Back in July, Cineworld revealed that its sites across Glasgow Parkhead, Bedford, Loughborough, Yate and Swindon Regent Circus would close in October.
The closures formed part of a major restructuring plan to keep the company’s head above water.
In October, a judge gave the go-ahead for £16million to be injected into Cineworld’s four companies which form the business.
The cash came from the business’s parent company, with an extra £35million to also be made available.
Its four companies. Cine-UK Ltd, Cineworld Cinemas Ltd, Cineworld Cinema Properties Ltd and Cineworld Estates Ltd, will also negotiate leases for each of their 101 sites across the UK.
This development follows a long period of trouble at Cineworld.
Just last year the business emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the US.
Filing for a Chapter 11 bankruptcy means a company intends to reorganise its debts and assets while remaining in business.
The company’s shares plunged almost 99 per cent in the five years to 2023, as it was hit particularly hard by the pandemic and the enforced closure of its cinema sites.
Shortly after, Cineworld’s UK arm collapsed into administration on July 31.
The cinema chain was de-listed from the London Stock Exchange a day later.
When a company enters management in the UK, all control is passed to a designated manager, that have to be a qualified bankruptcy specialist.
