When COVID-19 shut down movie theaters across the globe, production studios initially postponed movie releases.

Similarly, AT&T’s Warner Bros. announced in December 2020 that it would launch every 2021 movie on HBO Max at the same time as theaters. As David Sims, a writer for The Atlantic put it, “audiences will have little incentive to pay more to see these films in theaters.”</p><p><blockquote>因此，迪士尼在2020年中期开始将原本打算在影院上映的电影直接发送到其流媒体服务。同样，美国电话电报公司的华纳兄弟公司在2020年12月宣布，将在HBO Max上与影院同时推出2021年的每部电影。正如《大西洋月刊》的撰稿人大卫·西姆斯所说，“观众几乎没有动力花更多钱去电影院看这些电影。”</blockquote></p><p> However, poor fundamentals and structural headwinds didn’t stop AMC Entertainment’s stock from soaring during the meme-stock frenzy.

AFP VIA GETTY IMAGES\nAMC Entertainment Holdings is not worth owning at any price, barring a drastic change to its business model. Given poor fundamentals and a mountain of debt (221% of market cap), we don’t see how equity investors will have a claim to any future profits, especially given the headwinds facing the movie theater industry.\nMaking matters worse, the company continues to issue new shares, like the recent 43-million share sale, so equity investors claims on any future profits are further diluted.\n\nFundamentals were bad before the COVID-19 pandemic\nMovie theater operator AMC Entertainment had its moment as a meme stock at the same time it was staving off bankruptcy, which illustrates how little the stock’s rise was related to the firm’s fundamentals.\nApart from bankruptcy concerns, AMC’s business operations had been trending in the wrong direction even prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. We calculate that AMC’s core earnings fell from $114 million in 2013 to around $30 million in 2019. The firm burned through $5.2 billion in free cash flow (FCF) from 2014-2019. FCF was -$3.9 billion in 2020.\nGiven the poor fundamentals, AMC had earned our “unattractive” rating even before the meme-stock frenzy took off.\n\nPandemic headwinds persist\nThe shift away from movie theaters to streaming could be permanent. When COVID-19 shut down movie theaters across the globe, production studios initially postponed movie releases. As lockdowns persisted, movie studios started releasing their movies on streaming platforms such as Disney+ and HBO Max, often on the same day as in theaters. Gone was the exclusive window of about three months for theaters to cash in on new releases before they hit streaming platforms.\nNow that consumers got a taste of new movie releases at home, there may be no return to the old model. In a survey conducted in May 2020, 70% of respondents indicated they would rather watch new movies at home, even if theaters were opened.\nAccordingly, Disney began sending movies originally intended for theatrical release directly to its streaming service in mid 2020. Similarly, AT&T’s Warner Bros. announced in December 2020 that it would launch every 2021 movie on HBO Max at the same time as theaters. As David Sims, a writer for The Atlantic put it, “audiences will have little incentive to pay more to see these films in theaters.”\nHowever, poor fundamentals and structural headwinds didn’t stop AMC Entertainment’s stock from soaring during the meme-stock frenzy. To give readers a sense of just how crazy-overvalued the stock was at its peak, we do the math and show how the business would have to perform to justify a price of $20 a share, which it reached in late January.\n‘Crazy’ at $20 explained: It implies market share rises from 13% to 54%\nOur reverse discounted cash flow (DCF) model shows that to justify a $20 share price, AMC Entertainment must:\n\nimmediately improve its profit margin to 14%, which equals the highest in company history (2013), compared with 8% in 2019, and\ngrow revenue by 36% compounded annually for the next decade, which is based on growing at consensus estimates in 2021 (113%) and 2022 (81%), and 24% each year thereafter (well above 9% consensus revenue estimate for 2023)\n\nIn this scenario, AMC Entertainment earns nearly $27 billion in revenue in 2030, which is nearly five times more than its previous record revenue of $5.5 billion in 2019 and around 220% of 2020 global box-office revenue.\nIf we assume global box-office revenue grows at projected rates from 2020 to 2025 and grows 3.7% a year (equal to CAGR from 2009 to 2019) from 2025 through 2030, the scenario above implies AMC Entertainment’s revenue would reach 54% of the global box-office revenue in 2030, up a good bit from about 13% in 2019.\nThis chart compares AMC Entertainment’s historical revenue and share of the global box office to its implied revenue and share of the 2030 projected global box office for this scenario.\n\nStill crazy at $10\nFor perspective on the current price, we run the same analysis to show what the company must do to justify a share price of $10 – which is lower than where it now trades:\n\nimmediately improve its profit margin to 14% (its all-time high in 2013) and\ngrow revenue by 32% compounded annually for the next decade (which is well above projected box office revenue CAGR of 21% through 2025) revenue.\n\nIn this scenario, AMC Entertainment’s revenue would be 39% of the estimated global box office revenue in 2030 (based on same assumptions as above).
