Shares of AMC Entertainment Holdings Inc (NYSE:AMC) fell after the court approved a revised stock conversion plan, which includes a one-for-ten reverse stock split and the conversion of APE units into common shares. The conversion of APE units could see AMC raise as much as $16 billion in incremental equity. AMC CEO Adam Aron said the company can use this access to equity capital to shore up cash reserves, pay down debt, invest in growth initiatives, and pursue merger and acquisition opportunities.
