Exhibit 99.1
Estimated Box Office on RealD-Enabled Screens for
Final Month and Three Month Periods of Q4 FY 2012
LOS ANGELES (April 10, 2012) - RealD Inc. (NYSE: RLD) today announced that for the final monthly period of RealDs fourth quarter of fiscal 2012, box office on RealD-enabled screens is estimated to be approximately $249 million ($154 million domestic, $95 million international). The final monthly period of RealDs fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 is the five week period from February 18, 2012 through March 23, 2012.
For the entire fourth quarter of fiscal 2012, box office on RealD-enabled screens is estimated to be approximately $589 million ($337 million domestic, $252 million international). RealDs fourth quarter of fiscal 2012 began on December 24, 2011 and ended on March 23, 2012. All of RealDs quarters are 13 weeks in duration.
Note: international box office reflects RealDs estimates of international box office generated on RealD-enabled screens in 20 foreign countries where box office tracking is available. RealD estimates these countries represent approximately 90% of RealDs international license revenues. In addition, the announcements of estimated box office on RealD-enabled screens may contain currently updated estimates for prior monthly periods within the quarter.

This release includes forward-looking information and statements concerning the estimated box office on RealD-enabled screens domestically and internationally for the five-week and for the quarter-to-date periods. These statements are based on RealDs current expectations and beliefs, as well as a number of assumptions concerning future events. Such forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors, many of which are outside RealDs control that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. RealDs annual and quarterly reports include a more detailed discussion of the risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements.
RealD undertakes no obligation to update publicly the information contained in this press release, or any forward-looking statements, to reflect new information, events or circumstances after the date they were made, or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
RealDs estimates of box office on RealD-enabled screens rely on box office tracking data, and should not be construed as an estimate of RealDs revenues in any period.
