Revenue From Contract With Customer [Abstract] |
Revenue Recognition | 4. Revenue Recognition The Company’s patrons have the option to purchase movie tickets well in advance of a movie showtime or right before the movie showtime, or at any point in between those two timeframes depending on seat availability. The Company recognizes such admissions revenues when the showtime for a purchased movie ticket has passed. Concession revenues are recognized when sales are made at the registers. Other revenues primarily consist of screen advertising, promotional income, studio trailer placements and transactional fees. The Company sells gift cards and discount ticket vouchers, the proceeds from which are recorded as current liabilities. Revenues for gift cards and discount ticket vouchers are recognized when they are redeemed for movie tickets or concession items. The Company offers a subscription program in the U.S. whereby patrons can pay a monthly fee to receive a monthly credit for use towards a future movie ticket purchase. The Company records the monthly subscription program fees as current liabilities and records admissions revenues when the showtime for a movie ticket purchased with a credit has passed. The Company also has loyalty programs in many of its locations that either have a prepaid annual membership fee or award points to customers as purchases are made. For those loyalty programs that have an annual membership fee, the Company recognizes the fee collected as other revenues on a straight-line basis over the term of the membership. For those loyalty programs that award points to customers based on their purchases, the Company records a portion of the original transaction proceeds as liabilities based on the number of reward points issued to customers and recognizes the deferred revenues when the customer redeems such points. Advances collected on concession and other contracts are deferred and 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. Screen advertising revenues for the U.S. operating segment primarily relate to the ESA with NCM and the Company’s beverage concessionaire agreement. As discussed in Note 3 and Note 8, prior to September 17, 2019, such screen advertising was accounted for under ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, and effective upon the amendment of the ESA, NCM screen advertising was accounted for under ASC Topic 842. See table at Note 8 for screen advertising revenues recorded in other revenue under ASC Topic 606 prior to the amendment of the ESA and under ASC Topic 842 subsequent to the amendment of the ESA. Accounts receivable as of September 30, 2019 included approximately $29,719 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, 2019.
