"% of total stake" is the shares in this event against all the vested shares the person held that day, across every share class and holding entity, after that day's vesting. "n/a" means the person's holdings don't reconcile, or the row is a purchase. "Holdings record incomplete" means more shares were sold than the filings show the person held that day, so a percentage would be wrong.

Is this normal? Less than usual: no sales, against a 5-year average of 743K shares a year. 0 insiders sold; the average is 5 a year. Year by year

17 of 18 insiders fully reconciled: starting holdings plus reported transactions match ending holdings (15 exactly, 2 with a minor or footnoted difference). For 1 we show sales but not holdings; the ! icon on that row explains why. Percentages cover 17 of 18 officers and directors. Left out: Mark Way (holdings couldn't be fully reconciled). "Still held" compares ending with starting vested shares; a plus sign means the holding grew.

Is this normal? Selling year by year5 earlier years to compare with

Less than usual: no sales, against a 5-year average of 743K shares a year. 0 insiders sold; the average is 5 a year.

Open-market sales (Form 4 code S) by people who were officers or directors, in split-adjusted shares. Earlier years include people who have since left. A sale that an outside holder also reports (a family trust, a fund) is counted with outside holders in every year. Shares, not dollars, are compared, so a change in the stock price doesn't look like a change in selling. Years the filings don't fully cover are shown but left out of the average.

Known gaps and uncertainty1 insider whose holdings couldn't be fully reconciled

Mark Way: holdings couldn't be fully reconciled (difference of 7,760 shares). Balance changed without a matching transaction, and the footnote does not state the amount: +7,760 shares on Jan 8, 2026 (Direct). Filing, Jan 8, 2026

Footnote: "Shares of Issuer's Class A Common Stock ("Shares") were issued upon the vesting of certain Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs") originally granted in 2023, under the Issuer's 2013 Equity Incentive Plan ("2013 EIP"). Each RSU represents the right to receive one Share upon vesting. One-third of the total grant vested based upon the Reporting Person's continued employment. | Shares were issued upon the vesting of certain RSUs originally granted in 2024, under the Issuer's 2024 Equity Incentive Plan ("2024 EIP").

Carla Chavarria: minor difference of 720 shares. Difference is under 0.5% of holdings.

Daniel Ellis: minor difference of 30 shares. Difference is under 0.5% of holdings.

Inferred typo: the share class "AMC Preferred Equity Unit" is treated as the same class as "AMC Preferred Equity Units" on 1 holding line, because the two spellings are nearly identical and each balance carried over exactly. Example (Chris Cox, 1,250 shares): old title, new title

External context: we only cite outside events when a documented connection exists. None is shown for this period.

Sources and methodology641 filings from SEC EDGAR, and how we read them

All 641 Forms 3, 4 and 5 filed for AMC Entertainment (SEC CIK 1411579) from Dec 17, 2013 to Sep 28, 2026, retrieved from SEC EDGAR on Oct 8, 2026. Prices are the ones reported in each filing, often weighted averages. 27 filings were left out because AMC Entertainment filed them as an owner of another company's stock.

Holdings. Each holding line (a share class plus an owner, such as a trust or LLC) carries its last reported balance forward. Entities first reported during the period start at zero, so transfers between an insider's own trusts don't count as selling. Lines not reported for three years or more are listed separately and left out of totals.

Sales. A sale counts as under a 10b5-1 plan if its footnote cites one or the filing's Rule 10b5-1 box is checked, and as tax-related if its footnote cites tax obligations or sell-to-cover. Shares withheld by the company for taxes are listed separately. Sales with neither attribute are labeled "no plan disclosed".
