Insights
The announcement of National CineMedia's (NCM) $100 million share repurchase program signals a strong vote of confidence by the company's board in its stock and financial health. Share buybacks are often used to return capital to shareholders and can indicate that the company believes its stock is undervalued. By leveraging operating cash flow for these repurchases, NCM is utilizing its generated cash in a way that can potentially enhance shareholder value. However, the flat revenue year-over-year and the decrease in total revenue for the fiscal year raise questions about growth prospects. Investors may scrutinize the company's strategic initiatives and their potential to drive future revenue increases.
Furthermore, the significant net income reported due to the cancellation of historical debt after NCM LLC's emergence from bankruptcy is a one-time event that investors should not expect to recur. The operating loss for the fiscal year and the contraction in adjusted OIBDA margin suggest underlying challenges in operational efficiency or market conditions that could affect long-term profitability. Investors will likely monitor the company's ability to manage these challenges while executing its capital return strategy.
NCM's increase in national advertising revenue, driven by a higher utilization rate, is a positive indicator of the company's ability to monetize its advertising platform. However, the decrease in local and regional advertising revenue, coupled with a drop in attendance, could be reflective of broader trends in the advertising industry or specific challenges in those market segments. The increase in active national advertisers and record revenue per attendee suggests that NCM is effectively leveraging its reach among moviegoers, a demographic that advertisers highly value for its youth and diversity.
However, the contraction in adjusted OIBDA margin may be a concern, as it might indicate rising costs or pricing pressures. The advertising industry is highly competitive and subject to rapid changes in technology and consumer behavior. NCM's strategic initiatives aimed at growing its advertising network will be important in maintaining and expanding its market position against these headwinds.
The mention of NCM LLC's Chapter 11 Case and related appeals indicates that the company has recently undergone a restructuring process. The legal and financial ramifications of emerging from Chapter 11 can be complex, often involving negotiations with creditors and adjustments to the company's capital structure. While the restructuring process can provide a path to reduce debt and improve the balance sheet, it can also lead to significant legal and administrative expenses.
Moreover, the reconsolidation of NCM LLC's intangible assets and the subsequent amortization expenses reflect the accounting adjustments that follow such legal proceedings. Stakeholders should be aware that these adjustments can significantly affect reported earnings and may not be indicative of the company's ongoing operational performance. It is essential to distinguish between these one-time restructuring impacts and the company's core operating metrics when evaluating its financial health.

“In 2023, NCM successfully re-established the importance of cinema for best-in-class advertisers, with movies driving the cultural conversation and the box office reaching its highest point since 2019,” said Tom Lesinski, CEO of NCM. “We are very encouraged by our strong fourth quarter performance, which led to a

In determining the amount of capital to allocate to share repurchases, the Company will take into account, among other things, its historical and expected business performance, cash and liquidity position, economic and market conditions, ongoing strategic initiatives and the market price of the Company’s common stock. The timing, manner, price, and amount of any repurchases under the share repurchase program will be determined by the Company in its discretion. Repurchases under the Company’s share repurchase program may be made through open market transactions (including the use of SEC Rule 10b5-1 trading plans), privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchases or other structured transactions, subject to market conditions and applicable legal requirements. The Company has no obligation to repurchase shares, and the share repurchase program may be modified, suspended, or discontinued at any time.

Unaudited
Adjusted OIBDA and Adjusted OIBDA Margin
Adjusted Operating Income Before Depreciation and Amortization (“Adjusted OIBDA”) and Adjusted OIBDA margin are not financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP in
Adjusted OIBDA represents operating income before depreciation and amortization expense adjusted to also exclude amortization of intangibles, non-cash share-based payment costs, executive transition costs, advisor fees related to abandoned financing transactions, impairment of long-lived assets, sales force reorganization costs, termination of the Regal ESA and advisor fees related to involvement in the Cineworld Proceeding and Chapter 11 Case. Our management use this non-GAAP financial measure to evaluate operating performance, to forecast future results and as a basis for compensation. The Company believes this is an important supplemental measure of operating performance because it eliminates items that have less bearing on its operating performance and highlight trends in its core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP financial measures. The Company believes the presentation of this measure is relevant and useful for investors because it enables them to view performance in a manner similar to the method used by the Company’s management, helps improve their ability to understand the Company’s operating performance and makes it easier to compare the Company’s results with other companies that may have different depreciation and amortization policies, amounts of amortization of intangibles, non-cash share-based compensation programs, executive transition costs, advisor fees related to abandoned financing transactions, impairment of long-lived assets, sales force reorganization costs, termination of the Regal ESA and advisor fees related to involvement in the Cineworld Proceeding and Chapter 11 Case, interest rates, debt levels or income tax rates.
Adjusted OIBDA margin is calculated by dividing Adjusted OIBDA by total revenue. Our management use this non-GAAP financial measure to evaluate operating performance, to forecast future results and as a basis for compensation. The Company believes this is an important supplemental measure of operating performance because it eliminates items that have less bearing on its operating performance and highlight trends in its core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on GAAP financial measures. The Company believes the presentation of this measure is relevant and useful for investors because it enables them to view performance in a manner similar to the method used by the Company’s management, helps improve their ability to understand the Company’s operating performance and makes it easier to compare the Company’s results with other companies that may have different depreciation and amortization policies, amounts of amortization of intangibles, non-cash share-based compensation programs, executive transition costs, advisor fees related to abandoned financing transactions, impairment of long-lived assets, sales force reorganization costs, termination of the Regal ESA and advisor fees related to involvement in the Cineworld Proceeding and Chapter 11 Case, interest rates, debt levels or income tax rates.
A limitation of both of these measures, however, is that they exclude depreciation and amortization, which represent a proxy for the periodic costs of certain capitalized tangible and intangible assets used in generating revenues in NCM LLC’s business. In addition, Adjusted OIBDA and Adjusted OIBDA margin have the limitation of not reflecting the effect of the Company’s depreciation, amortization of intangibles, non-cash share-based payment costs, executive transition costs, advisor fees related to abandoned financing transactions, impairments of long-lived assets, sales force reorganization costs, termination of the Regal ESA and advisor fees related to involvement in the Cineworld Proceeding or Chapter 11 Case. Adjusted OIBDA should not be regarded as an alternative to operating income, net income or as indicators of operating performance, nor should it be considered in isolation of, or as substitutes for financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company believes that operating income is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to Adjusted OIBDA, and operating margin is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure to Adjusted OIBDA margin. Because not all companies use identical calculations, these non-GAAP presentations may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies, or calculations in NCM LLC’s debt agreement.
The Company has not provided a reconciliation of the forward-looking non-GAAP Adjusted OIBDA measure to forward-looking GAAP operating income due to the inability to predict the amount and timing of impacts outside of the Company’s control on certain items, including the timing of revenue and charges reflected in our reconciliation of historic numbers, the amount of which, based on historical experience, could be significant and are difficult to reasonably predict. Accordingly, a reconciliation of this non-GAAP measure is not available without unreasonable effort.
The following table reconciles operating loss to Adjusted OIBDA for the periods presented (dollars in millions):
