READING INTERNATIONAL, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
‎As of and for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2025

 

NOTE 1 – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SEGMENT REPORTING

Our Company

Reading International, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“RDI” and collectively with our consolidated subsidiaries and corporate predecessors, the “Company,” “Reading,” and “we,” “us,” or “our”) was incorporated in 1999. Our businesses consist primarily of:

the development, ownership, and operation of cinemas in the United States, Australia, and New Zealand; and

the development, ownership, operation and/or rental of retail, commercial and live venue real estate assets in Australia, New Zealand, and the United States.

 

NOTE 2 – LIQUIDITY AND IMPAIRMENT ASSESSMENT

Going Concern

We continue to evaluate the going concern assertion required by ASC 205-40 Going Concern as it relates to our Company. The evaluation of the going concern assertion involves considering whether it is probable that our Company has sufficient resources, as at the issue date of the financial statements, to meet its obligations as they fall due for twelve months following the issue date. Should it be probable that there are not sufficient resources, we must determine whether it is probable that our plans will be effectively implemented and will mitigate the consequential going concern substantial doubt. Our evaluation is informed by current liquidity positions, debt obligations, our beliefs about the marketability of certain real estate properties, our beliefs about the recovery of the global cinema industry, cash flow estimates, known capital and other expenditure requirements and commitments and our current business plan and strategies. Our Company’s business plan - two businesses (real estate and cinema) in three countries (Australia, New Zealand and the U.S.) - has served us well historically and is key to management’s overall evaluation of ASC 205-40 Going Concern.

We have $53.7 million of debt due in twelve months, cash of $8.3 million and negative working capital of $108.7 million. This net negative working capital position includes land and property held for sale of $18.0 million (based on book value, as opposed to fair market value). Management has concluded that going concern uncertainty exists.

As a result, we have developed a plan to address and overcome the going concern uncertainty. Our plan is informed by current liquidity positions, debt obligations, our beliefs about the marketability of certain real estate properties, our beliefs about the recovery of the global cinema industry, cash flow estimates, known capital and other expenditure requirements and commitments and our current business plan and strategies.

While we believe that, with an increase in the quantity and quality of films being released to cinemas compared to pre-pandemic levels, patronage and operating revenue levels will improve, we have no control over attendance levels and no assurances can be given as to the nature of the reception of future movies by the movie-going public.

We have begun the process of refinancing and/or extending certain loans. On January 31, 2025, we repaid our $10.5 million Westpac loan. On February 5, 2025, we repaid $6.1 million of our Bank of America facility, taking the balance to $8.7 million. This loan is due on August 18, 2025. On February 26, 2025, we exercised our option to extend our Valley National debt to October 1, 2025. Our $12.5 million NAB bridging facility matures on May 23, 2025, which we expect to repay upon the anticipated sale of our Cannon Park property, currently scheduled to close on May 21, 2025. We are currently under an unconditional contract to sell our Cannon Park property for AU$32.0 million. On May 2, 2025, we extended our Emerald Creek Capital loan to November 6, 2026, as further discussed in Note 13 - Borrowings.

Moreover, we intend to raise the liquidity necessary for the next twelve months from real estate asset monetization. We believe we have more than sufficient marketable real estate assets that can be monetized on a timely basis and at the values required to meet our funding needs over the next twelve months. After having sold eight separate property assets since 2021, we have demonstrated our ability to complete real estate asset monetizations.

In conclusion, as of the date of issuance of these financial statements, based on our evaluation of ASC 205-40 Going Concern and the current conditions and events, considered in the aggregate, and our various plans for enhancing liquidity and the extent to which those plans are progressing, we conclude that our plan to raise sufficient liquidity primarily through certain real estate asset monetizations to the extent needed is probable of being implemented to the extent required such that this alleviates the substantial doubt about our Company’s ability to continue as a going concern.

Impairment Considerations

Our Company considers that the events and factors described above constitute impairment indicators under ASC 360 Property, Plant and Equipment. At December 31, 2024, our Company performed a quantitative recoverability test of the carrying values of all its asset groups. Our Company estimated the undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of these asset groups and found that no impairment charge was necessary. While our first three months of 2025 produced lower revenues and operating income compared to the same period in 2024, we believe our improved performance at an asset group level will resume in the remainder of 2025. As a result, we recorded no impairment charges for the first three months of 2025. Actual performance against our forecasts is dependent on several variables and conditions, many of which are subject to the uncertainties associated with among other things, the factors presented above, and as a result, actual results may materially differ from management’s estimates.

Our Company also considers that the events and factors described above continue to constitute impairment indicators under ASC 350 Intangibles – Goodwill and Other. Our Company performed a quantitative goodwill impairment test and determined that our goodwill was not impaired as of December 31, 2024. The test was performed at a reporting unit level by comparing each reporting unit’s carrying value, including goodwill, to its fair value. The fair value of each reporting unit was assessed using a discounted cash flow model based on the budgetary revisions performed by management in response to COVID-19 and the developing market conditions. No impairment charges were recorded in the first three months of 2025. Actual performance against our forecasts is dependent on several variables and conditions, including among other things, the factors presented above, and as a result, actual results may materially differ from management’s estimates.

 

NOTE 3 – SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Consolidation

The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of our Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries as well as majority-owned subsidiaries that our Company controls and should be read in conjunction with our Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as of and for the year ended December 31, 2024 (“2024 Form 10-K”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated on consolidation. These consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim reporting with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). As such, they do not include all information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. We believe that we have included all normal and recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for the interim period.

Operating results for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto. Significant estimates include (i) projections we make regarding the recoverability and impairment of our assets (including goodwill and intangibles), (ii) valuations of our derivative instruments, (iii) recoverability of our deferred tax assets, (iv) estimation of breakage and redemption experience rates, which drive how we recognize breakage on our gift card and gift certificates, and revenue from our customer loyalty program, and (v) estimation of our Incremental Borrowing Rate (“IBR”) as relates to the valuation of our right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. Actual results may differ from those estimates.

 

NOTE 4 – SEGMENT REPORTING

We report information about operating segments in accordance with ASC 280-10 Segment Reporting, which requires financial information to be reported based on the way management organizes segments with a company for making operating decisions and evaluating performance. We have organized our business into two reportable segments, being cinema exhibition and real estate.

Our cinema exhibition segment aggregates all our cinemas, both leased and owned, across the United States, Australia and New Zealand. Each of our cinemas earns revenue through the sale of movie tickets, food and beverage, screen advertising, theater rentals, merchandise, gift card and loyalty membership, and other ancillary sales. The segment also earns revenue through service fees related to online ticket sales. Expenses are incurred through film rent, wages and salaries, food and beverage costs, occupancy costs, utilities, and other ancillary costs. We further organize this segment by geography, as while all our cinemas are engaged in substantially the same business activities, each geography is subject to its own unique regulatory and business conditions.

Our real estate segment aggregates all our retail, commercial and live venue real estate assets across Australia, New Zealand, and the United States. Our retail and commercial real estate assets earn revenue through the leasing or licensing of space to third party tenants.

Our live theater assets in the United States earn revenue through leasing or licensing space to third party production companies, an activity we consider sufficiently similar to our broader real estate base to support inclusion in our real estate segment. Our live theatre operations also earn revenue by providing front of house and box office services and through concession sale of food and beverage.

 

8


All of our real estate assets incur expenses from property maintenance, utilities, taxes, and other costs of maintaining real estate and in some cases third party property management. Most of our real estate is currently self-managed.

Each of these segments has discrete and separate financial information and for which operating results are evaluated regularly by our President, Chief Executive Officer and Vice Chair of Board and Director, the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) of the Company. The CODM is responsible for the allocation of resources to, and the assessment of the performance of, our operating segments. The CODM determines, among other things:

-the execution, renewal or termination of cinema leases

-the execution, renewal or termination of third-party tenant leases

-significant capital expenditures

-internal resource allocation

-operational budgets.

Segment operating income is a key measure of profit or loss used by the CODM to assess segment performance and allocate resources. Segment operating income includes certain amounts charged by our real estate segment to our cinema exhibition segment where a cinema exhibition is a tenant of the real estate segment. These charges are eliminated for consolidated financial statement purposes in the consolidated income statement, but are presented gross to the CODM. We do not report asset information by segment because that information is not used to evaluate the performance or allocate resources between segments.

The tables below summarize the results of operations for each of our business segments, presenting a reconciliation of segment revenue to operating segment income, and the impact of inter-segment transactions.

NOTE 5 – OPERATIONS IN FOREIGN CURRENCY

We have significant assets in Australia and New Zealand. Historically, we have conducted our Australian and New Zealand operations (collectively “foreign operations”) on a self-funding basis, where we use cash flows generated by our foreign operations to pay for the expenses of those foreign operations. However, in recent periods, cash flows from our overseas operations have been used to cover our domestic general and administrative costs, interest expense, and losses from our domestic cinema operations. Our Australian and New Zealand assets and liabilities are translated from their functional currencies of Australian dollar (“AU$”) and New Zealand dollar (“NZ$”), respectively, to the U.S. dollar based on the exchange rate as of March 31, 2025. The carrying value of the assets and liabilities of our foreign operations fluctuates as a result of changes in the exchange rates between the functional currencies of the foreign operations and the U.S. dollar. The translation adjustments are accumulated in the Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

We take a global view of our financial resources and are flexible in making use of resources from one jurisdiction in other jurisdictions.

NOTE 6 – EARNINGS PER SHARE

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

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

Outstanding awards of 2,410,639 shares for the period ended March 31, 2025 and 1,324,698 shares for the period ended March 31, 2024 were excluded from the computation of dilutive shares, as they were anti-dilutive because of the net loss from continuing operations.

2025 Real Estate Monetizations

In order to support our liquidity, we have monetized certain of our real estate holdings. During 2024 and the first quarter of 2025 we sold two held for sale properties. In the first quarter of 2024, we monetized our office building in Culver City for $10.0 million. In the first quarter of 2025, we monetized our properties in Wellington, New Zealand for $21.5 million. In the second quarter of 2023, we classified our 2483 Trenton Avenue, Williamsport, Pennsylvania, property as held for sale. In May 2024, we classified our Cannon Park, Townsville, Queensland, Australia property as held for sale.

A ‘disposal group’ represents assets to be disposed of in a single transaction. A disposal group may represent a single asset, or, multiple assets. Discussed below are those real estate transactions affecting the presentation in our consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, and the profitability determination in our consolidated statements of income for the three months ended March 31, 2025, and 2024.

Courtenay Central, Wellington, New Zealand

In June 2024, we classified our property assets in Wellington, New Zealand including Courtenay Central, as held for sale at the lower of cost and fair value less costs to sell. The disposal group consisted of our Courtenay Central cinema and retail property, along with our Tory and Wakefield Street car parks. Our book value (as opposed to fair value) of the property was $14.7 million. No adjustments to the book value of the assets were required upon classification as held for sale. The sale was completed on January 31, 2025, when control of the property ceded to the buyer, at a gross sale price of $21.5 million. The proceeds were used to pay off the Westpac mortgage on the property.

The disposal group consists of our Cannon Park City Center and Cannon Park Discount Center properties, comprising approximately 9.4-acres. The current book value (as opposed to fair value) of the property is $17.5 million. No adjustments to the book value of the assets contained within this disposal group were required. The disposal group is currently subject to an unconditional contract of sale, expected to close in May 2025.

Newberry Yard, Williamsport, Pennsylvania

In June 2023, we classified our industrial property at Newberry Yard, Williamsport, Pennsylvania, as held for sale at the lower of cost and fair value less costs to sell. The current book value (as opposed to fair value) of the property is $460,000. The property is part of our historic railroad operations, consisting of land and an industrial building, and certain rail bed improvements. No adjustments to the book value of the assets contained within this disposal group were required. Sales efforts continue, and the property continues to meet the ASC 360 held for sale criteria.

 

Note 8 – Leases

In all leases, whether we are the lessor or lessee, we define lease term as the non-cancellable term of the lease plus any renewals covered by renewal options that are reasonably certain of exercise based on our assessment of economic factors relevant to the lessee. The non-cancellable term of the lease commences on the date the lessor makes the underlying property in the lease available to the lessee, irrespective of when lease payments begin under the contract.

As Lessee

We have operating leases for certain cinemas, and finance leases for certain equipment assets. Our leases have remaining lease terms of 1 to 25 years, with certain leases having options to extend up to a further 20 years. Lease payments for our cinema operating leases consist of fixed base rent, and for certain leases, variable lease payments consisting of contracted percentages of revenue, changes in the relevant CPI, and/or other contracted financial metrics.

As Lessor

We have entered into various leases as a lessor for our owned real estate properties. These leases vary in length between 1 and 20 years, with certain leases containing options to extend at the behest of the applicable tenants. Lease components consist of fixed base rent, and for certain leases, variable lease payments consisting of contracted percentages of revenue, changes in the relevant CPI, and/or other contracted financial metrics. None of our leases grant any right to the tenant to purchase the underlying asset.

Our Company is required to test goodwill and other intangible assets for impairment on an annual basis and, if current events or circumstances require them, on an interim basis. Our next annual evaluation of goodwill and other intangible assets is scheduled during the fourth quarter of 2025. To test the impairment of goodwill, our Company compares the fair value of each reporting unit to its carrying amount, including the goodwill, to determine if there is potential goodwill impairment. A reporting unit is generally one level below the operating segment. As of March 31, 2025, we were not aware that any events indicating potential impairment of goodwill had occurred outside of those described at Note 2 – Liquidity and Impairment Assessment.

Note 12 – Income Taxes

The interim provision for income taxes is different from the amount determined by applying the U.S. federal statutory rate to consolidated income or loss before taxes.  The differences are attributable to foreign tax rate differential, unrecognized tax benefits, and change in valuation allowance. Our effective tax rate was 8.7% and 1.6% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.  The difference is primarily due to a decrease in reserve for valuation allowance in 2025.  The forecasted effective tax rate is updated each quarter as new information becomes available.

Bank of America Credit Facility

As at December 31, 2023, our Bank of America facility matured on September 4, 2024, following a Q1 2023 loan modification, which, among other things, extended the maturity date from March 1, 2024 to September 4, 2024.

We amended this facility on March 27, 2024, to among other terms and conditions, (i) extend the Maturity Date to August 18, 2025, (ii) require a $275,000 principal paydown, (iii) eliminate the minimum liquidity covenant, (iv) reduce the principal amortization amounts and provide a principal holiday period, and (v) require certain paydowns on the sale of certain real estate assets. Interest is charged at 2.5% above the Bank of America Prime rate, which itself has a floor of 1.0%. Payment-in-kind interest at a rate of 0.5% commenced on January 1, 2024, and continued until December 31, 2024, increasing to 1.5% on January 1, 2025, until the facility is repaid in full. This loan is subject to mandatory prepayment out of a portion of the net proceeds realized by us in the event that we determine to sell certain specified assets. In October 2024, we amended this facility to defer the monthly principal payments required in October, November and December, to the end of 2024. All deferred payments were made as contracted. Upon the sale of our Wellington Property assets including Courtenay Central, we repaid $6.1 million of this facility on February 5, 2025.

On April 3, 2025, we amended our Bank of America facility to defer certain scheduled pay downs, which are now payable upon the earlier of May 16, 2025 and the sale of our Cannon Park property.

Minetta and Orpheum Theatres Loan

On August 1, 2024, we extended the maturity of our $8.0 million loan with Santander Bank, which is secured by our Minetta and Orpheum Theaters. It had previously matured on June 1, 2024. The extended facility now matures on June 1, 2025, requires monthly principal and interest payments with a balloon payment of $7.7 million on maturity, and carries an interest rate of 7.0%.

Cinemas 1,2,3 Term Loan

Our Cinemas 1,2,3 Term Loan is held by Sutton Hill Properties LLC (“SHP”), a 75% owned subsidiary of RDI. On February 26, 2025, we exercised the last of our extension options on this loan, taking the maturity to October 1, 2025. The loan is with Valley National Bank, which carries an interest rate of 5.0% above monthly SOFR, with a floor of 7.50%.

Union Square Financing

Our $55.0 million loan facility, executed in 2021 with Emerald Creek Capital, is secured by our 44 Union Square property and certain limited guarantees. It bears a variable interest rate of TERM SOFR plus 6.9% and includes provisions for a prepaid interest and property tax reserve fund. On April 23, 2024, we executed the first twelve month extension on this loan, taking the maturity to May 6, 2025.

On May 2, 2025, we extended the maturity date of this loan to November 6, 2026, with one option to extend further to May 6, 2027. The extension includes principal payments of $500,000 on or before May 21, 2025 and February 6, 2026. This modification reduced the facility limit from $55.0 million $49.0 million.

Debt denominated in foreign currencies

Westpac Bank Corporate Credit Facility (NZ)

We repaid our Westpac Bank Corporate Credit Facility in full on January 31, 2025.

Australian NAB Corporate Term Loan (AU)

Prior to March 31, 2024, our Revolving Corporate Markets Loan Facility with National Australia Bank (“NAB”) matured on July 31, 2025. It consisted of (i) an AU$100.0 million Corporate Loan facility at 1.75% above BBSY, of which AU $60.0 million was revolving and AU$40.0 million was core and (ii) a Bank Guarantee Facility of AU$5.0 million at a rate of 1.9% per annum.

 

On April 4, 2024, we amended this facility, which now matures on July 31, 2026. As part of the amendment, we obtained an additional AU$20.0 million bridge facility (the “Bridge Loan”) which initially matured on March 31, 2025 (or earlier, upon the sale of certain assets), and modified certain covenants. We are also required, from March 31, 2025, to make quarterly repayments of AU$1.5 million against the AU$100.0 million Corporate Loan facility, until maturity date, representing permanent reductions in that facility’s ceiling. No other changes were made. We have from time to time extended (most recently on May 14, 2025) the maturity date of the Bridge Loan to reflect the intent that the loan be repaid out of the proceeds from the sale of Cannon Park. The Bridge Loan currently matures on May 23, 2025 reflecting a May 21, 2025 anticipated closing date for the sale of our Cannon Park property. On April 2, 2025, we executed an amendment that among other things, increased the bank guarantee facility from AU$3.0 million to AU$4.0 million.

Effective June 28, 2024, we entered into an Interest Rate Hedging Agreement with NAB on AU$50.0 million of the Corporate Loan Facility with a termination date of July 31, 2026. The Interest Rate Collar transaction has a floor of 4.18% and a cap of 4.78%.

Note 16 – Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation Matters

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

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

Where we are the defendants, we accrue for probable damages that insurance may not cover as they become known and can be reasonably estimated, as permitted under ASC 450-20 Loss Contingencies. In our opinion, any claims and litigation in which we are currently involved are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial position, or liquidity. It is possible, however, that future results of the operations for any particular quarterly or annual period could be materially affected by the ultimate outcome of the legal proceedings. From time to time, we are involved with claims and lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of our business that may include contractual obligations, insurance claims, tax claims, employment matters, and anti-trust issues, among other matters.

Environmental and Asbestos Claims on Reading Legacy Operations

Certain of our subsidiaries were historically involved in railroad operations, coal mining, and manufacturing. Also, certain of these subsidiaries appear in the chain-of-title of properties that may suffer from pollution. Accordingly, certain of these subsidiaries have, from time to time, been named in and may in the future be named in various actions brought under applicable environmental laws. Also, we are in the real estate development business and may encounter from time-to-time environmental conditions at properties that we have acquired for development and which will need to be addressed in the future as part of the development process. These environmental conditions can increase the cost of such projects and adversely affect the value and potential for profit of such projects. We do not currently believe that our exposure under applicable environmental laws is material in amount.

From time to time, there are claims brought against us relating to the exposure of former employees to asbestos and/or coal dust. These are generally covered by an insurance settlement reached in September 1990 with our insurance providers. However, this insurance settlement does not cover litigation by people who were not employees of our historic railroad operations and who may claim direct or second-hand exposure to asbestos, coal dust and/or other chemicals or elements now recognized as potentially causing cancer in humans.

 

22


Our known exposure to these types of claims, asserted or probable of being asserted, is not material.

Note 18 – Stock-Based Compensation and Stock Repurchases

Employee and Director Stock Incentive Plan

2020 Stock Incentive Plan

On November 4, 2020, our Company enacted the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan, which was also approved by our Company’s stockholders on December 8, 2020 (as amended, the “2020 Plan”). Under the 2020 Plan, the number of permitted authorized shares for issuance was originally set at 1,250,000, plus any shares reserved for awards outstanding under the 2010 Plan that were subsequently forfeited (for instance, through a then outstanding out of the money option) or if the related shares are repurchased, a corresponding number of shares would automatically become available for issuance under the 2020 Plan.

 

23


On December 7, 2023, our Company’s stockholders, upon recommendation of our Company’s board of directors, approved the First Amendment to the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan, increasing the number of shares of Class A Common Stock reserved for issuance under the 2020 Plan by an additional 971,807 shares. On December 5, 2024, the Company’s stockholders, upon recommendation of the Company’s board of directors, approved the Second Amendment to the 2020 Stock Incentive Plan, increasing the number of Class A Common Stock reserved for issuance under the 2020 Plan by an additional 3,500,000 shares.

Under the 2020 Plan, the Company may grant stock options and other share-based payment awards of our Class A Common Stock to eligible employees, directors and consultants. At March 31, 2025, there were 5,721,807 shares of Class A Common Stock available for issuance under the 2020 Plan.

Stock options are granted at exercise prices equal to the grant-date market prices and typically expire on either the fifth or tenth anniversary of the grant date. In contrast to a stock option where the grantee buys our Company’s share at an exercise price determined on the grant date, a restricted stock unit (“RSU”) entitles the grantee to receive one share for every RSU based on a vesting plan, typically between one year and four years from grant. As discussed further below, a performance component has been added to certain of the RSUs or options granted to management. At the time the options are exercised or RSUs vest and are settled, at the discretion of management, we will issue treasury shares or make a new issuance of shares to the option or RSU holder.

Stock Options

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

For the quarter ended March 31, 2025, we recorded a compensation expense of $299,000, with respect to our prior stock option grants. For the quarter ended March 31, 2024, we recorded a compensation expense of $49,000, with respect to our prior stock option grants At March 31, 2025, the total unrecognized estimated compensation expense related to non-vested stock options was $470,000, which we expect to recognize over a weighted average vesting period of 0.75 years. The intrinsic, unrealized value of all options outstanding vested and expected to vest, at March 31, 2025, was nil, as the closing price of our Class A Common Stock on that date was $1.39.

The following table summarizes the number of options outstanding and exercisable as of March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024:

Time vested RSU awards to management typically vest 25% on the anniversary of the grant date and the remainder over a period of four years. Beginning in 2020, a performance component has been added to certain management equity grants, which vest on the third anniversary of their grant date based on the achievement of certain performance metrics. From 2021 onwards, RSUs have two vesting structures, which include time vesting and performance vesting. The majority of RSUs vest 75% evenly over a period of four years, with the remaining 25% contingent upon the achievement of certain performance metrics, vesting in full on the third anniversary of the date of the grant. In the case of our Chief Executive Officer, RSUs vest 50% evenly over a period of four years with the remaining 50%, contingent upon the achievement of certain performance metrics, vesting in full on the third anniversary of the grant date. In 2024, our Board of Directors determined that our Company was not in a position to pay cash bonuses that would have been otherwise earned by our executive officers.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2025, we recorded compensation expense of $301,000. For the quarter ended March 31, 2024, we recorded compensation expense of $628,000. The total unrecognized compensation expense related to the non-vested RSUs was $3.0 million as of March 31, 2025, which we expect to recognize over a weighted average vesting period of 0.85 years.

Stock Repurchase Program

Our Stock Repurchase Program expired on March 10, 2024. It has not been renewed. No stock has been repurchased by our Company since March 10, 2020.  

 

Note 19 – Hedge Accounting

As of March 31, 2025, our Company held derivative instruments to the notional value of $31.2 million (AU$50.0 million). As of December 31, 2024, our Company held derivatives in the total notional amount of $33.0 million (AU$50.0 million).

Note 20 – Fair Value Measurements

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

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

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

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

The following tables summarize our financial liabilities that are carried at cost and measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis as of March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, by level within the fair value hierarchy.

The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used to estimate the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities. There have been no changes in the methodologies used as of March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024.

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

Level 2 derivative financial instruments are valued based on discounted cash flow models that incorporate observable inputs such as interest rates and yield curves from the derivative counterparties. The credit valuation adjustments associated with our non-performance risk and counterparty credit risk are incorporated in the fair value estimates of our derivatives. As of March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, we concluded that the credit valuation adjustments were not significant to the overall valuation of our derivatives.

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

Our Company’s financial instruments also include cash, cash equivalents, receivables and accounts payable. The carrying values of these financial instruments approximate the fair values due to their short maturities. Additionally, there were no transfers of assets and liabilities between levels 1, 2, or 3 during the quarter ended March 31, 2025, and March 31, 2024.

Note 21 – Subsequent Events

On April 2, we executed an amendment with NAB that, among other things, increased the bank guarantee facility from AU$3.0 million to AU$4.0 million. On April 29, 2025, we executed a further amendment with NAB that extended the repayment of the Bridge Loan until May 14, 2025. On May 14, 2025, we received confirmation from NAB that the Bridge Loan would be further extended until May 23, 2025.

On April 3, 2025, we amended our Bank of America facility to defer certain scheduled pay downs. See Note 13 – Borrowings.

On April 15, 2025, we closed our Town Square cinema in San Diego, California.

On May 2, 2025, we extended our Emerald Creek Capital loan to November 6, 2026, with a further six month option to extend. See Note 13 – Borrowings.

Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The MD&A should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and related notes in this Report.

Business Overview & Updates

While our performance this quarter was not as strong as we had originally anticipated, especially in comparison to the first quarter of 2024, we remain optimistic about the direction of our cinema business and the cinema industry as a whole. Performances for the first quarter of 2025 from films such as Captain America: Brave New World and Disney’s Snow White did not meet industry expectations.

However, looking to the second quarter of 2025, A Minecraft Movie and Sinners have already exceeded industry expectations and have created momentum for the industry. Additionally, we are encouraged about the long-term prospects of the cinema industry for a variety of reasons, including

(i) the current movie release schedule from 2025 to 2027, reflecting a notable increase in quality tentpole films, such as Superman (2025), Fantastic Four (2025), and Jurassic World: Rebirth (2025);

(ii) the strong performance of selected highly anticipated and well-promoted films which we believe has demonstrated that audiences are eager to return to cinemas, with per-film attendance approaching levels seen during the pre-pandemic blockbuster era-recent examples include A Minecraft Movie, Sinners and Thunderbolts*; (iii) the fact that major studios and distributors, including streaming platforms like MGM Amazon and Apple TV, are adding a cinema exhibition run to their overall distribution plan as they recognize the economic value of the theatrical release window, not only for driving box office revenues, but also for promoting and distinguishing their films from other content available on their platforms—for example, MGM Amazon’s The Accountant II (2025), had a successful theatrical release; and

 

27


 

(iv) the growing volume of content focused on niche cinema audiences, such as faith-based movies like The King of Kings (2025) and I Can Only Imagine 2 (2026).

Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic through the first quarter of 2025, we have reduced our operating costs by closing or surrendering seven (7) underperforming locations (three in Hawaii, one in California, one in Texas, two in New Zealand). The reduction in our cinema count has impacted our gross revenues but has, we believe, helped our bottom line. None of these past locations are currently operating as a cinema. We have been working to re-negotiate leases at our continuing U.S. cinemas to either reduce occupancy costs or to convert fixed rent to percentage rent, thus better aligning our landlord's interests with our own. Additionally, on April 15, 2025 we closed one more U.S. cinema, our Reading Cinemas Town Square in San Diego, CA, upon the expiration of that lease.

We have also reduced our expenses by selling during the first quarter of last year our administrative office building in Culver City, California and moving to a remote working structure while we investigate our options for replacing office space. We have worked to renegotiate various supplier contracts and have reduced our future insurance costs by approximately $1.3 million on a going forward basis over the remainder of this year. Senior executive salaries have remained flat since 2023 and no cash bonuses have been issued in the last five years except 2022. In 2024 we substituted stock options for cash bonuses related to 2023 performance and did not issue long-term incentive grants. Our Compensation Committee has determined that it will likewise grant stock options in lieu of cash bonuses with respect to 2024 performance.

With respect to our real estate segment, our Australian real estate revenues continue to have steady, strong performance, and especially when measured in local currency. However, the Australian real estate operations for the three-month period ended March 31, 2025 have been adversely impacted by the generally downward trend in exchange rates.

The current macroeconomic conditions such as inflation, interest rates, labor cost increases, and the relatively low exchange value of the Australian and New Zealand dollars have continued to be obstacles that our cinema operations and the entire cinema industry must navigate, and have adversely impacted our global cinema segment:

Cinema attendance levels have not yet returned to pre-pandemic levels;

The number of movies released by the major Hollywood studios and other distributors, while increasing from pandemic levels, have not yet returned to their higher pre-pandemic levels, impacted as well by the 2023 Hollywood Strikes;

The duration of the exclusive theatrical release window is under continuing pressure from cable and streaming;

Inflationary pressures, ongoing supply chain issues and increased operating expenses arising post-pandemic continue to push up our variable costs while we encounter consumer resistance to higher ticket prices;

Labor costs continue to increase due to inflation and labor shortages and government mandates;

Increased fixed costs for third party cinema rents, some of which are increasing due to fixed rent escalations, some of which are fixed and some of which are adjusted by reference to changes in the cost of living index, which are exacerbated by having to also pay our COVID-19 related rent deferrals for the periods of time when our operations were closed or restricted;

Declines in exchange rates for the Australian and New Zealand currencies when compared to the U.S. Dollar; and

General market and economic conditions.

The film exhibition industry for 2025 is expected to see some notable movie titles, which were initially slated for 2024 being postponed to this current year. This will help bring positive momentum with movies such as Thunderbolts*, Elio, Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning, SpongeBob SquarePants, and James Cameron’s eagerly awaited Avatar sequel.

The first quarter of 2025 underperformed with movies such as Disney’s Snow White, Captain America: Brave New World, and Mickey 17 not meeting industry expectations compared to last year’s successful films such as Dune Part 2 and Kung Fu Panda 4. In the first quarter of 2025, we continued to see success from the Oscar winning film Anora, and new specialty films such as I’m Still Here and The Last Showgirl. Additionally, Q4 2024’s movies such as Moana 2, Sonic the Hedgehog 3, Mufasa: The Lion King, and A Complete Unknown continued to be appreciated by audiences during the first quarter of 2025. We believe that the continued success of these Q4 titles highlights strong audience loyalty and engagement, which shows that cinema audiences are still connecting with content and are continuing to have high levels of brand loyalty.

The remaining 2025 film lineup looks powerful and promising with highly anticipated releases, which are expected to drive audiences to our big screens. These films include Lilo & Stitch, Mission Impossible – The Final Reckoning, Ballerina, Superman, Downton Abbey 3, F1, Wicked: For Good and Avatar: Fire and Ash.

We are actively working with our landlords to manage our occupancy costs, which remain high relative to our current revenue levels. Recognizing the oversupply of cinemas in the U.S., we continue to evaluate our U.S. holdings and plan to close underperforming locations where reasonable agreements with landlords cannot be reached. Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic through the first quarter of 2025, we have closed or surrendered leases at three locations in Hawaii, one location in Texas, one location in Northern California, and two locations in New Zealand (all of which experienced negative cash flow at the theater level). We closed a further California cinema in April, 2025. In some cases the applicable cinema lease effectively came to their end by the landlord exercising termination rights (for example, in the case of month-to-month tenancies in order to convert to another use or in the last month of the term). In other cases we have elected not to exercise renewal options. None of these locations have been returned to a cinema use. While in the short term, cinema closures will have an impact on our gross revenue levels year-over-year, we anticipate that they will improve our long-term operating results. We continue to remain confident that such closures are in the best interests of our Company and our stockholders and that in the coming years, our cinema revenue will once again support our real estate development initiatives. Currently, we have one six-screen cinema project in the pipeline in Australia.

Additionally, we expect continued improvements to the operational performance of our cinemas as our global circuit steadily recovers. A key factor in this optimism is the ongoing expansion and enhancement of our Food and Beverage (F&B) offerings. As of Q1 2025, we are currently able to sell beer and wine in 100% of our U.S. cinemas, and liquor in all but three. We are actively pursuing licenses to offer liquor, along with beer and wine, at those remaining three locations. Looking ahead, we are committed to securing liquor licenses and enhancing our F&B offerings across our circuits in Australia and New Zealand as well, reinforcing our dedication to elevating the cinema experience for our customers.

Real Estate Developments

Regarding our United States real estate, during the first quarter of 2024, we sold our underutilized administrative office building in Culver City, California for $10.0 million. We continue to work to lease up the remainder of our 44 Union Square building. The existing tenant, Petco, occupies the cellar, ground and first floors on a full rent paying basis. We believe that demand for space in the Union Square submarket is improving.

On January 31, 2025, we sold all of our Wellington, New Zealand properties for NZ$38.0 million, and entered into an agreement to lease for the cinema premises in Courtenay Central upon completion of seismic upgrades. As of March 31, 2025, all our tenants at our Australian and New Zealand properties were in occupancy on a full rent paying basis.

Given our liquidity requirements, we have largely paused our real estate development projects. Our restricted capital expenditures in 2023 and 2024 have primarily targeted improvements to our existing cinemas. To bolster our liquidity, the Company has listed for sale various assets, being our Newberry Yard property in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, and our Cannon Park property in Townsville, Queensland, Australia.

Company Overview

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

Cinema exhibition, through our 59 cinemas as of March 31, 2025.

Real estate, including real estate development and the rental of retail, commercial, and live theatre assets.

While we have monetized several significant properties, we believe these two business segments continue to complement and support one another. Prior to COVID-19, we used cash flows generated by our cinema operations to fund the front-end cash demands of our real estate development business. As a result of COVID-19, we relied more upon income from our real estate assets, and tapped into the embedded value in those assets, to support our Company through the COVID-19 crisis. As the residual COVID-19 and the 2023 Hollywood Strikes impacts continue to subside, we believe that the quality of film product will continue to improve enticing patrons to return to our cinemas, reaffirming our belief that we will once again be able to rely on the cash flows generated by our cinema portfolio to enhance and add to our real estate portfolio. To meet anticipated liquidity needs, we have classified two assets (Newberry Yard and Cannon Park) as assets held for sale, but even after these dispositions we anticipate that we will continue to own properties in Pennsylvania, Manhattan, and in Australia and New Zealand that we believe will present, when capital resources are available to us, potential to build stockholder value.

Key Performance Indicators (Unaudited; U.S. dollars in thousands, except per patron data)

Food and Beverage Spend Per Patron

A key performance indicator utilized by management in our cinema segment is Food and Beverage (“F&B”) Spend Per Patron (“SPP”), which is calculated based on our total Food & Beverage Revenues on a post-tax basis divided by our attendance during a specific period.

 

29


One of our strategic priorities has been to continue upgrading the food and beverage menu at several of our global cinemas. As of March 31, 2025, we have a total of 38 theater locations with elevated food and beverage menus (i.e. menus that are beyond traditional popcorn, soda, and candy). We use F&B SPP as a measure of our food and beverage operational performance as compared to that of our competitors. Although the profitability of our food and beverage operations is influenced by numerous factors, including labor and cost of goods, F&B SPP serves as an indicator of our ability to achieve consistent strong top-line performance. In addition, F&B SPP highlights our ability to optimize revenue by effectively promoting and selling supplementary products to our customers during each visit. Moreover, this metric assists in evaluating how well we can differentiate our F&B offerings from our competitors. Management in turn uses F&B SPP to adjust food and beverage pricing strategies at our individual theaters, measure the effectiveness of promotional marketing initiatives, optimize menu offerings, and to ensure price barriers are not created for our attendance.

Average Ticket Price per Patron

An additional key performance indicator utilized by management in our cinema segment is Average Ticket Price (“ATP”) Per Patron, which is calculated based on our total Box Office Revenues on a post-tax basis divided by our attendance during a specific period. ATP serves to measure our operational cinema performance when compared to that of our competitors. ATP is a useful metric for evaluating our ability to achieve a strong top line performance, gauging the effectiveness of our cinemas’ pricing strategies and our ability to draw audiences back to our theaters. Management uses ATP to adjust and inform ticket pricing schemes for our individual theaters, measure the effectiveness of our content programming, and ensure that price barriers are not created for core guests.

Real Estate Key Performance Indicators

The key performance indicators used by management in our real estate segment vary according to jurisdiction. At the current time, in the United States, we assess our United States real estate division (excluding our Live Theaters), solely on a net operating income basis. In Australia and New Zealand, we assess our properties held for rent using net operating income, occupancy factor (the percentage of the net rentable area of our properties that are leased) and average lease duration. We believe our chosen indicators help us effectively assess the return on investment on our real estate assets.

In the case of our Live Theatres, with respect to key performance indicators, we primarily look to the live theater rental revenue and ancillary income from the theatres. This key performance indicator represents box office revenues less amounts paid to producers for license fee settlements, plus ancillary income earned by us from certain theater operations. Our live theater rental revenue and ancillary income for the first quarter 2025 was $543.0 thousand compared to $413.0 thousand for the first quarter 2024. 

Historically, in the case of our development properties (such as 44 Union Square in New York City) and our various international properties such as Newmarket Village in Australia, we have no specific key performance standards to compare performance from period to period. Rather we continue to analyze budgets and projections and compare actual results to budgeted or projected results from time to time.

Cinema Exhibition Overview

We operate our worldwide cinema exhibition businesses through various subsidiaries under various brands:

in the U.S., under the Reading Cinemas, Angelika Film Centers, and Consolidated Theatres brands.

in Australia, under the Reading Cinemas, Angelika Cinemas, the State Cinema by Angelika, and for our one unconsolidated joint venture theatre, Event Cinemas brands.

in New Zealand, under the Reading Cinemas and for our two unconsolidated joint venture theatres, Rialto Cinemas brands.

(1)Our Company has a 33.3% unincorporated joint venture interest in a 16-screen cinema located in Mt. Gravatt, Queensland managed by Event Cinemas.

(2)Our Company is a 50% joint venture partner in two New Zealand Rialto Cinemas, with a total of 13 screens. We are responsible for the booking of these cinemas and our joint venture partner, Event Cinemas, manages their day-to-day operations.

(3)Our Wellington leased count includes our Courtenay Central cinema, which, having been sold on January 31, 2025, is now under an Agreement to Lease and we anticipate reopening following the completion of certain third-party construction works.

Our cinema revenues consist primarily of cinema ticket sales, F&B sales, screen advertising, gift card sales, cinema rentals, and online convenience fee revenue generated by the sale of our cinema tickets through our websites and mobile apps. Cinema operating expenses consist of the costs directly attributable to the operation of the cinemas, including (i) film rent expense, (ii) operating costs, such as employment costs and utilities, and (iii) occupancy costs. Cinema revenues and certain expenses fluctuate with the availability of quality first run films and the number of weeks such first run films stay in the market.

For a breakdown of our current cinema assets that we own and/or manage, please refer to Part I, Item 1 – Our Business of our 2024 Form 10-K. We now present a discussion of recent material developments.

Cinema Pipeline

On January 31, 2025, in connection with our sale of our Wellington Properties to Prime Property Group Limited (“Prime”) we entered into an agreement to lease with Prime to fit out and operate under a long-term lease our previously owned 10 screen cinema at the to be redeveloped Courtenay Central in Wellington, New Zealand (the “ATL”). Under the ATL, Prime is obligated to redevelop Courtenay Central and upgrade it to meet current earthquake standards. We intend to renovate the existing cinema to a “best-in-class” standard.

Our Board has also authorized management to proceed with the negotiation of lease for one new state-of-the-art cinema, located in Noosa, Queensland, Australia.

(2)Premium Service: This is our "Business Class Dine-in Service" in our Australian and New Zealand cinemas, which typically includes upgraded F&B menu (some with alcoholic beverages) and may include luxury recliner seating features (less intimate 80-seat cinemas), but no waiter service.

(3)Spotlight Service: Our first dine-in cinema concept in the U.S. at Reading Cinemas in Murrieta, California. Six of our 17 auditoriums at this cinema feature waiter service before the movie begins with a full F&B menu, luxury recliner seating, and laser focus on customer service. Our Spotlight service has been temporarily suspended since the initial COVID-19 shutdown.

(4)Upgraded Food & Beverage Menu: Features an elevated F&B menu including a menu of locally inspired and freshly prepared items that go beyond traditional concessions, which we have worked with former Food Network executives to create. The elevated menu also includes beer, wine and/or spirits at most of our locations.

(5)Liquor Licenses: Licenses are applicable at each cinema location, rather than each cinema auditorium. As of today, we have liquor licenses in 100% of our cinemas operating in the U.S. In Australia, 86% of our cinemas are licensed and we have no liquor licenses pending. In New Zealand, 38% of our cinemas are licensed and we have two liquor licenses pending.

Real Estate Overview

Through our various subsidiaries, we engage in the real estate business through the development, ownership, rental or licensing to third parties of retail, commercial, and live theatre assets. Our real estate business creates long-term value for our stockholders through the continuous improvement and development of our investment and operating properties, including our ETCs. In addition to owning the fee interests in eight of our cinemas (as presented in the table under Cinema Exhibition Overview), as of March 31, 2025, we:

own our 44 Union Square property in Manhattan comprised of retail and office space which is currently in the lease-up phase. The cellar, ground floor, and second floor of the building are now fully leased to Petco, which is in occupancy of its premises on a full rent paying basis.

own and operate three ETCs known as Newmarket Village (in a suburb of Brisbane), The Belmont Common (in a suburb of Perth), and Cannon Park (in Townsville) in Australia (Currently being held for sale);

own and operate our administrative office building in South Melbourne, Australia;

own and operate the fee interests in two developed commercial properties in Manhattan improved with live theatres comprised of a single stage in each location; own a 75% managing member interest in a limited liability company which in turn owns the fee interest in and improvements constituting our Cinemas 1,2,3 located in Manhattan;

 

32


own an approximately 23.9-acre property in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, which is currently being held for sale; and

own approximately 201-acres principally in Pennsylvania from our legacy railroad business, including the Reading Viaduct in downtown Philadelphia;

For a breakdown of our real estate assets, made current by our discussion below, please refer to Part I, Item 1 – Our Business of our 2024 Form 10-K. We now present a discussion of recent material developments.

The combination of the COVID-19 pandemic, the lack of any material U.S. public pandemic financial assistance due to our public company status, the 2023 Hollywood Strike, increased interest rates, inflation, increased labor costs, and decreases in the value of the Australian Dollar and New Zealand Dollar vis-a-vis the U.S. Dollar, have significantly impacted our cinema operations and necessitated capital conservation to sustain our cinema operations and service our debt. This has required us to rethink our real estate business plan and to monetize a number of properties that had pre-COVID been slated for long-term development.

To date, we have monetized the following property assets:

(i)Our non-income producing land holdings in Coachella, California and Manukau, New Zealand;

(ii)Our Redyard ETC in Auburn, Australia;

(iii)Our Royal George live theatre complex in Chicago (slated for redevelopment, and now being redeveloped for residential purposes by the new owner);

(iv)The land underlying our cinema in Invercargill, New Zealand;

(v)Our non-competitive four-screen cinema in Maitland, Australia;

(vi)Our administrative office building in Culver City, California; and

(vii) Most recently, on January 31, 2025, our approximately 3.7 acre five-parcel assemblage in the entertainment center of Wellington, New Zealand, which includes the Courtenay Central building.

These properties were identified for sale and sold in significant part because of (i) our need for liquidity due to the circumstances referred to above, (ii) the amount of capital required to materially increase their value in the immediate to mid-term, (iii) they were either non-income producing or provided immaterial cash flow and (iv) in the case of our Culver City office building, the property was not required for our operations because it exceeded our office size requirements. Our Courtenay Central deal includes a long-term lease back to us of the cinema component of that property, after the completion of seismic upgrades.

As of the date of this Report, we continue to have the following properties classified as held for sale:

(i)Our ETC properties in Townsville (QLD) in Australia known as Cannon Park; and

(ii)Our approximately 23.9-acre Newberry Yard in Williamsport, Pennsylvania (also currently non-income producing).

United States:

44 Union Square Redevelopment (New York, N.Y.) – We continue our efforts to find a tenant for the remaining four floors of the building. On January 27, 2022, we entered a long-term lease with Petco for the lower level, ground floor, and second floor of the building. Petco is now open for business and in occupancy on a full rent paying basis.

Minetta Lane Theatre (New York, N.Y.) – Audible has a license agreement with us through March 15, 2026, with an option to extend it for an additional year. Audible presents plays featuring a limited cast of one or two characters and special live performance engagements on the Audible streaming service. During 2024, Audible presented a number of shows, including Laura Benati: Nobody Cares, Dead Outlaw and Strategic Love Play. In 2025, Hugh Jackman produces and stars in Sexual Misconduct of the Middle Class and Liev Schreiber stars in Creditors.

Orpheum Theatre (New York, N.Y.) – STOMP closed (after 30 years at our theatre) on January 8, 2023. Under our termination agreement with the producers of STOMP, we have certain rights to provide the New York City venue for any future production of that show. Following STOMP’s historic run at the Orpheum, The Empire Strips Back ran for approximately three months, followed by a limited holiday engagement of Death, Let Me Do My Show starring comedian Rachel Bloom. The Off-Broadway solo version of William Shakespeare’s Hamlet starring Eddie Izzard also played in 2024. The year finished with a run of The Big Gay Jamboree, produced by the creator of Barbie and Titanique. The Jonathon Larson Project closed in March 2025 and a new show, Ginger Twinsies, is scheduled to launch during the summer of 2025.

Cinemas 1,2,3 (New York, N.Y.) – Currently operated as the Cinemas 123, we have historically treated this property as an asset held for long term development. However, in light of a variety of factors, such as market conditions in Manhattan for real estate assets, cost of capital and demands on our liquidity, we have begun to explore alternatives for this property.

 

The Philadelphia Viaduct and Adjacent Properties (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) – This continues to be an area of focus in 2025 as we continue our efforts to develop and maximize the potential of our real estate holdings in Philadelphia. Since 2023, we have resumed work on this project, particularly concentrating on the Reading Viaduct—an 0.7-mile-long raised rail bed and bridge system spanning the Callowhill and Poplar neighborhoods, extending to Vine Street in the heart of the city's Central Business District. Comprising approximately 6.5 acres of land, along with various connecting bridges over public streets and sidewalks, the Reading Viaduct represents a significant contiguous land holding unobstructed by public thoroughfares.

 

While there has been interest from the City of Philadelphia and the City Center District in acquiring the Reading Viaduct for park purposes, no concrete steps have been taken to proceed with condemnation or transfer of the property other than a petition brought by the City before the Surface Transportation Board (“STB”) seek a determination that the Reading Viaduct is no longer railroad property subject to the jurisdiction of the STB. Under applicable law, railroad land subject to the jurisdiction of the STB is not subject to condemnation by state or local authorities.

Recent developments in the area, such as the announcement of a $158 million federal grant for the Chinatown Stitch project in mid-March 2024, further highlight the potential of the Reading Viaduct. This project aims to reconnect the Chinatown community and surrounding neighborhoods by capping the Vine Street Expressway I-676, which directly intersects with the Reading Viaduct at Vine Street. We believe that capping the expressway at our property would significantly enhance the attractiveness and viability of the Reading Viaduct for future development.

Australia:

Newmarket Village ETC (Brisbane, Australia) – We will continue to operate our Newmarket Village ETC, which includes Reading Cinemas as an anchor tenant Our site includes a 23,218 square foot parcel adjacent to the center, improved with an office building. Over the next few years, we will be evaluating different development options for this space. As of the date of this report, the combined center and office building is 96% leased.

Cannon Park Center ETC, (Queensland, Australia) – We acquired two adjoining properties in Townsville, Queensland, Australia comprising of approximately 9.4-acres in 2015. The total gross leasable area of the Cannon Park City Center and the Cannon Park Discount Center is 126,368 square feet. Our multiplex cinema is the anchor tenant at the Cannon Park City Center. This site is currently 94% leased. As discussed in greater detail above, our Cannon Park property is currently under an unconditional contract of sales for AU$32.0 million, which we expect to close sometime in May 2025.

The Belmont Common, (Belmont, Perth, Australia) – The total gross leasable area of the Belmont Common is 60,117 square feet of net rentable land. Our multiplex cinema is the anchor tenant with six third-party tenants. The site is currently 100% leased.

New Zealand:

On January 31, 2025, we sold all of our properties in Wellington, New Zealand (including the Courtenay Central building) to Prime Property Group (“Prime”) for a purchase price of NZ$38.0 million. We understand that Prime intends to redevelop the properties, including a seismic upgrade of the existing Courtenay Central building. As a part of that sale transaction we have entered into an Agreement to Lease for the cinema component of that upgraded Courtenay Central building.

Consolidated and Non-Segment Results:

First Quarter Net Results

Revenue

Revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, decreased by $4.9 million, to $40.2 million, compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to (i) lower attendance in all three countries as a result of underperforming movies from Hollywood studios in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the same period in 2024, in addition to the closure of certain cinemas in the U.S. and NZ, (ii) slight decreases in property rent revenue in all three countries, and (iii) the weakening of the AU/NZ foreign exchange rates against US dollar, offset by an increase in Live Theatres’ revenue.

Segment Operating Income/(Loss)

Our total segment operating loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, decreased by $0.4 million, from a loss of $3.3 million to a loss of $2.9 million, primarily due to savings in operating expenses in our cinema and real estate segments and a reduction in depreciation and amortization, partially offset by weakened cinema performance.

During the first quarter of 2025, both the Australia and New Zealand dollars devalued against the U.S. dollar. The average Australia dollar exchange rate against the U.S. dollar for the first quarter of 2025 decreased 4.5% compared to the same period in 2024. The average New Zealand dollar exchange rate against the U.S. dollar for the first quarter of 2025 decreased 7.3% compared to the same period in 2024. The devaluation of the Australia and New Zealand currencies negatively impacts segment operating income and positively impacts segment operating loss in U.S. dollar terms for the period.

 

35


Net Income/(Loss)

Our net loss attributable to Reading International, Inc. for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, decreased by $8.5 million, from a loss of $13.2 million to a loss of $4.8 million, when compared to the same period in the prior year, primarily due to gain on sale of assets, reduced depreciation and amortization expense, and reduced interest expense, partially offset by weakened cinema performance.

Income Tax Expense

Income tax benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2025, increased by $0.2 million compared to the equivalent prior-year period. The change between 2025 and 2024 is primarily related to a decrease in reserve for valuation allowance in 2025.

First Quarter Results

For the quarter ended March 31, 2025, cinema revenue decreased by $4.9 million, to $36.4 million compared to the same period in the prior year. This decrease was primarily due to a global decline in attendance from a weaker slate of overall films, plus closure of U.S. and NZ theaters.

Cinema Segment Operating Income/(Loss)

Cinema segment operating loss for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, increased by $0.3 million, from a loss of $4.2 million to a loss of $4.5 million when compared to the same period in the prior year. The increase in operating loss is due to a decrease in cinema revenue in all three countries because of lower attendance, offset by a decrease in operating expenses, and lower depreciation, amortization and G&A expenses.

Operating Expense

Operating expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, decreased by $4.2 million, to $37.7 million, compared to the same quarter in the prior year. This decrease was due to lower operating expenses across the three countries.

Depreciation, amortization, impairment, general and administrative expense

Depreciation, amortization, impairment, and general and administrative expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, showed a decrease of $0.3 million, to $3.2 million, compared to the same quarter in the prior year.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our Financing Strategy

Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, we used cash generated from operations and other excess cash to the extent not needed to fund capital investments contemplated by our business plan, to pay down our loans and credit facilities. This provided us with availability under our loan facilities for future use and thereby, reduced interest charges. On a periodic basis, we reviewed the maturities of our borrowing arrangements and negotiated renewals and extensions where necessary.

However, disruptions to our cinema cash flow caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2023 Hollywood Strikes, and continuing macroeconomic headwinds, have made it necessary for us to defer capital expenditures and to rely on borrowings and the proceeds of asset monetizations to cover our costs of operations, pay interest and pay down debt.

Our bank loans with NAB require that our Company comply with certain covenants. Furthermore, our Company’s use of loan funds from NAB is limited due to limitations on the expatriation of funds from Australia to the United States. We believe that our lenders understand that the current situation, relating to the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2023 Hollywood Strikes, is not of our making, that we are doing everything that can reasonably be done, and that, generally speaking, our relationship with our lenders is good.

While our Company believes that there will be recovery in the global cinema business, we still face macroeconomic headwinds such as increased interest rates, inflation, supply chain issues and increased film rent, labor and operating costs, many of which are beyond our control. We have taken a variety of steps across our various operating jurisdictions to reduce our spending, including, without limitation, deferring non-essential capital expenditures, deferring certain operational expenses, renegotiating occupancy arrangements, closing certain unprofitable cinemas, deferring compensation expenses, and eliminating certain T&E expenses. We are closely monitoring our debt maturity dates to arrange necessary amendments. In February 2025, we exercised our option to extend our Valley National debt’s maturity date to October 1, 2025. In April 2025, we executed an amendment to our Bank of America loan to defer the monthly principal payments of $500,000 in April, May, and June 2025 to a later date in May 2025. As of March 31, 2025, we have debt of $53.7 million coming due in the next 12 months. While the Central Banks of the three countries in which we do business have reduced interest rates from recent highs, rates remain elevated when compared to pre-Covid periods.

As discussed elsewhere in this Report, we believe that cinema cash flow for 2025 will be strong, even though cinema results for the first quarter of 2025 were behind those of the same period for last year. However, if our Company is unable to generate sufficient cash flow in the upcoming months, we will be required to adopt one or more alternatives, such as reducing, delaying or eliminating planned capital expenditure, monetizing additional assets, restructuring our debt and/or our lease obligations or finding additional sources of liquidity. In January 2025, we sold our Wellington property assets in New Zealand for NZ$38.0 million. Following the sale, we repaid the NZ$18.8 million loan to Westpac in January 2025, and paid down $6.1 million to Bank of America in February 2025. In early 2024, understanding our reduced need for administrative space during the shift to remote-working, we decreased our overall general and administrative expense by selling our administrative building in Culver City, California, freeing up cash of approximately $1.3 million (after paying off our mortgage, brokerage commissions and transactional fees). We are currently reviewing our need for replacement office space and believe that the disposition of this asset will save us approximately $2.0 million in operating and holding costs for 2025. We listed as an asset held for sale our Newberry Yard property in Williamsport, Pennsylvania. This property was historically used as a rail yard, and, accordingly, improved with tracks and switches and has direct access to the area’s rail system.  We carry the property on our books at a book value (the lower of cost or market, as opposed to fair market value) of $0.5 million. This asset was selected since it is currently non-income producing and as significant capital would be required to materially increase the value of this asset. Certain issues as to the location of various railroad rights of way have now been resolved on what we believe to be favorable terms and terms which enhance the value of the property.

In order to further bolster our liquidity and capital resources, in the second quarter 2024, we classified our Cannon Park property in Townsville, Australia as an asset held for sale. Our Cannon Park property is currently under an unconditional contract of sales for AU$32.0 million, which we expect to close sometime in May 2025. Those assets have a book value of $17.5 million.

If we cannot obtain sufficient net proceeds from the disposition of these assets (or determine to defer disposition due to unfavorable market conditions), in addition to other strategies, we may look to monetize other real estate assets.

Operating activities

Cash used in operating activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025, increased by $4.9 million, to $7.7 million compared to cash used in the same period of the prior year of $2.8 million. This was primarily driven by a $4.9 million decrease in net payables.

Investing activities

Cash provided in investing activities during the three months ended March 31, 2025 was $17.9 million compared to cash provided in the same prior year period of $7.6 million. This was due to higher proceeds from sale of our Wellington property assets in January 2025, compared to the proceeds from the sale of our Culver City office in February 2024.

Financing activities

Cash used in financing activities for the three months ended March 31, 2025, increased by $5.6 million, to $16.9 million compared to cash used in the same period of prior year due to higher loan paydowns compared to the same period of 2024.

(1)Our working capital is reported as a deficit, as we receive revenue from our cinema business ahead of the time that we have to pay our associated liabilities. We use the money we receive to pay down our borrowings in the first instance.

As of March 31, 2025, we had $5.9 million in unrestricted cash and cash equivalents compared to $12.3 million on December 31, 2024. On March 31, 2025, our total outstanding borrowings were $186.6 million compared to $202.7 million on December 31, 2024.

We manage our cash, investments, and capital structure to meet the short-term and long-term obligations of our business, while maintaining financial flexibility and liquidity. We forecast, analyze, and monitor our cash flows to enable investment and financing within the overall constraints of our financial strategy. In the past, we used cash generated from operations and other excess cash to the extent not needed for any capital expenditures, to pay down our loans and credit facilities providing us some flexibility on our available loan facilities for future use and thereby, reducing interest charges.

Litigation

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

Please refer to Part I, Item 3 – Legal Proceedings in our 2024 Form 10-K for more information. There have been no material changes to our litigation since our 2024 Form 10-K, except as set forth in Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements-- Note 16 – Commitments and Contingencies included herein in Part I – Financial Information, Item 1 – Financial Statements on this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. This note sets out our litigation accounting policies.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

There are no off-balance sheet arrangements or obligations (including contingent obligations) that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in the financial condition, revenue or expense, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

We believe that the application of the following accounting policies requires significant judgments and estimates in the preparation of our Consolidated Financial Statements and hence, are critical to our business operations and the understanding of our financial results:

(i) Impairment of Long-lived Assets (other than Goodwill and Intangible Assets with indefinite lives) – we evaluate our long-lived assets and finite-lived intangible assets using historical and projected data of cash flows as our primary indicator of potential impairment and we take into consideration the seasonality of our business. If the sum of the estimated, undiscounted future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the asset, then an impairment is recognized for the amount by which the carrying value of the asset exceeds its estimated fair value based on an appraisal or a discounted cash flow calculation. For certain non-income producing properties or for those assets with no consistent historical or projected cash flows, we obtain appraisals or other evidence to evaluate whether there are impairment indicators for these assets.

No impairment losses were recorded for long-lived and finite-lived intangible assets for the quarter ended March 31, 2025.

(ii) Impairment of Goodwill and Intangible Assets with indefinite lives – goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized, but instead, tested for impairment at least annually on a reporting unit basis. The impairment evaluation is based on the present value of estimated future cash flows of each reporting unit plus the expected terminal value. There are significant assumptions and estimates used in determining the future cash flows and terminal value. The most significant assumptions include our cost of debt and cost of equity assumptions that comprise the weighted average cost of capital for each reporting unit. Accordingly, actual results could vary materially from such estimates.

No impairment losses were recorded for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets for the quarter ended March 31, 2025.

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Our statements in this quarterly report, including the documents incorporated herein by reference, contain a variety of forward-looking statements as defined by the Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can be identified by words such as: "may," "will," "expect," "believe," "intend," "future," and "anticipate" and similar references to future periods. Examples of forward-looking statements include, among others, our expectations regarding the closing of the sale of our Cannon Park ETC in Townsville, Queensland, Australia; our beliefs regarding the impact of the 2023 Hollywood Strikes on the cinema business; our expected operating results, including our ultimate return to pre-pandemic type results; our expectations regarding the recovery and future of the cinema exhibition industry, including the strength of movies anticipated for release in the future; our expectations regarding people returning to our theatres and continuing to use discretionary funds on entertainment outside of the home; our beliefs regarding the impact of our cinema-anchored real estate developments; our beliefs regarding the success of our diversified business strategy; our belief regarding the attractiveness of 44 Union Square to potential tenants and ability to lease space on acceptable terms; our expectations regarding the effects of our enhanced F&B offerings on our operating results; our expectations regarding our ability to monetize our assets on terms acceptable to us; our expectations regarding credit facility covenant compliance and our ability to continue to obtain necessary covenant waivers and loan extensions on terms acceptable to us; and our expectations of our liquidity and capital requirements and the allocation of funds.

Forward-looking statements are neither historical facts nor assurances of future performance. Instead, they are based only on our current beliefs, expectations and assumptions regarding the future of our business, future plans and strategies, projections, anticipated events and trends, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict and many of which are outside of our control. Our actual results and financial condition may differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements. Therefore, you should not rely on any of these forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results and financial condition to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among others, the following:

with respect to our cinema and live theatre operations:

reduced consumer demand due to inflationary pressures;

the adverse continuing effects of external events of past pandemic and strikes on our Company’s results from operations, liquidity, cash flows, financial condition, and access to credit markets;

Refer to Item 1A - Risk Factors, as well as the risk factors set forth in any other filings made under the Securities Act of 1934, as amended, including any of our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, for more information.

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

Forward-looking statements made by us in this quarter report are based only on information currently available to us and are current only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2024. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or to revise any of our forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable law. Accordingly, you should always note the date to which our forward-looking statements speak.

Item 3 – Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

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

It is based on a single point in time; and

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

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

Currency Risk

While we report our earnings and net assets in U.S. dollars, substantial portions of our revenue and of our obligations are denominated in either Australian or New Zealand dollars. The value of these currencies can vary significantly compared to the U.S. dollar and compared to each other. We do not hedge the currency risk, but rather have relied upon the natural hedges that exist as a result of the fact that our film costs are typically fixed as a percentage of the box office, and our local operating costs and obligations are likewise typically denominated in local currencies. However, we do have intercompany debt and our ability to service this debt could be adversely impacted by declines in the relative value of the Australian and New Zealand dollars compared to the U.S. dollar. Also, our use of local borrowings to mitigate the business risk of currency fluctuations has reduced our flexibility to move cash between jurisdictions. Set forth below is a chart of the exchange ratios between these two currencies in relation to US dollars since 1996:

A graph showing the exchange rate

AI-generated content may be incorrect.

In recent periods, we have paid material intercompany dividends and have repaid intercompany debt, using these proceeds to fund capital investment in the United States. Accordingly, our debt levels in Australia are higher than they would have been if funds had not been returned for such purposes. On a company wide basis, this means that a reduction in the relative strength of the U.S. dollar versus the Australian dollar and/or the New Zealand dollar would effectively raise the overall cost of our borrowing and capital and make it more expensive to return funds from the United States to Australia and New Zealand.

Our Company transacts business in Australia and New Zealand and is subject to risks associated with fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates. During the first quarter of 2025, the average Australian dollar and New Zealand dollar weakened against the U.S. dollar by 4.5% and 7.3%, respectively, compared to the same prior year period.

 

46


At March 31, 2025, approximately 36.9% and 5.6% of our assets were invested in assets denominated in Australian dollars (Reading Entertainment Australia) and New Zealand dollars (Reading New Zealand), respectively, including approximately $3.5 million in cash and cash equivalents. At December 31, 2024, approximately 35.6% and 8.3% of our assets were invested in assets denominated in Australian dollars (Reading Entertainment Australia) and New Zealand dollars (Reading New Zealand), respectively, including approximately $7.3 million in cash and cash equivalents.

Our policy in Australia and New Zealand is to match revenues and expenses, whenever possible, in local currencies. As a result, we have procured a majority of our expenses in Australia and New Zealand in local currencies. Despite this natural hedge, recent movements in foreign currencies and the current holding of U.S. dollars by certain Australian and New Zealand subsidiaries have had an effect on our current earnings. The effect of the translation adjustment on our assets and liabilities noted in our other comprehensive income was a decrease of $0.4 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2025, respectively. As we continue to progress our acquisition and development activities in Australia and New Zealand, no assurances can be given that the foreign currency effect on our earnings will not be material in the future.

Historically, our policy has been to borrow in local currencies to finance the development and construction of our long-term assets in Australia and New Zealand. As a result, the borrowings in local currencies have provided somewhat of a natural hedge against the foreign currency exchange exposure. We have also historically paid management fees to the U.S. to cover a portion of our domestic overhead. The fluctuations of the Australian and New Zealand currencies, however, may impact our ability to rely on such funding for ongoing support of our domestic overhead.

We record unrealized foreign currency translation gains or losses that could materially affect our financial position. As of March 31, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the balance of cumulative foreign currency translation adjustments were approximately a ($5.1) million loss and ($5.5) million loss, respectively.

Interest Rate Risk

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

Historically, we maintain most of our cash and cash equivalent balances in short-term money market instruments with original maturities of three months or less. Due to the short-term nature of such investments, a change of 1% in short-term interest rates would not have a material effect on our financial condition. The negative spread between our borrowing costs and earned interest will exacerbate as we hold cash to provide a safety net to meet our expenses.

We have a combination of fixed and variable interest rate loans. In connection with our variable interest rate loans, a change of approximately 1% in short-term interest rates would have resulted in an approximate $448,000 increase or decrease in our quarterly interest expense.

For further discussion on market risks, please refer to Part I, Item 1A – Risk Factors included on our 2024 Form 10-K.

Item 4 – Controls and Procedures

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

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such, term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act. Based upon our evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2025, because of the material weakness in internal controls over financial reporting relating to the erroneous reversal and treatment of a liability. This material weakness existed for the periods June 30, 2024, September 30, 2024, December 31, 2024, and March 31, 2025, and resulted in the Company restating its consolidated financial statements for the June 30, 2024, and September 30, 2024 periods. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the Company’s annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

As a result of the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described above, management has concluded that we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2025. For a discussion regarding management’s remediation plan of the material weakness, please refer to Item 9A of the Company’s 2024 Form 10-K.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) that occurred during the first quarter ended March 31, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

MORTGAGE PROMISSORY NOTE

September 29, 2023

New York, New York



FOR VALUE RECEIVED, SUTTON HILL PROPERTIES, LLC, a Nevada limited liability company qualified to do business in New York, having its principal place of business at 5995 Sepulveda Boulevard, Suite 300, Culver City, California 90230 (the "Borrower") hereby promises to pay to the order of VALLEY NATIONAL BANK, a national banking association at its offices at 1455 Valley Road, Wayne, New Jersey 07470, and its successors and assigns ("Mortgagee"), the original principal sum of Twenty-One Million Sixty Thousand Nine Hundred Twelve and 57/100 Dollars ($21,060,912.57) together with interest according to the following terms and conditions:



1.Payments.

This Amended and Restated Mortgage Promissory Note ("Note" and "Restated Note" as referred to in the Extension and Modification Agreement of even date herewith between Borrower and Mortgagee) shall be repaid as follows:

(A)   Interest hereon for the period from the date hereof through the end of the current calendar month shall be due and payable simultaneously with the execution of this Note.

(8)   Eleven (11) equal consecutive monthly installments of principal and interest, in an amount as calculated pursuant to Interest Rate and Interest Calculations (as defined below) commencing on November 1, 2023 (the "First Payment Date", and each payment being a "Payment Date"), and continuing on the first day of each month thereafter until and including September 1, 2024.

(C) One (1) payment in the amount of One Million Sixty Thousand Nine Hundred Twelve and 57/100 Dollars ($1,060,912.57) (the "Required Paydown Amount") due and payable in full on March 1, 2024. Borrower shall deliver to Mortgagee, together with the Required Paydown Amount, a certificate in form reasonably acceptable to Mortgagee executed by Borrower's manager or an authorized officer of Borrower certifying that each of the representations and warranties of the Borrower contained in the Loan Documents is true, complete and correct in all material respects as of the date of such manager or officer certificate except to the extent such representations and warranties are matters which by their nature can no longer be true and correct as a result of the passage of time.

 


 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Borrower has entered into a purchase and sale agreement for the sale of the entire Mortgaged Property with a bona-fide third party purchaser with a non-refundable (i.e., all contingency periods, if any, under such agreement have expired and such purchaser shall have no termination rights thereunder except for cause (e.g., a termination right which may be triggered by casualty, condemnation, title defect or other event as would customarily lead to such right of purchaser)) earnest money deposit in an amount equal to not less than five percent (5%) of the purchase price, which purchase price shall be in an amount equal to or greater than such amount as shall be required to indefeasibly repay in full the entire indebtedness evidenced by this Note plus all closing costs payable by Borrower as seller in connection with such sale of the Mortgaged Property (the "PSA") and has provided a copy of such fully-executed PSA to Mortgagee, then the date upon which such Required Paydown Amount shall be due and payable shall be extended until the earlier to occur of (i) the date on which the closing of title shall occur pursuant to the PSA, (ii) five (5) days after the date of any termination or cancellation of the PSA, or (iii) the Maturity Date.

(D)   A final installment of principal in such amount as shall constitute the entire outstanding principal balance of this Note, plus all accrued and unpaid interest as calculated pursuant to Interest Rate and Interest Calculations (as defined below), and all other sums due under this Note and/or the Mortgage (as defined below) due and payable in full on October 1, 2024 (the "Maturity Date").

The monthly installments of principal and interest described above shall be based on a two hundred sixty (260) month amortization schedule.



2.Interest Rate.



The annual rate of interest payable under this Note ("Interest Rate") for the period commencing on and including the date hereof through and including the Maturity Date (the "Loan Term"), shall be calculated at a floating rate equal at all times to three hundred fifty (350) basis points (3.50%) above the SOFR Loan Rate (as defined below), as such rate may change from time to time, adjusted daily, provided that at no time during the Loan Term shall the rate of Interest be less than seven and one half of one percent (7.50%) per annum, and provided further, that the rate of Interest may be increased to the Default Interest Rate (as defined below) in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents.



"SOFR" shall mean, with respect to any U.S. Government Securities Business Day, a rate per annum equal to the secured overnight financing rate for such U.S. Government Securities Business Day.



"SOFR Loan Rate" shall mean, for any applicable Interest Period (as defined below), the rate per annum equal to Term SOFR (as defined below) published for the Rate Determination Date and having a term equivalent to such Interest Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, as of 5:00 p.m. (ET) on any applicable Rate Determination Date, Term SOFR has not been published, then the rate used will be such Term SOFR as published for the first preceding U.S. Government Securities Business Day so long as such first preceding U.S. Government Securities Business Day is not more than two (2) U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to such Rate Determination Date.

 


 

"Interest Period" shall mean each period beginning on, and including, a Payment Date and ending on, and including, the day preceding the next Payment Date.



"Rate Determination Date" shall mean, for any applicable Interest Period, the date that is two (2) U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to the commencement of such Interest Period.



"Term SOFR" shall mean, for any Interest Period, the 1-month CME SOFR Term Reference Rate administered by Chicago Mercantile Exchange ("CME") (or any successor forward-looking term rate derived from SOFR published by any successor administrator thereof, as may be recommended by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York) and published on the applicable commercially available screen page as may be reasonably designated by the Mortgagee from time to time. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in the event that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, Term SOFR (i) is permanently or indefinitely unavailable or unascertainable, (ii) ceases to be published, (iii) is officially discontinued by the administrator of Term SOFR and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary, (iv) the government authority having jurisdiction over the Mortgagee set forth a specific date that Term SOFR shall no longer be available for determining interest rates, (v) can no longer be lawfully relied upon in contracts, (vi) does not accurately and fairly reflect the cost of making or maintain the type of advance under this Note, or (vii) the Mortgagee in its sole reasonable judgment believes that Term SOFR is no longer a widely recognized benchmark for the origination of loans and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary, then all references to Term SOFR herein will instead mean the Alternate Rate (as defined below). The Mortgagee will provide prompt written notice to the Borrower of such Alternate Rate, which will be effective on the date of the earliest event set forth in clauses (i)-(vii) of this paragraph. If there is any ambiguity as to the date of occurrence of any such event, Mortgagee's judgment will be dispositive.

"Alternate Rate" shall mean a replacement rate for Term SOFR determined by the Mortgagee in its sole judgment. If at any time such Alternate Rate is less than zero percent (0%), then the replacement rate shall be deemed zero percent (0%) for purposes of calculating the Interest Rate.

3.Interest Calculations. Interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal amount of this Note from the date hereof until all sums under this Note are paid in full. Interest during the term hereof shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and actual number of days elapsed.

4.Application of Payments. Payments received under this Note (including prepayments) shall be applied first to accrued interest and then to installments of principal, in inverse order of their maturity dates. Notwithstanding the previous sentence, Mortgagee shall have the right, at its sole option, to apply any payment received under this Note first to any late fees, collection or other expenses to which Mortgagee may be entitled under this Note, the Mortgage (as defined below) or any other Loan Document. The making of any partial prepayment shall not change the due dates or amounts of monthly installment payments next becoming due, but shall only change the allocations of future payments of interest and principal based on such prepayment and produce possibly an earlier payoff date on this Note.

 


 

5.Late Fee.    If any payment (including tax or insurance escrow payments) is not received by Mortgagee within fifteen (15) days following its due date, without limiting any right or remedy under this Note, the Mortgage or any other Loan Document, Mortgagee may charge a late fee equal to Five Percent (5%) of the total amount overdue.



6.Prepayments. Prepayment of the Loan is permitted at any time upon not less than thirty (30) days prior written notice to Mortgagee. Such prepayment must be accompanied by payment of all accrued interest on the amount being prepaid and any and all applicable charges due under the Loan Documents. All prepayments shall be applied first to any outstanding charges or fees relating to the Loan, then to interest and then to principal.



Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Note, the Mortgagee shall not be required to accept partial prepayments of the Loan.

No prepayment premium shall be due in connection with any prepayments of the Loan.

7.Place and Manner of Payment. Payments under this Note are to be made in United States currency at the offices of Mortgagee listed in this Note or at such other location designated by Mortgagee. Without limiting in any way Mortgagee's right of setoff against Borrower, Mortgagee is authorized and directed to apply funds in any account in the name of Borrower with Mortgagee to make any payments under this Note without any additional authorization, from, and without prior notice to, the undersigned. Any delay by Mortgagee in submitting a statement of any amount due under this Note shall not relieve Borrower of its duty to inquire as to the amount due and to make timely payments.

8.Collateral. This is the Note referred to in, and secured by the Mortgage ("Mortgage") of this date from the undersigned in favor of Mortgagee, the terms and conditions of which are hereby incorporated into this Note. Capitalized terms in this Note that are defined in the Mortgage, and not otherwise defined in this Note, shall have the meaning set forth in the Mortgage.

9.Defaults and Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, all sums outstanding under this Note may, at Mortgagee's sole option, become, or may be declared to be, immediately due and payable in full, and the Mortgagee may exercise any of its other rights and remedies as set forth in the Mortgage and/or all other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the right to increase the interest rate on such sums to the Default Interest Rate. Mortgagee's delay or failure to accelerate this Note or to exercise any other available right or remedy shall not impair any such right or remedy, nor shall it be construed to be a forbearance or waiver. The term "Default Interest Rate" means a rate of Five Percent (5%) in excess of the interest rate provided for in this Note.

 


 

Unless otherwise agreed to by Mortgagee, the Default Interest Rate shall (a) be applied retroactively to the date of the first occurrence of the Event of Default, (b) be computed on a three hundred sixty (360) day year based on a 30/360 day basis, and (c) survive entry of any judgment relating to the Loan.



10.New York Law. This Note has been executed and delivered at and shall be deemed to have been made in the State of New York and shall in all respects be governed by and construed, applied and enforced in accordance with the internal laws, including the conflict of law rules, of the State of New York, except to the extent that procedural matters must be governed by the law of the jurisdiction wherein the Mortgaged Property is located. Whenever possible, each provision of this Note shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law; but if any provision of this Note shall be prohibited by or be invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Note.

11.Partial Invalidity. If any term or provision of this Note is at any time held to be invalid by any court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining terms and provisions of this Note shall not be affected and shall remain in full force and effect.



12.Waivers. Without limiting any other provisions of the Mortgage or the Loan Documents, Borrower, for itself and all endorsers, guarantors and sureties of this Note, and their heirs, legal representatives, successors and assigns, hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, valuation, appraisement, presentment for payment, demand, notice of nonpayment, notice of dishonor, protest, notice of protest, lack of diligence, delays in collection or enforcement of this Note, notice of the intention to accelerate, the benefit of all applicable law affording any right or redemption or cure and all other notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default or enforcement of the payment of this Note, except as expressly provided herein or in the Mortgage, and in connection with any suit, action or proceeding brought by Mortgagee on this Note, any and every right it may have to (a) a trial by jury, (b) interpose any counterclaim therein (other than a counterclaim which can only be asserted in a suit, action or proceeding brought by Mortgagee on this Note and cannot be maintained in a separate action), and (c) have the same consolidated with any other or separate suit, action or proceeding, and agrees that their respective liability shall be unconditional and without regard to the liability of any other party and shall not be in any manner affected by any indulgence, extension of time, renewal, waiver or modification granted or consented to by Mortgagee. BORROWER HEREBY REPRESENTS THAT BORROWER'S COUNSEL HAS BEEN CONSULTED SPECIFICALLY AS TO THIS

WAIVER. By accepting this Note, Mortgagee also waives its right to request a trial by

jury.

13.Consent to Jurisdiction. FOR ANY CLAIM, ACTION, OR DISPUTE ARISING UNDER, OR TO INTERPRET OR APPLY, THIS NOTE OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT, OR TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE ARISING UNDER THE FOREGOING OR THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE PARTIES, BORROWER AND MORTGAGEE IRREVOCABLY SUBMITS TO THE NONEXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN IN NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK, AND APPELLATE COURTS FROM ANY OF SUCH COURTS. BORROWER AND MORTGAGEE IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY HAVE AT ANY TIME TO VENUE OF ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION, OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN ANY SUCH COURT, INCLUDING ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION, OR PROCEEDING SO BROUGHT HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT FORUM. NOTHING IN THE MORTGAGE OR OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS SHALL BE DEEMED TO PRECLUDE MORTGAGEE FROM BRINGING ANY SUIT, ACTION, OR PROCEEDING    RELATING    TO ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE INDEBTEDNESS EVIDENCED HEREBY IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION WHERE MORTGAGEE COULD OTHERWISE PROPERLY BRING SUCH SUIT, ACTION, OR PROCEEDING. BORROWER FURTHER CONSENTS AND AGREES TO SERVICE OF ANY SUMMONS, COMPLAINT OR OTHER LEGAL PROCESS IN ANY SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED U.S. MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, TO BORROWER AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH ON PAGE 1 HEREOF, AND CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT SUCH SERVICE SHALL CONSTITUTE IN EVERY RESPECT VALID AND EFFECTIVE SERVICE (BUT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE VALIDITY OR EFFECTIVENESS OF PROCESS SERVED IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW). SUBJECT TO THE REQUIREMENTS FOR A CASE TO BE HEARD IN THE COMMERCIAL DIVISION OF THE NEW YORK STATE SUPREME COURT, THE PARTIES AGREE TO SUBMIT TO THE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE COMMERCIAL DIVISION OF THE NEW YORK STATE SUPREME COURT, AND TO THE APPLICATION OF SAID COURT'S ACCELERATED PROCEDURES PURSUANT TO RULE 9 OF SECTION 202.?0(G) OF THE UNIFORM RULES FOR NEW YORK STATE TRIAL COURTS.

 


 

14.Interest Limits. If any provision of this Note relating to the rate of interest violates any applicable law in effect at the time payment is due, the interest rate then in effect shall be automatically reduced to the maximum rate then permitted by law. If for any reason Mortgagee should receive as interest an amount that would exceed the highest applicable lawful rate of interest, the amount that would exceed that highest lawful rate shall be deemed to be credited against principal and not to the payment of interest.



15.Successors and Assigns. This Note shall be binding on Borrower and its successors and assigns, and shall inure to the benefit of Mortgagee and its successors and assigns. The term "Mortgagee" in this Note shall refer to Valley National Bank or to any other future holder of this Note.



16.Cross Default. The occurrence of an Event of Default shall constitute a default under any other Obligations of Borrower and a default under any other Obligations of Borrower shall constitute an Event of Default under this Note, the Mortgage and all other Loan Documents.

17.Intentionally Omitted.



18.End of Term. If the Borrower fails to pay the Loan in full at the end of the term of this Note, and Borrower thereafter requests the Mortgagee to renew the Loan, then if the Mortgagee agrees to renew the Loan in its sole absolute discretion and same does not occur within thirty (30) days following the date on which the Loan came due, the Borrower shall be required to pay a late fee equal to one (1%) percent of the then outstanding principal balance of the Loan.



19.Time of the Essence. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE with regard to Borrower's performance of all the terms, covenants and conditions of this Note.

 


 

20.Notices. All notices to be given under this Note shall be given in the same manner as provided in the Mortgage.



21.Amendment. This Note, and any provisions hereof, may not be modified, amended, waived, extended, changed, discharged or terminated orally or by any act or failure to act on the part of Borrower or Mortgagee, but only by an agreement in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of any modification, amendment, waiver, extension, change, discharge or termination is sought.



22.Amended and Restated Note. This Note amends and restates in their entirety the terms and provisions of those certain promissory notes secured by those certain mortgages as more fully described on Exhibit A attached hereto (said promissory notes being hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Existing Notes") so that this Note shall hereafter constitute evidence of but one debt in the aggregate principal amount of$21,060,912.57. The conditions contained in this Note shall supersede and control the terms, covenants, agreements, rights, obligations and conditions of the Existing Notes (it being agreed that the modification of the Existing Notes shall not impair the debt evidenced by each of the Existing Notes).
