Combined Prospect Better for Carmike Shareholders than Standalone Carmike Has Consistently Traded at a Discount to Peers Carmike has traded at an average discount of 1.3x to the peer median over the last 10 years, and 1.0x to AMC since IPO We believe Carmikes valuation discount to peers is due to: - Lack of scale - Slowing M&A pipeline for growth - Earnings shortfalls (relative to Street expectations) $196 (23%) - Weaker operational and productivity metrics - No annual dividend 13 Source: Carmike SEC proxy filing.
