The worldwide average ticket price was $7.30, and concession revenue per patron was $5.65.

Cinemark held $788.6 million in cash and equivalents as of March 31, 2024.

"2024 North American industry box office has kicked off better than expected, declining only modestly versus 2023 despite last year's strike-induced headwinds," stated Sean Gamble, Cinemark's President and CEO.

Cinema operators are doling out deals and discounts to entice moviegoers as threats loom from streaming content.

Cinemark Holdings stock gained close to 4% in the last 12 months. Investors can gain exposure to the stock via Invesco S&P SmallCap Utilities & Communication Services ETF (NASDAQ:PSCU) and Invesco Leisure And Entertainment ETF (NYSE:PEJ).
