(1)The exhibitor services agreement contract liability relates to National CineMedia, LLC (“NCM”) common units that were previously received under the exhibitor services agreement dated February 13, 2007 and amended and restated as of December 13, 2013. On April 17, 2025, NCM entered into the Second Amended and Restated Exhibitor Services Agreement (the “Amended ESA”) with the Company. The term of the Amended ESA has been extended by five years through February 13, 2042. The Company treated the Amended ESA as a contract modification pursuant to ASC 606 – Revenue from Contracts with Customers. Accordingly, the Company has allocated the additional consideration received from the contract modification to the exhibitor services agreement contract liability and updated the discount rate used to account for the significant financing component to 16.12%. Prior to the contract modification, the weighted average discount rate used to account for the significant financing component was approximately 7.5%. The contract liability will be reclassified to other theatre revenue over the new term of the Amended ESA as the remaining performance obligations are satisfied. The non-cash revenue resulting from the satisfaction of the performance obligations is adjusted for in the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows under the changes in accrued expenses and other liabilities caption.
