Wedbush analysts say IMAX Corp's position is secure despite reports that Disney is trying to form a coalition with other studios to compete with IMAX's premium screens. IMAX benefits from strong consumer branding and holds a large share of box office receipts, including Disney's upcoming 2027 releases already booked on IMAX screens. Analysts doubt Disney can easily win over major studios like Universal, which has a strong partnership with IMAX, and note regulatory challenges and the time needed to match IMAX's technology and global footprint. For now, Wedbush views the rival effort as a non-issue for IMAX.
