Leases [Abstract]
Leases	NOTE 19 – LEASES In all leases, whether we are the lessor or lessee, we define lease term as the non-cancellable term of the lease plus any renewals covered by renewal options that are reasonably certain of exercise based on our assessment of economic factors relevant to the lessee. The non-cancellable term of the lease commences on the date the lessor makes the underlying property in the lease available to the lessee, irrespective of when lease payments begin under the contract. As Lessee We have operating leases for certain cinemas and corporate offices, and finance leases for certain equipment assets. Our leases have remaining lease terms of 1 to 20 years, with certain leases having options to extend to up to a further 20 years. Contracts are analyzed in accordance with the criteria set out in ASC 842 to determine if there is a lease present. For contracts that contain an operating lease, we account for the lease component and the non-lease component together as a single component. For contracts that contain a finance lease we account for the lease component and the non-lease component separately in accordance with ASC 842. In leases where we are the lessee, we recognize a right of use asset and lease liability at lease commencement, which is measured by discounting lease payments using an incremental borrowing rate applicable to the relevant country and term of the lease as the discount rate. Subsequent amortization of the right of use asset and accretion of the lease liability for an operating lease is recognized as a single lease cost, on a straight-line basis, over the term of the lease. Lease term includes option periods where we determine that we are reasonably certain to be exercising those options. A finance lease right-of-use asset is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the lesser of the useful life of the leased asset or the lease term. Interest on each finance lease liability is determined as the amount that results in a constant periodic discount rate on the remaining balance of the liability. Property taxes and other non-lease costs are accounted for on an accrual basis. Lease payments for our cinema operating leases consist of fixed base rent, and for certain leases, variable lease payments consisting of contracted percentages of revenue, changes in the relevant CPI, and/or other contracted financial metrics. As a result of the impacts of COVID-19, we have obtained certain concessions from our landlords. We have elected to account for these concessions as if there have been no changes to the underlying contracts, thereby recognizing abatements secured as variable lease expenses, and increasing payables for lease payment deferrals. The components of lease expense are as follows: December 31,(Dollars in thousands) 2021 2020Lease cost Finance lease cost: Amortization of right-of-use assets $ 49 $ 93Interest on lease liabilities 5 8Operating lease cost 33,782 33,462Variable lease cost (7,068) (4,445)Total lease cost $ 26,768 $ 29,118 ‎ Supplemental cash flow information related to leases is as follows: December 31,(Dollars in thousands) 2021 2020Cash flows relating to lease cost Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities: Operating cash flows for finance leases $ 53 $ 105Operating cash flows for operating leases 26,057 14,060Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for new operating lease liabilities $ 39,090 $ (2,054) Supplemental balance sheet information related to leases is as follows: December 31,(Dollars in thousands) 2021 2020Operating leases Operating lease right-of-use assets $ 227,367 $ 220,503Operating lease liabilities - current portion 23,737 22,699Operating lease liabilities - non-current portion 223,364 212,806Total operating lease liabilities $ 247,101 $ 235,505Finance leases —Property plant and equipment, gross $ 374 $ 383Accumulated depreciation (311) (271)Property plant and equipment, net $ 63 $ 112Other current liabilities 40 49Other long-term liabilities 28 69Total finance lease liabilities $ 68 $ 118 Other information Weighted-average remaining lease term - finance leases 2 3Weighted-average remaining lease term - operating leases 11 11Weighted-average discount rate - finance leases 5.24% 5.27%Weighted-average discount rate - operating leases 4.47% 4.71% The Maturities of our leases were as follows: (Dollars in thousands) Operating ‎leases Finance ‎leases2022 $ 34,324 $ 432023 34,281 282024 32,838 —2025 30,855 —2026 28,608 —Thereafter 158,713 —Total lease payments $ 319,619 $ 71Less imputed interest (72,518) (3)Total $ 247,101 $ 68 As of December 31, 2021, we have additional operating leases, primarily for cinemas, that have not yet commenced of approximately $8.7 million.

Lease components consist of fixed base rent, and for certain leases, variable lease payments consisting of contracted percentages of revenue, changes in the relevant CPI, and/or other contracted financial metrics.
