RE: Coronavirus vaccine likely to accelerate demand for UK M&A, with pandemic losers such as Cineworld a18 Nov 2020 21:37
Rock8, if that's the case he also shafts himself given his significant holding through his family. The debt repayments sit at £160M per year on multi £B turnover on a normal year with significant profit & dividend, so the model works. What they need is support/headroom to get through to Q2 and pick up the $200M from the US. Think about it, that covers 12 months debt repayments in 1 chunk. Due to the lack of assets, Mooky has a strong hand with the lenders so both get a workable solution to get back to solid figures. Some folk on there liken Cine to Woolworths or Carpetright... Cine has a proven lucrative business model which with the right support will be back to normal by Q4 2021.
