Rick's Cabaret International, Inc. Reports $22.8 Million In Revenue For Second Quarter; Adjusted Ebitda Rises To $6.6 Million

 
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
 
RICK’S CABARET INTERNATIONAL, INC. REPORTS $22.8 MILLION IN REVENUE FOR SECOND QUARTER; ADJUSTED EBITDA RISES TO $6.6 MILLION
 
HOUSTON – (May 10, 2011) – Rick’s Cabaret International, Inc. (NASDAQ:RICK), the nation’s leading group of upscale gentlemen’s clubs, today reported total revenues for its second quarter ended March 31, 2011 of $22.8 million, compared with $22.4 million for the same period last year. Rick’s Cabaret had total net income for the quarter of $2.9 million, the same as in the previous year, with fully diluted earnings per share of 29 cents, compared with 31 cents last year.  Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before income tax, depreciation and amortization) for the quarter rose to $6.6 million from $6.4 million in 2010.
 
The company will hold an investor conference call at 4:30 p.m. EDT today at which President and CEO Eric Langan will discuss the results.  The toll-free domestic call in number is 877-407-8033 and a webcast of the call is available at www.ricksinvestor.com or http://www.investorcalendar.com/IC/CEPage.asp?ID=164373.  Following the call the company will hold a “Due Diligence Ball” at its New York City Club (50 West 33rd Street) for investors and other interested persons.
 
“We had a solid quarter and I’m looking forward to discussing it in detail with our investors today,” said Mr. Langan. “Despite a big ice storm in Texas that weakened revenues anticipated from this year’s Super Bowl compared with 2010, we still did very well for the quarter and we are happy with our overall club results. We are also pleased with the Adjusted EBITDA number, which is a key metric we use to measure our performance.
 
“We have begun to eliminate losses at our Las Vegas location through the sharp reduction in operations we announced last month as we seek a buyer for the club.  We believe that we did everything possible to make the club work, but the Las Vegas market remains troubled and we believe it is now in our shareholders’ best interests to exit,” Mr. Langan said.  “Once our exit from this market it is complete we will have a better idea how we will do for the remainder of the year.”
 
For the six-month period ending March 31st Rick’s Cabaret had consolidated total revenues of $43.7 million compared to $42.4 million for the six months ended March 31, 2010.  Six month net income attributable to Rick’s Cabaret International Inc. was $5.0 million, compared with $3.7 million during the first six months of last year. Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended March 31st was $11.9 million, compared with $9.5 million last year.  
 
Note: Adjusted EBITDA is a financial statement measure that was not derived in accordance with GAAP. The company uses Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization and impairment charges) as a non-GAAP performance measure. In calculating adjusted EBITDA, the company excludes the largest recurring non-cash charge, depreciation, amortization and impairment charges. 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.  Also, the company excludes interest cost in the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA. The results are, therefore, without consideration of financing alternatives of capital employed. The company uses Adjusted EBITDA as one guideline to assess unleveraged performance return on investments. Adjusted EBITDA is also the target benchmark for acquisitions of nightclubs.
