Gelfond. "Our rapid global expansion has led to 32% commercial network growth versus the same time last year.  In addition, the box office momentum we experienced in the first quarter has continued into the second quarter, with gross box office to date up roughly 500% versus the same period last year and the summer movie season still ahead.  We believe that the momentum we are currently experiencing, together with our growing network, backlog of theatres, cutting-edge technology and the introduction of our new brand campaign should result in continued growth over the long-term."   **First Quarter Segment Results **First quarter 2012 total film revenue was $19.1 million, compared to $11.5 millionin the first quarter of 2011.  Production and IMAX DMR® revenues were $13.8 millionin the first quarter of 2012, versus $7.3 millionin the year-ago period.  Gross box office from DMR titles was $121.7 millionin the first quarter of 2012, compared to $62.3 millionin the first quarter of 2011.  The average DMR box office per screen in the first quarter of 2012 was $247,600($212,400domestic, $304,100international). "Both our domestic and international theatres enjoyed significant per-screen increases in box office during the quarter, which we attribute in part to the 'halo effect' of _Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol_and being involved in the right titles for the IMAXbrand," added Mr. Gelfond.  "The 2012 IMAXsummer movie season kicks off this week, featuring _The Avengers,__Men in Black 3, Prometheus, The Amazing Spider-Man_and Christopher Nolan's _The Dark Knight Rises_, which will include at least an hour of footage shot using IMAXcameras.  Differentiation continues to be a key focus of our film strategy in 2012 and beyond.  In fact, _The Avengers: An_ IMAX3D_Experience,_ opened in Russiayesterday, a full week in advance of the wide release, and so far we are working with filmmakers on approximately 10 of our 2012 and 2013 films to incorporate various forms of IMAXdifferentiation."   In the first quarter of 2012, revenue from joint revenue sharing arrangements was $11.7 million, compared to $4.0 millionin the prior-year period.  During the quarter, the Company installed 8 new theatres under joint revenue sharing arrangements, compared to 10 in the year-ago period.  As of March 31, 2012, there were 265 IMAX® theatres operating under joint revenue sharing arrangements, compared to 181 joint revenue sharing theatres open as of March 31, 2011. In the first quarter of 2012, IMAXsystems revenue was $15.7 million, compared to $22.3 millionin the first quarter of 2011, primarily reflecting the installation of 8 full, new theatre systems and 10 upgrades in the most recent first quarter, compared to 11 full, new systems and 22 upgrades in the first quarter of 2011. **Network Growth Update **In the first quarter of 2012, the Company signed contracts for 23 theatre systems and installed 26 theatre systems.  There were 261 theatre systems in backlog as of March 31, 2012, compared to 263 systems in backlog as of December 31, 2011and 283 systems in backlog as of March 31, 2011.  As of March 31, 2012, there were a total of 510 IMAXtheatre systems installed in commercial multiplexes, compared to 386 systems at the end of last year's first quarter.  For a breakdown of system signings, installations and backlog by type, please see the end of this press release. **2012 Theatre Installation Schedule from March 31, 2012Backlog **In the first quarter of 2012, the Company installed 16 new IMAXtheatre systems.  For the second quarter of 2012, 17 to 21 new theatre systems in backlog as of March 31, 2012are scheduled to be installed.  There are 62 to 63 new theatre systems in backlog as of March 31, 2012that are scheduled to be installed in the second half of 2012.  However, in any given year, the Company will sign agreements for new theatres that will install within that same year.  Therefore, the Company expects to install more than the 95 to 100 theatres currently scheduled to be installed out of backlog this year.  The Company cautions that installations can slip from period to period, usually for reasons beyond its control.  Mr. Gelfond concluded, "2012 is off to a strong start.  We are still in the early stages of our international expansion, and our pipeline of new theatre deals remains robust.  We believe that the IMAXplatform is becoming increasingly important to our business partners and consumers, and we look forward to bringing The IMAX Experience® to more and more audiences around the world."  First quarter 2012 total revenues were $55.6 million, adjusted net income was $4.0 million, or $0.06per diluted share, reported net income was $2.6 million, or $0.04per diluted share, and adjusted EBITDA as calculated in accordance with the Company's Credit Facility was $16.4 million.  For the first quarter of 2011, the Company recorded revenues of $45.2 million, adjusted net income of $2.5 million, or $0.04per share, a reported net loss of $1.0 million, or $0.02per share, and adjusted EBITDA of $9.0 million.  Last year's reported net loss included a one-time charge of $2.1 million, or $0.03per share, related to an arbitration proceeding arising from a discontinued subsidiary. **Conference Call **The Company will host a conference call today at 8:30 AM ETto discuss its first quarter 2012 financial results.  To access the call via telephone, interested parties should dial (866) 321-6651 approximately 5 to 10 minutes before it begins.  International callers should dial (416) 642-5212.  The participant passcode for the call is 3201874.  This call is also being webcast by Thomson Financialand can be accessed on the 'Investor Relations' section of [www.imax.com](http://www.imax.com).   A replay of the call will be available via webcast on the 'Investor Relations' section of [www.imax.com](http://www.imax.com/)or via telephone by dialing (888) 203-1112, or (647) 436-0148 for international callers.  The participant passcode for the telephone replay is 3201874. **About IMAX Corporation **IMAX Corporationis one of the world's leading entertainment and technology companies, specializing in the creation and delivery of premium, awe-inspiring entertainment experiences.

The Company presents adjusted EBITDA, 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 variable share-based compensation, provision for arbitration award and deferred taxes on its net income. 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 EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share should be considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for, net income and other measures of financial performance reported in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated on a basis consistent with the Company's Credit Facility, which refers to Adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA. The Credit Facility provides that the Company will be required to maintain a ratio of funded debt (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of not more than 2:1. The Company will also be required to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of not less than 1.1:1.0. At all times under the terms of the Credit Facility, the Company is required to maintain minimum Excess Availability of not less than $5.0 million and minimum Cash and Excess Availability of not less than $15.0 million. The ratio of funded debt to EBITDA was 0.73:1 as at March 31, 2012, where Funded Debt (as defined in the Credit Agreement) is the sum of all obligations evidenced by notes, bonds, debentures or similar instruments and was $55.0 million.

Net income for the quarter includes a $0.8 million charge or $0.01 per diluted share (2011 – charge of $1.8 million or $0.03 per diluted share) for variable share-based compensation and a deferred tax provision of $0.7 million or $0.01 per diluted share (2011 – benefit of $0.3 million). In 2011, the Company recognized a one-time charge of $2.1 million ($0.03 per diluted share) due to an award arising from an arbitration proceeding brought against the Company in connection with a discontinued subsidiary, which has since been settled. Adjusted net income, which consists of net income excluding the impact of variable share-based compensation, the deferred tax provision and provision for arbitration award was $4.0 million or $0.06 per diluted share in the first quarter of 2012 as compared to adjusted net income of $2.5 million or $0.04 per diluted share for the first quarter of 2011.
