Poised for Growth
History has proven that despite advancements in at-home entertainment technologies from the television, to the VCR, to streaming video on-demand, movie theaters continued to bring box office growth year after year. Why? Because people crave out-of-home entertainment experiences. There is nothing like seeing a movie on the big screen in a room designed for an immersive audio-visual experience, with an audience to share in the collective laughs and gasps that make going to the cinema so special. Not to mention, Alamo’s differentiated food and beverage offerings, themed bars, curated pre-show content, movie parties and events that create an all-inclusive night out like no other.
The COVID-19 pandemic brought unprecedented challenges to the movie exhibition business. Alamo Drafthouse Cinema is emerging in a robust position to succeed after restructuring the company’s balance sheet and streamlining operations. Alamo Drafthouse Cinema is the only premium dine-in movie theater available for franchising. As a result, the brand is in a unique position to grow and thrive with new franchise and corporate locations in the development pipeline.
