CINEMARK HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
In thousands, except share and per share data
1.   The Company and Basis of Presentation
     Cinemark Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company”) is the second largest motion picture exhibitor in the world, in terms of both attendance and the number of screens in operation, with theatres in the United States (“U.S.”), Canada, Brazil, Mexico, Chile, Colombia, Argentina, Ecuador, Peru, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama and Guatemala. The Company also managed additional theatres in the U.S., Brazil, and Colombia during the nine months ended September 30, 2009.
     The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company, without audit, according to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. In the opinion of management, these interim financial statements reflect all adjustments of a recurring nature necessary to state fairly the financial position and results of operations as of, and for, the periods indicated. Majority-owned subsidiaries that the Company controls are consolidated while those subsidiaries of which the Company owns between 20% and 50% and does not control are accounted for as affiliates under the equity method. Those subsidiaries of which the Company owns less than 20% are generally accounted for as affiliates under the cost method, unless the Company is deemed to have the ability to exercise significant influence over the affiliate, in which case the Company would account for its investment under the equity method. The results of these subsidiaries and affiliates are included in the condensed consolidated financial statements effective with their formation or from their dates of acquisition. Intercompany balances and transactions are eliminated in consolidation.
     These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited annual consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2008, included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed March 13, 2009 by the Company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, are not necessarily indicative of the results to be achieved for the full year.
2.   New Accounting Pronouncements
     In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 141(R)(FASB Accounting Standards Codification [“ASC”] Topic 805), “Business Combinations”. This statement requires all business combinations completed after the effective date to be accounted for by applying the acquisition method (previously referred to as the purchase method); expands the definition of transactions and events that qualify as business combinations; requires that the acquired assets and liabilities, including contingencies, be recorded at the fair value determined on the acquisition date and changes thereafter reflected in income, not goodwill; changes the recognition timing for restructuring costs; and requires acquisition costs to be expensed as incurred rather than being capitalized as part of the cost of acquisition. Adoption of SFAS No. 141(R)(FASB ASC Topic 805) was required for business combinations that occurred after December 15, 2008. The adoption of SFAS No. 141(R) (FASB ASC Topic 805) did not have a significant impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
     In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160 (FASB ASC Topic 810), “Noncontrolling Interest in Consolidated Financial Statements”. This statement establishes new accounting and reporting standards for the noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary and for the deconsolidation of a subsidiary. Specifically, this statement requires the recognition of a noncontrolling interest (minority interest) as equity in the consolidated financial statements and separate from the parent’s equity. The amount of net income attributable to the noncontrolling interest will no longer be shown as an expense item for all periods presented, but will be included in consolidated net income on the face of the income statement. SFAS No. 160 (FASB ASC Topic 810) requires disclosure on the face of the consolidated income statement of the amounts of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and the noncontrolling interest. SFAS No. 160 (FASB ASC Topic 810) clarifies that changes in a parent’s ownership interest in a subsidiary that do not result in deconsolidation are equity transactions if the parent retains its controlling financial interest. In addition, this statement requires that a parent recognize a gain or loss in net income when a subsidiary is deconsolidated. Such gain or loss will be measured using the fair value of the noncontrolling equity investment on the deconsolidation date. SFAS No. 160 (FASB ASC Topic 810) also includes expanded disclosure requirements regarding the interests of the parent and its noncontrolling interest. SFAS No. 160 (FASB ASC Topic 810) was effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. Upon adoption of this statement, the Company has recognized its noncontrolling interests as equity in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, has reflected net income attributable to noncontrolling interests in consolidated net income and has provided, in Note 4, a summary of changes in equity attributable to noncontrolling interests, changes attributable to Cinemark Holdings, Inc. and changes in total equity.

     In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161 (FASB ASC Topic 815) “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities—an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133”. This statement intends to improve financial reporting about derivative instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures about their impact on an entity’s financial position, financial performance, and cash flows. SFAS No. 161 (FASB ASC Topic 815) requires disclosures regarding the objectives for using derivative instruments, the fair values of derivative instruments and their related gains and losses, and the accounting for derivatives and related hedged items. SFAS No. 161 (FASB ASC Topic 815) was effective for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15, 2008, with early adoption permitted. The adoption of SFAS No. 161 (FASB ASC Topic 815) did not impact the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, nor did it have a significant impact on the Company’s disclosures.
     In June 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position Emerging Issues Task Force 03-6-1 (FASB ASC Topic 260), “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities” (“FSP-EITF 03-6-1”). Under FSP-EITF 03-6-1 (FASB ASC Topic 260), unvested share based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and shall be included in the computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method. FSP-EITF 03-6-1 (FASB ASC Topic 260) was effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008, and interim periods within those years and requires retrospective application. The adoption of FSP-EITF 03-6-1 (FASB ASC Topic 260) did not have a significant impact on the Company’s earnings per share calculations.
     In April 2009, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 (FASB ASC Topic 825), “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” (“FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1”). FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 (FASB ASC Topic 825) require that disclosures about the fair value of financial instruments be included in the notes to financial statements issued during interim periods. Fair value information must be presented in the notes to financial statements together with the carrying amounts of the financial instruments. It must be clearly stated whether the amounts are assets or liabilities and how they relate to information presented in the balance sheet. The disclosures must include methods and significant assumptions used to estimate fair values, along with any changes in those methods and assumptions from prior periods. FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 (FASB ASC Topic 825) are effective for interim and annual periods ending after June 15, 2009, with early adoption permitted. Upon adoption of FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1 (FASB ASC Topic 825), the Company added a disclosure regarding the fair value of its long-term debt (see Note 9). Below is a summary of the Company’s financial instruments, both of which are liabilities:

Interest rate swap agreements (see Note 10)
  $ (20,347 )   $ (20,347 )   $ (24,781 )   $ (24,781 )
     In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165 (FASB ASC Topic 855), “Subsequent Events” (“SFAS No. 165”). SFAS No. 165 (FASB ASC Topic 855) should not result in significant changes in the subsequent events that an entity reports. Rather, SFAS No. 165 (FASB ASC Topic 855) introduces the concept of financial statements that are available to be issued. Financial statements are considered available to be issued when they are complete in a form and format that complies with generally accepted accounting principles and all approvals necessary for issuance have been obtained. SFAS No. 165 (FASB ASC Topic 855) was effective for interim or annual financial periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of SFAS No. 165 (FASB ASC Topic 855) did not have a significant impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company has evaluated events through November 6, 2009, the last business day before the condensed consolidated financial statements were issued and the date on which they were available to be issued.
     In June 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168 (FASB ASC Topic 105), “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (“SFAS No. 168”), which authorizes the Codification as the sole source for authoritative generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. (“U.S. GAAP”). SFAS No. 168 (FASB ASC Topic 105) is effective for financial statements issued for reporting periods that end after September 15, 2009. SFAS No. 168 (FASB ASC Topic 105) supersedes all accounting standards in U.S. GAAP, aside from those issued by the SEC. SFAS No. 168 (FASB ASC Topic 105) replaces SFAS No. 162 to establish a new

hierarchy of GAAP sources for non-governmental entities under the FASB Accounting Standards Codification. The adoption of SFAS No. 168 (FASB ASC Topic 105) did not have a significant impact on the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.
3.   Earnings Per Share
     As of January 1, 2009, the Company determined that its unvested share based payment awards that contain non-forfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and have included such participating securities in its computation of earnings per share pursuant to the two-class method.
     Basic earnings per share for the two classes of stock (common stock and unvested restricted stock) is calculated by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock and unvested restricted stock outstanding during the reported period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares of common stock and unvested restricted stock plus the potentially dilutive effect of common equivalent shares outstanding determined under both the two class method and the treasury stock method. For the three months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2009, basic earnings per share was the same under both the two class method and the treasury stock method. For the nine months ended September 30, 2008, basic earnings per share under the two class method was $0.38 per share compared to $0.39 per share under the treasury stock method as previously reported. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008, diluted earnings per share was the same under both the two class method and the treasury stock method. The following table presents computations of basic and diluted earnings per share under the two class method:

6.   Investment in National CineMedia
     In March 2005, Regal Entertainment Inc. (“Regal”) and AMC Entertainment Inc. (“AMC”) formed National CineMedia, LLC, or NCM, and on July 15, 2005, the Company joined NCM, as one of the founding members. NCM operates the largest digital in-theatre network in the U.S. for providing cinema advertising and non-film events and combines the cinema advertising and non-film events businesses of the three largest motion picture exhibitors in the U.S. Upon joining NCM, the Company and NCM entered into an Exhibitor Services Agreement, pursuant to which NCM provides advertising, promotion and event services to the Company’s theatres.
     In consideration for NCM’s exclusive access to the Company’s theatre attendees for on-screen advertising and use of off-screen locations within the Company’s theatres for the lobby entertainment network and lobby promotions, the Company receives a monthly theatre access fee under the Exhibitor Services Agreement. The theatre access fee is composed of a fixed payment per patron, initially seven cents, and a fixed payment per digital screen, which may be adjusted for certain enumerated reasons. The payment per theatre patron will increase by 8% every five years, with the first such increase taking effect after the end of fiscal 2011, and the payment per digital screen, initially eight hundred dollars per digital screen per year, will increase annually by 5%, beginning after 2007. For 2009, the annual payment per digital screen is eight hundred eighty-two dollars. The theatre access fee paid in the aggregate to Regal, AMC and the Company will not be less than 12% of NCM’s Aggregate Advertising Revenue (as defined in the Exhibitor Services Agreement), or it will be adjusted upward to reach this minimum payment. Additionally, with respect to any on-screen advertising time provided to the Company’s beverage concessionaire, the Company is required to purchase such time from NCM at a negotiated rate. The Exhibitor Services Agreement has, except with respect to certain limited services, a term of 30 years.
     During March 2008, NCM performed an initial common unit adjustment calculation in accordance with the Common Unit Adjustment Agreement dated as of February 13, 2007 between NCM, Inc. and the Company, Regal and AMC. The common unit adjustment is based on the change in the number of screens operated by and attendance of the Company, AMC and Regal. As a result of the common unit adjustment calculation, the Company received an additional 846,303 common units of NCM, each of which is convertible into one share of NCM, Inc. common stock. The Company recorded the additional common units received at fair value as an investment with a corresponding adjustment to deferred revenue of $19,020. The common unit adjustment resulted in an increase in the Company’s ownership percentage in NCM from approximately 14.0% to approximately 14.5%. Subsequent to the annual common unit adjustment discussed above, in May 2008, Regal completed an acquisition of another theatre circuit that required an extraordinary common unit adjustment calculation by NCM in accordance with the Common Unit Adjustment Agreement. As a result of this extraordinary common unit adjustment, Regal was granted additional common units of NCM, which resulted in dilution of the Company’s ownership interest in NCM from 14.5% to 14.1%.
     During March 2009, NCM performed its annual common unit adjustment calculation under the Common Unit Adjustment Agreement. As a result of the calculation, the Company received an additional 1,197,303 common units of NCM, each of which is convertible into one share of NCM, Inc. common stock. The Company recorded the additional common units received at fair value as an investment with a corresponding adjustment to deferred revenue of $15,536. The common unit adjustment resulted in a change in the Company’s ownership percentage in NCM from approximately 14.1% to 15.0%. As of September 30, 2009, the Company owned a total of 15,188,955 common units of NCM.
     The Company accounts for its investment in NCM under the equity method of accounting due to its ability to exercise significant control over NCM. The Company has substantial rights as a founding member, including the right to designate a total of two nominees to the ten-member Board of Directors of NCM Inc., the sole manager.

7.   Investment in Digital Cinema Implementation Partners
     On February 12, 2007, the Company, AMC and Regal entered into a joint venture known as Digital Cinema Implementation Partners LLC (“DCIP”) to facilitate the implementation of digital cinema in the Company’s theatres and to establish agreements with major motion picture studios for the financing of digital cinema. Future digital cinema developments will be managed by DCIP, subject to the Company’s approval along with the Company’s partners, AMC and Regal. As of September 30, 2009, the Company has invested $8,000 and has a one-third ownership interest in DCIP. The Company is accounting for its investment in DCIP under the equity method of accounting.
     During the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2009, the Company recorded equity losses in DCIP of $2,303 and $2,508, respectively, relating to this investment. The Company’s investment basis in DCIP was $1,017 and $1,009 at December 31, 2008 and September 30, 2009, respectively, which is included in investments in and advances to affiliates on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
8.   Share Based Awards
     During March 2008, the Company’s board of directors approved the Amended and Restated Cinemark Holdings, Inc. 2006 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “Restated Incentive Plan”). The Restated Incentive Plan amends and restates the 2006 Plan, to (i) increase the number of shares reserved for issuance from 9,097,360 shares of common stock to 19,100,000 shares of common stock and (ii) permit the compensation committee of the Company’s board of directors (the “Compensation Committee”) to award participants restricted stock units and performance awards. The right of a participant to exercise or receive a grant of a restricted stock unit or performance award may be subject to the satisfaction of such performance or objective business criteria as determined by the Compensation Committee. With the exception of the changes identified in (i) and (ii) above, the Restated Incentive Plan does not materially differ from the 2006 Plan. The Restated Incentive Plan was approved by the Company’s stockholders at its annual meeting of stockholders held on May 15, 2008.
     During August 2008, the Company filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form S-8 for the purpose of registering the additional shares available for issuance under the Restated Incentive Plan.

     Restricted Stock Units — During the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Company granted restricted stock units representing 303,168 hypothetical shares of common stock under the Restated Incentive Plan. Similar to the restricted stock unit awards granted during 2008, the restricted stock units vest based on a combination of financial performance factors and continued service. The financial performance factors are based on an implied equity value concept that determines an internal rate of return (“IRR”) during the three fiscal year period ending December 31, 2011 based on a formula utilizing a multiple of Adjusted EBITDA subject to certain specified adjustments (as defined in the restricted stock unit award agreement). The financial performance factors for the restricted stock units have a threshold, target and maximum level of payment opportunity. If the IRR for the three year period is at least 8.5%, which is the threshold, one-third of the restricted stock units vest. If the IRR for the three year period is at least 10.5%, which is the target, two-thirds of the restricted stock units vest. If the IRR for the three year period is at least 12.5%, which is the maximum, 100% of the restricted stock units vest. All payouts of restricted stock units that vest are subject to an additional one year service requirement and will be paid in the form of common stock if the participant continues to provide services through the fourth anniversary of the grant date. Restricted stock unit award participants are eligible to receive dividend equivalent payments if and at the time the restricted stock unit awards become vested.
     Below is a table summarizing the potential awards at each of the three levels of financial performance (excludes estimated forfeitures):
                 
    Number of    
    Shares   Value at
    Vesting   Grant
at IRR of at least 8.5%
    101,051     $ 963  
at IRR of at least 10.5%
    202,117     $ 1,927  
at IRR of at least 12.5%
    303,168     $ 2,891  
     Due to the fact that the IRR for the three year period ending December 31, 2011 cannot be determined at the time of the grants, the Company has estimated that the most likely outcome is the achievement of the mid-point IRR level. As a result, the total compensation expense to be recorded for the restricted stock unit awards is $1,835 assuming a total of 192,407 units will vest at the end of the four year period. The Company assumed forfeiture rates ranging from zero to 5% for the restricted stock unit awards. If during the service period, additional information becomes available to lead the Company to believe a different IRR level will be achieved for the three year period ending December 31, 2011, the Company will reassess the number of units that will vest and adjust its compensation expense accordingly on a prospective basis over the remaining service period.
     Below is a summary of outstanding restricted stock units:

     The Company recorded compensation expense of $538 related to these awards during the nine months ended September 30, 2009. As of September 30, 2009, the remaining unrecognized compensation expense related to these restricted stock unit awards was $2,662 and the weighted average period over which this remaining compensation expense will be recognized is approximately three years.

9.   Long-Term Debt Activity
      Issuance of 8.625% Senior Notes Due 2019
     On June 29, 2009, the Company issued $470,000 aggregate principal amount of 8.625% senior notes due 2019 with an original issue discount of $11,468, resulting in proceeds of approximately $458,532. The proceeds were primarily used to fund the repurchase of the Company’s 9 3/4% senior discount notes discussed below. Interest is payable on June 15 and December 15 of each year beginning on December 15, 2009. The senior notes mature on June 15, 2019. The Company incurred debt issue costs of approximately $12,321 in connection with the issuance, which will be amortized on the straight-line method over the term of the senior notes. The original issue discount is being amortized on the effective interest method over the term of the senior notes.
     The senior notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several senior unsecured basis by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries that guarantee, assume or become liable with respect to any of the Company’s or a guarantor’s debt. The senior notes and the guarantees are senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of the Company’s and its guarantor’s existing and future senior unsecured debt and senior in right of payment to all of the Company’s and its guarantor’s existing and future subordinated debt. The senior notes and the guarantees are effectively subordinated to all of the Company’s and its guarantor’s existing and future secured debt to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt, including all borrowings under the Company’s senior secured credit facility. The senior notes and the guarantees are structurally subordinated to all existing and future debt and other liabilities of the Company’s subsidiaries that do not guarantee the senior notes.
     The indenture to the senior notes contains covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to (1) consummate specified asset sales, (2) make investments or other restricted payments, including paying dividends, making other distributions or repurchasing subordinated debt or equity, (3) incur additional indebtedness and issue preferred stock, (4) enter into transactions with affiliates, (5) enter new lines of business, (6) merge or consolidate with, or sell all or substantially all of its assets to, another person and (7) create liens. Upon a change of control of Cinemark Holdings, Inc., Cinemark, Inc. or Cinemark USA, Inc., the Company would be required to make an offer to repurchase the senior notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, through the date of repurchase. Certain asset dispositions are considered triggering events that may require the Company to use the proceeds from those asset dispositions to make an offer to purchase the notes at 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase if such proceeds are not otherwise used within 365 days as described in the indenture. The indenture governing the senior notes allows the Company to incur additional indebtedness if it satisfies the coverage ratio specified in the indenture, after giving effect to the incurrence of the additional indebtedness, and in certain other circumstances.
     Prior to June 15, 2014, the Company may redeem all or any part of the senior notes at its option at 100% of the principal amount plus a make-whole premium. After June 15, 2014, the Company may redeem the senior notes in whole or in part at redemption prices described in the senior notes. In addition, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the senior notes from the net proceeds of certain equity offerings at the redemption price set forth in the senior notes.
     The Company and its guarantor subsidiaries filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on September 24, 2009 pursuant to which the Company has offered to exchange the senior notes for substantially similar registered senior notes. The exchanged registered senior notes will not contain terms with respect to transfer restrictions or provide for payment of additional interest as specified below. The registration rights agreement provides that (i) the Company will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to have the exchange offer registration statement declared effective by the Commission on or prior to 180 days after the closing of the senior notes offering, (ii) unless the exchange offer would not be permissible by applicable law or Commission policy, the Company will commence the exchange offer and use its commercially reasonable best efforts to issue on the earliest practicable date after the date on which the exchange offer registration statement was declared effective by the Commission, but not later than 30 days thereafter, exchange registered senior notes in exchange for all senior notes tendered prior thereto in the exchange offer and (iii) if obligated to file the shelf registration statement, the Company will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to file the shelf registration statement with the Commission on or prior to 30 days after such filing obligation arises (and in any event within 210 days after the closing of the senior notes offering) and to cause the shelf

registration statement to be declared effective by the Commission on or prior to 180 days after such obligation arises. If applicable, the Company will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to keep the shelf registration statement effective for a period of two years after the closing of the senior notes offering, subject to certain exceptions.
     If (a) the Company fails to file any of the registration statements required by the registration rights agreement on or before the date specified for such filing, (b) any of such registration statements is not declared effective by the Commission on or prior to the date specified for such effectiveness (the “Effectiveness Target Date”), (c) the Company fails to consummate the exchange offer within 30 business days of the effectiveness target date with respect to the exchange offer registration statement or (d) the shelf registration statement or the exchange offer registration statement is declared effective but thereafter ceases to be effective or usable in connection with resales of notes during the periods specified in the registration rights agreement without being succeeded within two business days by a post-effective amendment to such registration statement that cures such failure and that is itself immediately declared effective (each such event a “Registration Default”), the Company will pay additional interest to each holder of secured notes. Such additional interest, with respect to the first 90-day period immediately following the occurrence of any such Registration Default, shall equal an increase in the annual interest rate on the notes by 0.5% per annum.
     The amount of the additional interest will increase by an additional 0.5% per annum with respect to each subsequent 90-day period relating to such Registration Default until all Registration Defaults have been cured, up to a maximum amount of additional interest for all Registration Defaults of 1.0% per annum. The senior notes will not accrue additional interest from and after the third anniversary of the closing of the senior notes offering even if the Company is not in compliance with its obligations under the registration rights agreement. The receipt of additional interest shall be the sole remedy available to holders of senior notes as a result of one or more Registration Defaults. Following the cure of all Registration Defaults, the accrual of additional interest will cease.
     Cash Tender Offer and Subsequent Call of 9 3/4% Senior Discount Notes due 2014
     On June 15, 2009, the Company commenced a cash tender offer for any and all of its 9 3/4% senior discount notes due 2014, of which $419,403 aggregate principal amount at maturity remained outstanding. In connection with the tender offer, the Company solicited consents to adopt proposed amendments to the indenture to eliminate substantially all restrictive covenants and certain events of default provisions. On June 29, 2009, approximately $402,459 aggregate principal amount at maturity of the 9 3/4% senior discount notes were tendered and repurchased by the Company for approximately $433,415, including accrued interest of $11,336 and tender premiums paid of $19,620. The Company funded the repurchase with proceeds from the issuance of the senior notes discussed above.
     Effective as of June 29, 2009, the Company and the Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A. as trustee to the indenture dated March 31, 2004, executed the First Supplemental Indenture to amend the Indenture by eliminating substantially all restrictive covenants and certain events of default provisions.
     On August 3, 2009, the Company delivered to the Bank of New York Trust Company N.A., as trustee, a notice to redeem the $16,944 aggregate principal amount at maturity of the Company’s 9 3/4% senior discount notes remaining outstanding. The notice specified September 8, 2009 as the redemption date, at which time the Company paid approximately $18,564, consisting of a redemption price of 104.875% of the face amount of the discount notes remaining outstanding plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date. The Company funded the redemption with proceeds from the issuance of the senior notes discussed above.
     The Company recorded a loss on early retirement of debt of approximately $27,878 during the nine months ended September 30, 2009, which includes tender and call premiums paid, other tender fees and the write-off of unamortized debt issue costs.
     Fair Value of Long Term Debt
     The Company estimates the fair value of its long term debt using quoted market prices and present value techniques, as appropriate. The carrying value of the Company’s long term debt was $1,546,624 and $1,508,462 as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. The fair value of the Company’s long term debt was $1,557,565 and $1,449,147 as of September 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

10.   Interest Rate Swap Agreements
     During 2007 and 2008, the Company entered into three interest rate swap agreements. The interest rate swap agreements qualify for cash flow hedge accounting. The fair values of the interest rate swaps are recorded on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as an asset or liability with the effective portion of the interest rate swaps’ gains or losses reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and the ineffective portion reported in earnings. The Company’s fair value measurements are based on projected future interest rates as provided by the counterparties to the interest rate swap agreements and the fixed rates that the Company is obligated to pay under these agreements. Therefore, the Company’s measurements use significant unobservable inputs, which fall in Level 3 as defined by ASC Topic 820-10-35.
     In March 2007, the Company entered into two interest rate swap agreements with effective dates of August 13, 2007 and terms of five years each. The interest rate swaps were designated to hedge approximately $500,000 of the Company’s variable rate debt obligations under its senior secured credit facility. Under the terms of the interest rate swap agreements, the Company pays fixed rates of 4.918% and 4.922% on $375,000 and $125,000, respectively, of variable rate debt and receives interest at a variable rate based on the 3-month LIBOR. The 3-month LIBOR rate on each reset date determines the variable portion of the interest rate swaps for the three-month period following the reset date. No premium or discount was incurred upon the Company entering into the interest rate swaps because the pay and receive rates on the interest rate swaps represented prevailing rates for each counterparty at the time the interest rate swaps were consummated. The Company estimates the fair values of the interest rate swaps by comparing estimated future interest payments to be made under forecasted future 3-month LIBOR to the fixed rates in accordance with the interest rate swaps.
     On September 14, 2008, the counterparty to the $375,000 interest rate swap agreement filed for bankruptcy protection. As a result, the Company determined that on September 15, 2008, when the counterparty’s credit rating was downgraded, the interest rate swap was no longer highly effective. On October 1, 2008, this interest rate swap was terminated by the Company. The change in fair value of this interest rate swap agreement from inception to September 14, 2008 was recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. The change in fair value from September 15, 2008 through September 30, 2008 and the gain on termination were recorded in earnings as a component of interest expense during the year ended December 31, 2008. The Company determined that the forecasted transactions hedged by this interest rate swap are still probable to occur, thus the total amount reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss related to this swap of $18,147 is being amortized on a straight-line basis to interest expense over the period during which the forecasted transactions are expected to occur, which is September 15, 2008 through August 13, 2012. The Company amortized approximately $193 and $3,475 to interest expense during the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2009, respectively. The Company will amortize approximately $4,633 to interest expense over the next twelve months.
     On October 3, 2008, the Company entered into one interest rate swap agreement with an effective date of November 14, 2008 and a term of four years. The interest rate swap was designated to hedge approximately $100,000 of the Company’s variable rate debt obligations under its senior secured credit facility for three years and $75,000 of the Company’s variable rate debt obligations under its senior secured credit facility for four years. Under the terms of the interest rate swap agreement, the Company pays a fixed rate of 3.63% on $175,000 of variable rate debt and receives interest at a variable rate based on the 1-month LIBOR. The 1-month LIBOR rate on each reset date determines the variable portion of the interest rate swap for the one-month period following the reset date. No premium or discount was incurred upon the Company entering into the interest rate swap because the pay and receive rates on the interest rate swap represented prevailing rates for the counterparty at the time the interest rate swap was consummated.
     As of September 30, 2009, the fair values of the $125,000 interest rate swap and the $175,000 interest rate swap were liabilities of approximately $11,183 and $9,164, respectively which have been recorded as a component of other long-term liabilities. A corresponding cumulative amount of $12,503, net of taxes, has been recorded as an increase in accumulated other comprehensive loss on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2009. The interest rate swaps exhibited no ineffectiveness during the nine months ended September 30, 2009.

     The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment on an annual basis during the fourth quarter or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate, the carrying value of goodwill might exceed its estimated fair value.
     The Company evaluates goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level and has allocated goodwill to the reporting unit based on an estimate of its relative fair value. The Company considers the reporting unit to be each of its sixteen regions in the U.S. and each of its eight countries internationally (Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama and Guatemala are considered one reporting unit). Goodwill impairment is evaluated using a two-step approach requiring the Company to compute the fair value of a reporting unit and compare it with its carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value, a second step is performed to measure the potential goodwill impairment. Fair values are determined based on a multiple of cash flows, which was six and a half times for the evaluation performed during the fourth quarter of 2008. These fair value estimates fall in Level 3 as defined by ASC Topic 820-10-35. Significant judgment is involved in estimating cash flows and fair value. Management’s estimates are based on historical and projected operating performance as well as recent market transactions.

12.   Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
     The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment indicators on a quarterly basis or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable.
     The Company considers actual theatre level cash flows, future years budgeted theatre level cash flows, theatre property and equipment carrying values, amortizing intangible assets carrying values, the age of a recently built theatre, competitive theatres in the marketplace, changes in foreign currency exchange rates, the impact of recent ticket price changes, available lease renewal options and other factors considered relevant in its assessment of impairment of individual theatre assets. Long-lived assets are evaluated for impairment on an individual theatre basis, which the Company believes is the lowest applicable level for which there are identifiable cash flows. The impairment evaluation is based on the estimated cash flows from continuing use through the remainder of the theatre’s useful life. The remainder of the useful life correlates with the available remaining lease period, which includes the probability of renewal periods for leased properties and a period of twenty years for fee owned properties. If the estimated cash flows are not sufficient to recover a long-lived asset’s carrying value, the Company then compares the carrying value of the asset group (theatre) with its estimated fair value. Fair value is determined based on a multiple of cash flows, which was eight times for the

evaluations performed during the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and six and a half times for the evaluations performed during the nine months ended September 30, 2009. When estimated fair value is determined to be lower than the carrying value of the asset group (theatre), the asset group (theatre) is written down to its estimated fair value. These fair value estimates fall in Level 3 as defined by ASC Topic 820-10-35. The estimated aggregate fair value of the long-lived assets impaired during the nine months ended September 30, 2009 was approximately $7,000. Significant judgment is involved in estimating cash flows and fair value. Management’s estimates are based on historical and projected operating performance as well as recent market transactions.

13. Foreign Currency Translation
     The accumulated other comprehensive loss account in stockholders’ equity of $72,347 and $18,962 at December 31, 2008 and September 30, 2009, respectively, includes the cumulative foreign currency adjustments from translating the financial statements of the Company’s international subsidiaries into U.S. dollars.
     In 2008 and 2009, all foreign countries where the Company has operations were deemed non-highly inflationary and where the local currency is the same as the functional currency. Thus, any fluctuation in the currency results in a cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment recorded to accumulated other comprehensive loss.
     On September 30, 2009, the exchange rate for the Brazilian real was 1.79 reais to the U.S. dollar (the exchange rate was 2.36 reais to the U.S. dollar at December 31, 2008). As a result, the effect of translating the September 30, 2009 Brazilian financial statements into U.S. dollars is reflected as a cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment to the accumulated other comprehensive loss account as an increase in stockholders’ equity of $44,283. At September 30, 2009, the total assets of the Company’s Brazilian subsidiaries were U.S. $242,141.
     On September 30, 2009, the exchange rate for the Mexican peso was 13.56 pesos to the U.S. dollar (the exchange rate was 13.78 pesos to the U.S. dollar at December 31, 2008). As a result, the effect of translating the September 30, 2009 Mexican financial statements into U.S. dollars is reflected as a cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment to the accumulated other comprehensive loss account as a decrease in stockholders’ equity of $347. At September 30, 2009, the total assets of the Company’s Mexican subsidiaries were U.S. $126,659.
     On September 30, 2009, the exchange rate for the Chilean peso was 555.30 pesos to the U.S. dollar (the exchange rate was 648.00 pesos to the U.S. dollar at December 31, 2008). As a result, the effect of translating the September 30, 2009 Chilean financial statements into U.S. dollars is reflected as a cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment to the accumulated other comprehensive loss account as an increase in stockholders’ equity of $2,215. At September 30, 2009, the total assets of the Company’s Chilean subsidiaries were U.S. $26,242.
     The effect of translating the September 30, 2009 financial statements of the Company’s other international subsidiaries, with local currencies other than the U.S. dollar, is reflected as a cumulative foreign currency translation adjustment to the accumulated other comprehensive loss account as an increase in stockholders’ equity of $997.

17. Related Party Transactions
     The Company leases one theatre from Plitt Plaza Joint Venture (“Plitt Plaza”) on a month-to-month basis. Plitt Plaza is indirectly owned by Lee Roy Mitchell, who owns approximately 12% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock. Annual rent is approximately $118 plus certain taxes, maintenance expenses and insurance. The Company recorded $95 and $89 of facility lease and other operating expenses payable to Plitt Plaza joint venture during the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2009, respectively.
     The Company manages one theatre for Laredo Theatre, Ltd. (“Laredo”). The Company is the sole general partner and owns 75% of the limited partnership interests of Laredo. Lone Star Theatres, Inc. owns the remaining 25% of the limited partnership interests in Laredo and is 100% owned by Mr. David Roberts, Lee Roy Mitchell’s son-in-law. Under the agreement, management fees are paid by Laredo to the Company at a rate of 5% of annual theatre revenues up to $50,000 and 3% of annual theatre revenues in excess of $50,000. The Company recorded $72 and $81 of management fee revenues during the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2009, respectively. All such amounts are included in the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements with the intercompany amounts eliminated in consolidation.
     The Company leases 22 theatres and two parking facilities from Syufy Enterprises, LP (“Syufy”) or affiliates of Syufy, which owns approximately 8% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares of common stock. Raymond Syufy is one of the Company’s directors and is an officer of the general partner of Syufy. Of these 24 leases, 20 have fixed minimum annual rent in an aggregate amount of approximately $21,646. The four leases without minimum annual rent have rent based upon a specified percentage of gross sales as defined in the lease with no minimum annual rent. For the nine months ended September 30, 2008 and 2009, the Company paid approximately $1,012 and $949, respectively, in percentage rent for these four leases.
18. Commitments and Contingencies
     From time to time, the Company is involved in various legal proceedings arising from the ordinary course of its business operations, such as personal injury claims, employment matters, landlord-tenant disputes and contractual disputes, some of which are covered by insurance. The Company believes its potential liability with respect to proceedings currently pending is not material, individually or in the aggregate, to the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
19. Subsequent Event — Dividend Declaration
     On November 4, 2009, the Company’s board of directors declared a cash dividend in the amount of $0.18 per common share payable to stockholders of record on November 25, 2009. The dividend will be paid on December 10, 2009.

     Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
     The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes and schedules included elsewhere in this report.
     We are the second largest motion picture exhibitor in the world, in terms of both attendance and the number of screens in operation, with theatres in the U.S., Canada, Brazil, Mexico, Chile, Colombia, Argentina, Ecuador, Peru, Honduras, El Salvador, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama and Guatemala. For financial reporting purposes at September 30, 2009, we have two reportable operating segments, our U.S. operations and our international operations.
     We generate revenues primarily from box office receipts and concession sales with additional revenues from screen advertising sales and other revenue streams, such as vendor marketing programs, pay phones, ATM machines and electronic video games located in some of our theatres. Our investment in NCM has assisted us in expanding our offerings to advertisers, exploring ancillary revenue sources such as digital video monitor advertising, third party branding, and the use of theatres for non-film events. In addition, we are able to use theatres during non-peak hours for concerts, sporting events, and other cultural events. Successful films released during the nine months ended September 30, 2009 included Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, G.I. Joe: the Rise of the Cobra, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, Disney Pixar’s Up, Star Trek, The Hangover, Night at the Museum 2: Battle of the Smithsonian, Monsters vs. Aliens, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, Taken, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, The Proposal and Fast & Furious. Film releases scheduled for the remainder of 2009 include Twilight 2: New Moon, Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakuel, Paranormal Activity, Where the Wild Things Are, 2012, Old Dogs, Sherlock Holmes, The Lovely Bones, The Princess and the Frog, and 3-D movies such as Avatar and A Christmas Carol. Our revenues are affected by changes in attendance and average admissions and concession revenues per patron. Attendance is primarily affected by the quality and quantity of films released by motion picture studios.
     Film rental costs are variable in nature and fluctuate with our admissions revenues. Film rental costs as a percentage of revenues are generally higher for periods in which more blockbuster films are released. Film rental costs can also vary based on the length of a film’s run. Film rental rates are negotiated on a film-by-film and theatre-by-theatre basis. Advertising costs, which are expensed as incurred, are primarily fixed at the theatre level as daily movie directories placed in newspapers represent the largest component of advertising costs. The monthly cost of these advertisements is based on, among other things, the size of the directory and the frequency and size of the newspaper’s circulation.
     Concession supplies expense is variable in nature and fluctuates with our concession revenues. We purchase concession supplies to replace units sold. We negotiate prices for concession supplies directly with concession vendors and manufacturers to obtain bulk rates.
     Although salaries and wages include a fixed cost component (i.e. the minimum staffing costs to operate a theatre facility during non-peak periods), salaries and wages move in relation to revenues as theatre staffing is adjusted to address changes in attendance.
     Facility lease expense is primarily a fixed cost at the theatre level as most of our facility leases require a fixed monthly minimum rent payment. Certain of our leases are subject to percentage rent only while others are subject to percentage rent in addition to their fixed monthly rent if a target annual revenue level is achieved. Facility lease expense as a percentage of revenues is also affected by the number of theatres under operating leases versus the number of theatres under capital leases and the number of fee-owned theatres.
     Utilities and other costs include certain costs that possess both fixed and variable components such as utilities, property taxes, janitorial costs, repairs and maintenance and security services.
Recent Developments
     On November 4, 2009, our board of directors declared a cash dividend in the amount of $0.18 per common share payable to stockholders of record on November 25, 2009. The dividend will be paid on December 10, 2009.

The increase in concession revenues of $6.9 million was primarily attributable to the 4.5% increase in attendance, while concession revenues per patron remained constant at $2.53 for the third quarter of 2009. The 3.2% decrease in other revenues was primarily due to decreases in ancillary revenue and the unfavorable impact of exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate.
U.S. The increase in admissions revenues of $11.5 million was primarily attributable to a 4.1% increase in attendance and a 0.8% increase in average ticket price from $5.97 for the third quarter of 2008 to $6.02 for the third quarter of 2009. The increase in concession revenues of $7.3 million was primarily attributable to the 4.1% increase in attendance and a 2.1% increase in concession revenues per patron from $2.86 for the third quarter of 2008 to $2.92 for the third quarter of 2009. The increase in average ticket price was primarily due to incremental 3-D pricing. The increase in concession revenues per patron was due to a kid-friendly film mix and price increases.
International. The increase in admissions revenues of $2.9 million was primarily attributable to a 5.4% increase in attendance, partially offset by a 1.3% decrease in average ticket price from $3.97 for the third quarter of 2008 to $3.92 for the third quarter of 2009. The decrease in concession revenues of $0.4 million was primarily attributable to a 6.6% decrease in concession revenues per patron from $1.83 for the third quarter of 2008 to $1.71 for the third quarter of 2009, partially offset by the 5.4% increase in attendance. The decreases in average ticket price and concession revenues per patron were primarily due to the unfavorable impact of exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate. The 9.4% decrease in other revenues was primarily due to decreases in ancillary revenue and the unfavorable impact of exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate.

Salaries and wages increased to $9.4 million for the third quarter of 2009 from $9.2 million for the third quarter of 2008 primarily due to increased staffing levels to support the 5.4% increase in attendance and new theatre openings, partially offset by the impact of exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate. Facility lease expense decreased to $16.4 million for the third quarter of 2009 from $16.8 million for the third quarter of 2008 primarily due to the impact of exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate. Utilities and other costs increased to $16.3 million for the third quarter of 2009 from $15.5 million for the third quarter of 2008 primarily due to new theatres, increased repairs and maintenance expense and increased 3-D equipment rental fees.
     General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased to $23.5 million for the third quarter of 2009 from $22.7 million for the third quarter of 2008. The increase was primarily due to increased incentive compensation expense, increased professional fees and increased service charges related to increased credit card activity.
     Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense, including amortization of favorable/unfavorable leases, was $38.5 million for the third quarter of 2009 compared to $38.8 million for the third quarter of 2008. The decrease was primarily due to the impact of exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate.
     Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. We recorded asset impairment charges on assets held and used of $3.1 million for the third quarter of 2009 compared to $2.3 million for the third quarter of 2008. Impairment charges for the third quarter of 2009 were primarily for U.S. theatre properties, which were directly and individually impacted by increased competition or changes in their respective market.
     Loss on Sale of Assets and Other. We recorded a loss on sale of assets and other of $0.9 million during the third quarter of 2009 compared to $2.3 million during the third quarter of 2008.
     Interest Expense. Interest costs incurred, including amortization of debt issue costs, were $25.9 million for the third quarter of 2009 compared to $27.6 million for the third quarter of 2008. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in interest rates on our variable rate debt.
     Interest Income. We recorded interest income of $1.0 million during the third quarter of 2009 compared to $3.8 million during the third quarter of 2008. The decrease was primarily due to lower interest rates earned on our cash investments.
     Loss on Early Retirement of Debt. During the third quarter of 2009, we recorded a loss on early retirement of debt of $1.1 million as a result of the call premiums paid and other fees related to the repurchase of the remaining $16.9 million aggregate principal amount at maturity of Cinemark, Inc.’s 9 3/4% senior discount notes and the write-off of unamortized debt issue costs associated with these notes.
     Distributions from NCM. We recorded distributions from NCM of $4.2 million during the third quarter of 2009 and $3.6 million during the third quarter of 2008, which were in excess of the carrying value of our investment. See Note 6 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
     Income Taxes. Income tax expense of $12.2 million was recorded for the third quarter of 2009 compared to $10.4 million for the third quarter of 2008. The effective tax rate was 35.6% for the third quarter of 2009 compared to 32.1% for the third quarter of 2008.

Consolidated. The increase in admissions revenues of $76.6 million was primarily attributable to a 9.1% increase in attendance, partially offset by a 0.4% decrease in average ticket price from $5.38 for the 2008 period to $5.36 for the 2009 period. The increase in concession revenues of $32.2 million was primarily attributable to the 9.1% increase in attendance, partially offset by a 1.2% decrease in concession revenues per patron from $2.55 for the 2008 period to $2.52 for the 2009 period. The decreases in average ticket price and concession revenues per patron were primarily due to the unfavorable impact of exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate. The 5.4% decrease in other revenues was primarily due to decreases in ancillary revenue and the unfavorable impact of exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate.
U.S. The increase in admissions revenues of $76.1 million was primarily attributable to an 8.9% increase in attendance and a 2.3% increase in average ticket price from $5.99 for the 2008 period to $6.13 for the 2009 period. The increase in concession revenues of $33.5 million was primarily attributable to the 8.9% increase in attendance and a 1.4% increase in concession revenues per patron from $2.88 for the 2008 period to $2.92 for the 2009 period. The increase in average ticket price was primarily due to incremental 3-D pricing and other price increases and the increase in concession revenues per patron was primarily due to price increases.
International. The increase in admissions revenues of $0.5 million was primarily attributable to a 9.7% increase in attendance, partially offset by an 8.6% decrease in average ticket price from $3.96 for the 2008 period to $3.62 for the 2009 period. The decrease in concession revenues of $1.3 million was primarily attributable to a 10.2% decrease in concession revenues per patron from $1.77 for the 2008 period to $1.59 for the 2009 period, partially offset by the 9.7% increase in attendance. The decreases in average ticket price and concession revenues per patron were primarily due to the unfavorable impact of exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate. The 15.4% decrease in other revenues was primarily due to decreases in ancillary revenue and the unfavorable impact of exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate.

Table of Contents

     General and Administrative Expenses. General and administrative expenses increased to $69.0 million for the 2009 period from $67.8 million for the 2008 period. The increase was primarily due to increased compensation expense and increased service charges related to increased credit card activity partially offset by decreased legal and professional fees.
     Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense, including amortization of favorable/unfavorable leases, was $112.8 million for the 2009 period compared to $115.5 million for the 2008 period. The decrease was due to the impact of exchange rates in certain countries in which we operate.
     Impairment of Long-Lived Assets. We recorded asset impairment charges on assets held and used of $8.1 million for the 2009 period compared to $8.1 million for the 2008 period. Impairment charges for the 2009 and 2008 periods were primarily for U.S. theatre properties, which were directly and individually impacted by increased competition or changes in their respective market.
     Loss on Sale of Assets and Other. We recorded a loss on sale of assets and other of $2.4 million during the 2009 period compared to $3.2 million during the 2008 period.
     Interest Expense. Interest costs incurred, including amortization of debt issue costs, were $77.0 million for the 2009 period compared to $89.7 million for the 2008 period. The decrease was primarily due to decreases in interest rates on our variable rate debt.
     Interest Income. We recorded interest income of $3.8 million during the 2009 period compared to $10.5 million during the 2008 period. The decrease in interest income was primarily due to lower interest rates earned on our cash investments.
     Loss on Early Retirement of Debt. During the 2009 period, we recorded a loss on early retirement of debt of $27.9 million as a result of the tender and call premiums paid and other fees related to the repurchase of approximately $419.4 million aggregate principal amount at maturity of Cinemark, Inc.’s 9 3/4% senior discount notes and the write-off of unamortized debt issue costs associated with these notes.
     Distributions from NCM. We recorded distributions from NCM of $15.8 million during the 2009 period and $12.2 million during the 2008 period, which were in excess of the carrying value of our investment. See Note 6 to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
     Income Taxes. Income tax expense of $31.1 million was recorded for the 2009 period compared to $25.8 million for the 2008 period. The effective tax rate was 34.1% for the 2009 period compared to 36.5% for the 2008 period. Income tax expense for the 2009 period includes the impact of two discrete items, including an adjustment to our deferred tax liability and an increase to our foreign unrecognized tax benefits. The net impact of the two items on income tax expense for the 2009 period was a benefit of approximately $4.9 million. Neither item resulted in a current year payment of income taxes. Income tax provisions for interim (quarterly) periods are based on estimated annual income tax rates and are adjusted for the effects of significant, infrequent or unusual items (i.e. discrete items) occurring during the interim period. As a result, the interim rate may vary significantly from the normalized annual rate.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
     Operating Activities
     We primarily collect our revenues in cash, mainly through box office receipts and the sale of concessions. In addition, a majority of our theatres provide the patron a choice of using a credit card, in place of cash, which we convert to cash over a range of one to six days. Because our revenues are received in cash prior to the payment of related expenses, we have an operating “float” and historically have not required traditional working capital financing. Cash provided by operating activities was $30.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $169.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities is due to the repurchase of approximately $419.4 million of our 9 3/4% senior discount notes, which included payment of $158.3 million of accreted interest that had accreted on the senior discount notes since issuance during 2004. The principal portion of the repurchase is reflected as a financing activity.

     Investing Activities
     Our investing activities have been principally related to the development and acquisition of additional theatres. New theatre openings and acquisitions historically have been financed with internally generated cash and by debt financing, including borrowings under our senior secured credit facility. Cash used for investing activities was $145.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to $58.5 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. The increase in cash used for investing activities is primarily due to the acquisition of theatres in the U.S. for approximately $49.0 million (see Note 5 to the condensed consolidated financial statements) and the acquisition of one theatre in Brazil for approximately $9.1 million.
     Capital expenditures for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 and 2008 were as follows (in millions):
                         
    New   Existing    
Period   Theatres   Theatres   Total
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2009
  $ 32.1     $ 53.5     $ 85.6  
Nine Months Ended September 30, 2008
  $ 48.4     $ 22.9     $ 71.3  
     We continue to expand our U.S. theatre circuit. We acquired four theatres with 82 screens, built three theatres with 38 screens and closed four theatres with 20 screens during the nine months ended September 30, 2009, bringing our total domestic screen count to 3,842. At September 30, 2009, we had signed commitments to open one new theatre with 16 screens in domestic markets during the remainder of 2009 and open six new theatres with 80 screens subsequent to 2009. We estimate the remaining capital expenditures for the development of these 96 domestic screens will be approximately $34 million. Actual expenditures for continued theatre development and acquisitions are subject to change based upon the availability of attractive opportunities.
     We also continue to expand our international theatre circuit. We acquired one theatre with 15 screens, built five theatres with 29 screens and closed three theatres and 19 screens during the nine months ended September 30, 2009, bringing our total international screen count to 1,066. At September 30, 2009, we had signed commitments to open two new theatres with 14 screens in international markets during the remainder of 2009 and open four new theatres with 32 screens subsequent to 2009. We estimate the remaining capital expenditures for the development of these 46 international screens will be approximately $23 million. Actual expenditures for continued theatre development and acquisitions are subject to change based upon the availability of attractive opportunities.
     We plan to fund capital expenditures for our continued development with cash flow from operations, borrowings under our senior secured credit facility, from debt issuances, proceeds from sale leaseback transactions and/or sales of excess real estate.
     Financing Activities
     Cash provided by financing activities was $111.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 compared to cash used for financing activities of $74.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2008. The increase in cash provided by financing activities is primarily due to the net proceeds of $458.5 million from the issuance of our $470 million 8.625% senior notes, partially offset by the repurchase of approximately $419.4 million of our 9 3/4% senior discount notes, the aggregate principal portion of which was $261.1 million. The interest portion of the repurchase is reflected as an operating activity.
     On February 13, 2009, our board of directors declared a cash dividend for the fourth quarter of 2008 in the amount of $0.18 per share of common stock payable to stockholders of record on March 5, 2009. The dividend was paid on March 20, 2009 in the total amount of approximately $19.6 million.

(1)   Includes the $470.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 8 5/8% senior notes net of the discount of $11.3 million.
      As of September 30, 2009, we had borrowings of $1,086.4 million outstanding on the term loan under our senior secured credit facility, $470.0 million aggregate principal amount outstanding under our 8 5/8% senior notes and approximately $0.2 million aggregate principal amount outstanding under our 9% senior subordinated notes, respectively. We had a minimum of approximately $121.5 million in available borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility. The availability of our revolving credit facility may have recently been impacted by the insolvency of one of the lenders under our facility. As such, it is uncertain whether this lender would fund its $28.5 million commitment under the $150.0 million revolving credit facility. We were in full compliance with all covenants governing our outstanding debt at September 30, 2009.
     As of September 30, 2009, our long-term debt obligations, scheduled interest payments on long-term debt, future minimum lease obligations under non-cancelable operating and capital leases, scheduled interest payments under capital leases and other obligations for each period indicated are summarized as follows:

      Cinemark, Inc. 9 3/4% Senior Discount Notes
     On March 31, 2004, Cinemark, Inc. issued $577.2 million aggregate principal amount at maturity of 9 3/4% senior discount notes due 2014. Interest on the notes accreted until March 15, 2009 up to their aggregate principal amount. Cash

Table of Contents

interest accrued and was payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15, commencing on September 15, 2009. Payments of principal and interest under these notes were dependent on loans, dividends and other payments from Cinemark, Inc.’s subsidiaries.
     Prior to 2008, Cinemark, Inc. repurchased on the open market a total of $110.8 million aggregate principal amount at maturity of its 9 3/4% senior discount notes for approximately $96.7 million, including accreted interest. Cinemark, Inc. funded these transactions with available cash from its operations and proceeds from our initial public offering.
     During 2008, in ten open market purchases, Cinemark, Inc. repurchased $47.0 million aggregate principal amount at maturity of its 9 3/4% senior discount notes for approximately $42.2 million, including accreted interest. Cinemark, Inc. funded the transactions with proceeds from our initial public offering.
     On June 15, 2009, Cinemark, Inc. commenced a cash tender offer for any and all of its 9 3/4% senior discount notes due 2014, of which $419.4 million aggregate principal amount at maturity remained outstanding. In connection with the tender offer, Cinemark, Inc. solicited consents to adopt proposed amendments to the indenture to eliminate substantially all restrictive covenants and certain events of default provisions. On June 29, 2009, approximately $402.5 million aggregate principal amount at maturity of the 9 3/4% senior discount notes were tendered and repurchased by us for approximately $433.4 million, including accrued interest of $11.3 million and tender premiums paid of $19.6 million. We funded the repurchase with the proceeds from the issuance of the Cinemark USA, Inc. 8.625% senior notes discussed below.
     Effective as of June 29, 2009, Cinemark, Inc. and the Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A. as trustee to the indenture dated March 31, 2004, executed the First Supplemental Indenture to amend the Indenture by eliminating substantially all restrictive covenants and certain events of default provisions.
     On August 3, 2009, we delivered to the Bank of New York Trust Company N.A., as trustee, a notice to redeem the $16.9 million aggregate principal amount at maturity of our 9 3/4% senior discount notes remaining outstanding. The senior discount notes were redeemed on September 8, 2009, at which time we paid approximately $18.6 million, consisting of a redemption price of 104.875% of the face amount of the discount notes remaining outstanding plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the redemption date. We used proceeds from the issuance of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s senior notes to fund the repurchase.
      Cinemark USA, Inc. 8 5/8% Senior Notes
     On June 29, 2009, Cinemark USA, Inc. issued $470.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8.625% senior notes due 2019 with an original issue discount of approximately $11.5 million, resulting in proceeds of approximately $458.5 million. The proceeds were primarily used to fund the repurchase of Cinemark, Inc.’s 9 3/4% senior discount notes discussed above. Interest is payable on June 15 and December 15 of each year beginning on December 15, 2009.
     The senior notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several senior unsecured basis by certain of our subsidiaries that guarantee, assume or become liable with respect to any of our or our guarantor’s debt. The senior notes and the guarantees are senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of our and our guarantor’s existing and future senior unsecured debt and senior in right of payment to all of our and our guarantor’s existing and future subordinated debt. The senior notes and the guarantees are effectively subordinated to all of our and our guarantor’s existing and future secured debt to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt, including all borrowings under our senior secured credit facility. The senior notes and the guarantees are structurally subordinated to all existing and future debt and other liabilities of our subsidiaries that do not guarantee the senior notes.
     The indenture to the senior notes contains covenants that limit, among other things, the ability of Cinemark USA, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries to (1) consummate specified asset sales, (2) make investments or other restricted payments, including paying dividends, making other distributions or repurchasing subordinated debt or equity, (3) incur additional indebtedness and issue preferred stock, (4) enter into transactions with affiliates, (5) enter new lines of business, (6) merge or consolidate with, or sell all or substantially all of its assets to another person and (7) create liens. Upon a change of control of Cinemark Holdings, Inc., Cinemark, Inc. or Cinemark USA, Inc., Cinemark USA, Inc. would be required to make an offer to repurchase the senior notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding plus accrued and unpaid interest through the date of repurchase. Certain asset dispositions are considered triggering events that may require Cinemark USA, Inc. to use the proceeds from those asset dispositions to make an offer to purchase the notes at 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase if such proceeds are not otherwise used within 365 days as described in the indenture. The indenture governing the senior notes allows

35


Table of Contents

Cinemark USA, Inc. to incur additional indebtedness if we satisfy the coverage ratio specified in the indenture, after giving effect to the incurrence of the additional indebtedness, and in certain other circumstances. The required minimum coverage ratio is 2 to 1 and our actual ratio as of September 30, 2009 was 5.6 to 1.
     Prior to June 15, 2014, Cinemark USA, Inc. may redeem all or any part of the senior notes at its option at 100% of the principal amount plus a make-whole premium. After June 15, 2014, Cinemark USA, Inc. may redeem the senior notes in whole or in part at redemption prices described in the senior notes. In addition, Cinemark USA, Inc. may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the senior notes from the net proceeds of certain equity offerings at the redemption price set forth in the senior notes.
     We filed a registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on September 24, 2009 pursuant to which we offered to exchange the senior notes for substantially similar registered senior notes. The exchanged registered senior notes will not contain terms with respect to transfer restrictions or provide for payment of additional interest as specified below. The registration rights agreement provides that (i) we will use our commercially reasonable best efforts to have the exchange offer registration statement declared effective by the Commission on or prior to 180 days after the closing of the senior notes offering, (ii) unless the exchange offer would not be permissible by applicable law or Commission policy, we will commence the exchange offer and use our commercially reasonable best efforts to issue on the earliest practicable date after the date on which the exchange offer registration statement was declared effective by the Commission, but not later than 30 days thereafter, exchange registered senior notes in exchange for all senior notes tendered prior thereto in the exchange offer and (iii) if obligated to file the shelf registration statement, we will use our commercially reasonable best efforts to file the shelf registration statement with the Commission on or prior to 30 days after such filing obligation arises (and in any event within 210 days after the closing of the senior notes offering) and to cause the shelf registration statement to be declared effective by the Commission on or prior to 180 days after such obligation arises. If applicable, we will use our commercially reasonable best efforts to keep the shelf registration statement effective for a period of two years after the closing of the senior notes offering, subject to certain exceptions.
     If (a) we fail to file any of the registration statements required by the registration rights agreement on or before the date specified for such filing, (b) any of such registration statements is not declared effective by the Commission on or prior to the date specified for such effectiveness (the “Effectiveness Target Date”), (c) we fail to consummate the exchange offer within 30 business days of the effectiveness target date with respect to the exchange offer registration statement or (d) the shelf registration statement or the exchange offer registration statement is declared effective but thereafter ceases to be effective or usable in connection with resales of notes during the periods specified in the registration rights agreement without being succeeded within two business days by a post-effective amendment to such registration statement that cures such failure and that is itself immediately declared effective (each such event a “Registration Default”), we will pay additional interest to each holder of secured notes. Such additional interest, with respect to the first 90-day period immediately following the occurrence of any such Registration Default, shall equal an increase in the annual interest rate on the notes by 0.5% per annum.
     The amount of the additional interest will increase by an additional 0.5% per annum with respect to each subsequent 90-day period relating to such Registration Default until all Registration Defaults have been cured, up to a maximum amount of additional interest for all Registration Defaults of 1.0% per annum. The senior notes will not accrue additional interest from and after the third anniversary of the closing of the senior notes offering even if we are not in compliance with our obligations under the registration rights agreement. The receipt of additional interest shall be the sole remedy available to holders of senior notes as a result of one or more Registration Defaults. Following the cure of all Registration Defaults, the accrual of additional interest will cease.
     Senior Secured Credit Facility
     On October 5, 2006, Cinemark USA, Inc., entered into a senior secured credit facility, which provided for a seven-year term loan of $1.12 billion and a $150.0 million revolving credit line that matures in six years.
     At September 30, 2009, there was $1,086.4 million outstanding under the term loan and no borrowings outstanding under our revolving credit line. We had a minimum of approximately $121.5 million in available borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility. The availability of our revolving credit facility may have recently been impacted by the insolvency of one of the lenders under the facility. As such, it is uncertain whether we could borrow the portion that would be funded by this insolvent lender, which is approximately $28.5 million. The average interest rate on outstanding term loan borrowings under the senior secured credit facility at September 30, 2009 was 3.1% per annum.

36


Table of Contents

     Under the term loan, principal payments of $2.8 million are due each calendar quarter through September 30, 2012 and increase to $263.2 million each calendar quarter from December 31, 2012 to maturity at October 5, 2013. The term loan accrues interest, at Cinemark USA, Inc.’s option, at: (A) the base rate equal to the higher of (1) the prime lending rate as set forth on the British Banking Association Telerate page 5 or (2) the federal funds effective rate from time to time plus 0.50%, plus a margin that ranges from 0.75% to 1.00% per annum, or (B) a “eurodollar rate” plus a margin that ranges from 1.75% to 2.00% per annum, in each case as adjusted pursuant to Cinemark USA, Inc.’s corporate credit rating. Borrowings under the revolving credit line bear interest, at Cinemark USA, Inc.’s option, at: (A) a base rate equal to the higher of (1) the prime lending rate as set forth on the British Banking Association Telerate page 5 and (2) the federal funds effective rate from time to time plus 0.50%, plus a margin that ranges from 0.50% to 1.00% per annum, or (B) a “eurodollar rate” plus a margin that ranges from 1.50% to 2.00% per annum, in each case as adjusted pursuant to Cinemark USA, Inc.’s consolidated net senior secured leverage ratio as defined in the credit agreement. Cinemark USA, Inc. is required to pay a commitment fee calculated at the rate of 0.50% per annum on the average daily unused portion of the revolving credit line, payable quarterly in arrears, which rate decreases to 0.375% per annum for any fiscal quarter in which Cinemark USA, Inc.’s consolidated net senior secured leverage ratio on the last day of such fiscal quarter is less than 2.25 to 1.0.
     Cinemark USA, Inc.’s obligations under the senior secured credit facility are guaranteed by Cinemark Holdings, Inc., Cinemark, Inc., and certain of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s domestic subsidiaries and are secured by mortgages on certain fee and leasehold properties and security interests in substantially all of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s and the guarantors’ personal property, including, without limitation, pledges of all of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s capital stock, all of the capital stock of Cinemark, Inc., and certain of Cinemark USA, Inc.’s domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the voting stock of certain of its foreign subsidiaries.
     The senior secured credit facility contains usual and customary negative covenants for transactions of this type, including, but not limited to, restrictions on Cinemark USA, Inc.’s ability, and in certain instances, its subsidiaries’ and Cinemark Holdings, Inc.’s and Cinemark, Inc.’s ability, to consolidate or merge or liquidate, wind up or dissolve; substantially change the nature of its business; sell, transfer or dispose of assets; create or incur indebtedness; create liens; pay dividends, repurchase stock and voluntarily repurchase or redeem the 9 3/4% senior discount notes; and make capital expenditures and investments. The senior secured credit facility also requires Cinemark USA, Inc. to satisfy a consolidated net senior secured leverage ratio covenant as determined in accordance with the senior secured credit facility. The dividend restriction contained in the senior secured credit facility prevents us and any of our subsidiaries from paying a dividend or otherwise distributing cash to its stockholders unless (1) we are not in default, and the distribution would not cause us to be in default, under the senior secured credit facility; and (2) the aggregate amount of certain dividends, distributions, investments, redemptions and capital expenditures made since October 5, 2006, including the distribution currently proposed, is less than the sum of (a) the aggregate amount of cash and cash equivalents received by Cinemark Holdings, Inc. or Cinemark USA, Inc. as common equity since October 5, 2006, (b) Cinemark USA, Inc.’s consolidated EBITDA minus 1.75 times its consolidated interest expense, each as defined in the senior secured credit facility, since October 1, 2006, (c) $150 million and (d) certain other amounts specified in the senior secured credit facility, subject to certain adjustments specified in the senior secured credit facility. The dividend restriction is subject to certain exceptions specified in the senior secured credit facility.
     The senior secured credit facility also includes customary events of default, including, among other things, payment default, covenant default, breach of representation or warranty, bankruptcy, cross-default, material ERISA events, certain types of change of control, material money judgments and failure to maintain subsidiary guarantees. If an event of default occurs, all commitments under the senior secured credit facility may be terminated and all obligations under the senior secured credit facility could be accelerated by the lenders, causing all loans outstanding (including accrued interest and fees payable thereunder) to be declared immediately due and payable.

     Cinemark USA, Inc. 9% Senior Subordinated Notes
     On February 11, 2003, Cinemark USA, Inc. issued $150 million aggregate principal amount of 9% senior subordinated notes due 2013 and on May 7, 2003, Cinemark USA, Inc. issued an additional $210 million aggregate principal amount of 9% senior subordinated notes due 2013, collectively referred to as the 9% senior subordinated notes. Interest is payable on February 1 and August 1 of each year.

37


Table of Contents

     Prior to 2008, Cinemark USA, Inc. repurchased a total of $359.8 million aggregate principal amount of its 9% senior subordinated notes. The transactions were funded by Cinemark USA, Inc. with proceeds from the NCM Transaction and available cash from operations. Cinemark USA, Inc. also executed a supplemental indenture removing substantially all of the restrictive covenants and certain events of default.
     As of September 30, 2009, Cinemark USA, Inc. had outstanding approximately $0.2 million aggregate principal amount of 9% senior subordinated notes. Cinemark USA, Inc. may redeem the remaining 9% senior subordinated notes at its option at any time.
Seasonality
     Our revenues have historically been seasonal, coinciding with the timing of releases of motion pictures by the major distributors. Generally, the most successful motion pictures have been released during the summer, extending from May to mid-August, and during the holiday season, extending from the beginning of November through year-end. The unexpected emergence of a hit film during other periods can alter this seasonality trend. The timing of such film releases can have a significant effect on our results of operations, and the results of one quarter are not necessarily indicative of results for the next quarter or for the same period in the following year.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
     We have exposure to financial market risks, including changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates and other relevant market prices.
Interest Rate Risk
     We are currently party to variable rate debt facilities. An increase or decrease in interest rates would affect interest costs relating to our variable rate debt facilities. At September 30, 2009, there was an aggregate of approximately $787.7 million of variable rate debt outstanding under these facilities, excluding the $300.0 million of our term loan debt that has been hedged with the interest rate swap agreements discussed below. Based on the interest rate levels in effect on this $787.7 million of variable rate debt, a 100 basis point increase in market interest rates would increase our annual interest expense by approximately $7.9 million.
     During 2007 and 2008, we entered into three interest rate swap agreements. The interest rate swap agreements qualify for cash flow hedge accounting. The fair values of the interest rate swaps are recorded on our consolidated balance sheet as a liability with the effective portion of the interest rate swaps’ gains or losses reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and the ineffective portion reported in earnings.
     In March 2007, we entered into two interest rate swap agreements with effective dates of August 13, 2007 and terms of five years each. The interest rate swaps were designated to hedge approximately $500.0 million of our variable rate debt obligations. Under the terms of the interest rate swap agreements, we pay fixed rates of 4.918% and 4.922% on $375.0 million and $125.0 million, respectively, of variable rate debt and receive interest at a variable rate based on the 3-month LIBOR. The 3-month LIBOR rate on each reset date determines the variable portion of the interest rate swaps for the three-month period following the reset date. No premium or discount was incurred upon us entering into the interest rate swaps because the pay and receive rates on the interest rate swaps represented prevailing rates for each counterparty at the time the interest rate swaps were consummated.
     On September 14, 2008, the counterparty to our $375.0 million interest rate swap agreement filed for bankruptcy protection. As a result, we determined that on September 15, 2008, when the counterparty’s credit rating was downgraded, the interest rate swap was no longer highly effective. On October 1, 2008, we terminated this interest rate swap.
     On October 3, 2008, we entered into one interest rate swap agreement with an effective date of November 14, 2008 and a term of four years. The interest rate swap was designated to hedge approximately $100.0 million of our variable rate debt obligations under our senior secured credit facility for three years and $75.0 million of our variable rate debt obligations under our senior secured credit facility for four years. Under the terms of the interest rate swap agreement, we pay a fixed rate of 3.63% on $175.0 million of variable rate debt and receive interest at a variable rate based on the 1-month LIBOR. The 1-month LIBOR rate on each reset date determines the variable portion of the interest rate swap for the one-month period following the reset date. No premium or discount was incurred by us upon entering into the interest rate swap because the pay and receive rates on the interest rate swap represented prevailing rates for the counterparty at the time the interest rate swap was consummated.
     The tables below provide information about our fixed rate and variable rate long-term debt agreements as of September 30, 2009:

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk
     We are also exposed to market risk arising from changes in foreign currency exchange rates as a result of our international operations. Generally, we export from the U.S. certain of the equipment and construction interior finish items and other operating supplies used by our international subsidiaries. Principally all the revenues and operating expenses of our international subsidiaries are transacted in the country’s local currency. Generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. require that our subsidiaries use the currency of the primary economic environment in which they operate as their functional currency. If our subsidiaries operate in a highly inflationary economy, generally accepted accounting principles in the U.S. require that the U.S. dollar be used as the functional currency for the subsidiary. Currency fluctuations result in us reporting exchange gains (losses) or foreign currency translation adjustments relating to our international subsidiaries depending on the inflationary environment of the country in which we operate. Based upon our equity ownership in our international subsidiaries as of September 30, 2009, holding everything else constant, a 10% immediate, simultaneous, unfavorable change in all of the foreign currency exchange rates to which we are exposed would decrease the net book value of our investments in our international subsidiaries by approximately $38 million and would decrease the aggregate net income of our international subsidiaries for the nine months ended September 30, 2009 by approximately $5 million.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
     As of September 30, 2009, we carried out an evaluation required by the Securities Exchange Act, as amended, or the Exchange Act, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that, as of September 30, 2009, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and were effective to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Changes in Internal Controls Over Financial Reporting
     There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Exchange Act Rules 13a-15 that occurred during the quarter ended September 30, 2009 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
