Rick's Cabaret International, Inc. Reports Net Income Of $2.94 Million, 30 Cents Per Share, For Second Quarter Ending March 31st


Total Revenues Rise 21.9% to $22.4 Million

HOUSTON - (May 11, 2010) - Rick's Cabaret International, Inc. [NASDAQ-GM:RICK] the nation's leading chain of upscale gentlemen's clubs, today reported net income for its second quarter ending March 31, 2010 of $2.94 million or 30 cents per share, compared with $839,471 or nine cents per share in the same quarter in 2009.

The company incurred one-time costs of $246,300 related to now-terminated negotiations for the acquisition of VCG Holdings. Without these costs, net income attributable to Rick's Cabaret would have been two cents higher per share for the second quarter.

"Our improved performance in the second quarter is the result of higher sales as well the increased focus on our bottom line that we announced during our last conference call," said Eric Langan, President and CEO of Rick's Cabaret. "Decreased marketing costs in Las Vegas and in Dallas/Fort Worth also contributed to improved results," he said.

Mr. Langan will discuss the results in detail during a conference call and webcast today at 4:30 p.m. EDT. The call is being webcast by Vcall and can be accessed at the Rick's Cabaret website, www.ricks.com or www.InvestorCalendar.com. The live toll free participant dial In number is (877) 407-8033, while international callers should use (201) 689-8033. The domestic toll free replay number is (877) 660-6853 while international callers should use (201) 612-7415. Replay passcodes required for playback are: Account #: 286 and Conference ID #: 350402. Details are also available in the company’s Form 10-Q filed with the SEC and available on the company's investor webpage at www.ricksinvestor.com.

The company attributed the revenue increase of 21.9 percent primarily to increases in same club sales. Revenues for same-location-same-period of club continuing operations increased 14.9% to $20 million in the second quarter compared with 2009, partly as a result of increased business during the Super Bowl in Miami and the NBA All Star Game in Dallas in February 2010. The company's two new locations also contributed to the overall revenue increase.

Legal and professional expenses were lower, following the settlement in the first quarter of a labor lawsuit in Minnesota, which had been accrued in the quarter ended September 30, 2009.

The company also reduced before tax losses at certain clubs losing money during the second quarter to approximately $391,000, compared to $1.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 and $900,000 for the March 31, 2009 quarter. The significant losing club in the prior quarter was Rick's Cabaret Las Vegas, which lost $500,000 in the first quarter ended December 31, 2009 and $633,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2009. The Las Vegas club made a profit of approximately $150,000 before income taxes for the quarter ended March 31, 2010.
