3. Deferred income taxes
Based on substantively enacted corporate tax rates, expected timing of reversals and expected taxable income allocation to various tax jurisdictions, deferred income taxes are as follows:
|

December 31, 2024 |
|||||||

|
Net deferred income tax asset recognized |
$ | 10,833 | $ | 9,585 | ||||
At December 31, 2020 the recoverability of the net deferred income tax assets was uncertain and accordingly the net deferred tax assets were derecognized. During the second quarter of 2023, Cineplex Digital Media assessed the recoverability of net deferred income tax assets and determined that the expected return to profitability provided a reasonable expectation that previously derecognized net deferred income tax assets will be utilized to offset future periods of taxable income, resulting in income tax recovery of approximately $8,923 in the second quarter of 2023.
Cineplex Digital Media’s combined statutory income tax rate at June 30, 2025 was 26.5% (2024 - 26.6%).

Basis of preparation and measurement
CDM prepares its unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards applicable to the preparation of interim financial statements, including International Accounting Standard (“IAS”) 34, Interim Financial Reporting. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the use of certain critical accounting estimates. It also requires that management exercise judgment in applying CDM’s accounting policies. The disclosures contained in these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not contain all requirements of IFRS Accounting Standards for annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024. These unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of application as the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2024, with the exception of accounting standards issued since December 31, 2024.
