Imax swung to a net loss of $49 million from a profit of $8 million the year before. It posted $35 million in revenue for the three months ended in March.

“In response to the virus, the company has implemented cost reductions and drew on its revolver, ending the quarter with $352.3 million in consolidated cash and its $300 million revolver fully drawn.

Imax is actively preparing to reopen to what is projected to be an IMAX-friendly second-half release slate. CEO Rich Gelfond and other executives will provide more details on a conference call the discuss the numbers this morning.
