MoviePass™ and MoviePass Films Announce New Strategic Direction

MoviePass™ Refocuses its Business Model to No Longer Depend on
Revenues from Studios and Exhibitors

NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–lt;a href=”https://twitter.com/search?q=%24AAPL&src=ctag” target=”_blank”gt;$AAPLlt;/agt; lt;a href=”https://twitter.com/hashtag/Gambinocrimefamily?src=hash” target=”_blank”gt;#Gambinocrimefamilylt;/agt;–Following the previously announced intention to create a vertically
integrated film production and exhibition company called MoviePass
Entertainment Holdings Inc., MoviePass™ and MoviePass Films announced
their new business strategy going forward.

MoviePass™ and MoviePass Films plan to implement a new business model
that prioritizes self-generated revenues without dependence on studios
or exhibitors, to build more reliable revenue streams.

The future growth of the MoviePass™ group of companies will require us
to take advantage of the rapidly evolving media landscape. To maximize
our audience reach, we plan to focus on technological innovation and
high-quality content production through our three key channels –
MoviePass™ (theatrical subscription service); MoviePass Films (original
content production company) and Moviefone™ (multimedia media information
and advertising service).

Below are the highlights of our strategic vision:

• Our new business model no longer depends on achieving revenues from
  studios or exhibitors to succeed, but instead will prioritize the
  economic relationship among our MoviePass™ subscription service,
  MoviePass Films production business and Moviefone™ multimedia media
  information and advertising service.
• We believe the MoviePass™ subscription service will enhance box office
  results of MoviePass Films productions, and that revenues from our
  MoviePass Films productions will help fuel an expansion of our
  MoviePass™ subscription service, with the Moviefone™ multimedia media
  information and advertising service supporting the entire group of
  MoviePass™ companies.
• By seeking to generate new revenues and profit centers within our own
  ecosystem, we believe we can accelerate our overall growth in the U.S.
  market.
• MoviePass™, MoviePass Films, and Moviefone™ plan to work together in a
  much more interconnected fashion and share resources across each
  company.
• MoviePass Films will seek to optimize its platform to accelerate
  content production for theatrical release as well as expand
  distribution deals for in-home video, and retail, transactional and
  international sales.
• We believe this new model will enable us to increase our revenue per
  MoviePass™ subscriber.
• We also believe this new model will significantly enhance our
  subscriber satisfaction and retention by enabling us to increase
  inventory on the MoviePass™ subscription service, thereby providing a
  more consistent subscriber experience for the casual moviegoer.
• We remain committed to offering a wide inventory of movies and
  enhanced box office results for our industry partners.
• Our strategy will also focus on technology development, building
  stronger deterrents to prevent violations of the MoviePass™ terms of
  use that are costly to us and damaging to the MoviePass™ community of
  casual moviegoers.

“By spending the last several months analyzing the many different
aspects of our prior business model, in terms of what worked and what
didn’t, I believe we’ve been able to illuminate the path forward. We’ve
taken a deep dive to understand our unique ecosystem and I believe we’re
now ready to move forward at a rapid pace. I see this as an exciting
time for MoviePass and its sister companies, because we’re taking our
original vision for subscription, altering it for the better, and
proceeding with significant clarity,” said Ted Farnsworth, CEO of
MoviePass’ parent company, Helios and Matheson Analytics Inc.

“We have gained a tremendous amount of insight into moviegoers and the
industry over this past year and a half. MoviePass™ subscription,
MoviePass Films and Moviefone™ now have a winning combination that we
believe will drive consumers to our films, and re-energize casual
moviegoers to go more often and see great films in local theaters –
films that consumers often wait to see much later through streaming
services,” Mitch Lowe, CEO of MoviePass.

“We always believed in the MoviePass™ value proposition for filmmakers.
Now, after witnessing how MoviePass™ subscribers can positively impact
box office results of our own movies, I must say the opportunity of this
partnership is bigger than I ever thought it would be,” said Randall
Emmet, Co-CEO of MoviePass Films. “At the end of the day, we believe we
will be getting people back in movie theater seats, this time to the
benefit of our companies and the MoviePass™ community of casual
moviegoers. That’s exciting and certainly a game-changer,” concluded Mr.
Emmett.
