Movie exhibition corporations are struggling to stay afloat despite a general rebound of the movie industry. In 2022, the box office gross in the U.S. and Canada amounted to 7.5 billion U.S. dollars, making it the biggest market on the international scale. Meanwhile, among companies that disclose their financials regularly, the combined global revenue of the top six cinema chains operating in both nations surpassed seven billion dollars that same year. Out of that total, around 3.66 billion dollars came exclusively from movie ticket sales worldwide. And most of those corporations have in North America their largest, if not only, consumer market.
