und direkt 1 Tag später kam der Antara-Deal aus der Schublade.

"AMC participated in discussions with certain of the Lenders (the “Lenders”) of Cineworld regarding a potential strategic acquisition by AMC, through a consensual plan in Cineworld’s ongoing Chapter 11 cases, including following the announcement in the Cineworld Chapter 11 proceedings that the Cineworld debtors were exploring strategic alternatives. The discussions focused on the acquisition of certain strategic theatre assets of Cineworld in the United States and Europe, which acquisition would be financed, in part, through the issuance by AMC of APEs and debt financing provided by the Lenders, and conditioned upon a liability management exercise with respect to certain indebtedness of AMC. During the course of discussions, the Company did not provide any confidential or non-public information, analyses, compilations, forecasts, studies or other documents to the Lenders. A definitive agreement with the Lenders has not been reached regarding the terms of any proposal to be presented to the debtors in the Cineworld cases, and at this time negotiations are not continuing. While AMC reserves the right to continue to explore the acquisition of value enhancing strategic assets, there can be no assurance that AMC will resume any discussions with the Lenders or, if it were to do so, that it would be able to agree with Lenders or any other party as to the terms of a mutually acceptable proposal. The Company has provided this statement pursuant to the terms of non-disclosure agreements with certain of the Lenders."
Ist das und der (eventuelle) Ch11-Erfolg von Cineworld nun eine doppelte Niederlage für AA oder nicht so bedeutend, weil es den Konkurrenten ja auch bisher schon gab ?
