CEO Comment

Eric Langan, President and CEO, commented: “In 3Q17, RCI generated one of the largest quarterly increases in same-store sales in the last five years. This was primarily due to the Nightclubs segment, where sales rose 8.0% on a same-store basis and 14.9% on a total basis.

“In same-store sales, we are seeing a broad based recovery around the country both in VIP spend and in customer count. This was a nice surprise given our third quarter is normally seasonally weaker. Total sales also benefited from our acquisitions of Hollywood Showclub in St. Louis (April 25th) and of Scarlett’s Cabaret Miami (May 8th), which contributed a combined $2.2 million in new volume. We were particularly pleased with the performance of Scarlett’s Cabaret Miami.

 

“Sales at our four existing Bombshells grew slightly on a same-store basis. Our fifth Bombshells is expected to open next week, on July 17th. We have broken ground on our sixth, picked out a property for our seventh, and plan to develop three more in 2018-2019. Customers continue to be attracted to our military theme and social dining concept with our Bombshells Girls, where you can have a great time, great food, watch the game, listen to music, and hang out with friends or family.

“Overall, we appear to be gaining momentum the same time as the economy appears to be. With our increases in same-store sales and our return to acquisition mode, management at all levels is excited about the prospects going forward.”
