Imax Corp. has appointed Jennifer Horsley as Senior Vice President Investor Relations to oversee the large-format exhibition and technology platform’s growing global IR strategy and access to the investment community. He joined ad technology firm Taboola, where he was part of the core executive team that took the company public last year.
Horsley will be based in New York and will report to Imax CFO Natasha Fernandez.
“Jennifer has an excellent track record of helping tech companies at critical moments in their evolution; Fernandez is a strategic thinker and effective communicator with a successful track record of building strong and long-lasting relationships with investors.” “His leadership will be invaluable to IMAX as we continue to strengthen our unique model, capitalize on the enduring success of blockbusters, and expand our global platform with new growth opportunities.”
“I am excited to join one of the most innovative global entertainment technology companies, IMAX, and work with Rich, Natasha and their team to communicate our compelling investment proposition,” Horsley said, referring to Rich Gelfond, Imax CEO. “IMAX is uniquely positioned at the nexus of top creators and consumers and differentiates itself with its proprietary technology platform, global reach and low-equity business model. I can’t wait to share this story and the power of the IMAX experience.”
Horsley has over two decades of experience in investor relations, financial management, strategic planning and communications. Prior to Taboola, he served as vice president of investor relations at Xerox.
Imax stock, along with much of the media, is on the decline as the company clusters around shows in general, a key component of its movie network theatrical distribution, ie. jaws At Imax this weekend. Going forward, he wants Wall Street to see itself more broadly as an entertainment technology innovator that brings together custom software, architecture, and hardware to create experiences that “lift you beyond your couch,” according to today’s release. A world you never imagined.
At the end of June, there were 1,694 Imax theaters in 87 countries/regions.
