RE:Does anybody do any math?Before you post something like this where you admit you don't know, wouldn't it be wiser to actually LOOK for the data first?
I'd agree that signing two cinemas in the capital of Buru-Buru wouldn't be significant. However, my "local" cinema has 7 DBox screenings today (Thursday). The one theater I checked has 40 DBox seats. At 50% capacity, that's 140 DBox seats. At $2.66 per seat, that's $372 per day, or $135k per year. For one cinema. If you get a litle more optomistic and assume 75% capacity, it's $203k.
As of Dec 31, they showed 688 installed screens. Take once DBox showing per screen per day, assume 50% of capacity (20 seats), at $2.66 per seat. That's over $13 million in revenue.
But we don't have to wax theoretical. They reported $10m in revenue for Q3/17, and $26m for the first three quarters of 2017.
How's that math? Amazing that it took me all of 5 minutes to do.

How will that translate into the tens of millions of dollars needed to bring this company in black? The fact that they do 3-400$ for every show in each theater where they planted seats is a long way from recuperating the initial investment and all the expenses. I do not have any real data to do a thorough calculation but news like "signed another 2 cinemas in the capital of Buru-Buru" or "no more seats available at my neighborhood cinema" cannot be making a substantial difference.
