AMC Entertainment Holdings, Inc. is a theatrical exhibition company that owns, operates, or holds interests in movie theatres across the United States and international markets. Founded in 1920 and headquartered in Leawood, Kansas, the company trades on the NYSE under the ticker AMC and is classified within the Communication Services sector under the Movies & Entertainment sub-industry.
