Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
For the Six Months Ended June 30, 2011
Note 1 – Basis of Presentation
Reading International, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“RDI” and collectively with our consolidated subsidiaries and corporate predecessors, the “Company,” “Reading” and “we,” “us,” or “our”), was founded in 1983 as a Delaware corporation and reincorporated in 1999 in Nevada. Our businesses consist primarily of:
·
|
the development, ownership and operation of multiplex cinemas in the United States, Australia, and New Zealand; and
|
·
|
the development, ownership, and operation of retail and commercial real estate in Australia, New Zealand, and the United States.
|
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim reporting and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim reporting. As such, certain information and disclosures typically required by US GAAP for complete financial statements have been condensed or omitted. The financial information presented in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2011 (the “June Report”) should be read in conjunction with our 2010 Annual Report which contains the latest audited financial statements and related notes. The periods presented in this document are the three (“2011 Quarter”) and six (“2011 Six Months”) months ended June 30, 2011 and the three (“2010 Quarter”) and six (“2010 Six Months”) months ended June 30, 2010.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary to present fairly in all material respects our financial position, results of our operations, and cash flows as of and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 have been made. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the entire year.
Marketable Securities
We had investments in marketable securities of $3.1 million and $3.0 million at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. We account for these investments as available for sale investments. We assess our investment in marketable securities for other-than-temporary impairments in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 320-10 for each applicable reporting period. These investments have a cumulative unrealized gain (loss) of $126,000 and $(43,000) included in accumulated other comprehensive income at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively. For the three months and six months ended June 30, 2011, our net unrealized gain (loss) on marketable securities was $(219,000) and $106,000, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, our net unrealized loss on marketable securities was $474,000 and $256,000, respectively.
Refinanced Long-Term Debt
On June 24, 2011, we replaced our Australian Corporate Credit Facility with BOS International (“BOSI”) of $115.8 million (AUS$110.0 million) with the proceeds from a new credit facility from National Australia Bank (“NAB”) of $110.5 million (AUS$105.0 million). See Note 11 – Notes Payable and Subordinated Debt (Trust Preferred Securities).
Plans to Refinance Credit Facility
The term of our New Zealand Credit Facility with Westpac matures on March 31, 2012. Accordingly, the June 30, 2011 outstanding balance of this debt of $23.2 million (NZ$28.0 million) is classified as current on our balance sheet. We have started discussions with our current lender as to the renewal of this facility.
Other Income/Expense
For the 2011 Quarter, we recorded an other income of $91,000 compared to an other expense of $129,000 for the 2010 Quarter. The 2011 Quarter other income was primarily related to a gain on the sale of marketable securities and a change in certain long term liabilities and in the 2010 Quarter, the $129,000 other loss included offsetting settlements related to our Burstone litigation and the 2008 sale of our interest in the Botany Downs cinema.
For the 2011 Six Months, we recorded an other income of $75,000 compared to an other expense of $713,000 for the 2010 Six Months. The 2011 Six Months other expense was primarily to a gain on the sale of marketable securities and a change in certain long term liabilities and the 2010 Six Months other expense of $713,000 included offsetting settlements related to our Burstone litigation and the 2008 sale of our interest in the Botany Downs cinema and a $605,000 loss associated our Mackie litigation.
Deferred Leasing Costs
We amortize direct costs incurred in connection with obtaining tenants over the respective term of the lease on a straight-line basis.
Deferred Financing Costs
We amortize direct costs incurred in connection with obtaining financing over the term of the loan using the effective interest method, or the straight-line method, if the result is not materially different. In addition, interest on loans with increasing interest rates and scheduled principal pre-payments, is also recognized using the effective interest method.
Accounting Pronouncements Adopted During 2011
FASB ASU 2010-06 – Fair Value Measurements
ASU 2010-06 requires additional disclosures about the transfers of classifications among the fair value classification levels and the reasons for those changes and separate presentation of purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the presentation of the roll forward of Level 3 assets and liabilities. Those disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. The adoption of this portion of the ASU did not have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.
New Accounting Pronouncements
There were no other new accounting pronouncements issued during the 2011 Six Months that will have a material impact on our financial statements.
Note 2 – Equity and Stock Based Compensation
Stock Based Compensation
During the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, we issued 174,825 and 148,616, respectively, of Class A Nonvoting shares to certain executive employees associated with the vesting of their prior years’ stock grants. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, we accrued $188,000 and $375,000, respectively, in compensation expense associated with the vesting of executive employee stock grants.
Employee/Director Stock Option Plan
We have a long-term incentive stock option plan that provides for the grant to eligible employees, directors, and consultants of incentive or nonstatutory options to purchase shares of our Class A Nonvoting Common Stock and Class B Voting Common Stock. Our 1999 Stock Option Plan expired in November 2009, and was replaced by our new 2010 Stock Incentive Plan, which was approved by the holders of our Class B Voting Common Stock in May 2010.
When the Company’s tax deduction from an option exercise exceeds the compensation cost resulting from the option, a tax benefit is created. FASB ASC 718-40 relating to Stock-Based Compensation (“FASB ASC 718-40”), requires that excess tax benefits related to stock option exercises be reflected as financing cash inflows instead of operating cash inflows. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, there was no impact to the unaudited condensed consolidated statement of cash flows because there were no recognized tax benefits from stock option exercises during these periods.
FASB ASC 718-40 requires companies to estimate forfeitures. Based on our historical experience and the relative market price to strike price of the options, we do not currently estimate any forfeitures of vested or unvested options.
In accordance with FASB ASC 718-40, we estimate the fair value of our options using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which takes into account assumptions such as the dividend yield, the risk-free interest rate, the expected stock price volatility, and the expected life of the options. We exclude the dividend yield from the calculation, as we intend to retain all earnings. We expense the estimated grant date fair values of options issued on a straight-line basis over the vesting period.
We did not grant any options during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 or 2010.
Based on prior years’ assumptions, and, in accordance with the FASB ASC 718-40 modified prospective method, we recorded compensation expense for the total estimated grant date fair value of stock options that vested of $47,000 and $94,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, and $8,000 and $22,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. At June 30, 2011, the total unrecognized estimated compensation cost related to non-vested stock options granted was $204,000, which we expect to recognize over a weighted average vesting period of 1.0 years. 60,000 and 90,000 options were exercised during the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 having a realized value of $91,000 and $138,000, respectively, for which we received $166,000 and $248,000, respectively, of cash. There were no options exercised during the six months ended June 30, 2011. The grant date fair value of options vesting during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 was $47,000 and $94,000, respectively, and $8,000 and $22,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. The intrinsic, unrealized value of all options outstanding, vested and expected to vest, at June 30, 2011 was $474,000 of which 67.2% are currently exercisable.
Pursuant to both our 1999 Stock Option Plan and our 2010 Stock Incentive Plan, all stock options expire within ten years of their grant date. The aggregate total number of shares of Class A Nonvoting Common Stock and Class B Voting Common Stock authorized for issuance under our 2010 Stock Incentive Plan is 1,250,000. At the discretion of our Compensation and Stock Options Committee, the vesting period of stock options is usually between zero and four years.
We had the following stock options outstanding and exercisable as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010:

The weighted average remaining contractual life of all options outstanding, vested, and expected to vest at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was approximately 4.63 and 5.13 years, respectively. The weighted average remaining contractual life of the exercisable options outstanding at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 was approximately 3.88 and 4.38 years, respectively.
Note 3 – Business Segments
We organize our operations into two reportable business segments within the meaning of FASB ASC 280-10 - Segment Reporting. Our reportable segments are (1) cinema exhibition and (2) real estate. The cinema exhibition segment is engaged in the development, ownership, and operation of multiplex cinemas. The real estate segment is engaged in the development, ownership, and operation of commercial properties. Incident to our real estate operations we have acquired, and continue to hold, raw land in urban and suburban centers in Australia and New Zealand.
The tables below summarize the results of operations for each of our principal business segments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. Operating expense includes costs associated with the day-to-day operations of the cinemas and the management of rental properties including our live theater assets (dollars in thousands):

Note 4 – Operations in Foreign Currency
We have significant assets in Australia and New Zealand. To the extent possible, we conduct our Australian and New Zealand operations on a self-funding basis. The carrying value of our Australian and New Zealand assets and liabilities fluctuate due to changes in the exchange rates between the US dollar and the functional currency of Australia (Australian dollar) and New Zealand (New Zealand dollar). We have no derivative financial instruments to hedge against the risk of foreign currency exposure.
Presented in the table below are the currency exchange rates for Australia and New Zealand as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010:

Note 5 – Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to Reading International, Inc. common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing the net income (loss) attributable to Reading International, Inc. common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period after giving effect to all potentially dilutive common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive common shares had been issued. Stock options and non-vested stock awards give rise to potentially dilutive common shares. In accordance with FASB ASC 260-10 - Earnings Per Share, these shares are included in the diluted earnings per share calculation under the treasury stock method. As noted in the table below, due to the small difference between the basic and diluted weighted average common shares, the basic and the diluted earnings (loss) per share are the same for the 2011 Quarter. The following is a calculation of earnings (loss) per share (dollars in thousands, except share data):

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, the weighted average common stock – diluted included 170,995 of stock compensation and in-the-money incremental stock options. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, we recorded losses from continuing operations; therefore, we excluded 25,058 of in-the-money incremental stock options from the computation of diluted loss per share because they were anti-dilutive in those periods. In addition, 714,417 of out-of-the-money stock options were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, and 624,692 of out-of-the-money stock options were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010.

Taringa
In April 2011, we entered into a call option agreement to sell our Taringa Property in Brisbane, Australia for $3.4 million (AUS$3.3 million). In July 2011, the option holder informed us that he is no longer interested in the property and requested a return of his deposit. As we continue to pursue selling this property, it is held for sale at June 30, 2011.
Property Held For and Under Development
Held For Sale Property Reclassified to Held For Development – Burwood
In May 2010, we announced our intent to sell and began actively marketing our 50.6-acre Burwood development site in suburban Melbourne. At June 30, 2011, we had not yet achieved that aim. Pursuant to ASC 360-10-45, as twelve months had passed since this announcement and we lacked a firm commitment from a buyer, we reclassified the current carrying value of this property of $55.9 million (AUS$52.1 million) from assets held for sale to property held for development on our June 30, 2011 condensed consolidated balance sheet. Additionally, based on recent valuations, we continue to believe that the fair market value of the property less costs to sell is greater than the current carrying value; therefore, no asset impairment loss was recorded at the time of the reclassification.
As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we owned property held for and under development summarized as follows (dollars in thousands):

The 3-screen complex in Christchurch, New Zealand owned by our Rialto Cinemas joint venture entity (“Rialto Cinemas”), was damaged as a result of the devastating earthquake suffered by that city on February 22, 2011, and has been closed since that date. Pursuant to the lease on this property, in May 2011, Rialto Cinemas gave notice to the landlord that Rialto Cinemas would be terminating the cinema lease.
Note 8 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets
In accordance with FASB ASC 350-20-35, Goodwill - Subsequent Measurement and Impairment, we perform an annual impairment review in the fourth quarter of our goodwill and other intangible assets on a reporting unit basis, or earlier if changes in circumstances indicate an asset may be impaired. No such circumstances existed during the 2011 Six Months. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we had goodwill consisting of the following (dollars in thousands):

We have intangible assets other than goodwill that are subject to amortization, which we amortize over various periods. We amortize our beneficial leases over the lease period, the longest of which is 30 years; our trade name using an accelerated amortization method over its estimated useful life of 45 years; and our other intangible assets over 10 years. For the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, amortization expense totaled $677,000 and $614,000, respectively; and for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, amortization expense totaled $1.3 million and $1.3 million, respectively.

Investment in Notes Receivable
Short Term Note Receivable
On May 15, 2011, in conjunction with a potential purchase of a cinema, we lent $2.3 million to a cinema operator in exchange for a 90-day note receivable. The note is securitized by three cinemas’ leases and bears an annualized interest of 9.9%.
Other Receivable
On June 14, 2011, we received $6.8 million with respect to the principal and interest owed on a note previously received in connection with a settlement agreement. We believe that further amounts are owed under that note, and we have begun litigation to collect such amounts.
Mortgage Notes Receivable
On February 14, 2011, we purchased for $2.8 million mortgage notes secured by certain properties. These mortgage notes were in default on the date of acquisition and were acquired with the intention of acquiring the underlying properties. In February 2011, we foreclosed on one of these properties valued at $859,000, which is currently classified as a property held for development. We are currently pursuing our remedies for the other mortgage notes, which at June 30, 2011 remained in default. We anticipate that we will ultimately acquire the remaining properties.

Pursuant to ASC 740-10, a provision should be made for the tax effect of earnings of foreign subsidiaries that are not permanently invested outside the United States. Our intent is that earnings of our foreign subsidiaries are not permanently invested outside the United States.
The Reading Australia consolidated group of subsidiaries generated earnings in the six months ending June 30, 2011, but had no cumulative earnings available for distribution. No current or cumulative earnings were available for distribution in the Reading New Zealand consolidated group of subsidiaries or in the Puerto Rico subsidiary as of June 30, 2011. We have provided $453,000 in foreign withholding taxes connected with foreign retained earnings.
Deferred income taxes reflect the “temporary differences” between the financial statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities for financial reporting purposes and the amounts used for income tax purposes, adjusted by the relevant tax rate. In accordance with FASB ASC 740-10 – Income Taxes (“ASC 740-10”), we record net deferred tax assets to the extent we believe these assets will more likely than not be realized. In making such determination, we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax assets and liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and recent financial performance. ASC 740-10 presumes that a valuation allowance is required when there is substantial negative evidence about realization of deferred tax assets, such as a pattern of losses in recent years, coupled with facts that suggest such losses may continue.
In the period ending June 30, 2011, the Company determined that substantial negative evidence regarding the realizable nature of deferred tax assets continues to exist in the U.S., New Zealand, and Puerto Rico subsidiaries, arising from ongoing pre-tax financial losses. Accordingly, the Company continues to record a full valuation allowance for net deferred tax assets available in these subsidiaries. After consideration of a number of factors for the Reading Australia group, including its recent history of pretax financial income, its expected future earnings, the increase in market value of its real estate assets, which would cause taxable gain if sold, and having executed in June 2011 a credit facility of over $100 million to resolve potential liquidity issues, the Company determined that it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets in Reading Australia will be realized. Accordingly, during the three months ended June 30, 2011, Reading Australia reversed $13.6 million of the valuation allowance previously recorded against its net deferred tax, which mainly reflects the loss carryforwards available to offset future taxable income in Australia.
We have accrued $27.1 million in income tax liabilities as of June 30, 2011, of which $24.8 million has been classified as income taxes payable and $2.3 million have been classified as non-current tax liabilities. As part of current tax liabilities, we have accrued $20.1 in connection with the Tax Court judgment, dated January 6, 2011, in final disposition of the 1996 tax litigation matter discussed in Note 13 – Commitments and Contingencies below. We believe these amounts represent an adequate provision for our income tax exposures, including income tax contingencies related to foreign withholding taxes described in Note 12 – Other Liabilities.
We adopted FASB ASC 740-10-25 – Income Taxes - Uncertain Tax Positions (“ASC 740-10-25”) on January 1, 2007. In connection, we record interest and penalties related to income tax matters as part of income tax expense.
The following table is a summary of the activity related to unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, for the periods ending June 30, 2011, December 31, 2010, and December 31, 2009 (dollars in thousands):

At December 31, 2010, the total balance of the gross unrecognized tax benefit was $20.6 million (of which approximately $12.6 million represents interest). Of the $20.6 million gross unrecognized tax benefit at December 31, 2010, approximately $19.5 million would impact the effective tax rate if recognized. For the six months ending June 30, 2011 we recorded a reduction to our gross unrecognized tax benefits of $6.0 million and a decrease to tax interest of $10.5 million, reflecting the Tax Court judgment disposing of the IRS Tax Audit/Litigation case described below, which is a liability no longer in the nature of a reserve for uncertain positions. The net tax balance is approximately $2.1 million, of which $1.0 million would impact the effective rate if recognized.
It is difficult to predict the timing and resolution of uncertain tax positions. Based upon the Company’s assessment of many factors, including past experience and judgments about future events, it is probable that within the next 12 months the reserve for uncertain tax positions will increase within a range of $0.6 million to $0.9 million. The reasons for such changes include but are not limited to tax positions expected to be taken during the next twelve months, reevaluation of current uncertain tax positions, expiring statutes of limitations, and interest related to the ”Tax Audit/Litigation” matter discussed below.
Our company and subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax, income tax in various U.S. states, and income tax in Australia, New Zealand, and Puerto Rico.
Generally, changes to our federal and most state income tax returns for the calendar year 2006 and earlier are barred by statutes of limitations. Certain domestic subsidiaries filed federal and state tax returns for periods before these entities became consolidated with us. These subsidiaries were examined by the IRS for the years 1996 to 1999 and significant tax deficiencies were assessed for those years. Those deficiencies have been settled, as discussed in “Tax Audit/Litigation,” Note 13 – Commitments and Contingencies. Our income tax returns of Australia filed since inception in 1995 are generally open for examination because of operating losses. The income tax returns filed in New Zealand and Puerto Rico for calendar year 2006 and afterward generally remain open for examination as of June 30, 2011.

Nationwide Notes
Pursuant to the terms of the notes, on February 21, 2011, we paid off our Nationwide Loan 2 of $1.5 million with its $359,000 of accrued interest and paid off the accrued interest of $134,000 included in the Nationwide Loan 1 balance.
Australian Corporate Credit Facility
On June 24, 2011, we replaced our Australian Corporate Credit Facility of $115.8 million (AUS$110.0 million) with BOS International (“BOSI”) with a new credit facility from National Australia Bank (“NAB”) of $110.5 million (AUS$105.0 million). NAB provided us term debt of $94.7 million (AUS$90.0 million) and $9.5 million (AUS$9.0 million) in line of credit which we used combined with our cash of $1.6 million (AUS$1.5 million) to pay down our $105.8 million (AUS$100.5 million) of outstanding BOSI debt. The new three-tiered credit facility from NAB (the “NAB Credit Facility”) has a term of three years, due and payable June 30, 2014, and comprises a $94.7 million (AUS$90.0 million) term loan; a $10.5 million (AUS$10.0 million) revolving facility; and a $5.3 million (AUS$5.0 million) guarantee facility. This loan to Reading Entertainment Australia commenced on June 24, 2011 with an interest rate of between 2.90% and 2.15% above the BBSY bid rate. The collateral pledged as security under the NAB Credit Facility is equivalent to that pledged to secure the expired BOSI Facility. The NAB Credit Facility requires annual principal payments of between $7.5 million (AUS$7.0 million) and $9.7 million (AUS$9.0 million) which, it is anticipated, will be paid from Reading Entertainment Australia operating cash flows. The covenants of the NAB Credit Facility include a fixed charge coverage ratio, a debt service cover ratio, an operating leverage ratio, a loan to value ratio, and other financial covenants. Additionally, the NAB Credit Facility allows us to only transfer $4.3 million (AUS$4.0 million) per year outside of Australia. Management believes that maintaining the covenants and payment commitments over the term of the new credit facility can be achieved without any material alteration to the current operating activities of Reading Entertainment Australia.
In conjunction with this NAB Credit Facility, we entered into a five-year interest swap agreement which swaps 100% of our $96.6 million (AUS$90.0 million) variable rate term loan (decreasing in line with scheduled principal repayments) based on BBSY, for a 5.50% fixed rate. For further information regarding our swap agreements, see Note 17 – Derivative Instruments.

Included in our other liabilities are accrued pension costs of $4.6 million at June 30, 2011. The benefits of our pension plans are fully vested, and, as such, no service costs were recognized for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010. Our pension plans are unfunded; therefore, the actuarial assumptions do not include an estimate for expected return on plan assets. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, we recognized $100,000 and $190,000, respectively, of interest cost and $82,000 and $164,000, respectively, of amortized prior service cost. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, we recognized $76,000 and $152,000, respectively, of interest cost and $76,000 and $152,000, respectively, of amortized prior service cost.
Note 13 – Commitments and Contingencies
Unconsolidated Debt
Total debt of unconsolidated joint ventures and entities was $704,000 and $653,000 as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. Our share of unconsolidated debt, based on our ownership percentage, was $234,000 and $218,000 as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. This debt is guaranteed by one of our subsidiaries to the extent of our ownership percentage.
U.S. Federal Tax Settlement
As indicated in our 2010 Annual Report, our subsidiary, Craig Corporation (“Craig”), and the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) in July 2010, settled the proposed assessment by the IRS against Craig for the 1996 tax year. The original assessment of $20.1 million plus interest was settled for $5.4 million plus interest, as reflected in the final judgment of the Tax Court dated January 6, 2011. We anticipate federal and state tax deductions will be available for interest paid to the IRS and to state tax agencies, and that a federal deduction will be available for taxes paid to state tax agencies. While no assurances can be given, we plan to negotiate an orderly payment of this amount over a reasonable period.
The impact of the settlement upon our liability for state taxes remains uncertain but if the adjustment to income agreed with the IRS were reflected on state returns, it would cause a state tax obligation of approximately $1.4 million plus interest and penalty. As of June 30, 2011, no deficiency has been asserted by the State of California, and we have made no final decision as to the course of action to be followed if a deficiency were to be asserted.
Note 14 – Noncontrolling interests
Noncontrolling interests are composed of the following enterprises:
·
|
50% membership interest in Angelika Film Centers LLC (“AFC LLC”) owned by a subsidiary of iDNA, Inc.;
|
·
|
25% noncontrolling interest in Australia Country Cinemas Pty Ltd (“ACC”) owned by Panorama Cinemas for the 21st Century Pty Ltd.; and

Note 17 – Derivative Instruments
We are exposed to interest rate changes from our outstanding floating rate borrowings. We manage our fixed to floating rate debt mix to mitigate the impact of adverse changes in interest rates on earnings and cash flows and on the market value of our borrowings. From time to time, we may enter into interest rate hedging contracts, which effectively convert a portion of our variable rate debt to a fixed rate over the term of the interest rate swap. In the case of our Australian borrowings, we are presently required to swap no less than 75% of our drawdowns under our Australian Corporate Credit Facility into fixed interest rate obligations. In conjunction with this NAB Credit Facility, we entered into a five-year interest swap agreement, which swaps 100% of our variable rate loan based on BBSY for a 5.50% fixed rate loan. Under our GE Capital Term Loan, we are required to swap no less than 50% of our variable rate drawdowns for the first three years of the loan agreement. We elected to swap 100% of the original loan balance on the GE Capital Term Loan and have contracted for balance step-downs that correspond with the loan’s principal payments through December 31, 2013.

In accordance with FASB ASC 815-10-35, Subsequent Valuation of Derivative Instruments and Hedging Instruments (“FASB ASC 815-10-35”), we marked our interest rate swap instruments to market on the consolidated balance sheet resulting in an increase in interest expense of $1.5 million and $1.7 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, and a $342,000 and $119,000 increase in interest expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. At June 30, 2011, we recorded the fair market value of an interest rate swap of $1.4 million as an other long-term liability. At December 31, 2010, we recorded the fair market value of an interest rate swap and a cap of $446,000 as other long-term assets and an interest rate swap of $181,000 as an other long-term liability. In accordance with FASB ASC 815-10-35, we have not designated any of our current interest rate swap positions as financial reporting hedges.

ASC 820-10 establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The statement requires that assets and liabilities carried at fair value be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories:
·
|
Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
|
·
|
Level 2: Observable market based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data.
|
·
|
Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data (were not used to value any of our assets requiring recurring measurements of fair value).
|
We used the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair values of the assets and liabilities:
Level 1 Fair Value Measurements – are based on market quotes of our marketable securities.
Level 2 Fair Value Measurements –
Interest Rate Swaps – The fair value of interest rate swaps and cap are estimated using internal discounted cash flow calculations based upon forward interest rate curves, which are corroborated by market data, and quotes obtained from counterparties to the agreements.
Level 3 Fair Value Measurements – we do not have any assets or liabilities that fall into this category for assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
Impaired Property - For assets measured on a non-recurring basis, such as real estate assets that are required to be recorded at fair value as a result of an impairment, our estimates of fair value are based on management’s best estimate derived from evaluating market sales data for comparable properties developed by a third party appraiser and arriving at management’s estimate of fair value based on such comparable data primarily based on properties with similar characteristics.
As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we held certain items that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These included cash equivalents, available for sale securities, and interest rate derivative contracts. Cash equivalents consist of short-term, highly liquid, income-producing investments, all of which have maturities of 90 days or less. Our available-for-sale securities primarily consist of investments associated with the ownership of marketable securities in Australia. Derivative instruments are related to our economic hedge of interest rates.
The fair values of the interest rate swap agreements are determined using the market standard methodology of discounting the future cash payments and cash receipts on the pay and receive legs of the interest swap agreements that have the net effect of swapping the estimated variable rate note payment stream for a fixed rate payment stream over the period of the swap. The variable interest rates used in the calculation of projected receipts on the interest rate swap and cap agreements are based on an expectation of future interest rates derived from observable market interest rate curves and volatilities. To comply with the provisions of ASC 820-10, we incorporate credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both our own nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty's nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. Although we have determined that the majority of the inputs used to value our derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with our derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by our counterparties and us. However, as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we have assessed the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments on the overall valuation and determined that the credit valuation adjustments are not significant to the overall valuation of our derivatives. As a result, we have determined that our derivative valuations in their entirety are classified in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The nature of our interest rate swap derivative instruments is described in Note 17 – Derivative Instruments.
We have consistently applied these valuation techniques in all periods presented and believe we have obtained the most accurate information available for the types of derivative contracts we hold. Additionally, there were no transfers of assets and liabilities between levels 1, 2, or 3 during the three or six months ended June 30, 2011.

The fair value of notes payable to related party cannot be determined due to the related party nature of the terms of the notes payable.
We estimated the fair value of our secured mortgage notes payable, our unsecured notes payable, trust preferred securities, and other debt instruments by performing discounted cash flow analyses using an appropriate market discount rate. We calculated the market discount rate by obtaining period-end treasury rates for fixed-rate debt, or LIBOR rates for variable-rate debt, for maturities that correspond to the maturities of our debt, adding appropriate credit spreads derived from information obtained from third-party financial institutions. These credit spreads take into account factors such as our credit standing, the maturity of the debt, whether the debt is secured or unsecured, and the loan-to-value ratios of the debt.
Note 19 – Casualty Losses
Our 8-screen complex in Christchurch, New Zealand, was damaged as a result of the devastating earthquake suffered by that city on February 22, 2011, and has been closed since that date. We have earthquake and lost profits insurance on that facility and we are currently in the process of assessing the damage to the property to complete our insurance claims.
Additionally, the 3-screen complex in Christchurch, New Zealand owned by our Rialto Cinemas joint venture entity (“Rialto Cinemas”), was damaged as a result of the devastating earthquake suffered by that city on February 22, 2011, and has been closed since that date. Pursuant to the lease on the property, in May 2011, Rialto Cinemas gave notice to the landlord that Rialto Cinemas would be terminating the cinema lease.
Note 20 – Subsequent Events
Paydown of NAB Revolver
On August 2, 2011, we paid down our NAB revolver by $9.9 million (AUS$9.0 million) resulting in a zero balance on that date.
We are an internationally diversified company principally focused on the development, ownership, and operation of entertainment and real property assets in the United States, Australia, and New Zealand. Our concentration in Australia and New Zealand assets has served us well in times of falling US Dollar values, and our strategy in focusing on hard assets is once again beginning to show strength, particularly as commercial real estate values in Manhattan have firmed.
Currently, we operate in two business segments:
·
|
cinema exhibition, through our 56 multiplex cinemas; and
|
·
|
real estate, including real estate development and the rental of retail, commercial and live theater assets.
|
We believe that these two business segments can complement one another, as we can use the comparatively consistent cash flows generated by our cinema operations to fund the front-end cash demands of our real estate development business.
We manage our worldwide cinema exhibition businesses under various different brands:
·
|
in the US, under the Reading, Angelika Film Center, Consolidated Amusements, and City Cinemas brands;
|
·
|
in Australia, under the Reading brand; and
|
·
|
in New Zealand, under the Reading and Rialto brands.
|
We believe cinema exhibition to be a business that will likely continue to generate relatively consistent cash flows in the years ahead. We base this on our belief that people will continue to spend some reasonable portion of their entertainment dollar on entertainment outside of the home and that, when compared to other forms of outside the home entertainment; movies continue to be a popular and competitively priced option. While we see the cinema exhibition as a mature industry, we anticipate that our cinema operations will continue as our main source of cash flow and will support our real estate oriented activities and may from time to time add cinemas. In this regard, we anticipate opening in late 2012 a new “Angelika” 8-screen cinema in a new retail development currently under construction in Merrifield, Virginia, and have entered into an agreement to purchase an established 17-screen multiplex in California.
In short, while we do have operating company attributes, we see ourselves principally as a hard asset company and intend to add to shareholder value by building the value of our portfolio of tangible assets.
In addition, we may from time to time identify opportunities to expand our existing businesses and asset base, or to otherwise profit, through the acquisition of interests in other publicly traded companies, both in the United States and in the overseas jurisdictions in which we do business. We may also take positions in private companies in addition to our investments in various private cinema joint ventures.
At June 30, 2011, we owned and operated 51 cinemas with 416 screens, had interests in certain unconsolidated joint ventures and entities that own an additional 3 cinemas with 29 screens and managed 2 cinemas with 9 screens. One of these cinemas, our 8-screen complex in Christchurch, New Zealand, was damaged as a result of the devastating earthquake suffered by that city on February 22, 2011, and has been closed since that date. We have earthquake and lost profits insurance on that facility and we are currently in the process of assessing the damage to the property to complete our insurance claims. Additionally, the 3-screen complex in Christchurch, New Zealand owned by our Rialto Cinemas joint venture entity (“Rialto Cinemas”), was also damaged in the February 2011 earthquake, and has been closed since that date. Pursuant to the lease on the property, in May 2011, Rialto Cinemas gave notice to the landlord that Rialto Cinemas would be terminating the cinema lease. We have adjusted our cinema screen count to reflect the permanent closure of this cinema.
As mentioned above, we continue to consider opportunities to expand our cinema operations, while at the same time continuing to cull those cinema assets which are underperforming or have unacceptable risk profiles on a go forward basis. During May 2010, we elected not to renew the lease of our 4-screen Kapiti cinema in New Zealand, and, during September 2010, our landlord terminated the lease on our 8-screen AFC Houston cinema. On April 14, 2011, we sold to our joint venture partner our 66.7% interest in the Elsternwick cinema for $1.9 million (AUS$1.8 million) and recognized a gain on sale of a discontinued operation of $1.7 million (AUS$1.6 million).
Although we have curtailed our real estate development activities, we remain opportunistic in our acquisitions of both cinema and real estate assets. Our business plan going forward is to continue the build-out of our existing development properties and to seek out additional, profitable real estate development opportunities while continuing to use and judiciously expand our presence in the cinema exhibition business by identifying, developing, and acquiring cinema properties when and where appropriate. In addition, we will continue to investigate potential synergistic acquisitions that may not readily fall into either of our two currently identified segments.
On February 14, 2011, we purchased for $2.8 million mortgage notes secured by certain properties. These mortgage notes were in default on the date of acquisition and were acquired with the intention of acquiring the underlying properties. In February 2011, we foreclosed on one of these properties valued at $859,000, which is currently classified as a property held for development. We are currently pursuing our remedies for the other mortgage notes, which at June 30, 2011 remained in default. We anticipate that we will ultimately acquire the remaining properties.
We are currently considering the potential sale of certain of our real estate assets. We have taken steps to sell our Lake Taupo Property in New Zealand. Additionally, in April 2011, we entered into a call option agreement to sell our Taringa Property in Brisbane, Australia for $3.4 million (AUS$3.3 million). In July 2011, the option holder informed us that he is no longer interested in the property and requested a return of his deposit. As we continue to pursue selling this property, it is held for sale at June 30, 2011.
We continue to acquire, to dispose of, or to reposition assets in accordance with our business plan. For the 2011 Quarter, we did not have any acquisitions to note.
Results of Operations
At June 30, 2011, we owned and operated 51 cinemas with 416 screens, had interests in certain unconsolidated joint ventures and entities that own an additional 3 cinemas with 29 screens and managed 2 cinemas with 9 screens. In real estate during the period, we (i) owned and operated four ETRC’s that we developed in Australia and New Zealand, (ii) owned the fee interests in four developed commercial properties in Manhattan and Chicago improved with live theaters comprising seven stages and ancillary retail and commercial space, (iii) owned the fee interests underlying one of our Manhattan cinemas, and (iv) held for development an additional seven parcels aggregating approximately 129 acres located principally in urbanized areas of Australia and New Zealand.
Operating expense includes costs associated with the day-to-day operations of the cinemas and the management of rental properties, including our live theater assets. Our year-to-year results of operations were principally impacted by the fluctuation in the value of the Australian and New Zealand dollars vis-à-vis the US dollar resulting in an increase in results of operations for our foreign operations for 2011 compared to 2010.
The tables below summarize the results of operations for each of our principal business segments for the three (“2011 Quarter”) and six (“2011 Six Months”) months ended June 30, 2011 and the three (“2010 Quarter”) and six (“2010 Six Months”) months ended June 30, 2010, respectively (dollars in thousands):

Cinema revenue increased for the 2011 Quarter by $9.8 million or 18.7% compared to the same period in 2010. The 2011 Quarter increase was primarily related to increases in revenue from our U.S. and Australian cinema operations of $2.3 million and $8.2 million, respectively. These revenue increases were primarily related to an increase in box office attendance of 185,000 and 140,000, respectively, an increase in ticket prices in Australia, and a increase in the value of the Australian dollar compared to the U.S. dollar (see below) compared to the same period last year. Our New Zealand cinema revenue decreased by $752,000 primarily related to a 121,000 decrease in attendance. This revenue decrease was somewhat offset by an increase in the value of the New Zealand dollar compared to the U.S. dollar (see below).
|
·
|
Operating expense increased for the 2011 Quarter by $6.6 million or 15.3% compared to the same period in 2010. This increase followed the increased revenues noted above. Overall, our operating expense as a percent of gross revenue decreased from 82.5% to 80.2%.
|
·
|
Depreciation and amortization expense increased for the 2011 Quarter by $445,000 or 17.4% compared to the same period in 2010 primarily related to certain recently purchased 3D equipment being depreciated in the 2011 Quarter and the inclusion of Charlestown cinema as an operating location since October 2010.
|
·
|
General and administrative costs increased for the 2011 Quarter by $34,000 or 5.4% compared to the same period in 2010.
|
·
|
For our statement of operations, the Australian and New Zealand quarterly average exchange rates increased by 20.2% and 14.2%, respectively, since the 2010 Quarter, which had an impact on the individual components of our income statement.
|
·
|
Because of the above, the cinema exhibition segment income increased for the 2011 Quarter by $2.7 million compared to the same period in 2010, a 45.4% increase.

Cinema revenue increased for the 2011 Six Months by $5.4 million or 5.1% compared to the same period in 2010. The 2011 Six Months increase was primary related to a $9.5 million increase in revenue from our Australian cinema operations primarily related to an increase in ticket prices and an increase in the value of the Australian dollar compared to the U.S. dollar (see below). The Australian cinema operations had a nominal increase in admissions during the period. This increase from our Australian operations was offset by decreases in revenue from our U.S. and New Zealand cinema operations of $1.4 million and $2.6 million, respectively, primarily related to decreases in cinema admissions of 154,000 and 303,000, respectively. The decreased revenue from New Zealand was somewhat offset by an increase in the value of New Zealand dollars compared to the U.S. dollar (see below).
|
·
|
Operating expense increased for the 2011 Six Months by $5.1 million or 5.8% compared to the same period in 2010.

|
·
|
Depreciation and amortization expense increased for the 2011 Six Months by $796,000 or 15.6% compared to the same period in 2010 primarily related to certain recently purchased 3D equipment being depreciated in the 2011 Six Months and the inclusion of Charlestown cinema as an operating location since October 2010.
|
·
|

Real estate revenue increased for the 2011 Quarter by $571,000 or 9.6% compared to the same period in 2010. Real estate revenue increased from our Australian and New Zealand properties primarily due to a year over year increase in the value of the Australian and New Zealand dollars compared to the U.S. dollar. This increase translated to higher Australian and New Zealand revenues for the 2011 Quarter compared to the 2010 Quarter (see below). U.S. real estate revenue decreased primarily due to a drop in live theater revenue in 2011 compared to the same period in 2010.
|
·
|
Operating expense for the real estate segment increased for the 2011 Quarter by $348,000 or 16.0% compared to the same period in 2010. This increase generally followed the increased revenues noted above.
|
·
|
Depreciation and amortization expense for the real estate segment increased by $175,000 or 15.8% for the 2011 Quarter compared to the same period in 2010 primarily due to the aforementioned impact of currency exchange rates (see below).
|
·
|
We recorded a $2.2 million impairment charge related to our Taringa real estate property during the second quarter of 2010 primarily associated with the write-off of development costs of the project.
|
·
|
General and administrative costs decreased for the 2011 Quarter by $274,000 or 57.0% compared to the same period in 2010 primarily due to 2010 litigation costs with the Mackie case in Australia not repeated in 2011.
|
·
|
For our statement of operations, the Australian and New Zealand quarterly average exchange rates increased by 20.2% and 14.2%, respectively, since the 2010 Quarter, which had an impact on the individual components of our income statement.
|
·
|
As a result of the above, real estate segment income increased for the 2011 Quarter by $2.6 million compared to the same period in 2010 primarily related to the above mentioned impairment charge for our Taringa property in 2010.

Real estate revenue increased for the 2011 Six Months by $1.3 million or 11.2% compared to the same period in 2010. Real estate revenue increased from our Australian and New Zealand properties primarily due to a year over year increase in the value of the Australian and New Zealand dollars compared to the U.S. dollar. This increase translated to higher Australian and New Zealand revenues for the 2011 Six Months compared to the 2010 Six Months (see below). Additionally, U.S. real estate revenue increased primarily due to improved live theater revenue in 2011 compared to the same period in 2010.
|
·
|
Operating expense for the real estate segment increased for the 2011 Six Months by $499,000 or 11.4% compared to the same period in 2010. This increase generally followed the increased revenues noted above.
|
·
|
Depreciation and amortization expense for the real estate segment increased by $253,000 or 11.2% for the 2011 Six Months compared to the same period in 2010 primarily due to the aforementioned impact of currency exchange rates (see below).
|
·
|
We recorded a $2.2 million impairment charge related to our Taringa real estate property during the second quarter of 2010 primarily associated with the write-off of development costs of the project.
|
·
|
General and administrative costs decreased for the 2011 Six Months by $312,000 or 44.2% compared to the same period in 2010 primarily due to 2010 litigation costs with the Mackie case in Australia not repeated in 2011.
|
·
|
For our statement of operations, the Australian and New Zealand six month average exchange rates increased by 15.7% and 10.4%, respectively, since the 2010 Six Months, which had an impact on the individual components of our income statement.
|
·
|
As a result of the above, real estate segment income increased for the 2011 Six Months by $3.1 million compared to the same period in 2010 primarily related to the above mentioned impairment charge for our Taringa property in 2010.

Corporate
Quarterly Results
General and administrative expense increased by $379,000 in the 2011 Quarter compared to the 2010 Quarter, primarily related to additional labor costs associated with our transfer of our accounting functions from the U.S. and Australia to New Zealand; offset by, a decrease in legal and consulting fees primarily associated with our federal tax litigation, which was settled during July 2010.
Net interest expense increased by $1.3 million for the 2011 Quarter compared to the 2010 Quarter. The increase in interest expense during the 2011 Quarter was primarily related to an increase in interest expense from the change in fair value of our interest rate swaps in 2011 than that of the same period in 2010.
For the 2011 Quarter, we recorded an other income of $91,000 compared to an other expense of $129,000 for the 2010 Quarter. The 2011 Quarter other income was primarily related to a gain on the sale of marketable securities and a change in certain long term liabilities and in the 2010 Quarter, the $129,000 other loss included offsetting settlements related to our Burstone litigation and the 2008 sale of our interest in the Botany Downs cinema.
During the 2011 Quarter, we recorded a $68,000 loss on sale of assets primarily related to the disposal of certain obsolete assets. During the 2010 Quarter, we recorded a $351,000 gain on sale of assets primarily related to a deferred gain on sale of a property.
For the 2011 Quarter, we recorded a gain on the sale of a discontinued operation for our Elsternwick Cinema of $1.7 million that is included in our income from discontinued operations.
For the 2011 Quarter, we recorded an income tax benefit of $13.8 million primarily associated with a one-time tax provision adjustment of $14.4 million. For the 2010 Quarter, we recorded an income tax expense of $12.2 million primarily relating to additional tax accrual associated with our potential tax exposures related to our tax litigation settlement. For more information regarding these tax provision and accrual adjustments see Note 10 – Income Tax.
Six Months Results
General and administrative expense increased by $428,000 in the 2011 Six Months compared to the 2010 Six Months, primarily related to additional labor costs associated with our transfer of our accounting functions from the U.S. and Australia to New Zealand; offset by, a decrease in legal and consulting fees primarily associated with our federal tax litigation, which was settled during July 2010.
Net interest expense increased by $2.2 million for the 2011 Six Months compared to the 2010 Six Months. The increase in interest expense during the 2011 Six Months was primarily related to an increase in interest expense from the change in fair value of our interest rate swaps in 2011 than that of the same period in 2010.
For the 2011 Six Months, we recorded an other income of $75,000 compared to an other expense of $713,000 for the 2010 Six Months. The 2011 Six Months other expense was primarily related to a gain on the sale of marketable securities and a change in certain long term liabilities and the 2010 Six Months other expense of $713,000 included offsetting settlements related to our Burstone litigation and the 2008 sale of our interest in the Botany Downs cinema and a $605,000 loss associated our Mackie litigation.
During the 2011 Six Months, we recorded a $68,000 loss on sale of assets primarily related to the disposal of certain obsolete assets. During the 2010 Six Months, we recorded a $351,000 gain on sale of assets primarily related to a deferred gain on sale of a property.
For the 2011 Six Months, we recorded a gain on the sale of a discontinued operation for our Elsternwick Cinema of $1.7 million that is included in our income from discontinued operations.
For the 2011 Six Months, we recorded an income tax benefit of $13.1 million primarily associated with a one-time tax provision adjustment of $14.4 million. For the 2010 Six Months, we recorded an income tax expense of $12.8 million primarily relating to additional tax accrual associated with our potential tax exposures related to our tax litigation settlement. For more information regarding these tax provision and accrual adjustments see Note 10 – Income Tax.
Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Reading International, Inc. Common Shareholders
During 2011, we recorded a net income attributable to Reading International, Inc. common shareholders of $17.4 million for the 2011 Quarter compared to a net loss of $13.7 million for the 2010 Quarter and a net income of $15.0 million for the 2011 Six Months compared to a net loss of $13.4 million for the 2010 Six Months. The change from a net loss to a net income from 2010 to 2011 was primarily a one-time tax provision adjustment of $14.4 million in 2011 and a one-time income tax accrual of $12.0 million for our federal tax case settlement and a property impairment charge of $2.2 million in 2010.
Business Plan, Capital Resources, and Liquidity
Business Plan
Our cinema exhibition business plan is to continue to identify, develop, and acquire cinema properties, where reasonably available, that allow us to leverage our cinema expertise and technology over a larger operating base. Our real estate business plan is to continue development of our existing land assets to be sensitive to opportunities to convert our entertainment assets to higher and better uses, or, when appropriate, dispose of such assets. Because we believe that current economic conditions are not conducive to obtaining the pre-construction leasing commitments necessary to justify commencement of construction, we currently focus our development efforts on improving and enhancing land entitlements and negotiating with end users for build to suit projects. In addition, we review opportunities to monetize our assets where such action leads to a financially acceptable outcome. We will also continue to investigate potential synergistic acquisitions that may not readily fall into either of our two currently identified segments.

We base estimated interest on long-term debt on the anticipated loan balances for future periods calculated against current fixed and variable interest rates.
We adopted FASB ASC 740-10-25, Income Taxes – Uncertain Tax Positions on January 1, 2007. As of adoption, the total amount of gross unrecognized tax benefits for uncertain tax positions was $12.5 million decreasing to $2.1 million as of June 30, 2011. While no assurances can be given, we plan to negotiate an orderly payment of the IRS assessment over a reasonable period. Thus, we expect a partial payment related to these obligations to occur within the next twelve months, though the amount of this payment is uncertain.
Unconsolidated Debt
Total debt of unconsolidated joint ventures and entities was $704,000 and $653,000 as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. Our share of unconsolidated debt, based on our ownership percentage, was $234,000 and $218,000 as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010. This loan is guaranteed by one of our subsidiaries to the extent of our ownership percentage.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
There are no off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements or obligations (including contingent obligations) that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a current or future material effect on our financial condition, changes in the financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources.
Currency Risk
We are subject to currency risk because we conduct a significant portion of our business in Australia and New Zealand. Set forth below is a chart indicating the various exchange rates at certain points in time for the Australian and New Zealand Dollar vis-à-vis the US Dollar over the past 20 years.
We do not engage in currency hedging activities. Rather, to the extent possible, we operate our Australian and New Zealand operations on a self-funding basis. Our policy in Australia and New Zealand is to match revenues and expenses, whenever possible, in local currencies. As a result, we have procured in local currencies the majority of our expenses in Australia and New Zealand. Due to the developing nature of our operations in Australia and New Zealand and our historic practice of funding our asset growth through local borrowings, our revenues are not yet significantly greater than our operating expenses and interest charges in these countries. As we continue to progress with our acquisition and development activities in Australia and New Zealand, the effect of variations in currency values will likely increase.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operating activities in order to meet our obligations and commitments drives our liquidity position. This is further affected by our ability to obtain adequate, reasonable financing and/or to convert non-performing or non-strategic assets into cash.
Currently, our liquidity needs arise primarily from:
·
|
capital expenditure needs for our expanding digital and 3D implementations;
|
·
|
working capital requirements; and
|
·
|
debt servicing requirements.
|
Cash Liquidity
Of the $38.2 million cash on hand at June 30, 2011, $24.3 million was in Australia, $12.1 million was in the U.S., and $1.8 million was in New Zealand. Of the $24.3 million in Australia, pursuant to our new NAB credit agreement, we are only able to transfer $4.3 million (AUS$4.0 million) per year outside of Australia. Of the $12.1 million in the U.S., $4.7 million is included in our Consolidated Entertainment subsidiary and is subject to certain debt covenants with GE Capital that limit the use of this cash outside of the subsidiary. Therefore, Reading has approximately $13.5 million of cash worldwide that is not restricted by covenants.
Long-Term Debt
Australian Credit Facility
On June 24, 2011, we replaced our Australian Corporate Credit Facility of $115.8 million (AUS$110.0 million) with BOS International with a new credit facility from National Australia Bank of $110.5 million (AUS$105.0 million) (see Note 11 – Notes Payable and Subordinated Debt (Trust Preferred Securities)).
New Zealand Credit Facility
The term of our New Zealand Credit Facility with Westpac matures on March 31, 2012. Accordingly, the June 30, 2011 outstanding balance of this debt of $23.2 million (NZ$28.0 million) is classified as current on our balance sheet. We are continuing discussions with our current lender as to the renewal of this facility.
Operating Activities
Cash provided by operations was $10.1 million in the 2011 Six Months compared to $10.7 million in the 2010 Six Months. The decrease in cash provided by operations of $592,000 was due primarily to a $57,000 change in operating assets and liabilities (excluding $12.8 million accrual for our tax litigation settlement) and $535,000 decrease of operational cash flows.
Investing Activities
Cash provided by investing activities for the 2011 Six Months was $387,000 compared to cash used in investing activities of $8.7 million from the same period in 2010, a change of $9.0 million. The $387,000 of cash provided by investing activities for the 2011 Six Months was primarily related to:
·
|
$3.2 million in property enhancements to our existing properties;
|
·
|
$5.0 million for the purchase of notes receivable including $2.8 million for the purchase of mortgage notes receivable and $2.3 million for the note receivable securitized by certain cinema leases; and
|
·
|
$136,000 of a change in restricted cash;
|
offset by
·
|
$123,000 of proceeds from the sale of marketable securities;
|
·
|
$6.8 million of proceeds from the pay off of a long-term other receivable;
|
·
|
$1.9 million of net proceeds from the sale of our 66.7% share of the 5-screen Elsternwick Classic cinema located in Melbourne, Australia.
|
The $8.7 million cash used for the 2010 Six Months was primarily related to:
·
|
$4.4 million in property enhancements to our existing properties;
|
·
|
$2.9 million to purchase a property adjacent to our Manukau property;
|
·
|
$1.5 million of change in restricted cash; and
|
·
|
$223,000 of an acquisition deposit
|
offset by
·
|
$259,000 in return of investment of unconsolidated entities.
|
Financing Activities
Cash used in financing activities for the 2011 Six Months was $8.5 million compared to $1.1 million of cash provided by financing activities for the same period in 2010 resulting in a change of $9.6 million. The $8.5 million in cash used in financing activities during the 2011 Six Months was primarily related to:
·
|
$104.6 million of new borrowing including $104.2 million of loan proceeds from our new NAB loan net of $684,000 of capitalized borrowing costs and $1.1 million of borrowing from our New Zealand credit facility;
|
offset by
·
|
$112.4 million of loan repayments including the $105.8 million payoff of our Australian BOSI loan, $4.3 million in loan repayment on our GE Capital Loan, and $2.0 million pay down of our Nationwide Notes;
|
·
|
$111,000 of repurchase of Class A Nonvoting Common Stock; and
|
·
|
$554,000 in noncontrolling interests’ distributions.
|
The $1.1 million in cash provided by financing activities during the 2010 Six Months was primarily related to:
·
|
$8.0 million of borrowing on our New Zealand credit facility;
|
·
|
$7.5 million of borrowing proceeds from our new Union Square Theater Term Loan; and
|
·
|
$248,000 of proceeds from the exercise of employee stock options;
|
offset by
·
|
$13.8 million of loan repayments including $6.9 million for the pay off of our Union Square Term Loan, $5.0 million for the pay off of our SHC Loan, and $1.7 million pay down of our GE Capital Loan;
|
·
|
$251,000 of repurchase of Class A Nonvoting Common Stock; and
|
·
|
$751,000 in noncontrolling interest distributions.
|
Critical Accounting Policies
The SEC defines critical accounting policies as those that are, in management’s view, most important to the portrayal of the company’s financial condition and results of operations and the most demanding in their calls on judgment. Although accounting for our core business of cinema and live theater exhibition with a real estate focus is relatively straightforward, we believe our most critical accounting policies relate to:
·
|
impairment of long-lived assets, including goodwill and intangible assets;
|
·
|
tax valuation allowance and obligations; and
|
·
|
legal and environmental obligations.
|
We discuss these critical accounting policies in our 2010 Annual Report and advise you to refer to that discussion.
Financial Risk Management
Our internally developed risk management procedure, seeks to minimize the potentially negative effects of changes in currency exchange rates and interest rates on the results of operations. Our primary exposure to fluctuations in the financial markets is currently due to changes in currency exchange rates between U.S and Australia and New Zealand, and interest rates.
As our operational focus continues to shift to Australia and New Zealand, unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses could materially affect our financial position. We currently manage our currency exposure by creating, whenever possible, natural hedges in Australia and New Zealand. This involves local country sourcing of goods and services as well as borrowing in local currencies.
Our exposure to interest rate risk arises out of our long-term debt obligations. Consistent with our internally developed guidelines, we seek to reduce the negative effects of changes in interest rates by changing the character of the interest rate on our long-term debt, converting a variable rate into a fixed rate. Our internal procedures allow us to enter into derivative contracts on certain borrowing transactions to achieve this goal. Our Australian credit facilities provide for floating interest rates but require that not less than a certain percentage of the loans be swapped into fixed rate obligations using derivative contracts.
In accordance with FASB ASC 815-10-35, Subsequent Valuation of Derivative Instruments and Hedging Instruments (“FASB ASC 815-10-35”), we marked our interest rate swap instruments to market on the consolidated balance sheet resulting in an increase in interest expense of $1.5 million and $1.7 million during the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, and a $342,000 and $119,000 increase in interest expense during the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. At June 30, 2011, we recorded the fair market value of an interest rate swap of $1.4 million as an other long-term liability. At December 31, 2010, we recorded the fair market value of an interest rate swap and a cap of $446,000 as other long-term assets and an interest rate swap of $181,000 as an other long-term liability. In accordance with FASB ASC 815-10-35, we have not designated any of our current interest rate swap positions as financial reporting hedges.
Inflation
We continually monitor inflation and the effects of changing prices. Inflation increases the cost of goods and services used. Competitive conditions in many of our markets restrict our ability to recover fully the higher costs of acquired goods and services through price increases. We attempt to mitigate the impact of inflation by implementing continuous process improvement solutions to enhance productivity and efficiency and, as a result, lower costs and operating expenses. In our opinion, we have managed the effects of inflation appropriately, and, as a result, it has not had a material impact on our operations and the resulting financial position or liquidity.
Litigation
We are currently, and are from time to time, involved with claims and lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of our business. Some examples of the types of claims are:
·
|
contractual obligations;
|
·
|
environmental matters; and
|
Where we are the plaintiffs, we expense all legal fees on an on-going basis and make no provision for any potential settlement amounts until received. In Australia, the prevailing party is entitled to recover its attorneys’ fees, which typically works out to be approximately 60% of the amounts actually spent where first class legal counsel is engaged at customary rates. Where we are a plaintiff, we have likewise made no provision for the liability for the defendant’s attorneys' fees in the event we are determined not to be the prevailing party.
Where we are the defendants, we accrue for probable damages, which insurance may not cover, as they become known and can be reasonably estimated. In our opinion, any claims and litigation in which we are currently involved are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial position, or liquidity. However, we do not give any assurance as to the ultimate outcome of such claims and litigation. The resolution of such claims and litigation could be material to our operating results for any particular period, depending on the level of income for such period. Except as noted below, there have been no material changes to our litigation exposure since our 2010 Annual Report.
U.S. Federal Tax Settlement
As indicated in our 2010 Annual Report, our subsidiary, Craig Corporation (“Craig”), and the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) in July 2010, settled the proposed assessment by the IRS against Craig for the 1996 tax year. The original assessment of $20.1 million plus interest was settled for $5.4 million plus interest, as reflected in the final judgment of the Tax Court dated January 6, 2011. We anticipate federal and state tax deductions will be available for interest paid to the IRS and to state tax agencies, and that a federal deduction will be available for taxes paid to state tax agencies. While no assurances can be given, we plan to negotiate an orderly payment of this amount over a reasonable period.
The impact of the settlement upon our liability for state taxes remains uncertain but if the adjustment to income agreed with the IRS were reflected on state returns, it would cause a state tax obligation of approximately $1.4 million plus interest and penalty. As of June 30, 2011, no deficiency has been asserted by the State of California, and we have made no final decision as to the course of action to be followed if a deficiency were to be asserted.
Forward-Looking Statements
Our statements in this interim quarterly report contain a variety of forward-looking statements as defined by the Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements reflect only our expectations regarding future events and operating performance and necessarily speak only as of the date the information was prepared. We cannot guarantee that our expectation will be realized in whole or in part. You can recognize these statements by our use of words such as, by way of example, “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” and “anticipate” or other similar terminology.
These forward-looking statements reflect our expectation after having considered a variety of risks and uncertainties. However, they are necessarily the product of internal discussion and do not necessarily completely reflect the views of individual members of our Board of Directors or of our management team. Individual Board members and individual members of our management team may have different views as to the risks and uncertainties involved, and may have different views as to future events or our operating performance.
Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or underlying our forward-looking statements are the following:
·
|
With respect to our cinema operations:
|
o
|
The number and attractiveness to movie goers of the films released in future periods;
|
o
|
The amount of money spent by film distributors to promote their motion pictures;
|
o
|
The ability to implement digital and 3D projectors throughout our cinema circuits worldwide;
|
o
|
The licensing fees and terms required by film distributors from motion picture exhibitors in order to exhibit their films;
|
o
|
The continued willingness of moviegoers to spend money on our concession items;
|
o
|
The comparative attractiveness of motion pictures as a source of entertainment and willingness and/or ability of consumers (i) to spend their dollars on entertainment and (ii) to spend their entertainment dollars on movies in an outside the home environment;
|
o
|
The extent to which we encounter competition from other cinema exhibitors, from other sources of outside of the home entertainment, and from inside the home entertainment options, such as “home theaters” and competitive film product distribution technology such as, by way of example, cable, satellite broadcast, DVD and VHS rentals and sales, and so called “movies on demand”; and
|
o
|
The extent to and the efficiency with which, we are able to integrate acquisitions of cinema circuits with our existing operations.
|
·
|
With respect to our real estate development and operation activities:
|
o
|
The rental rates and capitalization rates applicable to the markets in which we operate and the quality of properties that we own;
|
o
|
The extent to which we can obtain on a timely basis the various land use approvals and entitlements needed to develop our properties;
|
o
|
The risks and uncertainties associated with real estate development;
|
o
|
The availability and cost of labor and materials;
|
o
|
Competition for development sites and tenants;
|
o
|
Environmental remediation issues; and
|
o
|
The extent to which our cinemas can continue to serve as an anchor tenant who will, in turn, be influenced by the same factors as will influence generally the results of our cinema operations.
|
·
|
With respect to our operations generally as an international company involved in both the development and operation of cinemas and the development and operation of real estate:
|
o
|
Our ongoing access to borrowed funds and capital and the interest that must be paid on that debt and the returns that must be paid on such capital;
|
o
|
The relative values of the currency used in the countries in which we operate;
|
o
|
Changes in government regulation;
|
o
|
Our labor relations and costs of labor (including future government requirements with respect to pension liabilities, disability insurance and health coverage, and vacations and leave);
|
o
|
Our exposure from time to time to legal claims and to uninsurable risks such as those related to our historic railroad operations, including potential environmental claims and health related claims relating to alleged exposure to asbestos or other substances now or in the future, recognized as being possible causes of cancer or other health related problems;
|
o
|
Changes in future effective tax rates and the results of currently ongoing and future potential audits by taxing authorities having jurisdiction over our various companies; and
|
o
|
Changes in applicable accounting policies and practices.
|
The above list is not exhaustive, as business is inherently unpredictable, risky, and subject to influence by numerous factors outside of our control. Such factors include changes in government regulation or policy, competition, interest rates, supply, technological innovation, changes in consumer taste and fancy, weather, and the extent to which consumers in our markets have the economic ability to spend money on beyond-the-home entertainment.
Given the variety and unpredictability of the factors that will ultimately influence our businesses and our results of operation, it naturally follows that no guarantees can be given that any of our forward-looking statements will ultimately prove to be correct. Actual results will undoubtedly vary and there is no guarantee as to how our securities will perform either when considered in isolation or when compared to other securities or investment opportunities.
Finally, please understand that we undertake no obligation to update publicly or to revise any of our forward-looking statements, whether because of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable law. Accordingly, you should always note the date to which our forward-looking statements speak.
Additionally, certain of the presentations included in this interim quarterly report may contain “non-GAAP financial measures.” In such case, we will make available in connection with such statements a reconciliation of this information to our GAAP financial statements.
The SEC requires that registrants include information about potential effects of changes in currency exchange and interest rates in their filings. Several alternatives, all with some limitations, have been offered. We base the following discussion on a sensitivity analysis, which models the effects of fluctuations in currency exchange rates and interest rates. This analysis is constrained by several factors, including the following:
·
|
It is based on a single point in time; and
|
·
|
It does not include the effects of other complex market reactions that would arise from the changes modeled.
|
Although the results of such an analysis may be useful as a benchmark, they should not be viewed as forecasts.
At June 30, 2011, approximately 59% and 17% of our assets were invested in assets denominated in Australian dollars (Reading Australia) and New Zealand dollars (Reading New Zealand), respectively, including approximately $26.1 million in cash and cash equivalents. At December 31, 2010, approximately 55% and 16% of our assets were invested in assets denominated in Australian dollars (Reading Australia) and New Zealand dollars (Reading New Zealand) including approximately $18.1 million in cash and cash equivalents.
Our policy in Australia and New Zealand is to match revenues and expenses, whenever possible, in local currencies. As a result, we have procured in local currencies a majority of our expenses in Australia and New Zealand. Due to the developing nature of our operations in Australia and New Zealand, our revenue is not yet significantly greater than our operating and interest expenses. Despite this natural hedge, recent movements in foreign currencies have had an effect on our current earnings. Although foreign currency has had a nominal effect on our current earnings, the effect of the translation adjustment on our assets and liabilities noted in our other comprehensive income was an increase of $8.8 million and $11.4 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively. As we continue to progress our acquisition and development activities in Australia and New Zealand, we cannot assure you that the foreign currency effect on our earnings will be negligible in the future.
Historically, our policy has been to borrow in local currencies to finance the development and construction of our ETRCs in Australia and New Zealand whenever possible. As a result, the borrowings in local currencies have provided somewhat of a natural hedge against the foreign currency exchange exposure. Even so, and as a result of our issuance of fully subordinated notes (TPS) in 2007, and their subsequent partial repayment, approximately 53% and 52% of our Australian and New Zealand assets, respectively, remain subject to such exposure unless we elect to hedge our foreign currency exchange between the US and Australian and New Zealand dollars. If the foreign currency rates were to fluctuate by 10% the resulting change in Australian and New Zealand assets would be $14.3 million and $4.0 million, respectively, and the change in our quarterly net income would be $1.8 million and $88,000, respectively. Presently, we have no plan to hedge such exposure.
We record unrealized foreign currency translation gains or losses that could materially affect our financial position. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, we have recorded a cumulative unrealized foreign currency translation gain of approximately $70.5 million and $59.1 million, respectively.
Historically, we maintain most of our cash and cash equivalent balances in short-term money market instruments with original maturities of three months or less. Due to the short-term nature of such investments, a change of 1% in short-term interest rates would not have a material effect on our financial condition.
While we have typically used fixed rate financing (secured by first mortgages) in the U.S., fixed rate financing is typically not available to corporate borrowers in Australia and New Zealand. The majority of our Australian and New Zealand bank loans have variable rates. The Australian facility provides for floating interest rates, but requires that not less than a certain percentage of the loan be swapped into fixed rate obligations (see Financial Risk Management above). If we consider the interest rate swaps, a 1% increase or decrease in short-term interest rates would have resulted in approximately $70,000 increase or decrease in our 2011 Quarter’s Australian and New Zealand interest expense.
We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Exchange Act reports, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such, term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2011 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
