5i Research Answer:

CGX lost 19c per share vs estimates of -4c. Revenue of $315M missed estimates of $321M. It did announce a comprehensive refinancing package which gives it a bit more financial flexibility, but the balance sheet remains the biggest issue here. Attendance rose 4.2%, concession revenue per patron rose to $9.28 from  $8.77. With close to $2B in obligations, CGX spent $155M in interest charges last year. Essentially, all its cash is going to debt charges. It is hard to endorse and we think investors can move on.
