"We are pleased to report record revenues and another strong third quarter, driven by record results for Marcus Theatres. The division significantly outperformed the industry for the fifth consecutive quarter. Marcus Hotels & Resorts also reported record third quarter revenues, although operating income was reduced by the temporary impact of construction for the conversion of our downtown Chicago hotel into one of the first AC Hotels by Marriott in the U.S.," said Gregory S.
