Airbnb hopes to raise up to $2.6B in mid-December IPO

Airbnb hopes to raise as much as $2.6 billion in its initial public stock offering this month, betting investors will see its home-sharing model as the future of travel. Itโ€™s a remarkable comeback for the company that delayed its IPO when the coronavirus pandemic crippled global travel in the spring. Airbnb has more than 7 million listings on its platform, run by 4 million hosts worldwide. But Airbnb has recovered more quickly than traditional hotels as travelers seek whole homes in rural areas far from crowds. Airbnb said it also expects more business people will book vacation rentals, since many can now work from home.

Another restaurant chain, Friendly's, hits wall in pandemic

FIC will sell essentially all of its assets to the restaurant company Amici Partners Group. The pandemic has hit the restaurant sector very hard, particularly chains like Friendly's that rely on people sitting down at tables. Traffic at full-service restaurant chains in the U.S. plummeted 48% in the April-June period, according to NPD Group.

Hundreds of Regal, Cineworld movie theaters to close

Cineworld Group Plc said Monday that it would close 536 Regal cinemas in the U.S. and 127 Cineworld and Picturehouse venues in the U.K. this week, affecting some 45,000 employees. Last week groups representing theater owners, movie studios and directors issued a plea to U.S. lawmakers to provide relief to ailing movie theaters. Cineworld had also been highly leveraged, having largely funded its acquisition of Regal Entertainment in 2018 through debt. Greidinger hopes that that might be settled before Christmas, in time for โ€œWonder Woman 1984.โ€โ€œI will be the happiest man to open the cinemas for โ€˜Wonder Woman," he said. โ€œBut we will also need to look beyond โ€˜Wonder Womanโ€™ to January and February.โ€
