Accounting Policies [Abstract]
The Company and Basis of Presentation	1. The Company and Basis of Presentation Cinemark Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) operates 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, Bolivia, Curacao and Paraguay. The accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2018, 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 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. Th 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, 2018, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed February 28, 2019 by the Company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved for the full year.

Leases [Abstract]
Adoption of ASC Topic 842 - Lease Accounting	3. Adoption of ASC Topic 842 – Lease Accounting The Company adopted ASC Topic 842 as of January 1, 2019 under the modified retrospective approach that resulted in the recognition of a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings with an option to elect certain practical expedients. The Company elected the following practical expedients, as allowed by ASC Topic 842: • The Company chose not to separate nonlease components from lease components, accounting for lease components and nonlease components associated with a lease as a single lease component. More specifically, for theatre leases, the Company elected not to separate fixed common area maintenance costs from lease costs when calculating lease liabilities and assets. • The Company also elected the following practical expedients: o The Company did not reassess whether existing contracts in effect as of the transition date of January 1, 2019 were, or contained, a lease. o The Company did not reassess the classification of existing leases as operating or finance as of the transition date. o The Company did not reassess whether any initial direct costs were incurred for any of its existing leases. o The Company did not elect to apply the recognition requirements of ASC 842 to short-term leases. The adoption of ASC Topic 842 included the following primary impacts: 1. The Company recorded a right-of-use asset and lease liability for all of its operating leases as required by the standard. The lease liability for each lease was determined based on the present value of future minimum lease payments. The right-of-use asset was based on the lease liability value, adjusted for offsets that existed as of adoption, including deferred rent liabilities of ($39,235), net favorable and unfavorable lease intangibles of ($5,780), deferred lease incentive liabilities of ($12,960) and long-term prepaid rents of $7,707. The Company recorded operating lease right-of-use assets of $1,491,245 and operating lease liabilities of $1,545,210 upon adoption. 2. Certain of the Company’s existing lease assets and liabilities, which were accounted for under prior sale-leaseback accounting guidance, were derecognized in accordance with ASC Topic 842 and reevaluated for classification per the new accounting guidance. Several of these leases have been reestablished as operating leases based on ASC Topic 842. a. For those leases that are now classified as operating leases in accordance with ASC Topic 842, approximately $110,442 and $126,376 of lease assets and liabilities, respectively, were recorded as an adjustment to beginning retained earnings. The related net deferred income tax asset for these accounts was also recorded as an adjustment to beginning retained earnings. See additional impact discussed in item 3 below. b. The Company recognized finance lease assets and liabilities in the amount of $57,440 as of January 1, 2019 for the remaining leases that were determined to be finance leases under ASC Topic 842. 3. For the leases noted in item 2a above, the Company will now record the related operating lease payments as facility lease expense, compared to prior periods in which the capitalized asset was depreciated and lease payments were recorded as a reduction of a lease liability and interest expense. Theatre Leases - The Company conducts a significant part of its theatre operations in leased properties under noncancelable operating and finance leases with terms generally ranging from 10 to 25 years. In addition to the fixed lease payments, some of the leases provide for variable lease payments and some require the payment of taxes, insurance and other costs applicable to the property. Variable lease payments include payments based on a percentage of retail sales over contractual levels or payments adjusted periodically for inflation or changes in attendance. The Company can renew, at its option, a substantial portion of the leases at defined or then market rental rates for various periods. Some leases also provide for escalating rent payments throughout the lease term. The Company recognizes fixed lease expense for the operating leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company’s theatre lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. Equipment Leases - The Company has certain equipment operating leases primarily including projectors, trash compactors and various other equipment used in the day-to-day operation of the business. Certain of the leases require fixed lease payments to be made over the duration of the lease term, while others are variable in nature based on usage or sales. Certain of these leases are month-to-month, while others are noncancelable with terms generally ranging from 5 to 12 years. The Company’s equipment lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. The following table represents the operating and finance right-of-use assets and lease liabilities as of March 31, 2019.

The Company does not consider a lease renewal exercise as reasonably certain until immediately before the necessary notification is provided to the landlord. (2) Finance lease assets are net of accumulated amortization of $50,503 as of March 31, 2019. As of March 31, 2019, the Company had signed lease agreements with total noncancelable lease payments of approximately $195,955 related to theatre leases that had not yet commenced. The timing of lease commencement is dependent on the completion of construction of the related theatre facility. Additionally, these amounts are based on estimated square footage and costs to construct each facility and may be subject to adjustment upon final completion of each construction project. In accordance with ASC Topic 842, fixed minimum lease payments related to these theatres are not included in the right of use assets and lease liabilities as of March 31, 2019. There were no significant noncancelable lease agreements signed, but not yet commenced, related to equipment leases. The following table represents the Company’s aggregate lease costs, by lease classification, for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Revenue From Contract With Customer [Abstract]
Revenue Recognition	4. Revenue Recognition The Company’s patrons have the option to purchase movie tickets well in advance of a movie showtime or right before the movie showtime, or at any point in between those two timeframes depending on seat availability. The Company recognizes such admissions revenues when the showtime for a purchased movie ticket has passed. Concession revenues are recognized when sales are made at the registers. Other revenues primarily consist of screen advertising, promotional income and transactional fees. Screen advertising revenues are recognized over the period that the related advertising is delivered on-screen or in-theatre. The Company sells gift cards and discount ticket vouchers, the proceeds from which are recorded as current liabilities. Revenues for gift cards and discount ticket vouchers are recognized when they are redeemed for movie tickets or concession items. The Company offers a subscription program in the U.S. whereby patrons can pay a monthly fee to receive a monthly credit for use towards a future movie ticket purchase. The Company records the monthly subscription program fees as current liabilities and records admissions revenues when the showtime for a movie ticket purchased with a credit has passed. The Company also has loyalty programs in many of its locations that either have a prepaid annual membership fee or award points to customers as purchases are made. For those loyalty programs that have an annual membership fee, the Company recognizes the fee collected as other revenues over the term of the membership. For those loyalty programs that award points to customers based on their purchases, the Company records a portion of the original transaction proceeds as liabilities based on the number of reward points issued to customers and recognizes revenues when the customer redeems such points. Advances collected on long-term screen advertising, concession and other contracts are recorded as deferred revenues. In accordance with the terms of the agreements, the advances collected on such contracts are recognized during the period in which the Company satisfies the related performance obligations, which may differ from the period in which the advances are collected. These advances are recognized on either a straight-line basis over the term of the contracts or as the Company has met its performance obligations in accordance with the terms of the contracts. Accounts receivable as of March 31, 2019 included approximately $34,833 of receivables related to contracts with customers.

(“NCMI”) initial public offering, the Company amended and restated its ESA with NCM and received approximately $174,000 in cash consideration from NCM. The proceeds were recorded as deferred revenue and are being amortized over the term of the modified ESA, or through February 2037. In addition to the consideration received upon the ESA modification during 2007, the Company also receives consideration in the form of common units from NCM, at each annual common unit adjustment settlement, in exchange for exclusive access to the Company’s newly opened domestic screens under the ESA. See Note 8 for additional information regarding the common unit adjustment and related accounting. Due to the significant length of time between receiving the consideration from NCM and fulfillment of the related performance obligation, the ESA includes an implied significant financing component, as per the guidance in ASC Topic 606. As a result of the significant financing component on deferred revenue - NCM, the Company recognized incremental screen advertising revenue and an offsetting interest expense of $4,782 and $4,979 during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The interest expense was calculated using the Company’s incremental borrowing rates at the time when the cash and each tranche of common units were received from NCM, which ranged from 5.5% to 8.0%.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
Earnings Per Share	5. 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: Three Months Ended March 31, 2019 2018 Numerator: Net income attributable to Cinemark Holdings, Inc. $ 32,728 $ 62,021 Earnings allocated to participating share-based awards (1) (183 ) (297 ) Net income attributable to common stockholders $ 32,545 $ 61,724 Denominator (shares in thousands): Basic weighted average common stock outstanding 116,179 115,883 Common equivalent shares for restricted stock units 239 260 Diluted common equivalent shares 116,418 116,143 Basic earnings per share attributable to common stockholders $ 0.28 $ 0.53 Diluted earnings per share attributable to common stockholders $ 0.28 $ 0.53 (1) For the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, a weighted

Debt Disclosure [Abstract]
Long Term Debt Activity	6. Long Term Debt Activity Senior Secured Credit Facility On March 29, 2018, Cinemark USA, Inc., our wholly-owned subsidiary, amended its senior secured credit facility to extend the maturity of the term loan to March 29, 2025, reduce the rate at which the term loan bears interest by 0.25% and to reduce the amount of real property required to be mortgaged to secure the loans. Under the amended facility, quarterly principal payments of $1,649 are due on the term loan through December 31, 2024, with a final principal payment of $613,351 due on March 29, 2025. The Company incurred debt issue costs of approximately $4,962 in connection with the amendment. As a result of the amendment, the Company wrote-off $780 of unamortized debt issue costs and incurred approximately $704 in legal and other fees, both of which are reflected as loss on debt amendments and refinancing on the condensed consolidated statements of income for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Fair Value of Long-Term Debt The Company estimates the fair value of its long-term debt using the market approach, which utilizes quoted market prices that fall under Level 2 of the U.S. GAAP fair value hierarchy as defined by ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement . Interest Rate Swap Agreements The Company is currently a party to three interest rate swap agreements that are used to hedge a portion of the 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 related gains or losses reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. The changes in fair value 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 counterparty to the interest rate swap agreement and the fixed rates that the Company is obligated to pay under the agreement. 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. See Note 13 for a summary of unrealized gains or losses recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss. Below is a summary of the Company’s interest rate swap agreements designated as cash flow hedges as of March 31, 2019: Estimated Fair Value at Notional March 31, Amount Effective Date Pay Rate Receive Rate Expiration Date 2019 (1) $ 175,000 December 31, 2018 2.75% 1-Month LIBOR December 31, 2022 3,665 $ 137,500 December 31, 2018 2.77% 1-Month LIBOR December 31, 2022 2,968 $ 137,500 December 31, 2018 2.75% 1-Month LIBOR December 31, 2022 2,840 Total $ 9,473 (1) Included in other long-term liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2019.

During the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company recorded equity in earnings of $4,394 and $4,015, respectively. Pursuant to a Common Unit Adjustment Agreement dated as of February 13, 2007 between NCMI and the Company, AMC Entertainment, Inc. (“AMC”) and Regal Entertainment Group (“Regal”) (collectively, “Founding Members”), 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 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K, the common units received (collectively referred to as the Company’s “Tranche 2 Investment”) are recorded at estimated fair value as an increase in the Company’s investment in NCM with an offset to deferred revenue.

The Company recorded the additional common units received at estimated fair value with a corresponding adjustment to deferred revenue of approximately $1,552. The fair value of the common units received was estimated based on the market price of NCMI common stock at the time the common units were determined, adjusted for volatility associated with the estimated time period it would take to convert the common units and register the respective shares. The deferred revenue will be recognized on a straight-line basis over the remaining term of the ESA. As of March 31, 2019, the Company owned a total of 39,737,700 common units of NCM, representing an ownership interest of approximately 25%.

Treasury Stock and Share Based Awards	10. Treasury Stock and Share Based Awards Treasury Stock — Treasury stock represents shares of common stock repurchased or withheld by the Company and not yet retired. The Company has applied the cost method in recording its treasury shares. Below is a summary of the Company’s treasury stock activity for the three months ended March 31, 2019: Number of Treasury Shares Cost Balance at January 1, 2019 4,626,191 $ 79,259 Restricted stock withholdings (1) 50,081 1,947 Restricted stock forfeitures 8,808 — Balance at March 31, 2019 4,685,080 $ 81,206 (1) The Company withheld restricted shares as a result of the election by certain employees to satisfy their tax liabilities upon vesting in restricted stock and restricted stock units. The Company determined the number of shares to be withheld based upon market values ranging from $36.81 to $40.32 per share. As of March 31, 2019, the Company had no plans to retire any shares of treasury stock. Restricted Stock – During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company granted 247,342 shares of restricted stock to employees. The fair value of the restricted stock granted was determined based on the market value of the Company’s common stock on the dates of grant, which was $36.77 per share. The Company assumed a 10% forfeiture rate for the restricted stock awards. The restricted stock awards vest over four years. The recipients of restricted stock are entitled to receive non-forfeitable 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, 2019: Shares of Weighted Average Restricted Grant Date Stock Fair Value Outstanding at January 1, 2019 704,353 $ 38.68 Granted 247,342 $ 36.77 Vested (149,976 ) $ 42.69 Forfeited (8,808 ) $ 37.03 Outstanding at March 31, 2019 792,911 $ 37.35 Unvested restricted stock at March 31, 2019 792,911 $ 37.35 March 31, 2019 2018 Compensation expense recognized during the period $ 2,433 $ 2,375 Fair value of restricted shares that vested during the period $ 5,745 $ 7,807 Income tax benefit recognized upon vesting of restricted stock awards $ 1,002 $ 1,399 As of March 31, 2019, the estimated remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested restricted stock awards was $20,815 and the weighted average period over which this remaining compensation expense will be recognized is approximately three years. Restricted Stock Units – During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company granted restricted stock units representing 306,651 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, 2020 based on a formula utilizing a multiple of Adjusted EBITDA subject to certain adjustments as specified by the Compensation Committee prior to the grant date. 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 6%, which is the threshold, one-third of the maximum restricted stock units vest. If the IRR for the two-year period is at least 8%, which is the target, two-thirds of the maximum restricted stock units vest. If the IRR for the two-year period is at least 14%, which is the maximum, 100% of the maximum 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. Further, as an example, if the Company achieves an IRR equal to 11%, the number of restricted stock units that shall vest will be greater than the target but less than the maximum number that would have vested had the Company achieved the highest IRR. All restricted stock units granted during 2019 will vest 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 the fourth anniversary of the grant date. Restricted stock unit award participants are eligible to receive dividend equivalent payments from the grant date if, and at the time that, 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, 2019 Number of Shares Value at Vesting Grant at IRR of at least 6% 136,285 $ 5,011 at IRR of at least 8% 204,427 $ 7,517 at IRR of at least 14% 306,651 $ 11,276 Due to the fact that the IRR for the two-year performance period could not be determined at the time of the 2019 grant, the Company estimated that the most likely outcome is the achievement of the target IRR level. The fair value of the restricted stock unit awards was determined based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, which was $36.77 per share. The Company assumed a forfeiture rate of 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 are expected to vest for the grant and adjust its compensation expense accordingly on a prospective basis over the remaining service period. March 31, 2019 2018 Number of restricted stock unit awards that vested during the period 88,074 125,063 Fair value of restricted stock unit awards that vested during the period $ 3,550 $ 3,594 Accumulated dividends paid upon vesting of restricted stock unit awards $ 375 $ 522 Compensation expense recognized during the period $ 537 $ 1,051 Income tax benefit recognized upon vesting of restricted stock unit awards $ 170 $ 723 During the three months ended March 31, 2019, the Company modified the performance target levels for the restricted stock unit awards granted during February 2017 and February 2018 for all participants other than certain executive officers. The modification adjusted the threshold, target and maximum IRR levels from 7.0%, 9.5% and 13.0%, respectively, to 6.0%, 8.0% and 14.0%, respectively. The Company accounted for the change in performance measures as modifications of each award, and recorded a reduction to compensation expense of $132 during the three months ended March 31, 2019. Simultaneous with the modification of the restricted stock unit awards granted during February 2017, the Company determined that the final IRR reached for the respective measurement period was 9.3%, which resulted in reduction in compensation expense of approximately $563. As of March 31, 2019, the estimated remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to the outstanding restricted stock unit awards was $13,621. The weighted average period over which this remaining compensation expense will be recognized is approximately three years. As of March 31, 2019, the Company had restricted stock units outstanding that represented a total of 554,529 hypothetical shares of common stock, net of forfeitures, assuming an IRR of 7.2% was achieved for the 2016 grants, an IRR of 9.3% was achieved for the 2017 grants, and the maximum IRR level is achieved for all other grants outstanding.

(2) Amount represents purchase price allocation adjustment for theatres acquired in Brazil during 2018. The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment annually during the fourth quarter or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value of the goodwill may not be fully recoverable. 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. Management considers the reporting unit to be each of its nineteen regions in the U.S. and seven countries internationally with Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama and Guatemala considered one reporting unit (the Company does not have goodwill recorded for all of its international locations). For the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company performed a quantitative goodwill impairment assessment on all reporting units, in accordance with ASC Topic 350-20-35. No events or changes in circumstances occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2019 that indicated the carrying value of goodwill might exceed its estimated fair value. Intangible assets consisted of the following: Balance at January 1, 2019 Impact of Adoption of ASC Topic 842 (1) Amortization Other (2) Balance at March 31, 2019 Intangible assets with finite lives: Gross carrying amount $ 105,256 $ (18,024 ) $ — $ (322 ) $ 86,910 Accumulated amortization (74,603 ) 13,597 (1,204 ) ― (62,210 ) Total net intangible assets with finite lives $ 30,653 $ (4,427 ) $ (1,204 ) $ (322 ) $ 24,700 Intangible assets with indefinite lives: Tradename and other 300,257 ― ― (5 ) 300,252 Total intangible assets — net $ 330,910 $ (4,427 ) $ (1,204 ) $ (327 ) $ 324,952 (1) See Note 3 for further discussion of the impact of adoption of ASC Topic 842.

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets	12. 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. See discussion of the Company’s long-lived asset impairment evaluation process in Note 1 to the Company’s financial statements as included in its 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K. As noted in the discussion, 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, 2019 and 2018. As of March 31, 2019, the estimated aggregate fair value of the long-lived assets impaired during the three months ended March 31, 2019 was $3,712. The long-lived asset impairment charges recorded during each of the periods presented are 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.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
Fair Value Measurements	13. Fair Value Measurements The Company determines fair value measurements in accordance with 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 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 liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis by the Company under FASB ASC Topic 820 as of March 31, 2019: Carry Fair Value Description Value Level 1 Level 2 Leve 3 Interest rate swap liabilities $ (9,473 ) $ — $ — $ (9,473 ) Below is a summary of liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis by the Company under FASB ASC Topic 820 as of December 31, 2018: Carry Fair Value Description Value Level 1 Level 2 Leve 3 Interest rate swap liabilities $ (5,093 ) $ — $ — $ (5,093 ) Below is a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balance for liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3): Liabilities (1) 2019 Beginning balance - January 1 $ 5,093 Total loss included in accumulated other comprehensive loss 4,663 Settlements included in interest expense (283 ) Ending balance - March 31 $ 9,473 (1) Represents interest rate swap liabilities. See Note 6 for discussion. The Company uses the market approach for fair value measurements on a nonrecurring basis in the impairment evaluations of its long-lived assets (see Note 11 and Note 12). See additional explanation of fair value measurement techniques used for long-lived assets, goodwill and intangible assets in “Critical Accounting Policies” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2017, filed February 23, 2018.

Foreign Currency Translation	14. Foreign Currency Translation The accumulated other comprehensive loss account in stockholders’ equity of $321,634 and $319,007 as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively, primarily includes cumulative foreign currency adjustments of $314,545 and $315,300, respectively, from translating the financial statements of the Company’s international subsidiaries and the changes in fair values of the Company’s interest rate swap agreements that are designated as hedges. As of March 31, 2019, all foreign countries where the Company has operations, other than Argentina, 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. The Company deemed Argentina to be highly inflationary beginning July 1, 2018. A highly inflationary economy is defined as an economy with a cumulative inflation rate of approximately 100 percent or more over a three-year period. If a country’s economy is classified as highly inflationary, the financial statements of the foreign entity operating in that country must be remeasured to the functional currency of the reporting entity. The financial information of the Company’s Argentina subsidiaries has been remeasured in U.S. dollars in accordance with ASC Topic 830, Foreign Currency Matters Below is a summary of the impact of translating the March 31, 2019 financial statements of the Company’s international subsidiaries: Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) for the Exchange Rate as of Three Months Ended Country March 31, 2019 December 31, 2018 March 31, 2019 March 31, 2018 Brazil 3.93 3.88 $ (2,334 ) $ 391 Argentina (1) 43.37 37.68 — (3,541 ) Chile 680.83 694.74 1,473 1,207 Peru 3.32 3.39 982 182 Colombia 3,175.61 3,249.75 431 1,887 All other 203 78 $ 755 $ 204 (1) Beginning July 1, 2018, Argentina was deemed highly inflationary.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]
Segments	16. Segments The Company manages its international market and its U.S. market as separate reportable operating segments, with the international segment consisting of operations in Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Guatemala, Bolivia, Curacao and Paraguay. Each segment’s revenue is derived from admissions and concession sales and other ancillary revenues. The Company uses Adjusted EBITDA, as shown in the reconciliation table below, as the primary measure of segment profit and loss to evaluate performance and allocate its resources. The Company does not report total assets by segment because that information is not used to evaluate the performance of or allocate resources between segments. Below is a breakdown of selected financial information by reportable operating segment: Three Months Ended March 31, 2019 2018 Revenues U.S. $ 557,798 $ 599,645 International 159,907 183,628 Eliminations (2,982 ) (3,302 ) Total revenues $ 714,723 $ 779,971 Adjusted EBITDA U.S. $ 125,759 $ 155,844 International 26,495 37,586 Total Adjusted EBITDA $ 152,254 $ 193,430 Capital expenditures U.S. $ 52,339 $ 69,971 International 5,230 10,192 Total capital expenditures $ 57,569 $ 80,163 The following table sets forth a reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA: Three Months Ended March 31, 2019 2018 Net income $ 33,193 $ 62,177 Add (deduct): Income taxes 11,917 25,097 Interest expense (1) (2) 25,141 27,115 Other income (3) (8,335 ) (7,273 ) Loss on debt amendments and refinancing — 1,484 Other cash distributions from equity investees (4) 14,342 12,323 Depreciation and amortization (2) 64,462 64,395 Impairment of long-lived assets 5,584 591 Loss on disposal of assets and other 3,799 3,939 Non-cash rent expense (5) (819 ) — Deferred lease expenses (2) — (483 ) Amortization of long-term prepaid rents (2) — 639 Share based awards compensation expense 2,970 3,426 Adjusted EBITDA (2) $ 152,254 $ 193,430 (1) Includes amortization of debt issue costs. (2) Amounts for the three months ended March 31, 2019 were impacted by the adoption of ASC Topic 842 and the resulting change in the classification of certain of the Company’s leases. (3) Includes interest income, foreign currency exchange gain, equity in income of affiliates and interest expense - NCM and excludes distributions from NCM. (4) Includes cash distributions received from equity investees that were recorded as a reduction of the respective investment balances (see Notes 8 and 9). These distributions are reported entirely within the U.S. operating segment. (5) The adoption of ASC Topic 842 impacted how the Company amortizes lease related assets and liabilities such as deferred lease expenses, favorable and unfavorable lease intangible assets, long-term prepaid rents and deferred lease incentives. Beginning January 1, 2019, these items are amortized to facility lease expense for theatre operating leases and utilities and other for equipment operating leases.

Commitments and Contingencies	18. Commitments and Contingencies From time to time, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings arising from the ordinary course of its business operations, such as personal injury claims, employment matters, landlord-tenant disputes, patent claims and contractual disputes, some of which are covered by insurance. The Company believes its potential liability with respect to proceedings currently pending is not material, individually or in the aggregate, to the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows. Silken Brown v. Cinemark USA, Inc., Case No. 3:13cv05669, In the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, San Francisco Division. The case presents putative class action claims for penalties and attorney's fees arising from alleged violations of the California wage statement law. The claim is also asserted as a representative action under the California Private Attorney General Act (PAGA) for penalties. The Court granted class certification. The company denies the claims, denies that class certification is appropriate, denies that the plaintiff has standing to assert the claims alleged and is vigorously defending against the claims. The Company denies any violation of law; however, to avoid the cost and uncertainty associated with litigation the Company and the plaintiff entered into a Joint Stipulation of Class Action Settlement and Release of Claims (the “Settlement Agreement”) to fully and finally dismiss all claims that would be brought in the case. The Settlement Agreement was preliminarily approved by the Court and is subject to final approval later this year. During 2018, the Company recorded a litigation reserve based on the proposed Settlement Agreement. Flagship Theatres of Palm Desert, LLC d/b/a Cinemas Palme D’Or v. Century Theatres, Inc., and Cinemark USA, Inc.; Superior Court of the State of California, County of Los Angeles. Plaintiff in this case alleges that the Company violated California antitrust and unfair competition laws by engaging in “circuit dealing” with various motion picture distributors and tortuously interfered with Plaintiff’s business relationships. Plaintiff seeks compensatory damages, trebling of those damages under California law, punitive damages, injunctive relief, attorneys’ fees, costs and interest. Plaintiff also alleges that the Company’s conduct ultimately resulted in closure of its theatre in June 2016. The Company denied the allegations. In 2008, the Company moved for summary judgment on Plaintiff’s claims, arguing primarily that clearances between the theatres at issue were lawful and that Plaintiff lacked proof sufficient to support certain technical elements of its antitrust claims. The trial court granted that motion and dismissed Plaintiff’s claims. Plaintiff appealed and, in 2011, the Court of Appeal reversed, holding, among other things, that Plaintiff’s claims were not about the illegality of clearances but were focused, instead, on “circuit dealing.” Having re-framed the claims in that manner, the Court of Appeal held that the trial court’s decision to limit discovery to the market where the theatres at issue operated was an error, as “circuit dealing” necessarily involves activities in different markets. Upon return to the trial court, the parties engaged in additional, broadened discovery related to Plaintiff’s “circuit dealing” claim. Thereafter, the Company moved again for summary judgment on all of Plaintiff’s claims. That new motion for summary judgment was pending when, on or about April 11, 2014, the trial court granted the Company’s motion for terminating sanctions and entered a judgment dismissing the case with prejudice. Plaintiff then appealed that second dismissal, seeking to have the judgment reversed and the case remanded to the trial court. The Court of Appeal issued a ruling on May 24, 2016, reversing the granting of terminating sanctions and instead imposed a lesser evidentiary and damages preclusion sanction. The case returned to the trial court on October 6, 2016. On May 10, 2018, after a five-week jury trial, the jury found no liability on one circuit dealing claim and awarded Plaintiff damages on the other claim, which are tripled for antitrust damage awards. Plaintiff would also be entitled to certain court costs and to seek at least some portion of its attorney’s fees. During 2018, the Company recorded a litigation reserve based on the jury award and an estimate of court costs and attorney’s fees. The trial court denied a motion for a judgment notwithstanding the verdict and a motion for a new trial. The Company intends to appeal the judgment. Although the Company denies that it engaged in any form of circuit dealing, it cannot predict the outcome of its pending motions or future appeals. Civil Investigative Demand The Company received a Civil Investigative Demand (“CID”) from the Antitrust Division of the United States Department of Justice. The CID relates to an investigation under Sections 1 and 2 of the Sherman Act. The Company also received CIDs from the Antitrust Section of the Office of the Attorney General of the State of Ohio and later from other states regarding similar inquiries under state antitrust laws. The CIDs request the Company to answer interrogatories, and produce documents, or both, related to the investigation of matters including film clearances, potential coordination and/or communication with other major theatre circuits and related joint ventures. The Company intends to fully cooperate with all federal and state government agencies. Although the Company does not believe that it has violated any federal or state antitrust or competition laws, it cannot predict the ultimate scope, duration or outcome of these investigations.
