During the Predecessor period of March 30, 2012 through August 30, 2012, the Company recognized $4,191,000 of theatre and other closure expense primarily related to the early termination of a lease agreement and accretion on previously closed properties with remaining lease obligations. In addition, the Company closed one theatre with 20 screens located in Canada and paid the landlord $7,562,000 to terminate the lease agreement. See Note 3—Discontinued Operations for additional information.
Theatre and other closure reserves for leases that have not been terminated are recorded at the present value of the future contractual commitments for the base rents, taxes and maintenance. |
