Deal ends up being a $30 per share "bailout" for me.
I actually purchased Digital Cinema Destinations Corp after CKEC announced it would acquire it. DCIN converted into CKEC at $33.89 per share in August 2014. I immediately wrote $35 calls against the position; the goal was to have the shares quickly called away. It never happened. I kept writing calls and collecting premium on the way down.
Merger rumors appeared last March.
AMC is getting a good deal.
