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.
The theatrical exhibition business model centers on operating physical cinema locations that generate revenue primarily through ticket sales, concessions, and advertising. The industry has historically faced structural challenges from streaming services and shifting consumer habits, while box office performance tends to be highly dependent on major studio release schedules and seasonal attendance patterns.
