In today’s world, businesses are becoming more aware that making money is only one criterion. We believe our work must be important to our clients and stakeholders, and to society at large, if we want to thrive over the long term. The Canadian results from our latest Global CEO Survey confirmed that we are on the right path. More than 90 per cent of Canadian CEOs think business success in the 21st century means looking beyond financial profit, and that living your values and purpose must be at the core of your strategy. Over the past few months, I’ve talked with a number of executives, and many of us are asking the same question: How do we build a broader, balanced and sustainable culture that resonates with our customers, investors, employees and society? It starts with a diverse workforce and an inclusive environment, where differences are celebrated and people are engaged and feel Losing the Signal wins the 2016 National empowered to make an impact.

  • View Annual Report
    2019 ANNUAL REPORT LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS Dear fellow shareholders, As a result of growth across many of our businesses, Cineplex reported strong results for 2019. Our diversified businesses continued to build scale and show more meaningful returns, resulting in total revenue of $1.7 billion, up 3.3%, year over year, as we achieved all-time annual records for media, amusement and food service revenue. Despite the strong results, adjusted EBITDAaL and net income were negatively impacted by transaction costs related to the proposed Cineworld Group PLC (“Cineworld”) acquisition, which was announced in December, as well as the adoption of IFRS 16. Shifting our focus to key accomplishments, there was much to celebrate in 2019. We opened two new theatres, added a new VIP Cinemas to an existing theatre, and added five new 4DX auditoriums and five new ScreenX auditoriums to our circuit. We also introduced Junxion – our new ‘Cinema of the Future’ concept that combines cinema with location based entertainment to create the perfect entertainment destination for any occasion. In partnership with Tangerine Bank, Cineplex Media announced Tangerine Tuesdays – a continuation of our popular Tuesday ticket program, where guests enjoy discounted movie admissions and free popcorn upgrades for Tangerine customers. Cineplex Digital Media saw continued growth with existing clients and completed the deployment of a digital network at approximately 630 AMC Theatres locations across the United States. During the year, we opened two new locations of The Rec Room in Mississauga, Ontario and St. John’s, Newfoundland, as well as the first two reinvented Playdium concepts in Brampton and Whitby, Ontario.
