As of September 30, 2021, all of the Company's domestic and international theatres were opened for the first time since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Cinemark Holdings, Inc.’s total revenues for the three months ended September 30, 2021 were $434.8 million compared to $35.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020. As a reminder, the Company’s theatres were closed for a majority of the three months ended September 30, 2020. For the three months ended September 30, 2021, admissions revenues were $225.5 million and concession revenues were $164.2 million, driven by attendance of 30.7 million patrons.

“As an industry, and as a company, we continue to make significant progress recovering from the effects of the pandemic,” stated Mark Zoradi, Cinemark’s CEO. “We are highly encouraged by sustained positive trends in escalating consumer demand for theatrical moviegoing and growing momentum at the box office. This favorable progress was clearly demonstrated in our 61% quarter-over-quarter growth in worldwide attendance, which flowed through to our bottom line as our third quarter net loss reduced $64.7 million dollars from the second quarter and Adjusted EBITDA improved to $44.3 million dollars. This was the first quarter since the pandemic began that we generated positive Adjusted EBITDA in every month of a quarter, tangibly underscoring our resurgence.”
Mr. Zoradi continued, “We expect a continued ramp-up in box office performance over the course of the coming months, and October already delivered the best monthly box office results since the onset of COVID-19. As the pandemic further subsides, we remain confident in the future of theatrical moviegoing based on the unparalleled cinematic experience it provides coupled with a robust content lineup in the fourth quarter and beyond that features highly anticipated films with something for everyone.”
Cinemark Holdings, Inc.’s total revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 increased 43.5% to $843.8 million compared to $588.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, admissions revenues increased 41.5% to $435.1 million and concession revenues increased 57.1% to $313.5 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, attendance was 57.5 million patrons, average ticket price increased 17.5% to $7.57 and concession revenues per patron increased 30.4% to $5.45.
Net loss attributable to Cinemark Holdings, Inc. for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $428.5 million compared to $377.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 was $(59.5) million compared to $(179.4) million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
