Cineworld (CINE)     

dreamcatcher - 18 Aug 2012 13:13



Cineworld Group plc was founded in 1995 and is now one of the leading cinema groups in Europe. Originally a private company, it re-registered as a public company in May 2006 and listed on the London Stock Exchange in May 2007. Currently, Cineworld Group plc is the only quoted UK cinema business.
In December 2012, the Group acquired the Picturehouse chain of cinemas consisting of 21 cinemas, and in February 2014, the combination with Cinema City completed, creating the second largest cinema business in Europe (by number of screens). The enlarged Group now has 217 sites and a total of 2,000 fully digital screens. Our portfolio includes four out of the ten highest grossing cinemas in the UK and Ireland. We pride ourselves on outstanding picture quality and atmospheric surround sound; the soft, deep-down comfort of our modern seating; the crunch of our popcorn; and, most importantly, the friendliest customer service around. All our sites are digital, and we are one of the market leaders in 3D, a format which will become increasingly important.
In 2014, Cineworld accounted for 82.9 million admissions, had revenues of £619.4 million and an Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) before exceptional items of £126.6 million.

Cineworld's first quarter results strong in a tough market, Numis says

Thu, 14 August 2014


Numis said on Thursday Cineworld's first half results were "strong in a tough market", as profit before tax rose 46% to £25.3m.

Growth was driven by the company's merger with Cinema City in February.

The broker said Cineworld had a strong film release schedule and potential online booking fee windfall.

It also noticed Cineworld Cinema admissions fell 3.4% in the first quarter of the year. "This outperformance partly reflects progress with online bookings and subscriptions," Numis said.

Two new cinemas with six screens each opened this year, and the company expects to open 474 new screens over the next three years.

Numis gave a 'buy' rating to the company and a target price of 420p.

BEN GRIFFITHS: How extortionate prices of refreshments and junk food ads aimed at children sour a family trip to Cineworld

By Ben Griffiths for Daily Mail

Published: 22:05, 15 August 2014 | Updated: 10:15, 16 August 2014

Exhausted parents battling their way through the endurance test of the school summer holidays are a familiar sight at airports and tourist attractions at this time of year.


Many could be forgiven for thinking that a trip with their offspring to the local multiplex might provide a couple of hours of cheap entertainment and a chance to relax.


After all, it’s possible to book tickets online and save money with the likes of London-listed Cineworld – worth an impressive £870million, based on yesterday’s share price of 330.8p.




Inflated prices: During the first half a staggering £47million of Cineworld sales came from the retail operation



For an adult and two children visiting one of its cinemas in south east England, you can expect to pay about £20 for an afternoon screening, which is reasonable value.


In the first half of this year some 25million people passed through Cineworld’s doors in the UK and Ireland alone. Once its operations in Israel and Central and Eastern Europe were included, admissions topped 35.8million.


Yet one need not delve deep into the interim results to discover precisely how much revenue comes from ancillary charges – walk into any Cineworld foyer and it’s immediately obvious how important refreshment kiosks are to the bottom line.

During the first half a staggering £47million of sales came from the retail operation. In other words the nachos, popcorn and buckets of fizzy drinks on sale inside.


Cineworld jealously protects this revenue. Try to overtly take snacks or drinks into one of its venues and you’re likely to have them confiscated or entry refused.


But whether it’s the packet of sweets selling for around three times the price of a supermarket or the giant containers of popcorn at hugely inflated prices, you can see why, in cost-conscious times, some might be tempted to run the gauntlet and sneak in their own refreshments.


Surprisingly, retail spend per person during the 26 weeks to June 26 was £1.79, up from the £1.71 the previous year. This figure is likely to rise with the continued roll-out of Baskin Robbins ice cream concessions across the Cineworld estate.


The company has just opened a Starbucks branch in its Telford cinema with more in the pipeline. The assault from high-calorie snacks doesn’t end once you sit down, however.


On a recent visit I counted almost 40 minutes of adverts targeting minors, featuring junk food, sugar-packed drinks and other ‘treats’ most responsible parents would baulk at their children consuming.


While the only alternative is to rent a DVD or online movie and control what your children are exposed to, a visit to the cinema remains a pleasant outing. It’s just a shame that the big chains are so desperate to suck every last penny from our pockets.

Our system’s recommendation today is to STAY IN CASH. The previous SELL signal was issued on 28/10/2014, 3 days ago, when the stock price was 336.1500. Since then CINE.L has fallen by -0.34%.

Market Outlook

The bears still have the upper hand in the market. A more cautious attitude may be required, but there is no definite sign to urge you into action and to disturb your comfort of being on the sidelines.
