Thank you for your email.
As AMC has already announced, the AMC Shareholder Meeting previously scheduled for May 4, 2021 has been rescheduled for July 29, 2021, with a new record date of June 2, 2021. All stockholders of record whose trades have settled as of June 2, 2021 will be eligible to vote their shares prior to or at the July 29th shareholder meeting.
On June 3, 2021 the company announced the following:
1) The number of issued and outstanding shares as of June 2, 2021 was 501,780,240. More details can be found here: investor.amctheatres.com/newsroom/default.aspx
2) AMC has filed a new PRELIMINARY proxy statement, which can be found here: d18rn0p25nwr6d.cloudfront.net/...3-4f62-93ea-876f94253840.pdf
Investors are encouraged to read all the proxy related materials filed with the SEC and found on the AMC Investor Relations website here: investor.amctheatres.com/...formance/sec-filings/default.aspx
A final proxy statement is expected to be filed with the SEC on June 16, 2021. Shortly thereafter, the proxy and voting materials will be mailed or emailed to eligible individual investors known to AMC, and to brokerage firms holding shares on behalf of investors in street name. Such investors are encouraged to reach out to their brokers in the latter part of June or early in July if proxy materials have not yet been forwarded to them by their brokers.
VOTING DOES NOT BEGIN UNTIL AFTER THE FINAL PROXY STATEMENT HAS BEEN ISSUED ON OR ABOUT JUNE 16, 2021.
If your brokerage firm does not allow you to vote, your shares will still be included in the count of issued and outstanding shares if you own shares as of June 2, 2021.
If your brokerage firm does not allow you to vote, you can do two things:
1) You will also be able to contact our proxy solicitor after the final proxy materials have been issued on June 16, 2021to see if they can confirm your ownership, and if they can, you can vote through them. The information about our proxy solicitor is available in the preliminary proxy statement. PLEASE DO NOT CONTACT THE PROXY SOLICITOR BEFORE JUNE 16, 2021, or AMC will incur unnecessary expense.
2) Transfer your shares to a brokerage firm that does allow voting.
If you're a current stockholder, let us know by signing up at our new AMC Investor Connect webpage. Please visit our new AMC Investor Connect webpage at www.amctheatres.com/stockholders to find out more. As an international investor joining AMC Stubs Insider (so you may sign up for AMC Investor Connect) you should pick "AMC Empire 25" as your favorite theatre. Investors anywhere in the world may sign up for AMC Investor Connect, but initially the free popcorn launch reward can only be redeemed at a U.S. theatre. AMC is currently reviewing its ability of extending the redemption of future offers at its international theatres on a country-by-country basis.
