The continued to be repeated bearish argument that box office is going the way of the horse and buggy look set to be finally being put to rest. Over the weekend, AMC sold seven million tickets for Spider-Man: No Way Home, breaking its pandemic-era records for box office performance. For some context, during the entire first quarter of 2021, the company sold less than seven million tickets. Indeed, while bears would be right that this type of extreme seasonality does not bode well for healthy financials, it still stands that an undeniable reality has come about. As long as the blockbusters keep being created, cinemas will continue to sell tickets. The highly acclaimed Matrix Resurrections is also set for release in a few days, crowning what is expected to be AMC's strongest pandemic-era quarter.

The aforementioned seasonality of revenue recognition also heightens the risk of their large debt balance as it increases sensitivity to large periods of zero to negative cash generation from operations.</p>\n<p class=\"t-img-caption\"><img src=\"https://static.tigerbbs.com/b730701841847a501a8075b37ec7946a\" tg-width=\"635\" tg-height=\"433\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\"><span>Data by YCharts</span></p>\n<p>I think the broader macro picture for cinemas looks healthy as pent up demand for moviegoing throughout last year is released on the back of good movies that households actually want to see. 2022 is likely to see the same phenomena play out as movies like<i>John Wick 4</i>,<i>Thor: Love and Thunder</i>,<i>Avatar 2</i>, and&nbsp;<i>Black Panther: Wakanda Forever,</i>amongst others, are set to be released.

This meant the company's free cash flow improved significantly to a loss of $138 million when compared to $385 million in the year-ago quarter.
