1. | The Company and Basis of Presentation |
Cinemark Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) is a leader in the motion picture exhibition industry, with theatres in the United States (“U.S.”), Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Guatemala and Bolivia. The Company also managed additional theatres in the U.S., Brazil, and Colombia during the three months ended March 31, 2014.
The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2013, which was derived from audited financial statements, and the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and the accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Majority-owned subsidiaries that the Company has control of are consolidated while those affiliates of which the Company owns between 20% and 50% and does not control are accounted for under the equity method. Those affiliates of which the Company owns less than 20% are generally accounted for under the cost method, unless the Company is deemed to have the ability to exercise significant influence over the affiliate, in which case the Company would account for its investment under the equity method. The results of these subsidiaries and affiliates are included in the condensed consolidated financial statements effective with their formation or from their dates of acquisition. Intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited annual consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2013, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed February 28, 2014 by the Company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved for the full year.
2. | New Accounting Pronouncements |
In April 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update 2014-08, Reporting Discontinued Operations and Disclosures of Disposals of Components of an Entity(“ASU 2014-08”). The update changes the criteria for reporting discontinued operations and enhancing convergence of the FASB’s and International Accounting Standard Board’s (IASB) reporting requirements for discontinued operations. ASU 2014-08 is effective for a) all disposals or classifications as held for sale of components of an entity that occur within annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014 and interim periods within those years and b) all businesses or nonprofit activities that, on acquisition, are classified as held for sale that occur within the annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2014, and interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted, but only for disposals or classifications as held for sale that have not been reported in financial statements previously issued or available for issuance. We do not expect the adoption of ASU 2014-08 to have a significant impact on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

3. | Earnings Per Share |
The Company considers its unvested restricted stock awards, which contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends, participating securities, and includes such participating securities in its computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. Basic earnings per share for the two classes of stock (common stock and unvested restricted stock) is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and unvested restricted stock outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares of common stock plus the potentially dilutive effect of common equivalent shares outstanding determined under both the two class method and the treasury stock method.
The following table presents computations of basic and diluted earnings per share under the two-class method:

(1) | For the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, a weighted average of approximately 689 and 1,128 shares of unvested restricted stock, respectively, were considered participating securities. |
4. | Fair Value of Long-Term Debt |
The Company estimates the fair value of its long-term debt primarily using quoted market prices, which fall under Level 2 of the U.S. GAAP fair value hierarchy as defined by FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820-10-35,Fair Value Measurement. The carrying value of the Company’s long-term debt was $1,830,318 and $1,832,800 as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. The fair value of the Company’s long-term debt was $1,827,254 and $1,815,879 as of March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.
5. | Acquisitions and Dispositions |
Acquisition of Rave Theatres
On May 29, 2013, the Company acquired 32 theatres with 483 screens from Rave Real Property Holdco, LLC and certain of its subsidiaries, Rave Cinemas, LLC and RC Processing, LLC (collectively “Rave”) in an asset purchase for approximately $236,875 in cash plus the assumption of certain liabilities (the “Rave Acquisition”). The acquisition resulted in an expansion of the Company’s domestic theatre base into one new state and seven new markets. The transaction was subject to antitrust approval by the Department of Justice or Federal Trade Commission. The Department of Justice required the Company to agree to divest of three of the newly-acquired theatres, which occurred during August 2013 (see discussion below).

7. | Investment in National CineMedia |
The Company has an investment in National CineMedia, LLC (“NCM”). NCM operates a digital in-theatre network in the U.S. for providing cinema advertising and non-film events. Upon joining NCM, the Company entered into an Exhibitor Services Agreement with NCM (“ESA”), pursuant to which NCM provides advertising, promotion and event services to our theatres. As described further in Note 6 to the Company’s financial statements as included in its 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K, on February 13, 2007, National CineMedia, Inc. (“NCM, Inc.”), an entity that serves as the sole manager of NCM, completed an initial public offering (“IPO”) of its common stock. In connection with the NCM Inc. initial public offering, the Company amended its operating agreement and the ESA. Following the NCM, Inc. IPO, the Company does not recognize undistributed equity in the earnings on its original NCM membership units (referred to herein as the Company’s Tranche 1 Investment) until NCM’s future net earnings, less distributions received, surpass the amount of the excess distribution. The Company recognizes equity in earnings on its Tranche 1 Investment only to the extent it receives cash distributions from NCM. The Company recognizes cash distributions it receives from NCM on its Tranche 1 Investment as a component of earnings as Distributions from NCM. The Company believes that the accounting model provided by ASC 323-10-35-22 for recognition of equity investee losses in excess of an investor’s basis is analogous to the accounting for equity income subsequent to recognizing an excess distribution.

During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded equity earnings of approximately $432 and $866, respectively.
Pursuant to a Common Unit Adjustment Agreement dated as of February 13, 2007 between NCM, Inc. and the Company, AMC Entertainment, Inc. (“AMC”) and Regal Entertainment Group (“Regal”), annual adjustments to the common membership units are made primarily based on increases or decreases in the number of theatre screens operated and theatre attendance generated by each Founding Member. As further discussed in Note 6 to the Company’s financial statements as included in its 2013 Annual Report on Form 10-K, the common units received are recorded at fair value as an increase in the Company’s investment in NCM with an offset to deferred revenue. The deferred revenue is amortized over the remaining term of the ESA. During March 2014, NCM performed its annual common unit adjustment calculation under the Common Unit Adjustment Agreement. As a result of the calculation, the Company received an additional 557,631 common units of NCM, each of which is convertible into one share of NCM, Inc. common stock. The Company recorded the additional common units received at fair value with a corresponding adjustment to deferred revenue of approximately $8,216. The deferred revenue will be recognized over the remaining term of the ESA, which is approximately 22 years.
As of March 31, 2014, the Company owned a total of 24,556,136 common units of NCM, representing an ownership interest of approximately 19%.

8. | Investment in Digital Cinema Implementation Partners |
On February 12, 2007, the Company, AMC and Regal entered into a joint venture known as Digital Cinema Implementation Partners LLC (“DCIP”) to facilitate the implementation of digital cinema in the Company’s theatres and to establish agreements with major motion picture studios for the financing of digital cinema. On March 10, 2010, the Company signed a master equipment lease agreement and other related agreements (collectively the “agreements”) with Kasima LLC (“Kasima”), which is an indirect subsidiary of DCIP and a related party to the Company. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had a 33% voting interest in DCIP and a 24.3% economic interest in DCIP.
The Company has a variable interest in Kasima through the terms of its master equipment lease agreement; however, the Company has determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of Kasima, as the Company does not have the ability to direct the activities of Kasima that most significantly impact Kasima’s economic performance. The Company accounts for its investment in DCIP and its subsidiaries under the equity method of accounting. During the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded equity income of approximately $3,294 and $1,552, respectively, relating to this investment.
Below is a summary of changes in the Company’s investment in DCIP for the three months ended March 31, 2014:

The digital projection systems that are leased from Kasima are under an operating lease with an initial term of twelve years that contains ten one-year fair value renewal options. The equipment lease agreement also contains a fair value purchase option. Under the equipment lease agreement, which was amended effective March 31, 2014, the Company pays minimum annual rent of one thousand dollars per digital projection system. The Company is also subject to various types of other rent if such digital projection systems do not meet minimum performance requirements as outlined in the Agreements. Certain of the other rent payments are subject to either a monthly or an annual maximum. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had 3,631 digital projection systems being leased under the master equipment lease agreement with Kasima. The Company recorded equipment lease expense of approximately $2,045 and $1,966 during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, which is included in utilities and other costs on the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Certain of the restricted stock granted to employees vests over two years based on continued service and the remaining restricted stock granted to employees vests over four years based on continued service. The recipients of restricted stock are entitled to receive dividends and to vote their respective shares, however, the sale and transfer of the restricted shares is prohibited during the restriction period.
Below is a summary of restricted stock activity for the three months ended March 31, 2014:

The Company receives an income tax deduction upon vesting of the restricted stock awards. The total fair value of shares that vested during the three months ended March 31, 2014 was $17,466. The Company recognized a tax benefit of approximately $6,645 during the three months ended March 31, 2014 related to these vested shares.
The Company recorded compensation expense of $2,616 and $2,588 related to restricted stock awards during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively. As of March 31, 2014, the estimated remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to restricted stock awards was $18,397 and the weighted average period over which this remaining compensation expense will be recognized is approximately two years.
Restricted Stock Units– During the three months ended March 31, 2014, the Company granted restricted stock units representing 197,515 hypothetical shares of common stock to employees. The restricted stock units vest based on a combination of financial performance factors and continued service. The financial performance factors are based on an implied equity value concept that determines an internal rate of return (“IRR”) during the two fiscal year periods ending December 31, 2015 based on a formula utilizing a multiple of Adjusted EBITDA subject to certain specified adjustments as defined in the restricted stock unit award agreement. The financial performance factors for the restricted stock units have a threshold, target and maximum level of payment opportunity and vest on a prorata basis according to the IRR achieved by the Company during the performance period. If the IRR for the two year period is at least 8.5%, which is the threshold, one-third of the restricted stock units vest. If the IRR for the two year period is at least 10.5%, which is the target, two-thirds of the restricted stock units vest. If the IRR for the two year period is at least 12.5%, which is the maximum, 100% of the restricted stock units vest. Grantees are eligible to receive a ratable portion of the common stock issuable if the IRR is within the targets previously noted. All payouts of restricted stock units that vest will be subject to an additional two year service requirement and will be paid in the form of common stock if the participant continues to provide services through March 2018, which is the fourth anniversary of the grant date. Restricted stock unit award participants are eligible to receive dividend equivalent payments if and at the time the restricted stock unit awards vest.

Below is a table summarizing the potential number of shares that could vest under restricted stock unit awards granted during the three months ended March 31, 2014 at each of the three target levels of financial performance (excluding forfeiture assumptions):
Number of | ||||||||
Shares | Value at | |||||||
Vesting | Grant | |||||||
at IRR of at least 8.5% | 65,832 | $ | 1,879 | |||||
at IRR of at least 10.5% | 131,683 | $ | 3,758 | |||||
at IRR of at least 12.5% | 197,515 | $ | 5,637 |
Due to the fact that the IRR for the two year performance period could not be determined at the time of grant, the Company estimated that the most likely outcome is the achievement of the mid-point IRR level. The fair value of the restricted stock unit awards was determined based on the market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, which was $28.54 per share. The Company assumed forfeiture rates ranging from 0% to 5% for the restricted stock unit awards. If during the service period, additional information becomes available to lead the Company to believe a different IRR level will be achieved for the two year performance period, the Company will reassess the number of units that will vest for the grant and adjust its compensation expense accordingly on a prospective basis over the remaining service period.
The Company recorded compensation expense of $907 and $862 related to restricted stock unit awards during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
During the three months ended March 31, 2014, 392,238 restricted stock unit awards vested. Upon vesting, each restricted stock unit was converted into one share of the Company’s common stock. The fair value of the restricted stock unit awards that vested during the three months ended March 31, 2014 was approximately $11,194. The Company recognized a tax benefit of approximately $4,751 during the three months ended March 31, 2014 related to these vested awards.
As of March 31, 2014, the estimated remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to the outstanding restricted stock unit awards was $6,777. The weighted average period over which this remaining compensation expense will be recognized is approximately two years. As of March 31, 2014, the Company had restricted stock units outstanding that represented a total of 607,806 hypothetical shares of common stock, net of actual cumulative forfeitures of 11,498 units, assuming the maximum IRR level is achieved for each of the grants.
11. | Interest Rate Swap Agreements |
The Company is currently a party to three interest rate swap agreements that are used to hedge interest rate risk associated with the variable interest rates on the Company’s term loan debt and qualify for cash flow hedge accounting. The fair values of the interest rate swaps are recorded on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as an asset or liability with the effective portion of the interest rate swaps’ gains or losses reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss and the ineffective portion reported in earnings. The changes in fair values are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss into earnings in the same period that the hedged items affect earnings.
The valuation technique used to determine fair value is the income approach and under this approach, the Company uses projected future interest rates as provided by counterparties to the interest rate swap agreements and the fixed rates that the Company is obligated to pay under these agreements. Therefore, the Company’s measurements use significant unobservable inputs, which fall in Level 3 of the U.S. GAAP hierarchy as defined by FASB ASC Topic 820-10-35. There were no changes in valuation techniques during the period and no transfers in or out of Level 3. See Note 14 for a summary of unrealized gains or losses recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and earnings.

|
|
(1) | Balances are presented net of accumulated impairment losses of $214,031 for the U.S. operating segment and $27,622 for the international operating segment. |
The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment on an annual basis during the fourth quarter or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of goodwill might exceed its estimated fair value. The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level and has allocated goodwill to the reporting unit based on an estimate of its relative fair value. The Company considers the reporting unit to be each of its eighteen regions in the U.S. and each of its eight countries internationally (Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama and Guatemala are considered one reporting unit). Goodwill impairment is evaluated using a two-step approach requiring the Company to compute the fair value of a reporting unit and compare it with its carrying value. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds the estimated fair value, a second step is performed to measure the potential goodwill impairment. Significant judgment is involved in estimating cash flows and fair value. Management’s estimates, which fall under Level 3 of the U.S. GAAP fair value hierarchy as defined by FASB ASC Topic 820-10-35, are based on historical and projected operating performance, recent market transactions and current industry trading multiples. Fair value is determined based on a multiple of cash flows, which was eight times for the evaluation performed during the fourth quarter of 2013.

13. | Impairment of Long-Lived Assets |
The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment indicators on a quarterly basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable.
The Company considers actual theatre level cash flows, budgeted theatre level cash flows, theatre property and equipment carrying values, amortizing intangible asset carrying values, the age of a recently built theatre, competitive theatres in the marketplace, the impact of recent ticket price changes, available lease renewal options and other factors considered relevant in its assessment of impairment of individual theatre assets. Long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment on an individual theatre basis, which the Company believes is the lowest applicable level for which there are identifiable cash flows. The impairment evaluation is based on the estimated undiscounted cash flows from continuing use through the remainder of the theatre’s useful life. The remainder of the useful life correlates with the available remaining lease period, which includes the probability of renewal periods for leased properties and a period of approximately twenty years for fee owned properties. If the estimated undiscounted cash flows are not sufficient to recover a long-lived asset’s carrying value, the Company then compares the carrying value of the asset group (theatre) with its estimated fair value. When estimated fair value is determined to be lower than the carrying value of the asset group (theatre), the asset group (theatre) is written down to its estimated fair value. Significant judgment is involved in estimating cash flows and fair value. Management’s estimates, which fall under Level 3 of the U.S. GAAP fair value hierarchy as defined by FASB ASC Topic 820-10-35, are based on historical and projected operating performance, recent market transactions and current industry trading multiples. Fair value is determined based on a multiple of cash flows, which was six and a half times for the evaluations performed during the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013. As of March 31, 2014, the estimated aggregate fair value of the long-lived assets impaired during the three months ended March 31, 2014 was approximately $726.

14. | Fair Value Measurements |
The Company determines fair value measurements in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 820, which establishes a fair value hierarchy under which an asset or liability is categorized based on the lowest level of input significant to its fair value measurement. The levels of input defined by FASB ASC Topic 820 are as follows:
Level 1 – quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that are accessible at the measurement date;
Level 2 – other than quoted market prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 – unobservable and should be used to measure fair value to the extent that observable inputs are not available.
Below is a summary of assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis by the Company under FASB ASC Topic 820 as of March 31, 2014:

The Company also uses the income approach for fair value measurements on a nonrecurring basis in the impairment evaluations of its long-lived assets (see Note 12 and Note 13). Additionally, the Company uses the market approach to estimate the fair value of its long-term debt (see Note 4). There were no changes in valuation techniques during the period. There were no transfers in or out of Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 during the three months ended March 31, 2014.
15. | Foreign Currency Translation |
The accumulated other comprehensive loss account in stockholders’ equity of $88,232 and $81,819 at March 31, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively, includes cumulative foreign currency adjustments of $88,142 and $78,947, respectively, from translating the financial statements of the Company’s international subsidiaries, and also includes the change in fair values of the Company’s interest rate swap agreements that are designated as hedges and the change in fair value of the Company’s available-for-sale securities.
All foreign countries where the Company has operations are non-highly inflationary and the local currency is the same as the functional currency in all of the locations. Thus, any fluctuation in the currency results in a cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment recorded to accumulated other comprehensive loss.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes and schedules included elsewhere in this report.
We are a leader in the motion picture exhibition industry, with theatres in the U.S., Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Guatemala and Bolivia. As of March 31, 2014, we managed our business under two reportable operating segments – U.S. markets and international markets. See Note 17 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
We generate revenues primarily from box office receipts and concession sales with additional revenues from screen advertising sales and other revenue streams, such as vendor marketing promotions, meeting rentals and electronic video games located in some of our theatres. Our contracts with NCM have assisted us in expanding our offerings to domestic advertisers and broadening ancillary revenue sources such as digital video monitor advertising and third party branding. Historically, we have also offered alternative entertainment, such as live and pre-recorded sports programs, concert events, the MET opera and other special presentations in our theatres through our relationship with NCM. We are continuing to offer this entertainment through our recently formed joint venture, AC JV, LLC. Our Flix Media initiative has allowed us to expand our screen advertising within our international circuit and to other international exhibitors. Films leading the box office during the three months ended March 31, 2014 included the carryover ofFrozen, The LEGO® Movie, Ride Along, Lone Survivor, Divergentand 300: Rise of an Empire among other films. Films currently scheduled for release during the remainder of 2014 include sequels such asHunger Games: Mockingjay Part I, Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies, Transformers: Age of Extinction, Amazing Spider-Man 2, How to Train Your Dragon 2, X Men: Days of Future Past, Dawn of the Planet of the Apes, Rio 2andCaptain America: The Winter Soldierand new films such asMaleficent, Guardians of the Galaxy andInterstellar,among other films.
Film rental costs are variable in nature and fluctuate with our admissions revenues. Film rental costs as a percentage of revenues are generally higher for periods in which more blockbuster films are released. Film rental costs can also vary based on the length of a film’s run. Film rental rates are generally negotiated on a film-by-film and theatre-by-theatre basis. Advertising costs, which are expensed as incurred, are primarily fixed at the theatre level as daily movie directories placed in newspapers represent the largest component of advertising costs. The monthly cost of these advertisements is based on, among other things, the size of the directory and the frequency and size of the newspaper’s circulation.
Concession supplies expense is variable in nature and fluctuates with our concession revenues. We purchase concession supplies to replace units sold. We negotiate prices for concession supplies directly with concession vendors and manufacturers to obtain volume rates.
Although salaries and wages include a fixed cost component (i.e. the minimum staffing costs to operate a theatre facility during non-peak periods), salaries and wages move in relation to revenues as theatre staffing is adjusted to respond to changes in attendance. In some international locations, staffing levels are also subject to local regulations.
Facility lease expense is primarily a fixed cost at the theatre level as most of our facility leases require a fixed monthly minimum rent payment. Certain of our leases are subject to percentage rent only while others are subject to percentage rent in addition to their fixed monthly rent if a target annual revenue level is achieved. Facility lease expense as a percentage of revenues is also affected by the number of theatres under operating leases, the number of theatres under capital leases and the number of fee-owned theatres.
Utilities and other costs include certain costs that have both fixed and variable components such as utilities, property taxes, janitorial costs, repairs and maintenance and security services.

The increase in concession revenues of $27.5 million was attributable to the 17.0% increase in attendance and a 5.3% increase in concession revenues per patron from $3.40 for the first quarter of 2013 to $3.58 for the first quarter of 2014. Our revenues and attendance for the first quarter of 2014 benefited from the inclusion of the Rave theatres acquired on May 29, 2013 (see Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements). The increase in attendance was also partly due to the success of the films released during the first quarter of 2014, includingThe LEGO® Movie, which grossed over $250 million domestically, and the carryover ofFrozen, which was released during late November 2013. The increase in average ticket price was primarily due to the pricing at the acquired theatres and price increases. The increase in concession revenues per patron was primarily due to incremental sales and price increases. The increase in other revenues was primarily attributable to the 17.0% increase in attendance, which resulted in increases in screen advertising, video game and other promotional revenues. |
• | International. Decreases in revenues and attendance were primarily due to the sale of our Mexico theatres, which occurred during November 2013, partially offset by the impact of new theatres opened in certain of our other international countries. Admissions revenues decreased $16.6 million, concession revenues decreased $6.9 million and attendance decreased 7.9%. Admissions revenues were also impacted by a 7.1% decrease in average ticket price from $5.06 for the first quarter of 2013 to $4.70 for the first quarter of 2014. Concession revenues were also impacted by a 5.4% decrease in concession revenues per patron from $2.40 for the first quarter of 2013 to $2.27 for the first quarter of 2014. The decreases in average ticket price and concession revenues per patron were due to the impact of unfavorable exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate, which was slightly offset by local currency price increases. |

• | U.S. Film rentals and advertising costs were $154.0 million, or 54.5% of admissions revenues, for the first quarter of 2014 compared to $124.6 million, or 53.1% of admissions revenues, for the first quarter of 2013. The increase in film rentals and advertising costs of $29.4 million was due to the $48.1 million increase in admissions revenues and an increase in the film rentals and advertising rate. The increase in the film rentals and advertising rate was primarily due to a heavier weighting of the top five films during the first quarter of 2014 compared to the first quarter of 2013. Concession supplies expense was $20.2 million, or 13.9% of concession revenues, for the first quarter of 2014 compared to $15.8 million, or 13.4% of concession revenues, for the first quarter of 2013. The increase in the concession supplies rate was primarily due to increases in inventory procurement costs on certain concession products and the impact of special concession promotions that help drive incremental concession sales. |
Salaries and wages increased to $48.6 million for the first quarter of 2014 from $39.7 million for the first quarter of 2013 primarily due to increased staffing levels related to the 17.0% increase in attendance. Facility lease expense increased to $59.3 million for the first quarter of 2014 from $46.9 million for the first quarter of 2013 primarily due to new and acquired theatres. Utilities and other costs increased to $53.8 million for the first quarter of 2014 from $42.8 million for the first quarter of 2013 with increases in utility costs, property taxes and repairs and maintenance expenses. All of the above-mentioned theatre operating costs were impacted by the inclusion of the Rave theatres acquired on May 29, 2013.
• | International. Film rentals and advertising costs were $46.7 million, or 47.6% of admissions revenues, for the first quarter of 2014 compared to $55.4 million, or 48.3% of admissions revenues, for the first quarter of 2013. Concession supplies expense was $9.8 million, or 20.6% of concession revenues, for the first quarter of 2014 compared to $12.2 million, or 22.4% of concession revenues, for the first quarter of 2013. The decrease in the film rentals and advertising rate for the first quarter of 2014 was primarily due to increased virtual print fees that we earn from studios on films played in our international theatres. The decrease in the concession supplies rate was primarily due to concession sales price increases. |
Salaries and wages decreased to $15.8 million for the first quarter of 2014 from $18.8 million for the first quarter of 2013. Facility lease expense decreased to $19.1 million for the first quarter of 2014 from $22.7 million for the first quarter of 2013. Utilities and other costs decreased to $22.1 million for the first quarter of 2014 from $26.0 million for the first quarter of 2013. All of the above-mentioned theatre operating costs were impacted by the sale of our Mexico theatres during November 2013 and changes in exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate.
General and Administrative Expenses.General and administrative expenses increased to $39.3 million for the first quarter of 2014 from $37.8 million for the first quarter of 2013. The increase was primarily due to increased salaries and incentive compensation expense of approximately $2.3 million and increased professional fees of approximately $1.5 million, partially offset by the impact of the sale of our Mexican subsidiaries during November 2013.
Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense was $42.5 million during the first quarter of 2014 compared to $39.0 million during the first quarter of 2013. The increase was primarily due to new theatres, including the Rave theatres acquired during May 2013.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. We recorded asset impairment charges on assets held and used of $0.4 million during the first quarter of 2014 compared to $0.8 million during the first quarter of 2013. The long-lived asset impairment charges recorded during each of the periods presented were specific to theatres that were directly and individually impacted by increased competition, adverse changes in market demographics or adverse changes in the development or the conditions of the areas surrounding the theatre. Impairment charges for the first quarter of 2014 consisted of U.S. theatre properties, impacting five of our twenty-six reporting units. See Note 13 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
(Gain) Loss on Sale of Assets and Other.We recorded a loss on sale of assets and other of $2.8 million during the first quarter of 2014 compared to a gain of $0.3 million during the first quarter of 2013. The loss recorded during the first quarter of 2014 is primarily due to the replacement of certain theatre assets during the period.
Interest Expense.Interest costs incurred, including amortization of debt issue costs, were $28.5 million during the first quarter of 2014 compared to $32.6 million during the first quarter of 2013. The decrease was primarily due to the issuance of our 4.875% Senior Notes on May 24, 2013 that were used to pay off the former 8.625% Senior Notes.
Distributions from NCM.We recorded distributions from NCM of $9.5 million during the first quarter of 2014 compared to $6.1 million during the first quarter of 2013, which were in excess of the carrying value of our Tranche 1 investment. See Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Equity in Income of Affiliates.We recorded equity in income of affiliates of $3.6 million during the first quarter of 2014 compared to $2.4 million during the first quarter of 2013. The equity in income of affiliates recorded during the first quarter of 2014 primarily consisted of income of approximately $3.2 million related to our equity investment in DCIP (see Note 8 to our condensed consolidated financial statements) and income of approximately $0.4 million related to our equity investment in NCM (see Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements). The equity in income of affiliates recorded during the first quarter of 2013 primarily consisted of income of approximately $1.5 million related to our equity investment in DCIP and income of approximately $0.9 million related to our equity investment in NCM.
Income Taxes.Income tax expense of $20.9 million was recorded for the first quarter of 2014 compared to $10.6 million for the first quarter of 2013. The effective tax rate was approximately 36.9% for the first quarter of 2014 compared to 24.3% for the first quarter of 2013. Income tax provisions for interim (quarterly) periods are based on estimated annual income tax rates and are adjusted for the effects of significant, infrequent or unusual items (i.e. discrete items) occurring during the interim period. As a result, the interim rate may vary significantly from the normalized annual rate. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2013 reflected the impact of items related to our Mexico subsidiaries.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Operating Activities
We primarily collect our revenues in cash, mainly through box office receipts and the sale of concessions. In addition, nearly all of our theatres provide the patron a choice of using a credit card, debit card or advanced-sale type certificates such as a gift card, in place of cash. Because our revenues are received in cash prior to the payment of related expenses, we have an operating “float” and historically have not required traditional working capital financing. Cash provided by operating activities was $61.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $42.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013.
Investing Activities
Our investing activities have been principally related to the development and acquisition of theatres. New theatre openings and acquisitions historically have been financed with internally generated cash and by debt financing, including borrowings under our amended senior secured credit facility. Cash used for investing activities was $53.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2014 compared to $31.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2013.
Capital expenditures for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 were as follows (in millions):

Three Months Ended March 31, 2013 | $ | 15.9 | $ | 21.0 | $ | 36.9 |
We continue to invest in our U.S. theatre circuit, which consisted of 4,459 screens at March 31, 2014. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, we built one new theatre with 12 screens and closed two theatres with 10 screens. At March 31, 2014, we had signed commitments to open seven new theatres with 78 screens in domestic markets during the remainder of 2014 and open six new theatres with 74 screens subsequent to 2014. We estimate the remaining capital expenditures for the development of these 152 domestic screens will be approximately $84 million. Actual expenditures for continued theatre development and acquisitions are subject to change based upon the availability of attractive opportunities.
We also continue to invest in our international theatre circuit, which consisted of 1,136 screens at March 31, 2014. During the three months ended March 31, 2014, we built five new theatres with 32 screens and closed two screens. At March 31, 2014, we had signed commitments to open eight new theatres and 54 screens in international markets during the remainder of 2014 and open four new theatres and 33 screens subsequent to 2014. We estimate the remaining capital expenditures for the development of these 87 international screens will be approximately $63 million. Actual expenditures for continued theatre development and acquisitions are subject to change based upon the availability of attractive opportunities.

The 4.875% Senior Notes and the guarantees are senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s and its guarantor’s existing and future senior unsecured debt and senior in right of payment to all of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s and its guarantor’s existing and future senior subordinated debt. The 4.875% Senior Notes and the guarantees are effectively subordinated to all of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s and its guarantor’s existing and future secured debt to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt, including all borrowings under Cinemark USA, Inc.’s amended senior secured credit facility. The 4.875% Senior Notes and the guarantees are structurally subordinated to all existing and future debt and other liabilities of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s subsidiaries that do not guarantee the 4.875% Senior Notes.

The indenture to the 4.875% Senior Notes contains covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of Cinemark USA, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries to (1) make investments or other restricted payments, including paying dividends, making other distributions or repurchasing subordinated debt or equity, (2) incur additional indebtedness and issue preferred stock, (3) enter into transactions with affiliates, (4) enter new lines of business, (5) merge or consolidate with, or sell all or substantially all of its assets to, another person and (6) create liens. As of March 31, 2014, Cinemark USA, Inc. could have distributed up to approximately $1,471.5 million to its parent company and sole stockholder, Cinemark Holdings, Inc., under the terms of the indenture to the 4.875% Senior Notes, subject to its available cash and other borrowing restrictions outlined in the indenture. Upon a change of control, as defined in the indenture governing the 4.875% Senior Notes, Cinemark USA, Inc. would be required to make an offer to repurchase the 4.875% Senior Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, through the date of repurchase. The indenture governing the 4.875% Senior Notes allows Cinemark USA, Inc. to incur additional indebtedness if it satisfies the coverage ratio specified in the indenture, after giving effect to the incurrence of the additional indebtedness, and in certain other circumstances. The required minimum coverage ratio is 2 to 1 and our actual ratio as of March 31, 2014 was approximately 6.5 to 1.
Prior to June 1, 2018, Cinemark USA, Inc. may redeem all or any part of the 4.875% Senior Notes at its option at 100% of the principal amount plus a make-whole premium plus accrued and unpaid interest on the 4.875% Senior Notes to the date of redemption.

Amended Senior Secured Credit Facility
On December 18, 2012, Cinemark USA, Inc. amended and restated its senior secured credit facility to include a seven year $700.0 million term loan and a five year $100.0 million revolving credit line (the “Amended Senior Secured Credit Facility”). The proceeds from the Amended Senior Secured Credit Facility, combined with a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the 5.125% Senior Notes discussed below, were used to refinance Cinemark USA, Inc.’s former senior secured credit facility. The term loan under the Amended Senior Secured Credit Facility matures in December 2019. The revolving credit line matures in December 2017. Quarterly principal payments in the amount of $1.75 million are due on the term loan through September 2019 with the remaining principal of $652.8 million due on December 18, 2019.
Interest on the term loan accrues at Cinemark USA, Inc.’s option at: (A) the base rate equal to the higher of (1) the prime lending rate as set forth on the British Banking Association Telerate page 5, or (2) the federal funds effective rate from time to time plus 0.50%, plus a margin of 2.0% per annum, or (B) a “eurodollar rate” plus a margin of 3.0% per annum. Interest on the revolving credit line accrues, at Cinemark USA, Inc.’s option, at: (A) a base rate equal to the higher of (1) the prime lending rate as set forth on the British Banking Association Telerate page 5 and (2) the federal funds effective rate from time to time plus 0.50%, plus a margin that ranges from 1.00% to 1.75% per annum, or (B) a “eurodollar rate” plus a margin that ranges from 2.00% to 2.75% per annum. The margin of the revolving credit line is determined by the consolidated net senior secured leverage ratio as defined in the credit agreement.
Cinemark USA, Inc.’s obligations under the Amended Senior Secured Credit Facility are guaranteed by Cinemark Holdings, Inc. and certain of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s domestic subsidiaries and are secured by mortgages on certain fee and leasehold properties and security interests in substantially all of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s and the guarantors’ personal property, including, without limitation, pledges of all of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s capital stock, all of the capital stock of certain of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the voting stock of certain of its foreign subsidiaries.
The Amended Senior Secured Credit Facility contains usual and customary negative covenants for agreements of this type, including, but not limited to, restrictions on Cinemark USA, Inc.’s ability, and in certain instances, its subsidiaries’ and Cinemark Holdings, Inc.’s ability, to consolidate or merge or liquidate, wind up or dissolve; substantially change the nature of its business; sell, transfer or dispose of assets; create or incur indebtedness; create liens; pay dividends, and repurchase stock; and make capital expenditures and investments. If Cinemark USA, Inc. has borrowings outstanding on the revolving credit line, it is required to satisfy a consolidated net senior secured leverage ratio covenant as determined in accordance with the Amended Senior Secured Credit Facility.

The 5.125% Senior Notes and the guarantees are effectively subordinated to all of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s and its guarantor’s existing and future secured debt to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt, including all borrowings under Cinemark USA, Inc.’s amended senior secured credit facility. The 5.125% Senior Notes and the guarantees are structurally subordinated to all existing and future debt and other liabilities of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s subsidiaries that do not guarantee the 5.125% Senior Notes.
The indenture to the 5.125% Senior Notes contains covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of Cinemark USA, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries to (1) make investments or other restricted payments, including paying dividends, making other distributions or repurchasing subordinated debt or equity, (2) incur additional indebtedness and issue preferred stock, (3) enter into transactions with affiliates, (4) enter new lines of business, (5) merge or consolidate with, or sell all or substantially all of its assets to, another person and (6) create liens.

As of March 31, 2014, Cinemark USA, Inc. could have distributed up to approximately $1,465.1 million to its parent company and sole stockholder, Cinemark Holdings, Inc., under the terms of the indenture to the Senior Subordinated Notes, subject to its available cash and other borrowing restrictions outlined in the indenture governing the Senior Subordinated Notes. Upon a change of control, as defined in the indenture, Cinemark USA, Inc. would be required to make an offer to repurchase the Senior Subordinated Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, through the date of repurchase. The indenture allows Cinemark USA, Inc. to incur additional indebtedness if it satisfies the coverage ratio specified in the indenture, after giving effect to the incurrence of the additional indebtedness, and in certain other circumstances. The required minimum coverage ratio is 2 to 1, and our actual ratio as of March 31, 2014 was approximately 6.5 to 1.
Prior to June 15, 2016, Cinemark USA, Inc. may redeem all or any part of the Senior Subordinated Notes at its option at 100% of the principal amount plus a make-whole premium plus accrued and unpaid interest on the senior subordinated notes to the date of redemption. After June 15, 2016, Cinemark USA, Inc. may redeem the Senior Subordinated Notes in whole or in part at redemption prices specified in the indenture. In addition, prior to June 15, 2014, Cinemark USA, Inc. may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Senior Subordinated Notes from the net proceeds of certain equity offerings at the redemption price set forth in the indenture.
Cinemark USA, Inc. and its guarantor subsidiaries filed a registration statement with the Commission on July 27, 2011 pursuant to which Cinemark USA, Inc. offered to exchange the Senior Subordinated Notes for substantially similar registered Senior Subordinated Notes. The registration statement became effective August 4, 2011, and approximately $199.5 million of the notes were exchanged on September 7, 2011. The registered Senior Subordinated Notes, issued in the exchange, do not have transfer restrictions. Approximately $0.5 million of the Senior Subordinated Notes were not exchanged as of March 31, 2014.

Cinemark USA, Inc. 8.625% Senior Notes
On June 29, 2009, Cinemark USA, Inc. issued $470.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8.625% senior notes due 2019 (the “8.625% Senior Notes”), with an original issue discount of $11.5 million, resulting in proceeds of approximately $458.5 million. The proceeds were primarily used to fund the repurchase of the then remaining outstanding $419.4 million aggregate principal amount at maturity of Cinemark, Inc.’s 9.75% senior discount notes.
On June 24, 2013, Cinemark USA, Inc. redeemed its 8.625% Senior Notes at 112.035% of the principal amount, inclusive of a make-whole premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, utilizing the proceeds from the issuance of the 4.875% Senior Notes discussed above.
Covenant Compliance
As of March 31, 2014, we believe we were in full compliance with all agreements, including all related covenants, governing our outstanding debt.
Seasonality
Our revenues have historically been seasonal, coinciding with the timing of releases of motion pictures by the major distributors. Generally, the most successful motion pictures have been released during the summer, extending from May to July, and during the holiday season, extending from early November through year-end. The unexpected emergence of a hit film during other periods can alter this seasonality trend. The timing of such film releases can have a significant effect on our results of operations, and the results of one quarter are not necessarily indicative of results for the next quarter or for the same period in the following year.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We have exposure to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and other relevant market prices.
Interest Rate Risk
We are currently party to variable rate debt facilities. An increase or decrease in interest rates would affect our interest expense relating to our variable rate debt facilities. At March 31, 2014, there was an aggregate of approximately $241.3 million of variable rate debt outstanding under these facilities, which excludes $450.0 million of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s term loan debt that is hedged with the Company’s interest rate swap agreements in effect as of March 31, 2014 as discussed below. Based on the interest rates in effect on the variable rate debt outstanding at March 31, 2014, a 100 basis point increase in market interest rates would increase our annual interest expense by approximately $2.4 million.
Our interest rate swap agreements qualify for cash flow hedge accounting. The fair values of the interest rate swaps are recorded on our condensed consolidated balance sheet as an asset or liability with the effective portion of the interest rate swaps’ gains or losses reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss and the ineffective portion reported in earnings.
Below is a summary of our interest rate swap agreements as of March 31, 2014:
Nominal Amount (in millions) | Effective Date | Pay Rate | Receive Rate | Expiration Date | ||||||||
