AMC Entertainment is expected to experience growth in fourth-quarter revenues, propelled by a strong increase in attendance.

The television industry is at the beginning of an era that can be termed “the great rebundling,” said AMC Networks CFO Patrick O’Connell.
AMC Entertainment is expected to experience growth in fourth-quarter revenues, propelled by a strong increase in attendance.

Speaking at a J.P. Morgan conference on Tuesday, O’Connell pointed to the Disney-Charter deal as a model for streaming services moving forward. He argued with more bundling, and more ad-supported linear networks being added to the paid TV ecosystem, these packages will be a better value for customers, rather than subscribing to several streaming services, which have been raising prices and cutting down content spend.
AMC Networks, he argued, “overdelivers audience vis-à-vis our current affiliate share” in its linear business, which he believes can translate to the streaming business. This argument comes after the company recently reported fourth-quarter earnings that saw an increase of 2.7 percent in its streaming subscribers, to reach 11.4 million, and a drop in U.S. ad sales by 23 percent year over year, amid what the company saw as a tough advertising market and an ongoing decline in linear TV ratings. $AMC Networks (AMCX.US)$ $AMC Entertainment (AMC.US)$
