Cineplex (TSE:CGX) said its first-quarter 2026 results improved meaningfully from the prior year, helped by stronger movie attendance, higher premium-format revenue and record first-quarter per-patron spending.
President and Chief Executive Officer Ellis Jacob said the quarter “built on the momentum” across the theatrical industry, with attendance and box office rising year-over-year. He said Cineplex delivered its highest first-quarter revenue since 2019 and recorded first-quarter highs in several operating metrics.
