Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
NATURE OF OPERATIONS	NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND LIQUIDITY Cinedigm Corp. ("Cinedigm," the "Company," "we," "us," or similar pronouns) was incorporated in Delaware on March 31, 2000. We are (i) a leading distributor and aggregator of independent movie, television and other short form content managing a library of distribution rights to thousands of titles and episodes released across digital, physical, theatrical, home and mobile entertainment platforms and (ii) a leading servicer of digital cinema assets for over 12,000 movie screens in both North America and several international countries. We report our financial results in four primary segments as follows: (1) the first digital cinema deployment (“Phase I Deployment”), (2) the second digital cinema deployment (“Phase II Deployment”), (3) digital cinema services (“Services”) and (4) media content and entertainment group (“Content & Entertainment” or "CEG"). The Phase I Deployment and Phase II Deployment segments are the non-recourse, financing vehicles and administrators for our digital cinema equipment (the “Systems”) installed in movie theatres throughout the United States, and in Australia and New Zealand. Our Services segment provides fee based support to over 12,000 movie screens in our Phase I Deployment and Phase II Deployment segments, as well as directly to exhibitors and other third party customers, in the form of monitoring, billing, collection and verification services. Our Content & Entertainment segment is focused on: (1) ancillary market aggregation and distribution of entertainment content and; (2) a branded and curated over-the-top ("OTT") digital network business, providing entertainment channels and applications. We are structured so that our digital cinema business (collectively, the Phase I Deployment, Phase II Deployment and Services segments) operates independently from our Content & Entertainment segment. Liquidity We have incurred net losses historically and have an accumulated deficit of $379.2 million as of December 31, 2017. We may continue to generate net losses for the foreseeable future. In addition, we have significant debt related contractual obligations for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018 and beyond. We continue to expect cash flows from our Phase I and II deployment operations will be sufficient to satisfy our liquidity and contractual requirements that are linked to these operations. As of December 31, 2017, we had approximately $43.6 million of outstanding debt principal that relates to, and is serviced by, our digital cinema business and is non-recourse to us. We also had approximately $37.3 million of outstanding debt principal that is a part of our Content & Entertainment and Corporate segments of which $2.0 million was paid subsequent to December 31, 2017. On November 1, 2017, in connection with the Stock Purchase Agreement (the "Stock Purchase Agreement") with Bison Entertainment Investment Limited, an affiliate of Bison Capital Holding Company Limited (“Bison”), we sold 20,000,000 shares of our Class A Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $30.0 million, of which 19,666,667 shares were sold to Bison, and 333,333 shares were sold to the CEO of the Company. In addition, we consummated exchange agreements with holders of our remaining 5.5% Convertible Notes due 2035 ("Convertible Notes"), whereby $46.3 million principal amount of the Convertible Notes were exchanged for a combination of $17.1 million cash and 2,221,457 shares of Class A Common Stock. The Convertible Notes were immediately retired. On November 7, 2017, we repurchased the remaining balance of $0.5 million of Convertible Notes from the holder for cash and the Convertible Notes were immediately retired. As a result of the of the transactions described above, Bison became a majority shareholder of the outstanding Class A Common Stock and designated two (2) members of the Company’s Board of Directors, the size of which is set at seven (7) members. Bison Note Payable In accordance with the Stock Purchase Agreement, on December 29, 2017, the Company entered into a loan agreement with Bison Entertainment and Media Group, another affiliate of Bison Capital Holding Company Limited, pursuant to which the Company borrowed $10,000,000 (the “Loan”). The Loan matures on June 28, 2021 and bears interest at 5% per annum, payable quarterly in cash. The principal is payable upon maturity. The Loan is unsecured and may be prepaid without premium or penalty, and contains customary covenants, representations and warranties. The proceeds of the Loan will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. As part of this loan, the Company also issued warrants to purchase 1,400,000 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock (the “Warrants”). See Note 6 - Stockholders' Deficit for discussion of the Warrants. We believe the combination of: (i) our cash and restricted cash balances at December 31, 2017, which includes the net proceeds received from Bison for the issuance of 19,666,667 shares and from the Loan, (ii) implemented and planned cost reduction initiatives, (iii) retirement of the full outstanding amount of Convertible Notes, and (iv) expected cash flows from operations will be sufficient to satisfy our liquidity and capital requirements for at least a year after these consolidated interim financial statements are issued. Our capital requirements will depend on many factors, and we may need to develop and formulate operating plans with Bison to use available capital resources and raise additional capital. Failure to generate additional revenues, raise additional capital or manage discretionary spending could have an adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and liquidity.
