AMC Entertainment Holdings said it has priced a registered direct offering of 95.25 million shares of common stock that is expected to raise about $200 million in gross proceeds.
The company said it plans to use the net proceeds to redeem all $125.5 million of its 6.125% senior subordinated notes due 2027, along with related fees, costs, premiums and expenses. Any remaining proceeds may go toward other debt repayment, cash reserves and investments tied to the theater experience.
The financing comes as AMC continues to operate roughly 850 theaters and 9,600 screens worldwide. The company did not disclose any change in theater count or screen count in the announcement, but the new equity raise is sized at nearly 1.6 times the principal amount of the notes it plans to retire.
The offering is scheduled to close on June 24, 2026. Following these announcements, the company's shares moved -22.64%, and are now trading at a price of $2.135. For the full picture, make sure to review AMC ENTERTAINMENT HOLDINGS, INC.'s 8-K report.
