yeah, always room for a takeover at some point, more profit here on the food and central London locations that the big boys can not move into. and it would need to be a heavy takeover price if it did ever happen. 4th largest chain, at some point Vue or Odeon or Cineworld or Showcase cinemas will have to improve their margins and the real profit comes from the food and drink sales. The distributor takes between 50 & 60% of the ticket price after VAT from the ticket sales. Also thanks to lockdown people are doing more experience events now and looking for better theming when they go out on the town now. people have been jerked into action after the boring monotony of lockdown to look for experience events I reckon and go out more again.
