The debt-to-equity ratio of Cinemark Holdings Inc has shown a significant increase over the past few years, indicating a higher reliance on debt to finance its operations and investments.

From March 2020 to June 2022, the ratio steadily increased from 1.49 to 11.90, which suggests a substantial rise in debt relative to equity during this period. This rapid increase may raise concerns about the company's financial leverage and ability to service its debt obligations.

Furthermore, reaching a peak of 12.70 in September 2022, the ratio began a gradual decline, indicating a possible effort to reduce debt levels or increase equity. By September 2023 and December 2023, the ratio dropped to 0.00, signaling a temporary shift to a debt-free position or a reallocation of debt and equity components.

Overall, the fluctuation in the debt-to-equity ratio of Cinemark Holdings Inc reflects changes in its capital structure and financial strategy, highlighting the evolving financial risk profile of the company over the analyzed period.
