"We continued to make significant progress this quarter toward our key strategic initiatives, including strong signings, controlling SG&A and continued advancements on differentiation," stated Richard L. Gelfond, IMAX Chief Executive Officer. "Looking ahead, our great start to Q4, including IMAX's strong performance on Gravity and Stalingrad, reminds us of the importance of assessing our portfolio of films on an annual basis, which we believe is a relatively predictable driver of box office performance over the long-term."
Network Growth Update
The total IMAX® theatre network consisted of 785 systems as of September 30, 2013, of which 653 were in commercial multiplexes. There were 356 theatre systems in backlog as of September 30, 2013, compared to 285 theatre systems in backlog as of September 30, 2012. IMAX has signed contracts for 158 theatres year-to-date, already surpassing the 142 signings for all of 2012. Neither the backlog number, nor the YTD signings, include the 80 additional theatres still optional under the Wanda contract. For a breakdown of theatre system signings, installations, network and backlog by type, please see the end of this press release.
In the third quarter of 2013, the Company signed contracts for 99 theatre systems, of which 88 were in new theatre locations and 11 were a combination of signings for laser systems and upgrades of certain of the Company's film theatres to digital systems in existing theatre locations. In the quarter, the Company installed 28 theatre systems, of which 19 were in new theatre locations.
"Strong third quarter signings, historic high backlog and many fourth quarter deals either signed or in discussions, provide increased visibility into strong network growth over the long-term," Gelfond continued, "This unit growth, along with our ongoing focus on controlling costs and optimizing our film portfolio, give us confidence in our operating leverage and cash flow potential for the long-term."
Third-Quarter Segment Results
- Revenue from sales and sales-type leases was $6.4 million in the third quarter of 2013, compared to $21.9 million in the third quarter of 2012, primarily reflecting the installation of 5 full, new theatre systems under sales and sales-type lease arrangements in the most recent third quarter, compared to the 14 sales and sales-type theatres the Company installed in the third quarter of 2012.

| Non-GAAP Financial Measures: |
||||||
| In this release, the Company presents adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share as supplemental measures of performance of the Company, which are not recognized under United States generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). 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 Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of not less than 1.1:1. The Company will also be required to maintain minimum EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of $70.0 million between closing and September 30, 2013, which requirement increases to $80.0 million on December 31, 2013, $90.0 million on December 31, 2014, and $100.0 million on December 31, 2015. The Company must also maintain a Maximum Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of 2.5:1 between closing and September 30, 2013, which requirement decreases to (i) 2.25:1 on December 31, 2013; (ii) 2.00:1 on December 31, 2014; and (iii) 1.75:1on December 31, 2015. The ratio of total debt to EBITDA was 0.06:1 as at September 30, 2013, where Total Debt (as defined in the Credit Agreement) is the sum of all obligations evidenced by notes, bonds, debentures or similar instruments and was $5.0 million. EBITDA is calculated as follows: |

| Free Cash Flow: |
|||
| Free cash flow is defined as cash provided by operating activities minus cash used in investing activities (from the 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. A reconciliation of cash provided by operating activities to free cash flow is presented in the table below: |
