Reading International, Inc. (NASDAQ: RDI) today announced results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2018. Operating revenue and operating income for the full year 2018 represented an all-time record for the Company. And, our fourth quarter revenues and operating income represented all-time records for any fourth quarter. Our full year results were positively impacted by a significant increase in attendance and record theater level cash flows (in functional currency) across all three operating jurisdictions, driven by both a stronger film slate and positive results from the upgrades to our existing portfolio over the last three years and an increase in our Australian/New Zealand screen count.
On the real estate front, our signature US redevelopment project – the historic Tammany Hall at 44 Union Square in Manhattan – is now more than 80% complete and, while no assurances can be given, we are in exclusive negotiation on leases representing approximately 90% of the net rentable area of the project. We anticipate that the project will be ready for the commencement of tenant improvement work in the second quarter of 2019.
Ellen Cotter, Chair, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Our record revenue and operating income in 2018 demonstrate the important progress we are delivering on our strategic plan across our cinema and real estate businesses. We have solid momentum in our global cinema segment. Our initiatives to deliver superior guest experiences helped us outperform the strong industry box office. Our audiences embraced the addition of recliner seating and TITAN screens to select cinemas across our global circuit. Our income was further improved by success with our food and beverage initiatives, innovative pricing and digital strategies. And, we are pleased with our progress on 44 Union Square. We remain focused on building upon our strong performance to enhance long term value for our stockholders.”
The Company reported Basic Earnings per Share (“EPS”) of $0.22 and $0.62 for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2018, respectively, compared with $0.32 and $1.35 for the prior year’s periods. However, in 2018 we did not have certain non-recurring items (specifically, the 2017 recognition of a gain on the sale of our land holdings in Burwood, Australia, and the 2017 receipt of certain insurance proceeds to compensate for earthquake related damages sustained by our Courtenay Central entertainment themed center (“ETC”) in Wellington, New Zealand).
Consolidated revenue for the full year of 2018 increased by 11%, or $29.4 million, to $309.4 million –an all-time record – primarily driven by (i) increased cinema attendance across all jurisdictions, particularly in the U.S., (ii) higher box office and F&B revenue likewise across all jurisdictions, (iii) a stronger film slate from the major studios compared to 2017, (iv) the full year operations from our cinema and dining precinct at Newmarket Village (suburban Brisbane), and (v) the continuous implementation of our capital improvement plan, offset by (a) the one-time, non-recurring $1.8 million settlement payment booked with respect to the STOMP arbitration recognized in 2017 and (b) weaker Australian and New Zealand Dollars.
Consolidated revenue for the fourth quarter of 2018 increased by 4%, or $3.1 million, to $75.0 million - likewise an all-time record for any fourth quarter - primarily driven by (i) increases in attendance, box office and F&B revenue in our U.S., Australian, and New Zealand cinemas compared to the fourth quarter of 2017, (ii) the opening of our new state-of-the-art eight screen Reading Cinema on December 14, 2017 at Newmarket Village and (iii) our investments from 2016-2018 in cinema upgrades. These results were achieved notwithstanding a 6.6% decline in Australian Dollar and a 3.6% decline in the New Zealand Dollar for the quarter ended December 31, 2018, compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2017.

Cinema Exhibition
Fourth Quarter Results:
Cinema segment operating income increased by 13%, or $0.9 million, to $8.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2018 compared to December 31, 2017. This increase came from the U.S. and was driven by strong attendance resulting in higher admission and F&B revenues, primarily resulting from four of our stronger cinemas being opened in 2018 that were closed, or partially closed, in 2017 for renovations.
The top three grossing films for the fourth quarter 2018 were “A Star is Born,” “Bohemian Rhapsody,” and “Venom” representing approximately 25% of Reading’s worldwide admission revenues for the quarter. The top three grossing films in the fourth quarter of 2017 for Reading’s worldwide cinema circuits were “Star Wars: The Last Jedi,” “Thor: Ragnorok,” and “Justice League,” which represented approximately 32% of Reading’s admission revenues for the fourth quarter of 2017.
Full Year Results:
Cinema segment operating income increased by 19%, or $6.4 million, to $39.3 million for the full year ended December 31, 2018 compared to December 31, 2017 primarily driven by increased admissions compared to a weaker film product and cinema closures for significant renovations in 2017.
The top three grossing films for the full year of 2018 were “Avengers: Infinity War,” “Black Panther” and “Incredibles 2” representing approximately 13% of our worldwide admission revenues, compared to the top three grossing films a year ago: “Beauty and the Beast,” “Star Wars: The Last Jedi,” and “Wonder Woman,” which represented approximately 11% of our admission revenues for the same period in 2017.
Real Estate
Fourth Quarter Results:
Real estate segment operating income decreased by 38%, or $0.9 million, to $1.5 million for the fourth quarter of 2018 compared to the fourth quarter of 2017, primarily attributable to (i) a $0.3 million increase in operating expenses primarily related to U.S. segment operations, (ii) an increase of $0.2 million in general and administrative expenses, and (iii) lower operating income from our Live Theatre properties primarily related to the non-recurring 2017 STOMP arbitration award settlement.
Full Year Results:
Real estate segment operating income decreased by 21%, or $1.7 million, to $6.4 million for the full year 2018 compared to the full year 2017, primarily attributable to the offsetting effects of:

Fourth Quarter and Full Year Net Results
Net income attributable to RDI common stockholders for the quarter ended December 31, 2018 decreased by $2.5 million, to $5.0 million and EPS decreased by $0.10 to $0.22 from $0.32 from the prior-year quarter. Net income attributable to RDI common stockholders for the full year decreased by $16.7 million to $14.4 million and EPS decreased by $0.73 to $0.62 from the prior-year period $1.35 due principally to the following one-off real estate transactions during the fourth quarter in 2017 that were absent in 2018: (i) recognition of $9.4 million gain from the sale of our Burwood Property during the second quarter of 2017, (ii) receipt of non-recurring insurance proceeds with respect to losses sustained by us in the Wellington earthquake, and the (iii) 2017 segment income by the receipt of non-recurring STOMP settlement proceeds.
Non-Segment General & Administrative Expenses
G&A expense for the quarter and full year ended December 31, 2018 compared to the same period of the prior year decreased by 24% or $1.4 million, and increased 7%, or $1.3 million, respectively. The fourth quarter decrease in 2018 compared to the fourth quarter 2017, primarily relates to a reduction in legal fees of $1.1 million; this reduction is related to costs incurred in relation to the Cotter litigation that did not go to trial. The $1.3 million increase for the full year is primarily related to an increase in payroll related expenses (attributable to reversal in 2017 for prior year incentive compensation accruals not deemed necessary), offset by a decrease in legal and professional services.
Gain on Insurance Recoveries
During 2017, we recognized a non-recurring $9.2 million gain from the final insurance settlement relating to the earthquake damage on our Courtenay Central parking structure (excluding business interruption insurance recoveries), that contributes to the decrease in consolidated net income.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax benefit decreased by $3.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2018, and income tax expense increased by $40,000 for the full year ended December 31, 2018 compared to the equivalent prior-year period. The differences for the year were primarily due to benefits recognized as the result of the dissolution of a non-operating overseas subsidiary, partially offset by higher taxes on increased pre-tax income and the provisional unfavorable effect of the tax reform bill enacted in December 2018.
OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION
Balance Sheet and Liquidity
Total assets increased by $15.6 million, to $439.0 million at December 31, 2018, compared to $423.4 million at December 31, 2017, primarily driven by increases in our operating and investing properties relating to capital enhancements in our existing cinemas and capital expenditures relating to major real estate projects, primarily (i) the redevelopment of our Union Square property in New York, and (ii) the expansion of our Newmarket property in Brisbane, Australia.
Cash and cash equivalents at December 31, 2018 were $13.1 million, including $7.6 million in the U.S., $3.5 million in Australia, and $2.0 million in New Zealand. We manage our cash, investments, and capital structure so we are able to meet short-term and long-term obligations for our business, while maintaining financial flexibility and liquidity.
As part of our operating cycle, we utilize cash collected from (i) our cinema business when selling tickets and F&B items, and (ii) rental income typically received in advance, to first reduce our long-term borrowings and realize savings on interest charges. We then settle our operating expenses generally with a lag within traditional trade terms. This generates a temporary working capital deficit. We review the maturities of our borrowings and negotiate for renewals and extensions, as necessary for liquidity purposes. We believe the cash flow generated from our operations coupled with the proceeds on property sales and our ability to renew loans when due will provide sufficient liquidity in the upcoming year.
OTHER INFORMATION
Our Stock Repurchase Program that expired on March 2, 2019 has been extended by our Board of Directors through March 2, 2021. $16.2 million remains available under that extended Program. This will allow Reading to repurchase its Class A Stock from time to time in accordance with the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission on the open market, in block trades and in privately negotiated transactions, depending on market conditions and other factors.
On March 14, 2019, our Board of Directors approved the Company’s three-year Strategic Plan to focus across the U.S., Australia and New Zealand on the upgrading of our existing cinemas to add luxury recliner seating, TITAN branded auditoriums and enhanced F&B options, the development in appropriate markets of new cinema opportunities, and the continued development and/or redevelopment of our current real estate assets.
After considering the approval of the Strategic Plan, our Board concluded that the interests of our Company and our stockholders would be best served by the continued pursuit of our Strategic Plan as an independent company and that it had no interest in considering any sale process at this time. Accordingly, we have advised Patton Vision that our Board does not have any present interest in engaging in discussions regarding their unsolicited indication of interest in the sale of our Company.
The table below shows the changes in our working capital position and other relevant information addressing our liquidity as of and for the full year ended December 31, 2018 and the preceding four years:

Certain 2017 and 2016 balances included the restatement impact as a result of a prior period financial statement correction of immaterial errors (see Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements--Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Accounting Changes of our Form 10-K, Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies – Prior Period Financial Statement Correction of Immaterial Errors). (3) Typically our working capital (deficit) is negative as we receive revenue from our cinema business ahead of the time that we have to pay our associated liabilities.

Our overall global operating strategy is to conduct business mostly on a self-funding basis (except for funds used to pay an appropriate share of our U.S. corporate overhead). However, we may decide to move funds between jurisdictions where circumstances merit such action as part of our goal to minimize our cost of capital.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This earnings release presents aggregate segment operating income, and EBITDA, which are important financial measures for the Company, but are not financial measures defined by U.S. GAAP.
These measures should be reviewed in conjunction with the relevant U.S. GAAP financial measures and are not presented as alternative measures of EPS, cash flows or net income as determined in accordance with US GAAP. Aggregate segment operating income and EBITDA, as we have calculated them, may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
Aggregate segment operating income – we evaluate the performance of our business segments based on segment operating income, and management uses aggregate segment operating income as a measure of the performance of operating businesses separate from non-operating factors. We believe that information about aggregate segment operating income assists investors by allowing them to evaluate changes in the operating results of the Company’s business separate from non-operational factors that affect net income, thus providing separate insight into both operations and the other factors that affect reported results. Refer to “Consolidated and Non-Segment Results” for a reconciliation of segment operating income to net income.
EBITDA – we present EBITDA as a supplemental measure of its performance, which is commonly used in our industry. We define EBITDA as net income adjusted for interest expense (net of interest income), income tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense, and an adjustment of interest expense, depreciation, and amortization for discontinued operations, if any. EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure commonly used in our industry and should not be construed as an alternative to net earnings (loss) as an indicator of operating performance or as an alternative to cash flow provided by operating activities as a measure of liquidity (as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP). We have included EBITDA in this Earnings Release as we believe that it provides management and our investors with additional information necessary to properly measure our performance and liquidity, estimate our value and evaluate our ability to service debt.
Adjusted EBITDA – using the principles we consistently apply to determine our EBITDA, we further adjusted the EBITDA for certain items we believe are appropriate adjustable items, described as follows:
We have not made adjustments for any gains relating to property sales, including our realized gain on the Burwood property, in line with our overall business strategy that at any time, we may decide to dispose of any property when we believe that an asset has reached the highest value that we could reasonably achieve without investing substantial additional sums for land use planning, construction and marketing.

Our statements in this press release contain a variety of forward-looking statements as defined by the Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements reflect only our expectations regarding future events and operating performance and necessarily speak only as of the date the information was prepared. No guarantees can be given that our expectation will in fact be realized, in whole or in part. You can recognize these statements by our use of words such as, by way of example, “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” and “anticipate” or other similar terminology.
These forward-looking statements reflect our expectation after having considered a variety of risks and uncertainties. However, they are necessarily the product of internal discussion and do not necessarily completely reflect the views of individual members of our Board of Directors or of our management team. Individual Board members and individual members of our management team may have different views as to the risks and uncertainties involved, and may have different views as to future events or our operating performance.
Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or underlying our forward-looking statements are the following:
The above list is not necessarily exhaustive, as business is by definition unpredictable and risky, and subject to influence by numerous factors outside of our control, such as changes in government regulation or policy, competition, interest rates, supply, technological innovation, changes in consumer taste and fancy, weather, and the extent to which consumers in our markets have the economic wherewithal to spend money on beyond-the-home entertainment.
Given the variety and unpredictability of the factors that will ultimately influence our businesses and our results of operation, no guarantees can be given that any of our forward-looking statements will ultimately prove to be correct.
