Cinedigm Digital Cinema Passes 10,000 Digital Screen Signings Mark
(firmenpresse) - WOODLAND HILLS, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 01/10/12 -- (NASDAQ: CIDM) today announced it has signed more than 10,000 digital cinema screens in its combined Phase One and Phase Two digital cinema deployment. In total, given the company's previously contracted agreements, Cinedigm will deploy nearly 33% of all digital cinema screens in North America.
"Passing the 10,000 mark in digital screen conversion contracts is a huge milestone for both Cinedigm and the entire exhibition industry," said Cinedigm Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Chris McGurk. "This digital transformation has created a tremendous paradigm shift that will have long-lasting ramifications on all aspects of the theatrical industry. From the types of content shown in theatres, including LIVE 3D events and ongoing programs, to the overall management efficiencies and analytical information offered by digital theaters, digital conversion provides studios and theater companies with an entirely novel way of providing entertainment to the film-going community."
In the combined Phase One and Phase Two digital cinema deployment program, Cinedigm has:
Signed 10,007 screens overall
Installed 8,750 digital screens

"Our growing exhibitor partner-base has made it clear that Cinedigm is the number-one choice for exhibitors to entrust with their digital cinema program," he said. "With just over seven months remaining before the end of our rollout period in September 2012 per our studio agreements, we expect this enthusiasm and momentum in digital conversion to continue during the coming months."
