Item 8.01 Other Events.
Cinemark Holdings, Inc. (the “Company” or “we”) has received a Civil Investigative Demand (a “CID”) from the Antitrust Division of the United States Department of Justice. That CID relates to an investigation under Sections 1 and 2 of the Sherman Act. We also have received a second CID from the Antitrust Section of the Office of the Attorney General of the State of Ohio regarding a similar inquiry under Ohio’s antitrust laws. The CIDs request us to answer interrogatories and produce documents related to the investigation of matters including film clearances, potential coordination and/or communication with other major theatre circuits and related joint ventures. We intend to fully cooperate with all federal and state government agencies. Although we do not believe that we have violated any federal or state antitrust or competition laws, we cannot predict the ultimate scope, duration or outcome of these investigations.
