Dilution is one of those dangerous invisible foes that takes money out of your pocket when you’re not looking. It’s like broader inflation in that regard. Indeed, dilution could be defined as equity inflation. The more shares that are created by a company, the less one’s existing stake is worth.

The company’s share count has more than quadrupled over its count last summer.</p>\n<p>At the time of writing, AMC’s market cap sits at $7.2 billion.

Remember, when theaters were full and we were crammed like sardines in a dark theatre together? Considering the likelihood of social-distancing and mask-wearing measures likely to be imposed for quite some time, this valuation doesn’t jive with reality.</p>\n<p><b>Don’t Forget About Deferred Costs</b></p>\n<p>The pandemic was so 2020.</p>\n<p>We’re all looking toward the end of the pandemic, focusing on vaccines and economic reopening stories rather than those of yesteryear.
