Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

Certain matters within this Quarterly Report on Form 10Q 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 filed February 23, 2018 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”) operates in the motion picture exhibition industry, with theatres in the United States (“U.S.”), Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Guatemala, Bolivia, Curacao and Paraguay.

The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2017, 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, 2017, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed February 23, 2018 by the Company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved for the full year.

2. | New Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), (“ASC Topic 606”), which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. ASC Topic 606 replaces most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. In addition, the standard requires disclosure of the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from the contracts with customers. The Company adopted ASC Topic 606 effective January 1, 2018. See Note 3 for further discussion.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842), (“ASU 2016-02”). The purpose of ASU 2016-02 is to provide financial statement users a better understanding of the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The adoption of ASU 2016-02 will result in the recognition of a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for most operating leases. New disclosure requirements include qualitative and quantitative information about the amounts recorded in the financial statements. ASU 2016-02 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018. ASU 2016-02 requires a modified retrospective transition by means of a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the fiscal year in which the guidance is effective with the option to elect certain practical expedients. Early adoption is permitted. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-10, Codification Improvements to Topic 842, Leases, (“ASU 2018-10”). The amendments in ASU 2018-10 provide clarification of narrow aspects of the guidance issued in ASU 2016-02. In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-11, Leases (Topic 842), Targeted Improvements, (“ASU 2018-11”). The amendments in ASU 2018-11 provide an additional transition method to adopt the amendments in ASU 2016-02. Under this new transition method, an entity initially applies the amendments in ASU 2016-02 at the adoption date and recognizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption. Under this transition method, an entity is not required to use the modified transition method described in ASU 2016-02. The Company plans to adopt the additional transition method provided in ASU 2018-11. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2016-02, ASU 2018-10 and ASU 2018-11 on its condensed consolidated financial statements including, but not limited to, the impact of 1) the recognition of right-of-use assets and liabilities for operating leases, 2) the reassessment of certain leases previously evaluated under sale-leaseback accounting guidance and 3) the reclassification of certain rent related assets and liabilities as part of the right-of-use assets. The most significant impact of these amendments on the Company’s financial statements will be the recognition of new right-of-use assets and lease liabilities related to leased theatres and certain leased equipment that are currently classified as operating leases. The Company will adopt the amendments in ASU 2016-02, ASU 2018-10 and ASU 2018-11 in the first quarter of 2019.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments – a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force, (“ASU 2016-15”). The purpose of ASU 2016-15 is to reduce the diversity in practice re garding how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within that year. A retrospective tran sition method should be used in the application of the amendments within ASU 2016-15. The Company adopted ASU 2016-15 effective January 1, 2018. As a result of the adoption of ASU 2016-15, cash paid of $246 related to the June 2017 amendment of the Compa ny’s senior secured credit facility was reclassified from operating activities to financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2017.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework – Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, (“ASU 2018-13”). The purpose of ASU 2018-13 is to improve the disclosures related to fair value measurements in the financial statements. The improvements in ASU include the removal, modification and addition of certain disclosure requirements primarily related to Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2016-18 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019, including interim periods within that year. The amendments in ASU 2018-13 should be applied prospectively. The Company does not expect ASU 2018-13 to have a significant impact on its condensed consolidated financial statements.

U.S. Tax Reform

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Tax Act"). The Tax Act made changes to the U.S. tax code, which included (1) reduced U.S. corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent, (2) generally eliminated U.S. federal income taxes on dividends from foreign subsidiaries, and (3) a one-time transition tax on certain undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries. Under ASC 740, Income Taxes, reporting entities are required to recognize the effect(s) of the Act on current and deferred income taxes in the enactment period’s financial statements. As of September 30, 2018, the amounts recorded for the Tax Act pertaining to the transition tax impact for 2017 are final, however, the transition tax impact for 2018 remains provisional. The amounts recorded for the re-measurement of net deferred taxes, and the Company’s reassessment of valuation allowances remain provisional. These estimates may be impacted by further analysis due to future clarification and guidance regarding earnings and profits computations, state tax conformity to federal tax changes, and potential tax planning options under consideration.

3. | Revenue Recognition

Revenue Recognition Policy

The Company recognizes admissions and concession revenues when sales are made at the box office and concession stand, respectively. Other revenues include screen advertising, transactional fees and other ancillary revenues such as vendor marketing promotions and meeting rentals and events. The Company records proceeds from the sale of gift cards and other advanced sale-type certificates in current liabilities and recognizes admissions or concession revenue when a holder redeems the card or certificate. Additionally, the Company recognizes unredeemed gift cards and other advanced sale-type certificates as other revenues based on a proportion of redemptions, which is estimated primarily based on the Company’s historical experience with such cards and certificates.

Screen advertising revenues are generally recognized over the period that the related advertising is delivered on-screen or in-theatre. Advances collected on long-term screen advertising, concession and other contracts are recorded as deferred revenues. In accordance with the terms of the agreements, the advances collected on such contracts are recognized during the period in which the Company satisfies the related performance obligations, which may differ from the period in which the advances are collected. These advances are recognized on either a straight-line basis over the term of the contracts or as the Company has met its performance obligations in accordance with the terms of the contracts.

See additional revenue recognition policy considerations, updated for the adoption of ASC Topic 606, below.

Adoption of ASC Topic 606

The Company adopted ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, effective January 1, 2018 under the modified retrospective method (cumulative-effect) and therefore, revenue amounts as presented on the condensed consolidated statements of income have not been adjusted for prior periods presented.

Changes to the way in which the Company recognizes revenue resulted in the following impacts to the condensed consolidated statements of income:

| a) | Recording of incremental other revenue and interest expense related to the significant financing component of the Company’s Exhibitor Services Agreement (“ESA”) with NCM, LLC (“NCM”). See further discussion below, including the estimated interest rates assumed in determining the amount of interest expense.

| b) | Deferral of a portion of admissions and concession revenues for transactions that include the issuance of loyalty points to customers. To determine the amount of revenues to defer upon issuance of points to customers under its points-based loyalty programs, the Company estimated the values of the rewards expected to be redeemed by its customers for those points. The estimates are based on the rewards that have historically been offered under the loyalty programs, which the Company believes is representative of the rewards to be offered in the future.

| c) | Increase in other revenues and an increase in utilities and other expenses due to the presentation of transactional fees on a gross versus net basis.

| d) | Increase in other revenues due to the change in amortization methodology for deferred revenue – NCM that is now amortized on a straight-line basis and effective for the entire term of the ESA. As a result of the change in amortization method, the Company recorded a cumulative effect of accounting change adjustment of $40,526, net of taxes, in retained earnings on January 1, 2018 (see also Note 6).

The above noted changes increased (decreased) admissions, concession and other revenue for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, disaggregated as follows:

|  | Three Months Ended |  |  | Nine Months Ended |
|  | September 30, 2018 |
Admissions revenues |  | $ | (1,524 | ) |  | $ | (4,724 | )
Concession revenues |  | $ | (725 | ) |  | $ | (1,932 | )
Other revenues |  | $ | 25,794 |  |  | $ | 85,963 |

The Company applied the practical expedient to exclude sales and other similar taxes collected from customers from its transaction price for purposes of recording revenues. As such, revenues are presented net of such taxes.

Accounts receivable as of September 30, 2018 included approximately $49,224 of receivables related to contracts with customers. The Company did not record any assets related to the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract with customers during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Significant Financing Component

As discussed further in Note 7, in connection with the completion of the NCM, Inc. (“NCMI”) initial public offering, the Company amended and restated its ESA with NCM and received approximately $174,000 in cash consideration from NCM. The proceeds were recorded as deferred revenue and are being amortized over the term of the modified ESA, or through February 2037. In addition to the consideration received upon the ESA modification during 2007, the Company also receives consideration in the form of common units from NCM, at each annual common unit adjustment settlement, in exchange for exclusive access to the Company’s newly opened domestic screens under the ESA. See Note 7 for additional information regarding the common unit adjustment and related accounting. Due to the significant length of time between receiving the consideration from NCM and fulfillment of the related performance obligation, the ESA includes an implied significant financing component, as per the guidance in ASC Topic 606.

As a result of the significant financing component on deferred revenue - NCM, the Company recognized incremental screen advertising revenue and an offsetting interest expense of $4,983 and $14,875 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively. The interest expense was calculated using the Company’s incremental borrowing rates at the time when the cash and each tranche of common units were received from NCM, which ranged from 5.5% to 8.0%.

4. | 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.

5. | Long Term Debt Activity

Senior Secured Credit Facility

On March 29, 2018, Cinemark USA, Inc., our wholly-owned subsidiary, amended its senior secured credit facility to extend the maturity of the term loan to March 29, 2025, reduce the rate at which the term loan bears interest by 0.25% and to reduce the amount of real property required to be mortgaged to secure the loans. Under the amended facility, quarterly principal payments of $1,649 are due on the term loan through December 31, 2024, with a final principal payment of $613,351 due on March 29, 2025. The Company incurred debt issue costs of approximately $4,962 in connection with the amendment, which are reflected as a reduction of long term debt on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2018. As a result of the amendment, the Company wrote-off $780 of unamortized debt issue costs and incurred approximately $704 in legal and other fees, both of which are reflected as loss on debt amendments and refinancing on the condensed consolidated statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Fair Value of Long-Term Debt

The Company estimates the fair value of its long-term debt using the market approach, which utilizes quoted market prices that fall under Level 2 of the U.S. GAAP fair value hierarchy as defined by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement (“ASC Topic 820”). The carrying value of the Company’s long-term debt was $1,812,349 and $1,817,295 as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, excluding unamortized debt discounts and debt issue costs. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was $1,804,535 and $1,840,918 as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively.

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. Upon joining NCM, the Company entered into an Exhibitor Services Agreement with NCM (“ESA”), pursuant to which NCM provides advertising and promotions to our theatres. As described further in Note 5 to the Company’s financial statements as included in its 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K, on February 13, 2007, National Cinemedia, Inc. (“NCMI”), an entity that serves as the sole manager of NCM, completed an initial public offering (“IPO”) of its common stock. In connection with the NCMI initial public offering, 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.

Below is a summary of activity with NCM included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements:

(1) | As a result of adoption of ASC Topic 606, the Company determined that the deferred revenue associated with the ESA and Common Unit Adjustment agreement should be amortized on a straight-line basis versus the units of revenue method followed prior to adoption. The Company recorded a reduction in the deferred revenue balance and a cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle in retained earnings (see also Note 6). See Note 3 for further discussion of the impact of the adoption of ASC Topic 606.

During the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded equity in earnings of $6,830 and $5,032, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded equity in earnings of $11,341 and $8,098, respectively.

The Company made payments to NCM of $67 and $75 during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively, related to installation of certain equipment used for digital advertising, which is included in theatre properties and equipment on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Pursuant to a Common Unit Adjustment Agreement dated as of February 13, 2007 between NCMI and the Company, AMC Entertainment, Inc. (“AMC”) and Regal Entertainment Group (“Regal”) (collectively, “Founding Members”), 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 5 to the Company’s financial statements as included in its 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K, the common units received (collectively referred to as the Company’s “Tranche 2 Investment”) are recorded at estimated fair value as an increase in the Company’s investment in NCM with an offset to deferred revenue. The Company’s Tranche 2 Investment is accounted for following the equity method, with undistributed equity earnings related to its Tranche 2 Investment included as a component of earnings in equity in income of affiliates and distributions received related to its Tranche 2 Investment are recorded as a reduction of investment basis.

During March 2018, NCM performed its annual common unit adjustment calculation under the Common Unit Adjustment Agreement. As a result of the calculation, on March 29, 2018, the Company received an additional 908,042 common units of NCM, each of which is convertible into one share of NCMI common stock. The Company recorded the additional common units received at estimated fair value with a corresponding adjustment to deferred revenue of approximately $5,012. The fair value of the common units received was estimated based on the market price of NCMI common stock at the time the common units were determined, adjusted for volatility associated with the estimated time period it would take to convert the common units and register the respective shares. The deferred revenue will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the ESA, which is approximately 19 years.

On July 5, 2018 the Company acquired 10,738,740 common units of NCM from AMC for $78,393 in cash, or approximately $7.30 per common unit. As a result of the acquisition of these shares, the Company’s ownership of NCM increased from approximately 18% to 25%. The amount paid for the additional common units was recorded as an increase in the Company’s investment in NCM.

As of September 30, 2018, the Company owned a total of 39,518,644 common units of NCM, representing an ownership interest of approximately 25%. The estimated fair value of the Company’s investment in NCM was approximately $418,502 based on the price of NCMI common stock as of September 28, 2018 of $10.59 per share (Level 1 input as defined in FASB ASC Topic 820).

As of September 30, 2018, the estimated remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested restricted stock awards was $17,360 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, 2018, the Company granted restricted stock units representing 228,194 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 periods ending December 31, 2019 based on a formula utilizing a multiple of Adjusted EBITDA subject to certain adjustments as specified by the Compensation Committee prior to the grant date. The financial performance factors for the restricted stock units have a threshold, target and maximum level of payment opportunity and vest on a prorata basis according to the IRR achieved by the Company during the performance period. If the IRR for the two-year period is at least 7%, which is the threshold, one-third of the maximum restricted stock units vest. If the IRR for the two-year period is at least 9.5%, which is the target, two-thirds of the maximum restricted stock units vest. If the IRR for the two-year period is at least 13%, which is the maximum, 100% of the maximum restricted stock units vest. Grantees are eligible to receive a ratable portion of the common stock issuable if the IRR is within the targets previously noted. Further, as an example, if the Company achieves an IRR equal to 11%, the number of restricted stock units that shall vest will be greater than the target but less than the maximum number that would have vested had the Company achieved the highest IRR. All restricted stock units granted during 2018 will vest 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 the fourth anniversary of the grant date. Restricted stock unit award participants are eligible to receive dividend equivalent payments from the grant date if, and at the time that, 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, 2018 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 7% |  |  | 76,065 |  |  | $ | 2,967 |
at IRR of at least 9.5% |  |  | 152,129 |  |  | $ | 5,938 |
at IRR of at least 13% |  |  | 228,194 |  |  | $ | 8,906 |

Due to the fact that the IRR for the two-year performance period could not be determined at the time of the 2018 grant, the Company estimated that the most likely outcome is the achievement of the target IRR level. The fair value of the restricted stock unit awards was determined based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the dates of grant, which ranged from $37.55

to $39.03 per share. The Company assumed forfeiture rates ranging from 0% to 5% for the restricted stock unit awards. If durin g 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 are expected to vest for the grant and adjust its compensation expense accordingly on a prospective basis over the remaining service period.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company determined that the IRR reached for the restricted stock units granted in February 2016 was 7.2%, compared to a target IRR of 8.0%. The Company recorded a reduction in compensation expense of $69 during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to reflect the revised number of shares expected to vest in February 2020 for the 2016 restricted stock unit grant.

As of September 30, 2018, the estimated remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to the outstanding restricted stock unit awards was $8,835. The weighted average period over which this remaining compensation expense will be recognized is approximately two years. As of September 30, 2018, the Company had restricted stock units outstanding that represented a total of 594,266 hypothetical shares of common stock, net of actual cumulative forfeitures of 18,667 units, assuming an IRR of 7.2% was achieved for the 2016 grants and the maximum IRR level is achieved for all other grants outstanding.

10. | Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The Company’s goodwill was as follows:

|  | U.S. Operating Segment |  |  | International Operating Segment |  |  | Total |
Balance at January 1, 2018 (1) |  | $ | 1,174,041 |  |  | $ | 110,038 |  |  | $ | 1,284,079 |

Foreign currency translation adjustments |  |  | — |  |  |  | (17,011 | ) |  |  | (17,011 | )
Balance at September 30, 2018 (1) |  | $ | 1,174,041 |  |  | $ | 102,759 |  |  | $ | 1,276,800 |

| (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.

| (2) | Amount represents preliminary purchase price allocation for theatres acquired in Brazil.

The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment annually during the fourth quarter or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of the goodwill may not be fully recoverable. 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. Management considers the reporting unit to be each of its nineteen regions in the U.S. and seven countries internationally with Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama and Guatemala considered one reporting unit (the Company does not have goodwill recorded for all of its international locations). For the year ended December 31, 2017, the Company performed a quantitative goodwill impairment assessment on all reporting units, in accordance with ASC Topic 350-20-35. No events or changes in circumstances occurred during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 that indicated the carrying value of goodwill might exceed its estimated fair value.

11. | 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. See discussion of the Company’s long-lived asset impairment evaluation process in Note 1 to the Company’s financial statements as included in its 2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K. As noted in the discussion, 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, 2018 and 2017. As of September 30, 2018, the estimated aggregate fair value of the long-lived assets impaired during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 was $178.

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.

Below is a summary of impairment charges for the periods presented:

|  | Three Months Ended |  |  | Nine Months Ended |

12. | Fair Value Measurements

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

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

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

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

The Company did not have any assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis under ASC Topic 820 as of December 31, 2017 or September 30, 2018.

The Company uses the market approach for fair value measurements on a nonrecurring basis in the impairment evaluations of its long-lived assets (see Note 10 and Note 11). See additional explanation of fair value measurement techniques used for long-lived assets, goodwill and intangible assets in “Critical Accounting Policies” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, filed February 23, 2018. There were no changes in valuation techniques and there were no transfers in or out of Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 during the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

13. | Foreign Currency Translation

The accumulated other comprehensive loss account in stockholders’ equity of $320,166 and $253,282 as of September 30, 2018 and December 31, 2017, respectively, primarily includes cumulative foreign currency adjustments of $320,406 and $253,565, respectively, from translating the financial statements of the Company’s international subsidiaries.

As of September 30, 2018, all foreign countries where the Company has operations, other than Argentina, 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. The Company deemed Argentina to be highly inflationary beginning July 1, 2018. A highly inflationary economy is defined as an economy with a cumulative inflation rate of approximately 100 percent or more over a three-year period. If a country’s economy is classified as highly inflationary, the financial statements of the foreign entity operating in that country must be remeasured to the functional currency of the reporting entity. The financial information of the Company’s Argentina subsidiaries has been remeasured in U.S. dollars in accordance with ASC Topic 830, Foreign Currency Matters, effective beginning July 1, 2018.

Below is a summary of the impact of translating the September 30, 2018 financial statements of the Company’s international subsidiaries:

|  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Other |
|  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | Comprehensive |

15. | Segments

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

17. | Commitments and Contingencies

Silken Brown v. Cinemark USA, Inc., Case No. 3:13cv05669, In the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, San Francisco Division. The case presents putative class action claims for penalties and attorney's fees arising from alleged violations of the California wage statement law. The claim is also asserted as a representative action under the California Private Attorney General Act (PAGA) for penalties. The Court granted class certification. The company denies the claims, denies that class certification is appropriate, denies that the plaintiff has standing to assert the claims alleged and is vigorously defending against the claims. The company denies any violation of law and plans to vigorously defend against all claims. The Company is unable to predict the outcome of this litigation or the range of potential loss.

Flagship Theatres of Palm Desert, LLC d/b/a Cinemas Palme D’Or v. Century Theatres, Inc., and Cinemark USA, Inc.; Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles. Plaintiff in this case alleges that the Company violated California antitrust and unfair competition laws by engaging in “circuit dealing” with various motion picture distributors and tortuously interfered with Plaintiff’s business relationships. Plaintiff seeks compensatory damages, trebling of those damages under California law, punitive damages, injunctive relief, attorneys’ fees, costs and interest. Plaintiff also alleges that the Company’s conduct ultimately resulted in closure of its theatre in June 2016. The Company denied the allegations. In 2008, the Company moved for summary judgment on Plaintiff’s claims, arguing primarily that clearances between the theatres at issue were lawful and that Plaintiff lacked proof sufficient to support certain technical elements of its antitrust claims. The trial court granted that motion and dismissed Plaintiff’s claims. Plaintiff appealed and, in 2011, the Court of Appeal reversed, holding, among other things, that Plaintiff’s claims were not about the illegality of clearances but were focused, instead, on “circuit dealing.” Having re-framed the claims in that manner, the Court of Appeal held that the trial court’s decision to limit discovery to the market where the theatres at issue operated was an error, as “circuit dealing” necessarily involves activities in different markets. Upon return to the trial court, the parties engaged in additional, broadened discovery related to Plaintiff’s “circuit dealing” claim. Thereafter, the Company moved again for summary judgment on all of Plaintiff’s claims. That new motion for summary judgment was pending when, on or about April 11, 2014, the trial court granted the Company’s motion for terminating sanctions and entered a judgment dismissing the case with prejudice. Plaintiff then appealed that second dismissal, seeking to have the judgment reversed and the case remanded to the trial court. The Court of Appeal issued a ruling on May 24, 2016, reversing the granting of terminating sanctions and instead imposed a lesser evidentiary and damages preclusion sanction. The case returned to the trial court on October 6, 2016. On May 10, 2018, after a five-week jury trial, the jury found no liability on one circuit dealing claim and awarded Plaintiff damages on the other claim, which are tripled for antitrust damage awards. Plaintiff would also be entitled to certain court costs and to seek at least some portion of its attorney’s fees. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, the Company recorded a litigation reserve based on an estimate of the jury award, which is reflected in loss on disposal of assets and other on the condensed consolidated income statement. The trial court denied a motion for a judgment notwithstanding the verdict and a motion for a new trial. The Company intends to appeal the judgment. Although the Company denies that it engaged in any form of circuit dealing, it cannot predict the outcome of its pending motions or future appeals.

The CIDs request the Company to answer interrogatories, and produce documents, or both, related to the investigation of matters including film clearances, potential coordination and/or co mmunication with other major theatre circuits and related joint ventures. The Company intends to fully cooperate with all federal and state government agencies. Although the Company does not believe that it has violated any federal or state antitrust or c ompetition laws, it cannot predict the ultimate scope, duration or outcome of these investigations.

From time to time, the Company is involved in various other 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, Ecuador, Peru, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Guatemala, Bolivia, Curacao and Paraguay. As of September 30, 2018, we managed our business under two reportable operating segments – U.S. markets and international markets. See Note 15 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

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

Films leading the box office during the nine months ended September 30, 2018 included new releases such as Black Panther, Avengers: Infinity War, Incredibles 2, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom, Deadpool 2, Mission Impossible – Fallout, Ant-Man and the Wasp, Solo: A Star Wars Story, A Quiet Place, Crazy Rich Asians and other films, as well as the carryover of The Greatest Showman, Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle and Star Wars: The Last Jedi. Films scheduled for release during the remainder of 2018 include well-known franchise films such as Venom, Halloween, Bumblebee, Ralph Breaks the Internet, Dr. Seuss’ The Grinch, Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald and Mary Poppins Returns and original titles including A Star is Born, Bohemian Rhapsody and Aquaman, 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. Advertising costs, which are expensed as incurred, are primarily related to campaigns for new and renovated theatres, loyalty and membership programs and brand advertising that vary depending on the timing of such campaigns.

Concession supplies expense is variable in nature and fluctuates with our concession revenues. 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 leases are subject to percentage rent only, while others are subject to percentage rent in addition to their fixed monthly rent if a target annual performance level is achieved. Facility lease expense as a percentage of 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 both fixed and variable costs and primarily consist of utilities, expenses for projection and sound equipment maintenance and monitoring, property taxes, janitorial costs, repairs, maintenance and security services.

General and administrative expenses are primarily fixed in nature and consist of the costs to support the overall management of the Company, including salaries and wages, incentive compensation and benefit costs for our corporate office personnel, facility expenses for our corporate offices, consulting fees, legal fees, audit fees, supplies and other costs that are not specifically associated with the operations of our theatres.

Critical Accounting Policies

We adopted ASC Topic 606 effective January 1, 2018, therefore, our revenue recognition policy has been modified as discussed in Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Three months ended September 3 0, 2018 versus September 30, 2017

Revenues. Total revenues increased $43.4 million to $754.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2018 (“third quarter of 2018”) from $710.8 million for the three months ended September 30, 2017 (“third quarter of 2017”), representing a 6.1% increase. The table below, presented by reportable operating segment, summarizes our revenue performance and certain key performance indicators for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017.

(1) | Revenues and attendance amounts in millions. Average ticket price is calculated as admissions revenues divided by attendance. Concession revenues per patron is calculated as concession revenues divided by attendance.

(2) | U.S. operating segment revenues include eliminations of intercompany transactions with the international operating segment. See Note 15 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

(3) | Constant currency revenue amounts, which are non-GAAP measurements, were calculated using the average exchange rate for the corresponding month for 2017. We translate the results of our international operating segment from local currencies into U.S. dollars using currency rates in effect at different points in time in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Significant changes in foreign exchange rates from one period to the next can result in meaningful variations in reported results. We are providing constant currency amounts for our international operating segment to present a period-to-period comparison of business performance that excludes the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

| • | U.S. Admissions revenues grew $21.0 million primarily due to a 7.6% increase in attendance offset by a 0.8% decrease in average ticket price. The increase in attendance was due to a stronger slate of films during the third quarter of 2018 compared to the third quarter of 2017 as well as the favorable impact of luxury lounger conversions. The decrease in average ticket price was primarily due to film mix, partially offset by price increases. Concession revenues grew $26.4 million primarily due to the 7.6% increase in attendance and a 6.5% increase in concession revenues per patron. Concession revenues per patron grew primarily due to price increases, incremental sales and continued expansion of concession offerings. Other revenues increased $24.2 million primarily due to the impact of changes in revenue recognition as discussed in Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

| • | International. Admissions revenues decreased $18.5 million as reported primarily due to a 14.5% decrease in average ticket price and a 2.2% decrease in attendance. Admissions revenues increased $3.5 million in constant currency. Concession revenues decreased $9.4 million as reported primarily due to a 12.6% decrease in concession revenues per patron and the 2.2% decrease in attendance. Concession revenues increased $1.5 million in constant currency. The decline in attendance was driven by weaker consumer appeal of the film slate during the third quarter of 2018 compared to the third quarter of 2017. Average ticket price and concession revenues per patron decreased, as reported, primarily due to the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate. Other revenues decreased primarily due to the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate and decreased screen advertising revenues, partially offset by the impact of changes in revenue recognition as discussed in Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Cost of Operations. The table below summarizes our theatre operating costs (in millions) by reportable operating segment for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017.

|  | U.S. Operating Segment |  |  | International Operating Segment |  |  | Consolidated |

Film rentals and advertising |  | $ | 185.1 |  |  | $ | 171.5 |  |  | $ | 45.0 |  |  | $ | 54.7 |  |  | $ | 55.5 |  |  | $ | 230.1 |  |  | $ | 226.2 |
Concession supplies |  | $ | 31.2 |  |  | $ | 26.2 |  |  | $ | 11.5 |  |  | $ | 14.0 |  |  | $ | 13.7 |  |  | $ | 42.7 |  |  | $ | 40.2 |
Salaries and wages |  | $ | 73.2 |  |  | $ | 64.6 |  |  | $ | 19.3 |  |  | $ | 22.7 |  |  | $ | 24.0 |  |  | $ | 92.5 |  |  | $ | 87.3 |
Facility lease expense |  | $ | 61.1 |  |  | $ | 59.8 |  |  | $ | 19.5 |  |  | $ | 22.2 |  |  | $ | 23.1 |  |  | $ | 80.6 |  |  | $ | 82.0 |
Utilities and other |  | $ | 83.0 |  |  | $ | 64.0 |  |  | $ | 29.9 |  |  | $ | 28.4 |  |  | $ | 36.8 |  |  | $ | 112.9 |  |  | $ | 92.4 |

| results. We are providing constant currency amounts for our international operating segment to present a period-to-per iod comparison of business performance that excludes the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

| • | U.S. Film rentals and advertising costs were $185.1 million, or 55.5% of admissions revenues, for the third quarter of 2018 compared to $171.5 million, or 54.9% of admissions revenues, for the third quarter of 2017. The increase in the film rentals and advertising rate was primarily due to the mix of films during the third quarter of 2018 as well as the deferral of some admissions revenues related to our loyalty program. Concession supplies expense was $31.2 million, or 15.0% of concession revenues, for the third quarter of 2018 compared to $26.2 million, or 14.4% of concession revenues, for the third quarter of 2017. The increase in the concessions supplies rate was primarily due to expanded concession offerings.

Salaries and wages increased to $73.2 million for the third quarter of 2018 from $64.6 million for the third quarter of 2017 primarily due to increased staffing levels to support the growth in attendance and expanded concession offerings, staffing at new and recently remodeled theatres, as well as increases in minimum and other wage rates. Facility lease expense increased to $61.1 million for the third quarter of 2018 from $59.8 million for the third quarter of 2017 primarily due to higher percentage rent due to the increase in revenues. Utilities and other costs increased to $83.0 million for the third quarter of 2018 from $64.0 million for the third quarter of 2017 primarily due to the presentation of transactional fees on a gross basis versus net basis (see Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion).

| • | International. Film rentals and advertising costs were $45.0 million ($55.5 million in constant currency), or 47.7% of admissions revenues, for the third quarter of 2018 compared to $54.7 million, or 48.5% of admissions revenues, for the third quarter of 2017. Concession supplies expense was $11.5 million ($13.7 million in constant currency), or 20.5% of concession revenues, for the third quarter of 2018 compared to $14.0 million, or 21.3% of concession revenues, for the third quarter of 2017.

Salaries and wages decreased to $19.3 million (increased to $24.0 million in constant currency) for the third quarter of 2018 compared to $22.7 million for the third quarter of 2017. The as reported decrease was due to the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate, partially offset by increased local currency wages that were primarily driven by inflation, new theatres and limited flexibility in scheduling staff caused by shifting government regulations. Facility lease expense decreased to $19.5 million (increased to $23.1 million in constant currency) for the third quarter of 2018 compared to $22.2 million for the third quarter of 2017. The as reported decrease was due to lower percentage rent due to the decline in revenues and the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate, partially offset by an increase in base rent due to new theatres. Utilities and other costs increased to $29.9 million (increased to $36.8 million in constant currency) for the third quarter of 2018 compared to $28.4 million for the third quarter of 2017. The as reported increase was primarily due to the presentation of transactional fees on a gross basis versus net basis (see Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion).

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased to $38.3 million for the third quarter of 2018 from $36.9 million for the third quarter of 2017. The increase was primarily due to higher salaries and insurance costs, partially offset by the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense increased to $64.9 million during the third quarter of 2018 compared to $58.1 million during the third quarter of 2017. The increase was primarily due to theatre remodels and new theatres.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. We recorded asset impairment charges on assets held and used of $1.6 million during the third quarter of 2018 compared to $5.0 million during the third quarter of 2017. 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 2018 impacted six of our twenty-seven reporting units. See Note 11 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Loss on Disposal of Assets and Other. We recorded a loss on disposal of assets and other of $7.9 million during the third quarter of 2018 compared to $8.6 million during the third quarter of 2017. Activity for the third quarter of 2018 and 2017 was primarily due to the retirement of assets related to theatre remodels.

Interest Expense. Interest costs incurred, including amortization of debt issue costs, were $27.1 million during the third quarter of 2018 compared to $26.3 million during the third quarter of 2017. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the variable rate at which our term loan accrues interest.

Distributions from NCM. We recorded distributions from NCM of $2.4 million during the third quarter of 2018 compared to $2.1 million recorded during the third quarter of 2017, which were in excess of the carrying value of our Tranche 1 investment. See Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

30

Interest expense – NCM. We recorded non-cash interest expense of $5.0 million for the third quarter of 2018 related to the significant financing component associ ated with certain of our agreements with NCM. See Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

Equity in Income of Affiliates. We recorded equity in income of affiliates of $14.2 million during the third quarter of 2018 compared to $10.9 million during the third quarter of 2017. See Notes 7 and 8 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for information about our equity investments.

Income Taxes. Income tax expense of $16.2 million was recorded for the third quarter of 2018 compared to $24.6 million recorded for the third quarter of 2017. The effective tax rate was approximately 24.2% for the third quarter of 2018 compared to 39.0% for the third quarter of 2017. The effective tax rate in 2018 benefited from a lower U.S. federal tax rate. On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Tax Act"). The Tax Act made changes to the U.S. tax code, which included (1) reduced U.S. corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent, (2) generally eliminated U.S. federal income taxes on dividends from foreign subsidiaries, and (3) a one-time transition tax on certain undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries.

As of September 30, 2018, the amounts recorded for the Tax Act pertaining to the transition tax impact for 2017 are final, however, the transition tax impact for 2018 remains provisional. The amounts recorded for the re-measurement of net deferred taxes, and our reassessment of valuation allowances remain provisional. These estimates may be impacted by further analysis due to future clarification and guidance regarding earnings and profits computations, state tax conformity to federal tax changes, and potential tax planning options under consideration.

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.

Nine months ended September 30, 2018 versus September 30, 2017

Revenues. Total revenues increased $181.6 million to $2,423.2 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 (“2018 period”) from $2,241.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 (“2017 period”), representing a 8.1% increase. The table below, presented by reportable operating segment, summarizes our revenue performance and certain key performance indicators for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017.

(1) | Revenues and attendance amounts in millions. Average ticket price is calculated as admissions revenues divided by attendance. Concession revenues per patron is calculated as concession revenues divided by attendance.

(2) | U.S. operating segment revenues include eliminations of intercompany transactions with the international operating segment. See Note 15 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

(3) | Constant currency revenue amounts, which are non-GAAP measurements, were calculated using the average exchange rate for the corresponding month for 2017. We translate the results of our international operating segment from local currencies into U.S. dollars using currency rates in effect at different points in time in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Significant changes in foreign exchange rates from one period to the next can result in meaningful variations in reported results. We are providing constant currency amounts for our international operating segment to present a period-to-period comparison of business performance that excludes the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

| • | U.S. Admissions revenues grew $88.0 million primarily due to a 6.8% increase in attendance and a 1.9% increase in average ticket price. The growth in attendance was due to the increased number of blockbuster films in the 2018 period compared to the 2017 period as well as the favorable impact of luxury lounger conversions. Average ticket price growth was primarily due to price increases. Concession revenues grew $79.1 million primarily due to the 6.8% increase in attendance and a 6.2% increase in concession revenues per patron. The increase in concession revenues per patron was primarily due to price increases, incremental sales and continued expansion of concession offerings. Other revenues increased $81.1 million primarily due to the impact of changes in revenue recognition as discussed in Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

31

| • | International. Admissions revenues decreased $50.4 million as reported primarily due to a 6.3% decrease in attendance and an 8.6% decrease in average ticket price. Admissions revenues decre ased $12.3 million in constant currency. Concession revenues decreased $25.5 million as reported primarily due to the 6.3% decrease in attendance and a 7.4% decrease in concession revenues per patron. Concession revenues decreased $6.7 million in constant currency. The decrease in attendance was driven by weaker consumer appeal of the film slate during the 2018 period compared to the 2017 period. Average ticket price and concession revenues per patron decreased, as reported, primarily due to the impact o f changes in foreign currency exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate. Other revenues increased $9.3 million primarily due to incremental screen advertising revenues as well as the impact of changes in revenue recognition as discussed in N ote 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Cost of Operations. The table below summarizes our theatre operating costs (in millions) by reportable operating segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017.

|  | U.S. Operating Segment |  |  | International Operating Segment |  |  | Consolidated |
|  | 2018 |  |  | 2017 |  |  | 2018 |  |  | 2017 |  |  | Constant Currency (1) 2018 |  |  | 2018 |  |  | 2017 |
Film rentals and advertising |  | $ | 616.7 |  |  | $ | 558.3 |  |  | $ | 141.5 |  |  | $ | 167.3 |  |  | $ | 160.0 |  |  | $ | 758.2 |  |  | $ | 725.6 |
Concession supplies |  | $ | 98.1 |  |  | $ | 82.1 |  |  | $ | 36.5 |  |  | $ | 42.0 |  |  | $ | 40.5 |  |  | $ | 134.6 |  |  | $ | 124.1 |
Salaries and wages |  | $ | 224.3 |  |  | $ | 194.5 |  |  | $ | 61.7 |  |  | $ | 66.8 |  |  | $ | 70.7 |  |  | $ | 286.0 |  |  | $ | 261.3 |
Facility lease expense |  | $ | 183.1 |  |  | $ | 181.1 |  |  | $ | 60.8 |  |  | $ | 67.5 |  |  | $ | 66.9 |  |  | $ | 243.9 |  |  | $ | 248.6 |
Utilities and other |  | $ | 245.7 |  |  | $ | 185.1 |  |  | $ | 92.2 |  |  | $ | 86.7 |  |  | $ | 104.9 |  |  | $ | 337.9 |  |  | $ | 271.8 |

(1) | Constant currency expense amounts, which are non-GAAP measurements were calculated using the average exchange rate for the corresponding month for 2017. We translate the results of our international operating segment from local currencies into U.S. dollars using currency rates in effect at different points in time in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Significant changes in foreign exchange rates from one period to the next can result in meaningful variations in reported results. We are providing constant currency amounts for our international operating segment to present a period-to-period comparison of business performance that excludes the impact of foreign currency fluctuations.

| • | U.S. Film rentals and advertising costs were $616.7 million, or 56.5% of admissions revenues, for the 2018 period compared to $558.3 million, or 55.6% of admissions revenues, for the 2017 period. The increase in the film rentals and advertising rate was primarily due to the relative contribution of blockbuster films to overall box office during the 2018 period. The 2018 period included such blockbuster releases as Black Panther, Avengers: Infinity War, Incredibles 2, Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom and Deadpool 2, which grossed in excess of $700 million, $650 million, $600 million, $400 million and $300 million, respectively, for the period. Concession supplies expense was $98.1 million, or 14.8% of concession revenues, for the 2018 period compared to $82.1 million, or 14.1% of concession revenues, for the 2017 period. The increase in the concessions supplies rate was primarily due to expanded concession offerings.

Salaries and wages increased to $224.3 million for the 2018 period from $194.5 million for the 2017 period primarily due to increased staffing levels to support the increased attendance and expanded concession offerings, staffing at new and recently remodeled theatres, as well as increases in minimum and other wage rates. Facility lease expense increased to $183.1 million for the 2018 period from $181.1 million for the 2017 period primarily due to higher percentage rent due to the increase in revenues. Utilities and other costs increased to $245.7 million for the 2018 period from $185.1 million for the 2017 period primarily due to the presentation of transactional fees on a gross basis versus net basis (see Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion).

| • | International. Film rentals and advertising costs were $141.5 million ($160.0 million in constant currency), or 47.5% of admissions revenues, for the 2018 period compared to $167.3 million, or 48.1% of admissions revenues, for the 2017 period. Concession supplies expense was $36.5 million ($40.5 million in constant currency), or 21.5% of concession revenues, for the 2018 period compared to $42.0 million, or 21.5% of concession revenues, for the 2017 period.

Salaries and wages decreased to $61.7 million (increased to $70.7 million in constant currency) for the 2018 period compared to $66.8 million for the 2017 period. The as reported decrease was due to the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate, partially offset by increased local currency wages that were primarily driven by inflation, new theatres and limited flexibility in scheduling staff caused by shifting government regulations. Facility lease expense decreased to $60.8 million ($66.9 million in constant currency) for the 2018 period compared to $67.5 million for the 2017 period. The as reported decrease was due to the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate and lower percentage rent due to the decline in revenues, partially offset by an increase in base rent due to new theatres. Utilities and other costs increased to $92.2 million ($104.9 million in constant currency) for the 2018 period compared to $86.7 million for the 2017 period. The as reported increase was primarily due to the presentation of transactional fees on a gross basis versus net basis (see Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion).

32

General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased to $123.7 million for the 2018 period from $113.0 million for the 2017 period. The increase was primarily due to higher salaries, insurance costs, benefits costs and professional fees.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense increased to $193.6 million during the 2018 period compared to $174.5 million during the 2017 period. The increase was primarily due to theatre remodels and new theatres.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. We recorded asset impairment charges on assets held and used of $5.0 million during the 2018 period compared to $9.6 million during the 2017 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 2018 period impacted 8 of our twenty-seven reporting units. See Note 11 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Loss on Disposal of Assets and Other. We recorded a loss on disposal of assets and other of $28.7 million during the 2018 period compared to $9.5 million during the 2017 period. Activity for the 2018 period was primarily due to the retirement of assets related to theatre remodels and the accrual of a reserve for outstanding litigation (see Note 17 to the condensed consolidated financial statements). Activity for the 2017 period was primarily due to the retirement of assets related to theatre remodels, partially offset by gains related to the sale of excess land parcels and a gain on a landlord buyout of a theatre lease.

Interest Expense. Interest costs incurred, including amortization of debt issue costs, were $82.7 million during the 2018 period compared to $79.2 million during the 2017 period. The increase was primarily due to an increase in the variable rate at which our term loan accrues interest.

Loss on Debt Amendments and Refinancing. We recorded a loss on debt amendments and refinancing of $1.5 million for the 2018 period compared to $0.2 million for the 2017 period related to amendments to our senior secured credit facility. See Note 5 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

Distributions from NCM. We recorded distributions from NCM of $12.2 million during the 2018 period compared to $11.7 million recorded during the 2017 period, which were in excess of the carrying value of our Tranche 1 investment. See Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Interest expense – NCM. We recorded non-cash interest expense of $14.9 million for the 2018 period related to the significant financing component associated with certain of our agreements with NCM. See Note 3 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion.

Equity in Income of Affiliates. We recorded equity in income of affiliates of $29.2 million during the 2018 period compared to $26.8 million during the 2017 period. See Notes 7 and 8 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for information about our equity investments.

Income Taxes. Income tax expense of $59.6 million was recorded for the 2018 period compared to $98.5 million recorded for the 2017 period. The effective tax rate was approximately 23.4% for the 2018 period compared to 36.6% for the 2017 period. The effective tax rate in 2018 benefited from a lower U.S. federal tax rate. On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the "Tax Act"). The Tax Act made changes to the U.S. tax code, which included (1) reduced U.S. corporate tax rate from 35 percent to 21 percent, (2) generally eliminated U.S. federal income taxes on dividends from foreign subsidiaries, and (3) a one-time transition tax on certain undistributed earnings of foreign subsidiaries. Additionally, the Company recorded a benefit to tax expense of $7.1 million for the 2018 period related to the settlement of audits in the non-U.S. tax jurisdiction of Chile.

As of September 30, 2018, the amounts recorded for the Tax Act pertaining to the transition tax impact for 2017 are final, however, the transition tax impact for 2018 remains provisional. The amounts recorded for the re-measurement of net deferred taxes, and our reassessment of valuation allowances remain provisional. These estimates may be impacted by further analysis due to future clarification and guidance regarding earnings and profits computations, state tax conformity to federal tax changes, and potential tax planning options under consideration.

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 $350.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $311.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to the increase in net income.

Investing Activities

Our investing activities have been principally related to the development, remodel 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 senior secured credit facility. Cash used for investing activities was $352.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $290.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The increase was primarily due to the $78.4 million acquisition of NCM common units (see Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussion).

Capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 were as follows (in millions):

Period |  | New Theatres |  |  | Existing Theatres (1) |  |  | Total |
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2018 |  | $ | 52.5 |  |  | $ | 193.5 |  |  | $ | 246.0 |
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2017 |  | $ | 42.5 |  |  | $ | 220.2 |  |  | $ | 262.7 |

| (1) | The amounts for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017 include $5.9 million and $5.7 million, respectively, related to the remodel of our corporate headquarters building in Plano, TX.

Capital expenditures for existing properties in the table above includes the costs of remodeling certain of our existing theatres to include Luxury Loungers and expanded concession offerings. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018 and 2017, we had an average of 79 and 151 of our domestic screens, respectively, temporarily closed for such remodels.

Our U.S. theatre circuit consisted of 340 theatres with 4,579 screens at September 30, 2018. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we built two new theatres and 25 screens and closed one theatre with seven screens. At September 30, 2018, we had signed commitments to open two screens in domestic markets during the remainder of 2018 and open 12 new theatres with 124 screens subsequent to 2018. We estimate the remaining capital expenditures for the development of these 126 domestic screens will be approximately $95 million.

Our international theatre circuit consisted of 201 theatres with 1,435 screens at September 30, 2018. During the nine months ended September 30, 2018, we built four theatres and 20 screens, acquired three theatres and 19 screens and closed 2 screens. At September 30, 2018, we had signed commitments to open five new theatres and 33 screens in international markets during the remainder of 2018 and open eight new theatres and 67 screens subsequent to 2018. We estimate the remaining capital expenditures for the development of these 100 international screens will be approximately $50 million.

Actual expenditures for continued theatre development, remodels 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 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 $144.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2018 compared to $114.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2017. The increase was primarily due to the increase in the quarterly cash dividend from $0.29 to $0.32 per share of common stock and the payment of debt issuance costs associated with the amendment of our senior secured credit facility (see Note 5 to our 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 balance,

34

anticipated cash needs, overall financial condition, loan agreement restrictions as discussed below, future prospects for earnings an d 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, 2018 (in millions):

Cinemark USA, Inc. term loan |  | $ | 654.6 |
Cinemark USA, Inc. 5.125% senior notes due 2022 |  |  | 400.0 |
Cinemark USA, Inc. 4.875% senior notes due 2023 |  |  | 755.0 |
Other |  |  | 2.8 |
Total long-term debt |  | $ | 1,812.4 |
Less current portion |  |  | 8.0 |
Subtotal long-term debt, less current portion |  | $ | 1,804.4 |
Less: Debt discounts and debt issuance costs, net of accumulated amortization |  |  | 29.9 |
Long-term debt, less current portion, net of debt issuance costs |  | $ | 1,774.5 |

As of September 30, 2018, Cinemark USA, Inc. had $100.0 million in available borrowing capacity on its revolving credit line.

Contractual Obligations

In March 2018, Cinemark USA, Inc. amended its senior secured credit facility, which extended the maturity of the term loan to March 2025. Included below is an updated summary of long-term debt obligations and related estimated scheduled interest payment obligations as of September 30, 2018, reflecting the amended agreement.

|  | Payments Due by Period |
|  | (in millions) |
|  |  |  |  |  | Less Than |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  |  | After |
Contractual Obligations |  | Total |  |  | One Year |  |  | 1 - 3 Years |  |  | 3 - 5 Years |  |  | 5 Years |

| (1) | Amounts are presented before adjusting for debt issuance costs.

| (2) | Amounts include scheduled interest payments on fixed rate and variable rate debt agreements. Estimates for the variable rate interest payments were based on interest rates in effect on September 30, 2018. The average interest rates in effect on our fixed rate and variable rate debt are 5.0% and 4.0%, respectively, as of September 30, 2018.

There have been no other 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, 2017 filed February 23, 2018.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Other than operating leases and purchase commitments disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017 filed February 23, 2018, we do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements.

Senior Secured Credit Facility

Cinemark USA, Inc. has a senior secured credit facility that includes a $700.0 million term loan, with a maturity date of March 2025, and a $100.0 million revolving credit line, with a maturity date of December 2022 (collectively referred to as the “Credit Agreement”).

On March 29, 2018, Cinemark USA, Inc., amended the Credit Agreement to extend the maturity of the term loan to March 29, 2025, reduce the rate at which the term loan bears interest by 0.25% and to reduce the amount of real property required to be mortgaged to secure the loans. Under the amended Credit Agreement, quarterly principal payments of $1.6 million are due on the term loan through December 31, 2024, with a final principal payment of $613.4 million due on March 29, 2025.

Interest on the term loan accrues at Cinemark USA, Inc.’s option at: (A) the base rate equal to the greater of (1) the US “Prime Rate” as quoted in The Wall Street Journal or if no such rate is quoted therein, in a Federal Reserve Board statistical release, (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%, and (3) a one-month Eurodollar-based rate plus 1.0%, plus, in each case, a margin of 0.75%

35

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

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

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

The dividend restriction contained in the Credit Agreement prevents the Company and any of its subsidiaries from paying a dividend or otherwise distributing cash to its stockholders unless (1) the Company is not in default, and the distribution would not cause Cinemark USA, Inc. to be in default, under the Credit Agreement; and (2) the aggregate amount of certain dividends, distributions, investments, redemptions and capital expenditures made since December 18, 2012, including dividends declared by the board of directors, is less than the sum of (a) the aggregate amount of cash and cash equivalents received by Cinemark Holdings, Inc. or Cinemark USA, Inc. as common equity since December 18, 2012, (b) Cinemark USA, Inc.’s consolidated EBITDA minus 1.75 times its consolidated interest expense, each as defined in the Credit Agreement, and (c) certain other defined amounts. As of September 30, 2018, Cinemark USA, Inc. could have distributed up to approximately $2,830.3 million to its parent company and sole stockholder, Cinemark Holdings, Inc., under the terms of the Credit Agreement, subject to its available cash and other borrowing restrictions outlined in the agreement.

At September 30, 2018, there was $654.6 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.

Interest Rate Risk

We are currently party to a variable rate debt facility. An increase or decrease in interest rates would affect our interest expense relating to our variable rate debt. At September 30, 2018, we had an aggregate of approximately $654.6 million of variable rate debt outstanding.
