Vista Group acquires 100% of Cinema Intelligence


Vista Group International Limited (NZX & ASX:VGL) is pleased to announce that it has acquired the

remaining 50% of Cinema Intelligence from the founder and CEO Claudiu Tanasescu, with the net

consideration met from existing cash reserves. Claudiu will continue to work with Vista Group

following the transaction, assisting with the integration of Cinema Intelligence into Vista Cinema’s

products and driving the development and integration of intelligent algorithms into additional cinema

focused solutions.



Cinema Intelligence empowers cinema exhibitors to make smarter data-driven business decisions

with their Artificial Intelligence powered solution for forecasting, distributor negotiation, automated

scheduling, and business analysis. Cinema Intelligence capabilities have been integrated with more

and more of Vista Cinema’s deals with its large cinema circuit customers, with their increasing need

for a powerful business intelligence tool.


Vista Group Chief Executive, Kimbal Riley commented: “The time is right to bring the business fully

within the Group under Vista Cinema, and integrate its solutions within the overall Vista Cinema

software product suite. Access to advanced forecasting capabilities, allowing exhibitors to optimise

their cinemas operations, is more relevant than ever given the impact of the pandemic on the

industry.”
