| Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On June 23, 2026, AMC Entertainment Holdings, Inc. (the “Company” or “AMC”) entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain institutional investors (the “Investors”) for the sale by the Company of 95,250,000 shares (the “Shares”) of its Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), in a registered direct offering (the “Offering”), at a purchase price of $2.10 per share. The Offering is expected to close on June 24, 2026 (the “Closing Date”), subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
In connection with the Offering, the Company entered into a placement agency agreement (the “Placement Agency Agreement”) on June 23, 2026 with Roth Capital Partners, LLC (the “Placement Agent”), as the exclusive placement agent in connection with the Offering. As compensation to the Placement Agent, the Company will pay the Placement Agent a cash fee of 5.5% of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in the Offering and will reimburse certain expenses.
The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and agreements of the Company and the purchasers and customary indemnification rights and obligations of the parties. The Company has agreed not to issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares of Common Stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of Common Stock or file any registration statement or prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto for a period of 45 days following the Closing Date, subject to certain exceptions.
The shares of Common Stock described above were offered pursuant to the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-293291), filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on February 9, 2026 (the “Registration Statement”), including a prospectus included in the Registration Statement, and a prospectus supplement, dated June 23, 2026.
The Company will receive net proceeds of approximately $189 million from the Offering, after deducting the estimated Placement Agent fees and before deducting estimated offering expenses. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from this Offering to redeem all of its $125,500,000 aggregate principal amount of 6.125% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2027, pay related fees, costs, premiums and expenses associated therewith and for general corporate purposes, which may include the repayment of other debt, the strengthening of the Company’s cash reserves and investments to enhance the moviegoing experience at the Company’s theatres.
The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Purchase Agreement and the Placement Agency Agreement were made solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreements and may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties. Accordingly, such agreements are incorporated herein by reference only to provide investors with information regarding the terms of such agreements, and not to provide investors with any other factual information regarding the Company or its business, and should be read in conjunction with the disclosures in the Company’s periodic reports and other filings with the Commission.
