Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment Reporting NOTE 4 – SEGMENT REPORTING

We report information about operating segments in accordance with ASC 280-10 Segment Reporting, which requires financial information to be reported based on the way management organizes segments with a company for making operating decisions and evaluating performance. We have organized our business into two reportable segments, being cinema exhibition and real estate.

Our cinema exhibition segment aggregates all our cinemas, both leased and owned, across the United States, Australia and New Zealand. Each of our cinemas earns revenue through the sale of movie tickets, food and beverage, screen advertising, theatre rentals, merchandise, gift card and loyalty membership, and other ancillary sales. The segment also earns revenue through service fees related to online ticket sales. Expenses are incurred through film rent, wages and salaries, food and beverage costs, occupancy costs, utilities, and other ancillary costs. We further organize this segment by geography, as while all our cinemas are engaged in substantially the same business activities, each geography is subject to its own unique regulatory and business conditions.

Our real estate segment aggregates all our retail, commercial and live theatre real estate assets across Australia, New Zealand, and the United States. Our retail and commercial real estate assets earn revenue through the leasing or licensing of space to third party tenants.

Our live theatre assets in the United States earn revenue through leasing or licensing space to third party production companies, an activity we consider sufficiently similar to our broader real estate base to support inclusion in our real estate segment. Our live theatre operations also earn revenue by providing front of house and box office services and through concession sale of food and beverage. All of our real estate assets incur expenses from property maintenance, utilities, taxes, and other costs of maintaining real estate and in some cases third party property management.

Each of these segments has discrete and separate financial information and for which operating results are evaluated regularly by our President, Chief Executive Officer and Vice Chair of the Board of Directors, the chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) of the Company. The CODM is responsible for the allocation of resources to, and the assessment of the performance of, our operating segments. The CODM determines, among other things:

-the execution, renewal or termination of cinema leases

-the execution, renewal or termination of third-party tenant leases

-significant capital expenditures

-internal resource allocation

-operational budgets.

Segment operating income is a key measure of profit or loss used by the CODM to assess segment performance and allocate resources. Segment operating income includes certain amounts charged by our real estate segment to our cinema exhibition segment where a cinema is a tenant of the real estate segment. These charges are eliminated for condensed consolidated financial statement purposes in the consolidated statement of operations, but are presented gross to the CODM.

The tables below summarize the results of operations for each of our business segments, presenting a reconciliation of segment revenue to operating segment income, and the impact of inter-segment transactions.
