Note 1 – Basis of Presentation

          Reading International, Inc., a Nevada corporation (“RII” and collectively with our consolidated subsidiaries and corporate predecessors, the “Company,” “Reading” and “we,” “us,” or “our”), was incorporated in 1999 as Citadel Holding Corporation (“CDL”), and was renamed Reading. Our businesses consist primarily of:

          The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim reporting and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X of the Securities and Exchange Commission for interim reporting. As such, certain information and footnote disclosures typically required by US GAAP for complete financial statements have been condensed or omitted. Other than the disclosure of discontinued operations, there have been no material changes in the information disclosed in the notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004 (“2004 Annual Report”). The financial information presented in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2005 (the “March Report”), including the information under the heading, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, should be read in conjunction with our 2004 Annual Report which contains the latest audited financial statements and related footnotes.

          In the opinion of management, all adjustments of a normal recurring nature considered necessary to present fairly in all material respects our financial position, results of our operations and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2005 have been made. The results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the entire year. Certain amounts in previously issued financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the 2005 presentation.

New Accounting and Tax Pronouncements

          On October 22, 2004, the President signed the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 (the Act). The Act creates a temporary incentive for U.S. corporations to repatriate accumulated income earned abroad by providing an 85 percent dividends received deduction for certain dividends from controlled foreign corporations. We do not expect to have material current or accumulated earnings in controlled foreign corporations at December 31 2005, and therefore expect no opportunity to make distributions that qualify for the tax benefits under the Act. Accordingly, we do not expect the Act to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations.

          In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 – Revised, “Share Based Payment”. The statement establishes the standards for the accounting for transactions in which an entity exchanges its equity instruments for goods and services. The statement focuses primarily on accounting for transactions in which an entity obtains employee services in share-based payment transactions. Public companies may apply the standard on a modified prospective method.

5

Under this method, a company records compensation expense for all awards it grants after the date it adopts the standard. In addition, public companies are required to record compensation expense for the unvested portion of previously granted awards that remain outstanding at the date of adoption. During 2005, the Securities and Exchange Commission deferred the effective date of this statement until the first annual period beginning after June 15, 2005. The financial statement impact of adopting of this statement has not yet been estimated.

Note 2 – Stock-Based Compensation

          We have a stock based compensation plan for certain employees and non-employee directors which is fully described in the 2004 Annual Report. We account for the plan under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion (“APBO”) No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and related Interpretations. Under APBO No. 25, no stock-based employee compensation cost has been reflected in net income, as all options granted under the plan had an exercise price equal to the market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. APBO No. 25 does not apply to non-employees and would require that we record compensation expense for non-employees. However, APBO No. 25 applies to non-employee directors when stock options are granted in connection with the non-employee directors’ board services.

          Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, as amended by SFAS No. 148, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure (“SFAS Nos. 123 and 148”) established disclosure requirements using the fair value basis method of accounting for stock-based compensation. As permitted by SFAS Nos. 123 and 148, we have elected to continue using the intrinsic value method of accounting prescribed under APBO No. 25. The following table illustrates the effect on net loss and loss per share as if we had applied the fair value provisions of SFAS Nos. 123 and 148 to measure stock-based compensation (dollars in thousands):

          During the first quarter of 2005, we issued 20,000 shares of Class A Non-Voting Common Stock with an exercise price of $2.76 per share in connection with a former director’s desire to exercise his stock options. In connection with this transaction, a note receivable was accepted from the former director in the amount of $55,000.

Note 3 – Business Segments

          Our operations are organized into two reportable business segments within the meaning of SFAS No. 131, Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information. Our reportable segments are: (1) cinema exhibition and (2) real estate. The cinema segment is primarily engaged in the development, ownership and operation of multiplex cinemas. The real estate segment is primarily engaged in the development, ownership and operation of commercial properties, including ETRC’s. Historically, our development projects have included a cinema component. Corporate results include interest income earned with respect to cash balances, interest expense, general and administrative expenses, minority interest income (expense) and other income (expense).

          Information about our cinema and real estate segments operations for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 is presented in the following tables (dollars in thousands):

Note 4 — Foreign Currency and Foreign Currency Derivative Instruments

          As fully described in our 2004 Annual Report, we have cinema operations and significant assets in Australia and New Zealand. To the extent possible, we conduct our Australian and New Zealand operations on a self-funding basis. The carrying value of our Australian and New Zealand assets fluctuates due to changes in

7

the exchange rates between the US dollar and the functional currency of Australia (Australian dollar) and New Zealand (New Zealand dollar). We have no derivative financial instruments to hedge foreign currency exposure.

          Presented in the table below are the currency exchange rates for Australia and New Zealand as of March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004.

Note 5 – Loss Per Share

          Basic loss per share is computed by dividing net loss to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share is computed by dividing net loss to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period after giving effect to all potentially dilutive common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive common shares had been issued. Stock options give rise to potentially dilutive common shares.

          For the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004, respectively, we recorded net losses. As such, the incremental shares of 686,197 and 573,669 in 2005 and 2004, respectively, from stock options to purchase shares of common stock were excluded from the computation of diluted loss per share because they were anti-dilutive in those periods.

Note 6 — Comprehensive Income

          U.S. GAAP requires that the effect of foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and/or losses on securities that are available-for-sale (“AFS”) be classified as comprehensive income. The following table sets forth our comprehensive income for the periods indicated (dollars in thousands):

8

Note 7 — Property and Equipment

          As of March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, we had investments in rental property and property and equipment as follows (dollars in thousands):

Note 8 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets

          As of January 1, 2002, in accordance with SFAS No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, we do not amortize goodwill. Instead we perform an annual impairment review of our goodwill and other intangible assets. As of March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, we had goodwill consisting of the following (dollars in thousands):

          We have intangible assets other than goodwill which are subject to amortization and are being amortized over various periods. We amortize our beneficial lease over 20 years and our option fees and acquisition costs over 10 years. For the three months ended March 31, 2005, the amortization expense totaled $305,000.

          Intangible assets subject to amortization consist of the following (dollars in thousands):

9

Note 9 – Income Tax

          The income tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2005 and 2004 was comprised of the following amounts (dollars in thousands), respectively:

Note 10 – Minority Interest

          Minority interest is composed of the following enterprises:

          The components of minority interest are as follows (dollars in thousands):

10

Note 11 – Notes Payable

          During the first quarter of 2005, we drew down $7.8 million (AUS$10.0 million) on our Australian credit facilities consisting of $2.1 million (AUS$2.7 million) from our Australian General Corporate Credit Facility and $5.7 million (AUS$7.3 million) from our Newmarket Loan. We used these funds primarily to finance the construction of our Newmarket development in Brisbane, Australia. Except for normal principal payments, no other activity occurred during the period in relation to our credit facilities. The fair value of our notes payable at March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004 were $79.8 million and $72.4 million, respectively.

Note 12 – Discontinued Operations and Assets Held For Sale

          In accordance with SFAS 144 Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, we report as discontinued operations real estate assets that meet the definition of a component of an entity and have been sold or meet the criteria to be classified as held for sale under SFAS 144. We included all results of these discontinued operations, less applicable income taxes, in a separate component of income on the consolidated statements of income under the heading “discontinued operations.” This treatment resulted in reclassifications of the 2004 financial statement amounts to conform to the 2005 presentation.

          Glendale Building. On January 13, 2005, we entered into a purchase and sale agreement providing for the sale of our Glendale office building in Glendale, California for $21.0 million. Our Glendale Property is currently subject to a first mortgage in the amount of approximately $10.1 million. Net income of $78,000 and $90,000 of the total net losses for the first quarters of 2005 and 2004, respectively, relate to the operations of the Glendale Property.

11

The 2005 and 2004 quarterly results for the Glendale Property are as follows:

Note 13 – Acquisitions

          Pending Cinemas 1, 2 & 3 Land Acquisition. In August 2004, we entered into an agreement to purchase for $12.0 million the approximately 7,840 square-foot fee interest underlying our current leasehold interest in the Cinemas 1, 2 & 3 property located in Manhattan on 3^rd Avenue between 58^th Street and 59^th Street. In January 2005, we increased our deposit down payment on the property from $800,000 to $4.0 million and agreed to an increase in the purchase price from $12.0 million to $12.2 million. In return, we acquired an extension of the contract period until June 1, 2005. While no assurances can be given that the buyer will close, the due diligence period has lapsed, and we are advised that financing is in place and that the escrow has been funded. Accordingly, we anticipate closing before the end May.

Note 14 – Prepaid and Other Assets

          Prepaid and other assets are summarized as follows (dollars in thousands):

12

Note 15 – Other Liabilities

          Other liabilities are summarized as follows (dollars in thousands):

Note 16 – Commitment and Contingencies

          Except as set forth in our 2004 Annual Report, we have noted no changes or updates to our commitments and contingencies during the first quarter of 2005.

Note 17 – Common Stock

          During the first quarter of 2005, we issued 20,000 shares of Class A Non-Voting Common Stock with an exercise price of $2.76 per share in connection with a former director’s desire to exercise his stock options.

          Additionally, as noted in our 2004 Annual Report, the sellers of the Movieland Circuit were given a non-transferable option to put to us the Class A Common Stock issued to them in connection with the acquisition of that circuit, at a put price of NZ$11.94 at any time during January 2006. During 2004, we recorded the put option as a liability on our books for $184,000 and we remeasure this liability each period through the end of the option life in January 2006.

Note 18 – Derivative Instruments

          The following table sets forth the terms of our interest rate swap derivative instruments at March 31, 2005:

13

          In accordance with SFAS No. 133 Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, we marked our Australian interest swap instruments to market on the consolidated balance sheet resulting in an $472,000 (AUS$613,000) decrease to interest expense during the first quarter of 2005. We have recorded the fair market value of our interest rate swaps of $338,000 (AUS$437,000) as an other long-term liability. The swap with a notional amount of $12,618,000 does not have a “Receive Variable Rate” because the instrument will not be effective until March 31, 2006. In accordance with SFAS No. 133, we have not designated any of our current interest rate swap positions as financial reporting hedges.

Note 19 – Investments in and Advances to Joint Ventures

          Investments in and advances to unconsolidated joint ventures are accounted for under the equity method of accounting, and as of March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004 include the following (dollars in thousands):

          205-209 East 57^th Street Associates, LLC. During the first quarter of 2005, we increased our investment by $963,000 in the 205-209 East 57^th Street Associates, LLC a limited liability company formed to redevelop our former cinema site at 205 East 57^th Street in Manhattan. The increase in investment was done to maintain our 25% equity ownership in the joint venture in light of increased budgeted construction costs.

          For the period ending March 31, 2005, we recorded equity earnings from Mt. Gravatt and Berkeley Cinemas of $135,000 and $269,000, respectively.

Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

          Reading International, Inc. (“Reading” and “we,” “us” or “our”) consider ourselves to be essentially a cinema exhibition and live theater operating company with a strong focus on the development and holding of real estate assets. Our business operations include:

We manage our worldwide cinema business under various different brands:

          We currently operate 38 cinemas with 260 screens, have unconsolidated joint ventures in which we have varying interests, with an additional six cinemas with 45 screens and manage three cinemas with 14 screens.

          Our business plan is to continue to identify, develop and acquire cinema and live theater properties, focusing on those opportunities where we can acquire either the fee interest underlying the operating assets, or long term leases, which we believe provide flexibility with respect to the usage of such leasehold assets and to focus on the development of our existing real estate. In the near term, we are focusing principally on the operation of our existing cinema assets and in the development of five parcels of undeveloped real estate in Melbourne, Brisbane, and Sydney in Australia, and in Wellington in New Zealand while taking advantage of those opportunities that may present themselves from time to time to strategically expand our existing cinema circuits.

          A significant portion of our business is conducted in Australia and New Zealand, and as such, we are subject to a certain degree of currency risk. We do not engage in currency hedging activities. Rather, to the extent possible, we operate our Australian and New Zealand operations on a self-funding basis. Our policy in Australia and New Zealand is to match revenue and expenses, whenever possible, in local currencies. As a result, a majority of our expenses in Australia and New Zealand have been procured in local currencies. Due to the developing nature of our operations in Australia and New Zealand, our revenues are not yet significantly greater than our operating expenses. The resulting natural operating hedge has led to a negligible foreign currency effect on our earnings. As we continue to progress with our acquisition and development activities in Australia and New Zealand, we cannot assure you that the foreign currency effect on our earnings will be insignificant in the future.

          We continue to acquire, to dispose of or to reposition assets in accordance with our business plan as follows:

15

Results of Operations

          During the quarter ended March 31, 2005, we directly operated 38 cinemas with 260 screens, had unconsolidated joint ventures in which we have varying interests, with an additional six cinemas with 45 screens and managed three cinemas with 14 screens. Regarding real estate, we own and operated during the quarter three ETRC’s that we developed in Australia and New Zealand; own the fee interests in five developed commercial properties in Manhattan, Chicago and Glendale, four of which are improved with live theaters comprising seven stages and, in two cases, ancillary retail and commercial space; and hold for development an additional five parcels (aggregating approximately 60 acres) in urbanized areas of Australia and New Zealand. Two of these parcels (comprising approximately 55 acres) are in areas designated by the provincial government of Victoria, Australia as “major activity centres,” and we are currently in the land use planning phases of their development.

          The tables below summarize the results of operations for each of our principal business segments for the three months ended March 31, 2005 (“2005 Quarter”) and 2004 (“2004 Quarter”), respectively. Operating expenses include costs associated with the day-to-day operations of the cinemas and live theaters and the management of rental properties.

16

Cinema

          Included in the cinema segment above is revenue and expense from the operations of 38 cinema complexes with a total of 260 screens.

17

Real Estate

          For the three months ended March 31, 2005, our rental generating real estate holdings consisted of:

          Revenue for the real estate segment increased $637,000 in the 2005 Quarter when compared to the 2004 Quarter. Of this increase, approximately $477,000 was attributable to an increase in rent from our domestic live theater rentals and $163,000 was from higher rental revenue and/or higher occupancy rates from our Australian and New Zealand ETRC’s and domestic properties.

          Operating expense for the real estate segment increased by approximately $54,000 in the 2005 Quarter when compared to the same period in 2004. This change mostly relates to an increase in the number of days that our live theater facilities were rented during the 2005 Quarter.

          Depreciation expense for the real estate decreased $202,000 in the 2005 Quarter when compared to the 2004 Quarter. The majority of the decrease was attributed to a change in the useful lives of our Australian assets made during our extensive review of our fixed asset valuations at the end of 2004.

          General and administrative expense increased $91,000 in the 2005 Quarter when compared to the same period in 2004. The increase was primarily related to written off Australian predevelopment costs.

          As a result of the above, real estate net income for the three months ended March 31, 2005 increased $679,000 when compared to the same period in 2004.

18

Discontinued Operations

          On January 13, 2005, we entered into a purchase and sale agreement providing for the sale of our Glendale office building in Glendale, California for $21.0 million. Our Glendale Property is currently subject to a first mortgage in the amount of approximately $10.1 million. which the buyer will assume. It is currently our intention to complete a tax-deferred “1031 exchange” of the Glendale Property for the fee and ground lease comprising the Cinemas 1, 2 & 3 property.

Corporate

          General and administrative expense includes expenses that are not directly attributable to other operating segments. The increase in general and administrative expense of $175,000 in the 2005 Quarter when compared to the 2004 Quarter is primarily due to additional legal and consulting fees.

          Corporate other expense (income) is primarily comprised of:

          For the three months ended March 31, 2005, other expense was $733,000, compared to other income of $709,000 in the same period in 2004. The 2005 Quarter other expense was primarily related to an adjustment to the value of certain non-cinema and non-rental real estate assets resulting in an impairment expense and an increase of interest expense over the prior year due to our increased borrowings related to our 2004 acquisitions. The 2004 Quarter other income was primarily related to gains recognized for currency fluctuation in connection with certain cash transfers that were transacted in the first quarter of 2004.

Acquisitions

          Pending Cinemas 1, 2 & 3 Land Acquisition. In August 2004, we entered into an agreement to purchase for $12 million the approximately 7,840 square-foot fee interest underlying our current leasehold estate in the Cinemas 1, 2 & 3 property located in Manhattan on 3^rd Avenue between 58^th Street and 59^th Street. In January 2005, we increased our deposit down payment on the property from $800,000 to $4.0 million and agreed to an increase in the purchase price from $12.0 million to $12.2 million. In return, we acquired an extension of the contract period until June 1, 2005. Although we are working to close this acquisition, no assurances can be given that sufficient financing will be obtained to complete the acquisition.

          205-209 East 57^th Street Associates, LLC. On September 14, 2004, we acquired for $2.3 million a non-managing membership interest in 205-209 East 57^th Street Associates, LLC a limited liability company formed to redevelop our former cinema site at 205 East 57^th Street in Manhattan. As this project is in its development stage, the joint venture had no operating activity for the period ended March 31, 2005. Our membership interest represents a 25% interest in the LLC, and was issued to us by 205-209 East 57^th Street Associates, LLC in consideration of a capital contribution equal to 25% of its total book capital, calculated after taking into account the effect of our capital contribution. During the first quarter of 2005, we increased our investment by $963,000 in the 205-209 East 57^th Street Associates, LLC. The increase in investment was done to maintain our 25% equity ownership in the joint venture in light of certain increases in budgeted construction costs.

19

Business Plan, Capital Resources and Liquidity

Business Plan

          Our cinema exhibition business plan is to continue to identify, develop and acquire cinema properties, focusing, where reasonably available, on those opportunities where we can acquire either the fee interest underlying such operating assets, or long term leases, which provide flexibility with respect to the usage of such leasehold estates. Our real estate business plan is to continue to develop our existing land assets, focusing principally on uses that incorporate entertainment elements such as cinemas, and to continue to be sensitive to opportunities to convert our entertainment assets to higher and better uses – such as the ongoing redevelopment of our Sutton Cinema property into residential and retail condominium units.

          We are currently concentrating our acquisitions and development activities primarily in Australia and New Zealand, as we believe that there are currently better opportunities in these markets than domestically. Additionally, we intend to dispose of our interest in Puerto Rico. We continue to close under-performing cinema assets, or to sell or put to other purposes those cinema assets which have value as real estate significantly in excess of their value as cinemas.

Contractual Obligations

          The following table provides information with respect to the maturities and scheduled principal repayments of our secured debt and lease obligations at March 31, 2005 (in thousands):

Liquidity and Capital Resources

          Our ability to generate sufficient cash flows from operating activities in order to meet our obligations and commitments drives our liquidity position. This is further affected by our ability to obtain adequate, reasonable financing and/or to convert non-performing or non-strategic assets into cash. We cannot separate liquidity from capital resources in achieving our long-term goals in order to meet our debt servicing requirements.

          Currently, our liquidity needs arise mainly from:

20

Operating Activities

          Cash used in operations was $3.6 million in the 2005 Quarter compared to $3.1 million in the 2004 Quarter. The increase in cash used in operations of $462,000 is due primarily to:

Investing Activities

          Cash used in investing activities during the first three months of 2005 was $9.8 million compared to $73,000 during the same period in 2004. The 2005 Quarter’s increase was primarily due to $6.0 million in purchases of property and equipment for the most part related to the on-going construction work on our Newmarket development in Brisbane, Australia; a $963,000 increase in our investment in the 205-209 East 57^th Street Associates, LLC; and a $3.4 million additional deposit made to acquire the Cinemas 1, 2, 3 property in New York City.

Financing Activities

          Cash provided by financing activities was $7.7 million for the first three months of 2005 compared to cash used in financing activities of $833,000 during the same period in 2004. This increase is primarily attributable to our increase in borrowings of $7.8 million primarily used to finance the on-going construction work on our Newmarket development in Brisbane, Australia.

Summary

          Our cash position at March 31, 2005 was $7.0 million compared to $12.3 million at December 31, 2004. The majority of the $5.3 million change related to the following transactions:

Critical Accounting Policies

          The Securities and Exchange Commission defines critical accounting policies as those that are, in management’s view, most important to the portrayal of the company’s financial condition and results of operations and the most demanding in their calls on judgment. Although accounting for our core business of cinema and live theater exhibition with a real estate focus is relatively straightforward, we believe our most critical accounting policies relate to:

21

These critical accounting policies are fully discussed in our 2004 Annual Report and you are advised to refer to that discussion.

Financial Risk Management

          Our internally developed risk management procedure, seeks to minimize the potentially negative effects of changes in foreign exchange rates and interest rates on the results of operations. Our primary exposure to fluctuations in the financial markets is currently due to changes in foreign exchange rates between U.S and Australia and New Zealand, and interest rates.

          After the Consolidation on December 31, 2001, we began recognizing unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses. As our operational focus continues to shift to Australia and New Zealand, unrealized foreign currency translation gains and losses could materially affect our financial position. We currently manage our currency exposure by creating natural hedges in Australia and New Zealand. This involves local country sourcing of goods and services as well as borrowing in local currencies.

          Our exposure to interest rate risk arises out of our long-term debt obligations. Consistent with our internally developed guidelines, we seek to reduce the negative effects of changes in interest rates by changing the character of the interest rate on our long-term debt, converting a fixed rate into a variable rate and vice versa. Our internal procedures allow us to enter into derivative contracts on certain borrowing transactions to achieve this goal. As detailed in our 2004 Annual Report, our Australian credit facilities provide for floating interest rates but require that not less than a certain percentage of the loans be swapped into fixed rate obligations using the derivative contracts.

          In accordance with SFAS No. 133 Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, we marked our Australian interest swap instruments to market on the consolidated balance sheet resulting in an $472,000 (AUS$613,000) decrease to interest expense during the first quarter of 2005. We have recorded the fair market value of our interest rate swaps of $338,000 (AUS$437,000) as an other long-term liability. In accordance with SFAS No. 133, we have not designated any of our current interest rate swap positions as financial reporting hedges.

Inflation

          We continually monitor inflation and the effects of changing prices. Inflation increases the cost of goods and services used. Competitive conditions in many of our markets restrict our ability to fully recover the higher costs of acquired goods and services through price increases. We attempt to mitigate the impact of inflation by implementing continuous process improvement solutions to enhance productivity and efficiency and, as a result, lower costs and operating expenses. In our opinion, the effects of inflation have been managed appropriately and as a result, have not had a material impact on our operations and the resulting financial position or liquidity.

22

Litigation

          We are currently, and are from time to time, involved with claims and lawsuits arising in the ordinary course of our business. Some examples of the types of claims are:

          Where we are the plaintiffs, we expense all legal fees on an on-going basis and make no provision for any potential settlement amounts until received. In Australia, the prevailing party is entitled to recover its attorneys fees, which typically works out to be approximately 60% of the amounts actually spent where first class legal counsel is engaged at customary rates. Where we are a plaintiff, we have likewise made no provision for the liability for such attorneys in the event we were determined not to be the prevailing party.

          Where we are the defendants, we accrue for probable damages, which may not be covered by insurance, as they become known and can be reasonably estimated. In our opinion, any claims and litigation in which we are currently involved are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial position or liquidity. However, we do not give any assurance as to the ultimate outcome of such claims and litigation. The resolution of such claims and litigation could be material to our operating results for any particular period, depending on the level of income for such period. Our current litigation is fully described in our Company’s 2004 Annual Report and you are advised to refer to that discussion.

Forward-Looking Statements

          Our statements in this interim quarterly report contain a variety of forward-looking statements as defined by the Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements reflect only our expectations regarding future events and operating performance and necessarily speak only as of the date the information was prepared. No guarantees can be given that our expectation will in fact be realized, in whole or in part. You can recognize these statements by our use of words such as, by way of example, “may,” “will,” “expect,” “believe,” and “anticipate” or other similar terminology.

          These forward-looking statements reflect our expectation after having considered a variety of risks and uncertainties. However, they are necessarily the product of internal discussion and do not necessarily completely reflect the views of individual members of our Board of Directors or of our management team. Individual Board members and individual members of our management team may have different view as to the risks and uncertainties involved, and may have different views as to future events or our operating performance.

          Among the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or underlying our forward-looking statements are the following:

23

          The above list is not necessarily exhaustive, as business is by definition unpredictable and risky, and subject to influence by numerous factors outside of our control such as changes in government regulation or policy, competition, interest rates, supply, technological innovation, changes in consumer taste and fancy, weather, and the extent to which consumers in our markets have the economic wherewithal to spend money on beyond-the-home entertainment.

24

          Given the variety and unpredictability of the factors that will ultimately influence our businesses and our results of operation, it naturally follows that no guarantees can be given that any of our forward-looking statements will ultimately prove to be correct. Actual results will undoubtedly vary and there is no guarantee as to how our securities will perform either when considered in isolation or when compared to other securities or investment opportunities.

          Finally, please understand that we undertake no obligation to publicly update or to revise any of our forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable law. Accordingly, you should always note the date to which our forward-looking statements speak.

          Additionally, certain of the presentations included in this interim quarterly report may contain “pro forma” information or “non-GAAP financial measures.” In such case, a reconciliation of this information to our GAAP financial statements will be made available in connection with such statements.

Item 3 – Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Market Risk

          The Securities and Exchange Commission requires that registrants include information about potential effects of changes in currency exchange and interest rates in their filings. Several alternatives, all with some limitations, have been offered. The following discussion is based on a sensitivity analysis, which models the effects of fluctuations in currency exchange rates and interest rates. This analysis is constrained by several factors, including the following:

          Although the results of such an analysis may be useful as a benchmark, they should not be viewed as forecasts.

          At March 31, 2005, approximately 49% and 23% of our assets were invested in assets denominated in Australian dollars (Reading Australia) and New Zealand dollars (Reading New Zealand), respectively, including approximately $5.5 million in cash and cash equivalents. At December 31, 2004, approximately 48% and 25% of our assets were invested in assets denominated in Australian dollars (Reading Australia) and New Zealand dollars (Reading New Zealand) including approximately $9.3 million in cash and cash equivalents.

          Our policy in Australia and New Zealand is to match revenue and expenses, whenever possible, in local currencies. As a result, a majority of our expenses in Australia and New Zealand have been procured in local currencies. Due to the developing nature of our operations in Australia and New Zealand, our revenue is not yet significantly greater than our operating expense. The resulting natural operating hedge has led to a somewhat neglible foreign currency effect on our earnings.

          Our policy is to borrow in local currencies to finance the development and construction of our ETRC’s in Australia and New Zealand whenever possible. As a result, the borrowings in local currencies have provided somewhat of a natural hedge against the foreign currency exchange exposure. Even so, approximately 64% and 30% of our Australian and New Zealand assets, respectively, remain subject to such exposure unless we elect to hedge our foreign currency exchange between the US and Australian and New Zealand dollars. At the present time, we have no plan to hedge such exposure.

25

          Commencing in 2002, we also began recognizing unrealized foreign currency translation gains or losses which could materially affect our financial position. As of March 31, 2005 and December 31, 2004, we have recorded a cumulative unrealized foreign currency translation gain of approximately $32.8 million and $32.4 million, respectively.

          Historically, we maintained most of our cash and cash equivalent balances in short-term money market instruments with original maturities of three months or less. Some of our money market investments may decline in value if interest rates increase. Due to the short-term nature of such investments, a change of 1% in short-term interest rates would not have a material effect on our financial condition.

Item 3A – Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure about Interest Risk

          The majority of our U.S. bank loans have fixed interest rates; however, one of our domestic loans has a variable interest rate and a change of approximately 1% in short-term interest rates would have resulted in an approximately $5,000 increase or decrease in our Quarter 2005 interest expense.

          While we have typically used fixed rate financing (secured by first mortgages) in the U.S., fixed rate financing is typically not available to corporate borrowers in Australia and New Zealand. The majority of our Australian and New Zealand bank loans have variable rates. The Australian facilities provide for floating interest rates, but require that not less than a certain percentage of the loans be swapped into fixed rate obligations (see Financial Risk Management above). If we consider the interest rate swaps, a 1% increase in short-term interest rates would have resulted in approximately $616,000 increase in our Quarter 2005 Australian and New Zealand interest expense while a 1% decrease in short-term interest rates would have resulted in approximately $613,000 decrease 2005 Quarter Australian and New Zealand interest expense.

Item 4 – Controls and Procedures

          We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s Exchange Act reports, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure. In designing and evaluating the disclosure controls and procedures, management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives, and our management is required to apply its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

          Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined under Rule 13a-15(e) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and our principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.

          No change in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2005 that has materially affected, or is likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
