $17.1 million as reported due to increased percentage rent driven by higher revenue and the return of minimum rent thresholds for certain leases that were temporarily adjusted while theatres were reopening during the second quarter of 2021. Utilities and other costs increased to $25.2 million as reported as many of these costs are variable in nature, such as credit card fees, security expense, janitorial costs and repairs and maintenance, and were impacted by the significant increase in attendance in the second quarter of 2022. These expenses, as reported, were also impacted by exchange rates in each of the countries in which we operate.

General and Administrative Expense. General and administrative expense increased to $48.2 million for the second quarter of 2022 compared with $37.3 million for the second quarter of 2021. The increase is primarily due to higher staffing levels, incentive-based compensation and consulting fees to support our strategic initiatives as well as higher legal fees.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased to $61.0 million for the second quarter of 2022 compared with $66.9 million for the second quarter of 2021 primarily due to the impairment of theatre assets during 2021.

Impairment of Long-Lived and Other Assets. We recorded asset impairment charges on assets held and used of $92.3 million for the second quarter of 2022. Long-lived asset impairment charges of approximately $5.5 million were recorded primarily due to the prolonged recovery of certain theatres as a result of the COVID pandemic on our operations. In addition, we recorded an impairment of $86.8 million for our investment in NCM as NCMI’s stock price was significantly below the Company’s carrying value of NCM per common unit and due to the prolonged recovery of NCM's business. See Note 12 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of impairment analyses performed and a summary of impairment recorded.

(Gain) Loss on Disposal of Assets and Other. A gain on disposal of assets and other of $(0.7) million was recorded during the second quarter of 2022 compared with a loss of $2.4 million during the second quarter of 2021. Activity for the second quarter of 2022 was primarily related to the write-off of liabilities related to certain lease agreements that were either amended or terminated and insurance proceeds on property damages. Activity for the second quarter of 2021 was primarily related to the termination of certain lease agreements, partially offset by gains on sales of excess land parcels.

Interest Expense. Interest expense, which includes amortization of debt issuance costs and amortization of accumulated losses for swap amendments, increased to $38.1 million during the second quarter of 2022 compared with $37.0 million for the second quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to the issuance of the 5.875% Senior Notes and 5.25% Senior Notes to refinance the 5.125% Senior Notes and 4.875% Senior Notes during 2021. See further discussion at Financing Activities below.

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt. We recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $3.9 million during the second quarter of 2021 related to the early retirement of our 4.875% Senior Notes, including the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs and legal and other fees paid.

Equity in Loss of Affiliates. Equity in loss of affiliates of $5.5 million was recorded during the second quarter of 2022 compared with $8.1 million during the second quarter of 2021. The decrease in equity in loss of affiliates is due to the continued overall recovery of our equity investees’ performance as the industry continues to recover. See Notes 8 and 9 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for information about our equity investments.

Income Taxes. An income tax expense of $4.7 million was recorded for the second quarter of 2022 compared with an income tax expense of $8.0 million for the second quarter of 2021. The effective tax rate was approximately (6.9)% for the second quarter of 2022 compared with (6.0)% for the second quarter of 2021. The effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2022 was impacted by valuation allowances related to certain deferred tax assets for which the ultimate realization is uncertain. For the second quarter of 2022, we utilized the annual effective tax rate (“AETR”) method to calculate our interim tax provision. However, in the prior quarter, we recorded the interim tax provision using the discrete method as allowed by ASC Topic 740-270-30-18, Income Taxes Interim Reporting. We used the discrete method rather than the AETR method due to significant variations in income tax expense relative to changes (increases or decreases) in estimated pretax earnings. Use of the AETR method would have resulted in an unreliable tax rate in the prior period. Income tax provisions for interim (quarterly) periods are generally based on estimated annual income tax rates and are adjusted for the effects of significant, infrequent or unusual items (i.e. discrete items) occurring during the interim period. As a result, the interim rate may vary significantly from the normalized annual rate.

Six months ended June 30, 2022 (the “2022 period”) versus the six months ended June 30, 2021 (the “2021 period”)

The COVID-19 pandemic has had an ongoing impact on the movie exhibition industry. When comparing the results for the 2022 period with the 2021 period, the following should be noted:

•

All of our domestic and international theatres were open during the 2022 period while certain of our domestic and international theatres were temporarily closed for portions of the 2021 period.

•

The North American Industry box office exceeded $3.7 billion during the 2022 period, which included blockbuster films such as Top Gun: Maverick, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, The Batman, Jurassic World: Dominion and Sonic the Hedgehog 2.

•

The North American Industry box office totaled approximately $1B during the 2021 period with library content and a limited number of new releases, which included A Quiet Place Part II, Godzilla vs. Kong, F9 The Fast Saga, Cruella and The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It.

•

U.S. Attendance increased 169.5% to 54.7 million patrons during the 2022 period compared with 20.3 million patrons during the 2021 period due to the improved state of the COVID-19 pandemic and a more consistent cadence of new film releases with broad consumer appeal. Average ticket price decreased to $9.17 during the 2022 period compared with $9.31 during the 2021 period. The 2021 period benefited from the mix of fewer matinee and weekday showtimes, the impact of Private Watch Parties and recognition of previously deferred loyalty revenues. Concession revenue per patron increased 5.4% to $6.87 during the 2022 period compared with $6.52 during the 2021 period driven by higher incidence, mix of films, a wider array of food and beverage offerings and operating hours that are more conducive to concession purchases. Other revenue for the 2022 period increased 112.9% to $95.6 million compared with $44.9 million during the 2021 period primarily due to attendance growth, which drove an increase in transaction fees, screen advertising and promotional revenue.

•

International. Attendance increased 368% to 30.4 million patrons during the 2022 period compared with 6.5 million patrons during the 2021 period due to the reopening of theatres and a more consistent cadence of new film releases with broad consumer appeal during the 2022 period. Average ticket price was $3.82 as reported, $4.03 in constant currency, compared with the 2021 period of $3.15. The increase in average ticket price in constant currency was primarily the result of strategic pricing actions and higher premium ticket mix. Concession revenue per patron was $2.74 as reported, $2.92 in constant currency, for the 2022 period compared with $2.59 for the 2021 period. The increase in concession revenue per patron in constant currency was due to strategic pricing actions and higher purchase incidence. Other revenue for the 2022 period increased 521.2% to $32.3 million compared with $5.2 million during the 2021 period primarily due to higher attendance, which drove an increase screen advertising, transaction fees and promotional revenue.

Cost of Operations. The table below, presented by reportable operating segment, summarizes our year-over-year theatre operating costs.


	U.S. Operating Segment				International Operating Segment						Consolidated
	2022		2021		2022		2021		Constant Currency (1) 2022		2022		2021

•

U.S. Film rentals and advertising costs for the 2022 period were 58.2% of admissions revenue compared with 47.4% for the 2021 period. The rate for the 2022 period reflected the success of new film releases as discussed above. The rate for the 2021 period reflected the release of limited new films which skewed lower on our negotiated film rental scales, and the impact of library content. Concession supplies expense for the 2022 period was 17.1% of concession revenue compared with 16.3% of concession revenue for the 2021 period. The increase in the concession supplies rate was due to inflationary and supply chain pressures on certain concession categories.

Salaries and wages increased to $151.5 million for the 2022 period compared with $68.4 million for the 2021 period as a result of significantly higher attendance, expanded operating hours and wage rate increases with average hourly rates up approximately 13% compared with the 2021 period, partially offset by efficiencies and streamlined operations. Facility lease expense increased to $125.7 million primarily due to new theatres and an increase in percentage rent expense and common area maintenance costs. Utilities and other costs increased to $149.4 million, as many of these costs, such as janitorial costs, utilities costs, credit card fees and repairs and maintenance, are variable in nature and were impacted by the expansion of operating hours and a significant increase in attendance.

•

International. Film rentals and advertising costs for the 2022 period were 50.2% of admissions revenue compared with 49.8% for the 2021 period. The increase in the film rentals and advertising rate was a result of the increase in new film content, partially offset by lower marketing costs as a percentage of revenue. Concession supplies expense was 22.1% of concessions revenue compared with 26.0% of concession revenue for the 2021 period. The decrease in concessions supplies rate was primarily driven by the disposal of perishable goods during the first half of 2021 due to temporary theatre closures.

Salaries and wages increased to $28.5 million as reported for the 2022 period due to the significantly higher attendance, expanded operating hours and inflationary impacts. Facility lease expense increased to $28.3 million as reported due to increased percentage rent driven by higher revenue and the return of minimum rent thresholds for certain leases that were temporarily adjusted while theatres were reopening during the 2021 period. Utilities and other costs increased to $44.0 million as reported, as many of these costs are variable in nature, such as credit card fees, security expense, janitorial costs and repairs and maintenance, and were impacted by the significant increase in attendance. These expenses, as reported, were also impacted by exchange rate fluctuations in each of the countries in which we operate.

General and Administrative Expense. General and administrative expense increased to $88.9 million for the 2022 period compared with $73.2 million for the 2021 period. The increase is primarily due to higher staffing levels, incentive-based compensation and consulting fees to support our strategic initiatives as well as higher legal fees.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense decreased to $122.7 million for the 2022 period compared with $135.1 million for the 2021 period primarily due to the impairment of theatre assets during 2021.

Impairment of Long-Lived and Other Assets. We recorded asset impairment charges on assets held and used of $92.3 million for the 2022 period. Long-lived asset impairment charges of approximately $5.5 million were recorded primarily due to the prolonged recovery of certain theatres as a result of the COVID pandemic on our operations. In addition, we recorded an impairment of $86.8 million for our investment in NCM as NCMI’s stock price was significantly below the Company’s carrying value of NCM per common unit and due to the prolonged recovery of NCM's business. See Note 12 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for a discussion of impairment analyses performed and a summary of impairment recorded.

(Gain) Loss on Disposal of Assets and Other. A gain on disposal of assets and other of $(7.6) million was recorded for the 2022 period compared with a loss of $6.8 million for the 2021 period. Activity for the 2022 period was primarily related to the sale of excess

land parcels. Activity for the 2021 period was primarily related to the write-off of certain digital projectors recently received from DCIP in a non-cash distribution that were replaced with laser projectors, partially offset by gains on the sale of excess land parcels.

Interest Expense. Interest expense, which includes amortization of debt issuance costs and amortization of accumulated losses for swap amendments, increased to $76.2 million during the second quarter of 2022 compared with $73.6 million for the second quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily due to the issuance of the 5.875% Senior Notes and 5.25% Senior Notes to refinance the 5.125% Senior Notes and 4.875% Senior Notes during 2021. See further discussion at Financing Activities below.

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt. We recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $6.5 million during the 2021 period related to the early retirement of our 5.125% Senior Notes and 4.875% Senior Notes, including the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs and legal and other fees paid.

Equity in Loss of Affiliates. Equity in loss of affiliates of $7.7 million was recorded during the second quarter of 2022 compared with $14.9 million during the second quarter of 2021. The decrease in equity in loss of affiliates is due to the continued overall recovery of our equity investees’ performance as the industry continues to recover. See Notes 8 and 9 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for information about our equity investments.

Income Taxes. An income tax expense of $2.9 million was recorded for the second quarter of 2022 compared with an income tax benefit of $(6.7) million for the 2021 period. The effective tax rate was approximately (2.0)% for the 2022 period compared with 1.9% for the 2021 period. The effective tax rate for the 2022 period was impacted by valuation allowances related to certain deferred tax assets for which the ultimate realization is uncertain. For the 2022 and 2021 periods, we utilized the annual effective tax rate method to calculate our interim tax provision. Income tax provisions for interim (quarterly) periods are based on estimated annual income tax rates and are adjusted for the effects of significant, infrequent or unusual items (i.e. discrete items) occurring during the interim period. As a result, the interim rate may vary significantly from the normalized annual rate.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Operating Activities

We primarily collect our revenue in cash, mainly through box office receipts and the sale of concessions. Our revenue is generally received in cash prior to the payment of related expenses; therefore, we have an operating “float” and historically have not required traditional working capital financing. We temporarily closed all of our theatres during March 2020 and funded operating expenses with cash on hand and new financing discussed below under Financing Activities while theatres were closed and as we reopened our theatres. During the latter part of 2021, as we began to show a steady stream of new film content and our theatres were returning to more consistent operating hours, we began to generate positive cash flows from operations and transition back to our historical working capital “float” position. However, our working capital position will continue to fluctuate based on seasonality, the timing and volume of new film content, the timing of interest payments on our long-term debt as well as timing of payment of other operating expenses that are paid annually or semi-annually, such as property and other taxes and incentive bonuses. We believe our existing cash and expected cash flows from operations will be sufficient to meet our working capital, capital expenditures, and expected cash requirements from known contractual obligations for the next twelve months and beyond.

Cash provided by operating activities was $46.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared with cash used for operating activities of $(21.4) million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in cash provided by (used for) operating activities was primarily a result of the timing and level of revenue earned during each period and the timing of payments to vendors for expenses incurred during each period.

As discussed in Note 4 to our condensed consolidated financial statements, we negotiated the deferral of rent and other lease-related payments in 2020 and early 2021 with some of our landlords. As of June 30, 2022, approximately $13.3 million in deferred lease payments remain outstanding, the majority of which will be repaid during the remainder of 2022.

Investing Activities

Our investing activities have been principally related to the development, remodel and acquisition of theatres. New theatre openings, remodels and acquisitions historically have been financed with internally generated cash and by debt financing, including borrowings under our senior secured credit facility. Cash used for investing activities was $28.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared with $30.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Capital expenditures, disaggregated by new and existing theatres, during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were as follows (in millions):


	Six Months Ended June 30,
	2022		2021
New theatres	$	15.8	$	10.5
Existing theatres		24.8		22.3
Total capital expenditures	$	40.6	$	32.8

We operated 521 theatres with 5,855 screens worldwide as of June 30, 2022. Theatres and screens acquired, built and closed during the six months ended June 30, 2022 were as follows:


	January 1, 2022		Built		Closed			June 30, 2022

International	4	21		9.0
Total	7	55	$	32.1

Total commitments at June 30, 2022	9	87	$	45.7

(1)

We expect approximately $13.6 million to be paid during the remainder of 2022 and $17.2 million, $11.9 million and $3.0 million to be paid during 2023, 2024 and 2025, respectively. The timing of payments is subject to change as a result of construction or other delays.

Actual expenditures for continued theatre development, remodels and acquisitions are subject to change based upon the availability of attractive opportunities. During the next twelve months and the foreseeable future, we plan to fund capital expenditures for our continued development with cash flow from operations and, if needed, borrowings under our senior secured credit facility, proceeds from debt issuances, sale leaseback transactions and/or sales of excess real estate.

Financing Activities

Cash used for financing activities was $19.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 compared with cash used for financing activities of $6.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, we issued 5.875% Senior Notes and 5.25% Senior Notes, the proceeds of which were used to redeem the 5.125% Senior Notes and the 4.875% Senior Notes as discussed further below.

We, at the discretion of the board of directors and subject to applicable law, may pay dividends on our common stock. The amount, if any, of the dividends to be paid in the future will depend upon our then available cash balance, anticipated cash needs, overall financial condition, loan agreement restrictions as discussed below, future prospects for earnings and cash flows, as well as other relevant factors. As a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have suspended our quarterly dividend.

We may, from time to time, seek to retire or repurchase our outstanding debt securities through cash purchases or exchanges for other securities, in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. Such repurchases or exchanges, if any, will depend on the availability and prices of such debt securities, prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

Long-term debt consisted of the following as of June 30, 2022 (in millions):


	June 30,		December 31,

As of June 30, 2022, $100 million was available for borrowing under the revolving line of credit.

Contractual Obligations

There have been no material changes in our contractual obligations previously disclosed in “Liquidity and Capital Resources” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 filed February 25, 2022.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Senior Secured Credit Facility

Cinemark USA, Inc. has a senior secured credit facility that includes a $700.0 million term loan and a $100.0 million revolving credit line (the “Credit Agreement”). Under the amended Credit Agreement, quarterly principal payments of $1.6 million are due on the term loan through December 31, 2024, with a final principal payment of $613.4 million due on March 29, 2025. Cinemark USA, Inc. had $100.0 million of available borrowing capacity on the revolving credit line as of June 30, 2022.

Interest on the term loan accrues at Cinemark USA, Inc.’s option at: (A) the base rate equal to the greater of (1) the US “Prime Rate” as quoted in The Wall Street Journal or, if no such rate is quoted therein, in a Federal Reserve Board statistical release, (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%, and (3) a one-month Eurodollar-based rate plus 1.0%, plus, in each case, a margin of 0.75% per annum, or (B) a Eurodollar-based rate for a period of 1, 2, 3, 6, 9 or 12 months plus a margin of 1.75% per annum. Interest on the revolving credit line accrues, at our option, at: (A) a base rate equal to the greater of (1) the US “Prime Rate” as quoted in The Wall Street Journal or if no such rate is quoted therein, in a Federal Reserve Board statistical release, (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%, and (3) a one-month Eurodollar-based rate plus 1.0%, plus, in each case, a margin that ranges from 0.50% to 1.25% per annum, or (B) a Eurodollar-based rate for a period of 1, 2, 3, 6, 9 or 12 months plus a margin that ranges from 1.50% to 2.25% per annum. The margin of the revolving credit line is determined by the consolidated net senior secured leverage ratio as defined in the Credit Agreement.

Cinemark USA, Inc.’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by Cinemark Holdings, Inc. and certain of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s domestic subsidiaries and are secured by mortgages on certain fee and leasehold properties and security interests in substantially all of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s and the guarantors’ personal property, including, without limitation, pledges of all of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s capital stock, all of the capital stock of certain of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the voting stock of certain of its foreign subsidiaries.

The Credit Agreement contains usual and customary negative covenants for agreements of this type, including, but not limited to, restrictions on Cinemark USA, Inc.’s ability, and in certain instances, its subsidiaries’ and our ability, to consolidate or merge or liquidate, wind up or dissolve; substantially change the nature of its business; sell, transfer or dispose of assets; create or incur indebtedness; create liens; pay dividends or repurchase stock; and make capital expenditures and investments. If Cinemark USA, Inc. has borrowings outstanding on the revolving credit line, it is required to satisfy a consolidated net senior secured leverage ratio covenant as defined in the Credit Agreement, not to exceed 4.25 to 1. See below for discussion of recent covenant waivers.

The dividend restriction contained in the Credit Agreement prevents the Company and any of its subsidiaries from paying a dividend or otherwise distributing cash to its stockholders unless (1) the Company is not in default, and the distribution would not cause Cinemark USA, Inc. to be in default, under the Credit Agreement; and (2) the aggregate amount of certain dividends, distributions, investments, redemptions and capital expenditures made since December 18, 2012, including dividends declared by the board of directors, is less than the sum of (a) the aggregate amount of cash and cash equivalents received by Cinemark Holdings, Inc. or Cinemark USA, Inc. as common equity since December 18, 2012, (b) Cinemark USA, Inc.’s consolidated EBITDA minus 1.75 times its consolidated interest expense, each as defined in the Credit Agreement, and (c) certain other defined amounts, or collectively, the Applicable Amount. As of June 30, 2022, Cinemark USA, Inc. could have distributed up to approximately $2.8 billion to its parent company and sole stockholder, Cinemark Holdings, Inc.

On April 17, 2020, in conjunction with the issuance of the 8.750% Secured Notes discussed below, we obtained a waiver of the leverage covenant from the majority of revolving lenders under the Credit Agreement for the fiscal quarters ending September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2020. The waiver was subject to certain liquidity thresholds, restrictions on investments and the use of the Applicable Amount.

On August 21, 2020, in conjunction with the issuance of the 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes discussed below, we further amended the waiver of the leverage covenant through the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2021. The amendment also i) modifies the leverage covenant calculation beginning with the calculation for the trailing twelve-month period ended December 31, 2021, ii) for purposes of testing the consolidated net senior secured leverage ratio for the fiscal quarters ending on December 31, 2021, March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2022, permits us to substitute Consolidated EBITDA for the first three fiscal quarters of 2019 in lieu of Consolidated EBITDA for the corresponding fiscal quarters of 2021, (iii) modifies the restrictions imposed by the covenant waiver and (iv) makes such other changes to permit the issuance of the 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes discussed below. The required maximum ratio is 4.25 to 1 and our actual ratio as of June 30, 2022, using the substitute Consolidated EBITDA as described above, was 1.67.

On June 15, 2021, in conjunction with the issuance of the 5.25% Senior Notes discussed below, the Credit Agreement was amended to, among other things, extend the maturity of the revolving credit line from November 28, 2022 to November 28, 2024.

We have three interest rate swap agreements that are used to hedge a portion of the interest rate risk associated with the variable interest rates on the term loan outstanding under the Credit Agreement. See Note 7 of our condensed consolidated financial statements for discussion of the interest rate swaps.

As of June 30, 2022, there was $629.8 million outstanding under the term loan and no borrowings were outstanding under the $100.0 million revolving line of credit. The average interest rate on outstanding term loan borrowings under the Credit Agreement as of June 30, 2022 was approximately 3.7% per annum, after giving effect to the interest rate swap agreements discussed above.

5.875% Senior Notes

On March 16, 2021, Cinemark USA, Inc. issued $405 million aggregate principal amount of 5.875% senior notes due 2026, at par value (the “5.875% Senior Notes”). Proceeds, after payment of fees, were used to fund a cash tender offer to purchase any and all of Cinemark USA’s 5.125% Senior Notes (the “5.125% Senior Notes”) and to redeem any of the 5.125% Notes that remained outstanding after the tender offer. See further discussion of the tender offer below. Interest on the 5.875% Senior Notes is payable on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning September 15, 2021. The 5.875% Senior Notes mature on March 15, 2026. The Company incurred debt issuance costs of approximately $6.0 million in connection with the issuance, which are recorded as a reduction of long-term debt, less current on the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

The 5.875% Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several senior unsecured basis by certain of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s subsidiaries that guarantee, assume or become liable with respect to any of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s or a guarantor’s debt. The 5.875% Senior Notes and the guarantees are senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s and its guarantor’s existing and future senior debt and senior in right of payment to all of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s and its guarantors’ existing and future senior subordinated debt. The 5.875% Senior Notes and the guarantees are effectively subordinated to all of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s and its guarantor’s existing and future secured debt to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such debt, including all borrowings under Cinemark USA, Inc.’s amended senior secured credit facility. The 5.875% Senior Notes and the guarantees are structurally subordinated to all existing and future debt and other liabilities of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s subsidiaries that do not guarantee the 5.875% Senior Notes.

Prior to March 15, 2023, Cinemark USA, Inc. may redeem all or any part of the 5.875% Senior Notes at its option at 100% of the principal amount plus a make-whole premium plus accrued and unpaid interest on the 5.875% Senior Notes to the date of redemption. After March 15, 2023, Cinemark USA, Inc. may redeem the 5.875% Senior Notes in whole or in part at redemption prices specified in the indenture. In addition, prior to March 15, 2023, Cinemark USA, Inc. may redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the 5.875% Senior Notes from the net proceeds of certain equity offerings at the redemption price set forth in the indenture.

5.25% Senior Notes

On June 15, 2021, Cinemark USA, Inc. issued $765 million aggregate principal amount of 5.25% senior notes due 2028, at par value (the “5.25% Senior Notes”). Proceeds, after payment of fees, were used to redeem all of Cinemark USA’s 4.875% $755 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes due 2023 (the “4.875% Senior Notes”). Interest on the 5.25% Senior Notes is payable on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning January 15, 2022. The 5.25% Senior Notes mature on July 15, 2028.

The 5.25% Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several senior unsecured basis by certain of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s subsidiaries that guarantee, assume or become liable with respect to any of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s or a guarantor’s debt. The 5.25% Senior Notes and the guarantees will be Cinemark USA’s and the guarantors’ senior unsecured obligations and (i) rank equally in right of payment to Cinemark USA’s and the guarantors’ existing and future senior debt, including borrowings under Cinemark USA’s Credit Agreement (as defined below) and Cinemark USA’s existing senior notes, (ii) rank senior in right of payment to Cinemark USA’s and the guarantors’ future subordinated debt, (iii) are effectively subordinated to all of Cinemark USA’s and the guarantors’ existing and future secured debt, including all obligations under the Credit Agreement and Cinemark USA’s 8.750% senior secured notes due 2025, in each case to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such debt, (iv) are structurally subordinated to all existing and future debt and other liabilities of Cinemark USA’s non-guarantor subsidiaries, and (v) are structurally senior to the 4.50% convertible senior notes due 2025 issued by Cinemark Holdings.

8.750% Secured Notes

On April 20, 2020, Cinemark USA, Inc. issued $250 million 8.750% senior secured notes (the “8.750% Secured Notes”). The 8.750% Secured Notes will mature on May 1, 2025.

If the Company cannot make payments on the 8.750% Secured Notes when they are due, the Company’s guarantors must make them instead. Under certain circumstances, the guarantees may be released without action by, or the consent of, the holders of the 8.750% Secured Notes.

4.50% Convertible Senior Notes

On August 21, 2020, Cinemark Holdings, Inc. issued $460 million 4.50% convertible senior notes (the “4.50% Convertible Senior Notes”). The notes will mature on August 15, 2025, unless earlier repurchased or converted. Interest on the notes will be payable on February 15 and August 15 of each year, beginning on February 15, 2021.

Holders of the 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes may convert their 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes at their option at any time prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding May 15, 2025 only under the following circumstances: (1) during the five business day period after any five consecutive trading day period, or the measurement period, in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of notes for each trading day of the measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of our common stock and the conversion rate on each such trading day; (2) if we distribute to all or substantially all stockholders (i) rights options or warrants entitling them to purchase shares at a discount to the recent average trading price of our common stock (including due to a stockholder rights plan) or (ii) our assets or securities or rights, options or warrants to purchase the same with a per share value exceeding 10% of the trading price of our common stock, (3) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events as described further in the indenture. Beginning May 15, 2025, holders may convert their notes at any time prior to the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, or (4) during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ending on September 30, 2020 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days during the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to $18.65 per share (130% of the initial conversion price of $14.35 per share), on each applicable trading day. Upon conversion of the notes, we will pay or deliver cash, shares of our common stock or a combination of cash and shares of our common stock, at our election.

The initial conversion rate is 69.6767 shares of our common stock per one thousand dollars principal amount of the 4.50% Convertible Senior Notes. The conversion rate will be subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events. If a make-whole fundamental change as defined in the indenture occurs prior to the maturity date, we will, in certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for a holder who elects to convert its notes in connection with such make-whole fundamental change.

The 4.50% Convertible Notes are effectively subordinated to any of our, or our subsidiaries’, existing and future secured debt to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness, including obligations under the Credit Agreement. The 4.50% Convertible Notes are structurally subordinated to all existing and future debt and other liabilities, including trade payables, including Cinemark USA’s 8.750% Secured Notes due 2025, 5.25% Senior Notes due 2028 and 5.875% Senior Notes due 2026, or, collectively, Cinemark USA’s senior notes (but excluding all obligations under the Credit Agreement which are guaranteed by Cinemark Holdings, inc.). The 4.50% Convertible Notes rank equally in right of payment with all of our existing and future unsubordinated debt, including all obligations under the Cinemark USA, Inc. Credit Agreement, which such Credit Agreement is guaranteed by Cinemark Holdings, Inc., and senior in right of payment to any future debt that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the notes. The 4.50% Convertible Notes are not guaranteed by any of Cinemark Holdings, Inc.’s subsidiaries.

Borrowings of International Subsidiaries

As of June 30, 2022, certain of the Company’s international subsidiaries have an aggregate borrowing of $28.2 million outstanding under various local bank loans. The Company has deposited cash into a collateral account to support the issuance of letters of credit to the lenders for certain of these international bank loans. The total amount deposited as of June 30, 2022 was $25.8 million and is considered restricted cash.

During the year ended December 31, 2021, we obtained a waiver of the maintenance covenant related to the bank loans in Chile through June 30, 2022.

Covenant Compliance

See discussion above at Senior Secured Credit Facility for discussion of dividend restriction, negative covenants and leverage ratio covenant under the Credit Agreement.

The indentures governing the 5.875% Senior Notes, the 5.25% Senior Notes and the 8.750% Secured Notes ("the indentures") contain covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of Cinemark USA, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries to (1) make investments or other restricted payments, including paying dividends, making other distributions or repurchasing subordinated debt or equity, (2) incur additional indebtedness and issue preferred stock, (3) enter into transactions with affiliates, (4) enter new lines of business, (5) merge or consolidate with, or sell all or substantially all of its assets to, another person and (6) create liens. As of June 30, 2022, Cinemark USA, Inc. could have distributed up to approximately $3.1 billion to its parent company and sole stockholder, Cinemark Holdings, Inc., under the terms of the indentures, subject to its available cash and other borrowing restrictions outlined in the indentures. Upon a change of control, as defined in the indentures, Cinemark USA, Inc. would be required to make an offer to repurchase the 5.875% Senior Notes, the 5.25% Senior Notes and the 8.750% Secured Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, through the date of repurchase. The indentures allow Cinemark USA, Inc. to incur additional indebtedness if we satisfy the coverage ratio specified in the indenture, after giving effect to the incurrence of the additional indebtedness, and in certain other circumstances. The required minimum coverage ratio is 2 to 1 and our actual ratio as of June 30, 2022 was 2.62.

As of June 30, 2022, we believe we were in full compliance with all agreements, including all related covenants, governing our outstanding debt.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We have exposure to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and other relevant market prices.

Interest Rate Risk

We currently have variable rate debt. An increase or decrease in interest rates would affect our interest expense related to this variable rate debt. We have three interest rate swap agreements that are used to hedge a portion of the interest rate risk associated with our term loan, covering $450.0 million of the $629.8 million outstanding at June 30, 2022. At June 30, 2022, we had an aggregate of $208.0 million of variable rate debt outstanding, and a 100 basis point increase in market interest rates would increase our annual interest expense by $2.0 million.

The table below provides information about our fixed rate and variable rate long-term debt agreements as of June 30, 2022:


	Expected Maturity for the Twelve Months Ending June 30,																Average
