Summary Of Significant Accounting Policies

Note 2 – Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements of RDI and its subsidiaries include the accounts of RDGE, CRG, and CDL. Also consolidated are Australia Country Cinemas Pty, Limited (“ACC”), a company in which we own a 75% interest and whose only assets are our leasehold cinemas in Townsville and Dubbo, Australia; the Angelika Film Center LLC (“AFC”) in which we own a 50% controlling membership interest and whose only asset is the Angelika Film Center in Manhattan, and Shadow View Land and Farming, LLC in which we own a 50% controlling membership interest and whose only asset is a 202 acre land parcel in Coachella, California .

Our investment interests are accounted for as unconsolidated joint ventures and entities, and accordingly, our unconsolidated joint ventures and entities in 20% to 50% owned companies are accounted for on the equity method. These investment interests include our

·	25% undivided interest in the unincorporated joint venture that owns 205-209 East 57th Street Associates, LLC (Place 57) a limited liability company formed to redevelop our former cinema site at 205 East 57th Street in Manhattan;

·	33.3% undivided interest in the unincorporated joint venture that owns the Mt. Gravatt cinema in a suburb of Brisbane, Australia;

·	33.3% undivided interest in Rialto Distribution, an unincorporated joint venture engaged in the business of distributing art film in New Zealand and Australia; and

·	50% undivided interest in the unincorporated joint venture that owns Rialto Cinemas.

Refinancing Long-Term Debt

Liberty Theatre Term Loans

As our Liberty Theater Term Loans are due to mature on April 1, 2013, the December 31, 2012 outstanding balance of this debt of $6.4 million is classified as current on our balance sheet. We intend to refinance the property’s debt.

Cinemas 1, 2, 3 Loan

U.S. Credit Facility

Australian Credit Facility

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). The outstanding balance of this loan of $101.7 million (AUS$100.5 million) was classified as a current liability at December 31, 2010 on our 2010 Consolidated Balance Sheet as we had not refinanced the then currently maturing facility prior to the annual report issuance date. See Note 12 – Notes Payable.

Cash Position

Our cash position at December 31, 2012 was $46.5 million including an $8.0 million time deposit in Australia. Of the $46.5 million, $17.5 million was in Australia, $22.7 million was in the U.S., and $6.3 million was in New Zealand. As part of our main credit facilities in Australia, New Zealand and the U.S., we are subject to certain debt covenants which limit the transfer or use of cash outside of the various regional subsidiaries in which the cash is held. As such, at December 31, 2012, we have approximately $7.5 million of cash worldwide that is not restricted by loan covenants.

At December 31, 2012, we had undrawn funds of $10.4 million (AUS$10.0 million) available under our NAB line of credit in Australia, $9.9 million (NZ$12.0 million) available under our New Zealand Corporate Credit facility, and $3.0 million available under our BofA Revolver in the U.S. Accordingly, we believe that we have sufficient borrowing capacity under our various credit facilities, together with our $46.5 million cash balance, to meet our anticipated short-term working capital requirements.

Accounting Principles

Our consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”).

Cash and Cash Equivalents

We consider all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents for which cost approximates fair value.

Time Deposits

Time deposits are cash depository investments in which the original maturity of the investments is greater than 90 days. During May 2012, we purchased $8.0 million in U.S. dollar time deposits in Australia which mature on January 3, 2013 having an interest rate of 0.48%.

Receivables

Our receivables balance is composed primarily of credit card receivables, representing the purchase price of tickets, concessions, or coupon books sold at our various businesses. Sales charged on customer credit cards are collected when the credit card transactions are processed. The remaining receivables balance is primarily made up of the goods and services tax (“GST”) refund receivable from our Australian taxing authorities and the management fee receivable from the managed cinemas. We have no history of significant bad debt losses and we have established an allowance for accounts that we deem uncollectible.

Inventory

Inventory is composed of concession goods used in theater operations and is stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value.

Investment in Marketable Securities

We account for investments in marketable debt and equity securities in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 320-10 - Investments—Debt and Equity Securities (“ASC 320-10”). Our investment in Marketable Securities includes equity instruments that are classified as available for sale and are recorded at market using the specific identification method. In accordance with ASC 320-10, available for sale securities are carried at their fair market value and any difference between cost and market value is recorded as unrealized gain or loss, net of income taxes, and is reported as accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated statement of stockholders’ equity. Premiums and discounts of any debt instruments are recognized in interest income using the effective interest method. Realized gains and losses and declines in value expected to be other-than-temporary on available for sale securities are included in other expense. We evaluate our available for sale securities for other than temporary impairments at the end of each reporting period. These investments have a cumulative unrealized gain of $9,000 included in other comprehensive income at December 31, 2012. For the twelve months ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, our net unrealized losses were $2,000, $32,000, and $478,000, respectively. The cost of securities sold is based on the specific identification method. Interest and dividends on securities classified as available for sale are included in interest income.

Restricted Cash

We classify restricted cash as those cash accounts for which the use of funds is restricted by contract or bank covenant. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, our restricted cash balance was $2.5 million and $2.4 million, respectively, which were primarily funds held in escrow for our Mackie litigation settlement.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of our cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, restricted cash, and accounts payable approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities. See Note 16 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments.

Derivative Financial Instruments

In accordance with FASB ASC 815-20 – Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815-20”), we carry all derivative financial instruments on our consolidated balance sheets at fair value. Derivatives are generally executed for interest rate management purposes but are not designated as hedges in accordance with ASC 815-20. Therefore, changes in market values are recognized in current earnings.

Operating property

Operating property consists of land, buildings and improvements, leasehold improvements, fixtures and equipment which we use to derive operating income associated with our two business segments, cinema exhibition and real estate. Buildings and improvements, leasehold improvements, fixtures and equipment initially recorded at the lower of cost or fair market value and depreciated over the useful lives of the related assets. In accordance with US GAAP, land is not depreciated.

Investment and Development Property

Investment and development property consists of land, new buildings and improvements under development, and their associated capitalized interest and other development costs that we are either holding for development, currently developing, or holding for investment appreciation purposes. These properties are initially recorded at the lower of cost or fair market value. Within investment and development property are building and improvement costs directly associated with the development of potential cinemas (whether for sale or lease), the development of entertainment themed retail centers (“ETRCs”), or other improvements to real property. As incurred, we expense start-up costs (such as pre-opening cinema advertising and training expense) and other costs not directly related to the acquisition and development of long-term assets. We cease capitalization on a development property when the property is complete and ready for its intended use, or if activities necessary to get the property ready for its intended use have been substantially curtailed. During the year-ended December 31, 2009, we decided to curtail our current development progress on certain Australian and New Zealand land development projects. As a result, these properties are considered held for development and we have not capitalized interest for these projects and will not do so, until the development work recommences.

Incident to the development of our Burwood property, in late 2006, we began various fill and earth moving operations. In late February 2007, it became apparent that our cost estimates with respect to site preparation were low, as the extent of the contaminated soil present at the site, a former brickworks site, was greater than we had originally believed. As we were not the source of this contamination, we are not currently under any legal obligation to remove this contaminated soil from the site. However, as a practical matter, we intend to address these issues in connection with our planned redevelopment of the site as a mixed-use retail, entertainment, commercial and residential complex. As of December 31, 2012, we estimate that the total site preparation costs associated with the removal of this contaminated soil will be $17.7 million (AUS$17.1 million) and as of that date we had incurred a total of $8.6 million (AUS$8.3 million) of these costs. In accordance with FASB ASC 410-30-25 – Environmental Obligations, contamination clean up costs that improve the property from its original acquisition state are capitalized as part of the property’s overall development costs.

Accounting for the Impairment of Long Lived Assets

We assess whether there has been impairment in the value of our long-lived assets whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. Recoverability of assets to be held and used is then measured by a comparison of the carrying amount to the future net cash flows, undiscounted and without interest, expected to be generated by the asset. If such assets are considered impaired, the impairment to be recognized is measured by the amount by which the carrying amount of the assets exceeds the fair value of the assets. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of the carrying amount or fair value, less costs to sell. We recorded impairment losses of approximately $1.5 million, $369,000, and $2.2 million, relating to certain of our operating property and investment and development property for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively. The impairments reflect our estimates of fair value which were based on appraisals or a discounted income approach with market based assumptions. Our impairment calculations contain uncertainties and use significant estimates and judgments, and are based on the information available at the balance sheet date. Future economic and other events could negatively impact the evaluation and future material impairment charges may become necessary. We evaluate our joint venture investments for other than temporary impairments in accordance with FASB ASC 318-10 – Investments—Equity Method and Joint Ventures. For a further explanation of our 2012 impairment losses see Note 7 – Investment and Development Property.

Variable Interest Entity

Our determination of the appropriate accounting method with respect to our investment in Reading International Trust I, which is considered a Variable Interest Entity (“VIE”), is based on FASB ASC 810-10. We account for this VIE, of which we are not the primary beneficiary, under the equity method of accounting.

We determine if an entity is a VIE under FASB ASC 810-10 based on several factors, including whether the entity’s total equity investment at risk upon inception is sufficient to finance the entity’s activities without additional subordinated financial support. We make judgments regarding the sufficiency of the equity at risk based first on a qualitative analysis, then a quantitative analysis, if necessary. In a quantitative analysis, we incorporate various estimates, including estimated future cash flows, asset hold periods and discount rates, as well as estimates of the probabilities of various scenarios occurring. If the entity is a VIE, we then determine whether we consolidate the entity as the primary beneficiary. We determine whether an entity is a VIE and, if so, whether it should be consolidated by utilizing judgments and estimates that are inherently subjective. If we made different judgments or utilized different estimates in these evaluations, it could result in differing conclusions as to whether or not an entity is a VIE and whether or not to consolidate such entity. Our investments in unconsolidated entities in which we have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies, but do not control, or entities which are variable interest entities in which we are not the primary beneficiary are accounted for under the equity method.

We carry our investment in the Reading International Trust I using the equity method of accounting because we have the ability to exercise significant influence (but not control) over operating and financial policies of the entity. We eliminate transactions with an equity method entity to the extent of our ownership in such an entity. Accordingly, our share of net income (loss) of this equity method entity is included in consolidated net income (loss). We have no implicit or explicit obligation to further fund our investment in Reading International Trust I.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets

We use the purchase method of accounting for all business combinations. Goodwill and intangible assets with indefinite useful lives are not amortized, but instead, tested for impairment at least annually. Prior to conducting our goodwill impairment analysis, we assess long-lived assets for impairment in accordance with FASB ASC 360-15 - Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (“ASC 360-15”). We then perform the impairment analysis at the reporting unit level (one level below the operating segment level) (see Note 10 – Goodwill and Intangibles) as defined by FASB ASC 350-35 – Goodwill Subsequent Measurement (“ASC 350-35”). This analysis requires management to make a series of critical assumptions to: (1) evaluate whether any impairment exists; and (2) measure the amount of impairment. We estimate the fair value of our reporting units as compared with their current book value. If the estimated fair value of a reporting unit is less than the book value, then impairment is deemed to have occurred. In estimating the fair value of our reporting units, we primarily use the income approach (which uses forecasted, discounted cash flows to estimate the fair value of the reporting unit). For the year ended December 31, 2010, in accordance with the sale agreement of Consolidated Entertainment, the initial aggregate purchase price of the cinemas was adjusted down by $16.9 million resulting in a corresponding decrease in goodwill associated with the purchased cinemas. No further adjustments are anticipated for this transaction. The resulting net goodwill balance associated with this transaction is $1.7 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011.

Discontinued Operations and Properties Held for Sale

In accordance with ASC 360-15, the revenue, expenses and net gain on dispositions of operating properties and the revenue and expenses on properties classified as held for sale are reported in the consolidated statements of operations as discontinued operations for all periods presented through the date of the respective disposition. The net gain (loss) on disposition is included in the period the property is sold. In determining whether the income and loss and net gain on dispositions of operating properties is reported as discontinued operations, we evaluate whether we have any significant continuing involvement in the operations, leasing or management of the sold property in accordance with FASB ASC 205-20 – Presentation of Financial Statements – Discontinued Operations (“ASC 205-20”). If we were to determine that there was any significant continuing involvement, the income and loss and net gain on dispositions of the operating property would not be recorded in discontinued operations.

A property is classified as held for sale when certain criteria, as set forth under ASC 360-15, are met. At such time, we present the respective assets and liabilities related to the property held for sale separately on the balance sheet and cease to record depreciation and amortization expense. Properties held for sale are reported at the lower of their carrying value or their estimated fair value less the estimated costs to sell. For a description of the properties previously held for sale see Note 9 – Transfer of Held for Sale Real Estate to Continuing Operations and Related Items. These asset transfers from held for sale to operating resulted in a reclassification of their operating results which is reflected in our December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010 Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Revenue Recognition

Revenue from cinema ticket sales and concession sales are recognized when sold. Revenue from gift certificate sales is deferred and recognized when the certificates are redeemed. Rental revenue is recognized on a straight-line basis in accordance with FASB ASC 840-20-25 – Leases Having Both Scheduled Rent Increases and Contingent Rents (“ASC 840-20-25”).

Deferred Leasing/Financing Costs

Direct costs incurred in connection with obtaining tenants and/or financing are amortized over the respective term of the lease or loan on a straight-line basis. Direct costs incurred in connection with financing are amortized over the respective term of the loan utilizing the effective interest method, or straight-line method if the result is not materially different. In addition, interest on loans with increasing interest rates and scheduled principal pre-payments are also recognized on the effective interest method.

Advertising Expense

We expense our advertising as incurred. The amount of our advertising expense was $3.8 million, $3.8 million, and $3.8 million for the years ended December 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively.

Other Income/Expense

For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, we recorded gains/(losses) on the settlement of litigation of ($194,000), $0, and ($808,000), respectively, included in other income (expense).

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization are provided using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The estimated useful lives are generally as follows:


Building and improvements	15-40 years
Leasehold improvement	Shorter of the life of the lease or useful life of the improvement
Theater equipment	7 years
Furniture and fixtures	5 – 10 years

Translation of Non-U.S. Currency Amounts

The financial statements and transactions of our Australian and New Zealand cinema and real estate operations are reported in their functional currencies, namely Australian and New Zealand dollars, respectively, and are then translated into U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities of these operations are denominated in their functional currencies and are then translated at exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. Revenue and expenses are translated at the average exchange rate for the reporting period. Translation adjustments are reported in “Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income,” a component of Stockholders’ Equity.

The carrying value of our Australian and New Zealand assets fluctuates due to changes in the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and the Australian and New Zealand dollars. The exchange rates of the U.S. dollar to the Australian dollar were $1.0393 and $1.0251 as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The exchange rates of the U.S. dollar to the New Zealand dollar were $0.8267 and $0.7805 as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes under FASB ASC 740-10 – Income Taxes (“ASC 740-10”), which prescribes an asset and liability approach. Under the asset and liability method, deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and the respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. Income tax expense (benefit) is the tax payable (refundable) for the period and the change during the period in deferred tax assets and liabilities.

In evaluating our ability to recover our deferred tax assets within the jurisdiction from which they arise we consider all available positive and negative evidence, including scheduled reversals of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, tax planning strategies and recent financial operations. In projecting future taxable income, we begin with historical results adjusted for the results of discontinued operations and changes in accounting policies. We then include assumptions about the amount of projected future state, federal and foreign pretax operating income, the reversal of temporary differences, and the implementation of feasible and prudent tax planning strategies. These assumptions require significant judgment about the forecasts of future taxable income and are consistent with the plans and estimates we use to manage the underlying businesses. In evaluating the objective evidence that historical results provide, we consider three years of cumulative operating income (loss). In the event we were to determine that we would be able to realize our deferred income tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, we would make an adjustment to the valuation allowance, which would reduce the provision for income taxes.

ASC 740-10 provides that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, based on the technical merits.

We recognize tax liabilities in accordance with ASC 740-10 and we adjust these liabilities when our judgment changes as a result of the evaluation of new information not previously available. Due to the complexity of some of these uncertainties, the ultimate resolution may result in a payment that is materially different from our current estimate of the tax liabilities. These differences will be reflected as increases or decreases to income tax expense in the period in which they are determined.

Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share is calculated using the weighted average number of shares of Class A and Class B Stock outstanding during the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively. Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing net earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted average common shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of stock options and unvested restricted stock. We had issued stock options to purchase 672,350, 622,350, and 622,350 shares of Class A Common Stock at December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively, at a weighted average exercise price of $6.24, $5.65, and $5.65 per share, respectively. Stock options to purchase 185,100, 185,100, and 185,100 shares of Class B Common Stock were outstanding at the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively, at a weighted average exercise price of $9.90, $9.90, and $9.90 per share, respectively. In accordance with FASB ASC 260-10 – Earnings Per Share (“ASC 260-10”), for any years that we record losses from continuing operations before discontinued operations, the effect of the stock options and restricted stock are anti-dilutive and accordingly excluded from the diluted earnings per share computation (see Note 4 – Earnings (Loss) Per Share).

Real Estate Purchase Price Allocation

We allocate the purchase price to tangible assets of an acquired property (which includes land, building and tenant improvements) based on the estimated fair values of those tangible assets assuming the building was vacant. Estimates of fair value for land are based on factors such as comparisons to other properties sold in the same geographic area adjusted for unique characteristics. Estimates of fair values of buildings and tenant improvements are based on present values determined based upon the application of hypothetical leases with market rates and terms.

We record above-market and below-market in-place lease values for acquired properties based on the present value (using an interest rate which reflects the risks associated with the leases acquired) of the difference between (i) the contractual amounts to be paid pursuant to the in-place leases and (ii) management’s estimate of fair market lease rates for the corresponding in-place leases, measured over a period equal to the remaining non-cancelable term of the lease. We amortize any capitalized above-market lease values as a reduction of rental income over the remaining non-cancelable terms of the respective leases. We amortize any capitalized below-market lease values as an increase to rental income over the initial term and any fixed-rate renewal periods in the respective leases.

We measure the aggregate value of other intangible assets acquired based on the difference between (i) the property valued with existing in-place leases adjusted to market rental rates and (ii) the property valued as if vacant. Management’s estimates of value are made using methods similar to those used by independent appraisers (e.g., discounted cash flow analysis). Factors considered by management in its analysis include an estimate of carrying costs during hypothetical expected lease-up periods considering current market conditions, and costs to execute similar leases. We also consider information obtained about each property as a result of our pre-acquisition due diligence, marketing, and leasing activities in estimating the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets acquired. In estimating carrying costs, management includes real estate taxes, insurance and other operating expenses and estimates of lost rentals at market rates during the expected lease-up periods. Management also estimates costs to execute similar leases including leasing commissions, legal, and other related expenses to the extent that such costs are not already incurred in connection with a new lease origination as part of the transaction.

The total amount of other intangible assets acquired is further allocated to in-place lease values and customer relationship intangible values based on management’s evaluation of the specific characteristics of each tenant’s lease and our overall relationship with that respective tenant. Characteristics considered by management in allocating these values include the nature and extent of our existing business relationships with the tenant, growth prospects for developing new business with the tenant, the tenant’s credit quality and expectations of lease renewals (including those existing under the terms of the lease agreement), among other factors.

We amortize the value of in-place leases to expense over the initial term of the respective leases. The value of customer relationship intangibles is amortized to expense over the initial term and any renewal periods in the respective leases, but in no event may the amortization period for intangible assets exceed the remaining depreciable life of the building. Should a tenant terminate its lease, the unamortized portion of the in-place lease value and customer relationship intangibles would be charged to expense.

These assessments have a direct impact on revenue and net income. If we assign more fair value to the in-place leases versus buildings and tenant improvements, assigned costs would generally be depreciated over a shorter period, resulting in more depreciation expense and a lower net income on an annual basis. Likewise, if we estimate that more of our leases in-place at acquisition are on terms believed to be above the current market rates for similar properties, the calculated present value of the amount above market would be amortized monthly as a direct reduction to rental revenue and ultimately reduce the amount of net income.

Business Acquisition Valuations

The assets and liabilities of businesses acquired are recorded at their respective preliminary fair values as of the acquisition date in accordance with FASB ASC 805-10 – Business Combinations (“ASC 805-10”). Upon the acquisition of real properties, we allocate the purchase price of such properties to acquired tangible assets, consisting of land and building, and identified intangible assets and liabilities, consisting of the value of above market and below market leases and the value of in-place leases, based in each case on their fair values. We use independent appraisals to assist in the determination of the fair values of the tangible assets of an acquired property (which includes land and building). We also perform valuations and physical counts of property, plant and equipment, valuations of investments and the involuntary termination of employees, as necessary. Costs in excess of the net fair values of assets and liabilities acquired are recorded as goodwill.

We record and amortize above-market and below-market operating leases assumed in the acquisition of a business in the same way as those under real estate acquisitions.

The fair values of any other intangible assets acquired are based on the expected discounted cash flows of the identified intangible assets. Finite-lived intangible assets are amortized using the straight-line method of amortization over the expected period in which those assets are expected to contribute to our future cash flows. We do not amortize indefinite lived intangibles and goodwill.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

FASB ASC 820-10 – Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820-10”) defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in GAAP and provides for expanded disclosure about fair value measurements. ASC 820-10 applies to all other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements.

The fair value of our financial assets and liabilities are disclosed in Note 16 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments to our consolidated financial statements. We generally determine or calculate the fair value of financial instruments using quoted market prices in active markets when such information is available or using appropriate present value or other valuation techniques, such as discounted cash flow analyses, incorporating available market discount rate information for similar types of instruments while estimating for non-performance and liquidity risk. These techniques are significantly affected by the assumptions used, including the discount rate, credit spreads, and estimates of future cash flow.

The financial assets and liabilities recorded at fair value in our consolidated financial statements are marketable securities and interest rate swaps/cap. The carrying amounts of our cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash and accounts payable approximate fair value due to their short-term maturities. The remaining financial assets and liabilities that are only disclosed at fair value are comprised of notes payable, TPS, and other debt instruments. We estimated the fair value of our secured mortgage notes payable, our unsecured notes payable, TPS 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 an 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.

Assets and liabilities typically recorded at fair value on a non-recurring basis to which ASC 820-10 applies include:

·	Non-financial assets and liabilities initially measured at fair value in an acquisition or business combination;

·	Long-lived assets measured at fair value due to an impairment assessment under ASC 360-15; and

·	Asset retirement obligations initially measured under FASB ASC 410-20 – Asset Retirement Obligations (“ASC 410-20”).

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted During 2012

FASB ASU No. 2011-05 - Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income

ASU No. 2011-05 requires that all non-owner changes in stockholders’ equity be presented either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements, eliminating the option to present other comprehensive income in the statement of changes in equity. Under either choice, items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income are required to be presented on the face of the financial statements where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. This amendment is effective for our Company in 2012 and was applied retrospectively.

FASB ASU No. 2011-08 - Intangibles—Goodwill and Other

ASU No. 2011-08 relates to a change in the annual test of goodwill for impairment. The statement permits an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the two-step goodwill impairment test described in Topic 350. This amendment is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. For our goodwill impairment testing, at least for now, we have continued to use a quantitative approach.

New Accounting Pronouncements

No new pronouncements were made pertaining to our Company’s accounting during the year ended December 31, 2012.

Stock-Based Compensation And Employee Stock Option Plan [Abstract]

Stock Based Compensation And Employee Stock Option Plan

Note 3 – Stock Based Compensation and Employee Stock Option Plan

Stock Based Compensation

As part of his compensation package, Mr. James J. Cotter, our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, was granted $950,000, $750,000, and $750,000, respectively, of restricted class A non-voting common stock (“Class A Stock”) for each of the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively. The 2012, 2011, and 2010 stock grants of 217,890, 155,925, and 174,825 shares, respectively, were granted with stock grant prices of $4.36, $4.81, and $4.29, respectively. Mr. Cotter’s stock compensation is granted fully vested with a five-year restriction on sale. As of December 31, 2012, the 2012 stock grant had not yet been issued to Mr. Cotter. During 2012, we issued to Mr. Cotter 155,925 of Class A Stock for his 2011 vested stock grants which had a stock grant price of $4.81 and a grant date fair value of $750,000.

During 2012, we issued 9,680 shares as a one-time stock grant of Class A Nonvoting shares to our employees valued at $44,000. During 2010, as part of Mr. John Hunter’s, our Chief Operating Officer, compensation package, $100,000 of restricted Class A Stock vested relating to Mr. Hunter’s 2009 and 2008 stock grants. During 2010, we issued to Mr. Hunter 5,154 shares related to his 2009 vested stock compensation.

During the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, we recorded compensation expense of $994,000, $750,000, and $754,000, respectively, for the vesting of all our restricted stock grants. The following table details the grants and vesting of restricted stock to our employees (dollars in thousands):



	Non-Vested Restricted Stock		Weighted Average Fair Value at Grant Date
Outstanding – January 1, 2010	--	$	--
Granted	174,825		750
Vested	(174,825)		(750)
Outstanding – December 31, 2010	--	$	--
Granted	155,925		750
Vested	(155,925)		(750)
Outstanding – December 31, 2011	--	$	--
Granted	227,570		994
Vested	(227,570)		(994)
Outstanding – December 31, 2012	--	$	--

On April 1, 2010, we terminated our then existing contractual relationship with Doug Osborne, at that time the chief executive officer of our Landplan real estate operations. Mr. Osborne’s incentive interest in our various Landplan projects, which was valued at $0, was revoked at that time. Mr. Osborne continues to provide services to us on a non-exclusive independent contractor basis.

Employee 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. 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. For the stock options exercised during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2010, we issued 95,000 and 90,000 shares of Class A Stock for cash to employees of the corporation under this stock based compensation plan at exercise prices of $4.68 and $2.76, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2011, we did not issue any shares under this stock based compensation plan.

FASB ASC 718-10 – Stock Compensation (“ASC 718-10”) requires that all stock-based compensation be recognized as an expense in the financial statements and that such costs be measured at the fair value of the award. We estimate the valuation of stock based compensation using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model.

When our tax deduction from an option exercise exceeds the compensation cost resulting from the option, a tax benefit is created. ASC 718-10 requires that excess tax benefits related to stock option exercises be reflected as financing cash inflows instead of operating cash inflows. For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, there was no impact to the consolidated statements of cash flows because there were no recognized tax benefits during these periods.

ASC 718-10 requires companies to estimate forfeitures. Based on our historical experience, we did not estimate any forfeitures for the options granted during the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010.

In accordance with ASC 718-10, 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. The dividend yield is excluded from the calculation, as it is our present intention to retain all earnings. We estimated the expected stock price volatility based on our historical price volatility measured using daily share prices back to the inception of the Company in its current form beginning on December 31, 2001. We estimate the expected option life based on our historical share option exercise experience during this same period. We expense the estimated grant date fair values of options issued on a straight-line basis over their vesting periods.

No options were granted during 2011. For the 206,000 and 157,700 options granted during 2012 and 2010, respectively, we estimated the fair value of these options at the date of grant using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted average assumptions:



	2012	2010
Stock option exercise price	$5.94	$5.17
Risk-free interest rate	1.71%	2.74%
Expected dividend yield	--	--
Expected option life	7.20 yrs	7.23 yrs
Expected volatility	32.15%	33.01%
Weighted average fair value	$2.62	$1.88

Using the above assumptions and based on our use of the modified prospective method, we recorded $285,000, $189,000, and $67,000 in compensation expense for the total estimated grant date fair value of stock options that vested during the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively. At December 31, 2012 total unrecognized estimated compensation cost related to non-vested stock options granted was $342,000 which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average vesting period of 2.38.

No options were exercised in 2011. The total realized value of stock options exercised during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2010 was $136,000 and $138,000, respectively. The grant date fair value of options that vested during the years ending December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010 was $285,000, $189,000, and $67,000, respectively. We recorded cash received from stock options exercised of $308,000 and $248,000 during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2010, respectively. Additionally, in 2012, 41,000 options were exercised having a realized value of $103,000 for which we did not receive any cash but the employee elected to receive the net incremental number of in-the-money shares of 15,822 based on an exercise price of $4.01 and a market price of $6.53. At December 31, 2012, the intrinsic, unrealized value of all options outstanding, vested and expected to vest, was $509,000 of which 100.0% were 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 Stock and class B voting common stock authorized for issuance under our 2010 Stock Option Plan is 1,250,000. At the time that options are exercised, at the discretion of management, we will either issue treasury shares or make a new issuance of shares to the employee or board member. Dependent on the grant letter to the employee or board member, the required service period for option vesting is between zero and four years.

We had the following stock options outstanding and exercisable:



			Weighted							Weighted Average
	Common Stock		Average Exercise				Common Stock			Price of
	Options		Price of Options				Exercisable			Exercisable
	Outstanding		Outstanding				Options			Options
	Class A	Class B	Class A		Class B		Class A	Class B	Class A		Class B

The weighted average remaining contractual life of all options outstanding, vested and expected to vest, at December 31, 2012 and 2011 were approximately 5.32 and 4.13 years, respectively. The weighted average remaining contractual life of the exercisable options outstanding at December 31, 2012 and 2011 was approximately 4.28 and 3.85 years, respectively.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share [Abstract]

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Note 4 – Earnings (Loss) Per Share

For the three years ended December 31, 2012, we calculated the following earnings (loss) per share (dollars in thousands, except per share amounts):



		2012		2011		2010
Income (loss) from continuing operations	$	(509)	$	8,068	$	(12,747)
Income (loss) from discontinued operations		(405)		1,888		97
Net income (loss) attributable to Reading International, Inc. common shareholders		(914)		9,956		(12,650)
Basic income (loss) per common share attributable to Reading International, Inc. shareholders:
Earnings (loss) from continuing operations	$	(0.02)	$	0.36	$	(0.56)
Earnings (loss) from discontinued operations, net		(0.02)		0.08		--
Basic income (loss) per share attributable to Reading International, Inc. shareholders	$	(0.04)	$	0.44	$	(0.56)
Diluted income (loss) per common share attributable to Reading International, Inc. shareholders:
Earnings (loss) from continuing operations	$	(0.02)	$	0.35	$	(0.56)
Earnings (loss) from discontinued operations, net		(0.02)		0.08		--
Diluted income (loss) per share attributable to Reading International, Inc. shareholders	$	(0.04)	$	0.43	$	(0.56)
Weighted average shares of common stock – basic		23,028,596		22,764,666		22,781,392
Weighted average shares of common stock – diluted		23,028,596		22,993,135		22,781,392

For the year ended December 31, 2011, the weighted average common stock – dilutive included 228,469 of incremental shares of exercisable in-the-money stock options and unissued restricted Class A Stock. For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2010, we recorded losses from continuing operations. As such, the 284,054 and 235,517, respectively, of incremental shares of exercisable in-the-money stock options and unissued restricted Class A Stock were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share because they were anti-dilutive in those periods. In addition, 791,286, 734,906, and 746,758 of out-of-the-money stock options were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings (loss) per share for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively. The total number of in-the-money stock options, out-of-the-money stock options, and unissued restricted Class A Stock that could potentially dilute basic earnings per share was 1,075,340, 963,375, and 982,275 for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, respectively.

During the year-ended December 31, 2009, we decided to curtail our current development progress on certain Australian and New Zealand land development projects. As a result, we did not capitalize interest on these projects during 2012, 2011, and 2010 and we will not capitalize interest for these projects until development work recommences.

Coachella, California Land

Based on a December 2012 appraisal of the property, the fair value of the property was $4.0 million resulting in a $1.5 million impairment to the carrying value of the asset. As noted below, this property is 50% owned by Mr. James J. Cotter who shares in any impairment loss to the extent of his ownership interest.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for long-lived, physical assets that are used in the normal conduct of business to produce goods and services and not intended for resale.

2012 Transactions

Indooroopilly - Sale

On November 20, 2012, we sold our Indooroopilly property for $12.4 million (AUS$12.0 million). As its book value at the time of sale was $12.5 million (AUS$12.1 million), we recorded a loss on sale in the form of an impairment expense of $318,000 (AUS$306,000) for the year ended December 31, 2012 which included the cost to sell the property. The net book value of this property’s assets is included in assets held for sale on our Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2011 and the operational results are included in income (loss) from discontinued operations on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the three years ended December 31, 2012. The condensed statement of operations for Indooroopilly is as follows (dollars in thousands):

Taringa - Sale

On February 21, 2012, we sold our three properties of approximately 1.1 acres in the Taringa area of Brisbane, Australia for $1.9 million (AUS$1.8 million). Because the net carrying amounts of these properties were greater than the total sale price, we recorded an impairment expense for these properties of $369,000 (AUS$365,000) for the year ended December 31, 2011.

Coachella, California Land - Acquisition

On January 10, 2012, Shadow View Land and Farming, LLC, a limited liability company owned by our Company, acquired a 202-acre property, zoned for the development of up to 843 single-family residential units, located in the City of Coachella, California. The property was acquired at a foreclosure auction for $5.5 million. The property was acquired as a long-term investment in developable land. Half of the funds used to acquire the land were provided by Mr. James J. Cotter, our Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and controlling shareholder. Upon the approval of our Conflicts Committee, these funds were converted on January 18, 2012 into a 50% interest in Shadow View Land and Farming, LLC. We are the managing member of this company. See Note 20 – Noncontrolling Interests.

2011 Transactions

Cal Oaks Cinema - Acquisition

On August 25, 2011, we purchased a 17-screen multiplex in Murrieta, California (the “CalOaks Cinema”) for $4.2 million made up of $3.9 million of cash and a $250,000 holdback note for certain offset charges to the purchase price (see Note 12 – Notes Payable).

On May 15, 2011, in conjunction with the contemplated purchase of the CalOaks cinema, we lent $2.3 million to the owner of the CalOaks cinema in exchange for a 90-day note receivable. The note was secured by three cinemas’ leases and had an annualized interest of 9.9%. On August 25, 2011, as part of the CalOaks cinema acquisition, this note was repaid.

Elsternwick Classic Cinema - Sale

On April 14, 2011, we sold our 66.7% share of the 5-screen Elsternwick Classic cinema located in Melbourne, Australia to our joint venture partner 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).

2010 Transactions

Manukau Land - Acquisition

Transfer Of Held For Sale Real Estate To Continuing Operations And Related Items	Note 9 – Transfer of Held for Sale Real Estate to Continuing Operations and Related Items 2011 Transactions Lake Taupo Motel During the fourth quarter of 2010, we listed for sale the residential units of our Lake Taupo property and the adjoining 1.0-acre parcel located in Lake Taupo, New Zealand. A portion of this property was previously improved with a motel in which we recently renovated the property’s units to be condominiums and have enhanced the property value with residential apartment entitlements for the adjoining vacant land. At December 31, 2011, we had not yet sold the property. Pursuant to ASC 360-10-45, as twelve months had passed since this announcement and we did not meet the criteria to classify this property as held for sale, we reclassified $5,000 of income from discontinued operations to the components of income from continuing operations for the year ended December 31, 2010. As a result of the transfer of the asset from held for sale to continuing operations, we recorded a loss for 2011 of $37,000 (NZ$48,000) to measure the property at the lower of its carrying amount, adjusted for depreciation and amortization expense that would have been recognized had the asset been continuously classified as a continuing operational asset, or its fair value at the date of the decision not to sell. We continue to discuss with potential buyers and plan to monetize the property in time. Burwood Development Property 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 did not meet the criteria to classify this property as held for sale, we reclassified the current carrying value of this property of $53.4 million (AUS$52.1 million) from assets held for sale to investment and development property on our December 31, 2011 consolidated balance sheet. We continue to evaluate our options concerning this property. 2012 and 2010 Transactions There were no transfers of held for sale real estate to continuing operations or related items in 2012 or 2010.

Goodwill And Intangible Assets

Note 10 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets

Goodwill associated with our business combinations is tested for impairment at the beginning of the fourth quarter with continued evaluation through the end of the fourth quarter of every year. The fair value estimates of each of our reporting units is based on the projected profits and cash flows of the related assets using each reporting unit’s weighted average cost of capital as a discount rate. As a result of this test, whereby the Step 1 Test was passed for all reporting units, it was determined that there is no impairment to our goodwill as of December 31, 2012 or 2011.

At December 31, 2012 or 2011, our goodwill consisted of the following (dollars in thousands):



2012		Cinema		Real Estate		Total

We amortize our beneficial leases over the lease period, the longest of which is approximately 30 years; our trade name using an accelerated amortization method over its estimated useful life of 45 years; and our option fee and other intangible assets over 10 years. For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, our amortization expense was $2.2 million, $2.4 million, and $2.6 million, respectively.

Rialto Distribution

Effective October 1, 2005, we purchased for $694,000 (NZ$1.0 million) a 33.3% interest in Rialto Distribution. Rialto Distribution, an unconsolidated joint venture, is engaged in the business of distributing art film in New Zealand and Australia. We own an undivided 33.3% interest in the assets and liabilities of the joint venture. Prior to January 1, 2010, we treated our interest as an equity method interest in an unconsolidated joint venture. However, during 2009, the reporting company of Rialto Distribution reported a net loss of $2.2 million (NZ$3.2 million). Our share of this loss was $734,000 (NZ$1.1 million). Due to this significant loss, we determined that the goodwill associated with Rialto Distribution’s investment in the film distribution business was fully impaired. Therefore, we recorded our share of the impairment loss of $331,000 (NZ$434,000) as a part of our equity losses resulting in a net zero balance at December 31, 2009. As of January 1, 2010, we treat our interest as a cost method interest in an unconsolidated joint venture. For the years ended December 31, 2012 2011, and 2010 we received $199,000 (NZ$245,000), $383,000 (NZ$500,000), and $286,000 (NZ$400,000), respectively, in distributions from our interest in Rialto Distribution which we recorded as earnings at the time of receipt.

Rialto Cinemas

Effective October 1, 2005, we purchased, indirectly, a beneficial ownership of 100% of the stock of Rialto Entertainment for $4.8 million (NZ$6.9 million). Rialto Entertainment was at the time of purchase a 50% joint venture partner with Village and Sky in Rialto Cinemas, the largest art cinema circuit in New Zealand. The Village and Sky ownership interest have subsequently been sold to Greater Union, an Australian based cinema chain operator. We own an undivided 50% interest in the assets and liabilities of the joint venture and treat our interest as an equity method interest in an unconsolidated joint venture. Subsequent to the February 22, 2011 earthquake in Christchurch, the joint venture obtained a termination agreement with the landlord associated with the Christchurch cinema lease (see Note 26 – Casualty Loss). As of December 31, 2012, following the closure of three cinemas with 15 screens, the joint venture owned two cinemas with 13 screens in the New Zealand cities of Auckland and Dunedin. As part of our investment impairment analysis for 2011, we determined that the value of our investment was impaired. For this reason, we recorded an impairment charge to our investment in Rialto Cinemas of $2.9 million (NZ$3.8 million) during December 31, 2011 and included it in our equity loss from unconsolidated joint ventures and entities for the year ended December 31, 2011.

205-209 East 57th Street Associates, LLC

We own a non-managing 25% membership interest in 205-209 East 57th Street Associates, LLC a limited liability company formed to redevelop our former cinema site at 205 East 57th Street in Manhattan.

During the fourth quarter of 2010, the last residential condominium was sold for $900,000 from which we recorded earnings of $64,000 and received distributions totaling $293,000. During 2012, as a consequence of a purchaser’s dispute, a condominium which was previously sold was repurchased, renovated, and resold for a small gain resulting in additional earnings to us of $27,000.

Mt. Gravatt

We own an undivided 33.3% interest in Mt. Gravatt, an unincorporated joint venture that owns and operates a 16-screen multiplex cinema in Australia. The condensed balance sheets and statements of operations of Mt. Gravatt are as follows (dollars in thousands):

Malulani Investments, Limited

On June 26, 2006, we acquired for $1.8 million, an 18.4% interest in a private real estate company. On July 2, 2009, Magoon Acquisition and Development, LLC (“Magoon LLC”) and we entered into a settlement agreement (the “Settlement Terms”) with respect to a lawsuit against certain officers and directors of Malulani Investments, Limited (“MIL”). Under the Settlement Terms, Magoon LLC and we received $2.5 million in cash, a $6.8 million three-year 6.25% secured promissory note issued by The Malulani Group (“TMG”), and a ten-year “tail interest” in MIL and TMG in exchange for the transfer of all ownership interests in MIL and TMG held by both Magoon, LLC and RDI and for the release of all claims against the defendants in this matter. A gain on the transfer of our ownership interest in MIL of $268,000 was recognized during 2009 as a result of this transaction. The tail interest allows us to participate in certain distributions made or received by MIL, TMG, and in certain cases, the shareholders of TMG. The tail interest, however, continues only for a period of ten years and we cannot assure that we will receive any distributions from this tail interest. During 2011 and 2010, we received $191,000 and $635,000 in interest on the promissory note and, on June 14, 2011, we received $6.8 million with respect to the principal and interest owed on this note. We believe that further amounts are owed under the note and we have begun litigation to collect such amounts. Any further collections will be recognized when received.

Berkeley Cinemas – Botany

We previously had investments in three joint ventures with Everard Entertainment Ltd in New Zealand. On June 6, 2008, we sold our last investment in these joint ventures of the Botany Downs Cinema to our joint venture partner. During 2010, we finalized our claims regarding the sale of this cinema resulting in an additional gain on sale of $384,000 (NZ$554,000) for the year ended 2010 included in other income (expense) on our Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Trust Preferred Securities

On February 5, 2007, we issued $51.5 million in 20-year fully subordinated notes to a trust that we control, which in turn issued $51.5 million in securities. Of the $51.5 million, $50.0 million in TPS were issued to unrelated investors in a private placement and $1.5 million of common trust securities were issued by the trust to Reading called “Investment in Reading International Trust I” on our balance sheet. Effective May 1, 2012, the interest rate on our Trust Preferred Securities changed from a fixed rate of 9.22%, which was in effect for the past five years, to a variable rate of three month LIBOR plus 4.00%, which will reset each quarter through the end of the loan unless we exercise our right to refix the rate at the current market rate at that time. There are no principal payments due until maturity in 2027 when the notes and the trust securities are scheduled to be paid in full. We may pay off the debt after the first five years at 100% of the principal amount without any penalty. The trust is essentially a pass through, and the transaction is accounted for on our books as the issuance of fully subordinated notes. The credit facility includes a number of affirmative and negative covenants designed to monitor our ability to service the debt. The most restrictive covenant of the facility requires that we must maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio at a certain level. However, on December 31, 2008, we secured a waiver of all financial covenants with respect to our TPS for a period of nine years (through December 31, 2017), in consideration of the payment of $1.6 million, consisting of an initial payment of $1.1 million, a payment of $270,000 made in December 2011, and a contractual obligation to pay $270,000 in December 2014.

The private placement generated $49.9 million in net proceeds, which were used principally to make our investment in the common trust securities of $1.5 million, to retire all of our bank indebtedness in New Zealand of $34.4 million (NZ$50.0 million) and to retire a portion of our bank indebtedness in Australia of $5.8 million (AUS$7.4 million). During the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, we paid $1.9 million, $2.5 million, and $2.5 million, respectively, in preferred dividends to the unrelated investors that are included in interest expense. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, we had preferred dividends payable of $198,000 and $416,000, respectively. Interest payments for this loan are required every three months.

During the first quarter of 2009, we took advantage of the then current market illiquidity for securities such as our TPS to repurchase $22.9 million in face value of those securities through an exchange of $11.5 million worth of marketable securities purchased during the period for the express purpose of executing this exchange transaction with the third party holder of these TPS. During the twelve months ended 2009, we amortized $106,000 of discount to interest income associated with the holding of these securities prior to their extinguishment. On April 30, 2009, we extinguished $22.9 million of these TPS, which resulted in a gain on retirement of subordinated debt (TPS) of $10.7 million net of loss on the associated write-off of deferred loan costs of $749,000 and a reduction in our Investment in Reading International Trust I from $1.5 million to $838,000.

Australia

NAB Australian Corporate Term Loan

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 off 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 comprised of a term loan with a December 31, 2012 balance of $75.3 million (AUS$72.5 million); a $10.4 million (AUS$10.0 million) revolving facility for which we do not have a balance at December 31, 2012; and a $5.2 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. This credit facility is secured by substantially all of our cinema assets in Australia and is only guaranteed by several of our wholly owned Australian subsidiaries. The NAB Credit Facility requires annual principal payments of between $7.3 million (AUS$7.0 million) and $9.4 million (AUS$9.0 million) which we anticipate 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 transfer only $4.2 million (AUS$4.0 million) per year outside of Australia. On August 2, 2011, we paid down our NAB revolver by $9.7 million (AUS$9.0 million) resulting in a zero balance on that date. In December 2012, as part of the sale of our Indooroopilly property, we paid down $6.3 million (AUS$6.0 million) on our NAB term loan.

In conjunction with this NAB Credit Facility, we entered into a five-year interest swap agreement which swaps over 100% of our $75.3 million (AUS$72.5 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 13 – Derivative Instruments.

Australian Shopping Center Loans

In July 2004, as part of the acquisition of the Anderson Cinema Circuit, we assumed the three loans on the Epping, Rhodes, and West Lakes properties. The total amount assumed on the transaction date was $1.5 million (AUS$2.1 million) and the loans carry no interest as long as we make timely principal payments of approximately $182,000 (AUS$175,000) per year. Early repayment is possible without penalty. The only recourse on default of these loans is the security on the properties. During 2009 and 2010, we were in dispute with the landlord. During 2010, we resolved the dispute and paid $51,000 (AUS$51,000) in principal payments on this loan. During 2011 and 2012, we paid $256,000 (AUS$250,000) and $182,000 (AUS$175,000), respectively, in principal payments on this loan.

New Zealand

New Zealand Corporate Credit Facility

On February 8, 2012, we received an approved amendment from Westpac renewing our existing $36.9 million (NZ$45.0 million) New Zealand credit facility with a 3-year credit facility. The renewed facility calls for a decrease in the overall facility by $4.1 million ($5.0 million) to $32.8 million (NZ$40.0 million), an increase in the facility margin of 0.55% to 2.00%, and the line of credit charge increase from 0.30% to 0.40%. The facility is secured by substantially all of our New Zealand assets, but has not been guaranteed by any entity other than several of our New Zealand subsidiaries. The facility includes various affirmative and negative financial covenants designed to protect the bank’s security regarding capital expenditures and the repatriation of funds out of New Zealand. Also included in the restrictive covenants of the facility is the restriction of transferring funds from subsidiary to parent.

Bank of America Revolver

On October 31, 2012, we replaced our GE Capital Term Loan of $27.7 million with a new credit facility from Bank of America (the “BofA Revolver”) of $30.0 million with an interest rate of between 2.50% and 3.00% above LIBOR and an expiration date of October 31, 2017. Although the BofA Revolver does not require a fixed interest swap agreement, we will continue to use our existing fixed interest rate swap of $29.1 million until its term date of December 31, 2013, see Note 13 – Derivative Instruments. The BofA Revolver requires borrowing limit reductions of $3.0 million per year with a balloon payment of $18.0 million at the expiration date. The BofA Revolver contains other customary terms and conditions, including representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, events of default and indemnity provisions. The most restrictive covenant of the facility requires that we must maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio at a certain level.

As part of the negotiations of the BofA Revolver, we entered into a master operating equipment lease financing agreement with Banc of America Leasing & Capital, LLC to finance the acquisition of up to $15.5 million in digital projection equipment for our U.S. cinema operations. See Note 19 - Commitments and Contingencies.

Bank of America Line of Credit

On October 31, 2012, Bank of America renewed and increased our existing $3.0 million line of credit to $5.0 million. The LOC carries an interest rate equal to BBA LIBOR floating plus a 3.50% margin and an unused line fee of 0.03%. The agreement is in effect till October 31, 2017 and is potentially renewable at that date. The undrawn balance of this LOC is $3.0 million at December 31, 2012.

Cinemas 1, 2, 3 Term Loan

On June 28, 2012, Sutton Hill Properties LLC (“SHP”), one of our consolidated subsidiaries, paid off its Eurohypo AG, New York Branch loan with a new $15.0 million term loan (the “Sovereign Bank Loan”) from Sovereign Bank, N.A. The Sovereign Bank Loan has a one-year term ending on June 27, 2013, with a one year extension option to June 26, 2014 subject to an extension fee equal to 1.00% of the ending principal balance and a compliance requirement with certain special covenants. As we currently intend to exercise this option, we have classified this loan as long-term. The terms of the loan require interest only payments at LIBOR plus a 5.00% margin to be calculated and paid monthly. This loan is secured by SHP’s interest in the Cinemas 1, 2, & 3 land and building. Covenants include maintaining a loan to value ratio of at least 50% of fair market value and an 11% debt yield (with a numerator of the cash available for debt service and a denominator of the outstanding principal balance of the loan). The Sovereign Bank Loan is further secured by a guaranty provided by Reading International, Inc. and by its noncontrolling interest member, Sutton Hill Capital, LLC.

Liberty Theaters Term Loan

On March 17, 2008, we entered into a $7.1 million loan agreement with a financial institution, secured by our Royal George Theatre in Chicago, Illinois and our Minetta Lane Theatre and Orpheum Theatre in New York. The loan has a 5-year term loan that accrues a 6.20% interest rate payable monthly in arrears. We incurred deferred financing costs of $527,000 related to our borrowings of this loan. The loan agreement requires only monthly principal and interest payments along with self-reported annual financial statements. As this loan is due to mature on April 1, 2013, the December 31, 2012 outstanding balance of this debt of $6.4 million is classified as current on our balance sheet. We intend to refinance the property’s debt.

US Nationwide Loan 1

On February 22, 2008, we acquired 15 motion picture theaters and theater-related assets from Pacific Theatres Exhibition Corp. and its affiliates (collectively, the “Sellers”) for $70.2 million a transaction referred to as the “Pacific Theaters Acquisition.” The Seller’s affiliate, Nationwide Theatres Corp (“Nationwide”), provided $21.0 million of acquisition financing evidenced by a five-year promissory note (the “Nationwide Note 1”) of Reading Consolidated Holdings, Inc., our wholly owned subsidiary (“RCHI”), maturing on February 21, 2013.

The Nationwide Note 1 bears interest (i) as to $4.5 million of principal at the annual rates of 7.50% for the first three years and 8.50% thereafter and (ii) as to $13.0 million of principal at the annual rates of 6.50% through July 31, 2009 and 8.50% thereafter. Accrued interest is due and payable on February 21, 2011 and thereafter on the last day of each calendar quarter, commencing on June 30, 2011. The entire principal amount is due and payable upon maturity, subject to our right to prepay at any time without premium or penalty and to the requirement that, under certain circumstances, we make mandatory prepayments equal to a portion of free cash flow generated by the acquired theaters. The loan is recourse only to RCHI and its assets, which include all of the Hawaii theaters and certain of the California theaters acquired from the Sellers and our Manville and Dallas Angelika Theaters.

The Nationwide Note 1 was subject to certain purchase price related adjustments. Through December 31, 2012, these adjustments have resulted in a net reduction in principal of $20.4 million comprised of a reduction in the amount of $6.3 million in 2008, a further reduction of $226,000 during the first quarter of 2009, an additional advance of $3.0 million in 2009 (such advance was used to pay down a portion of the GE Capital Term Loan discussed above), a $4.4 million reduction during the first quarter of 2010 in which Nationwide Theaters Corp. and Reading agreed to reduce the seller’s note, and finally a $12.5 million reduction in September 2010. As a result of these reductions, the principal balance of the notes at December 31, 2012 was $593,000.

Sutton Hill Capital Notes 1 & 2

As part of the negotiation of the Village East Lease (see Note 25 – Related Parties and Transactions), we paid off the Sutton Hill Capital (“SHC”) Note 1 of $5.0 million on June 30, 2010 and renegotiated the SHC Note 2 for $9.0 million. Under the new terms of the SHC Note 2, the loan has a variable annual rate equal to a Five-Year Constant Maturity United States Treasury Note rate plus a 5.75% margin, subject to a minimum rate of 8.25% and a maximum rate of 10% and the note matures on December 31, 2013. No interim principal payments are required and the balance of the note is payable upon maturity. No other covenants are required for this loan. This loan is unsecured.

Union Square Theatre Term Loan

On April 30, 2010, we refinanced the loan secured by our Union Square property with another lender. The new loan for $7.5 million has a five-year term with a fixed interest rate of 5.92% per annum and an amortization payment schedule of 20 years with a balloon payment of approximately $6.4 million at the end of the loan term.

US Nationwide Loan 2

In connection with the Pacific Theaters Acquisition, the Sellers also committed to loan to RDI up to $3.0 million in two draws of $1.5 million each, one of which was drawn on July 21, 2008 and the other of which may have been drawn on or before July 31, 2009. During 2010, as part of the $4.4 million note reduction of the US Nationwide Loan 1, we waived our right to draw on the second $1.5 million. The existing $1.5 million loan bore an interest rate of 8.50%, compounded annually. The loan and accrued interest were due and payable, in full, on February 21, 2011, subject to our right to prepay the loan without premium or penalty. Pursuant to the terms of this note, we paid off this loan of $1.5 million with its $359,000 of accrued interest on February 21, 2011.

Summary of Notes Payable

Our aggregate future principal loan payments are as follows (dollars in thousands):



Year Ending December 31,
2013	$	28,714
2014		86,357
2015		32,613
2016		3,000
2017		18,000
Thereafter		27,913
Total future principal loan payments	$	196,597

Since approximately $98.7 million of our total debt of $196.6 million at December 31, 2012 consisted of debt denominated in Australian and New Zealand dollars, the U.S dollar amounts of these repayments will fluctuate in accordance with the relative values of these currencies.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for information about short-term and long-term debt arrangements, which includes amounts of borrowings under each line of credit, note payable, commercial paper issue, bonds indenture, debenture issue, own-share lending arrangements and any other contractual agreement to repay funds, and about the underlying arrangements, rationale for a classification as long-term, including repayment terms, interest rates, collateral provided, restrictions on use of assets and activities, whether or not in compliance with debt covenants, and other matters important to users of the financial statements, such as the effects of refinancing and noncompliance with debt covenants.

Derivative Instruments [Abstract]

Derivative Instruments

Note 13 – 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 term loan based on BBSY for a 5.50% fixed rate loan which steps down commensurate with the payments of the loan balance. At the time of entering into this NAB swap, our existing BOSI swap was “in-the-money” by $160,000. In lieu of a cash payment for the in-the-money BOSI swap, we negotiated a slightly lower fixed swap rate by 0.05% for our new NAB fixed rate swap.

On October 31, 2012, we replaced our GE Capital Term Loan of $27.7 million with a new credit facility from Bank of America of $30.0 million (see Note 12 – Notes Payable). Although the new credit facility does not require a fixed interest swap agreement, we will continue to use our existing fixed interest rate swap of $29.1 million until its term date of December 31, 2013. In order for Bank of America to agree to taking on this swap agreement, we agreed to increase the swap contract rate by 0.10%.

As a result of these swap and loan agreements, we pay a total fixed interest rate of 8.15% (5.50% swap contract rate plus a 2.65% margin under the loan) for our NAB Loan and a total fixed interest rate of 5.84% (1.44% swap contract rate plus a 4.50% margin under the loan) for our BofA Loan instead of the obligatorily disclosed loan rates of 5.82% and 3.21%, respectively, as indicated in Note 12 – Notes Payable.

The following table sets forth the terms of our interest rate swap derivative instruments at December 31, 2012:



Type of Instrument	Notional Amount	Pay Fixed Rate	Receive Variable Rate	Maturity Date
Interest rate swap	$29,062,000	1.440%	0.580%	December 31, 2013
Interest rate swap	$81,585,000	5.500%	4.550%	June 30, 2016

In accordance with FASB ASC 815-20 – Derivatives and Hedging, we marked our interest swap instruments to market on the consolidated balance sheet resulting in a $1.1 million increase to interest expense during 2012, a $5.0 million increase to interest expense during 2011, and a $284,000 decrease to interest expense during 2010. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, we recorded the fair market value of an interest rate swap of $5.9 million and $4.7 million, respectively, as an other long-term liabilities. In accordance with FASB ASC 815-20, we have not designated any of our current interest rate swap positions as financial reporting hedges.

- Definition

Tabular disclosure of pertinent information about a derivative or group of derivatives on a disaggregated basis, such as for individual instruments, or small groups of similar instruments. May include a combination of the type of instrument, risks being hedged, notional amount, hedge designation, related hedged item, inception date, maturity date, or other relevant item.

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. The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities are as follows (dollars in thousands):



		December 31,
Components of Deferred Tax Assets		2012		2011
Deferred Tax Assets:
Net operating loss carry forwards	$	31,040	$	35,455
Impairment reserves		4,493		1,764
Alternative minimum tax carry forwards		3,118		2,993
Installment sale of cinema property		3,022		2,929
Deferred revenue and expense		6,708		6,378
Acquired and option properties		(952)		2,924
Other		3,122		402
Total Deferred Tax Assets		50,551		52,845
Valuation allowance		(37,903)		(38,461)
Net deferred tax asset	$	12,648	$	14,384

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 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. Because of such negative evidence available for the U.S., Puerto Rico, and New Zealand, as of December 31, 2012, we recorded a valuation allowance of $37.9 million. After consideration of a number of factors for the Reading Australia group, including its recent history of financial income, its expected future earnings, the increase in market value of its real estate assets, and having executed a credit facility of over $100.0 million to resolve potential liquidity issues, the Company determined as of July 1, 2011 that it is more likely than not that deferred tax assets in Reading Australia group will be realized. Accordingly, we reversed the full valuation allowance in Australia, resulting in a net deferred tax asset of $14.4 million as of December 31, 2011, with approximately $3.4 million classified as current and $11.0 million as non-current.

As of December 31, 2012, we had U.S. net operating loss carry forwards of $21.7 million, of which $14.4 million expire between 2025 and 2030, while $7.3 million expire between 2030 and 2035.

In addition to the above net operating loss carry forwards having expiration dates, we have the following carry forwards that have no expiration date at December 31, 2012:

·	approximately $3.1 million in U.S. alternative minimum tax credit carry forwards;

·	approximately $45.9 million in Australian loss carry forwards; and

·	approximately $16.3 million in New Zealand loss carry forwards.

We disposed of our Puerto Rico operations during 2005 and plan no further investment in Puerto Rico for the foreseeable future. We have approximately $14.1 million in Puerto Rico loss carry forwards expiring no later than 2018. No material future tax benefits from Puerto Rico loss carry forwards can be recognized by the Company unless it re-enters the Puerto Rico market.

We expect no other substantial limitations on the future use of U.S. or foreign loss carry forwards except as may occur for certain losses occurring in New Zealand related to the Landplan operations, which may only be used to offset income and gains from those particular activities, and cannot be shared with their respective consolidated group.

U.S. income taxes have not been recognized on the temporary differences between book value and tax basis of investment in foreign subsidiaries. These differences become taxable upon a sale of the subsidiary or upon distribution of assets from the subsidiary to U.S. shareholders. We expect neither of these events will occur in the foreseeable future for any of our foreign subsidiaries.

The provision for income taxes is different from amounts computed by applying U.S. statutory rates to consolidated losses before taxes. The significant reason for these differences follows (dollars in thousands):



		Year Ended December 31,
		2012		2011		2010
Expected tax provision (benefit)	$	1,397	$	(831)	$	554
Increase (decrease) in tax expense resulting from:
Change in valuation allowance		(558)		(15,260)		(5,595)
Expired foreign loss carry forward		--		1,100		1,816
Foreign tax provision		3,356		1,067		1,291
Tax effect of foreign tax rates on current income		(126)		24		(240)
State and local tax provision		408		361		440
Tax/Audit Litigation Settlement		1,140		1,375		12,528
Effect of tax rate change		--		--		3,422
Other items		(713)		(166)		48
Actual tax provision (benefit)	$	4,904	$	(12,330)	$	14,264

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. Current earnings were available for distribution in the Reading Australia consolidated group of subsidiaries as of December 31, 2012. There is no withholding tax on dividends paid by an Australian company to its 80% or more U.S. public company shareholder, thus we have not provided foreign withholding taxes for these current retained earnings. We believe the U.S. tax impact of a dividend from our Australian subsidiary, net of loss carry forward and potential foreign tax credits, would not have a material effect on the tax provision as of December 31 2012.

We have accrued $24.1 million in income tax liabilities as of December 31, 2012, of which $15.2 million has been classified as current taxes payable and $8.9 million have been classified as non-current tax liabilities. As part of current taxes payable, we have accrued $8.0 million in connection with federal and state liabilities arising from the “Tax/Audit Litigation” matter which has now been settled (see Note 19 – Commitments and Contingencies). As part of noncurrent tax liabilities, we have accrued an additional $6.5 million related to the “Tax Audit/Litigation” matter. Amounts assessed by the IRS and expected to be assessed by state income tax agencies in connection with the “Tax Audit/Litigation” matter are no longer recorded under the cumulative probability approach prescribed by FASB ASC 740-10-25 but are recorded as a fixed and determinable liability. We believe the $24.1 million in tax liabilities represents an adequate provision for our income tax exposures.

The following table is a summary of the activity related to unrecognized tax benefits, excluding interest and penalties, for the years ending December 31, 2012, December 31, 2011, and December 31, 2010 (dollars in thousands):



		Year Ended		Year Ended		Year Ended
		December 31,		December 31,		December 31,
		2012		2011		2010
Unrecognized tax benefits – gross beginning balance	$	1,974	$	8,058	$	11,412
Gross increases – prior period tax provisions		197		--		--
Gross increases – current period tax positions		--		151		405
Settlements		--		(6,235)		(3,189)
Statute of limitations lapse		--		--		(570)
Unrecognized tax benefits – gross ending balance	$	2,171	$	1,974	$	8,058

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.

We had approximately $10.8 million and $11.4 million of gross tax benefits as of the adoption date and December 31, 2007, respectively, plus $1.7 million and $2.3 million of tax interest unrecognized on the financial statements as of each date, respectively. The gross tax benefits mostly reflect operating loss carry forwards and the IRS Tax Audit/Litigation case described below.

We recorded a reduction to our gross unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $3.4 million and an increase to tax interest of approximately $8.8 million during the period January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2010, and the total balance at December 31, 2010 was approximately $20.6 million (of which approximately $12.6 million represents IRS interest). Having settled the Tax Audit/Litigation matter described in Note 19 – Commitments and Contingencies, we further recorded a net reduction to our gross unrecognized tax benefits of approximately $6.1 million and a reduction to tax interest of approximately $10.4 million during the period January 1, 2011 to December 31, 2011, resulting in a total balance at December 31, 2011 of approximately $4.1 million, consisting of $1.9 million tax and $2.2 million interest. Of the $4.1 million gross unrecognized tax benefit at December 31, 2011, approximately $3.0 million would impact the effective tax rate if recognized. During the period January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2012 we recorded an increase of $0.2 million to our gross unrecognized tax benefits and an increase to tax interest of approximately $1.1 million, resulting in a total balance of $5.3 million consisting of $2.1 million in tax and $3.2 million in interest. Of the $5.3 million gross unrecognized tax benefit at December 31, 2012, approximately $4.3 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 $0.5 million to $1.5 million. The reasons for such change include but are not limited to tax positions expected to be taken during 2013, revaluation of current uncertain tax positions, and expiring statutes of limitation.

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 2007 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 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 19 – Commitments and Contingencies. Our income tax returns for Australia filed since inception in 1995 are generally open for examination. The income tax returns filed in New Zealand and Puerto Rico for calendar year 2006 and afterward remain open for examination as of December 31, 2012.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for income taxes. Disclosures may include net deferred tax liability or asset recognized in an enterprise's statement of financial position, net change during the year in the total valuation allowance, approximate tax effect of each type of temporary difference and carryforward that gives rise to a significant portion of deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets, utilization of a tax carryback, and tax uncertainties information.

Village East Purchase Option

On June 29, 2010, we agreed to extend our existing lease from SHC of the Village East Cinema in New York City by 10 years, with a new termination date of June 30, 2020. The Village East lease includes a sub-lease of the ground underlying the cinema that is subject to a longer-term ground lease between SHC and an unrelated third party that expires in June 1, 2031 (the “cinema ground lease”). The extended lease provides for a call option pursuant to which Reading may purchase the cinema ground lease for $5.9 million at the end of the lease term. Additionally, the lease has a put option pursuant to which SHC may require Reading to purchase all or a portion of SHC’s interest in the existing cinema lease and the cinema ground lease at any time between July 1, 2013 and December 4, 2019. SHC’s put option may be exercised on one or more occasions in increments of not less than $100,000 each. Because our Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and controlling shareholder, Mr. James J. Cotter, is also the managing member of SHC, RDI and SHC are considered entities under common control. As a result, we recorded the Village East Cinema building as a property asset of $4.7 million on our balance sheet based on the cost carry-over basis from an entity under common control with a corresponding lease liability of $5.9 million presented under other liabilities which accretes up to the $5.9 million liability till July 1, 2013 (see Note 25 – Related Parties and Transactions). As the option can be exercised starting on July 1, 2013, we have classified the $5.9 million lease liability as a current liability.

Fair Value Of Financial Instruments

Fair Value Of Financial Instruments [Abstract]

Fair Value Of Financial Instruments

Note 16 – Fair Value of Financial Instruments

ASC 820-10 applies to existing accounting pronouncements in which fair value measurements are already required and defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements.

ASC 820-10 (see Note 2 –Summary of Significant Accounting Policies) 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.

We use appropriate valuation techniques based on the available inputs to measure the fair values of our assets and liabilities. When available, we measure fair value using Level 1 inputs because they generally provide the most reliable evidence of fair value.

We used the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair values of the assets and liabilities in the table above.

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 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 – 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. For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, the fair value of our impaired properties was estimated to be $4.1 million, $1.9 million, and $1.8 million, respectively, which we used to record our impairment expense and was based on level 3 inputs in developing management’s estimate of fair value. For the year ended December 31, 2011, the fair value of our Rialto Cinemas investment was $1.6 million (NZ$2.0 million) resulting in an impairment charge of $2.9 million (NZ$3.8 million).

As of December 31, 2012, we held certain items that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These included available for sale securities and interest rate derivative contracts. Derivative instruments are related to our economic hedge of interest rates. Our available-for-sale securities primarily consist of investments associated with the ownership of marketable securities in Australia.

The fair values of the interest rate swap agreements are determined using the market standard methodology of discounting the future expected cash receipts or payments that would occur if variable interest rate fell above or below the strike rate of the interest rate swap agreement. The variable interest rates used in the calculation of projected receipts or payments 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 us and our counterparties. However, as of December 31, 2012, 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. 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.

The following items are measured at fair value on a recurring basis subject to the disclosure requirements of ASC 820-10 at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively (dollars in thousands):



			Book Value				Fair Value
Financial Instrument	Level		2012		2011		2012		2011
Investment in marketable securities	1	$	55	$	2,874	$	55	$	2,874
Interest rate swaps liability	2	$	5,855	$	4,722	$	5,855	$	4,722

Financial Instruments Disclosed at Fair Value

The following table sets forth the carrying value and the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities at December 31, 2012 and 2011 (dollars in thousands):



		Book Value				Fair Value
Financial Instrument	Level		2012		2011		2012		2011

Subordinated debt	3	$	27,913	$	27,913	$	12,268	$	20,544

For purposes of this fair value disclosure, we based our fair value estimate for notes payable and subordinated debt on our internal valuation whereby we apply the discounted cash flow method to our expected cash flow payments due under our existing debt agreements based on a representative sample of our lenders’ market interest rate quotes as of December 31, 2012 and 2012, respectively, for debt with similar risk characteristics and maturities.

Lease Agreements [Abstract]

Lease Agreements

Note 17 – Lease Agreements

Most of our cinemas conduct their operations in leased facilities. Thirteen of our eighteen operating multiplexes in Australia, four of our eight cinemas in New Zealand, and all but one of our cinemas in the United States are in leased facilities. These cinema leases have remaining terms inclusive of options of 1 to 38 years. Certain of our cinema leases provide for contingent rentals based upon a specified percentage of theater revenue with a guaranteed minimum. Substantially all of our leases require the payment of property taxes, insurance, and other costs applicable to the property. We also lease office space and equipment under non-cancelable operating leases. All of our leases are accounted for as operating leases and accordingly, we have no leases of facilities that require capitalization.

We determine the annual base rent expense of our cinemas by amortizing total minimum lease obligations on a straight-line basis over the lease terms. Base rent expense and contingent rental expense under the operating leases totaled approximately $32.6 million and $1.7 million for 2012, respectively; $31.2 million and $1.6 million for 2011, respectively; and $30.9 million and $1.1 million for 2010, respectively. Future minimum lease payments by year and, in the aggregate, under non-cancelable operating leases consisted of the following at December 31, 2012 (dollars in thousands):



		Minimum Ground		Minimum Premises		Equipment		Total Minimum
		Lease Payments		Lease Payments		Lease		Lease Payments
2013	$	3,218	$	28,477	$	2,693	$	34,388
2014		2,130		25,720		2,693		30,543
2015		1,094		22,637		2,693		26,424
2016		1,128		18,753		2,693		22,574
2017		1,223		15,772		2,693		19,688
Thereafter		15,248		61,023		--		76,271
Total minimum lease payments	$	24,041	$	172,382	$	13,465	$	209,888

Since approximately $90.2 million of our total minimum lease payments of $209.9 million as of December 31, 2012 consisted of lease obligations denominated in Australian and New Zealand dollars, the U.S dollar amounts of these obligations will fluctuate in accordance with the relative values of these currencies. See Note 25 – Related Parties and Transactions for the amount of leases associated with any related party leases.

Digital Projection Equipment Lease

Effective December 1, 2012, we entered into a 5-year digital projection equipment lease obligation with Banc of America enabling us to convert substantially all of our domestic cinemas to digital projection. The equipment lease agreement requires that we make lease payments of $218,000 per month for the next 60 months after which we can either purchase the equipment at a market price or renew the lease for an undertermined length of time. This lease qualifies as an operating lease and is recorded accordingly.

- Definition

The entire disclosure for lessee entity's leasing arrangements including, but not limited to, all of the following: (a.) The basis on which contingent rental payments are determined, (b.) The existence and terms of renewal or purchase options and escalation clauses, (c.) Restrictions imposed by lease agreements, such as those concerning dividends, additional debt, and further leasing.

Note 18 – Pension Liabilities

Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan

In March 1, 2007, the Board of Directors of Reading International, Inc. (“Reading”) approved a Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”) pursuant to which Reading has agreed to provide James J. Cotter, its Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors, supplemental retirement benefits effective March 1, 2007. Under the SERP, Mr. Cotter will receive a monthly payment of the greater of (i) 40% of the average monthly earnings over the highest consecutive 36-month period of earnings prior to Mr. Cotter’s separation from service with Reading or (ii) $25,000 per month for the remainder of his life, with a guarantee of 180 monthly payments following his separation from service with Reading or following his death. The beneficiaries under the SERP may be designated by Mr. Cotter or by his beneficiary following his or his beneficiary’s death. The benefits under the SERP are fully vested as of March 1, 2007.

The SERP initially will be unfunded, but Reading may choose to establish one or more grantor trusts from which to pay the SERP benefits. As such, the SERP benefits are unsecured, general obligations of Reading. The SERP is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Reading. In accordance with FASB ASC 715-30-05 – Defined Benefit Pension Plans (“ASC 715-30-05”), the initial pension benefit obligation of $2.7 million was included in our other liabilities with a corresponding amount of unrecognized prior service cost included in accumulated other comprehensive income on March 1, 2007. The initial benefit obligation was based on a discount rate of 5.75% and a compensation increase rate of 3.5%. The $2.7 million is being amortized as a prior service cost over the estimated service period of 10 years combined with an annual interest cost. For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010, we recognized $149,000, $195,000, and $200,000, respectively, of interest cost and $304,000 of amortized prior service cost per year. For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, we recognized $0 and $24,000 of amortized net gains. The balance of the other liability for this pension plan was $5.9 million and $3.5 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and the accumulated unrecognized prior service costs included in other comprehensive income balance was $3.2 and $1.2 million at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The December 31, 2012 and 2011 values of the SERP are based on a discount rate of 3.40% and 4.25%, respectively and an annual compensation growth rate of 3.50% per year.

The change in the SERP pension benefit obligation and the funded status for the year ending December 31, 2012 and 2011 are as follows (dollars in thousands):



		For the year ending
Change in Benefit Obligation		December 31, 2012

Total recognized in other comprehensive income	$	1,980	$	(832)

Total recognized in net periodic benefit cost and other comprehensive income	$	2,433	$	(309)

The estimated net loss and prior service cost for the defined benefit pension plan that will be amortized from accumulated other comprehensive income into net periodic benefit cost over the next fiscal year will be $356,000 and $304,000, respectively.

The following weighted average assumptions were used to determine the plan benefit obligations at December 31, 2012 and 2011:



	2012	2011
Discount rate	3.40%	4.25%
Rate of compensation increase	3.50%	3.50%

The following weighted-average assumptions were used to determine net periodic benefit cost for the year ended December 31, 2012 and 2011:



	2012	2011
Discount rate	4.25%	5.10%
Expected long-term return on plan assets	0.00%	0.00%
Rate of compensation increase	3.50%	3.50%

Other Pension Liabilities

In addition to the aforementioned SERP, we have defined contribution pension plans for selected current and former executives of our corporation resulting in a pension liability of $1.0 million and $778,000 at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. These pensions accrued $204,000 and $101,000 of pension expense for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

The benefit payments for all of our pensions, which reflect expected future service, as appropriate, are expected to be paid over the following periods (dollars in thousands):

Commitments And Contingencies	12 Months Ended
Commitments And Contingencies	Dec. 31, 2012
Commitments And Contingencies [Abstract]
Commitments And Contingencies	Note 19 - Commitments and Contingencies Unconsolidated Joint Venture Loans The following section describes any loans associated with our investments in unconsolidated joint ventures. As these investments are unconsolidated, any associated bank loans are not reflected in our Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2012. Each loan is without recourse to any assets other than our interests in the individual joint venture. Rialto Distribution. We are the 33.3% co-owners of the assets of Rialto Distribution. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, Rialto Distribution had a bank line of credit of $1.7 million (NZ$2.0 million) and $1.6 million (NZ$2.0 million), respectively, and had an outstanding balance of $703,000 (NZ$850,000) and $663,000 (NZ$850,000), respectively. This loan is guaranteed by one of our subsidiaries to the extent of our ownership percentage. Tax Audit/Litigation The Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) has examined the tax return of Reading Entertainment Inc. (“RDGE”) for its tax years ended December 31, 1996 through December 31, 1999 and the tax return of Craig Corporation (“CRG”) for its tax year ended June 30, 1997. These companies are both now wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company, but for the time periods under audit, were not consolidated with the Company for tax purposes. CRG and the IRS agreed to compromise the claims made by the IRS against CRG and the Tax Court’s order was entered on January 6, 2011. In the settlement, the IRS conceded 70% of its claimed adjustment to income. Instead of a claim for unpaid taxes of $20.9 million plus interest, the effect of settlement on the Reading consolidated group was to require a total federal income tax obligation of $5.4 million, reduced by a federal tax refund of $800,000 and increased by interest of $9.3 million, for a net federal tax liability of $13.9 million as of January 6, 2011. On October 26, 2011, CRG reached an agreement with the IRS for an installment plan to pay off this federal tax liability, including additional interest accruals at the prescribed IRS floating rate. The agreement requires monthly payments of $290,000 over a period of approximately five years. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, after the payments made during 2012 and 2011, respectively, the remaining federal tax obligation was $10.0 million and $13.5 million, respectively, in tax and interest. Of the $10.0 million owed under the installment agreement as of December 31, 2012, $3.5 million was recorded as current taxes payable, with the remaining balance being recorded as non-current tax liability. Of the $13.5 million owed under the installment agreement as of December 31, 2011, $3.5 million was recorded as current taxes payable, with the remaining balance being recorded as non-current tax liability. The impact of the settlement upon the state taxes of the Reading consolidated group, if the adjustment to income agreed with the IRS were reflected on state returns, would be an obligation of approximately $1.4 million in tax plus interest and potential penalty. CRG’s 1997 tax year remains open with respect to CRG’s potential tax liability to the State of California. As of December 31, 2012, 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 when a deficiency is asserted. Environmental and Asbestos Claims Certain of our subsidiaries were historically involved in railroad operations, coal mining, and manufacturing. Also, certain of these subsidiaries appear in the chain of title of properties that may suffer from pollution. Accordingly, certain of these subsidiaries have, from time to time, been named in and may in the future be named in various actions brought under applicable environmental laws. Also, we are in the real estate development business and may encounter from time to time unanticipated environmental conditions at properties that we have acquired for development. These environmental conditions can increase the cost of such projects, and adversely affect the value and potential for profit of such projects. We do not currently believe that our exposure under applicable environmental laws is material in amount. From time to time, we have claims brought against us relating to the exposure of former employees of our railroad operations to asbestos and coal dust. These are generally covered by an insurance settlement reached in September 1990 with our insurance carriers. However, this insurance settlement does not cover litigation by people who were not our employees and who may claim second hand exposure to asbestos, coal dust and/or other chemicals or elements now recognized as potentially causing cancer in humans. Our known exposure to these types of claims, asserted or probable of being asserted, is not material. In connection with the development of our 50.6 acre Burwood site, it will be necessary to address certain environmental issues. That property was at one time used as a brickworks and we have discovered petroleum and asbestos at the site. During 2007, we developed a plan for the remediation of these materials, in some cases through removal and in other cases through encapsulation. As of December 31, 2012, we estimate that the total site preparation costs associated with the removal of this contaminated soil will be $17.7 million (AUS$17.1 million) and as of that date we had incurred a total of $8.6 million (AUS$8.3 million) of these costs. We do not believe that this has added materially to the overall development cost of the site, as it is anticipated that all of the work will be done in connection with the excavation and other development activity already contemplated for the property.

This land is held in Shadow View Land and Farming, LLC, in which Mr. Cotter owns a 50% interest. We are the managing member of Shadow View Land and Farming, LLC.

Our Class A (non-voting) has preference over our Class B (voting) shares upon liquidation. No dividends have ever been issued for either share class. 2012 Common Stock Activity During 2012, we issued 155,925 of Class A Nonvoting shares to an executive employee associated with his prior years’ stock grant, and, during 2012, we issued 9,680 as a one-time stock grant of Class A Nonvoting shares to our employees valued at $44,000 which we accounted for as compensation expense. 95,000 options were exercised during 2012 having a realized value of $136,000 for which we received $308,000 of cash. Additionally, 41,000 options were exercised during 2012 having a realized value of $103,000 for which we did not receive any cash but the employee elected to receive the net incremental number of in-the-money shares of 15,822 based on an exercise price of $4.01 and a market price of $6.53. 2011 Common Stock Activity During 2011, we issued 174,825 of Class A Nonvoting shares to certain executive employee associated with his prior years’ stock grants. During 2011, we purchased 172,300 of Class A Nonvoting shares on the open market for $747,000. 2010 Common Stock Activity During 2010, we issued 148,616 shares of Class A Stock (non-voting) to certain executive employees associated with their prior years’ stock bonuses. Additionally, we canceled 4,348,780 shares of Class A Stock (non-voting) held as treasury by one of our subsidiaries due to an issuance error made in 2002 associated with the consolidation of Reading Entertainment Inc. and Craig Corporation, Inc. into Reading International, Inc. For the stock options exercised during 2010, we issued for cash to employees or directors of the corporation under our employee stock option plan 90,000 shares of Class A Stock at an exercise price of $2.76 per share. Due to a perceived low price of our common shares, during the first quarter of 2010, we purchased 62,375 shares for a total cost of $251,000. Also, as a result of our revised Village East Cinema building lease, we recorded a deemed equity distribution of $877,000 (see Note 25 – Related Parties and Transactions).

Related Parties And Transactions	12 Months Ended
Related Parties And Transactions	Dec. 31, 2012
Related Parties And Transactions [Abstract]
Related Parties And Transactions	Note 25 – Related Parties and Transactions Sutton Hill Capital In 2001, we entered into a transaction with Sutton Hill Capital, LLC (“SHC”) regarding the leasing with an option to purchase of certain cinemas located in Manhattan. In connection with that transaction, we also agreed to lend certain amounts to SHC, to provide liquidity in its investment, pending our determination whether or not to exercise our option to purchase and to manage the 86th Street Cinema on a fee basis. SHC is a limited liability company owned in equal shares by James J. Cotter and Michael Forman and of which Mr. Cotter is the managing member. During 2012, 2011, and 2010, we paid rent to SHC in the amount of $590,000, $590,000, and $547,000, respectively. On June 29, 2010, we agreed to extend our existing lease from SHC of the Village East Cinema in New York City by 10 years, with a new termination date of June 30, 2020. The Village East lease includes a sub-lease of the ground underlying the cinema that is subject to a longer-term ground lease between SHC and an unrelated third party that expires in June 2031 (the “cinema ground lease”). The extended lease provides for a call option pursuant to which Reading may purchase the cinema ground lease for $5.9 million at the end of the lease term. Additionally, the lease has a put option pursuant to which SHC may require Reading to purchase all or a portion of SHC’s interest in the existing cinema lease and the cinema ground lease at any time between July 1, 2013 and December 4, 2019. SHC’s put option may be exercised on one or more occasions in increments of not less than $100,000 each. Because our Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and controlling shareholder, Mr. James J. Cotter, is also the managing member of SHC, RDI and SHC are considered entities under common control. As a result, we recorded the Village East Cinema building as a property asset of $4.7 million on our balance sheet based on the cost carry-over basis from an entity under common control with a corresponding capital lease liability of $5.9 million presented under other liabilities (see Note 15 – Other Liabilities). This resulted in a deemed equity distribution of $877,000. In 2005, we acquired from a third party the fee interest and from SHC its interest in the ground lease estate underlying the Cinemas 1, 2 & 3 in Manhattan. In connection with that transaction, we agreed to grant to SHC an option to acquire a 25% interest in the special purpose entity formed to acquire these interests at cost. On June 28, 2007, SHC exercised this option, paying the option exercise price through the application of their $3.0 million deposit plus the assumption of its proportionate share of SHP’s liabilities giving it a 25% non-managing membership interest in SHP. OBI Management Agreement Pursuant to a Theater Management Agreement (the “Management Agreement”), our live theater operations are managed by OBI LLC (“OBI Management”), which is wholly owned by Ms. Margaret Cotter who is the daughter of James J. Cotter and a member of our Board of Directors. The Management Agreement generally provides that we will pay OBI Management a combination of fixed and incentive fees, which historically have equated to approximately 21% of the net cash flow received by us from our live theaters in New York. Since the fixed fees are applicable only during such periods as the New York theaters are booked, OBI Management receives no compensation with respect to a theater at any time when it is not generating revenue for us. This arrangement provides an incentive to OBI Management to keep the theaters booked with the best available shows, and mitigates the negative cash flow that would result from having an empty theater. In addition, OBI Management manages our Royal George live theater complex in Chicago on a fee basis based on theater cash flow. In 2012, OBI Management earned $390,000, which was 19.7% of net cash flows for the year. In 2011, OBI Management earned $398,000, which was 19.4% of net cash flows for the year. In 2010, OBI Management earned $416,000, which was 24.2% of net cash flows for the year. In each year, we reimbursed travel related expenses for OBI Management personnel with respect to travel between New York City and Chicago in connection with the management of the Royal George complex. OBI Management conducts its operations from our office facilities on a rent-free basis, and we share the cost of one administrative employee of OBI Management. Other than these expenses and travel-related expenses for OBI Management personnel to travel to Chicago as referred to above, OBI Management is responsible for all of its costs and expenses related to the performance of its management functions. The Management Agreement renews automatically each year unless either party gives at least six months’ prior notice of its determination to allow the Management Agreement to expire. In addition, we may terminate the Management Agreement at any time for cause. Live Theater Play Investment From time to time, our officers and directors may invest in plays that lease our live theaters. The play STOMP has been playing in our Orpheum Theatre since prior to the time we acquired the theater in 2001. Messrs. James J. Cotter and Michael Forman own an approximately 5% interest in that play, an interest that they have held since prior to our acquisition of the theater. Shadow View Land and Farming LLC During the 2012, Mr. James J. Cotter, our Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and controlling shareholder, contributed $2.5 million of cash and $255,000 of his 2011 bonus as his 50% share of the purchase price of a land parcel in Coachella, California and to cover his 50% share of certain costs associated with that acquisition. This land is held in Shadow View Land and Farming, LLC, in which Mr. Cotter owns a 50% interest. We are the managing member of Shadow View Land and Farming, LLC.

Casualty Loss [Abstract]
Casualty Loss	Note 26 – Casualty Loss 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. We have earthquake and lost profits insurance on that facility for which we have received to date $1.1 million (NZ$1.3 million) which is included in our other income (expense). We are awaiting a final settlement payment on this claim for a nominally estimated amount to be received in 2013. This cinema was reopened on November 17, 2011, but, as a result of a December 23, 2011 earthquake, the cinema was again temporarily closed for approximately two weeks. 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. Rialto Cinemas and the landlord have terminated the lease under agreeable terms and did not result in a significant reduction to the value of our investment in the Rialto Cinemas joint venture relative to its carrying value.

- Definition

This element represents the portion of the balance sheet assertion valued at fair value by the entity whether such amount is presented as a separate caption or as a parenthetical disclosure. Additionally, this element may be used in connection with the fair value disclosures required in the footnote disclosures to the financial statements. The element may be used in both the balance sheet and disclosure in the same submission. This item represents Trading Securities which consist of all investments in certain debt and equity securities that are bought and held principally for the purpose of selling them in the near term (thus held for only a short period of time) or for which an entity has elected the fair value option. Trading generally reflects active and frequent buying and selling, and trading securities are generally used with the objective of generating profits on short-term differences in price, but this category of investments may also include items which are not intended to be sold in the near term or for which the fair value option has been elected.
