Insights

RCI Hospitality's Q1 2025 results reveal a strategic transformation focused on profitability over pure revenue growth. While total revenues declined 3.2% to $71.5M, the company's EPS increased 31.2% to $1.01, demonstrating effective operational efficiency.

The Nightclubs segment's performance is particularly noteworthy, achieving 3.7% same-store sales growth despite macro headwinds. The $1.0M insurance gain from the Baby Dolls Fort Worth fire indicates strong risk management practices. The strategic acquisition of Flight Club for $11M total, with projected $2.0M annual EBITDA, represents an attractive 18.2% yield on investment.

The Bombshells segment transformation shows promising results. Despite a 24.7% revenue decline, operating margins improved significantly from 0.7% to 20.6%, validating the strategy of eliminating underperforming locations. The establishment of a $1.7M self-insurance reserve, while impacting current corporate expenses, should lead to long-term cost savings.

The company's capital allocation remains shareholder-friendly, with 66,000 shares repurchased at an average of $48.76. The 4.8% reduction in share count year-over-year enhances per-share metrics and demonstrates management's confidence in the business model. Free cash flow remained robust at $12.1M, nearly matching last year's $12.7M, despite the strategic transitions.

The improved effective tax rate of 16.9% versus 19.9% year-over-year contributes to enhanced bottom-line performance. The debt reduction to $235.5M from $238.2M shows continued focus on balance sheet optimization while maintaining growth investments.

HOUSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- RCI Hospitality Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: RICK) today reported results for the fiscal 2025 first quarter ended December 31, 2024. The Company also filed its Form 10-Q today.

1Q25 Summary (Comparisons are to the year-ago period unless indicated otherwise)

Eric Langan, President and CEO, said: "Nightclubs total and same-store sales increased, while GAAP and non-GAAP segment operating profit were approximately level with last year, despite the absence of a club due to fire in July. Bombshells total sales declined as expected with the sale/closure of underperforming locations, but GAAP and non-GAAP segment operating profit and margin improved. Consolidated net cash provided by operating activities and free cash flow nearly matched year-ago levels, and we continued to make progress with our Back to Basics 5-Year Capital Allocation Plan."

Back to Basics 5-Year Capital Allocation Plan (FY25-29)

  • 1Q25: Sale/closure of four underperforming Bombshells segment locations, for a total of five since September 2024.
  • 1Q25: Repurchased 66,000 common shares for $3.2 million ($48.76 average per share), with 8,889,000 shares outstanding at December 31, 2024.

  • 2Q25: Opened an 8,500 square-foot Bombshells in downtown Denver.

1Q25 Results (Comparisons are to the year-ago period unless indicated otherwise)

Nightclubs segment: Revenues of $61.7 million increased by 1.1%. Sales primarily reflected a 3.7% increase in same-store sales, three new and reformatted clubs in Texas, and the absence of Baby Dolls Fort Worth due to fire in July.2 By type of revenue, food, merchandise and other increased by 8.6%; alcoholic beverages increased by 3.0%; and service declined by 3.7%.

The quarter included a gain of $1.0 million from additional cash insurance proceeds related to the July fire. Operating income was $20.9 million (33.8% of segment revenues) compared to $20.4 million (33.4%).

Bombshells segment: Revenues of $9.6 million declined 24.7%. Sales primarily reflected the sale/closure of underperforming locations, a 7.5% decline in SSS, and a full quarter of the Stafford, TX location, which opened in mid-November 2023.2

Income tax expense was $1.85 million compared to $1.80 million. The effective tax rate was 16.9% compared to 19.9%.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to our financial information presented in accordance with GAAP, management uses certain non-GAAP financial measures, within the meaning of the SEC Regulation G, to clarify and enhance understanding of past performance and prospects for the future. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s operating performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes or includes amounts that are included in or excluded from the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. We monitor non-GAAP financial measures because it describes the operating performance of the Company and helps management and investors gauge our ability to generate cash flow, excluding (or including) some items that management believes are not representative of the ongoing business operations of the Company, but are included in (or excluded from) the most directly comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Relative to each of the non-GAAP financial measures, we further set forth our rationale as follows:

Non-GAAP Operating Income and Non-GAAP Operating Margin. We calculate non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP operating margin by excluding the following items from income from operations and operating margin: (a) amortization of intangibles, (b) settlement of lawsuits, (c) gains or losses on sale of businesses and assets, (d) gains or losses on insurance, and (e) stock-based compensation. We believe that excluding these items assists investors in evaluating period-over-period changes in our operating income and operating margin without the impact of items that are not a result of our day-to-day business and operations.

Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Net Income per Diluted Share. We calculate non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per diluted share by excluding or including certain items to net income or loss attributable to RCIHH common stockholders and diluted earnings per share. Adjustment items are: (a) amortization of intangibles, (b) settlement of lawsuits, (c) gains or losses on sale of businesses and assets, (d) gains or losses on insurance, (e) stock-based compensation, (f) gains or losses on lease termination, and (g) the income tax effect of the above-described adjustments. Included in the income tax effect of the above adjustments is the net effect of the non-GAAP provision for income taxes, calculated at 17.7% and 19.9% effective tax rate of the pre-tax non-GAAP income before taxes for the three months ended December 31, 2024, and 2023, respectively, and the GAAP income tax expense (benefit). We believe that excluding and including such items help management and investors better understand our operating activities.

Adjusted EBITDA. We calculate adjusted EBITDA by excluding the following items from net income or loss attributable to RCIHH common stockholders: (a) depreciation and amortization, (b) income tax expense, (c) net interest expense, (d) settlement of lawsuits, (e) gains or losses on sale of businesses and assets, (f) gains or losses on insurance, (g) stock-based compensation, and (h) gains or losses on lease termination. We believe that adjusting for such items helps management and investors better understand our operating activities. Adjusted EBITDA provides a core operational performance measurement that compares results without the need to adjust for federal, state and local taxes which have considerable variation between domestic jurisdictions. The results are, therefore, without consideration of financing alternatives of capital employed. We use adjusted EBITDA as one guideline to assess our unleveraged performance return on our investments. Adjusted EBITDA is also the target benchmark for our acquisitions of nightclubs.

We also use certain non-GAAP cash flow measures such as free cash flow. Free cash flow is derived from net cash provided by operating activities less maintenance capital expenditures. We use free cash flow as the baseline for the implementation of our capital allocation strategy.
