Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] |
Commitments and Contingencies | 17. Commitments and Contingencies 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, patent claims, landlord-tenant disputes, contractual disputes with landlords over certain termination rights and other 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. Gerardo Rodriguez, individually and on behalf of a class of all others similarly situated vs Cinemark USA, Inc. and Cinemark Holdings, Inc., et al. This class action lawsuit was filed against the Company on February 24, 2023 in the Cook County Circuit Court in Illinois alleging violation of the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act. The Company firmly maintains that the allegations are without merit and will vigorously defend itself against the lawsuit. The Company cannot predict the outcome of this litigation. National CineMedia LLC Bankruptcy. On June 3, 2023, NCM filed an Emergency Motion for Entry of an Order (1) approving and Authorizing Debtor to Enter into and Perform Under (a) the Termination and Settlement Agreement and (b) the Network Affiliate Transaction Agreement with Regal Cinemas, Inc. (the “9019 Motion”). The 9019 Motion requested an order, among other things, that the most favored nations clause (the “MFN”) in Cinemark’s Exhibitor Services Agreement was not triggered by the Network Affiliate Transaction Agreement with Regal Cinemas, Inc. On June 14, 2023, Cinemark filed an objection to the 9019 Motion. On June 26, 2023, the bankruptcy court entered a confirmation order, which among other things, approves NCM’s assumption of Cinemark’s Exhibitor Services Agreement but fails to preserve or recognize Cinemark’s rights under the MFN with respect to the Network Affiliate Transaction Agreement. Cinemark appealed the confirmation order in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division, which affirmed the bankruptcy court's order. The Company appealed the District Court's order with the U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. The U.S. Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed the lower court’s rulings, and the Company has decided not to appeal this ruling. Shane Waldrop, individually and on behalf of all other similarly situated, vs. Cinemark USA, Inc. This putative nationwide class action lawsuit was filed against the Company on April 16, 2024, in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, Sherman Division, alleging violations of the Federal Food Drug & Cosmetics Act, violations of the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act, negligent misrepresentation, fraud and unjust enrichment based on the Company’s alleged mislabeling of twenty-four ounce draft beer cups used at certain theaters. The Company denies the allegations and will vigorously defend itself against the lawsuit. The Company cannot predict the outcome of this litigation. Latishma Narayan, individually and on behalf of others similarly situated vs. Cinemark USA, Inc., Century Theatres, Inc., et al. This class action lawsuit was filed December 27, 2024, in the Superior Court in the State of California for the County of San Mateo alleging violations of the California Labor Code for failure to pay minimum wages, failure to pay wages and overtime, failure to provide meal and rest breaks, failure to pay vacation wages, failure to maintain payroll records, and failure to reimburse necessary expenditures. On July 31, 2025, the court granted Cinemark’s motion to compel arbitration of plaintiff’s claims. Cinemark firmly maintains that the contentions of the plaintiff are without merit and will vigorously defend itself against the lawsuit. The Company cannot predict the outcome of this litigation.
