1Total screens figures are forecasts as of February 2012. IHS Screen Digest revised the estimates

for China and India significantly downward from 2010 levels, affecting the Asia Pacific and global totals.

  • Over half of the worldwide cinema screens have

already converted to digital format

  • Approximately 30% of worldwide cinema

screens are 3-D capable

  • Digital

drives incremental admissions, concessions and advertising revenues by enabling theatres to show alternative content (i.e. Opera, Sports, Concerts, etc.) at off-peak times in addition to Hollywood films; DCIN utilizes preshow advertising supplied by National CineMedia (NasdaqGS: NCMI)

  • Alternative content represented 7% of DCIN’s

admissions revenues in 1H’F12; 10% December quarter
