“We are encouraged by new opportunities in the core business line such as greater flexibility in screen usage such as multiple titles across the IMAX platform and split screenings by daypart, reduced screening periods for individual films within a larger number of titles and experimentation with reseating options. Attention to the cost structure is also important. Management has deemphasized its new investments, though is continuing to test virtual reality facilities in a limited number of locations. The paring back of outlays on new business to focus on core opportunities is a plus.
