NEW YORK, NEW YORK ( August 15, 2025 ) -

Reading International, Inc. (NASDAQ: RDI) (“Reading” or our “Company”), an internationally diversified cinema and real estate company with operations and assets in the United States, Australia, and New Zealand, today announced its results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025.

Key Financial Summary Results – Second Quarter 2025

Total Revenues of $60.4 million increased by 29%, from $46.8 million in Q2 2024.

At $2.9 million, our Operating Income, which improved by 138% compared to a loss of $7.7 million in Q2 2024, represented the highest Operating Income achieved since Q2 2019 reflecting improved performance in both our global Cinema and Real Estate divisions.

A positive EBITDA of $6.3 million improved by 276% compared to an EBITDA loss of $3.6 million for Q2 2024. This improvement in EBITDA reflects improved operational performances and a gain of $1.8 million on the sale of our Cannon Park Property in Australia.

Basic loss per share of $0.12 improved by 79% compared to a basic loss per share of $0.57 in Q2 2024.

Net loss attributable to Reading of $2.7 million improved by 79% compared to a loss of $12.8 million in Q2 2024.

Key Financial Summary Results – Six Months of 2025

Total Revenues of $100.5 million increased by 9% compared to $91.9 million for the first six months of 2024.

Operating Loss of $4.0 million improved by 74% compared to a loss of $15.2 million for the same period in 2024.

A positive EBITDA of $9.2 million improved by 222% compared to an EBITDA loss of $7.5 million for the same period in 2024.

Basic loss per share of $0.33 improved by 73% compared to a basic loss per share of $1.16 for the first six months of 2024.

Net loss attributable to Reading of $7.4 million improved by 71% compared to a loss of $26.0 million for the first six months of 2024.

Both the Q2 2025 Australian and New Zealand dollar average exchange rates weakened against the U.S. dollar by 2.7% and 1.9%, respectively, compared to Q2 2024 and the average six months 2025 exchange rates weakened against the U.S. dollar by 3.6% and 4.6%, respectively, compared to the same period of 2024. With 47% of our Total Revenues being generated by our Australian and New Zealand businesses, the weakness in the currency impacts our U.S. reported operating results.

President and Chief Executive Officer, Ellen Cotter said, “Our improved performance this quarter underscores our continued confidence in long term future of our Company. During the second quarter of 2025, we joined the cinema industry in celebrating the record box office success of two Warner Bros movies, ‘A Minecraft Movie’ and ‘Sinners,’ and Disney’s ‘Lilo & Stitch.’ Following the second quarter’s cinema momentum, we also enjoyed an exciting July 2025 thanks to movies like ‘Jurassic World: Rebirth,’ ‘Superman,’ and ‘The Fantastic Four: First Steps.’ The success of these engaging, high-quality and well-marketed movies reinforce our confidence in the appeal of the theatrical experience. For the remainder of 2025, we look forward to a robust line-up, including ‘TRON: Ares,’ ‘Wicked: For Good,’ ‘Zootopia 2’ and ‘Avatar: Fire and Ash.’”

Ms. Cotter added, “Our global Real Estate division also delivered strong results in the second quarter and year-to-date 2025 with our Operating Income increasing 56% quarter-over-quarter and 67% year-over-year. During the second quarter of 2025, we closed on the sale of our real property assets in Cannon Park, Australia for AU$32.0 million and used the funds to decrease our overall debt position.”

Ms. Cotter concluded, “We greatly appreciated the efforts of our teams across all three countries over the first half of 2025 and their execution of our various strategic priorities. Our cinema teams kept a laser focus on operating efficiently but still handling the increased revenues. And, our property teams continued to maintain their focus on the real estate operations, while also completing the monetization of two major property assets in Australia and New Zealand proceeds of which were used to reduce our Company’s gross debt by $32.1 million.”

Cinema Business

Driven by stellar box office results from movies such as “A Minecraft Movie,” “Sinners,” “Lilo & Stitch” and “Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning,” our Q2 2025 global cinema: (i) revenue increased 32% to $56.8 million and (ii) operating income increased by 218% to $5.5 million from an operating loss of $4.6 million in Q2 2024. Q2 2025 milestones include:

• Our average ticket price (“ATP”) in both Australia and New Zealand cinema divisions achieved their highest quarter ever.
• Our ATP in the U.S. achieved its highest second quarter ever and that takes into account our successful discount Tuesday programs: Mahalo Tuesdays in Hawaii and Half Priced Tuesdays in our other U.S. markets.
• With respect to our food and beverage (“F&B”) programs for Q2 2025: (i) at A$8.26, our F&B sales per person (“SPP”), represented the highest second quarter ever for our Australian Cinemas, (ii) at NZ$7.14, our New Zealand cinema division’s F&B SPP set a record for the highest quarter ever, and (iii) at $9.13, our U.S. cinema F&B SPP also ranked the highest quarter ever for periods when our U.S. circuit was fully operating (i.e. excluding pandemic closure periods) and is the highest among our publicly traded competitors that disclose their F&B sales per person (SPP).
• Our Cash Flow Pre-Occupancy per capita ranked the highest in each cinema division reflecting a laser focus on cost management.

Continuing our efforts to streamline our cinema operations, we closed an additional underperforming U.S. cinema in April 2025. Currently, we operate 469 screens in 58 theatres, in the U.S., Australia and New Zealand.

Through the quarter, we continued to work with our cinema landlords to reduce our occupancy costs to reflect that the business, while improving, has not returned to pre-pandemic revenue levels and that we continue to operate in an inflationary environment with increased labor and other operating costs.

Real Estate Business

With respect to our global Real Estate business: (i) revenue decreased by $0.4 million to $4.7 million, compared to Q2 2024 and (ii) operating income of $1.5 million increased by 56% from $0.9 million in Q2 2024 and represented the best second quarter result since Q2 2018.

Our Q2 2025 U.S. Real Estate Revenues of $1.7 million represented a 15% increase from Q2 2024 due to the improved performance of our Live Theatre assets in NYC.

Within the last 18 months we completed the following property monetizations: (i) our Culver City building in Q1 2024 for $10.0 million, (ii) our Wellington (New Zealand) property assets in Q1 2025 for NZ$38.0 million, and (iii) on May 21, 2025, we sold our Cannon Park ETC in Townsville, Queensland, Australia, which consisted of our Cannon Park City Center and Cannon Park Discount Center properties (approximately 9.4-acres) for AU$32.0 million. We retained the right to operate the cinemas at our Wellington and Cannon Park locations under long-term leases.

As of June 30, 2025, our combined Australian and New Zealand property portfolio has 59 third-party tenants, with a portfolio occupancy rate of 99% and total leased gross lettable area of just under 157,000 SF. During Q2 2025, we executed 15 third party lease transactions, which included new tenants and renewals of existing tenants. At Newmarket Village in Brisbane, we extended a long-term lease with a third-party anchor tenant.

Our cash and cash equivalents were $9.1 million.
