B. Riley lowered the firm's price target on AMC Entertainment (AMC) to $1.75 from $3.25 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. The firm reviewed 4Q25 and previews exhibitor earnings with a slightly more subdued but still positive outlook following a weak holiday box office, a reassessed film slate, and potential valuation pressure from Warner Bros. Discovery (WBD)-related developments, the analyst tells investors in a research note.

Reason
Roth Capital keeps a Neutral rating and $3 price target on AMC Entertainment. The company's better than projected Q3 results, ongoing market share gains, and additional debt refinancing are positive steps forward, but even with the box office's growth in 2025 and further expansion anticipated in 2026, its free cash flow is projected to remain negative and additional equity issuances are likely, the analyst tells investors in a research note.
