AMC Says New NCM Preshow Ads Don’t “Negatively Influence Moviegoing Habits”
- AMC Theatres will begin showing more advertising during pre-show segments starting July 1, 2025, under a new agreement with National CineMedia.
- AMC initially resisted such ads nearly six years ago, believing they would upset moviegoers, while competitors have shown ads without attendance loss.
- The new deal includes a 'platinum spot' shown just before films start and revenue sharing between AMC and National CineMedia to support AMC's financial recovery efforts.
- An AMC representative explained that over the last five years, the company has focused on generating essential income through means other than raising standard ticket prices, while maintaining ongoing promotions such as Discount Tuesday and introducing 50% off Wednesdays.
- AMC expects the advertising partnership to deliver vital income without harming moviegoing habits, helping maintain ticket value while bolstering non-ticket revenue streams amid industry recovery challenges.
