NEW YORK, March 4, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- IMAX Corporation (NYSE: IMAX) today reported results for the fourth quarter and full year 2020 driven by the strong recovery of the Asian box office, which offered an encouraging sign of continued demand for The IMAX Experience® around the world.
Results for the fourth quarter reflect the strong performance of the IMAX network in China and Japan, where local language releases recorded robust box office at near pre-pandemic levels, tapping into pent-up demand for big screen experiences. Additionally, fourth quarter results benefitted from the Company's continued growth in its global network, demonstrating strong exhibitor and consumer demand for The IMAX Experience®. IMAX installed 33 systems and signed 11 agreements in the fourth quarter, ending the year with 527 systems in backlog.
"As the world's only global blockbuster entertainment platform, we are encouraged to see that audiences are eager to return to the movies where the virus is under control and they feel safe, and this promising trend is reflected in our consistent financial improvement since the start of the pandemic," said IMAX CEO, Richard L. Gelfond. "IMAX continues to lead the recovery of the movie industry in markets like China and Japan as audiences seek out The IMAX Experience®, driving record-breaking performances among local language films, gaining market share, and growing our relationships with local exhibitors, studios, and filmmakers."
"Given strong demand for The IMAX Experience in Asia, the extremely promising pipeline of Hollywood blockbusters, and the accelerating pace of vaccinations in North America and Europe, we remain confident and optimistic that the global film industry is poised for a strong and sustainable recovery in the second half of 2021."
"As we manage through the pandemic, IMAX continues to benefit from its strong, differentiated business model and unique position in the entertainment ecosystem. Our global footprint offers access to open markets and thriving local language film industries. Our premium experience and strong brand help ensure that our passionate, engaged fans will be among the first to return to theaters. Finally, our asset-light, flexible model enables us to manage costs, capitalize on opportunities in this dynamic environment, and generate the improving financial results we posted in the fourth quarter."
IMAX reported fourth quarter 2020 revenues of $56.0 million, gross margin of $20.3 million, and a net (loss) attributable to common shareholders of ($21.2) million, or ($0.36) per diluted share, and operating cash inflows of $7.8 million.
IMAX achieved positive EBITDA per Credit Facility(1) and free cash flow for the first time since the first quarter of 2020, despite capacity limitations and continued delays in the Hollywood film slate. The Company has posted sequential quarterly improvement in EBITDA, cash flow, revenue, and box office since the global impact of the pandemic first took hold in the second quarter of 2020. As a result, the Company continued to strengthen its balance sheet, ending the year with $317 million in cash and cash equivalents, up from $305 million at the close of the third quarter.
IMAX results reflect the COVID-19 related partial closure of the Company's network as well as the inclusion of a number of notable non-cash items, including: a valuation allowance to reduce the value of deferred tax assets of $4.9 million or $0.08 per share; a $3.0 million provision for current expected credit losses reflecting a reduction in the credit quality of the theater receivables balances and the heightened collection risk associated with certain movie studios in foreign markets; and, a $2.9 million write-down of excess and obsolete inventory. The company also recorded a $4.1 million charge associated with the final judgement in a legal matter and received $1.9 million of COVID-19 government relief benefits.

(1) Please refer to the Company's Form 10-K for the period ended December 31, 2020 for additional segment information |
IMAX Technology Network
- IMAX Technology Network revenues decreased 59.1% to $17.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2020, compared to $43.3 million in the prior-year period. The partial closure of the Company's network through the quarter and the release of fewer films, both a result of the COVID-19 global pandemic, drove the decline in gross box office and revenue.
- Gross margin for the IMAX Technology Network declined 70.2% to $7.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2020. The decline was driven by lower segment revenue and ongoing fixed costs associated with the installed IMAX network.
IMAX Technology Sales and Maintenance
- IMAX Technology Sales and Maintenance revenues decreased 52.9% to $36.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2020, compared with $77.3 million in the prior year period. The decline in revenue was the result of installing 12 fewer sales-type-lease and 5 fewer hybrid systems in the quarter.
- Total gross margin for IMAX Technology Sales and Maintenance was $13.6 million compared to $39.5 million in the prior year period. The decrease in gross margin was the result of lower sales activity and revenue in the quarter.
Cash Balances and Outstanding Debt
Total cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2020 were $317 million. Total debt, excluding deferred financing fees, was $306 million as of December 31, 2020.
Share Count and Capital Return
The weighted average diluted shares outstanding at the end of the fourth quarter of 2020 declined 4.4% to 58.9 million, compared to 61.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2019, due primarily to share repurchase activity during the twelve-month period. During the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company did not repurchase any stock. A total of $89.4 million remains available under the Company's outstanding share repurchase authorization, which was extended in June 2020 and now expires in June 2021.

IMAX CORPORATION
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
(in thousands of U.S. dollars)
In this release, the Company presents adjusted net (loss) income attributable to common shareholders and adjusted net (loss) income attributable to common shareholders per diluted share, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA per Credit Facility, Adjusted EBITDA margin, and free cash flow as supplemental measures of the Company's performance, which are not recognized under U.S. GAAP. Adjusted net (loss) income attributable to common shareholders and adjusted net (loss) income attributable to common shareholders per basic and diluted share exclude, where applicable: (i) share-based compensation; (ii) COVID-19 government relief benefits, (iii) legal judgment and arbitration awards; (iv) exit costs, restructuring charges and associated impairments, (v) gain (loss) in the fair value of investments, as well as the related tax impact of these adjustments, and (vi) income taxes resulting from management's decision to no longer indefinitely reinvest the historical earnings of certain foreign subsidiaries.
The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are important supplemental measures that allow management and users of the Company's financial statements to view operating trends and analyze controllable operating performance on a comparable basis between periods without the after-tax impact of share-based compensation and certain unusual items included in net (loss) income attributable to common shareholders. Although share-based compensation is an important aspect of the Company's employee and executive compensation packages, it is a non-cash expense and is excluded from certain internal business performance measures.
A reconciliation from net (loss) income attributable to common shareholders and the associated per share amounts to adjusted net (loss) income attributable to common shareholders and adjusted net (loss) income attributable to common shareholders per diluted share is presented in the table below. Net (loss) income attributable to common shareholders and the associated per share amounts are the most directly comparable GAAP measures because they reflect the earnings relevant to the Company's shareholders, rather than the earnings attributable to non-controlling interests. Accordingly, beginning in the first quarter of 2020, the Company updated its reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to reflect this approach.
In addition to the non-GAAP financial measures discussed above, management also uses "EBITDA," as such term is defined in the Credit Agreement, and which is referred to herein as "Adjusted EBITDA per Credit Facility." As allowed by the Credit Agreement, Adjusted EBITDA per Credit Facility includes adjustments in addition to the exclusion of interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA per Credit Facility measure is presented to allow a more comprehensive analysis of the Company's operating performance and to provide additional information with respect to the Company's compliance against its Credit Agreement requirements when applicable. In addition, the Company believes that Adjusted EBITDA per Credit Facility presents relevant and useful information widely used by analysts, investors and other interested parties in the Company's industry to evaluate, assess and benchmark the Company's results.
EBITDA is defined as net income or loss excluding (i) interest expense, net of interest income; (ii) income tax expense or benefit; and (iii) depreciation and amortization, including film asset amortization. Adjusted EBITDA per Credit Facility is defined as EBITDA excluding: (i) share-based and other non-cash compensation; (ii) gain or loss in fair value of investments; (iii) write-downs, net of recoveries, including asset impairments and credit loss expense; (iv) legal judgment and arbitration award; (v) gain or loss from equity accounted investments; and (vi) exit costs, restructuring charges and associated impairments.
A reconciliation of net loss attributable to common shareholders, which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure, to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA per Credit Facility is presented in the table below. Net loss attributable to common shareholders is the most directly comparable GAAP measure because it reflects the earnings relevant to the Company's shareholders, rather than the earnings attributable to non-controlling interests. Accordingly, beginning in the first quarter of 2020, the Company updated its reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to reflect this approach.
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 (loss) 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 below.
These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled amounts reported by other companies. Additionally, the non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company should not be considered as a substitute for, or superior to, the comparable GAAP amounts.

The Company recognized $1.9 million in benefits from the CEWS program as reductions to Selling, General and Administrative Expenses ($1.4 million) and Costs and Expenses Applicable to Revenues ($0.5 million). |
(3) |
Includes a $0.9 million charge recorded in the second quarter of 2020 within Selling, General and Administrative Expenses that has been reclassified to Legal Judgment and Arbitration Awards in the fourth quarter of 2020 in order to conform to the current period presentation. |
(4) |
For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company recorded a valuation allowance to reduce the value of the deferred tax assets attributable to certain jurisdictions where management cannot reliably estimate future tax liabilities within the next five years, primarily due to uncertainties associated with the COVID-19 global pandemic. As a result, the calculated tax impact as a percentage of the related non-GAAP adjustments is lower than in the prior year. |
