- 1 AMC stock price marks a fall for two continuous trading sessions, after the investors approve the split.
- 2 The movie-theater chain won stockholders’ agreement to sell new common stock and reverse stock split.
- 3 AMC stock price sheds 9.27% during the intraday session.
AMC stock price bleeds for two continuous trading sessions, as stockholders approved the 1-for-10 reverse stock split and related plans. The agreement is a step to enable the movie-theater chain to convert recently issued series of preference shares, APE, into common stock. AMC shareholders show support to the company’s decision as it continues to drain money because of deserted cinemas.
The result of the special shareholder meeting held by AMC Entertainments is predicted to lead the theater chain to continue cash inflow. Other aims include reduction of debt load through stock sales and increase in share base.
Obstacle already in way of AMC
AMC stock split and conversion is initiated to manage losses of the company and transform negative outflows to cash inflows. However, a Delaware Chancery Court injunction hearing scheduled for April 27 can obstruct any new debt-raising policies for AMC. The hearing is focused around the class-action lawsuit that accuses AMC of evading shareholders who were opposing addition of shares via preferred stock APE.
The Allegheny County Employees’ Retirement System had filed a class-action lawsuit against AMC and its board members. The complaint also seeks a temporary restraining order against the March 14 conversion vote. AMC Entertainments will have the flexibility to issue stock, exchange debt for shares or make any acquisitions, while the outcome of the injunction hearing is pending.
AMC Stock Price Action
AMC stock price has been under consolidation for the past few months. The price has moved in a range bound region, unable to break the resistance near $8.76. The recent action shows bearish momentum and a declining trend. AMC stock price has fallen for two continuous trading sessions and lost 9.27% in a single day. The trading volume suggests highly volatile market and selling pressure, especially after shareholders approving the conversion.
The Fib retracement levels show price, if it forms a rally, can face resistance at second level. AMC stock price, if successfully breaks the resistance, can rally near $16.80 to achieve a new high for 2023. The MACD forms a negative crossover and records ascending seller bars, showing flush of negative emotions among the existing investors. The RSI drops to reach the ceiling range, influenced by sellers’ gaining dominance, and exerting pressure.
Conclusion
AMC stock price has shed hugely in the past two trading sessions. The loss is attributed to shareholders’ approval to convert APE shares into common stock and execute 1-for-10 reverse stock split. The present market scenario suggests bears taking over, indicators slightly hint at future price reversal. The holders of AMC can trust the support level near $3.78.
