PLANO, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cinemark Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: CNK), one of the largest and most influential theatrical exhibition companies in the world, today announced it delivered its highest-ever domestic box office performance for the month of May. These record-level results were fueled by broad moviegoer enthusiasm and the company’s strategic programming of a well-balanced slate that included blockbusters, breakout mid-tier content and strong holdovers. The month was marked by exceptional audience turnout with robust demand for varied films, including Michael, The Devil Wears Prada 2, Mortal Kombat II, The Sheep Detectives, Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu, Obsession and Backrooms, which delivered Cinemark’s biggest horror opening day of all time. Complementing this box office success, Cinemark also achieved its highest-ever food and beverage per cap spend for the month of May.

“We are proud to have achieved an all-time high May box office, driven by a compelling slate of releases from our studio partners, strong moviegoer demand for larger-than-life, cinematic experiences and our team’s outstanding execution to maximize the opportunity,” said Sean Gamble, Cinemark President and CEO. “The sustained box office momentum we have seen year-to-date reflects the impact and importance of a healthy, well-balanced release cadence of compelling films. Audiences are showing up for a wide range of content, with particular strength in younger moviegoers, resulting in impressive performances across blockbusters and varied small- to mid-tier titles. We congratulate our studio partners on the success they have realized so far this year, and we commend our entire Cinemark team for consistently delivering exceptional in-theater experiences for our guests.”
