I spend most of my time in thinking towards turnaround strategies that if they play out well, what are the odds of them being successful along with risk involved.
Cineline India re-enters film exhibition business with MovieMax brand
The company, which had been present in this business since 1997 under the brand name of Cinemax, recently re-branded itself as MovieMax
Earlier on April 1, PVR had announced the discontinuation of its operations of 23 screens across nine properties after the expiry of their lease with Cineline India.
Cineline had leased out nine properties with 23 screens to PVR for running multiplex operations.
The group marked its foray into the film exhibition business in 2002 through CIL owning & operating one of the reputed multiplex chains – Cinemax.
However, in 2012, the company sold its Cinemax brand as well as operations to PVR Limited (PVR) and changed its business model from film exhibition to owning & leasing of cinema halls to PVR for the latter to run its film exhibition business.
Hence, from 2012 till March 2022, the company generated a major part of its revenues from PVR. However, w.e.f. April 1, 2022, the company marked its re-entry into the film exhibition business by terminating the lease agreements with PVR and developing its own brand – Moviemax.
Hence, since April 2022, Moviemax is operating as a full-fledged multiplex chain.
The Company expects to realise an amount of Rs. 350 crores out of the sale proceeds from Hyatt Centric Hotel, Goa. In case of non-realization of the hive off plan, the Company believes that the hotel will generate healthy business and EBITDA going forward.
