PLANO, TX – Cinemark Holdings (NYSE:CNK), Inc. and its subsidiary Cinemark USA, Inc. have completed the early redemption process for their 5.875% Senior Notes due 2026. On Thursday, the company deposited sufficient U.S. government securities with Computershare Trust Company, N.A., the appointed trustee, to fully discharge the outstanding notes, including principal and accrued interest, by the redemption date of March 15, 2025.
The move to redeem the notes was announced on the same day with the trustee notifying the holders of the 5.8% Notes of the decision. The redemption will cover the entire outstanding principal amount of $59,715,000 at a redemption price of 100% of the principal value, plus accrued interest until the redemption date.
This action has effectively satisfied and discharged the indenture agreement governing the notes, which will no longer have effect except for certain provisions including rights of registration of transfer or exchange of the notes. The trustee has issued a Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture to evidence the completion of the process.
The 5.8% Senior Notes were initially set to mature on March 15, 2026, and the early redemption will conclude Cinemark USA's obligations under these specific notes. This financial maneuver comes as part of the company's broader strategy to manage its debt portfolio.
The information reported is based on a press release statement and the official filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission. This development may be of particular interest to investors and market analysts following Cinemark's financial strategies and debt management practices.
