Reading International Confirms Receipt of Another Unsolicited, Conditional Indication of Interest from Patton Vision

Reading International, Inc. (NASDAQ:RDI) today confirmed that it has received an unsolicited, conditional indication of interest from Patton Vision, LLC, a holding company claiming to represent a consortium of investors, to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Reading Class A common stock for $17.22 per share in cash and Class B common stock for $37.38 per share in cash.

As previously disclosed, the Company received correspondence from Patton Vision in December 2016 in which Patton Vision made an unsolicited, non-binding indication of interest to acquire all outstanding shares of Reading Class A and Class B common stock for $18.50 per share in cash. In addition, the Company received correspondence in May 2016 and September 2016, in which Patton Vision made unsolicited, non-binding indications of interest to acquire all of outstanding shares of Reading Class A and Class B common stock for $17.00 per share.

The Board of Directors of Reading, in consultation with outside advisors, carefully evaluated these prior indications of interest. Following this review, the Board of Directors determined that the Company’s stockholders would be better served by pursuing our independent, stand-alone strategic business plan and communicated this to Patton Vision.

The Reading Board of Directors remains committed to acting in the best interest of all Reading stockholders and will review the revised unsolicited, conditional indication of interest in due course.
