R EADING INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

﻿

Note 1 – The Company and Basis of Presentation

Reading International, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“RDI” and collectively with our consolidated subsidiaries and corporate predecessors, the “Company,” “Reading” and “we,” “us,” or “our”), was incorporated in 1999, and, following the consummation of a consolidation transaction on December 31, 2001, is now the owner of the consolidated businesses and assets of Reading Entertainment, Inc. (“RDGE”), Craig Corporation (“CRG”) and Citadel Holding Corporation (“CDL”). Our businesses consist primarily of:

| · |  | the development, ownership, and operation of multiplex cinemas in the United States, Australia, and New Zealand; and,

| · |  | the development, ownership, and operation of retail and commercial real estate in Australia, New Zealand, and the United States.

﻿

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto. Significant estimates include projections we make regarding the recoverability of our assets, valuations of our interest rate swaps and the recoverability of our deferred tax assets. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

﻿

Principles of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries as well as majority-owned subsidiaries that the Company controls, and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year-ended December 31, 2015. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. These were prepared in accordance with the U.S. GAAP for interim reporting with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). As such, they do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. We believe that we have included all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim period. Operating results for the quarter and six months ended June 3 0, 2016 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for t he year ending December 31, 2016.

﻿

Reclassifications

C ertain reclassifications have been made in the 2015 comparative information in the consolidated balance sheet s and notes to conform to the 2016 presentation. These changes relate to the adoption of Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2015-03 as discussed more fully below. These reclassifications had no significant impact on our 2015 financial position, results of operations and cash flows as previously reported.

﻿

Recently Adopted and Issued Accounting Pronouncements

﻿

Adopted:

On January 1, 201 6, the Company adopted ASU 2015-03, Interest—Imputation of Interest (Subtopic 835-30): Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”). This new standard, which became effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, required that debt issuance costs be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of debt liability, consistent with debt discounts or premiums. The impact of this adoption included reclassification of the deferred financing costs (net of amortization) from “Other Assets” to a reduction in the associated Debt account.

﻿

Also, on January 1, 2016, the Company adopted ASU 2015-16, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Simplifying the Accounting for Measurement-Period Adjustments. Under this new standard, an acquirer in a business combination transaction must recognize adjustments to provisional amounts that are identified during the measurement period in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined. The effect on earnings of changes in depreciation or amortization, or other income effects, if any, because of the change to the provisional amounts, calculated as if the accounting had been completed as of the acquisition date, must be recorded in the reporting period in which the adjustment amounts are determined rather than retrospectively. The ASU also requires that the acquirer present separately on the face of the income statement, or disclose in the notes, the portion of the amount recorded in current-period earnings by line item that would have been recorded in previous reporting periods if the adjustment to the provisional amounts had been recognized as of the acquisition date. The adoption of this standard will impact the finalization of the purchase price allocation of Cannon Park acquired in December 2015, which we expect to complete during the third quarter of 2016. Please r efer to Note 5 – Property & Equipment for the Cannon Park acquisition discussion.

﻿

7

Issued:

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Compensation—Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting. This new guidance provides simplifications involving several aspects of the accounting for share-based payment transactions, including the income tax consequences (such as excess tax benefits recorded in income tax expense/benefit, rather than additional paid-in capital), classification of awards as either equity or liabilities, and classification on the statement of cash flows. The new standard is effective for the Company on January 1, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. An entity that elects early adoption must adopt all of the amendments in the same period. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this new guidance on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

﻿

In addition, in March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-07, Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures (Topic 323): Simplifying the Transition to the Equity Method of Accounting. This new guidance effectively removes the retroactive application imposed in current guidance when an investment qualifies for use of the equity method as a result of an increase in the level of ownership interest or degree of influence. The amendments require that the equity method investor add the cost of acquiring the additional interest in the investee to the current basis of the investor’s previously held interest and adopt the equity method of accounting as of the date the investment becomes qualified for equity method accounting. The new standard becomes effective for the Company on January 1, 2017. Early adoption is permissible. The Company does not anticipate the adoption of ASU 2015-11 to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures

﻿

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Lea ses (Topic 842). This new guidance establishes a right-of-use ("ROU") model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. The new standard becomes effective for the Company on January 1, 2019. A modified retrospective transition approach is required for lessees for capital and operating leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of the earliest comparative period presented in the financial statements, with certain practical expedients available. The Company is currently assessing the impact of this new guidance on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

﻿

In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606), to achieve a consistent application of revenue recognition within the U.S., resulting in a single revenue model to be applied by reporting companies under U.S. GAAP. Under the new model, recognition of revenues occurs when a customer obtains control of promised goods or services in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, the new standard requires that reporting companies disclose the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. Subsequently, in March 2016, FASB issued ASU 2016-08 to provide guidance on principal versus agent considerations. The new standard becomes effective for the Company on January 1, 2018. Early adoption is permitted but cannot be earlier than January 1, 2017. The new standard is required to be applied retrospectively to each prior reporting period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect of initially applying it recognized at the date of initial application. We have not yet selected a transition method nor have we determined the impact of the new standard on our consolidated condensed financial statements. While we believe the proposed guidance will not have a m aterial impact on our business because our revenue predominantly comes from movie ticket sales and concession purchases, we plan to complete the analysis to ensure that we are in compliance prior to the effective date.

Note 3 – Operations in Foreign Currency

We have significant assets in Australia and New Zealand. To the extent possible, we conduct our Australian and New Zealand operations (collectively “f oreign o perations”) on a self-funding basis where we use cash flows generated by our foreign operations to pay for the expense of foreign operations. O ur Australian and New Zealand assets and liabilities are translated from their function al currencies of Australian dollar (“A U$”) and New Zealand dollar (“NZ$”), respectively, to U.S. dollar based on the excha nge rate as of June 30, 2016. The carrying value of the assets and liabilities of our foreign operations fluctuates as a result of changes in the exchange rates between the functional currencies of the foreign operations and the U.S. dollar. T he translation adjustments are accumulated in the Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Because we intend to conduct bus iness mostly on a self-funding basis (except for funds used to pay a n appropriate share of our U.S. corporate overhead), we do not believe the currency fluctuations present a material risk to the Company. As such, w e do not use derivative financial instruments to hedge against the risk of foreign currency exposure.

Note 4 – Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is calculated by dividing the net income attributable to the Company’s common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is calculated by dividing the net income attributable to the Company’s common stockholders by the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding during the period and are calculated using the treasury stock method for equity-based compensation awards.

﻿

The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted EPS and a reconciliation of the weighted average number of common and common equivalent shares outstanding:

New Corporate Headquarters in Los Angeles

On April 11, 2016, we purchased a 24,000 square foot Class B office building with 72 parking spaces located at 5995 Sepulveda Boulevard in Culver City, California (a Los Angeles suburb) for $11.2 million. We intend to use approximately 50% of the leasable area for our headquarters offices and to lease the remainder to unaffiliated third parties. We anticipate, when the move is complete d at the end of 2016 and the excess space is leased, that we will be able to reduce our headquarters occupancy cost by approximately $350,000 per annum. We are in the process of obtaining a mortgage on this building.

Burwood, Australia

On May 12, 2014, we entered into a contract to sell our undeveloped 50.6 acre parcel in Burwood, Victoria, Australia, to Australand Holdings Limited (now known as Frasers Property Australia) for a purchase price of $49.4 million (AU$65.0 million). We received $5.9 million (AU$6.5 million) on May 23, 2014. The remaining purchase price of $43.5 million (AU$58.5 million) is due on December 31, 2017.

Our book value in the property is $38.7 million (AU$52.1 million) and $38.0 (AU$52.1 million) as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. While the transaction was treated as a sale for tax purposes in 2014, it does not qualify as a sale under US GAAP until the receipt of the payment of the balance of the purchase price due on December 31, 2017 (or earlier depending upon whether any prepay ment obligation is triggered). The asset is classified as long-term land held for sale on the consolidated balance sheets as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

Doheny Condo, Los Angeles

On February 25, 2015, we sold our Los Angeles Condo for $3.0 million resulting in a $2.8 million gain on sale.

Taupo, New Zealand

On April 1, 2015, we entered into two definitive purchase and sale agreements to sell our properties at Taupo, New Zealand for a combined sales price of $2.3 million (NZ$3.4 million). The first agreement related to a property with a sales price of $1.6 million (NZ$2.2 million) and a book value of $1.3 million (NZ$1.8 million), which closed on April 30, 2015 when we received the sales price in full. The other agreement related to a property with a sales price of $831,000 (NZ$1.2 million) and a book value of $426,000 (NZ$615,000) which was completed and for which we received cash settlement representing the full sales price on March 31, 2016. The first transaction qualified as a sale under both U.S. GAAP and tax purposes during t he year-ended December 31, 2015. T he second transaction was recorded as a sale during the three months ended March 31, 2016.

Moonee Ponds, Australia

On October 15, 2013, we entered into a definitive purchase and sale agreement to sell this property for a sales price of $17.5 million (AU$23.0 million) payable in full upon closing of the transaction on April 16, 2015. In accordance with the requirements under U.S. GAAP, we recognized a gain on sale of $8.0 million (AU$10.3 million) in the p r ior-year quarter upon the receipt of sale proceeds on April 16, 2015.

Cannon Park, Queensland, Australia

On December 23, 2015, we completed a 100% acquisition of two adjoining entertainment-themed centers (“ETCs”) in Townsville, Australia for a total of $24.3 million (AU$33.6 million) in cash. The properties are located approximately 6 miles from downtown Townsville, the second largest city in Queensland, Australia. The total gross leasable area of the two adjoining properties, the Cannon Park City Centre and the Cannon Park Discount Centre, is 133,000 square feet. The Cannon Park City Centre is anchored by Reading Cinemas, which is operated by Reading International’s 75% owned subsidiary, Australia Country Cinemas, and has three mini-major tenants and ten specialty family oriented restaurant tenants. The Cannon Park Discount Centre is anchored by Kingpin Bowling and supported by four other retailers. This acquisition is consistent with our business plan to own, where practical, the land underlying our entertainment assets.

The acquired assets consist primarily of the land and buildings, which is approximately 98% leased to existing tenants. Tenancies range from having 9 months to 8 years left to run on their leases at the time of purchase.

11

The total purchase price was allocated to the identifiable assets acquired based on our preliminary estimates of their fair values on the acquisition date. There were no liabilities assumed. As of June 30, 2016, the Company is still finalizing its allocation and this may result in potential adjustments within the 1-year measurement period from acquisition date. The determination of the fair values of the acquired assets (and the related determination of their estimated lives) requires significant judgment. There was no goodwill recorded, as the purchase price did not exceed the fair value estimates of the net acquired assets.

Our preliminary purchase price allocation is as follows:

Goodwill at June 30, 2016 |  | $ | 14,894 |  | $ | 5,224 |  | $ | 20,118

﻿

The Company is required to test goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis and, if current events or circumstances require, on an interim basis. Our next annual evaluation of goodwill and other intangible assets is scheduled for the fourth quarter of 201 6. To test the impairment of goodwill, the Company compares the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying amount, including the goodwill, to determine if there is potential goodwill impairment. A reporting unit is generally one level below the operating segment. As of June 30, 2016, we were not aware of any events that made us believe potential impairment of goodwill had occurred.

The tables below summarize intangible assets other than goodwill as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

Note 9 – Income Tax

The provision for income taxes is different from the amount determined by applying the U.S. federal statutory rate to consolidated income before taxes. The significant differences arise from the difference in foreign tax rates from U.S. tax rates, earnings considered indefinitely reinvested in foreign operations, state taxes, unrecognized tax benefits, and foreign withholding tax on interest. Our effective tax rate was 35.7 % and 17.6 % for the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively. The change between 2016 and 2015 was substantially caused by the reversal in the second quarter of 2015 of our assertion made in prior years that earnings of Australia n subsidiaries are not indefinitely invested in foreign operations.

Cinema 1,2,3 Term Loan and Line of Credit

On June 27, 2016, Sutton Hill Properties LLC, a 75% subsidiary of Reading International Inc., obtained approva l from Santander Bank to extend the maturity of our $15 million mortgage term loan from July 1, 2016 to October 1, 2016. This term extension was not considered substantial in accordance with US GAAP. In conjunction with the extension, our line of credit with Santander Bank amounting to $6.0 million was deactivated effective July 1, 2016. The Company did not make any drawdown against this line of credit. On April 25, 2016, we signed a non-binding agreement with a lender to refinance such loan. The Company expects to have the replacement financing in place b efore the end of the third quarter 2016.

﻿

Bank of America Credit Facility

On March 3, 2016, we amended our $55.0 million credit facility with Bank of America to permit real property acquisition loans. This amendment was subject to the provision that the consolidated leverage ratio would be reduced by 0.25% from the established levels in the credit facility during the period of such borrowing subject further to a repayment of such borrowings on the earlier of the eighteen months from the date of such borrowing or the maturity date of the credit agreement. Such modification was not considered substantial in accordance with US GAAP.

On August 29, 2014, the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) that was effective since March 1, 2007, was ended and replaced with a new pension annuity. As a result of the termination of the SERP program, the accrued pension liability of $7.6 million was reversed and replaced with a new pension annuity liability of $7.5 million. The valuation of the liability is based on the present value of $10.2 million discounted at a rate of 4.25% over a 15- year term, resulting in a monthly payment of $57,000 payable to the Cotter Estate or Cotter Trust (as defined herein). The discount rate of 4.25% has been applied since 2014 to determine the net periodic benefit cost and plan benefit obligation and is expected to be used in future years. The discounted value of $2.7 million (which is the difference between the estimated payout of $10.2 million and the present value of $7.5 million) as of August 29, 2014 will be amortized and expensed based on the 15-year term. In addition, the accumulated actuarial loss of $3.1 million recorded, as part of other comprehensive income will also be amortized based on the 15-year term.

﻿

As a result of the above, included in our current and non-current liabilities are accrued pension costs of $7.9 million at June 30, 2016. The benefits of our pension plans are fully vested and therefore no service costs were recognized for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015. Our pension plans are unfunded. During the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2016, the interest cost was $45,000 and $90,000, respectively, and actuarial loss was $32,000 and $64,000, respectively. During the quarter and six month s ended June 30, 2015, the interest cost was $45,000 and $90,000, respectively, and actuarial loss was $52,000 and $104,000, respectively.

Note 13 – Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation

The STOMP Arbitration

In April 2016, we have received a Final Award in our arbitration with The STOMP Company Limited Partnership, the producer of the show STOMP, currently playing at our Orpheum Theater in New York City for over 20 years. The Final Award awards us $2.3 million in attorney’s fees and costs. The parties are currently negotiating terms for the payment of the Final Award, on a basis that is intended to allow recovery by the Company of the entire Final Award (plus interest at 4%), while at the same time allowing the show to continue playing at our Orpheum Theater. We have filed a confirmation of the arbitral award in New York Supreme Court and will pursue collection if parties are unable to reach an agreement.

Note 15 – Equity and Stock-Based Compensation

Former Executive Stock-Based Compensation

As part of his compensation package, Mr. James J. Cotter, Sr., our now deceased former Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, was granted restricted Class A Non-voting Common Stock (“Class A Stock”) for 2014. Mr. Cotter, Sr.’s stock compensation was granted fully vested with a five-year restriction on sale and the applicable compensation expense was recorded in the year of grant. The 2014 stock grants were issued in the first quarter of 2015.

Employee and Director Stock Option Plan

The Company may grant stock options and other share-based payment awards of our Class A Stock to eligible employees, directors, and consultants under the 2010 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The aggregate total number of shares of the Class A Nonvoting Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Plan is 1,250,000. As of June 30, 2016, we had 551,800 shares remaining for future issuances.

Since the adoption of the Plan in 2010, the Company has granted awards primarily in the form of stock option s. In the 1 st quarter of 2016, the Company started to award restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to directors and certain members of management. Stock options are generally granted at exercise prices equal to the grant-date market prices and typically expire no later than five years from the grant date. In contrast to a stock option where the grantee buys the Company’s share at an exercise price determined on grant date, an RSU entitles the grantee to receive one share for every RSU based on a vesting plan. At the discretion of our Compensation and Stock Options Committee, the vesting period of stock options and RSUs ranges from zero to four years. At the time the options are exercised or RSUs vest, at the discretion of management, we will issue treasury shares or make a new issuance of shares to the option or RSU holder.

18

Stock Options

We estimate the grant-date fair value of our stock options using the Black-Scholes option-valuation model, which takes into account assumptions such as the dividend yield, the risk-free interest rate, the expected stock price volatility, and the expected life of the options. We expense the estimated grant-date fair values of options over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. Based on our historical experience and the relative market price to strike price of the options, we have not hereto estimated any forfeitures of vested or unvested options.

For the six months ended June 30, 2016 and 2015, respectively, the weighted average assumptions used in the option-valuation model were as follows:

﻿

﻿

﻿ |  |  |  |
﻿ | Six Months Ended June 30
﻿ | 2016 |  | 2015
Stock option exercise price | $ | 11.87 | $ | 13.42
Risk-free interest rate |  | 1.20% |  | 2.28%
Expected dividend yield |  | -- |  | --
Expected option life in years |  | 3.75 |  | 4.00
Expected volatility |  | 25.01% |  | 31.87%
Weighted average fair value | $ | 2.49 | $ | 3.82

﻿

For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2016, w e recorded compensation expense of $91,000 and $190,000, respective ly. For the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2015, we recorded compensation expense of $76,000 and $13 3,000, respective ly. At June 30, 2016, the total unrecognized estimated compensation expense related to non-vested stock options was $781,000, which we expect to recognize over a weighted average vesting period of 1.99 years. No stock options were exercised during the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2016. The intrinsic, unrealized value of all options outstanding, vested and expected to vest, at June 30, 2016 was $2.0 million, of which 71.5% are currently exercisable.

The following table summarizes the information of options outstanding and exercisable as of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015:

﻿

Restricted Stock Units

We estimate the grant-date fair values of our RSUs using the Company’s stock price at grant-date and record such fair values as compensation expense over the vesting period on a straight-line basis. In March 2016 and April 2016, RSU awards of 62,528 units and 5,625 units, respectively, were granted to directors and certain members of management. These RSU awards aggregating to 68,153 units remained unvested as of June 30, 2016. These RSU awards vest 25% at the end of each year for 4 years (in the case of members of management) and vest 100% at the end of one year (in the case of directors). During the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2016, w e recognized compensation expense of $129,000 and $1 60,000, respectively. The total unrecognized compensation expense related to these unvested RSUs was $655,000 as of June 30, 2016.

Common Stock Buyback

On May 16, 2014, the Company's board of directors authorized management, at its discretion, to spend up to an aggregate of $10.0 million to acquire shares of Reading’s Common Stock. This approved stock repurchase plan supersedes and effectively cancelled the program that was approved by the board on May 14, 2004, which allowed management to purchase up to 350,000 shares of Reading’s Common Stock.

19

The repurchase program allows Reading to repurchase its shares in accordance with the requirements of the SEC on the open market, in block trades and in privately negotiated transactions, depending on market conditions and other factors. All purchases are subject to the availability of shares at prices that are acceptable to Reading, and accordingly, no assurances can be given as to the timing or number of shares that may ultimately be acquired pursuant to this authorization.

Under this approved buyback program, the Company has repurchased $7.2 million worth of common stock at an average price of $12.92 per share. This leaves $2.8 million available under the May 16, 2014 for repurchase as of June 30, 2016.

﻿

Note 16 – Derivative Instruments

We enter into interest rate derivative instruments to hedge the interest rate risk that results from the characteristics of our floating-rate borrowings. Our use of derivative transactions is intended to reduce long-term fluctuations in cash flows caused by market movements. All derivative instruments are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value with changes in fair value through interest expense in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. As of June 30, 2016, we have not designated any of our derivatives as accounting hed ges.

The Company’s derivative positions measured at fair value are summarized in the following tables:

Note 1 7 – Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The statement requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:

| · |  | Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities

| · |  | Level 2: Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs and significant value drivers are observable in active markets

| · |  | Level 3: Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable

20

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used to estimate the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities. There have been no changes in the methodologies used at June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015.

Level 1 investments in marketable securities primarily consist of investments associated with the ownership of marketable securities in U.S. and New Zealand. These investments are valued based on observable market quotes on the last trading date of the reporting period.

Level 2 derivative financial instruments are valued based on discounted cash flow models that incorporate observable inputs such as interest rates and yield curves from the derivative counterparties. The credit valuation adjustments associated with our non-performance risk and counterparty credit risk are incorporated in the fair value estimates of our derivatives. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, we concluded that the credit valuation adjustments were not significant to the overall valuation of our derivatives.

21

Level 3 borrowings include our secured and unsecured notes payable, trust preferred securities and other debt instruments. The borrowings are valued based on discounted cash flow models that incorporate appropriate market discount rates. We calculated the market discount rate by obtaining period-end treasury rates for fixed-rate debt, or LIBOR for variable-rate debt, for maturities that correspond to the maturities of our debt, adding appropriate credit spreads derived from information obtained from third-party financial institutions. These credit spreads take into account factors such as our credit rate, debt maturity, types of borrowings, and the loan-to-value ratios of the debt.

The Company’s financial instruments also include cash, cash equivalents, receivables and account payable. The carrying values of these financial instruments approximate the fair values. Additionally, there were no transfers of assets and liabilities between levels 1, 2, or 3 during the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2016 and June 30, 2015.

NOTE 18 – Subsequent Events

Update to Stock-Based Compensation

Mr. James Cotter, Jr. has asserted in past communications with the Company that options to acquire 50,000 shares of Class A Stock, issued to him in connection with his retention as the President of our Company, survived his termination as President. We have continued to show these options as outstanding, pending a determination of the issue by our Compensation and Stock Options Committee. On August 3, 2016, our Compensation and Stock Options Committee m et, reviewed the issue and determined that such 50,000 options had in fact terminated with the termination of Mr. Cotter, Jr’s employment as President. Accordingly, these options are not, and have not been since the effective date of Mr. Cotter, Jr’s termination, outstanding and the aggregate currently outstanding options are 582,000.

Updates to the Derivative Litigation

On July 13, 2016, the stockholder plaintiffs in the consolidated derivative cases other than James J. Cotter, Jr. (the “Plaintiff Stockholders) announced the settlement of all of their alleged claims in their previously filed derivative lawsuit in the District Court of the State of Nevada for Clark County. Appropriate papers have now been filed by the parties to effectuate the settl ement. However, the settlement of a derivative suit requires Court approval under Nevada Law. The Settlement Hearing will be held before The Honorable Elizabeth Gonzalez on October 6, 2016 at 8:30 a.m., in the Regional Justice Center, 200 Lewis Avenue, Las Vegas, NV 89155. The settlement agreement negotiated by the parties (the “Settlement Agreement”) provides, among other things, for mutual releases and that the parties will be responsible for their own attorney’s fees and costs. A copy of the Settlement Agreement has been posted on our website at www.ReadingRDI.com. In the joint press release issued by the Company and the Plaintiff Stockholders, representatives of the Plaintiff Stockholders stated as follows: "We are pleased with the conclusions reached by our investigations as Plaintiff Stockholders and now firmly believe that the Reading Board of Directors has and will continue to protect stockholder interests and will continue to work to maximize shareholder value over the long term. We appreciate the Company's willingness to engage in open dialogue and are excited about the Company's prospects. Our questions about the termination of James Cotter, Jr., and various transactions between Reading and members of the Cotter family-or entities they control-have been definitively addressed and put to rest. We are impressed by measures the Reading Board has made over the past year to further strengthen corporate governance. We fully support the Reading Board and management team and their strategy to create stockholder value.”

Subsequently, on August 3, 2016 James J. Cotter Jr., filed a motion with the Court seeking permission to file a “Second Amended Verified Complaint” (the “SAP”). Court approval is required for any such amendment. The Company and each of the Defendant Directors intend to oppose Mr. Cotter, Jr’s motion to amend.

The SAP adds as defendants Directors Judy Codding and Michael Wrotniak It adds additional purported claims including purported claims relating to the selection of Ellen Cotter to serve as our Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, the retention of Margaret Cotter to serve as our Executive Vice President responsible for our live theater operations, the ability of Ellen Cotter and Margaret Cotter to vote 100,000 share of our Class B stock, issued upon the exercise of certain stock options held of record by the Estate of James J. Cotter, Sr., and the management and development of our New York properties and the handling by our Board of Directors of an indication of interest receive d at the end of May relating to the purchase of all of the stock of our Company,

Our press release dated July 18, 2016 described this indication of interest and the Board’s determinations with respect thereto as follows:

“Reading International, Inc. (NASDAQ: RDI) (“Reading” or the “Company”) confirmed today that in June 2016, it rejected an unsolicited, non-binding indication of interest from a third party to acquire all of Reading’s outstanding stock at $17 per share. The non-binding indication of interest, and its rejection, were disclosed last week by Board member James J. Cotter, Jr., in a public filing he made in the derivative litigation in the District Court for Clark County, Nevada.

To clarify the record, our Board of Directors, after receiving input from management and its outside advisors, carefully evaluated the indication of interest. Following this review, the Board of Directors determined that our stockholders would be

22

better served by pursuing our independent, stand-alone strategic business plan and communicated this to the third party. Reading’s Board strongly believed that the proposed transaction was not in the best interest of our Company or our stockholders.

The statements made by Mr. Cotter, Jr. in his litigation filing were not authorized by the Company, do not constitute Company communications, and the Company takes no responsibility for their accuracy. Typically, it is not our practice to disclose unsolicited expression s of interest and Reading undertakes no obligation to further update this disclosure.”

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

We are an internationally diversified company principally focused on the development, ownership, and operation of entertainment and real estate assets in the United States, Australia, and New Zealand. Currently, we operate in two business segments:

| · |  | cinema exhibition, through our 5 7 multiplex cinemas; and

| · |  | real estate, including real estate development and the rental of retail, commercial, and live theater assets.

We believe that these two business segm ents can complement one another, as we can use the comparatively consistent cash flows generated by our cinema operations to fund the front-end cash demands of our real estate development business.

We manage our worldwide cinema exhibition businesses under various different brands:

| · |  | in the US, under the following brands: Reading Cinema, Angelika Film Center, Consolidated Theaters, and City Cinemas;

| · |  | in Australia, under the Reading Cinema brand; and

| · |  | in New Zealand, under the Reading Cinema and Rialto brands.

Cinema Activities

We continue to (i) consider new opportunities to expand our international cinema circuit, (ii) evaluate our existing cinema portfolio to determine ways to maximize profitability through strategic renovations or programming adjustments, and (iii) determine the most efficient ways to dispose of cinemas carrying unacceptable risk profiles on a go-forward basis. To increase attendance and improve our cash flow, our operational strategy has focused on improving the overall experience of the cinema guest through (i) delivering a premium sight and sound cinematic presentation with a filmmaker focus, (i i) installation of recliner seating, (iii) expansion of the quality and variety of our food & beverage menu, (iv) broaden ing the scope of our programming to increase attendance and box office, (v) deliver ing hospitality focused guest service, (vi) engag ing our guests through better design of our cinema spaces, and (vii) improving our interaction on social and electronic media.

As we renovate and reposition our existing cinemas, we intend, where practical, to add beer and wine service and, at some locations, cocktail type beverages. Over the past years, we have obtained liquor licenses for seven U.S. theater locations: (i) both of our Texas locations (Dallas and Plano), (ii) our theater in Fairfax, Virginia, (iii) one in Washington, D.C., (iv) two in San Diego, CA. (Carmel Mountain and Grossmont), and (vi) most recently, our Ward Theater in Hawaii. The latter is the first liquor license granted to a cinema on the island of Oahu. Additionally, we have eight pending applications – f our throughout California, two in Hawaii and one each in New York and New Jersey.

Innovative value pricing, improved food and beverage offerings and proactive social media engagement with our customers was a primary focus and to that end social media has been a powerful tool for connecting with and marketing to customers in real time. We have continued to focus upon our company wide customer service training program with a view to improving staff productivity, the quality of customer interactions and ultimately underpinning an improvement to our per capita transaction spend. Refining and remixing our food and beverage offer ings has been an ongoing initiative with a view to minimizing our cost of sales and improving the inventory blend of our over the counter customer offer ings.

US cinema activities

In October 2015, we reopened our Carmel Mountain theater in San Diego as an Angelika Film Center and Café featuring luxury recliners. Dedicated to exhibiting quality films and events, the sleek and modern Angelika Film Center & Cafe is a unique venue for San Diego’s culturally rich community, offering diverse programming and a creative menu of craft beverages and foods. Each of the 12 elegantly-appointed auditoria at the new Angelika feature full-recliner luxury seats in a stadium setting, pristine digital projection by Barco, the leader in digital cinema technology, Dolby 7.1 sound system, and reserved seating for a leisurely cinematic experience. With state-of-the-art digital presentation capabilities and events specialists, the Angelika is an ideal venue for a range of meetings and events, from corporate presentations to private gatherings. Carmel Mountain has generated over $3.7 million in revenue during the first half of 2016, well ahead of the pre-renovation performance.

The lease entered into on April 17, 2014 with an affiliate of Edens (“EDENS”) providing for the development of a new state-of-the art Angelika Film Center at Union Market in Washington DC has been terminated due to cost and feasibility issues. However, EDENS and the Company continue to discuss the development of a state-of-the art Angelika Film Center in an alternative location within the Union Market district. In the interim, the Angelika Pop Up continues to opera te in the Union Market district.

Reflecting our dedication to providing our guests a premium presentation, the Company entered into its first license agreement with IMAX. The Company converted one auditorium at the cinema at the Valley Plaza Mall in Bakersfield, California to an IMAX

24

presentation in time for the opening of “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” in December 2015. Revenue at Valley Plaza has increased 15% over the same six month period last year, driven by increased attendance and increased average ticket price.

﻿

On January 31, 2016, following our run of “Star Wars: The Force Awakens”, we surrendered our Gaslamp Cinema in San Diego. We paid the landlord a $1.0 million negotiated termination fee, which was less expensive than continuing to operate an unprofitable theater at this location. This cinema was acquired in 2008 as a part of the acquisition of a package of 15 locations from Pacific Theatres. The cinema was, at that time, a substantial money-loser, and the purchase price was calculated taking into account the losses generated by that cinema and the likelihood that such losses would continue into t he future. The losses at Gaslamp for the first half of 2016 have been reduced by $718,000 compared to the same period last year.

﻿

Australia and New Zealand cinema activities

In September 2015, we reopened our completely refurbished Reading Cinemas at Harbourtown Shopping Center on the Gold Coast in Queensland, Australia, which is the largest theater by screen count on the Gold Coast and is a key asset within the group, having entertained more than ten million customers over the past fifteen years. The highlight of this renovation was the inclusion of our premium large format auditorium, TITAN XC (Extreme Cinema), which features a 66-foot wide ‘wall-to-wall’ screen and Dolby Atmos, a fully immersive sound system that is being embraced by leading exhibitors and filmmakers worldwide as the next-generation sound in the cinema. The renovation also included upgrades in the cinema’s affordable luxury ‘dine-in’ cinema, combining a fully licensed lounge bar and a full food menu.

In November 2015, we opened the state-of-the-art Reading Cinemas LynnMall, our first Auckland based Reading Cinemas branded cinema complex, in New Lynn, New Zealand. The new state-of-the-art cinema complex brings Reading’s premium offerings to the newly redeveloped LynnMall Shopping Centre, providing a compelling and convenient movie experience for the Centre’s guests. The highlight of this cinema complex is the newly formatted TITAN XC (Extreme Cinema). To further enhance its position as a leading entertainment destination, we offer two luxury dine-in licensed “Premium Cinema” screens, featuring luxury recliner seating and a full food and beverage menu to provide customers a superior movie going experience. This cinema generated $2.6 million (NZ$3.5 million) of additional revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2016.

Real Estate Activities

In recent periods we have focused our real estate development activities on (i) the disposal of certain assets (Moonee Ponds and Burwood in Australia and Lake Taupo in New Zealand and the Los Angeles Condominium, which we determined to be non-core assets), (ii) the improvement and expansion of our existing ETCs including (a) adding an anchor grocery store tenancy and additional general retail at our Courtenay Central development in Wellington, New Zealand, and (b) addi ng general retail and restaurant space for our RedYard development in Auburn, a suburb of Sydney, Australia, (iii) adding a state-of-the-art cinema and additional general retail to our shopping center in Newmarket, a suburb of Brisbane in Australia, (iv) the redevelopment of our Union Square and Cinemas 1, 2, 3 properties in Manhattan and (v) the procurement of land use entitlements for our landholdings in Coachella, California (202 acres) and Ma nukau, New Zealand (64 acres). The disposal of Taupo properties and the Los Angeles Condo, which were mostly non-income generating assets, has had little impact on our revenue. With the exception of Union Square which has no tenants now due to our re-development plans, our properties scheduled for improvement or expansion continue to perform at or around the same level as previous years.

﻿

Our business plan is to continue with the further development of our operating properties, particularly our Wellington, New Zealand site, Brisbane, Australia site and Sydney, Australia site, to redevelop our Union Square and Cinemas 1, 2, 3 properties in New York, to continue to pursue the various land use entitlements needed for the development of our landholdings in New Zealand and California, and to seek out additional, profitable real estate development opportunities with an existing or potential entertainment focus, while continuing to use and judiciously expand our presence in the cinema exhibition business by identifying, developing, and acquiring cinema properties when and where we believe to be appropriate.

﻿

US real estate activities

We are continuing to advance the development of our Union Square property located in Manhattan. We have (i) received authorization from the Landmarks Preservation Commission and approval for a variance from the Board of Standard and Appeals to develop the BKSK Architects’ design which will add approximately 23,000 square footage of rentable space to the current square footage of the building bringing the approximate total of up to 73,322 square feet of rentable space subject to lease negotiations (inclusive of anticipated BOMA adjustments) and the final tenant mix of retail and office uses, (ii) continue to work with Edifice Real Estate Partners, LLC, to assist in the supervision and administration of the project and an affiliate of CNY for preconstruction services, (iii) retained the real estate brokerage Newmark Grubb Knight Frank to serve as our exclusive marketing agent, and (iv) received demolition and building approval permits by the Department of Building in July 2016. We have begun internal demolition activities at the site. We currently anticipate that construction will be completed by the second quarter of 2018. We are advised by Newmark that retail tenant interest in our property is strong.

﻿

Regarding our Cinemas 1,2,3 property in Manhattan, we have received the consent of the 25% minority member of the entity to the redevelopment of the property. We are evaluating the potential to redevelop the property as a mixed use retail and residential and/or hotel property. Further, we have completed a preliminary feasibility study and are currently in negotiations with the owner of the approximately 2,600 square foot corner parcel adjacent to our Cinemas 1,2,3 property on the corner of 60th Street and 3rd Avenue for the joint development of our properties. A combination of the properties would produce approximately 121,000 square foot of FAR and approximately 140,000 square feet of gross buildable area. No assurances can be given that we will be able to come to terms with the adjacent owner. I n April 2016, we obtained a non-binding commitment from a lender for a $20.0 million loan, the proceeds of which will be used to repay the existing mortgage on the property with the Bank of Santander ($15.0 million), to repay Reading for its $2.9 million loan to Sutton Hill Properties, LLC (the owner of the property), and for working capital purposes. While no assurances can be given, this refinancing is anticipated to close in the third quarter of 2016. This property’s cinema revenues continue to be in line with previous years.

﻿

As discussed in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements above, on April 11, 2016, we purchased for $11.2 million a 24,000 square foot Class B office building with 72 parking spaces located at 5995 Sepulveda Boulevard in Culver City, California. We intend to use approximately 50% of the leasable area for our headquarters offices and to lease the remainder to unaffiliated third parties. We anticipate, when the move is complete and the excess space is leased, we will be able to reduce our headquarters occupancy cost by approximately $350,000 per annum.

﻿

Australia real estate activities

We received Planning Council approval from the city of Brisbane, Australia in June 2015 for the construction of an eight-screen cinema complex with 10,000 square feet of specialty retail to be located below the cinema and additional mezzanine level parking at our existing Newmarket (Brisbane, Australia) shopping center. Construction is expected to commence in the third quarter of 2016, with a projected opening in the fourth quarter of 2017. On November 30, 2015, we acquired an approximately 23,000 square foot parcel adjacent to our tenant, the Coles supermarket, in Newmarket. This property is currently improved with an office building. We intend, over time, to integrate this property into our Newmarket development. This will increase Newmarket’s footprint from approximately 204,000 to approximately 227,000 square feet.

﻿

On December 23, 2015, we acquired two adjoining ETCs in Townsville, Queensland, Australia for a total of $24.3 million (AU$33.6 million) comprising approximately 5.6 acres. The total gross leasable area of the two properties, the Cannon Park City Centre and the Cannon Park Discount Centre, is 133,000 square feet. Our 75%-owned multiplex cinema at the Cannon Park City Centre is the anchor tenant of that center. This acquisition is consistent with our business plan to own, where practical, the land underlying our entertainment assets. We will be operating these two properties as a single ETC. These sites have added an additional $1.4 million (AU$1.9 million) of revenue to our real estate segment for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2015.

﻿

On May 12, 2014, we entered into a contract to sell our undeveloped 50.6 acre parcel in Burwood, Victoria, Australia, to Australand Holdings Limited (now known as Frasers Property Australia) for a purchase price of $49.4 million (AU$65.0 million). We received $5.9 million (AU$6.5 million) on May 23, 2014. The remaining purchase price of $43.5 million (AU$58.5 million) is due on December 31, 2017. The agreement provides for mandatory pre-payments in the event that any of the land is sold by the buyer, any such prepayment being in an amount equal to the greater of (a) 90% of the net sales price or (b) the balance of the purchase price multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the square footage of property being sold by the buyer and the denominator of which is the original square footage of the property being sold to the buyer. The agreement does not provide for the payment of interest on the balance owed. The buyer has informed us that it is under contract to sell a portion of this property and a potential prepay ment of approximately 90% of $18.6 million (AU$25 million) is possible in 2016.

﻿

New Zealand real estate activities

We received town planning approval in May 2015 from the Wellingt on City Council for a $12.1 million (NZ$17.0 million) supermarket development project at our Courtenay Central ETC (Wellington, New Zealand). Currently, we continue to progress the addition of an approximately 36,000 square foot supermarket and approximately 4,000 square feet of general retail space. The agreement to lease the supermarket has been signed, all parties have approved construction budgets for the supermarket, and we anticipate beginning construction in third quarter of this year and occupancy by the fourth quarter 2017. We are currently upgrading our parking structure that is designed to have superior structural protection against earthquake damage. W e believe this will give us a competitive advantage not only in terms of parking but also as an amenity to our shopping center and cinema. While some tenancies have been disrupted by the redevelopment work, these have been offset by the arrival of a new major tenant. Both the cinema and the real estate activity continue to operate in line with prior years.

﻿

In July 2016, the independent land use panel reviewing certain proposed land use changes impacting our 64 acre property in Manukau, New Zealand recommended to the Auckland City Council that our property be up zoned from its existing agricultural to light industr ial uses. 6.4 acres of our Manu kau property has already been zoned as a light industrial land. The recommendation on the 64 acres of agricultural land is currently scheduled for action by the Auckland City Council on August 19, 2016. Light industrial uses

26

include certain manufacturing, production, logistic, transportation, warehouse and wholesale distribution activities and, on an ancillary basis, certain office, retail and educational uses.

Consolidated Results and Non-Segment Results

Quarter Results:

Revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 decreased by 8%, or $5.9 million, to $66.9 million and net income attributable to RDI common stockholders decreased by 81%, or $13.0 m illion, to $3.0 million. EPS for the quarter ended June 30, 2016 decreased by $0.56 to $0.13 from the prior-year three-month period. In the quarter ended June 30, 2015, EPS benefited by $0.35 from the one-time gain on sale of investment property. The 2016 U.S. and Australian box office and concession revenue s ha ve been weaker than 2015 primarily as a reflection of market performance in 2016, which was compounded by the weakening of the Australia n dollar against the

28

U.S. dollar. Our New Zealand operations ha ve benefited from the strong performance of our new LynnMall cinema which opened in November 2015, reduced only by the weakening of the average exchange rate.

General and administrative expense (non-segment)

General and administrative exp ense for the three-month period ended June 30, 2016 compared to the same period of the prior year increased by 17%, or $699,000. Significant elements of this increase were higher legal expenses of $220,000, expenses paid in connection with the 2015 year-end audit of $271,000 and public relations and other consulting expenses of $112,000. We do not expect the additional expenses incurred in connection with the 2015 year-end audit to recur. For more information about the legal expense, please refer to Item 1- Legal Proceedings in Part II of this document.

Interest expense, net

Interest expense for the three months ended June 30, 2016 decreased by 8%, or $147,000, to $1.8 million, and interest income for the same period decreased by $308,000. The decrease in interest expense is a result of the reduction in average interest rates from 4.02% during the three-months ended June 30, 2015 to 3.64% during the three-months ended June 30, 2016, or a 9% rate reduction. This was partially offset by the net increase in loan balance of $8.4 million from March 31, 2016 mainly relating to the acquisition of the new corporate headquarters in Los Angeles. The higher interest income in 2015 was due to significant cash balance of $69.6 million as of June 30, 2015, which has been subsequently used to finance capital expenditures.

Gain on sale of assets

Net gain on sale of assets for the three-month period ended June 30, 2015 amounting to $8.2 million pertained to the sale of Moonee Ponds in Australia and the first of the two sale agreements for our Taupo Property in New Zealand. There was no similar transaction in the three-month period ended June 30, 2016.

﻿

Six-Month Results:

Revenue for the six-month period decreased by 1%, or $1.7 million, to $131.7 million and net income attributable to RDI common stockholders decreased by 73%, or $13.9 million, to $5.2 million. EPS for the six months ended June 30, 2016 decreased by $0.60 to $0.22 from the prior-year six-month period, mainly attributable to the one-time gain on sale of investment properties benefitting EPS by $0.47 in 2015 and weaker average foreign exchange rates for our Australian and New Zealand operations in 2016 compared to 2015.

General and administrative expense (non-segment)

General and administrative expense for the six months ended June 30, 2016 compared the same period a year ago increased by 31%, or $ 2.4 million. This increase was related to higher legal expenses of $733,000, additional expenses incurred in connection with the 2015 year-end audit of $771,000, expenses incurred in connection with the status of certain executives of $400,000, public relations and other consulting fees of $284,000. We do not expect that the additional expenses incurred in connection with the year-end audit and the expenses connected with the change in status of certain executives to recur. For more information about the legal expense, please refer to Item 1- Legal Proceedings in Part II of this document.

Interest expense, net

Interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2016 decreased by 21%, or $1.0 million, to $3.7 million, and interest income for the same period decreased by $466,000. The significant decrease in interest expense is a result of the following two factors: (i) average interest rates reduced from 4.05% during the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 to 3.6 0% during the six-month period ended June 30, 2016, or an 11% rate reduction, and (ii) average loan balance reduced by $23.3 million, from an average loan balance of $157.5 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2015 to $134.3 million during the same period in 2016. The net de crease in average loan balance mainly relates to the $32.0 million reduction in our loan facilities in Australia and New Zealand, offset by the net additional borrowings in the U.S. of almost $8.7 million, which was used to fund the acquisition of the new corporate headquarters in Los Angeles. The higher interest income in 2015 was due to significant cash balance of almost $69.6 million as of June 30, 2015, which has been subsequently used to finance capital expenditures.

Gain on sale of assets

Net gain on sale of assets for the six-month period decreased by $10.6 million, primarily due to the following sale transactions resulting to gains realized in 2015: (i) the sale of our Doheny Condo in Los Angeles r esulting in a $2.8 million gain during Q1 2015, (ii) the closing of the sale of Moonee Ponds in Australia for a gain of $8.0 million (AU$10.3 million) during Q2 2015 and (iii) the gain on the first of the two sale agreements for our Taupo Property in New Ze aland in the amount of $246,000 (NZ$353,000) during Q2

29

2015, compared to the gain from the final closing of the second sale agreement of the Taupo property in New Zealand in the amount of $393,000 (NZ$585,000) realized in Q1 2016.

Income tax expense

Income taxes decreased by 29%, or $1.2 million compared to the prior-year six-month period, mainly due to the reduction in taxable income.

The Company transacts business in Australia and New Zealand and is subject to risks associated with changing foreign currency exchange rates. The Australian and New Zealand dollar both weakened against US Dollar by 4% and 6%, respectively, comparing the average exchange rate movements during the second quarter of 2016 to those during the same period of 2015. Comparing the first half of 2016 to the same period of 2015, the Australian and New Zealand dollar both weakened against the U.S. dollars by 6% and 9%, respectively. Refer to Note 3 – Operations in Foreign Currency for further information.

C inema segment operating income de creased by 27%, or $3.4 million, to $9.1 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2016 compared to June 30, 2015, primarily driven by lower admissions and concessions revenue due to weaker film slate from the industry’s major studios, as well as weaker foreign exchange average rates for Australian and New Zealand operations. Refer below for further detailed explanation.

Revenue

Cinema revenue de creased by 8%, or $5.5 million, to $63.4 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2016 compared to June 30, 2015, primarily attributable to lower attendance in the U nited States and Australia due to weaker film slate from the industry’s major studios, compounded by the unfavorable impact from the foreign exchange average rate movements. Comparing the three months period of the current year and prior year, Australia n dollars and New Zealand dollars weakened against U.S. dollars by 4% and 6% (on average rates), respectively.

Reflective of the industry’s box office decline due to weaker film slate from the major studios, the three-month revenue in the United States decreased by 5%, or $1.8 million, primarily driven by lower attendance resulting in reduced admissions and concessions revenue. The US cinema revenues were also impacted by the closure of the Gaslamp cinema in San Diego. Similarly, Australia’s cinema revenue decreased by 17%, or $4.5 million, primarily due to a weaker film slate from the major studios compared to the record setting box office of 2015 and the unfavorable impact from foreign exchange average rate movements. When expressed in local currency, Australian cinema revenues de creased by 14%, or AU$4.7 m illion. In New Zealand, cinema revenue increased by 1 2%, or $8 36,000, mainly due to higher admission revenue and higher concession revenue as result of higher attendance and the opening of our LynnMall cinema in November 2015, partially offset by unfavorable impact from foreign exchange average rate movements. When expressed in local currency, New Zealand c inema operations increased by 19%, or NZ$1.9 million. The New Zealand exhibition market benefited from the most successful local film release of all time, “Hunt for the Wilderpeople”.

31

Operating expense

Operating expense for the three-month ended June 30, 2016 decreased by 4%, or $2.3 million, mainly attributable to lower film rent and advertising cost s and the favorable impact from foreign exchange average movements, partially offset by the opening of the new Lynn Mall cinema in New Zealand.

Operating expense as a percentage of gross revenue increased by 3% to 80%, mainly attributable to the percentage of fixed costs compared to the change in our revenue streams.

Depreciation, amortization, general and administrative expense

Depreciation, amortization, general and administrative expense for the three-month ended June 30, 2016 increased by 6%, or $196,000, primarily driven by an increase in depreciation resulting from improvements in our Carmel Mountain cinema and our new LynnMall cinema.

﻿

Six Months Results:

Segment operating income

C inema segment operating income de creased by 11%, or $2.1 million, to $1 6.8 million for the six month s ended June 30, 2016 compared to June 30, 2015, primarily driven by lower admissions revenue, as well as weaker foreign exchange average rates for Australian and New Zealand operations. Q1 2016 was a record first quarter for the Company. Q2 2015 was the highest quarterly result in the Company’s history. While Q2 2016 did not reach the level achieved in 2015, it is worth noting that our results were comparable with industry performance. Refer below for further detailed explanation.

Revenue

Cinema revenue decreased by 1%, or $1.1 million, to $124.8 million for the six month s ended June 30, 2016 compared to June 30, 2015, primarily attributable to lower admissions revenue for Australia, compounded by the unfavorable impact from the foreign exchange average rate movements for our Australian and New Zealand operations. Comparing the six months period of the current year and prior year, Australia dollars and New Zealand dollars weakened against U.S. dollars by 6% and 9% (on average rates), respectively.

The six-month revenue for the period ended June 30, 2016 in the United States slightly increased by 4%, or $2.4 million, to $67.1 million driven by a higher average admission price and increased admissions and concessions revenue during Q1 2016. Australia cinema revenue decreased by 11%, or $5.2 million, to $43.4 million primarily due to a weaker film slate from the major studios compared to the record setting box office of 2015 and the unfavorable impact from foreign exchange average rate movements. When expressed in local currency, Australian cinema revenues de creased by 5%, or AU$2.9 m illion. In New Zealand, cinema reven ue increased by 14%, or $1.7 million, to $14.3 million mainly due to higher admission and concession revenue s as result of higher attendance and the opening of our LynnMall cinema in November 2015, partially offset by unfavorable impact from foreign exchange average rate movements. When expressed in local currency, New Zealand cinema operations increased by 25%, or NZ$4.2 million. The New Zealand exhibition market benefited from the most successful local film release of all time, “Hunt for the Wilderpeople”.

Operating expense

Operating expense for the six-month period ended June 30, 2016 remained stable at around $100.0 million despite increases in the functional currency costs and the opening of the new LynnMall cinema in New Zealand due to offsetting favorable impact from foreign exchange average movements.

Operating expense as a percentage of gross revenue increased slightly by 1% to 80%, mainly attributable to the percentage of fixed costs compared to the change in our revenue streams.

Depreciation, amortization, general and administrative expense

Depreciation, amortization, general and administrative expense for the six-month period increased by 5%, or $386,000, to $7.6 million primarily driven by an increase in depreciation resulting from improvements in our Angelika Carmel Mountain cinema and our new LynnMall cinema.

BUSINESS PLAN, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Business p lan

Our cinema exhibition business plan is to continue to identify, develop, and acquire cinema properties, where reasonably available, that allow us to leverage our cinema expertise and technology over a larger operating base. In addition, we are refurbishing our cinema properties where feasible, and adding (1) premium projection and sound presentation, (2) recliner seating when appropriate, and (3) enhanced food and beverage options when possible.

Our real estate business plan is to re-develop our existing property assets, to be sensitive to opportunities to convert our entertainment assets to higher and better uses, or, when appropriate, to dispose of such assets.

In addition, we review opportunities to monetize our assets where such action could lead to a financially acceptable outcome. We will also continue to investigate potential synergistic acquisitions that may not readily fall into either of our two cinema or real estate segments.

Liquidity and c apital r esources

Liquidity risk is the risk relating to our ability to meet our financial obligations when they come due. In today’s environment, our financial obligations arise mainly from capital expenditure needs, working capital requirements, and debt servicing requirements. We manage the liquidity risk by ensuring o ur ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operating activities and to obtain adequate, reasonable financing and/or to convert non-performing or non-strategic assets into cash.

The change in cash and cash equivalents is as follows:

﻿

Net (decrease)/increase in cash and cash equivalents |  | $ | (10,078) |  | $ | 19,349 |  | (152) | %

Operating activities

Cash provided by operating activities during the current six-month period de creased by $8.8 million, to $8.5 million, primarily dri ven by a de crease of $2.8 million in changes in operating assets and liabilities and by a $6.0 million decrease in operational cash flows.

Investing activities

Cash provided by investing activities during the current six-month period decreased by $38.0 million, to net cash used of $23.3 million, primarily due to one-off cash inflows in 2015 from the sale of investment properties of $21.1 million and the increase of $16 million in purchases and capital expenditures as part of our real estate development program.

Financing Activities

The $4.3 million net cash provided by financing activities during the current six-month period was primarily related to $8.2 million proceeds from borrowings, offset by $3.9 million in loan repayments.

﻿

35

We manage our cash, investments and capital structure so we are able to meet the short-term and long-term obligations of our business, while maintaining financial flexibility and liquidity. We forecast, analyze and monitor our cash flows to enable investment and financing within the overall constraints of our financial strategy.

At June 30, 2016, our consolidated cash and cash equivalents totaled $9.6 million. Of this amount, $2.8 million and $1.8 million w ere held by our Australia n and New Zealand subsidiaries, respectively. Our intention is to indefinitely reinvest Australia n earnings but not indefinitely reinves t New Zealand earnings. If the Australian earnings were used to fund domestic operations, they would be subject to additional income taxes upon repatriation.

We have historically funded our working capital requirements, capital expenditures, investments in the acquisition of individual properties primarily from internally generated cash flows. The Company had $55.5 million unused capacity of available corporate credit facilities at June 30, 2016. In addition, we have $10.4 million (NZ$15.0 million) unused capacity as construction fundi ng for New Zealand.

We expect to refinance the $15.0 million Cinema 1,2,3 Term Loan (USA) prior to the maturity date of October 1, 2016. In addition, we are in the process of obtaining (i) a mortgage on the new corporate headquarters in Los Angeles that we purchased in April 2016, and (ii) a construction financing on our Union Square property re-development project in New York. We expect these financings to be completed during the third quarter of 2016.

Refer to Note 13 – Commitments and Contingencies and Note 18 – Subsequent Events for additional information.

Litigation

We are currently involved in certain legal proceedings and, as required, have accrued estimates of probable and estimable losses for the resolution of these claims.

Where we are the plaintiffs, we expense all legal fees on an on-going basis and make no provision for any potential settlement amounts until received. In Australia, the prevailing party is usually entitled to recover its attorneys’ fees, which typically work out to be approximately 60% of the amounts actually spent where first class legal counsel is engaged at customary rates. Where we are a plaintiff, we have likewise made no provision for the liability for the defendant’s attorneys' fees in the event we are determined not to be the prevailing party.

Where we are the defendants, we accrue for probable damages that insurance may not cover as they become known and can be reasonably estimated. In our opinion, any claims and litigation in which we are currently involved are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial po sition, or liquidity. I t is possible, however, that future results of the operations for any particular quarterly or annual period could be materially affected by the ultimate outcome of the legal proceedings. Please refer to Item 3 – Legal Proceedings in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2015 for more information. There have been no material changes to our litigation exposure since our 201 5 Annual Report, except as set forth in Item 1 – Legal Proceedings.

CRITICAL A CCOUNTING POLICIES

The SEC defines critical accounting policies as those that are, in management’s view, most important to the portrayal of the company’s financial condition and results of operations and the most demanding in their calls on judgment. W e believe our most critical accounting policies relate to:

| · |  | impairment of long-lived assets, including goodwill and intangible assets,

| · |  | tax valuation allowance and obligations, and

| · |  | legal and environmental obligations.

We discuss these critical accounting policies in our 2015 Annual Report and advise you to refer to that discussion.

Refer to Note 1 – Basis of Presentation for more information regarding new and recently adopted accounting pronouncements.

F INANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Currency and interest rate risk

The Company’s objective in managing exposure to foreign currency and interest rate fluctuations is to reduce volatility of earnings and cash flows in order to allow management to focus on core business issues and challenges.

We currently manage our currency exposure by creating, whenever possible, natural hedges in Australia and New Zealand. This involves local country sourcing of goods and services as well as borrowing in local currencies to match revenues and expenses. Since we intend to conduct business on a self-funding basis, except for funds used to pay a n appropriate share of our domestic corporate overhead), we do not believe the currency fluctuations presents a material risk to the Company. As such, w e do not use derivative financial instruments to hedge against the ris k of foreign currency exposure.

As we continue to progress with our acquisition and development activities in Australia and New Zealand, the effect of variations in currency values of our assets and liabilities for Australia and New Zealand stated in US Dollars may increase.

Set forth below is a chart reflecting the currency trends for the Australian and New Zealand Dollar s vis-à-vis the U.S. Dollar s over the past 20 years.

37

Our exposure to interest rate risk arises out of our long-term floating-rate borrowings. To manage the risk, we utilize interest rate derivative contracts to convert certain floating-rate borrowings into fixed-rate borrowings. It is the Company’s policy to enter into interest rate derivative transactions only to the extent considered necessary to meet its objectives as stated above. The Company does not enter into these transactions or any other hedging transactions for speculative purposes.

Inflation

We continually monitor inflation and the effects of changing prices. Inflation increases the cost of goods and services used. Competitive conditions in many of our markets restrict our ability to recover fully the higher costs of acquired goods and services through price increases. We attempt to mitigate the impact of inflation by implementing continuous process improvement solutions to enhance productivity and efficiency and, as a result, lower costs and operating expenses. In our opinion, we have managed the effects of inflation appropriately, and, as a result, it has not had a material impact on our operations and the resulting financial position or liquidity.

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS

Our statements in this interim quarterly report contain a variety of forward-looking statements as defined by the Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements reflect only our expectations regarding future events and operating performance and necessarily speak only as of the date the information was prepared. No guarantees can be given that our expectation will in fact be realized, in whole or in part. You can recognize these statements by our use of words such as, by way of example, “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” and “anticipate” or other similar terminology.

These forward-looking statements reflect our expectation after having considered a variety of risks and uncertainties. However, they are necessarily the product of internal discussion and do not necessarily completely reflect the views of individual members of our Board of Directors or of our management team. Individual Board members and individual members of our management team may have a different view as to the risks and uncertainties involved, and may have different views as to future events or our operating performance.

Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or underlying our forward-looking statements are the following:

| · |  | with respect to our cinema operations:

| o |  | the number and attractiveness to movie goers of the films released in future periods;

| o |  | the amount of money spent by film distributors to promote their motion pictures;

| o |  | the licensing fees and terms required by film distributors from motion picture exhibitors in order to exhibit their films;

| o |  | the comparative attractiveness of motion pictures as a source of entertainment and willingness and/or ability of consumers (i) to spend their dollars on entertainment and (ii) to spend their entertainment dollars on movies in an outside the home environment;

| o |  | the extent to which we encounter competition from other cinema exhibitors, from other sources of outside-the-home entertainment, and from inside-the-home entertainment options, such as “home theaters” and competitive film product distribution technology such as, by way of example, cable, satellite broadcast and DVD rentals and sales, and online streaming;

| o |  | the cost and impact of improvements to our cinemas, such as improve seating, enhanced food and beverage offerings and other improvements;

| o |  | disruptions from theater improvements; and

| o |  | the extent to and the efficiency with which we are able to integrate acquisitions of cinema circuits with our existing operations.

| · |  | with respect to our real estate development and operation activities:

| o |  | the rental rates and capitalization rates applicable to the markets in which we operate and the quality of properties that we own;

| o |  | the extent to which we can obtain on a timely basis the various land use approvals and entitlements needed to develop our properties;

| o |  | the risks and uncertainties associated with real estate development;

| o |  | the availability and cost of labor and materials;

| o |  | the ability to obtain all permits to construct improvements;

| o |  | the ability to finance improvements;

| o |  | the disruptions from construction;

| o |  | the possibility of construction delays, work stoppage and material shortgage;

| o |  | competition for development sites and tenants;

| o |  | environmental remediation issues;

38

| o |  | the extent to which our cinemas can continue to serve as an anchor tenant that will, in turn, be influenced by the same factors as will influence generally the results of our cinema operations; and

| o |  | certain of our activities are in geologically active areas, creating a risk of damage and/or disruption of real estate and/or cinema businesses from earthquakes.

| · |  | with respect to our operations generally as an international company involved in both the development and operation of cinemas and the development and operation of real estate; and previously engaged for many years in the railroad business in the United States:

| o |  | our ongoing access to borrowed funds and capital and the interest that must be paid on that debt and the returns that must be paid on such capital;

| o |  | the relative values of the currency used in the countries in which we operate;

| o |  | changes in government regulation, including by way of example, the costs resulting from the implementation of the requirements of Sarbanes-Oxley;

| o |  | our labor relations and costs of labor (including future government requirements with respect to pension liabilities, disability insurance and health coverage, and vacations and leave);

| o |  | our exposure from time to time to legal claims and to uninsurable risks such as those related to our historic railroad operations, including potential environmental claims and health-related claims relating to alleged exposure to asbestos or other substances now or in the future recognized as being possible causes of cancer or other health related problems;

| o |  | changes in future effective tax rates and the results of currently ongoing and future potential audits by taxing authorities having jurisdiction over our various companies; and

| o |  | changes in applicable accounting policies and practices.

The above list is not necessarily exhaustive, as business is by definition unpredictable and risky, and subject to influence by numerous factors outside of our control, such as changes in government regulation or policy, competition, interest rates, supply, technological innovation, changes in consumer taste and fancy, weather, and the extent to which consumers in our markets have the economic wherewithal to spend money on beyond-the-home entertainment.

Given the variety and unpredictability of the factors that will ultimately influence our businesses and our results of operation, it naturally follows that no guarantees can be given that any of our forward-looking statements will ultimately prove to be correct. Actual results will undoubtedly vary and there is no guarantee as to how our securities will perform either when considered in isolation or when compared to other securities or investment opportunities.

Finally, we undertake no obligation to update publicly or to revise any of our forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable law. Accordingly, you should always note the date to which our forward-looking statements speak.

Additionally, certain of the presentations included in this interim quarterly report may contain “non-GAAP financial measures.” In such case, a reconciliation of this information to our GAAP financial statements will be made available in connection with such statements.

Item 3 – Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

The SEC requires that registrants include information about potential effects of changes in currency exchange and interest rates in their filings. Several alternatives, all with some limitations, have been offered. We base the following discussion on a sensitivity analysis that models the effects of fluctuations in currency exchange rates and interest rates. This analysis is constrained by several factors, including the following:

| · |  | It is based on a single point in time; and

| · |  | It does not include the effects of other complex market reactions that would arise from the changes modeled.

Although the results of such an analysis may be useful as a benchmark, they should not be viewed as forecasts.

At June 30, 2016, approximately 45% and 18% of our assets were invested in assets denominated in Australian dollars (Reading Australia) and New Zealand dollars (Reading New Zealand), respectively, including approximately $4.6 million in cash and cash equivalents. At December 31, 2015, approximately 46% and 19% of our assets were invested in assets denominated in Australian dollars (Reading Australia) and New Zealand dollars (Reading New Zealand), including approximately $10.4 million in cash and cash equivalents.

Our policy in Australia and New Zealand is to match revenues and expenses, whenever possible, in local currencies. As a result, we have procured in local currencies a majority of our expenses in Australia and New Zealand. Despite this natural hedge, recent movements in foreign currencies have had an effect on our current earnings. Although foreign currency has had an effect on our current earnings, the effect of the translation adjustment on our assets and liabilities noted in our other comprehensive income was an in crease of $4.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2016. As we continue to progress our acquisition and development activities in Australia and New Zealand, we cannot assure you that the foreign currency effect on our earnings will be negligible in the future.

Historically, our policy has been to borrow in local currencies to finance the development and construction of our long-term assets in Australia and New Zealand whenever possible. As a result, the borrowings in local currencies have provided somewhat of a natural hedge against the foreign currency exchange exposure. Even so, and as a result of our issuance of fully subordinated Trust Preferred Securities in 2007, and their subsequent partial repayment, approximately 78% and 59% of our Australian and New Zealand assets, respectively, remain subject to such exposure, unless we elect to hedge our foreign currency exchange between the US and Australian and New Zealand dollars. If the foreign currency rates were to fluctuate by 10%, the resulting change in Australian and New Zealand assets would be $13.3 million and $4.1 million, respectively, and the change in our quarterly net income would be $579,000 and $178,000, respectively. Presently, we have no plan to hedge such exposure.

We record unrealized foreign currency translation gains or losses that could materially affect our financial position. As of June 30, 2016 and December 31, 2015, the balance of cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments was approximately $18.9 million gain and $14.6 million gain, respectively.

Historically, we maintain most of our cash and cash equivalent balances in short-term money market instruments with original maturities of three months or less. Due to the short-term nature of such investments, a change of 1% in short-term interest rates would not have a material effect on our financial condition.

We have a combination of fixed and variable interest rate loans. In connection with our variable interest rate loans, a change of approximately 1% in short-term interest rates would have resulted in approximately $178,000 increase or decrease in our quarterly interest expense.

Item 4 – Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such, term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act.

In 2015, we noted a material weakness regarding certain controls related to income tax accounting. We are working assiduously to remediate these controls and anticipate that these controls will be updated and fully implemented d uring the calendar year 2016. To this end, we have hired a senior tax professional with a background in international tax accounting. We have also retained a Big 4 accounting firm to review our tax accounting on a quarterly and annual basis.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2016 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II – Ot her Information

Item 1 – Legal Proceedings

There have been no material changes to the legal proceedings as previously disclosed in our annual report on Form 10-K filed on April 29, 201 6 with the SEC for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, except as disclosed below:

| · |  | Updates to The STOMP Arbitration

In April 2016, we have received a Final Award in our arbitration with The STOMP Company Limited Partnership, the producer of the show STOMP, currently playing at our Orpheum Theater in New York City for over 20 years. The Final Award awards us $2.3 million in attorney’s fees and costs. The parties are currently negotiating terms for the payment of the Final Award, on a basis that is intended to allow recovery by the Company of the entire Final Award (plus interest at 4%), while at the same time allowing the show to continue playing at our Orpheum Theater. We have filed a confirmation of the arbitral award in New York Supreme Court and will pursue collection if parties are unable to reach an agreement.

| · |  | Updat es to the Derivative Litigation

On July 13, 2016, the stockholder plaintiffs in the consolidated derivative cases other than James J. Cotter, Jr. (the “Plaintiff Stockholders) announced the settlement of all of their alleged claims in their previously filed derivative lawsuit in the District Court of the State of Nevada for Clark County. Appropriate papers have now been filed by the parties to effectuate the settlement. However, the settlement of a derivative suit requires Court approval under Nevada Law. The Settlement Hearing will be held before The Honorable Elizabeth Gonzalez on October 6, 2016 at 8:30 a.m., in the Regional Justice Center, 200 Lewis Avenue, Las Vegas, NV 89155. The settlement agreement negotiated by the parties (the “Settlement Agreement”) provides, among other things, for mutual releases and that the parties will be responsible for their own attorney’s fees and costs. A copy of the Settlement Agreement has been posted on our website at www.ReadingRDI.com. In the joint press release issued by the Company and the Plaintiff Stockholders, representatives of the Plaintiff Stockholders stated as follows: "We are pleased with the conclusions reached by our investigations as Plaintiff Stockholders and now firmly believe that the Reading Board of Directors has and will continue to protect stockholder interests and will continue to work to maximize shareholder value over the long term. We appreciate the Company's willingness to engage in open dialogue and are excited about the Company's prospects. Our questions about the termination of James Cotter, Jr., and various transactions between Reading and members of the Cotter family-or entities they control-have been definitively addressed and put to rest. We are impressed by measures the Reading Board has made over the past year to further strengthen corporate governance. We fully support the Reading Board and management team and their strategy to create stockholder value.”

Subsequently, on August 3, 2016 James J. Cotter Jr., filed a motion with the Court seeking permission to file a “Second Amended Verified Complaint” (the “SAP”). Court approval is required for any such amendment. The Company and each of the Defendant Directors intend to oppose Mr. Cotter, Jr’s motion to amend.

The SAP adds as defendants Directors Judy Codding and Michael Wrotniak It adds additional purported claims including purported claims relating to the selection of Ellen Cotter to serve as our Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, the retention of Margaret Cotter to serve as our Executive Vice President responsible for our live theater operations, the ability of Ellen Cotter and Margaret Cotter to vote 100,000 share of our Class B stock, issued upon the exercise of certain stock options held of record by the Estate of James J. Cotter, Sr., and the management and development of our New York properties and the handling by our Board of Directors of an indication of interest receive d at the end of May relating to the purchase of all of the stock of our Company,

Our press release dated July 18, 2016 described this indication of interest and the Board’s determinations with respect thereto as follows:

“Reading International, Inc. (NASDAQ: RDI) (“Reading” or the “Company”) confirmed today that in June 2016, it rejected an unsolicited, non-binding indication of interest from a third party to acquire all of Reading’s outstanding stock at $17 per share. The non-binding indication of interest, and its rejection, were disclosed last week by Board member James J. Cotter, Jr., in a public filing he made in the derivative litigation in the District Court for Clark County, Nevada.

To clarify the record, our Board of Directors, after receiving input from management and its outside advisors, carefully evaluated the indication of interest. Following this review, the Board of Directors determined that our stockholders would be better served by pursuing our independent, stand-alone strategic business plan and communicated this to the third party. Reading’s Board strongly believed that the proposed transaction was not in the best interest of our Company or our stockholders.

42

The statements made by Mr. Cotter, Jr. in his litigation filing were not authorized by the Company, do not constitute Company communications, and the Company takes no responsibility for their accuracy. Typically, it is not our practice to disclose unsolicited expressions of interest and Reading undertakes no obligation to further update this disclosure.”
