First Quarter Segment Results
Network Business
- Network business revenues were
$45.8 million in the quarter, compared with$44.9 million in the prior-year period. Gross margin for the network business was 68.9% in the most recent quarter, compared to 70.2% in the prior-year period. - IMAX DMR revenues were
$28.0 million in the first quarter of 2019, compared to$27.1 million in the first quarter of 2018. Gross margin for the IMAX DMR segment was 70.8%, compared to 69.4% in the prior-year comparative period. - Revenues from joint revenue-sharing arrangements were consistent at
$17.9 million in the quarter and the prior-year period. Gross margin for joint revenue-sharing arrangements was 66.1%, compared to 71.3% in the prior-year comparative period.
Theater Business
- Theater business segment revenues were
$30.3 million in the quarter, compared with$35.0 million in the prior-year period, primarily reflecting the installation of seven fewer sales-type theaters, partially offset by four additional hybrid joint revenue sharing lease arrangements and one additional system upgrade. Average revenue per sales and sales-type lease systems for new systems was$1.4 million , consistent with last year. - Gross margin on sales and sales-type leases was 42.1% which is below historical levels due to the mix of systems as well as the Company's decision to allocate additional engineering support resources to ensure the successful roll out and launch of the
IMAX with Laser systems. The Company anticipates margins on sales type theaters to increase sequentially as the year progresses, resulting in a full-year rate of roughly 50%.

OTHER INFORMATION |
|||||||
(in thousands of U.S. dollars) |
|||||||
Non-GAAP Financial Measures: |
|||||||
In this release, the Company presents adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share, adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders and adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders per diluted share, EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA per Credit Facility as supplemental measures of performance of the Company, which are not recognized under U.S. GAAP. The Company presents adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share because it believes that they are important supplemental measures of its comparable controllable operating performance and it wants to ensure that its investors fully understand the impact of its stock-based compensation (net of any related tax impact) and non-recurring charges on net income. In addition, the Company presents adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders and adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders per diluted share because it believes that they are important supplemental measures of its comparable financial results and could potentially distort the analysis of trends in business performance and it wants to ensure that its investors fully understand the impact of net income attributable to non-controlling interests and its stock-based compensation (net of any related tax impact) and non-recurring charges in determining net income attributable to common shareholders. Management uses these measures to review operating performance on a comparable basis from period to period. However, these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts reported by other companies. Adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share, adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders and adjusted net income attributable to common shareholders per diluted share should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, net income and net income attributable to common shareholders and other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP. |
|||||||
The Company is required to maintain a minimum level of "EBITDA", as such term is defined in the Company's credit agreement (and which is referred to herein as "Adjusted EBITDA per Credit Facility, as the credit agreement includes additional adjustments beyond interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization). EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per Credit Facility (each as defined below) should not be construed as substitutes for net income or as better measures of liquidity as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Company believes that EBTDA and Adjusted EBITDA per Credit Facility are relevant and useful information widely used by analysts, investors and other interested parties in the Company's industry. |

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