About IMAX CORP

IMAX Corp. is a United States-based company listed on the NYSE under the ticker IMAX, with its headquarters in New York, United States. Founded in 1967, IMAX has evolved into a global reference in premium theatrical entertainment by combining proprietary cinema technology, large-format projection systems, sound solutions, and a content ecosystem designed to elevate blockbuster presentation. For investors, the company should not be viewed only as a cinema-equipment supplier: its model also includes system sales and installations, maintenance and service, financing-related revenues, and box-office-linked economics across its global network. The core business centers on the development and commercialization of IMAX systems, including IMAX with Laser, large-format screens, audio solutions, specialized cameras, and remastering tools used for “Filmed For IMAX” releases. IMAX works closely with cinema exhibitors, film studios, and technology partners to expand its footprint and support a steady pipeline of premium event films. This has allowed the company to build a differentiated competitive position in the premium theater segment, where the value proposition is based on immersive audience experience rather than commodity content distribution. Geographically, IMAX has a broad international presence spanning North America, Asia-Pacific, Europe, the Middle East, and Latin America. That geographic diversification matters because the company’s performance is tied to the global circulation of Hollywood franchises as well as local-language hits in key theatrical markets. As of March 31, 2026, IMAX reported 1,798 systems in operation, underscoring a still-expanding installed base.

In first-quarter 2026 results, IMAX reported a backlog of 435 systems and reaffirmed full-year 2026 guidance, including a target of $1.4 billion in global box office, supported by a robust release slate featuring The Odyssey, Dune: Part Three, The Mandalorian and Grogu, and Narnia. The company also continued expanding internationally, including a major agreement with HOYTS in Australia and New Zealand and a partnership with Apple TV to bring live Formula 1 races to select IMAX locations in the United States. These developments point to an ongoing strategy focused on network expansion, premium content monetization, and brand strengthening.
