Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain matters within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q include “forward–looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The “forward-looking statements” may include our current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections about our business and our industry. They may include statements relating to future revenues, expenses and profitability, the future development and expected growth of our business, projected capital expenditures, attendance at movies generally or in any of the markets in which we operate, the number or diversity of popular movies released and our ability to successfully license and exhibit popular films, national and international growth in our industry, competition from other exhibitors and alternative forms of entertainment and determinations in lawsuits in which we are defendants. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “should,” “could,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” “anticipates,” “believes,” “plans,” “expects,” “future” and “intends” and similar expressions. Forward-looking statements may involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause the actual results or performance to differ from those projected in the forward-looking statements. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond our control and difficult to predict and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or forecasted in the forward-looking statements. For a description of the risk factors, please review the “Risk Factors” section or other sections in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 filed February 28, 2014 and quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. All forward-looking statements are expressly qualified in their entirety by such risk factors. We undertake no obligation, other than as required by law, to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

1. The Company and Basis of Presentation

Cinemark Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) is a leader in the motion picture exhibition industry, with theatres in the United States (“U.S.”), Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Guatemala and Bolivia. The Company also managed additional theatres in the U.S., Brazil, and Colombia during the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013, which was derived from audited financial statements, and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Majority-owned subsidiaries that the Company has control of are consolidated while those affiliates of which the Company owns between 20% and 50% and does not control are accounted for under the equity method. Those affiliates of which the Company owns less than 20% are generally accounted for under the cost method, unless the Company is deemed to have the ability to exercise significant influence over the affiliate, in which case the Company would account for its investment under the equity method. The results of these subsidiaries and affiliates are included in the condensed consolidated financial statements effective with their formation or from their dates of acquisition. Intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.

These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited annual consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2013, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed February 28, 2014 by the Company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved for the full year.

2. New Accounting Pronouncements

In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity (“ASU 2014-08”). The update changes the criteria for reporting discontinued operations and enhances convergence of the FASB’s and International Accounting Standard Board’s reporting requirements for discontinued operations. ASU 2014-08 is effective for a) all disposals or classifications as held for sale of components of an entity that occur within annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014 and interim periods within those years and b) all businesses or nonprofit activities that, on acquisition, are classified as held for sale that occur within the annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted, but only for disposals or classifications as held for sale that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued or available for issuance. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-08 to have a significant impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASU 2014-09”). The update clarifies the principles for recognizing revenue and creates a common revenue standard for U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2014-09 affects any entity that either enters into contracts with customers to transfer goods or services or enters into contracts for the transfer of nonfinancial assets unless those contracts are within the scope of other standards (for example, insurance contracts or lease contracts). The amendments in ASU 2014-09 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those years. Early application is not permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2014-09 on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In June 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-12, Accounting for Share-Based Payments When the Terms of an Award Provide That a Performance Target Could Be Achieved after the Requisite Service Period (“ASU 2014-12”). The update requires that a performance target that affects vesting and could be achieved after the

CINEMARK HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In thousands, except share and per share data

requisite service period be treated as a performance condition. A reporting entity should apply guidance in Topic 718 as it relates to awards with performance conditions that affect vesting to account for such awards. The amendments in ASU 2014-12 are effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those years. Early application is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-12 to have any impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

In August 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-15, Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (“ASU 2014-15”). The update provides guidance about management’s responsibility to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about an entity’s ability to continue as a going concern and to provide related footnote disclosures. The amendments in ASU 2014-15 are effective for annual reporting periods ending after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within those years. Early application is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-15 to have a significant impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

3. Earnings Per Share

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

The following table presents computations of basic and diluted earnings per share under the two-class method:

⁽¹⁾

For the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, a weighted average of approximately 888 and 1,272 shares of unvested restricted stock, respectively, were considered participating securities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, a weighted average of approximately 801 and 1,191 shares of unvested restricted stock, respectively, were considered participating securities.

Proceeds, after payment of fees, were used to finance a redemption of $470,000 of 8.625% senior notes due 2019 (the “8.625% Senior Notes”).

7. Investment in National CineMedia

The Company has an investment in National CineMedia, LLC (“NCM”). NCM operates a digital in-theatre network in the U.S. for providing cinema advertising and non-film events. Upon joining NCM, the Company entered into an Exhibitor Services Agreement with NCM (“ESA”), pursuant to which NCM provides advertising, promotion and event services to our theatres. As described further in Note 6 to the Company’s financial statements as included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, on February 13, 2007, National CineMedia, Inc. (“NCM, Inc.”), an entity that serves as the sole manager of NCM, completed an initial public offering (“IPO”) of its common stock. In connection with the NCM Inc. IPO, the Company amended its operating agreement and the ESA. Following the NCM, Inc. IPO, the Company does not recognize undistributed equity in the earnings on its original NCM membership units (referred to herein as the Company’s Tranche 1 Investment) until NCM’s future net earnings, less distributions received, surpass the amount of the excess distribution. The Company recognizes equity in earnings on its Tranche 1 Investment only to the extent it receives cash distributions from NCM. The Company recognizes cash distributions it receives from NCM on its Tranche 1 Investment as a component of earnings as Distributions from NCM. The Company believes that the accounting model provided by ASC Topic 323-10-35-22 for recognition of equity investee losses in excess of an investor’s basis is analogous to the accounting for equity income subsequent to recognizing an excess distribution.

⁽¹⁾	Amount includes the per patron and per digital screen theatre access fees due to the Company, net of amounts due to NCM for on-screen advertising time provided to the Company’s beverage concessionaire of approximately $8,478.

During the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded equity in earnings of approximately $5,389 and $7,122, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded equity in earnings of approximately $5,746 and $8,524, respectively.

Pursuant to a Common Unit Adjustment Agreement dated as of February 13, 2007 between NCM, Inc. and the Company, AMC Entertainment, Inc. (“AMC”) and Regal Entertainment Group (“Regal”), annual adjustments to the common membership units are made primarily based on increases or decreases in the number of theatre screens operated and theatre attendance generated by each Founding Member. As further discussed in Note 6 to the Company’s financial statements as included in its 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K, the common units received are recorded at fair value as an increase in the Company’s investment in NCM with an offset to deferred revenue. The deferred revenue is amortized over the remaining term of the ESA. During March 2014, NCM performed its annual common unit adjustment calculation under the Common Unit Adjustment Agreement. As a result of the calculation, the Company received an additional 557,631 common units of NCM, each of which is convertible into one share of NCM, Inc. common stock. The Company recorded the additional common units received at fair value with a corresponding adjustment to deferred revenue of approximately $8,216. The deferred revenue will be recognized over the remaining term of the ESA, which is approximately 22 years.

As of September 30, 2014, the Company owned 24,556,136 common units of NCM, representing an ownership interest of approximately 19%.

On May 5, 2014, NCM, Inc., the sole manager of NCM, announced that it had entered into an agreement to acquire Screenvision, LLC for approximately $375,000, consisting of cash and NCM, Inc. common stock. The transaction is subject to regulatory approval and other customary closing conditions. If NCM, Inc. does not receive this approval or if the closing conditions in the agreement cannot be satisfied, in certain circumstances NCM, Inc. may be required to pay a termination fee of approximately $28,800. On November 3, 2014, the Department of Justice filed an antitrust lawsuit seeking to stop the planned transaction.

8. Investment in Digital Cinema Implementation Partners

On February 12, 2007, the Company, AMC and Regal entered into a joint venture known as Digital Cinema Implementation Partners LLC (“DCIP”) to facilitate the implementation of digital cinema in the Company’s theatres and to establish agreements with major motion picture studios for the financing of digital cinema. On March 10, 2010, the Company signed a master equipment lease agreement and other related agreements (collectively the “agreements”) with Kasima LLC (“Kasima”), which is an indirect subsidiary of DCIP and a related party to the Company. As of September 30, 2014, the Company had a 33% voting interest in DCIP and a 24.3% economic interest in DCIP.

The Company has a variable interest in Kasima through the terms of its master equipment lease agreement; however, the Company has determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of Kasima, as the Company does not have the ability to direct the activities of Kasima that most significantly impact Kasima’s economic performance. The Company accounts for its investment in DCIP and its subsidiaries under the equity method of accounting. During the three months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded equity in earnings of approximately $4,791 and $4,613, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded equity in earnings of $10,969 and $7,315, respectively.

Cash contributions		1,925
Equity in income		10,969
Equity in other comprehensive loss		194

Balance as of September 30, 2014	$	51,121

The digital projection systems that are leased from Kasima are under an operating lease with an initial term of twelve years that contains ten one-year fair value renewal options. The equipment lease agreement also contains a fair value purchase option. Under the equipment lease agreement, which was amended effective March 31, 2014, the Company pays minimum annual rent of one thousand dollars per digital projection system. The Company is also subject to various types of other rent if such digital projection systems do not meet minimum performance requirements as outlined in the agreements. Certain of the other rent payments are subject to either a monthly or an annual maximum. As of September 30, 2014, the Company had 3,666 digital projection systems being leased under the master equipment lease agreement with Kasima. The Company paid equipment lease expense of approximately $3,005 and $2,848 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, which is included in utilities and other costs on the condensed consolidated statements of income.

⁽¹⁾	The Company withheld shares as a result of such election by certain employees to satisfy their tax liabilities upon vesting in restricted stock and restricted stock units.

As of September 30, 2014, the Company had no plans to retire any shares of treasury stock.

Stock Options – During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, 14,584 stock options were exercised at a weighted average exercise price of $7.63 and a total intrinsic value of $296.

The recipients of restricted stock are entitled to receive dividends and to vote their respective shares, however, the sale and transfer of the restricted shares is prohibited during the restriction period.

Below is a summary of restricted stock activity for the nine months ended September 30, 2014:


	Shares of			Weighted Average
	Restricted			Grant Date
	Stock			Fair Value
Outstanding at January 1, 2014		1,260,913		$	21.85

The Company recorded compensation expense of $7,264 and $7,823 related to restricted stock awards during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. As of September 30, 2014, the remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to restricted stock awards was $14,589 and the weighted average period over which this remaining compensation expense will be recognized is approximately two years.

Restricted Stock Units – During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, the Company granted restricted stock units representing 197,515 hypothetical shares of common stock to employees. The restricted stock units vest based on a combination of financial performance factors and continued service. The financial performance factors are based on an implied equity value concept that determines an internal rate of return (“IRR”) during the two fiscal year period ending December 31, 2015 based on a formula utilizing a multiple of Adjusted EBITDA subject to certain specified adjustments as defined in the restricted stock unit award agreement. The financial performance factors for the restricted stock units have a threshold, target and maximum level of payment opportunity. If the IRR for the two year period is at least 8.5%, which is the threshold, one-third of the restricted stock units vest. If the IRR for the two year period is at least 10.5%, which is the target, two-thirds of the restricted stock units vest. If the IRR for the two year period is at least 12.5%, which is the maximum, 100% of the restricted stock units vest. Grantees are eligible to receive a ratable portion of the common stock issuable if the IRR is within the targets previously noted. All payouts of restricted stock units that vest will be subject to an additional two year service requirement and will be paid in the form of common stock if the participant continues to provide services through March 2018, which is the fourth anniversary of the grant date. Restricted stock unit award participants are eligible to receive dividend equivalent payments if and at the time the restricted stock unit awards vest.

Below is a table summarizing the potential number of shares that could vest under restricted stock unit awards granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 at each of the three target levels of financial performance (excluding forfeiture assumptions):


	Number of
	Shares		Value at
	Vesting		Grant
at IRR of at least 8.5%		65,832	$	1,879
at IRR of at least 10.5%		131,683	$	3,758
at IRR of at least 12.5%		197,515	$	5,637

Due to the fact that the IRR for the two year performance period could not be determined at the time of grant, the Company estimated that the most likely outcome is the achievement of the mid-point IRR level. The fair value of the restricted stock unit awards was determined based on the market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, which was $28.54 per share. The Company assumed forfeiture rates ranging from 0% to 5% for the restricted stock unit awards. If during the service period, additional information becomes available to lead the Company to believe a different IRR level will be achieved for the two-year performance period, the Company will reassess the number of units that will vest for the grant and adjust its compensation expense accordingly on a prospective basis over the remaining service period.

The Company recorded compensation expense of $2,300 and $2,523 related to restricted stock unit awards during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, 392,238 restricted stock unit awards vested. Upon vesting, each restricted stock unit was converted into one share of the Company’s common stock. In addition, the Company paid approximately $1,341 in dividends on the vested restricted stock units, which represented dividends that had accumulated on the awards since they were granted. The fair value of the restricted stock unit awards that vested during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was approximately $11,312. The Company recognized a tax benefit of approximately $4,751 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 related to these vested awards.

As of September 30, 2014, the remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to the outstanding restricted stock unit awards was $5,383. The weighted average period over which this remaining compensation expense will be recognized is approximately two years. As of September 30, 2014, the Company had restricted stock units outstanding that represented a total of 577,097 hypothetical shares of common stock, assuming the maximum IRR level is achieved for each of the grants.

11. Interest Rate Swap Agreements

The Company is currently a party to three interest rate swap agreements that are used to hedge interest rate risk associated with the variable interest rates on the Company’s term loan debt and qualify for cash flow hedge accounting. The fair values of the interest rate swaps are recorded on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as an asset or liability with the effective portion of the interest rate swaps’ gains or losses reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss and the ineffective portion reported in earnings. The changes in fair values are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss into earnings in the same period that the hedged items affect earnings.

The valuation technique used to determine fair value is the income approach and under this approach, the Company uses projected future interest rates as provided by counterparties to the interest rate swap agreements and the fixed rates that the Company is obligated to pay under these agreements. Therefore, the Company’s measurements use significant unobservable inputs, which fall in Level 3 of the U.S. GAAP hierarchy as defined by FASB ASC Topic 820-10-35. There were no changes in valuation techniques during the period and no transfers in or out of Level 3.

Below is a summary of the Company’s current interest rate swap agreements designated as cash flow hedges as of September 30, 2014:

12. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The Company’s goodwill was as follows:


	U.S. Operating Segment		International Operating Segment			Total
Balance at January 1, 2014 ⁽¹⁾	$	1,150,471	$	137,619		$	1,288,090

Balance at September 30, 2014 ⁽¹⁾	$	1,150,471	$	126,863		$	1,277,334

⁽¹⁾	Balances are presented net of accumulated impairment losses of $214,031 for the U.S. operating segment and $27,622 for the international operating segment.

The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment on an annual basis during the fourth quarter or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill might exceed its estimated fair value. The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level and has allocated goodwill to the reporting unit based on an estimate of its relative fair value. The Company considers the reporting unit to be each of its eighteen regions in the U.S. and each of its eight countries internationally (Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama and Guatemala are considered one reporting unit). Goodwill impairment is evaluated using a two-step approach requiring the Company to compute the fair value of a reporting unit and compare it with its carrying value. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds the estimated fair value, a second step is performed to measure the potential goodwill impairment. Significant judgment is involved in estimating cash flows and fair value. Management’s estimates, which fall under Level 3 of the U.S. GAAP fair value hierarchy as defined by FASB ASC Topic 820-10-35, are based on historical and projected operating performance, recent market transactions and current industry trading multiples. Fair value is determined based on a multiple of cash flows, which was eight times for the evaluation performed during the fourth quarter of 2013.

No events or changes in circumstances occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 that indicated the carrying value of goodwill might exceed its estimated fair value.

Intangible assets consisted of the following:

13. Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment indicators on a quarterly basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable.

The Company considers actual theatre level cash flows, budgeted theatre level cash flows, theatre property and equipment carrying values, amortizing intangible asset carrying values, the age of a recently built theatre, competitive theatres in the marketplace, the impact of recent ticket price changes, available lease renewal options and other factors considered relevant in its assessment of impairment of individual theatre assets. Long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment on an individual theatre basis, which the Company believes is the lowest applicable level for which there are identifiable cash flows. The impairment evaluation is based on the estimated undiscounted cash flows from continuing use through the remainder of the theatre’s useful life. The remainder of the useful life correlates with the available remaining lease period, which includes the probability of renewal periods for leased properties and a period of approximately twenty years for fee owned properties. If the estimated undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to recover a long-lived asset’s carrying value, the Company then compares the carrying value of the asset group (theatre) with its estimated fair value. When estimated fair value is determined to be lower than the carrying value of the asset group (theatre), the asset group (theatre) is written down to its estimated fair value. Significant judgment is involved in estimating cash flows and fair value. Management’s estimates, which fall under Level 3 of the U.S. GAAP fair value hierarchy as defined by FASB ASC Topic 820-10-35, are based on historical and projected operating performance, recent market transactions and current industry trading multiples. Fair value is determined based on a multiple of cash flows, which was six and a half times for the evaluations performed during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013. As of September 30, 2014, the estimated aggregate fair value of the long-lived assets impaired during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 was approximately $4,297.

The long-lived asset impairment charges recorded during each of the periods presented are specific to theatres that were directly and individually impacted by increased competition, adverse changes in market demographics or adverse changes in the development or the conditions of the areas surrounding the theatre.

14. Fair Value Measurements

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

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

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

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

Below is a summary of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis by the Company under FASB ASC Topic 820 as of September 30, 2014:


	Carrying			Fair Value
Description	Value			Level 1		Level 2		Level 3
Interest rate swap liabilities – current (see Note 11)	$	(5,318	)	$	—	$	—	$	(5,318	)

The Company also uses the income approach for fair value measurements on a nonrecurring basis in the impairment evaluations of its long-lived assets (see Note 12 and Note 13). Additionally, the Company uses the market approach to estimate the fair value of its long-term debt for disclosure purposes (see Note 4). There were no changes in valuation techniques during the period.

The Company conducts a review of fair value hierarchy classifications when estimating fair values on a quarterly basis. There were no transfers in or out of Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 during the nine months ended September 30, 2014.

15. Foreign Currency Translation

The accumulated other comprehensive loss account in stockholders’ equity of $117,384 and $81,819 at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, includes cumulative foreign currency adjustments of $118,065 and $78,947, respectively, from translating the financial statements of the Company’s international subsidiaries, and also includes the change in fair values of the Company’s interest rate swap agreements that are designated as hedges and the change in fair value of the Company’s available-for-sale securities.

All foreign countries where the Company has operations are non-highly inflationary and the local currency is the same as the functional currency in all of the locations. Thus, any fluctuation in the currency results in a cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment recorded to accumulated other comprehensive loss.

Below is a summary of the impact of translating the September 30, 2014 financial statements of certain of the Company’s international subsidiaries:

17. Segments

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

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

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

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes and schedules included elsewhere in this report.

We are a leader in the motion picture exhibition industry, with theatres in the U.S., Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Guatemala, and Bolivia. As of September 30, 2014, we managed our business under two reportable operating segments – U.S. markets and international markets. See Note 17 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

We generate revenues primarily from box office receipts and concession sales with additional revenues from screen advertising sales and other revenue streams, such as vendor marketing promotions, meeting rentals and electronic video games located in some of our theatres. Our contracts with NCM have assisted us in expanding our offerings to domestic advertisers and broadening ancillary revenue sources such as digital video monitor advertising and third party branding. Historically, we have also offered alternative entertainment, such as live and pre-recorded sports programs, concert events, the MET opera and other special presentations in our theatres through our relationship with NCM. We are continuing to offer this entertainment through our recently formed joint venture, AC JV, LLC. Our Flix Media initiative has allowed us to expand our screen advertising within our international circuit and to other international exhibitors. Films leading the box office during the nine months ended September 30, 2014 included the carryover of Frozen as well as new releases Guardians of the Galaxy, Captain America: The Winter Soldier, The LEGO^® Movie, Transformers: Age of Extinction, Maleficent, X-Men: Days of Future Past, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Godzilla, 22 Jump Street, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, How to Train Your Dragon 2 and Divergent, among other films. Films currently scheduled for release during the remainder of 2014 include sequels such as Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part I, Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, Night at the Museum 3 and new films such as Into the Woods, Fury, Gone Girl, Big Hero 6, Exodus and Interstellar, among other films.

Film rental costs are variable in nature and fluctuate with our admissions revenues. Film rental costs as a percentage of revenues are generally higher for periods in which more blockbuster films are released. Film rental costs can also vary based on the length of a film’s run. Film rental rates are generally negotiated on a film-by-film and theatre-by-theatre basis. Advertising costs, which are expensed as incurred, are primarily fixed at the theatre level as daily movie directories placed in newspapers represent the largest component of advertising costs. The monthly cost of these advertisements is based on, among other things, the size of the directory and the frequency and size of the newspaper’s circulation.

Concession supplies expense is variable in nature and fluctuates with our concession revenues. We purchase concession supplies to replace units sold. We negotiate prices for concession supplies directly with concession vendors and manufacturers to obtain volume rates.

Although salaries and wages include a fixed cost component (i.e. the minimum staffing costs to operate a theatre facility during non-peak periods), salaries and wages move in relation to revenues as theatre staffing is adjusted to respond to changes in attendance. In some international locations, staffing levels are also subject to local regulations.

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

Utilities and other costs include certain costs that have both fixed and variable components such as utilities, property taxes, janitorial costs, repairs and maintenance and security services.

•

U.S. Admissions revenues decreased due to a 15.4% decline in attendance, partially offset by a 1.6% increase in average ticket price from $6.68 for the third quarter of 2013 to $6.79 for the third quarter of 2014. The decrease in concession revenues was attributable to the 15.4% decline in attendance, partially offset by a 7.4% increase in concession revenues per patron from $3.38 for the third quarter of 2013 to $3.63 for the third quarter of 2014. The decline in attendance was due to the weaker film slate during the third quarter of 2014 compared to the third quarter of 2013. The increase in average ticket price was primarily due to an increase in the mix of premium tickets sold. The increase in concession revenues per patron was primarily due to incremental sales and price increases. The decrease in other revenues was primarily attributable to the 15.4% decrease in attendance, which resulted in decreases in screen advertising, video game and other promotional revenues.

•

International. Admissions revenues decreased due to a 23.0% decline in attendance, partially offset by a 3.0% increase in average ticket price from $4.66 for the third quarter of 2013 to $4.80 for the third quarter of 2014. The decrease in concession revenues was attributable to the decline in attendance, partially offset by a 1.7% increase in concession revenues per patron from $2.34 for the third quarter of 2013 to $2.38 for the third quarter of 2014. The decline in attendance was due to the weaker film slate during the third quarter of 2014 compared to the third quarter of 2013. The third quarter of 2014 was also unfavorably impacted by the sale of our Mexico theatres during November 2013, the World Cup and the unfavorable impact of exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate. The increase in average ticket price was primarily due to local currency price increases and an increase in the mix of premium tickets sold partially offset by the unfavorable impact of exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate. The increase in concession revenues per patron was primarily due to incremental sales and local currency price increases partially offset by the unfavorable impact of exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate.

U.S. Film rentals and advertising costs were $161.1 million, or 55.5% of admissions revenues, for the third quarter of 2014 compared to $185.3 million, or 54.8% of admissions revenues, for the third quarter of 2013. The increase in the film rentals and advertising rate was primarily due to the mix of films released during the third quarter of 2014 compared to the third quarter of 2013 and increased advertising and promotion expenses and other film presentation costs. Concession supplies expense was $20.9 million, or 13.5% of concession revenues, for the third quarter of 2014 compared to $23.0 million, or 13.4% of concession revenues, for the third quarter of 2013.

Salaries and wages decreased to $49.3 million for the third quarter of 2014 from $53.0 million for the third quarter of 2013 primarily due to reduced staffing levels in response to the 15.4% decrease in attendance. Facility lease expense decreased to $58.4 million for the third quarter of 2014 from $58.5 million for the third quarter of 2013, which reflected an increase in base rent due to new theatre openings, offset by a decrease in percentage rent as a result of the revenue decline. Utilities and other costs decreased to $55.8 million for the third quarter of 2014 from $57.5 million for the third quarter of 2013 primarily due to a decrease in equipment lease expense for our digital projectors, which was driven by lease amendments that removed future increases in lease payments.

•

International. Film rentals and advertising costs were $54.4 million, or 48.4% of admissions revenues, for the third quarter of 2014 compared to $69.5 million, or 49.0% of admissions revenues, for the third quarter of 2013. Concession supplies expense was $12.6 million, or 22.6% of concession revenues, for the third quarter of 2014 compared to $16.0 million, or 22.5% of concession revenues, for the third quarter of 2013

Salaries and wages decreased to $18.6 million for the third quarter of 2014 from $20.2 million for the third quarter of 2013. Facility lease expense decreased to $22.2 million for the third quarter of 2014 from $26.6 million for the third quarter of 2013 primarily due to a decrease in percentage rent as a result of the decline in revenues. Utilities and other costs decreased to $23.7 million for the third quarter of 2014 from $27.2 million for the third quarter of 2013. All of the above-mentioned theatre operating costs were impacted by the sale of our Mexico theatres during November 2013 and changes in exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased to $35.8 million for the third quarter of 2014 from $42.4 million for the third quarter of 2013. The reduction was primarily due to decreased incentive compensation expense, decreased share based award compensation expense, decreased professional fees, the effect of changes in the exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate and the impact of the sale of our Mexico theatres in November 2013.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense was $44.7 million during the third quarter of 2014 compared to $42.4 million during the third quarter of 2013. The increase was primarily due to new theatres, partially offset by the sale of our Mexico theatres during November 2013.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. We recorded asset impairment charges on assets held and used of $4.5 million during the third quarter of 2014 compared to $0.2 million during the third quarter of 2013. The long-lived asset impairment charges recorded during each of the periods presented were specific to theatres that were directly and individually impacted by increased competition, adverse changes in market demographics or adverse changes in the development or the conditions of the areas surrounding the theatre. Impairment charges for the third quarter of 2014 consisted of U.S. theatre properties, impacting five of our twenty-six reporting units. See Note 13 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Loss on Sale of Assets and Other. We recorded a loss on sale of assets and other of $2.6 million during the third quarter of 2014 compared to $0.6 million during the third quarter of 2013. The loss recorded during the third quarter of 2014 was primarily due to the retirement of certain theatre equipment that was replaced during the period and lease termination charges recorded for theatre closures.

Interest Expense. Interest costs incurred, including amortization of debt issue costs, were $28.3 million during the third quarter of 2014 compared to $29.5 million during the third quarter of 2013.

Distributions from NCM. We recorded distributions from NCM of $3.5 million during the third quarter of 2014 compared to $5.6 million during the third quarter of 2013, which were in excess of the carrying value of our Tranche 1 investment. See Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Equity in Income of Affiliates. We recorded equity in income of affiliates of $10.3 million during the third quarter of 2014 compared to $11.7 million during the third quarter of 2013. The equity in income of affiliates recorded during the third quarter of 2014 primarily included income of approximately $4.8 million related to our equity investment in DCIP (see Note 8 to our condensed consolidated financial statements) and income of approximately $5.4 million related to our equity investment in NCM (see Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements). The equity in income of affiliates recorded during the third quarter of 2013 primarily included income of approximately $4.6 million related to our equity investment in DCIP and income of approximately $7.1 million related to our equity investment in NCM.

Income Taxes. Income tax expense of $25.5 million was recorded for the third quarter of 2014 compared to $43.4 million for the third quarter of 2013. The effective tax rate was approximately 39.9% for the third quarter of 2014 compared to 35.0% for the third quarter of 2013. Income tax provisions for interim (quarterly) periods are based on estimated annual income tax rates and are adjusted for the effects of significant, infrequent or unusual items (i.e. discrete items) occurring during the interim period. As a result, the interim rate may vary significantly from the normalized annual rate.

U.S. The decrease in admissions revenues of $0.5 million was attributable to a 1.7% decline in attendance offset by a 1.7% increase in average ticket price from $6.87 for the 2013 period to $6.99 for the 2014 period. The increase in concession revenues was attributable to a 5.8% increase in concession revenues per patron from $3.43 for the 2013 period to $3.63 for the 2014 period, partially offset by the 1.7% decline in attendance. The increase in average ticket price was primarily due to price increases and the pricing at the acquired Rave theatres. The increase in concession revenues per patron was primarily due to incremental sales and price increases. Our revenues and attendance for the 2014 period were also impacted by the inclusion of the 32 Rave theatres acquired on May 29, 2013 (see Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements).

•

International. Admissions revenues decreased due to a 14.2% decline in attendance, partially offset by a 0.4% increase in average ticket price from $4.84 for the 2013 period to $4.86 for the 2014 period. The decrease in concession revenues was attributable to the 14.2% decline in attendance and a 2.5% decrease in concession revenues per patron from $2.39 for 2013 period to $2.33 for 2014 period. The 2014 period was impacted by the unfavorable impact of exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate, the sale of our Mexico theatres during November 2013 and the World Cup. The decrease in concession revenues per patron was primarily due to the unfavorable impact of exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate.

U.S. Film rentals and advertising costs were $505.5 million, or 55.7% of admissions revenues for the 2014 period compared to $502.6 million, or 55.3% of admissions revenues, for the 2013 period. The increase in the film rentals and advertising rate was due to the mix of films released during the 2014 period compared to the 2013 period and increased advertising and promotion expenses and other film presentation costs. Concession supplies expense was $64.4 million, or 13.7% of concession revenues, for the 2014 period compared to $62.3 million, or 13.7% of concession revenues, for the 2013 period.

Salaries and wages increased to $149.8 million for the 2014 period from $140.2 million for the 2013 period. Facility lease expense increased to $176.2 million for the 2014 period from $157.2 million for the 2013 period. Utilities and other costs increased to $164.7 million for the 2014 period from $150.9 million for the 2013 period. All of the above-mentioned theatre operating costs for the 2014 period increased primarily due to the inclusion of the 32 Rave theatres acquired on May 29, 2013 (see Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements).

•

International. Film rentals and advertising costs were $159.9 million, or 48.2% of admissions revenues, for the 2014 period compared to $189.6 million, or 49.2% of admissions revenues, for the 2013 period. The decrease in the film rentals and advertising rate for the 2014 period was primarily due to increased virtual print fees that we earn from studios on films played in our international theatres. Concession supplies expense was $34.5 million, or 21.7% of concession revenues, for the 2014 period compared to $41.7 million, or 21.9% of concession revenues, for the 2013 period.

Salaries and wages decreased to $52.4 million for the 2014 period from $58.6 million for the 2013 period. Facility lease expense decreased to $63.4 million for the 2014 period from $73.6 million for the 2013 period. Utilities and other costs decreased to $69.3 million for the 2014 period from $78.9 million for the 2013 period. All of the above-mentioned theatre operating costs were impacted by changes in exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate and the sale of our Mexico theatres during November 2013.

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased to $114.9 million for the 2014 period from $120.7 million for the 2013 period. The reduction was primarily due to the effect of changes in exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate and the sale of our Mexico theatres in November 2013, offset by increased professional fees and increased salaries expense.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense was $131.1 million for the 2014 period compared to $120.2 million for the 2013 period. The increase was primarily due to new theatres, including the 32 Rave theatres acquired on May 29, 2013, partially offset by the sale of our Mexico theatres during November 2013.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. We recorded asset impairment charges on assets held and used of $5.3 million for the 2014 period compared to $2.1 million for the 2013 period. The long-lived asset impairment charges recorded during each of the periods presented were specific to theatres that were directly and individually impacted by increased competition, adverse changes in market demographics or adverse changes in the development or the conditions of the areas surrounding the theatre. Impairment charges for the 2014 period consisted of U.S. theatre properties, impacting eight of our twenty-six reporting units. See Note 13 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

(Gain) Loss on Sale of Assets and Other. We recorded a loss on sale of assets and other of $8.7 million during the 2014 period compared to a gain of $2.5 million during the 2013 period. The loss recorded during the 2014 period was primarily due to the retirement of certain theatre equipment that was replaced during the period and lease termination charges recorded for theatre closures. The gain recorded during the 2013 period was primarily a result of a gain on sale of a land parcel in the U.S., partially offset by the retirement of theatre equipment replaced during the period.

Interest Expense. Interest costs incurred, including amortization of debt issue costs, were $85.1 million for the 2014 period compared to $96.5 million for the 2013 period. The decrease was primarily due to the issuance of the 4.875% Senior Notes on May 24, 2013 that were used to pay off the former 8.625% Senior Notes on June 24, 2013 (see Note 4 to the condensed consolidated financial statements).

Loss on Early Retirement of Debt. We recorded a loss on early retirement of debt of approximately $72.3 million during the 2013 period as a result of the redemption of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s 8.625% Senior Notes on June 24, 2013. The loss on early retirement of debt included approximately $56.6 million for a make-whole premium paid and the write-off of approximately $8.0 million in unamortized bond discount and $7.6 million in unamortized debt issue costs and the payment of $0.1 million of other fees (see Note 4 to the condensed consolidated financial statements).

Distributions from NCM. We recorded distributions from NCM of $14.2 million during the 2014 period and $13.4 million during the 2013 period, which were in excess of the carrying value of our Tranche 1 investment. See Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Equity in Income of Affiliates. We recorded equity in income of affiliates of $17.5 million during the 2014 period compared to $15.8 million during the 2013 period. The equity in income of affiliates recorded during the 2014 period primarily included income of approximately $11.0 million related to our equity investment in DCIP (see Note 8 to our condensed consolidated financial statements) and income of approximately $5.7 million related to our equity investment in NCM (see Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements). The equity in income of affiliates recorded during the 2013 period primarily included income of approximately $7.3 million related to our equity investment in DCIP and income of approximately $8.5 million related to our equity investment in NCM.

Income Taxes. Income tax expense of $70.5 million was recorded for the 2014 period compared to $62.7 million for the 2013 period. The effective tax rate was 32.5% for the 2014 period compared to 31.8% for the 2013 period. The effective tax rate for the 2013 period reflects the impact of items related to our Mexican subsidiaries. Income tax provisions for interim (quarterly) periods are based on estimated annual income tax rates and are adjusted for the effects of significant, infrequent or unusual items (i.e. discrete items) occurring during the interim period. As a result, the interim rate may vary significantly from the normalized annual rate.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Operating Activities

We primarily collect our revenues in cash, mainly through box office receipts and the sale of concessions. In addition, nearly all of our theatres provide the patron a choice of using a credit card, debit card, or advanced-sale type certificates such as a gift card, in place of cash. Because our revenues are received in cash prior to the payment of related expenses, we have an operating “float” and historically have not required traditional working capital financing. Cash provided by operating activities was $223.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $178.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to the make-whole premium of $56.6 million paid upon the redemption of the 8.625% Senior Notes, which is reflected in net income for the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Investing Activities

Our investing activities have been principally related to the development and acquisition of theatres. New theatre openings and acquisitions historically have been financed with internally generated cash and by debt financing, including borrowings under our amended senior secured credit facility. Cash used for investing activities was $156.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $393.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. The decrease in cash used for investing activities was primarily due to the acquisition of theatres in the U.S. for approximately $259.2 million (see Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements) that occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Cash capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 and 2013 were as follows (in millions):


Period	New Theatres		Existing Theatres		Total
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2014	$	70.5	$	85.7	$	156.2
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2013	$	88.9	$	70.6	$	159.5

We continue to invest in our U.S. theatre circuit, which consisted of 4,473 screens at September 30, 2014. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we built five theatres with 59 screens and closed six theatres with 43 screens. At September 30, 2014, we had signed commitments to open three new theatres with 31 screens in domestic markets during the remainder of 2014 and open 10 new theatres with 112 screens subsequent to 2014. We estimate the remaining capital expenditures for the development of these 143 domestic screens will be approximately $92 million. Actual expenditures for continued theatre development and acquisitions are subject to change based upon the availability of attractive opportunities.

We also continue to invest in our international theatre circuit, which consisted of 1,156 screens at September 30, 2014. During the nine months ended September 30, 2014, we built nine new theatres and 54 screens and closed four screens. At September 30, 2014, we had signed commitments to open two new theatres and 20 screens in international markets during the remainder of 2014 and open 12 new theatres and 75 screens subsequent to 2014. We estimate the remaining capital expenditures for the development of these 95 international screens will be approximately $70 million. Actual expenditures for continued theatre development and acquisitions are subject to change based upon the availability of attractive opportunities.

We plan to fund capital expenditures for our continued development with cash flow from operations, borrowings under our amended senior secured credit facility, and proceeds from debt issuances, sale leaseback transactions and/or sales of excess real estate.

Financing Activities

Cash used for financing activities was $110.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2014 compared to $38.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Cash used for financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 included proceeds from the issuance of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s 4.875% Senior Notes, partially offset by the redemption of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s 8.625% Senior Notes (see Note 4 to the condensed consolidated financial statements).

We, at the discretion of the board of directors and subject to applicable law, anticipate paying regular quarterly dividends on our common stock. The amount, if any, of the dividends to be paid in the future will depend upon our then available cash, anticipated cash needs, overall financial condition, loan agreement restrictions as discussed below, future prospects for earnings and cash flows, as well as other relevant factors.

We may from time to time, subject to compliance with our debt instruments, purchase our debt securities on the open market depending upon the availability and prices of such securities. Long-term debt consisted of the following as of September 30, 2014 (in millions):


Cinemark, USA, Inc. term loan	$	687.8
Cinemark USA, Inc. 4.875% senior notes due 2023		530.0
Cinemark USA, Inc. 5.125% senior notes due 2022		400.0
Cinemark USA, Inc. 7.375% senior subordinated notes due 2021		200.0
Other		8.3

Total long-term debt	$	1,826.1
Less current portion		8.4

Long-term debt, less current portion	$	1,817.7

As of September 30, 2014, we had $100.0 million in available borrowing capacity on our revolving credit line.

Contractual Obligations

There have been no material changes in our contractual obligations previously disclosed in “Liquidity and Capital Resources” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 filed February 28, 2014.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Other than the operating leases and purchase commitments disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013 filed February 28, 2014, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Cinemark USA, Inc. 4.875% Senior Notes

On May 24, 2013, Cinemark USA, Inc. issued $530.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.875% senior notes due 2023, at par value, (the “4.875% Senior Notes”). Proceeds, after payment of fees, were used to finance a redemption of the 8.625% Senior Notes due 2019, discussed below. Interest on the 4.875% Senior Notes is payable on June 1 and December 1 of each year, beginning December 1, 2013. The 4.875% Senior Notes mature on June 1, 2023.

The 4.875% Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several senior unsecured basis by certain of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s subsidiaries that guarantee, assume or become liable with respect to any of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s or a guarantor’s debt. The 4.875% Senior Notes and the guarantees are senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s and its guarantor’s existing and future senior unsecured debt and senior in right of payment to all of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s and its guarantor’s existing and future senior subordinated debt. The 4.875% Senior Notes and the guarantees are effectively subordinated to all of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s and its guarantor’s existing and future secured debt to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt, including all borrowings under Cinemark USA, Inc.’s amended senior secured credit facility. The 4.875% Senior Notes and the guarantees are structurally subordinated to all existing and future debt and other liabilities of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s subsidiaries that do not guarantee the 4.875% Senior Notes.

The indenture to the 4.875% Senior Notes contains covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of Cinemark USA, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries to (1) make investments or other restricted payments, including paying dividends, making other distributions or repurchasing subordinated debt or equity, (2) incur additional indebtedness and issue preferred stock, (3) enter into transactions with affiliates, (4) enter new lines of business, (5) merge or consolidate with, or sell all or substantially all of its assets to, another person and (6) create liens. As of September 30, 2014, Cinemark USA, Inc. could have distributed up to approximately $1,633.0 million to its parent company and sole stockholder, Cinemark Holdings, Inc., under the terms of the indenture to the 4.875% Senior Notes, subject to its available cash and other borrowing restrictions outlined in the indenture. Upon a change of control, as defined in the indenture governing the 4.875% Senior Notes, Cinemark USA, Inc. would be required to make an offer to repurchase the 4.875% Senior Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, through the date of repurchase. The indenture governing the 4.875% Senior Notes allows Cinemark USA, Inc. to incur additional indebtedness if it satisfies the coverage ratio specified in the indenture, after giving effect to the incurrence of the additional indebtedness, and in certain other circumstances. The required minimum coverage ratio is 2 to 1 and our actual ratio as of September 30, 2014 was approximately 6.0 to 1.

Prior to June 1, 2018, Cinemark USA, Inc. may redeem all or any part of the 4.875% Senior Notes at its option at 100% of the principal amount plus a make-whole premium plus accrued and unpaid interest on the 4.875% Senior Notes to the date of redemption. After June 1, 2018, Cinemark USA, Inc. may redeem the 4.875% Senior Notes in whole or in part at redemption prices specified in the indenture. In addition, prior to June 1, 2016, Cinemark USA, Inc. may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 4.875% Senior Notes from the net proceeds of certain equity offerings at the redemption price set forth in the indenture.

On June 26, 2013, Cinemark USA, Inc. and its guarantor subsidiaries filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the Commission, pursuant to which Cinemark USA, Inc. offered to exchange the 4.875% Senior Notes for substantially identical notes registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), that do not contain terms restricting the transfer thereof or providing for registration rights. The registration statement was declared effective by the Commission on July 9, 2013. On August 7, 2013, Cinemark USA, Inc. completed the exchange of registered 4.875% Senior Notes for all of the outstanding 4.875% Senior Notes. The registered 4.875% Senior Notes, issued in the exchange, do not have transfer restrictions.

Amended Senior Secured Credit Facility

On December 18, 2012, Cinemark USA, Inc. amended and restated its senior secured credit facility to include a seven year $700.0 million term loan and a five year $100.0 million revolving credit line (the “Amended Senior Secured Credit Facility”). The proceeds from the Amended Senior Secured Credit Facility, combined with a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the 5.125% Senior Notes discussed below, were used to refinance Cinemark USA, Inc.’s former senior secured credit facility. The term loan under the Amended Senior Secured Credit Facility matures in December 2019. The revolving credit line matures in December 2017. Quarterly principal payments in the amount of $1.75 million are due on the term loan through September 2019 with the remaining principal of $652.8 million due on December 18, 2019.

Interest on the term loan accrues at Cinemark USA, Inc.’s option at: (A) the base rate equal to the higher of (1) the prime lending rate as set forth on the British Banking Association Telerate page 5, or (2) the federal funds effective rate from time to time plus 0.50%, plus a margin of 2.0% per annum, or (B) a “eurodollar rate” plus a margin of 3.0% per annum. Interest on the revolving credit line accrues, at Cinemark USA, Inc.’s option, at: (A) a base rate equal to the higher of (1) the prime lending rate as set forth on the British Banking Association Telerate page 5 and (2) the federal funds effective rate from time to time plus 0.50%, plus a margin that ranges from 1.00% to 1.75% per annum, or (B) a “eurodollar rate” plus a margin that ranges from 2.00% to 2.75% per annum. The margin of the revolving credit line is determined by the consolidated net senior secured leverage ratio as defined in the credit agreement.

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

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

The dividend restriction contained in the Amended Senior Secured Credit Facility prevents the Company and any of its subsidiaries from paying a dividend or otherwise distributing cash to its stockholders unless (1) the Company is not in default, and the distribution would not cause Cinemark USA, Inc. to be in default, under the Amended Senior Secured Credit Facility; and (2) the aggregate amount of certain dividends, distributions, investments, redemptions and capital expenditures made since December 18, 2012, including dividends declared by the board of directors, is less than the sum of (a) the aggregate amount of cash and cash equivalents received by Cinemark Holdings, Inc. or Cinemark USA, Inc. as common equity since December 18, 2012, (b) Cinemark USA, Inc.’s consolidated EBITDA minus 1.75 times its consolidated interest expense, each as defined in the Amended Senior Secured Credit Facility, and (c) certain other defined amounts. As of September 30, 2014, Cinemark USA, Inc. could have distributed up to approximately $1,657.6 million to its parent company and sole stockholder, Cinemark Holdings, Inc., under the terms of the Amended Senior Secured Credit Facility, subject to its available cash and other borrowing restrictions outlined in the agreement.

At September 30, 2014, there was $687.8 million outstanding under the term loan and no borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit line. Cinemark USA, Inc. had $100.0 million in available borrowing capacity on the revolving credit line. The average interest rate on outstanding term loan borrowings under the Amended Senior Secured Credit Facility at September 30, 2014 was approximately 4.0% per annum.

Cinemark USA, Inc. 5.125% Senior Notes

On December 18, 2012, Cinemark USA, Inc. issued $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.125% senior notes due 2022, at par value (the “5.125% Senior Notes”). A portion of the proceeds were used to refinance a portion of the former senior secured credit facility and to fund the purchase price for the Rave Acquisition (see Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements). Interest on the 5.125% Senior Notes is payable on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning June 15, 2013. The 5.125% Senior Notes mature on December 15, 2022.

The 5.125% Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several senior unsecured basis by certain of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s subsidiaries that guarantee, assume or become liable with respect to any of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s or a guarantor’s debt. The 5.125% Senior Notes and the guarantees are senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s and its guarantor’s existing and future senior unsecured debt and senior in right of payment to all of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s and its guarantor’s existing and future subordinated debt. The 5.125% Senior Notes and the guarantees are effectively subordinated to all of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s and its guarantor’s existing and future secured debt to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt, including all borrowings under Cinemark USA, Inc.’s amended senior secured credit facility. The 5.125% Senior Notes and the guarantees are structurally subordinated to all existing and future debt and other liabilities of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s subsidiaries that do not guarantee the 5.125% Senior Notes.

The indenture to the 5.125% Senior Notes contains covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of Cinemark USA, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries to (1) make investments or other restricted payments, including paying dividends, making other distributions or repurchasing subordinated debt or equity, (2) incur additional indebtedness and issue preferred stock, (3) enter into transactions with affiliates, (4) enter new lines of business, (5) merge or consolidate with, or sell all or substantially all of its assets to, another person and (6) create liens. As of September 30, 2014, Cinemark USA, Inc. could have distributed up to approximately $1,636.9 million to its parent company and sole stockholder, Cinemark Holdings, Inc., under the terms of the indenture to the 5.125% Senior Notes, subject to its available cash and other borrowing restrictions outlined in the indenture. Upon a change of control, as defined in the indenture governing the 5.125% Senior Notes, Cinemark USA, Inc. would be required to make an offer to repurchase the 5.125% Senior Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, through the date of repurchase. The indenture governing the 5.125% Senior Notes allows Cinemark USA, Inc. to incur additional indebtedness if it satisfies the coverage ratio specified in the indenture, after giving effect to the incurrence of the additional indebtedness, and in certain other circumstances. The required minimum coverage ratio is 2 to 1 and our actual ratio as of September 30, 2014 was approximately 6.2 to 1.

Prior to December 15, 2017, Cinemark USA, Inc. may redeem all or any part of the 5.125% Senior Notes at its option at 100% of the principal amount plus a make-whole premium. After December 15, 2017, Cinemark USA, Inc. may redeem the 5.125% Senior Notes in whole or in part at redemption prices described in the 5.125% Senior Notes. In addition, Cinemark USA, Inc. may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 5.125% Senior Notes from the net proceeds of certain equity offerings at the redemption price set forth in the 5.125% Senior Notes.

On April 16, 2013, Cinemark USA, Inc. and its guarantor subsidiaries filed a registration statement with the Commission, pursuant to which Cinemark USA, Inc. offered to exchange the 5.125% Senior Notes for identical notes registered under the Securities Act. The registration statement was declared effective by the Commission on April 25, 2013. On May 23, 2013, Cinemark USA, Inc. completed the exchange of registered 5.125% Senior Notes for all of the outstanding 5.125% Senior Notes. The registered 5.125% Senior Notes, issued in the exchange, do not have transfer restrictions.

Cinemark USA, Inc. 7.375% Senior Subordinated Notes

On June 3, 2011, Cinemark USA, Inc. issued $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7.375% senior subordinated notes due 2021, at par value (the “Senior Subordinated Notes”). The proceeds, after payment of fees, were primarily used to fund the prepayment of the remaining $157.2 million of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s unextended portion of term loan debt under its former senior secured credit facility. Interest on the Senior Subordinated Notes is payable on June 15 and December 15 of each year. The Senior Subordinated Notes mature on June 15, 2021.

The Senior Subordinated Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several senior subordinated unsecured basis by certain of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s subsidiaries that guarantee, assume or become liable with respect to any of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s or a guarantor’s other debt. The Senior Subordinated Notes and the guarantees are senior subordinated unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s and a guarantor’s future senior subordinated indebtedness; are subordinate in right of payment to all of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s and a guarantor’s existing and future senior indebtedness, whether secured or unsecured, including Cinemark USA, Inc.’s obligations under its Amended Senior Secured Credit Facility, its 5.125% Senior Notes and 4.875% Senior Notes; and structurally subordinate to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s non-guarantor subsidiaries.

The indenture to the Senior Subordinated Notes contains covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of Cinemark USA, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries to (1) make investments or other restricted payments, including paying dividends, making other distributions or repurchasing subordinated debt or equity, (2) incur additional indebtedness and issue preferred stock, (3) enter into transactions with affiliates, (4) enter new lines of business, (5) merge or consolidate with, or sell all or substantially all of its assets to, another person and (6) create liens.

Upon a change of control, as defined in the indenture, Cinemark USA, Inc. would be required to make an offer to repurchase the Senior Subordinated Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, through the date of repurchase. The indenture allows Cinemark USA, Inc. to incur additional indebtedness if it satisfies the coverage ratio specified in the indenture, after giving effect to the incurrence of the additional indebtedness, and in certain other circumstances. The required minimum coverage ratio is 2 to 1, and our actual ratio as of September 30, 2014 was approximately 6.0 to 1.

Prior to June 15, 2016, Cinemark USA, Inc. may redeem all or any part of the Senior Subordinated Notes at its option at 100% of the principal amount plus a make-whole premium plus accrued and unpaid interest on the senior subordinated notes to the date of redemption. After June 15, 2016, Cinemark USA, Inc. may redeem the Senior Subordinated Notes in whole or in part at redemption prices specified in the indenture. In addition, prior to June 15, 2014, Cinemark USA, Inc. may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Subordinated Notes from the net proceeds of certain equity offerings at the redemption price set forth in the indenture.

Cinemark USA, Inc. and its guarantor subsidiaries filed a registration statement with the Commission on July 27, 2011 pursuant to which Cinemark USA, Inc. offered to exchange the Senior Subordinated Notes for substantially similar Senior Subordinated Notes registered under the Securities Act. The registration statement became effective August 4, 2011, and approximately $199.5 million of the notes were exchanged on September 7, 2011. The registered Senior Subordinated Notes, issued in the exchange, do not have transfer restrictions. Approximately $0.5 million of the Senior Subordinated Notes were not exchanged as of September 30, 2014.

Cinemark USA, Inc. 8.625% Senior Notes

On June 29, 2009, Cinemark USA, Inc. issued $470.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8.625% senior notes due 2019 (the “8.625% Senior Notes”), with an original issue discount of $11.5 million, resulting in proceeds of approximately $458.5 million. The proceeds were primarily used to fund the repurchase of the then remaining outstanding $419.4 million aggregate principal amount at maturity of Cinemark, Inc.’s 9.75% senior discount notes.

On June 24, 2013, Cinemark USA, Inc. redeemed its 8.625% Senior Notes at 112.035% of the principal amount, inclusive of a make-whole premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, utilizing the proceeds from the issuance of the 4.875% Senior Notes discussed above. As a result of the redemption, we wrote-off approximately $8.0 million in unamortized bond discount and $7.6 million in unamortized debt issue costs, paid a make-whole premium of approximately $56.6 million and paid other fees of $0.1 million, all of which are reflected in loss on early retirement of debt during the nine months ended September 30, 2013.

Covenant Compliance

As of September 30, 2014, we believe we were in full compliance with all agreements, including all related covenants, governing our outstanding debt.

Seasonality

Our revenues have historically been seasonal, coinciding with the timing of releases of motion pictures by the major distributors. Generally, the most successful motion pictures have been released during the summer, extending from May to July, and during the holiday season, extending from early November through year-end. The unexpected emergence of a hit film during other periods can alter this seasonality trend. The timing of such film releases can have a significant effect on our results of operations, and the results of one quarter are not necessarily indicative of results for the next quarter or for the same period in the following year.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

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

Interest Rate Risk

We are currently party to variable rate debt facilities. An increase or decrease in interest rates would affect our interest expense relating to our variable rate debt facilities. At September 30, 2014, there was an aggregate of approximately $237.8 million of variable rate debt outstanding under these facilities, which excludes $450.0 million of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s term loan debt that is hedged with the Company’s interest rate swap agreements in effect as of September 30, 2014 as discussed below. Based on the interest rates in effect on the variable rate debt outstanding at September 30, 2014, a 100 basis point increase in market interest rates would increase our annual interest expense by approximately $2.4 million.

Our interest rate swap agreements qualify for cash flow hedge accounting. The fair values of the interest rate swaps are recorded on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as an asset or liability with the effective portion of the interest rate swaps’ gains or losses reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss and the ineffective portion reported in earnings.

Below is a summary of our interest rate swap agreements as of September 30, 2014:


Nominal Amount (in millions)	Effective Date	Pay Rate			Receive Rate	Expiration Date
$175.0	December 2010		1.3975	%	1-month LIBOR	September 2015
$175.0	December 2010		1.4000	%	1-month LIBOR	September 2015
$100.0	November 2011		1.7150	%	1-month LIBOR	April 2016
