(1) Theater level cash flow and Adjusted EBITDA are supplemental non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations of these metrics to the net loss for the three and twelve months ended June 30, 2013 and 2012 are included in the supplementary tables accompanying this news announcement.
Digiplex Chairman and CEO Bud Mayo stated, “The fiscal fourth quarter was a productive period for Digiplex and also for the U.S. box office. Industry admissions receipts grew approximately 7.8% versus the prior year and our Company achieved revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, and theater level cash flow increases, due to the 116 additional average screens under operation, compared to the 2012 fiscal fourth quarter, as well as internal operational improvements during a favorable box office environment.
“Of note, the 2013 fiscal fourth quarter marks the first time in our organization’s short history that over one million patrons attended Digiplex’s locations. We continue to focus on providing our valued customers with high quality service and a clean and friendly environment to enjoy the best selection of popular Hollywood titles, specially curated independent pictures and exciting alternative programming events. We are also driving incremental theater traffic through unique social media and targeted marketing strategies.
“An exciting development during fiscal Q4 was the opening of our first IMAX® location, at Digiplex’s Surprise Pointe 14 theater in Arizona. We are extremely pleased to form a new alliance with IMAX® and will evaluate potential additional large format locations that feature their leading entertainment experience as the Digiplex circuit continues expanding. Subsequent to fiscal year-end, we also 4D-enabled an auditorium at our Solon, OH theater with the installation of immersive ButtKicker seating. We will continue experimenting with state-of-the-art technologies that further enhance the enjoyment of our guests.
“Throughout fiscal 2013, Digiplex opportunistically identified and completed acquisitions in attractive markets that adhere to our theater level cash flow and asset quality criteria. As a result, our organization nearly tripled its average screen count versus the prior year. We completed the purchase of a state-of-the art, fully digital 12-plex in Lisbon, CT during the fiscal first quarter, in fiscal Q2 we acquired seven theaters and 74 screens from UltraStar Cinemas on the west coast and we added two additional theaters with an aggregate of 19 screens in Solon, OH and Sparta, NJ during fiscal Q3. Additionally, subsequent to our year-end we acquired a 6-plex in Torrington, CT, further expanding the Company’s circuit to 19 locations and 184 screens.
“We are proud of our achievements to date, but acknowledge that we are still in the early stages of expanding Digiplex’s footprint to the 100 location/1000 screen goal we have set as a corporate milestone. Our top priority continues to be executing disciplined growth through opportunistic acquisitions. As we build scale, roll new theaters onto our digital platform, and leverage the Company’s corporate infrastructure and operating disciplines, over time we expect to achieve meaningful improvements in both top- and bottom-line results,” Mr. Mayo concluded.

Consolidated TLCF
|
$ | 1,922 | $ | 701 | $ | 5,633 | $ | 1,251 | ||||||||
(1) TLCF is intended to be a measure of theater profitability. Therefore, our corporate general and administrative expenses have been excluded.
(2) Represents the fair value of shares of Class A common stock and restricted stock awards issued to employees and non-employees for services rendered. As these are non-cash charges, we believe that it is appropriate to show Adjusted EBITDA excluding this item.
(3) Primarily represents professional fees incurred in connection with start-up activities, the creation of acquisition template documents that will be used by us for future transactions, and certain other costs related to our acquisition strategy. Since we intend to acquire additional theaters, we have laid the groundwork for our acquisition program and we expect to incur reduced legal fees in connection with future acquisitions. We therefore believe that it is appropriate to exclude these items from Adjusted EBITDA.
(4) To add back management fees to Digiplex from JV.
(5) Represents non-cash deferred rent expense which is included in our facility lease expense in the consolidated statements of operations. As these are non-cash changes, we believe it is appropriate to show TLCF and Adjusted EBITDA excluding this item.
