Represents an all-time quarterly record for Cineplex. |
"We had a record breaking second quarter with new all-time records set for total revenue, up 6.8% to $345.5 million, and adjusted EBITDA up 9.9% to $65.3 million," said Ellis Jacob, President and CEO, Cineplex Entertainment.
"All revenue sources increased in the second quarter. Media revenue increased 13.0% to $35.0 million, primarily due to robust show time advertising sales. Food service revenue continued to be strong, increasing 10.6% to $108.4 million. New all-time quarterly records were also established for BPP of $9.45 and CPP of $5.50. We also increased our monthly dividend by 4% to $0.13 per share or $1.56 on an annual basis," said Jacob.
"Overall, it was a successful quarter. Our top three films -- The Avengers: Age of Ultron, Jurassic World and Furious 7 -- represented 43.5% of box office compared to the same period last year where the top three films represented 29.2%. These three films rank in the top 10 grossing films of all-time. Looking ahead, I believe the film slate for the second half of 2015 looks strong and I am excited about the strategic opportunities ahead which will continue to diversify our business and help us achieve meaningful growth."

Box office revenues increased $4.8 million, or 2.6%, to $186.2 million during the second quarter of 2015, compared to $181.4 million recorded in the same period in 2014. The increase was due to the success of the top three films released in the period which accounted for 43.5% of Cineplex box office in the period. These three films all outperformed the top film from the prior year period and contributed to the 2.0% increase in attendance in the period.
BPP for the three months ended June 30, 2015 was $9.45, a $0.05 increase from the prior year period and an all-time quarterly record for Cineplex. This increase was mainly due to box office revenues from premium product accounting for 46.3% of box office revenues in the current period, up from 41.8% in the prior year period.

Box office revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2015 were $342.2 million, an increase of $4.6 million or 1.4% over the prior year due to the 1.8% increase in attendance more than offsetting the impact of the lower BPP in the current year period compared to the 2014 period. The attendance and box office revenues increases in the period were due to the strong performance of the film product in the second quarter of 2015, with the top three films in the first half of 2015 all outperforming the top film from the prior year period. These increases were partially offset by the impact of extreme weather conditions in Atlantic Canada in the first quarter negatively impacting theatre attendance in the Atlantic Provinces in 2015.
Cineplex's BPP for the period decreased $0.04, or 0.4%, from $9.23 in the prior year period to $9.19 in the current period. This decrease was primarily due to the decrease in revenues from 3D product as only three of the top five films in the 2015 period were screened in 3D compared to all of the top five in 3D in the prior year period. Premium priced offerings accounted for 36.7% of Cineplex's box office revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2015, compared to 40.1% in the prior year period.

Second Quarter
Food service revenues are comprised primarily of concession revenues, which includes food sales at theatre locations as well as non-theatre locations. Food service revenues increased $10.4 million, or 10.6% as compared to the prior year period primarily due to the 8.3% CPP increase and the 2.0% increase in attendance. CPP of $5.50 is an all-time quarterly record for Cineplex. Expanded offerings outside of core food service products, including offerings at Cineplex's VIP Cinemas, have resulted in higher average transaction values, resulting in the record CPP in the period.
Year to Date
Food service revenues increased $14.0 million, or 7.6% as compared to the prior year, due to the 5.7% increase in CPP and the 1.8% increase in attendance. The CPP of $5.35 in the current period is the highest CPP Cineplex has reported through the first six months of a year.
While the 10% SCENE discount and SCENE points issued on food service combo purchases reduce individual transaction values which impacts CPP, Cineplex believes that this program drives incremental visits and food service purchases, resulting in higher overall food service revenues.

Second Quarter
Total media revenues increased 13.0% to $35.0 million in the second quarter of 2015 compared to the prior year period, and represents a second quarter media revenues record for Cineplex. This increase was largely due to higher Cineplex Media revenues, up $3.3 million as compared to the prior year period due primarily to higher showtime revenues resulting from increases in automotive and telecommunications sector advertising.
Cineplex Digital Media revenues increased $0.7 million due to higher advertising revenues including the TimsTV and Oxford shopping mall networks. The increases due to higher advertising revenues were partially offset by lower project revenues as compared to the prior year period due to the timing of project installations in 2015 as compared to 2014. Project revenues tend to fluctuate with the timing of clients' installation requirements, whereas other digital media revenue streams are more consistent period to period.
Year to Date
Total media revenues increased $8.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2015 compared to the prior year period. The increase was due to the $6.9 million increase in Cineplex Media revenues due primarily to higher showtime revenues and the $1.8 million increase in Cineplex Digital Media revenues, primarily due to higher digital advertising revenues including advertising on the TimsTV and Oxford shopping mall networks.

Second Quarter
Other revenues include gaming revenues as well as revenues from the Cineplex Store, promotional activities, screenings, private parties, corporate events, breakage on gift card and voucher sales, revenues from in-theatre guest service initiatives and management fees. Games revenues do not include Cineplex's 50% share of results of CSI, which are included in "Share of income of joint ventures".
Other revenues increased 21.9% to $15.9 million in the second quarter of 2015 compared to the prior year period. This increase was primarily due to additional revenues arising from enhanced guest service initiatives and increased SCENE partner revenues. Games revenues increased due to the conversion of select gaming rooms to XSCAPE Entertainment Centres, the addition of new XSCAPE locations since the prior year period, and the impact of a one-time adjustment ($0.4 million).
Year to Date
For the year to date period, other revenues have increased 17.5% compared to the prior year period primarily due to additional revenues arising from enhanced guest service initiatives and increased SCENE partner revenues. The games revenues increase is due to the conversion of select gaming rooms to XSCAPE Entertainment Centres as well as the addition of new XSCAPE locations since the prior year period.

Second Quarter
Film cost varies primarily with box office revenues, and can vary from quarter to quarter based on the relative strength of the titles exhibited during the period. The increase in film cost percentage in the current period is as a result of the concentration of box office revenues from a few titles, with the top three films in the current period, which rank in the top ten grossing films of all-time, accounting for 43.5% of box office revenues (2014 - top three represented 29.2%). The period over period film cost percentage increase is impacted by the prior year being the lowest second quarter film cost percentage reported by Cineplex.
Year to Date
The year to date increase in film cost expense was due to the 1.3% increase in the film cost percentage and the 1.8% increase in attendance in the period.
Cost of food service

Second Quarter
Cost of food service varies primarily with theatre attendance as well as the quantity and mix of offerings sold. The increase in the cost of food service as compared to the prior year period was due to the higher food service revenues and the 0.5% increase in the concession cost percentage during the period, with the higher percentage due in part to expanded offerings including those at VIP theatres. The concession margin per patron increased from $3.98 in the second quarter of 2014 to $4.29 in the same period in 2015, reflecting the impact of the higher CPP during the period.
Year to Date
The increase in the cost of food service as compared to the prior year period was due to the higher food service revenues and the 0.2% increase in the concession cost percentage during the period. The concession margin per patron increased from $3.97 in the prior year period to $4.18 in the current period, reflecting the impact of the higher CPP in the current period.
Despite the 10% discount offered to SCENE members and SCENE points offered on select offerings, which contributes to a higher concession cost percentage, Cineplex believes the SCENE program drives incremental attendance and purchase incidence which increases food service revenues and CPP.

The quarterly increase in depreciation of property, equipment and leaseholds of $2.5 million and year to date increase of $4.7 million is primarily due to the impact of equipment and leasehold improvements relating to assets acquired through acquisitions, new theatre construction and other growth projects. The increase in amortization of intangible assets in the quarter and year to date periods is due to the amortization of the intangible assets acquired in the prior year periods and subsequent to those periods.

During the second quarter of 2015, Cineplex recorded a loss of $1.0 million on the disposal of assets that were sold or otherwise disposed (2014 - $2.0 million). For the six months ended June 30, 2015, disposal of assets resulted in a loss of $1.4 million on the disposal of assets that were sold or otherwise disposed of (2014 - $1.9 million, including a $0.6 million gain on the sale of land that was previously a drive-in theatre which is offset by losses on certain assets that were sold or otherwise disposed of).

Second Quarter
Theatre occupancy expenses increased $0.2 million during the second quarter of 2015 compared to the prior year period. This increase was primarily due to the impact of new and acquired theatres net of disposed theatres ($0.5 million) and the impact of one-time credits ($0.2 million) partially offset by lower same store rent expenses ($0.4 million) due to the impact of non-cash occupancy amounts.
Year to Date
The increase in theatre occupancy expenses of $0.3 million for the 2015 period compared to the prior year was due to the impact of new and acquired theatres net of disposed theatres and higher real estate taxes included in Other, partially offset by the impact of one-time credits.

The major components of the increase were the net impact of new and acquired theatres net of disposed theatres ($1.9 million), higher marketing expenses ($1.3 million) due to the timing of campaigns in the 2015 period compared to 2014, higher same store payroll due to higher business volumes and minimum wage increases in certain provinces ($1.0 million) and a $1.6 million increase in the Other category, discussed below.
The major movements in the Other category include the following:
- Higher SCENE costs in the current period due to the growing membership base and support for the SportChek partnership launched in the fourth quarter of 2014 ($0.9 million).
- Higher same store utility costs due in part to higher electricity rates and consumption, partially offset by lower fuel costs ($0.5 million).
- Higher other costs ($0.2 million) including ongoing theatre maintenance.
Year to Date
For the six months ended June 30, 2015, other operating expenses increased $2.4 million or 1.4% compared to the prior year period. The major components of this increase were the net impact of new and acquired theatres net of disposed theatres ($2.3 million) and higher media costs of $0.8 million and higher same store payroll costs of $0.8 million both due to higher business volumes. These increases were partially offset by lower spending on new business initiatives due in part to one-time digital platform development costs incurred in the prior year period ($1.6 million).
The $0.2 million increase in the Other category was primarily due to a $1.4 million increase in SCENE costs due to the growing membership base and support for the SportChek partnership and a $0.2 million increase in same store utility costs. These increases were partially offset by lower 3D royalty expenses due to lower 3D attendance in the 2015 period compared to the prior year ($1.0 million) and lower ongoing theatre maintenance costs due to the timing of repairs in the 2015 and 2014 periods.

Second Quarter
G&A expenses increased $0.4 million during the second quarter of 2015 compared to the prior year period due to higher LTIP expenses. This increase was due to a larger increase in the average closing Share price for the 90 days prior to June 30, 2015 as compared to the prior year period, which is one of the variables used in calculating LTIP expense.
Year to Date
G&A expenses for the year to date period increased $4.1 million compared to the prior year period, due to a $3.8 million increase in LTIP expense as a result of the larger increase in the average closing Share price for the 90 days prior to June 30, 2015 as compared to the prior year period.

Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2015 increased $5.9 million, or 9.9%, as compared to the prior year period. The increase as compared to the prior year period was primarily due to the higher attendance and record BPP and CPP amounts resulting in higher exhibition revenues, and the higher contribution from Cineplex Media and Cineplex Digital Media. Adjusted EBITDA margin, calculated as adjusted EBITDA divided by total revenues, was 18.9% in the current period, up from 18.4% in the prior year period.
Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2015 increased $15.2 million, or 16.9%, as compared to the prior year period, due to the higher contribution from Cineplex Media and Cineplex Digital Media, the impact of the higher CPP as well as lower operating costs compared to the prior year period. Adjusted EBITDA margin for the period was 16.6%, an increase of 1.6% from 15.0% in the prior year period.
ADJUSTED FREE CASH FLOW
For the second quarter of 2015, adjusted free cash flow per common share of Cineplex was $0.65 as compared to $0.77 in the prior year period. The declared dividends per common share of Cineplex were $0.39 in the second quarter of 2015 and $0.37 in the prior year period. During the twelve months ended June 30, 2015, Cineplex generated adjusted free cash flow per Share of $2.33, compared to $2.40 per Share in the year ended June 30, 2014. Cineplex declared dividends per Share of $1.51 and $1.45, respectively, in each year. The payout ratios for these periods were approximately 64.8% and 60.3%, respectively. Adjusted free cash flow per common share and the payout ratios for the 2014 period was positively impacted by Cineplex's use of loss carryforwards acquired through Cineplex's acquisition of AMC Ventures Inc. in 2012, resulting in Cineplex's cash income taxes in 2014 being substantially reduced. Based on estimated 2014 taxable income, none of the acquired losses are available to be used to reduce taxable income in 2015.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
EBITDA and Adjusted Free Cash Flow
EBITDA and adjusted free cash flow are not measures recognized by GAAP and do not have standardized meanings in accordance with such principles. Therefore, EBITDA and adjusted free cash flow may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Management uses adjusted EBITDA and adjusted free cash flow to evaluate performance primarily because of the significant effect certain unusual or non-recurring charges and other items have on EBITDA from period to period.
EBITDA is calculated by adding back to net income, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense, and interest expense net of interest income. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated by adjusting EBITDA for losses on disposal of assets, the share of income of CDCP and depreciation, amortization, interest and taxes of Cineplex's other joint ventures. Adjusted EBITDA margin is calculated by dividing adjusted EBITDA by total revenues.
Adjusted free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure generally used by Canadian corporations, as an indicator of financial performance and it should not be seen as a measure of liquidity or a substitute for comparable metrics prepared in accordance with GAAP.
For a detailed reconciliation of net income to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA and from cash provided by operating activities to adjusted free cash flow, please refer to Cineplex's management's discussion and analysis filed on www.sedar.com.
Per Patron Revenue Metrics
Cineplex reviews per patron metrics as they relate to box office revenue and concession revenue such as BPP, CPP, BPP excluding premium priced product, and concession margin per patron, as these are key measures used by investors to value and assess Cineplex's performance, and are widely used in the theatre exhibition industry. Management of Cineplex defines these metrics as follows:
Attendance: Attendance is calculated as the total number of paying patrons that frequent Cineplex's theatres during the period.
BPP: Calculated as total box office revenues divided by total paid attendance for the period.
BPP excluding premium priced product: Calculated as total box office revenues for the period, less box office revenues from 3D, UltraAVX, VIP and IMAX product; divided by total paid attendance for the period, less paid attendance for 3D, UltraAVX, VIP and IMAX product.
CPP: Calculated as total food service revenues divided by total paid attendance for the period.
Premium priced product: Defined as 3D, UltraAVX, IMAX and VIP film product.
Concession margin per patron: Calculated as total food service revenues less total cost of food service, divided by attendance for the period.
Same Store Analysis
Cineplex reviews and reports same store metrics relating to box office revenues, concession revenues, rent expense and payroll expense, as these measures are widely used in the theatre exhibition industry as well as other retail industries. Same store metrics are calculated by removing the results for all theatres that have been opened, acquired, closed or otherwise disposed of subsequent to the start of the prior year comparative period. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2015, the impact of the six locations that have been opened or acquired and the three locations that have been closed have been excluded, resulting in 156 theatres being included in the same store metrics.
Cost of sales percentages
Cineplex reviews and reports cost of sales percentages for its two largest revenue sources, box office revenues and concession revenues as these measures are widely used in the theatre exhibition industry. These measures are reported as film cost percentage and concession cost percentage, respectively, and are calculated as follows:
Film cost percentage: Calculated as total film cost expense divided by total box office revenues for the period.
Concession cost percentage: Calculated as total food service costs divided by total food service revenues for the period.
