On April 17, 2026, the analyst firm B. Riley reiterated its "Neutral" rating for AMC Entertainment. A neutral or hold rating suggests that analysts believe investors should not buy or sell the stock at its current level. This action indicates the firm sees the stock as fairly valued for now.
Alongside the rating, B. Riley raised its price target on the company to $2.00 from $1.50. A price target is an analyst's projection of a stock's future price. This increase occurred when the stock was trading at $1.70, suggesting the firm sees some potential for the price to rise.
Investors are now looking toward AMC Entertainment's upcoming earnings release. The company is forecasted to report quarterly revenue of about $960.50 million. However, its projected Earnings Per Share (EPS) is -$0.36. EPS shows a company's profit per share, and a negative number means it is currently losing money.
