The second quarter financial results came as Cinemark, the third-largest theater circuit in the U.S. behind AMC Theatres and Regal Entertainment Group, continues to recover at the box office coming out of the pandemic and possibly return to pre-COVID levels of releases. Getting there will be helped by new players like Amazon MGM Studios, as well as independent studios like A24 and Neon, adding more to the overall Hollywood movie pipeline. Gamble reiterated his confidence in the exhibition sector going forward in the face of competition from streaming platforms. "As we look ahead, we remain highly encouraged about the trajectory of our industry and believe Cinemark is exceptionally well-positioned to continue thriving in the years to come," he added.
