Cinemark generated $396.1 million of operating cash flow and $177.2 million of free cash flow, returned $315 million to shareholders, invested $218.9 million in capital expenditures, extinguished remaining COVID‑related debt, and declared a quarterly dividend of $0.09 per share.

Positive

• Record post‑pandemic revenue and concessions: 2025 revenue reached $3.115 billion, the company’s highest since the pandemic, with record concession revenue of $1.2 billion and strong premium format and non‑traditional content proceeds supporting the top line.
• Balance sheet and shareholder returns: Long‑term debt fell from $2.3347 billion to $1.8756 billion, remaining COVID‑related debt was extinguished, and the company returned $315 million to shareholders while funding $218.9 million of capital expenditures.

Negative

• Sharp earnings and cash decline: Net income attributable to Cinemark dropped from $309.7 million in 2024 to $138.2 million in 2025, Adjusted EBITDA eased to $577.9 million, and cash and equivalents fell from $1.0573 billion to $344.3 million amid heavy capital deployment.

Insights

Equity research analyst

Revenue reached a post‑pandemic high in 2025, but earnings and cash declined meaningfully.

Cinemark delivered full‑year revenue of $3.115 billion, its highest since the pandemic, with record concession revenue of $1.2 billion and strong premium format and non‑traditional content performance. Attendance of 193 million supports the narrative that core moviegoing demand remains resilient.

However, net income attributable to Cinemark fell to $138.2 million from $309.7 million, and Adjusted EBITDA slipped to $577.9 million from $590.2 million. Q4 also softened, with revenue down 4.7% to $776.3 million and Adjusted EBITDA at $131.7 million versus $156.9 million. This indicates margins compressed even as top‑line ticked higher.

Cinemark used cash aggressively: cash and equivalents dropped to $344.3 million from $1.0573 billion, while long‑term debt declined to $1.8756 billion from $2.3347 billion. The company returned $315 million to shareholders and invested $218.9 million in capital expenditures, and declared a $0.09 per‑share quarterly dividend payable on March 17, 2026. Future filings will clarify whether earnings recovery keeps pace with this more shareholder‑friendly capital allocation.

(1) Constant currency amounts, which are non-GAAP measurements, were calculated using the average exchange rate for the corresponding month for 2024. We translate the results of our international reportable segment from local currencies into U.S. dollars using currency rates in effect at different points in time in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Significant changes in foreign currency exchange rates from one period to the next can result in meaningful variations in reported results. We are providing constant currency amounts for our international reportable segment to present a period-to-period comparison of business performance that excludes the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

(1)Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before income taxes, depreciation and amortization expense and other items, as calculated below. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure commonly used in our industry and should not be construed as an alternative to income as an indicator of operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity (as determined in accordance with GAAP). Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. We have included Adjusted EBITDA because we believe it provides management and investors with additional information to measure our performance and liquidity, estimate our value and evaluate our ability to service debt. In addition, we use Adjusted EBITDA for incentive compensation purposes. A reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA is provided below.
