Embattled cinema company Ster-Kinekor's business rescue practitioners have pinned their hopes on the recent release of Top Gun: Maverick, which far exceeded opening weekend expectations. | Fin24

This is according to the latest update from the entertainment company's business rescue practitioners.

Ster-Kinekor is SA's largest cinema group with about 65% of market share. It was negatively impacted by the Covid-19 lockdowns - especially the hard lockdown - affecting its ability to pay debts as and when they fell due. This resulted in the board opting for business rescue in January 2021.
