Global Network Update (Table 3)

The total IMAX® theater network consisted of 1,541 systems as of June 30, 2019, of which 1,445 were in commercial multiplexes. Including upgrades, there were 612 theaters in backlog as of June 30, 2019, compared to the 635 in backlog as of June 30, 2018.

IMAX also signed contracts for 54 new theaters and 19 upgrades in the second quarter of 2019, reflecting the strong demand for our systems. During the quarter, the Company installed 35 theater systems, 27 of which were for new theater locations. For a breakdown of theater system signings, backlog, installations, and network by type for the second quarter of 2019, please refer toTable 3 at the end of this earnings release.

Second Quarter Consolidated Results

The gross margin across all segments in the second quarter of 2019 was $59.6 million, or 56.8% of total revenues, compared to $60.4 million, or 61.4% of total revenues, in the second quarter of 2018. The slight decline in gross margin was driven by higher cost of revenues in our Network and Theater businesses, as well as a decline in revenues in our New Business segment as a result of a residualone-time payment to the Company of $2.6 million in the prior year period related to our discontinued virtual reality initiative. Operating expenses (which includes SG&A, excluding stock-based compensation, plus R&D) were $26.8 million in the quarter representing an 10.9% decline from the prior year period.

Second Quarter Segment Results (Tables 1 and 7)

Network Business

· Network business revenues increased 6.3% to $64.7 million in the quarter, compared with $60.9 million in the prior-year period. The $3.8 million increase in revenues was driven principally by a $3.1 million, or 8.7%, increase in IMAX DMR revenues and a $0.6 million, or 2.3% increase in revenues from joint revenue-sharing arrangements. The strong increase in IMAX DMR revenues was driven by a $22.3 million increase in IMAX global box office.

· The blended take-rate (defined as total Network revenue divided by total IMAX global box office) for IMAX DMR and joint revenue sharing arrangements was 17.7% in the quarter, compared to 17.8% in the prior year period. The slight decline is due to mix of global box office, including the strong performance of Greater China.

· Gross margin for the Network business was 66.8%, compared to 70.5% in the prior-year period. The decline in gross margin for the business was due to higher contractual marketing costs driven by the strong performance of

2

Avengers: Endgame, as well as a 50% increase in the number of releases in the quarter from the 10 new films released in the prior year period.

Theater Business

· Theater business segment revenues increased 13.2% to $34.9 million in the quarter, compared with $30.9 million in the prior year period. The $4.1 million increase in revenues was driven principally by the higher number of installations in the quarter, as well as higher maintenance revenue on our expanded commercial theater network, partially offset by lower financing revenue. The commercial theater network increased 10.0% to 1,445 commercial multiplex theaters in the current quarter. (Please refer toTable 3 for detail on our signings, installations and theater network at the end of this earnings release).

· The average revenue per new theater system was $1.3 million, compared to $1.2 million in the prior year period.

· Gross margin on sales and sales-type leases was 38.5% compared to 57.6% in the prior year period. The decline in gross margin is due principally to the mix of systems installed in the current quarter, compared to the prior year, as well as the Company’s decision to allocate additional resources to ensure the successful roll out and launch of its new IMAX with Laser® technology. For full-year 2019, the Company anticipates margins on sales type theaters to return to approximately 50%.

Cash Balances and Outstanding Debt (Table 5)

Total cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2019 was $106.5 million, which includes $64.9 million held in the People’s Republic of China. Total bank indebtedness was $23.0 million as of June 30, 2019, including the impact of $2.0 million of deferred financing fees, and represented a decrease of $14.8 million from $37.8 million at December 31, 2018. As of June 30, 2019, $275.0 million is available under the $300.0 million credit facility in place due June 28, 2023.

Share Count and Capital Return

The weighted average diluted shares outstanding in second quarter 2019 declined 3.0% to 61.5 million, compared to 63.4 million in second quarter 2018, due to share repurchase activity. In the second quarter of 2019, a total of 87,769 shares were repurchased at an average price of $19.45 for a total value of $1.7 million. A total of $126.9 million is available under the outstanding share repurchase authorization, which expires on June 30, 2020. Total shares outstanding as of June 30, 2019 was 61.3 million.

Full-Year 2019 Guidance

IMAX’s guidance for full-year 2019 is as follows:

· IMAX global box office is expected to experience low double-digit growth compared to the $1,032.1 million recorded in full-year 2018.

· Operating expenses, defined as selling, general and administrative expenses less stock-based compensation plus research and development costs are expected to bein-line with the $110.7 million recorded in full-year 2018.

· The effective tax rate is expected to be approximately 23%.

· Adjusted EBITDA margin is expected to be approximately 41% to 42%.

· Total theater installations are expected in the range of 185 to 190, consisting of new theater installs of 140 to 145 systems and upgrades to IMAX with Laser of approximately 45 systems. New theater installs are heavily weighted toward the fourth quarter of 2019.

Primary Reporting Groups

The Company has four primary reporting groups identified by nature of product sold or service provided: (1) Network Business, representing variable revenue generated bybox-office results and which includes the reportable segments of IMAX DMR and contingent rent from the JRSAs and IMAX systems segments; (2) Theater Business, representing revenue generated by the sale and installation of theater systems and maintenance services, primarily related to the IMAX Systems and Theater System Maintenance reportable segments, and also includes fixed hybrid revenues and upfront installation costs from the JRSA segment; (3) New Business, which includes home entertainment, and other new business initiatives that are in the development,start-up and/orwind-up phases, and (4) Other; which includes the film post-production and distribution segments and certain IMAX theaters that the Company owns and operates, camera rentals and other miscellaneous items.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In this release, the Company presents adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share, adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders and adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders per diluted share, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA per Credit Facility and free cash flow as supplemental measures of performance of the Company, which are not recognized under U.S. GAAP. The Company presents adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share because it believes that they are important supplemental measures of its comparable controllable operating performance and it wants to ensure that its investors fully understand the impact of its stock-based compensation (net of any related tax impact) andnon-recurring charges on net income. In addition, the Company presents adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders and adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders per diluted share because it believes that they are important supplemental measures of its comparable financial results and could potentially distort

the analysis of trends in business performance and it wants to ensure that its investors fully understand the impact of net income attributable tonon-controlling interests and its stock-based compensation (net of any related tax impact) andnon-recurring charges in determining net income attributable to common shareholders. Management uses these measures to review operating performance on a comparable basis from period to period. However, thesenon-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts reported by other companies. Adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share, adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders and adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders per diluted share should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, net income and net income attributable to common shareholders and other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The Company is required to maintain a minimum level of “EBITDA”, as such term is defined in the Company’s credit agreement (and which is referred to herein as “Adjusted EBITDA per Credit Facility”, as the credit agreement includes additional adjustments beyond interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization). EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per Credit Facility (each as defined below) should not be construed as substitutes for net income or as better measures of liquidity as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company believes that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per Credit Facility are relevant and useful information widely used by analysts, investors and other interested parties in the Company’s industry.

Free cash flow is defined as cash provided by operating activities minus cash used in investing activities (from the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows). Cash provided by operating activities consist of net income, plus depreciation and amortization, plus the change in deferred income taxes, plus othernon-cash items, plus changes in working capital, less investment in film assets, plus other changes in operating assets and liabilities. Cash used in investing activities includes capital expenditures, acquisitions and other cash used in investing activities. Management views free cash flow, anon-GAAP measure, as a measure of the Company’safter-tax cash flow available to reduce debt, add to cash balances, and fund other financing activities. Free cash flow does not represent residual cash flow available for discretionary expenditures. A reconciliation of cash provided by operating activities to free cash flow is presented in Table 6.
