Insights

Corporate Finance Analyst

Registration creates potential overhang of 15,378,194 shares tied to Consent Fees.

The prospectus supplement registers 15,378,194 shares issued to selling stockholders as payment of Consent Fees and explicitly states the company will receive no proceeds from subsequent sales. The registered shares may be sold via various methods including ATM offerings and block trades.

Key dependencies include selling stockholder decisions and market liquidity; the filing notes March 23, 2026 outstanding shares of 582,797,250, and an ATM program with remaining authorized capacity referenced in the supplement. Subsequent sales could increase float and influence supply-side pressure.

Securities/Capital Markets Lawyer

The filing is a resale registration under Rule 424(b)(7); issuer disclaims proceeds and underwriter obligations.

The supplement confirms this is a resale registration of shares held by identified selling stockholders and their permitted successors, and that the company will not receive proceeds. It lists permitted distribution methods and reserves related to the New Exchangeable Notes and Consent Fees.

Material qualifiers preserved in the text include the range of distribution methods (including Rule 415 ATM sales and Rule 10b5-1 plans) and that additional prospectus supplements may supplement or change information. Cash-flow treatment to the issuer is expressly stated: no issuer proceeds.

PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
(To Prospectus dated February 9, 2026)

AMC Entertainment Holdings, Inc.

Resale of shares of Common Stock

This prospectus supplement relates to the sale of up to 15,378,194 shares of AMC Entertainment Holdings, Inc.’s (the “Company”) Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “common stock”) by the selling stockholders identified in the section entitled “Selling Stockholders” ​(each, including their pledgees, donees, transferees or other successors in interest, a “selling stockholder” and collectively, the “selling stockholders”). The common stock described in this prospectus supplement may be sold from time to time pursuant to this prospectus supplement by the selling stockholders in a number of different ways and at varying prices and in different transactions. See “Selling Stockholders” and “Plan of Distribution.” We cannot predict when or in what amounts the selling stockholders may sell any of the common stock offered by this prospectus supplement. The registration of the common stock does not necessarily mean that any shares of such common stock will be offered or sold by the selling stockholders.

We are not selling any of the common stock, and we will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the common stock by the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders will pay all brokerage fees and commissions and similar sale-related expenses incurred in connection with the sale of the securities by such selling stockholders via this prospectus supplement. We are paying expenses relating to the registration of the common stock with the SEC and certain legal fees of the selling stockholders related to the sale of common stock by the selling stockholders.

Additional prospectus supplements may add, update or change information contained in this prospectus supplement. You should read this prospectus supplement together with the documents we incorporate by reference carefully before you invest. The selling stockholders may offer and sell the shares of common stock to or through one or more underwriters, dealers and agents, or directly to purchasers, on a continuous or delayed basis.

Our common stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) under the symbol “AMC.” The market prices and trading volume of our shares of common stock has been and may continue to be subject to extreme fluctuations in response to numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, which could cause purchasers of our common stock to incur substantial losses. During 2025 and 2026 to date, the market price of our common stock has fluctuated from an intra-day low on the NYSE of $0.98 per share on March 20, 2026, to an intra-day high on the NYSE of $4.13 on January 7, 2025, and the last reported sale price of our common stock on the NYSE on March 20, 2026 was $0.98 per share.

During 2025 and 2026 to date, according to the NYSE, daily trading volume for our common stock ranged from approximately 4,237,100 to 72,240,900 shares. The extreme fluctuations in the market price and trading volume of our common stock in recent years have been accompanied by reports of strong and atypical retail investor interest, including on social media and online forums. While the market prices of our common stock may respond to developments regarding our liquidity, operating performance and prospects, and developments regarding our industry, we believe that volatility and our current market prices also reflect market and trading dynamics unrelated to our underlying business, or macro or industry fundamentals, and we do not know how long these dynamics will last. Within the last seven business days, the market price of our common stock has fluctuated from an intra-day low on the NYSE of $0.98 on March 20, 2026, to an intra-day high of $1.13 on March 13, 2026. Under the circumstances, we caution you against investing in our common stock, unless you are prepared to incur the risk of losing all or a substantial portion of your investment. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to This Offering.”

Investing in our common stock is highly speculative and involves risks. You should carefully read and consider the risk factors included in this prospectus supplement, in our periodic reports, in the accompanying prospectus and in any other documents we file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). See the sections entitled “Risk Factors” below on page S-9, in our other filings with the SEC and in the accompanying prospectus.

Neither the SEC nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus supplement is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

​

The date of this prospectus supplement is March 23, 2026.

ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT

On February 9, 2026, we filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-3 utilizing a shelf registration process related to the securities described in this prospectus supplement, which was automatically declared effective upon filing.

This document is in two parts. The first part is this prospectus supplement, which provides you with a general description of our common stock that the selling stockholders may offer and sell and also adds to and updates information contained in the accompanying prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus. To the extent required by applicable law, each time a selling stockholder sells shares of common stock under this prospectus supplement, such selling stockholder will provide you with this prospectus supplement and, to the extent required, a prospectus supplement that will contain more information about the specific terms of the offering. We may also authorize one or more free writing prospectuses to be provided to you that may contain material information relating to these offerings. Each such prospectus supplement (and any related free writing prospectus that we may authorize to be provided to you), if any, may also add, update or change information contained in this prospectus supplement or in documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement. The second part, the accompanying prospectus, gives more general information, some of which may not apply to this offering. Generally, when we refer to this prospectus, we are referring to both parts of this document combined. In this prospectus supplement, as permitted by law, we “incorporate by reference” information from other documents that we file with the SEC. This means that we can disclose important information to you by referring you to those documents. The information incorporated by reference is considered to be a part of this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus and should be read with the same care. When we update the information contained in documents that have been incorporated by reference by making future filings with the SEC, the information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement is considered to be automatically updated and superseded. In other words, in case of a conflict or inconsistency between information contained in this prospectus supplement and information in the accompanying prospectus or incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement, you should rely on the information contained in the document that was filed later.

You should rely only on the information contained in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, including the information incorporated by reference herein as described under “Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation of Documents by Reference,” and any free writing prospectus that we prepare and distribute.

Neither we nor the selling stockholders or any of our or their affiliates have authorized anyone to provide you with information other than that contained in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus or any free writing prospectus related hereto that we may authorize to be delivered to you. If given or made, any such other information or representation should not be relied upon as having been authorized by us or the selling stockholders. The selling stockholders may only offer to sell and seek offers to buy any securities in jurisdictions where offers and sales are permitted.

This prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus and any other offering materials do not contain all of the information included in the registration statement as permitted by the rules and regulations of the SEC. For further information, we refer you to the registration statement on Form S-3, including its exhibits. We are subject to the informational requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and, therefore, file reports and other information with the SEC. Statements contained in this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus or other offering materials about the provisions or contents of any agreement or other document are only summaries. If SEC rules require that any agreement or document be filed as an exhibit to the registration statement, you should refer to that agreement or document for its complete contents.

You should assume that the information in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus or any other offering materials is only accurate as of the date on its respective cover, and that any information incorporated by reference is accurate only as of the date of the document incorporated by reference, unless otherwise indicated. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since such date.

Unless we state otherwise, references to “we,” “us,” “our,” the “Company” or “AMC” refer to AMC Entertainment Holdings, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements made in this prospectus supplement, the documents that are incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and other written or oral statements made by or on behalf of AMC may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “forecast,” “estimate,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “expect,” “should,” “believe” and other similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These forward-looking statements 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 speak only as of the date on which it is made. Examples of forward-looking statements include statements we make regarding future attendance levels, revenues and our liquidity. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors, including those discussed in “Risk Factors,” which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following:

•

the risks and uncertainties relating to the sufficiency of our existing cash and cash equivalents and available borrowing capacity to fund operations and satisfy obligations including cash outflows for planned capital expenditures currently and through the next twelve months. In order to achieve net positive cash flows from operating activities, revenues will need to increase from current levels to levels at least in line with pre-COVID-19 revenues. However, there remain significant risks that may negatively impact revenues and attendance levels, including changes to movie studios release schedules (including as a result of production delays and delays to the release of movies caused by labor stoppages) and direct to streaming or other changing movie studio practices. If we are unable to achieve increased levels of attendance and revenues, we will be required to obtain additional liquidity. If such additional liquidity is not obtained or is insufficient, we likely would seek an in-court or out-of-court restructuring of our liabilities, and in the event of such future liquidation or bankruptcy proceeding, holders of our common stock and other securities would likely suffer a total loss of their investment;

​

•

the risks and uncertainties relating to a series of refinancing transactions completed in July 2024 and July 2025 to raise additional financing and to refinance and extend to 2029 and 2030 the maturities of the Company’s debt previously maturing in 2026 (the “Refinancing Transactions”) including, but not limited to, (i) the potential for additional future dilution of our common stock as a result of issuance of shares underlying our Existing Exchangeable Notes or our New Exchangeable Notes (each as defined below), (ii) the possibility that the extension of certain debt maturities will not provide enough time for attendance and revenues to increase to sufficient levels and generate net positive cash flows from operating activities to overcome liquidity concerns or may be insufficient to do so if the Company does not achieve revenue levels at least in line with pre-COVID-19 revenues and (iii) the impact on the market price of our common stock and our capital structure of any litigation or claims of default that might arise in connection with the Refinancing Transactions;

​

•

changing practices of distributors, which accelerated during the COVID-19 pandemic, including increased use of alternative film delivery methods including premium video on demand, streaming platforms, shrinking exclusive theatrical release windows or release of movies to theatrical exhibition and streaming platforms on the same date, the theatrical release of fewer movies due to industry consolidation or other reasons, or transitioning to other forms of entertainment;

​

•

the impact of changing movie-going behavior of consumers;

​

•

the risk that the North American and international box office in the near term will not recover sufficiently, resulting in continued cash burn and the need to seek additional financing, which may not be available at favorable terms, or at all;

​

•

risks and uncertainties relating to our significant indebtedness, including our borrowings and our ability to meet our debt covenants;

​

S-4

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•

the dilution caused by recent and potential future sales of our common stock and future potential share issuances to repay, refinance, redeem or repurchase indebtedness (including expenses, accrued interest and premium, if any);

​

•

risks relating to motion picture production, promotion, marketing, and performance, including labor stoppages affecting the production, supply and release schedule of theatrical motion picture content and the financial burden imposed by tariffs on motion picture production;

​

•

the seasonality of our revenue and working capital, which are dependent upon the timing of motion picture releases by distributors, such releases being seasonal and resulting in higher attendance and revenues generally during the summer months and holiday seasons, and higher working capital requirements during the other periods such as the first quarter;

​

•

intense competition in the geographic areas in which we operate among exhibitors, streaming platforms, or from other forms of entertainment;

​

•

certain covenants in the agreements that govern our indebtedness that limit or restrict our ability to take advantage of certain business opportunities, pay dividends, incur additional debt, pre-pay debt, and also to refinance debt and to do so at favorable terms, and such covenants that impose additional administrative and operational burdens on our business;

​

•

risks relating to impairment losses, including with respect to goodwill and other intangibles, and theatre and other closure charges;

​

•

general and international economic, political, regulatory, social and financial market conditions, including potential economic recession, inflation, rising interest rates, the financial stability of the banking industry, and other risks that may negatively impact discretionary income and our revenues and attendance levels;

​

•

our lack of control over distributors of films;

​

•

limitations on the availability of capital or poor financial results may prevent us from deploying strategic initiatives;

​

•

an issuance of preferred stock could dilute the voting power of the common stockholders and adversely affect the market value of our outstanding common stock;

​

•

limitations on the authorized number of common stock shares could in the future prevent us from raising additional capital through sales of common stock;

​

•

our ability to achieve expected synergies, benefits and performance from our strategic initiatives;

​

•

our ability to refinance our indebtedness on terms favorable to us or at all;

​

•

our ability to optimize our theatre circuit through new construction, the transformation of our existing theatres, and strategically closing underperforming theatres may be subject to delay and unanticipated costs;

​

•

failures, unavailability or security breaches of our information systems, including due to cybersecurity incidents;

​

•

our ability to utilize interest expense deductions will be limited annually due to Section 163(j) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, as amended by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act of 2025;

​

•

our ability to recognize interest deduction carryforwards, net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes to reduce our future tax liability;

​

•

our ability to recognize certain international deferred tax assets which currently do not have a valuation allowance recorded;

​

•

review by antitrust authorities in connection with acquisition opportunities;

​

•

risks relating to the incurrence of legal liability;

​

•

dependence on key personnel for current and future performance and our ability to attract and retain senior executives and other key personnel, including in connection with any future acquisitions;

​

S-5

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•

increased costs in order to comply or resulting from a failure to comply with governmental regulation, including the General Data Protection Regulation and all other current and pending privacy and data regulations in the jurisdictions where we have operations;

​

•

supply chain disruptions may negatively impact our operating results;

​

•

the availability and/or cost of energy;

​

•

the market price and trading volume of our shares of common stock has been and may continue to be volatile, and purchasers of our securities could incur substantial losses;

​

•

future offerings of debt, which would be senior to our common stock for purposes of distributions or upon liquidation, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock;

​

•

the potential for political, social, or economic unrest, terrorism, hostilities, cyber-attacks or war, including the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and other international conflicts;

​

•

the potential impact of financial and economic sanctions on the regional and global economy, or widespread health emergencies, such as pandemics or epidemics, causing people to avoid our theatres or other public places where large crowds are in attendance;

​

•

anti-takeover protections in our Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”) and our Fourth Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “bylaws”) may discourage or prevent a takeover of our Company, even if an acquisition would be beneficial to our stockholders; and

​

•

other risks and uncertainties identified in this prospectus supplement and in the documents incorporated herein by reference.

​

This list of factors that may affect future performance and the accuracy of forward-looking statements is illustrative but not exhaustive. In addition, new risks and uncertainties may arise from time to time. Accordingly, all forward-looking statements should be evaluated with an understanding of their inherent uncertainty and we caution accordingly against relying on forward-looking statements.

Consider these factors carefully in evaluating the forward-looking statements. Additional factors that may cause results to differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements are set forth in this prospectus supplement under “Risk Factors,” as well as those set forth in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in the Annual Report and in subsequent reports filed by us with the SEC, including on Form 8-K. Because of the foregoing, you are cautioned against relying on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. We do not undertake to update any of these statements in light of new information or future events, except as required by applicable law.

Our growth has been driven by a combination of organic growth through reinvestment in our existing assets and through the acquisition of some of the most significant companies in the theatrical exhibition industry.

Risks Related to This Offering

There has been significant recent dilution and there may continue to be additional future dilution of our common stock, which could adversely affect the market price of shares of our common stock.

From January 1, 2020 through March 23, 2026, the outstanding shares of our common stock have increased by 577,589,242 shares (on a Reverse Stock Split adjusted basis) in a combination of at the market sales, forward sales, conversion of Series A Convertible Participating Preferred Stock, shareholder litigation settlement, conversion of Class B common stock, conversion of notes, exchanges of notes, transaction fee payments, and equity grant vesting. On March 14, 2023, we held a special meeting of our stockholders and obtained the requisite stockholder approval for the Charter Amendments (as defined in the Annual Report) and on August 14, 2023 we filed the amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation implementing the Charter Amendments, effective as of August 24, 2023. Accordingly, in accordance with the Charter Amendments, we increased the total number of authorized shares of common stock from 524,173,073 to 550,000,000 shares of common stock and effectuated a reverse stock split at a ratio of one share of common stock for every ten shares of common stock outstanding (the “Reverse Stock Split”). In accordance with the terms of the Certificate of Designations governing the Series A Convertible Participating Preferred Stock, following the effectiveness of the Charter Amendments all outstanding shares of our Series A Convertible Participating Preferred Stock converted into 99,540,642 shares of common stock. In addition, as described below, on December 10, 2025, following approval by our stockholders at the Annual Meeting (as defined below), we increased the total number of authorized shares of common stock from 550,000,000 to 1,100,000,000.

On July 22, 2024, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries consummated a series of refinancing transactions pursuant to which Muvico, LLC (“Muvico”) a newly formed wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, issued $414.4 million aggregate principal amount of 6.00%/8.00% Cash/PIK Toggle Senior Secured Exchangeable Notes due 2030 (the “Existing Exchangeable Notes”) that are exchangeable for shares of common stock. On July 1, 2025, the Company and Muvico commenced a series of further refinancing transactions with certain of its debt holders pursuant to which the Company issued 79,800,000 shares of common stock in exchange for $143.0 million aggregate principal amount of Existing Exchangeable Notes. Subsequently, on July 24, 2025, the Company exchanged approximately $194.4 million aggregate principal amount of Existing Exchangeable Notes for Senior Secured Exchangeable Notes due 2030 (the “New Exchangeable Notes” and, together with the Existing Exchangeable Notes, the “Exchangeable Notes”) on a dollar-for-dollar basis. On September 30, 2025, $39.9 million aggregate principal of New Exchangeable Notes were cancelled pursuant to a downward adjustment feature in the New Exchangeable Notes, which represented the maximum possible downward adjustment under the New Exchangeable Notes. More information on the details of the Refinancing Transactions can be found in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2025.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

As of December 31, 2025, approximately $111.6 million aggregate principal amount of Existing Exchangeable Notes were outstanding, including interest paid-in-kind in the form of additional Existing Exchangeable Notes (“PIK Notes”) to the holders thereof on December 15, 2025. If the outstanding Existing Exchangeable Notes were exchanged fully into shares of common stock as of March 20, 2026, they would be exchanged for an aggregate of 22,256,362 shares of common stock. If the outstanding Existing Exchangeable Notes were exchanged fully for shares of common stock at maturity, and we were to elect to issue additional Existing Exchangeable Notes as PIK Notes on such outstanding Existing Exchangeable Notes and PIK Notes to the full extent permitted during the life of the Existing Exchangeable Notes (without regard to any limitations on our authorized share capital or on the exchange therein and giving effect to the changes in the applicable make-whole fee over the period), such Existing Exchangeable Notes (including PIK Notes) would be exchangeable at maturity for an aggregate of 27,798,989 shares of common stock.

At the Company’s 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on December 10, 2025 (the “Annual Meeting”), the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to increase the total number of authorized shares of common stock from 550,000,000 shares to 1,100,000,000 shares (the “Authorized Share Increase”), which additional shares may be used for at-the-market sales (subject to certain caps on usage of at-the-market sales for the six months following the Annual Meeting pursuant to the terms of the indenture governing the New Exchangeable Notes), exchanges of notes, private placement transactions, equity grant vesting and other dilutive issuances. Accordingly, we may issue additional shares of common stock to raise cash to bolster our liquidity, to repay, refinance, redeem or exchange indebtedness (including expenses, accrued interest and premium, if any), for working capital, to finance strategic initiatives and future acquisitions, to settle exchanges of the Existing Exchangeable Notes, including any PIK Notes, to settle exchanges of the New Exchangeable Notes, or for other purposes. In addition, in connection with the Authorized Share Increase, the New Exchangeable Notes have become exchangeable, and depending on the stock price fixed for exchange, we have reserved 141,407,920 shares of common stock to be exchanged for the New Exchangeable Notes. Furthermore, in connection with the Refinancing Transactions and the issuance of the New Exchangeable Notes, we agreed to pay a fee, in the form of $15.0 million (the “July 2025 Consent Fee”) payable in shares of common stock, based on a price determined based on the average of the daily volume-weighted average price of our common stock for the sixty consecutive trading days commencing on December 22, 2025. Additionally, as consent fees for amending their respective indentures to provide us with greater flexibility to refinance our capital structure, we agreed to pay fees to (i) the consenting holders of the New Exchangeable Notes a fee of $6.25 million (the “December 2025 Consent Fee” and, together with the July 2025 Consent Fee, the “Consent Fees”), payable in shares of common stock, based on a price determined based on the average of the daily volume-weighted average price of our common stock for the sixty consecutive trading days commencing on December 22, 2025, and (ii) to the consenting holders of Muvico’s Senior Secured Notes due 2029 a consent fee of $18.9 million, payable in 17,739,549 shares of our common stock on March 16, 2026, such amount determined based on the average of the daily volume-weighted average price of shares of our common stock for the thirty consecutive trading days commencing January 29, 2026.

As of March 23, 2026, there were 582,797,250 shares of common stock issued and outstanding. We expect to issue additional shares of common stock. In addition, shares of our common stock may be used to settle exchanges of the Exchangeable Notes, including any additional Exchangeable Notes or interest paid in-kind by issuing Exchangeable Notes, or for other purposes. We may also issue preferred equity securities or securities convertible into, or exchangeable for, or that represent the right to receive, shares of common stock or acquire interests in other companies, or other assets by using a combination of cash and shares of common stock, or just shares of common stock. Additionally, vesting of outstanding awards pursuant to our current and legacy equity compensation programs results in the issuance of new shares of common stock, net of any shares withheld to cover tax withholding obligations upon vesting. Any of these events may significantly dilute the ownership interests of current stockholders, reduce our earnings per share or have an adverse effect on the price of our shares of common stock.

As of March 23, 2026, we had remaining approximately 227,859,020 authorized shares of common stock that have not been issued or reserved for issuance in connection with our current at-the-market offering announced on February 9, 2026 (the “ATM Program”), our employee plans or exchanges under the Exchangeable Notes. As a result, we may in the future seek to obtain the requisite stockholder approval

TABLE OF CONTENTS

for the authorization of an additional number of authorized and unissued and unreserved shares of common stock, which may be used for at-the-market sales, exchanges of notes, private placement transactions, equity grant vesting and other dilutive issuances. These future issuances may be dilutive and may result in a decline in the market price of our common stock. The remaining authorized shares assume that no additional PIK interest is paid on the Existing Exchangeable Notes and that the shares remaining to be sold under the ATM Program are issued at an assumed price of $0.98, representing the closing sales price of our common stock on the NYSE on March 20, 2026. Actual share issuances will vary based on changes in the market price of our common stock.

The market price and trading volume of our shares of common stock have experienced, and may continue to experience, extreme volatility, which could cause purchasers of our common stock to incur substantial losses.

The market prices and trading volume of our shares of common stock have experienced, and may continue to experience, extreme volatility, which could cause purchasers of our common stock to incur substantial losses. For example, during 2025 and 2026 to date, the market price of our common stock has fluctuated from an intra-day low on the NYSE of $0.98 per share on March 20, 2026, to an intra-day high on the NYSE of $4.13 on January 7, 2025. The last reported sale price of our common stock on the NYSE on March 20, 2026, was $0.98 per share. During 2025 and 2026 to date, daily trading volume ranged from approximately 4,237,100 to 72,240,900 shares.

We believe that the volatility and our market prices have reflected and may continue to reflect market and trading dynamics unrelated to our underlying business, or macro or industry fundamentals, and we do not know how long these dynamics will last. Under the circumstances, we caution you against investing in our common stock, unless you are prepared to incur the risk of losing all or a substantial portion of your investment.

Extreme fluctuations in the market price of our common stock have been accompanied by reports of strong and atypical retail investor interest, including on social media and online forums. The market volatility and trading patterns we have experienced create several risks for investors, including the following:

•

the market price of our common stock has experienced and may continue to experience rapid and substantial increases or decreases unrelated to our operating performance or prospects, or macro or industry fundamentals, and substantial increases may be significantly inconsistent with the risks and uncertainties that we continue to face;

​

•

factors in the public trading market for our common stock may include the sentiment of retail investors (including as may be expressed on financial trading and other social media sites and online forums), the direct access by retail investors to broadly available trading platforms, the amount and status of short interest in our securities, access to margin debt, trading in options and other derivatives on our common stock and any related hedging and other trading factors;

​

•

our market capitalization, as implied by various trading prices, currently reflects valuations that diverge significantly from historical valuations, and to the extent these valuations reflect trading dynamics unrelated to our financial performance or prospects, purchasers of our common stock could incur substantial losses if there are declines in market prices;

​

•

to the extent volatility in our common stock is caused, or may from time to time be caused, as has widely been reported, by a “short squeeze” in which coordinated trading activity causes a spike in the market price of our common stock as traders with a short position make market purchases to avoid or to mitigate potential losses, investors purchase at inflated prices unrelated to our financial performance or prospects, and may thereafter suffer substantial losses as prices decline once the level of short-covering purchases has abated; and

​

•

if the market price of our common stock declines, investors may be unable to resell shares of our common stock at or above the price at which their investment was made. Our common stock may continue to fluctuate or decline significantly in the future, which may result in substantial losses.

​

Future increases or decreases in the market price of our common stock may not coincide in timing with the disclosure of news or developments by or affecting us. Accordingly, the market price of our shares of common stock may fluctuate dramatically, and may decline rapidly, regardless of any developments in our

S-11

TABLE OF CONTENTS

business. Overall, there are various factors, many of which are beyond our control, that could negatively affect the market price of our common stock or result in fluctuations in the price or trading volume of our common stock, including:

•

actual or anticipated variations in our annual or quarterly results of operations, including our earnings estimates and whether we meet market expectations with regard to our earnings;

​

•

restrictions on our ability to pay dividends or other distributions;

​

•

publication of research reports by analysts or others about us or the motion picture exhibition industry, which may be unfavorable, inaccurate, inconsistent or not disseminated on a regular basis;

​

•

changes in market interest rates that may cause purchasers of our shares to demand a different yield;

​

•

changes in market valuations of similar companies;

​

•

market reaction to any additional equity, debt or other securities that we may issue in the future, and which may or may not dilute the holdings of our existing stockholders;

​

•

additions or departures of key personnel;

​

•

actions by institutional or significant stockholders;

​

•

short interest in our securities and the market response to such short interest;

​

•

the dramatic increase or decrease in the number of individual holders of our common stock and their participation in social media platforms targeted at speculative investing;

​

•

speculation in the press or investment community about our company or industry;

​

•

strategic actions by us or our competitors, such as acquisitions or other investments;

​

•

legislative, administrative, regulatory or other actions affecting our business or our industry, including positions taken by the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”);

​

•

strategic actions taken by motion picture studios, such as the shuffling of film release dates;

​

•

investigations, proceedings, or litigation that involve or affect us;

​

•

ongoing impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic;

​

•

the occurrence of any of the other risk factors included or incorporated by reference in our Annual Report; and

​

•

general market and economic conditions.

​

A “short squeeze” due to a sudden increase in demand for shares of our common stock that largely exceeds supply and/or focused investor trading in anticipation of a potential short squeeze have led to and could again lead to extreme price volatility in shares of our common stock.

Investors may purchase shares of our common stock to hedge existing exposure or to speculate on the price of our common stock. Speculation on the price of our common stock may involve long and short exposures. To the extent aggregate short exposure exceeds the number of shares of our common stock available for purchase on the open market, investors with short exposure may have to pay a premium to repurchase shares of our common stock for delivery to lenders of our common stock. Those repurchases may, in turn, dramatically increase the price of shares of our common stock until additional shares of our common stock are available for trading or borrowing. This is often referred to as a “short squeeze.” A large proportion of our common stock has been in the past and may be traded in the future by short sellers, which may increase the likelihood that our common stock will be the target of a short squeeze, and there is widespread speculation that the trading price of our common stock has been from time to time the result of a short squeeze. A short squeeze and/or focused investor trading in anticipation of a short squeeze have led to and could again lead to volatile price movements in shares of our common stock that may be unrelated or disproportionate to our operating performance or prospects and, once investors purchase the shares of our common stock necessary to cover their short positions, or if investors no longer believe a short squeeze is viable, the price of our common stock may rapidly decline. Investors that purchase shares of our common

S-12

TABLE OF CONTENTS

stock during a short squeeze may lose a significant portion of their investment. Investors that purchase in anticipation of a short squeeze that is never realized may also lose a significant portion of their investment. Under the circumstances, we caution you against investing in our common stock, unless you are prepared to incur the risk of losing all or a substantial portion of your investment.

Negative sentiment among AMC’s retail stockholder base could have a material adverse impact on the market price of the common stock and your investment therein.

Some of our retail investors have referred to themselves as “Apes” on social media and in other forums. Self-proclaimed “Apes” are widely viewed as playing a significant role in the market dynamics that have resulted in substantial increases and volatility in the market prices of AMC’s common stock and other so-called “meme” stocks. See “— The market price and trading volume of our shares of common stock have experienced, and may continue to experience, extreme volatility, which could cause purchasers of our common stock to incur substantial losses.” While AMC and its management have actively sought to foster positive relationships with its significant retail stockholder base as the owners of AMC, and while AMC’s retail stockholder base has been credited favorably with assisting AMC in raising significant capital in the past, there is no guarantee that AMC will be able to continue to benefit from support from its retail stockholder base in the future. Negative investor sentiment, including as a result of this offering or this prospectus supplement, could have a material adverse impact on the market price of our common stock.

Information available in public media that is published by third parties, including blogs, articles, online forums, message boards and social and other media may include statements not attributable to the Company and may not be reliable or accurate.

We have received, and may continue to receive, a high degree of media coverage that is published or otherwise disseminated by third parties, including blogs, articles, online forums, message boards and social and other media. This includes coverage that is not attributable to statements made by our directors, officers or employees. You should read carefully, evaluate and rely only on the information contained in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus or any applicable free writing prospectus or incorporated documents filed with the SEC in determining whether to purchase our shares of common stock. Information provided by third parties may not be reliable or accurate and could materially impact the trading price of our common stock, which could cause losses to your investments.

Future offerings of debt, which would be senior to our common stock upon liquidation, and/or other preferred equity securities, which may be senior to our common stock for purposes of distributions or upon liquidation, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock.

In the future, we may attempt to increase our capital resources by making additional offerings of debt or preferred equity securities, including convertible or non-convertible senior or subordinated notes, convertible or non-convertible preferred stock, medium-term notes and trust preferred securities, to raise cash or bolster our liquidity, to repay, refinance, redeem or repurchase indebtedness (including expenses, accrued interest and premium, if any), for working capital, to finance strategic initiatives and future acquisitions or for other purposes. Upon liquidation, holders of our debt securities and lenders with respect to other borrowings will receive distributions of our available assets prior to the holders of our common stock. In addition, any additional preferred stock we may issue could have a preference on liquidating distributions or a preference on distribution payments that could limit our ability to make a distribution to the holders of our common stock. Since our decision to issue securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of our future offerings. Thus, our stockholders bear the risk of our future offerings potentially reducing the market price of our common stock.

Anti-takeover protections in our Certificate of Incorporation and our bylaws may discourage or prevent a takeover of our Company, even if an acquisition would be beneficial to our stockholders.

Provisions contained in our Certificate of Incorporation and bylaws, as amended, as well as provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), delay or make it more difficult to remove incumbent directors or for a third party to acquire us, even if a takeover would benefit our stockholders. These provisions include:

S-13

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•

a classified board of directors;

​

•

the sole power of a majority of the board of directors to fix the number of directors;

​

•

limitations on the removal of directors;

​

•

the sole power of the board of directors to fill any vacancy on the board of directors, whether such vacancy occurs as a result of an increase in the number of directors or otherwise;

​

•

the ability of our board of directors to designate one or more series of preferred stock and issue shares of preferred stock without stockholder approval; and

​

•

the inability of stockholders to call special meetings.

​

Our issuance of shares of preferred stock could delay or prevent a change of control of our company. Our board of directors (the “AMC Board”) has the authority to cause us to issue, without any further vote or action by the stockholders, up to 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, in one or more series, to designate the number of shares constituting any series, and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions thereof, including dividend rights, voting rights, rights and terms of redemption, redemption price or prices and liquidation preferences of such series. The issuance of shares of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of our company without further action by the stockholders, even where stockholders are offered a premium for their shares. As of March 23, 2026, 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock are authorized and available for issuance.

Our incorporation under Delaware law, the ability of the AMC Board to create and issue a new series of preferred stock or a stockholder rights plan and certain other provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation and bylaws, as amended, could impede a merger, takeover or other business combination involving our company or the replacement of our management or discourage a potential investor from making a tender offer for our common stock, which, under certain circumstances, could reduce the market value of our common stock.

An issuance of preferred stock could dilute the voting power of the common stockholders and adversely affect the market value of our common stock.

The issuance of shares of preferred stock with voting rights may adversely affect the voting power of the holders of our other classes of voting stock either by diluting the voting power of our other classes of voting stock if they vote together as a single class or by giving the holders of any such preferred stock the right to block an action on which they have a separate class vote even if the action were approved by the holders of our other classes of voting stock.

In addition, the issuance of shares of preferred stock with dividend or conversion rights, liquidation preferences or other economic terms favorable to the holders of preferred stock could adversely affect the market price for our common stock by making an investment in the common stock less attractive. For example, investors may not wish to purchase common stock at a price above the conversion price of a series of convertible preferred stock because the holders of the preferred stock would effectively be entitled to purchase common stock at the lower conversion price causing economic dilution to the holders of common stock.

Increases in market interest rates may cause potential investors to seek higher returns and therefore reduce demand for our common stock, which could result in a decline in the market price of our common stock.

One of the factors that may influence the price of our common stock is the return on our common stock (i.e., the amount of distributions or price appreciation as a percentage of the price of our common stock) relative to market interest rates. An increase in market interest rates may lead prospective purchasers of our common stock to expect a return, which we may be unable or choose not to provide. Further, higher interest rates would likely increase our borrowing costs and potentially decrease the cash available for distribution. Thus, higher market interest rates could cause the market price of our common stock to decline.

TABLE OF CONTENTS​

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

The following description of our capital stock is summarized from and qualified in its entirety by reference to Delaware law, our Certificate of Incorporation and our bylaws, each of which has been publicly filed with the SEC. See the section entitled “Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation of Documents by Reference.”

Our authorized capital stock consists of 1,100,000,000 shares of common stock and 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share. As of March 23, 2026, there are 582,797,250 shares of common stock issued and outstanding and no shares of preferred stock outstanding. Our common stock is listed on the NYSE under the symbol “AMC.” The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is Computershare Trust Company, N.A.

Voting Rights

Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share. Our directors are elected by all of the common stockholders voting together as a single class.

Generally, all matters to be voted on by stockholders must be approved by a majority (or, in the case of election of directors, by a plurality) of our outstanding voting power. Except as otherwise required by the DGCL, our Certificate of Incorporation or voting rights granted to any subsequently issued preferred stock, the holders of outstanding shares of our common stock and our preferred stock entitled to vote thereon, if any, vote as one class with respect to all matters to be voted on by our stockholders. Under the DGCL, amendments to our Certificate of Incorporation that would alter or change the powers, preferences or special rights of the common stock so as to affect them adversely also must be approved by a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of the shares affected by the amendment, voting as a separate class.

Conversion

The common stock is not convertible into any other shares of our capital stock.

No class of common stock may be subdivided or combined unless the other class of common stock concurrently is subdivided or combined in the same proportion and in the same manner.

Dividends

Holders of common stock share ratably (based on the number of shares of common stock held) in any dividend declared by the AMC Board, subject to any preferential rights of any outstanding preferred stock.

Other Rights

Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, after payment in full of the amounts required to be paid to holders of preferred stock, if any, all holders of common stock, regardless of class, will be entitled to share ratably in any assets available for distribution to holders of shares of common stock. No shares of any class of common stock are subject to redemption or have preemptive rights to purchase additional shares of common stock.

Preferred Stock

AMC’s Certificate of Incorporation authorizes the AMC Board to issue from time to time up to an aggregate of 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series without further stockholder approval. The AMC Board is authorized, without further stockholder approval, to establish one or more series of preferred stock and to determine, with respect to each such series, the designations, preferences, rights and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions of the shares of each such series thereof, including the dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption (including sinking fund provisions), redemption price or prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any series or designations of such series. The issuance of our preferred stock could have the effect of decreasing the trading price of our common stock, restricting dividends on our capital stock, diluting the voting

S-16

TABLE OF CONTENTS

power of our common stock, impairing the liquidation rights of our capital stock, or delaying or preventing a change in control of our Company.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Certain Provisions of Delaware Law, the Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws

Certain provisions of our Certificate of Incorporation and bylaws may be considered to have an anti-takeover effect and may delay or prevent a tender offer or other corporate transaction that a stockholder might consider to be in its best interest, including those transactions that might result in payment of a premium over the market price for our shares. These provisions are designed to discourage certain types of transactions that may involve an actual or threatened change of control of AMC without prior approval of the AMC Board. These provisions are meant to encourage persons interested in acquiring control of AMC to first consult with the AMC Board to negotiate terms of a potential business combination or offer. For example, the Certificate of Incorporation and bylaws:

•

provide for a classified board of directors, pursuant to which the AMC Board is divided into three classes whose members serve three-year staggered terms;

​

•

provide that the size of the AMC Board will be set by members of the AMC Board, and any vacancy on the AMC Board, including a vacancy resulting from an enlargement of the AMC Board, may be filled only by vote of a majority of the directors then in office;

​

•

do not permit stockholders to take action by written consent;

​

•

provide that, except as otherwise required by law, special meetings of stockholders can only be called by the AMC Board;

​

•

establish an advance notice procedure for stockholder proposals to be brought before an annual meeting of stockholders, including proposed nominations of candidates for election to the AMC Board;

​

•

limit consideration by stockholders at annual meetings to only those proposals or nominations specified in the notice of meeting or brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the AMC Board or by a stockholder of record on the record date for the meeting who is entitled to vote at the meeting and who has delivered timely written notice in proper form to our secretary of the stockholder’s intention to bring such business before the meeting;

​

•

authorize the issuance of “blank check” preferred stock that could be issued by the AMC Board to increase the number of outstanding shares or establish a stockholders rights plan making a takeover more difficult and expensive; and

​

•

do not permit cumulative voting in the election of directors, which would otherwise allow less than a majority of stockholders to elect director candidates.

​

The Certificate of Incorporation expressly states that we have elected not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL, which prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with an “interested stockholder” for a period of three years after the time the stockholder became an interested stockholder, subject to certain exceptions, including if, prior to such time, the board of such corporation approved the business combination or the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder. “Business combinations” include mergers, asset sales and other transactions resulting in a financial benefit to the “interested stockholder.” Subject to various exceptions, an “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with his or her affiliates and associates, owns, or within three years did own, 15% or more of the corporation’s outstanding voting stock. These restrictions generally prohibit or delay the accomplishment of mergers or other takeover or change-in-control attempts that are not approved by a company’s board. Although we have elected to opt out of the statute’s provisions, we could elect to be subject to Section 203 in the future.

The bylaws state that unless AMC consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware shall be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of AMC, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee of AMC to AMC or AMC’s stockholders, (iii) any action asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or the Certificate of Incorporation or

S-17

TABLE OF CONTENTS

bylaws, or (iv) any action asserting a claim against AMC governed by the internal affairs doctrine; provided, however, that this provision of the bylaws does not apply to any actions arising under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.

Special Meeting of Stockholders

Special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by a majority of our directors.

No Actions by Written Consent

Stockholder action can be taken only at an annual or special meeting of stockholders.

Advance Notice Requirements for Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations

The bylaws provide that stockholders seeking to bring business before an annual meeting of stockholders, or to nominate candidates for election as directors at an annual meeting of stockholders, must provide timely notice thereof in writing. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice generally must be delivered to and received at our principal executive offices, not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting; provided, that in the event that the date of such meeting is advanced more than 30 days prior to, or delayed by more than 70 days after, the anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting of our stockholders, a stockholder’s notice to be timely must be so delivered not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to such meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to such meeting or the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made. The bylaws also specify certain requirements as to the form and content of a stockholder’s notice. These provisions may preclude stockholders from bringing matters before an annual meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors at an annual meeting of stockholders.

Authorized but Unissued Shares

The authorized but unissued shares of common stock and preferred stock are available for future issuance without stockholder approval. These additional shares may be used for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings to raise additional capital, corporate acquisitions, employee benefit plans and debt-for-equity exchanges. The existence of authorized but unissued shares of common stock and preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of AMC by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.

Amendments to Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws

The Certificate of Incorporation provides that the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares entitled to vote on any matter is required to amend the Certificate of Incorporation. In addition, under the DGCL, an amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation that would alter or change the powers, preferences or special rights of the common stock so as to affect them adversely also must be approved by a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of the shares affected by the amendment, voting as a separate class. Subject to the bylaws, the AMC Board may from time to time make, amend, supplement or repeal the bylaws by vote of a majority of the AMC Board.

Limitation of Liability and Indemnification of Directors and Officers

As permitted by the DGCL, we have adopted provisions in the Certificate of Incorporation that limit or eliminate the personal liability of our directors and officers for monetary damages for a breach of their fiduciary duty of care as a director or officer. The duty of care generally requires that, when acting on behalf of the corporation, directors and officers exercise an informed business judgment based on all material information reasonably available to them. Consequently, a director or officer will not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, except for liability for:

•

any breach of the person’s duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders;

​

S-18

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•

any act or omission not in good faith or that involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

​

•

any act related to unlawful stock repurchases, redemptions or other distributions or payment of dividends; or

​

•

any transaction from which the person derived an improper personal benefit.

​

These limitations of liability do not generally affect the availability of equitable remedies such as injunctive relief or rescission.

As permitted by the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation and bylaws provide that:

•

we will indemnify our current and former directors and officers and anyone who is or was serving at our request as the director or officer of, or legal representative in, another entity, and may indemnify our current or former employees and other agents, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, subject to limited exceptions; and

​

•

we may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of our current or former directors, officers, employees or agents against any liability asserted against them and incurred by them in any such capacity, or arising out of their status as such.

​

We currently maintain liability insurance for our directors and officers.

The Certificate of Incorporation requires us to advance expenses to our directors and officers in connection with a legal proceeding, subject to receiving an undertaking from such director or officer to repay advanced amounts if it is determined he or she is not entitled to indemnification. The bylaws provide that we may advance expenses to our employees and other agents, upon such terms and conditions, if any, as we deem appropriate.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

This prospectus supplement relates to the possible offer and resale by the selling stockholders from time to time of 15,378,194 shares of common stock described below issued to pay the Consent Fees. We are registering the offer and resale of the shares of our common stock owned by the selling stockholders to satisfy certain registration rights we granted to the selling stockholders in connection with the Consent Fees. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of common stock by the selling stockholders pursuant to this prospectus supplement. The selling stockholders may sell all, some or none of the common stock registered hereby. See “Plan of Distribution.”

For purposes of this prospectus supplement, “selling stockholders” include the stockholders listed below and their permitted transferees, pledgees, assignees, distributees, donees or successors or others who later hold any of the selling stockholders’ interests. Our registration of the shares of common stock does not necessarily mean that the selling stockholders will sell all or any of such shares of common stock pursuant to this prospectus supplement or otherwise. The following table sets forth certain information as of March 23, 2026 concerning the shares of common stock that may be offered from time to time by the selling stockholders with this prospectus supplement. The information is based on information provided by or on behalf of the selling stockholders. Information about the selling stockholders may change over time. In particular, the selling stockholders identified below may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of all or a portion of their shares of common stock since the date on which they provided us with information regarding their interests. Any changed or new information given to us by the selling stockholders will be set forth in subsequent prospectus supplements or amendments to the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement is a part, if and when necessary.

The applicable percentage ownership of common stock is based on 724,205,170 shares of common stock (including shares of common stock underlying the New Exchangeable Notes beneficially owned by the selling stockholders) as of March 23, 2026. Information with respect to securities owned beneficially after the offering assumes the sale of all of the shares of common stock registered hereby. The selling stockholders may offer and sell some, all or none of their shares of common stock.

The beneficial ownership of the common stock set forth in the following table is determined in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act, and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose.

The amounts set forth in this column are the shares of common stock that may be offered for sale from time to time by the selling stockholders using this prospectus supplement. These amounts do not represent any other shares of our common stock that the selling stockholders may own beneficially or otherwise. Further, we do not know when or in what amounts the selling stockholders may offer the shares of common stock for sale. The selling stockholders may decide not to sell any or all of the shares of common stock offered by this prospectus supplement. Because the selling stockholders may offer all, some or none of the shares of common stock pursuant to this offering, we cannot estimate the number of shares of the common stock that will be held by the selling stockholders after completion of the offering. However, for purposes of this table, we have assumed that the selling stockholders will sell all of the shares of common stock covered by this prospectus supplement.

Broker-dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the selling stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in this prospectus supplement, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121.

The selling stockholders may pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock owned by them and, if they default in the performance of their secured obligations, the pledgees or

S-22

TABLE OF CONTENTS

secured parties may offer and sell the shares of common stock from time to time pursuant to this prospectus supplement or any amendment to this prospectus supplement under Rule 424(b)(7) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending, if necessary, the list of selling stockholders to include the pledgee, transferee or other successors in interest as selling stockholders under this prospectus supplement. The selling stockholders also may transfer and donate the shares of common stock in other circumstances in which case the transferees, donees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus supplement.

The selling stockholders may also enter into hedging transactions. For example, the selling stockholders may:

•

enter into transactions with a broker-dealer or affiliate thereof in connection with which such broker-dealer or affiliate will engage in short sales of the common stock pursuant to this prospectus supplement, in which case such broker-dealer or affiliate may use the common stock received from, borrowed or pledged by the selling stockholder or others to close out any related short positions;

​

•

sell the common stock short and re-deliver such shares to close out its short positions;

​

•

enter into options or other types of transactions that require the selling stockholders, as applicable, to deliver the common stock to a broker-dealer or an affiliate thereof, who will then resell or transfer the common stock under this prospectus supplement; or

​

•

loan or pledge the common stock to a broker-dealer or an affiliate thereof, who may sell the loaned shares or, in an event of default in the case of a pledge, sell the pledged shares pursuant to this prospectus supplement.

​

The common stock covered by this prospectus supplement may be sold:

•

on a national securities exchange;

​

•

in the over-the-counter market; or

​

•

in transactions otherwise than on an exchange or in the over-the-counter market, or in combination.

​

In addition, the selling stockholders may enter into derivative or hedging transactions with third parties, or sell securities not covered by this prospectus supplement to third parties in privately negotiated transactions. In connection with such a transaction, the third parties may sell securities covered by and pursuant to this prospectus supplement and an applicable pricing supplement, as the case may be. If so, the third party may use securities pledged by or borrowed from the selling stockholders or others to settle such sales and may use securities received from the selling stockholders to close out any related short positions. The selling stockholders may also loan or pledge securities covered by this prospectus supplement to third parties, who may sell the loaned securities or, in an event of default in the case of a pledge, sell the pledged securities pursuant to this prospectus supplement and the applicable pricing supplement, as the case may be. The third party in such sale transactions may be an underwriter and will be named in the applicable post-effective amendment to the extent required.

A selling stockholder that is an entity may elect to make an in-kind distribution of shares to its members, partners, stockholders or other equityholders pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement forms a part by delivering a prospectus supplement. To the extent that such members, partners, stockholders or other equityholders are not affiliates of ours, such members, partners, stockholders or other equityholders would thereby receive freely tradable shares pursuant to a distribution pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus supplement forms a part.

In effecting sales, broker-dealers or agents engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other broker-dealers to participate. Broker-dealers or agents may receive commissions, discounts or concessions from the selling stockholders in amounts to be negotiated immediately prior to the sale.

The selling stockholders will not pay any of the costs, expenses and fees in connection with the registration and sale of the common stock offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement, but they will pay any and all underwriting discounts, selling commissions and stock transfer taxes, if any, attributable to sales of the common stock offered pursuant to this prospectus supplement. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the common stock by the selling stockholders.

TABLE OF CONTENTS​

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

The following is a general discussion of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of our common stock issued pursuant to this offering. This discussion does not provide a complete analysis of all potential U.S. federal income tax considerations relating thereto. This description is based on the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and existing and proposed U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, administrative pronouncements, judicial decisions, and interpretations of the foregoing, all as of the date hereof and all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect in a manner that could adversely affect a non-U.S. holder.

This discussion is limited to non-U.S. holders (as defined below) who hold shares of our common stock as capital assets within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally for investment).

Moreover, this discussion is for general information only and does not address all of the tax consequences that may be relevant to you in light of your particular circumstances, including any alternative minimum tax, the Medicare tax on certain investment income or any state, local or foreign tax laws or any U.S. federal tax laws other than U.S. federal income tax laws (including estate and gift tax laws), nor does it discuss special tax provisions, which may apply to you if you are subject to special treatment under U.S. federal income tax laws, such as for:

•

certain financial institutions or financial services entities;

​

•

insurance companies;

​

•

tax-exempt entities or governmental organizations;

​

•

tax-qualified retirement plans;

​

•

“qualified foreign pension funds” ​(and entities all of the interests of which are held by qualified foreign pension funds);

​

•

brokers, dealers or traders in securities or currencies;

​

•

entities or arrangements that are treated as partnerships or other pass-through entities or arrangements for U.S. federal income tax purposes (and partners or beneficial owners therein);

​

•

foreign branches;

​

•

“controlled foreign corporations” and “foreign controlled foreign corporations”;

​

•

“passive foreign investment companies”;

​

•

U.S. expatriates and former U.S. citizens or long-term residents;

​

•

persons subject to special tax accounting rules as a result of any item of gross income with respect to our common stock being taken into account in an applicable financial statement;

​

•

corporations that accumulate earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax;

​

•

persons deemed to sell common stock under the constructive sale provisions of the Code; and

​

•

persons that hold common stock as part of a straddle, hedge, conversion transaction, or other integrated investment.

​

You are urged to consult your own tax advisor concerning the U.S. federal income tax consequences of purchasing, owning and disposing of our common stock, as well as the application of any state, local, foreign income and other tax laws and tax treaties. We have not sought and will not seek any rulings from the IRS regarding the matters discussed below. There can be no assurance the IRS or a court will not take a contrary position to that discussed below regarding the tax consequences of purchase, ownership and disposition of our common stock.

As used in this discussion, a “non-U.S. holder” is a beneficial owner of our common stock (other than a partnership or any other entity or arrangement treated as a pass-through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that is not, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

•

an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

​

S-25

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•

a corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) that is created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

​

•

an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

​

•

a trust if (i) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more “United States persons” ​(within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30)) of the Code have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (ii) it has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a domestic trust.

​

If a partnership or other entity or arrangement treated as a pass-through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes is a beneficial owner of our common stock, the tax treatment of a partner in the partnership or an owner of the other pass-through entity or arrangement generally will depend upon the status of the partner or owner and the activities of the partnership or other pass-through entity or arrangement. Any partnership, partner in such a partnership or owner of another pass-through entity or arrangement holding shares of our common stock should consult its own tax advisor as to the particular U.S. federal income tax consequences applicable to it.

THIS DISCUSSION IS FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES ONLY AND IS NOT TAX ADVICE. INVESTORS CONSIDERING THE PURCHASE OF OUR COMMON STOCK ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE APPLICATION OF U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX LAWS TO THEIR PARTICULAR SITUATIONS AND THE CONSEQUENCES OF OTHER FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND FOREIGN TAX LAWS, AND APPLICABLE TAX TREATIES.

Distributions on Common Stock

If we pay distributions on shares of our common stock (other than certain pro rata distributions of our common stock), such distributions generally will constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits generally will constitute a return of capital that is applied against and reduces, but not below zero, a non-U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in shares of our common stock. Any remaining excess generally will be treated as gain realized on the sale or other disposition of our common stock. See “Dispositions of Common Stock.”

Subject to the discussion below regarding effectively connected income, any dividend paid to a non-U.S. holder on our common stock will generally be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax at a 30% rate. The withholding tax might not apply, however, or might apply at a reduced rate, under the terms of an applicable income tax treaty. You are urged to consult your own tax advisor regarding your entitlement to benefits under a relevant income tax treaty. Generally, in order for us or our paying agent to withhold tax at a lower treaty rate, a non-U.S. holder must certify its entitlement to treaty benefits. A non-U.S. holder generally can meet this certification requirement by providing a valid IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or other applicable form or documentation), as applicable, to us or our paying agent, which then will be required to provide certification to the applicable withholding agent, either directly or through other intermediaries. If the non-U.S. holder holds the stock through a financial institution or other agent acting on the holder’s behalf, the holder will be required to provide appropriate documentation to the agent. A non-U.S. holder that does not timely furnish the required documentation, but that qualifies for a reduced treaty rate, may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by timely filing an appropriate claim for refund with the IRS.

Dividends received by a non-U.S. holder that are effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business conducted by the non-U.S. holder and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, are attributable to a permanent establishment (or, in certain cases involving individual holders, a fixed base) maintained by the non-U.S. holder in the United States, are generally not subject to such withholding tax. To obtain this exemption, a non-U.S. holder must provide us or the paying agent with a valid IRS Form W-8ECI properly certifying such exemption. Such effectively connected dividends, although not subject to withholding tax

S-26

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(provided certain certification and disclosure requirements are satisfied), are taxed at the same income tax rates applicable to United States persons, net of certain deductions and credits. In addition to the income tax described above, such effectively connected dividends received by corporate non-U.S. holders may also be subject to a branch profits tax at a rate of 30%, as adjusted for certain items, or such lower rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty. Non-U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors regarding any applicable tax treaties that may provide for different rules.

Dispositions of Common Stock

Subject to the discussion below on backup withholding and other withholding taxes, gain realized by a non-U.S. holder on a sale, exchange or other disposition of our common stock generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax, unless:

•

the gain (i) is effectively connected with the conduct by the non-U.S. holder of a U.S. trade or business and (ii) if required by an applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a permanent establishment (or, in certain cases involving individual holders, a fixed base) maintained by the non-U.S. holder in the United States (in which case the special rules described below apply);

​

•

the non-U.S. holder is an individual who is present in the United States for 183 or more days in the taxable year of such disposition and certain other conditions are met (in which case the gain would be subject to a flat 30% tax, or such reduced rate as may be specified by an applicable income tax treaty, which may be offset by certain U.S. source capital losses, provided the non-U.S. holder has timely filed U.S. federal income tax returns with respect to such losses); or

​

•

we are, or become, a “United States real property holding corporation” ​(a “USRPHC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes at any time during the shorter of the five-year period ending on the date of disposition of our common stock and the non-U.S. holder’s holding period for our common stock.

​

Generally, a corporation is a USRPHC if the fair market value of its “United States real property interests” equals 50% or more of the sum of the fair market value of (a) its worldwide real property interests and (b) its other assets used or held for use in a trade or business. The tax relating to dispositions of stock in a USRPHC does not apply to a non-U.S. holder whose holdings, actual and constructive, amount to 5% or less of our common stock at all times during the applicable period, provided that our common stock is regularly traded on an established securities market. No assurance can be provided that our common stock will be regularly traded on an established securities market at all times for purposes of the rules described above. Although there can be no assurances in this regard, we believe we have not been and are not currently a USRPHC, and do not anticipate being a USRPHC in the future. You are urged to consult your own tax advisor about the consequences that could result if we are, or become, a USRPHC.

If any gain from the sale, exchange or other disposition of our common stock, (1) is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business conducted by a non-U.S. holder and (2) if required by an applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a permanent establishment (or, in certain cases involving individuals, a fixed base) maintained by such non-U.S. holder in the United States, then the gain generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at the same income tax rates applicable to United States persons, net of certain deductions and credits. If the non-U.S. holder is a corporation, under certain circumstances, that portion of its earnings and profits that is effectively connected with its U.S. trade or business, subject to certain adjustments, generally would also be subject to a “branch profits tax.” The branch profits tax rate is 30%, although an applicable income tax treaty might provide for a lower rate.

Non-U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors regarding potentially applicable income tax treaties that may provide for different rules.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

Any distributions that are paid to a non-U.S. holder must be reported annually to the IRS and to the non-U.S. holder, regardless of whether such distributions constitute dividends or whether any tax was actually withheld. Copies of these information returns also may be made available to the tax authorities of the country in which the non-U.S. holder resides under the provisions of various treaties or agreements for the

S-27

TABLE OF CONTENTS

exchange of information. Dividends paid on our common stock and the gross proceeds from a taxable disposition of our common stock may be subject to additional information reporting and may also be subject to U.S. federal backup withholding if such non-U.S. holder fails to comply with applicable U.S. information reporting and certification requirements. Provision of an IRS Form W-8 appropriate to the non-U.S. holder’s circumstances should generally satisfy the certification requirements necessary to avoid the additional information reporting and backup withholding.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts so withheld under the backup withholding rules may be allowed as a refund by the IRS or a credit against the non-U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Other Withholding Taxes

Provisions commonly referred to as “FATCA” impose withholding (separate and apart from, but without duplication of, the withholding tax described above) at a rate of 30% on payments of U.S.-source dividends (including our dividends) paid to “foreign financial institutions” ​(which is broadly defined for this purpose and in general includes investment vehicles) and certain other non-U.S. entities unless various U.S. information reporting and due diligence requirements (generally relating to ownership by U.S. persons of interests in or accounts with those entities) have been satisfied, or an exemption applies. Withholding imposed by FATCA may also apply to gross proceeds from the sale or other disposition of domestic corporate stock (including our common stock); although, under proposed U.S. Treasury regulations, no withholding would apply to such gross proceeds. The preamble to the proposed U.S. Treasury regulations specifies that taxpayers (including withholding agents) are permitted to rely on the proposed U.S. Treasury regulations pending finalization. An intergovernmental agreement between the United States and an applicable foreign country may modify these requirements. Accordingly, the entity through which our common stock is held could affect the determination of whether such withholding is required. If FATCA withholding is imposed, a beneficial owner that is not a foreign financial institution may be entitled to a refund of any amounts withheld by filing a U.S. federal income tax return containing the required information (which may entail significant administrative burden). Non-U.S. holders are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the effects of FATCA on their investment in our common stock.

THE PRECEDING DISCUSSION OF U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES IS FOR GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY. IT IS NOT TAX ADVICE. EACH PROSPECTIVE INVESTOR IS URGED TO CONSULT ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE PARTICULAR U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND FOREIGN TAX CONSEQUENCES OF PURCHASING, OWNING AND DISPOSING OF OUR COMMON STOCK, INCLUDING THE CONSEQUENCES OF ANY PROPOSED CHANGE IN APPLICABLE LAWS AND TREATIES.

ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS

This prospectus is part of an automatic shelf registration statement that we filed with the SEC, as a “well-known seasoned issuer” as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). Under the automatic shelf registration process, we or the selling stockholders to be named in a prospectus supplement or free writing prospectus may offer and sell, from time to time, in one or more offerings, the securities described in this prospectus. This prospectus provides you with a general description of our securities that we may offer. To the extent required by applicable law, each time we or the selling stockholders sell securities, we will provide you with this prospectus and, to the extent required, a prospectus supplement that will contain more information about the specific terms of the offering. We may also authorize one or more free writing prospectuses to be provided to you that may contain material information relating to these offerings. Each such prospectus supplement (and any related free writing prospectus that we may authorize to be provided to you), if any, may also add, update or change information contained in this prospectus or in documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus. We urge you to carefully read this prospectus, any applicable prospectus supplement, if any, and any related free writing prospectus, together with the information incorporated herein and therein by reference as described under the headings “Where You Can Find Additional Information; Incorporation of Documents by Reference” before buying any of the shares of our securities being offered.

If given or made, any such other information or representation should not be relied upon as having been authorized by us or any selling stockholders. We and the selling stockholders may only offer to sell, and seek offers to buy, any securities in jurisdictions where offers and sales are permitted.

This prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement or other offering materials do not contain all of the information included in the registration statement as permitted by the rules and regulations of the SEC. For further information, we refer you to the registration statement on Form S-3, including its exhibits. We are subject to the informational requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and, therefore, file reports and other information with the SEC. Statements contained in this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement or other offering materials about the provisions or contents of any agreement or other document are only summaries. If SEC rules require that any agreement or document be filed as an exhibit to the registration statement, you should refer to that agreement or document for its complete contents.

You should assume that the information in this prospectus, any accompanying prospectus supplement or any other offering materials is only accurate as of the date on its respective cover, and that any information incorporated by reference is accurate only as of the date of the document incorporated by reference, unless otherwise indicated.

TABLE OF CONTENTS​

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements made in this prospectus, the documents that are incorporated by reference in this prospectus and other written or oral statements made by or on behalf of AMC may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “will,” “forecast,” “estimate,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “expect,” “should,” “believe” and other similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These forward-looking statements 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 speak only as of the date on which it is made. Examples of forward-looking statements include statements we make regarding future attendance levels, revenues and our liquidity. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors, including those discussed in “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” which may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, the following:

•

the risks and uncertainties relating to the sufficiency of our existing cash and cash equivalents and available borrowing capacity to fund operations and satisfy obligations including cash outflows for planned capital expenditures currently and through the next twelve months. In order to achieve net positive cash flows from operating activities, revenues will need to increase from current levels to levels at least in line with pre-COVID-19 revenues. However, there remain significant risks that may negatively impact revenues and attendance levels, including changes to movie studios release schedules (including as a result of production delays and delays to the release of movies caused by labor stoppages) and direct to streaming or other changing movie studio practices. If we are unable to achieve increased levels of attendance and revenues, we will be required to obtain additional liquidity. If such additional liquidity is not obtained or is insufficient, we likely would seek an in-court or out-of-court restructuring of our liabilities, and in the event of such future liquidation or bankruptcy proceeding, holders of our common stock and other securities would likely suffer a total loss of their investment;

​

•

the risks and uncertainties relating to the Transaction Support Agreement, entered into on July 1, 2025 by the Company and Muvico, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, providing for a series of refinancing transactions (the “2025 Refinancing Transactions”) and a series of refinancing transactions with two creditor groups to refinance and extend to 2029 and 2030 the maturities of the Company’s debt previously maturing in 2026, completed in the third quarter of 2024 (the “2024 Refinancing Transactions”), including, but not limited to, (i) the potential for additional future dilution of our common stock as a result of issuance of shares underlying our 6.00%/8.00% Cash/PIK Toggle Senior Secured Exchangeable Notes due 2030 (the “Existing Exchangeable Notes”) or our Senior Secured Exchangeable Notes due 2030 (the “New Exchangeable Notes”), (ii) the possibility that the extension of certain debt maturities will not provide enough time for attendance and revenues to increase to sufficient levels and generate net positive cash flows from operating activities to overcome liquidity concerns or may be insufficient to do so if the Company does not achieve revenue levels at least in line with pre-COVID-19 revenues and (iii) the impact on the market price of our common stock and our capital structure of any litigation or claims of default that might arise in connection with the 2025 Refinancing Transactions or 2024 Refinancing Transactions;

​

•

changing practices of distributors, which accelerated during the COVID-19 pandemic, including increased use of alternative film delivery methods including premium video on demand, streaming platforms, shrinking exclusive theatrical release windows or release of movies to theatrical exhibition and streaming platforms on the same date, the theatrical release of fewer movies, or transitioning to other forms of entertainment;

​

•

the impact of changing movie-going behavior of consumers;

​

•

the risk that the North American and international box office in the near term will not recover sufficiently, resulting in continued cash burn and the need to seek additional financing, which may not be available at favorable terms, or at all;

​

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•

risks and uncertainties relating to our significant indebtedness, including our borrowings and our ability to meet our debt covenants;

​

•

the dilution caused by recent and potential future sales of our common stock and future potential share issuances to repay, refinance, redeem or repurchase indebtedness (including expenses, accrued interest and premium, if any);

​

risks relating to motion picture production, promotion, marketing, and performance, including labor stoppages affecting the production, supply and release schedule of theatrical motion picture content and the financial burden imposed by tariffs on motion picture production;

​

•

the seasonality of our revenue and working capital, which are dependent upon the timing of motion picture releases by distributors, such releases being seasonal and resulting in higher attendance and revenues generally during the summer months and holiday seasons, and higher working capital requirements during the other periods such as the first quarter;

​

•

intense competition in the geographic areas in which we operate among exhibitors, streaming platforms, or from other forms of entertainment;

​

•

certain covenants in the agreements that govern our indebtedness that limit or restrict our ability to take advantage of certain business opportunities, pay dividends, incur additional debt, pre-pay debt, and also to refinance debt and to do so at favorable terms, and such covenants that impose additional administrative and operational burdens on our business;

​

•

risks relating to impairment losses, including with respect to goodwill and other intangibles, and theatre and other closure charges;

​

•

general and international economic, political, regulatory, social and financial market conditions, including potential economic recession, inflation, rising interest rates, the financial stability of the banking industry, and other risks that may negatively impact discretionary income and our revenues and attendance levels;

​

•

our lack of control over distributors of films;

​

•

limitations on the availability of capital or poor financial results may prevent us from deploying strategic initiatives;

​

•

an issuance of preferred stock could dilute the voting power of the common stockholders and adversely affect the market value of our outstanding common stock;

​

•

limitations on the authorized number of shares of common stock could in the future prevent us from raising additional capital through common stock;

​

•

our ability to achieve expected synergies, benefits and performance from our strategic initiatives;

​

our ability to refinance our indebtedness on terms favorable to us or at all;

​

•

our ability to optimize our theatre circuit through new construction, the transformation of our existing theatres, and strategically closing underperforming theatres may be subject to delay and unanticipated costs;

​

•

failures, unavailability or security breaches of our information systems, including due to cybersecurity incidents;

​

•

our ability to utilize interest expense deductions will be limited annually due to Section 163(j) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), as amended by the One Big Beautiful Bill Act of 2025;

​

•

our ability to recognize interest deduction carryforwards, net operating loss carryforwards and other tax attributes to reduce our future tax liability;

​

•

our ability to recognize certain international deferred tax assets which currently do not have a valuation allowance recorded;

​

•

review by antitrust authorities in connection with acquisition opportunities;

​

5

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•

risks relating to the incurrence of legal liability;

​

•

dependence on key personnel for current and future performance and our ability to attract and retain senior executives and other key personnel, including in connection with any future acquisitions;

​

•

increased costs in order to comply or resulting from a failure to comply with governmental regulation, including the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) and all other current and pending privacy and data regulations in the jurisdictions where we have operations;

​

•

supply chain disruptions may negatively impact our operating results;

​

•

the availability and/or cost of energy, particularly in Europe;

​

•

the market price and trading volume of our shares of common stock has been and may continue to be volatile, and purchasers of our securities could incur substantial losses;

​

•

future offerings of debt, which would be senior to our common stock for purposes of distributions or upon liquidation, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock;

​

•

the potential for political, social, or economic unrest, terrorism, hostilities, cyber-attacks or war, including the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and other international conflicts;

​

•

the potential impact of financial and economic sanctions on the regional and global economy, or widespread health emergencies, such as pandemics or epidemics, causing people to avoid our theatres or other public places where large crowds are in attendance;

​

•

anti-takeover protections in our Fourth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “certificate of incorporation”) and our amended and restated bylaws (the “bylaws”) may discourage or prevent a takeover of our Company, even if an acquisition would be beneficial to our stockholders; and

​

•

other risks and uncertainties referenced from time to time in filings with the SEC.

​

This list of factors that may affect future performance and the accuracy of forward-looking statements is illustrative but not exhaustive. In addition, new risks and uncertainties may arise from time to time. Accordingly, all forward-looking statements should be evaluated with an understanding of their inherent uncertainty and we caution accordingly against relying on forward-looking statements.

Consider these factors carefully in evaluating the forward-looking statements. For further information about these and other risks and uncertainties as well as strategic initiatives, see “Risk Factors” in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and subsequent reports filed by us with the SEC, including on Form 8-K.

All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to us or persons acting on our behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. The forward-looking statements included herein are made only as of the date hereof, and we do not undertake any obligation to release publicly any revisions to such forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

TABLE OF CONTENTS​

THE COMPANY

We are the world’s largest theatrical exhibition company and an industry leader in innovation and operational excellence. Over the course of our 100+ year history, we have pioneered many of the theatrical exhibition industry’s most important innovations. We introduced multiplex theatres in the 1960s and the North American stadium-seated Megaplex theatre format in the 1990s. Most recently, we continued to innovate and evolve the movie-going experience with the deployment of our theatre renovations featuring plush, powered recliner seating and the launch of our U.S. subscription loyalty tier, AMC Stubs® A-List. Our growth has been driven by a combination of organic growth through reinvestment in our existing assets and through the acquisition of some of the most respected companies in the theatrical exhibition industry.

We were incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware on June 6, 2007. We maintain our principal executive offices at One AMC Way, 11500 Ash Street, Leawood, Kansas 66211 and our telephone number is (913) 213-2000. Our corporate website address is www.amctheatres.com. Our website and the information contained on, or that can be accessed through, the website is not incorporated by reference in, and is not part of, this prospectus. You should not rely on any such information in making your decision whether to purchase our securities.

TABLE OF CONTENTS​

TABLE OF CONTENTS​

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

The following description of our capital stock is summarized from and qualified in its entirety by reference to Delaware law, our amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “certificate of incorporation”) and our amended and restated bylaws (the “bylaws”), each of which has been publicly filed with the SEC. See the section entitled “Where You Can Find More Information; Incorporation of Documents by Reference”.

Our authorized capital stock consists of 1,100,000,000 shares of common stock and 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share. As of February 6, 2026, there were 513,886,461 shares of common stock outstanding and no shares of preferred stock outstanding. Our common stock is listed on the NYSE under the symbol “AMC.” The transfer agent and registrar for our common stock is Computershare Trust Company, N.A.

Voting Rights

Holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share. Our directors are elected by all of the common stockholders voting together as a single class.

Generally, all matters to be voted on by stockholders must be approved by a majority (or, in the case of election of directors, by a plurality) of our outstanding voting power. Except as otherwise required by the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), our certificate of incorporation or voting rights granted to any subsequently issued preferred stock, the holders of outstanding shares of our common stock and our preferred stock entitled to vote thereon, if any, vote as one class with respect to all matters to be voted on by our stockholders. Under the DGCL, amendments to our certificate of incorporation that would alter or change the powers, preferences or special rights of the common stock so as to affect them adversely also must be approved by a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of the shares affected by the amendment, voting as a separate class.

Conversion

The common stock is not convertible into any other shares of our capital stock.

No class of common stock may be subdivided or combined unless the other class of common stock concurrently is subdivided or combined in the same proportion and in the same manner.

Dividends

Holders of common stock share ratably (based on the number of shares of common stock held) in any dividend declared by the AMC Board, subject to any preferential rights of any outstanding preferred stock.

Other Rights

Upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up, after payment in full of the amounts required to be paid to holders of preferred stock, if any, all holders of common stock, regardless of class, will be entitled to share ratably in any assets available for distribution to holders of shares of common stock. No shares of any class of common stock are subject to redemption or have preemptive rights to purchase additional shares of common stock.

Preferred Stock

AMC’s certificate of incorporation authorizes the AMC Board to issue from time to time up to an aggregate of 50,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series without further stockholder approval. The AMC Board is authorized, without further stockholder approval, to establish one or more series of preferred stock and to determine, with respect to each such series, the designations, preferences, rights and any qualifications, limitations or restrictions of the shares of each such series thereof, including the dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption (including sinking fund provisions), redemption price or prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any series or designations of such series. The issuance of our preferred stock could have the effect of decreasing

10

TABLE OF CONTENTS

the trading price of our common stock, restricting dividends on our capital stock, diluting the voting power of our common stock, impairing the liquidation rights of our capital stock, or delaying or preventing a change in control of our Company.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Certain Provisions of Delaware Law, the Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws

Certain provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws may be considered to have an anti-takeover effect and may delay or prevent a tender offer or other corporate transaction that a stockholder might consider to be in its best interest, including those transactions that might result in payment of a premium over the market price for our shares. These provisions are designed to discourage certain types of transactions that may involve an actual or threatened change of control of AMC without prior approval of the AMC Board. These provisions are meant to encourage persons interested in acquiring control of AMC to first consult with the AMC Board to negotiate terms of a potential business combination or offer. For example, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws:

•

provide for a classified board of directors, pursuant to which the AMC Board is divided into three classes whose members serve three-year staggered terms;

​

•

provide that the size of the AMC Board will be set by members of the AMC Board, and any vacancy on the AMC Board, including a vacancy resulting from an enlargement of the AMC Board, may be filled only by vote of a majority of the directors then in office;

​

•

do not permit stockholders to take action by written consent;

​

•

provide that, except as otherwise required by law, special meetings of stockholders can only be called by the AMC Board;

​

•

establish an advance notice procedure for stockholder proposals to be brought before an annual meeting of stockholders, including proposed nominations of candidates for election to the AMC Board;

​

•

limit consideration by stockholders at annual meetings to only those proposals or nominations specified in the notice of meeting or brought before the meeting by or at the direction of the AMC Board or by a stockholder of record on the record date for the meeting who is entitled to vote at the meeting and who has delivered timely written notice in proper form to our secretary of the stockholder’s intention to bring such business before the meeting;

​

•

authorize the issuance of “blank check” preferred stock that could be issued by the AMC Board to increase the number of outstanding shares or establish a stockholders rights plan making a takeover more difficult and expensive; and

​

•

do not permit cumulative voting in the election of directors, which would otherwise allow less than a majority of stockholders to elect director candidates.

​

The certificate of incorporation expressly states that we have elected not to be governed by Section 203 of the DGCL, which prohibits a publicly held Delaware corporation from engaging in a “business combination” with an “interested stockholder” for a period of three years after the time the stockholder became an interested stockholder, subject to certain exceptions, including if, prior to such time, the board of such corporation approved the business combination or the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder. “Business combinations” include mergers, asset sales and other transactions resulting in a financial benefit to the “interested stockholder.” Subject to various exceptions, an “interested stockholder” is a person who, together with his or her affiliates and associates, owns, or within three years did own, 15% or more of the corporation’s outstanding voting stock. These restrictions generally prohibit or delay the accomplishment of mergers or other takeover or change-in-control attempts that are not approved by a company’s board. Although we have elected to opt out of the statute’s provisions, we could elect to be subject to Section 203 in the future.

The bylaws state that unless AMC consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware shall be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of AMC, (ii) any action asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by any director, officer or other employee of AMC to AMC or AMC’s stockholders, (iii) any action

11

TABLE OF CONTENTS

asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of the DGCL or the certificate of incorporation or bylaws, or (iv) any action asserting a claim against AMC governed by the internal affairs doctrine; provided, however, that this provision of the bylaws does not apply to any actions arising under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.

Special Meeting of Stockholders

Special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by a majority of our directors.

No Actions by Written Consent

Stockholder action can be taken only at an annual or special meeting of stockholders.

Advance Notice Requirements for Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations

The bylaws provide that stockholders seeking to bring business before an annual meeting of stockholders, or to nominate candidates for election as directors at an annual meeting of stockholders, must provide timely notice thereof in writing. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice generally must be delivered to and received at our principal executive offices, not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting; provided, that in the event that the date of such meeting is advanced more than 30 days prior to, or delayed by more than 70 days after, the anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting of our stockholders, a stockholder’s notice to be timely must be so delivered not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to such meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to such meeting or the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made. The bylaws also specify certain requirements as to the form and content of a stockholder’s notice. These provisions may preclude stockholders from bringing matters before an annual meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors at an annual meeting of stockholders.

Authorized but Unissued Shares

The authorized but unissued shares of common stock and preferred stock are available for future issuance without stockholder approval. These additional shares may be used for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings to raise additional capital, corporate acquisitions and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued shares of common stock and preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of AMC by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger or otherwise.

Amendments to Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws

The certificate of incorporation provides that the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares entitled to vote on any matter is required to amend the certificate of incorporation. In addition, under the DGCL, an amendment to the certificate of incorporation that would alter or change the powers, preferences or special rights of the common stock so as to affect them adversely also must be approved by a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by the holders of the shares affected by the amendment, voting as a separate class. Subject to the bylaws, the AMC Board may from time to time make, amend, supplement or repeal the bylaws by vote of a majority of the AMC Board.

Limitation of Liability and Indemnification of Directors and Officers

As permitted by the DGCL, we have adopted provisions in the certificate of incorporation that limit or eliminate the personal liability of our directors and officers for monetary damages for a breach of their fiduciary duty of care as a director or officer. The duty of care generally requires that, when acting on behalf of the corporation, directors and officers exercise an informed business judgment based on all material information reasonably available to them. Consequently, a director or officer will not be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, except for liability for:

12

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•

any breach of the person’s duty of loyalty to us or our stockholders;

​

•

any act or omission not in good faith or that involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

​

•

any act related to unlawful stock repurchases, redemptions or other distributions or payment of dividends; or

​

•

any transaction from which the person derived an improper personal benefit.

​

These limitations of liability do not generally affect the availability of equitable remedies such as injunctive relief or rescission.

As permitted by the DGCL, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws provide that:

•

we will indemnify our current and former directors and officers and anyone who is or was serving at our request as the director or officer of, or legal representative in, another entity, and may indemnify our current or former employees and other agents, to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, subject to limited exceptions; and

​

•

we may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of our current or former directors, officers, employees or agents against any liability asserted against them and incurred by them in any such capacity, or arising out of their status as such.

​

We currently maintain liability insurance for our directors and officers.

The certificate of incorporation requires us to advance expenses to our directors and officers in connection with a legal proceeding, subject to receiving an undertaking from such director or officer to repay advanced amounts if it is determined he or she is not entitled to indemnification. The bylaws provide that we may advance expenses to our employees and other agents, upon such terms and conditions, if any, as we deem appropriate.
