Share Repurchases
In 3Q24, RCI repurchased 202,630 common shares for $9.2 million (average $45.27 per share). As of August 5, 2024, RCI repurchased an additional 133,244 common shares for $6.0 million (average $44.86 per share), resulting in 8,996,546 shares of common stock outstanding and $22.9 million in remaining purchase authorization.
Eric Langan, President and CEO, said:
"The third quarter reflected the first full quarter of our Back to Basics approach to business and our Capital Allocation Strategy. We are taking aggressive action to increase revenues, reduce costs, and expand margins, concentrating on our club business and buying back stock, all with the goal of increasing free cash flow per share.
"Nightclubs achieved record revenues, increasing year over year, on a same-store basis, and from last quarter. While operating margin was negatively impacted by non-cash impairments, it increased sequentially on a non-GAAP basis.
"Bombshells revenues are now up two quarters in a row. While operating margin was similarly affected by non-cash impairments, it expanded sequentially on a non-GAAP basis. These improvements reflected the new marketing and cost cutting moves implemented mid-February.
"Finally, I’m pleased to report that as of last week we have reached our short-term buyback objective of reducing shares outstanding to less than 9 million. As part of that effort, we bought back a total of 700,000 shares in the open market since February 2022, reducing our share count by the same number used in our big October 2021 and March 2023 acquisitions, and we did it at a 22% discount to the average share price used in those transactions.2
"Looking ahead, we are laser focused on opening our reformatted and new clubs and Bombshells currently under development; rebuilding Baby Dolls Fort Worth as quickly and efficiently as possible; reviewing all operating units to ensure they meet our financial objectives; selling non-income producing real estate to free up more cash and/or reduce debt; and using our cash flow to facilitate the buyback of more shares and acquisition of clubs."

3Q24 Results (Comparisons are to the year-ago period unless indicated otherwise)
Nightclubs segment: Revenues of $62.8 million increased by 0.6%, primarily reflecting 1.7% same-store sales growth and two new and reformatted clubs, partially offset by the temporary closing of clubs being reformatted to liquor from BYOB and severe weather in Texas and South Florida.3 By type of revenue, alcoholic beverages increased by 4.9%; food, merchandise and other increased by 5.1%; and service decreased by 5.3%. The differing growth rates primarily reflected a higher alcohol and lower service sales mix from clubs acquired over the past year and a half.
Non-cash impairment totaled $7.6 million compared to $2.6 million, resulting in operating income and margin of $13.6 million and 21.7% of revenues compared to $20.4 million and 32.7%, respectively. Non-GAAP operating income and margin was $21.9 million and 34.9% of revenues compared to $23.6 million and 37.7%, respectively.
Compared to last quarter, revenues increased by 5.8%, and operating margin was 21.7% compared to 18.6%. On a non-GAAP basis, operating margin was 34.9% compared to 33.4%. The non-GAAP margin increase reflected higher sales, including service, and reduced costs.
Bombshells segment: Revenues of $13.1 million declined 8.7%, primarily reflecting a 16.2% decline in SSS and temporary closings due to severe weather in Texas, partially offset by three locations not in SSS (Bombshells in San Antonio and Stafford in Texas and Cherry Creek Food Hall & Brewery in Greenwood Village, CO, with its Bombshells Kitchen).3
Non-cash impairment totaled $10.3 million, resulting in an operating loss and margin of $8.9 million and (67.8)% of revenues compared to income of $1.7 million and 11.8%, respectively. Non-GAAP operating income and margin was $1.4 million and 10.8% of revenues compared to $1.8 million and 12.8%, respectively. The decline in profitability primarily reflected lower SSS.
Compared to last quarter, revenues increased 2.9%, and operating margin was (67.8)% of revenues compared to 5.5%. On a non-GAAP basis, operating margin was 10.8% compared to 5.9%. The revenue and non-GAAP margin increases reflect the first full quarter of changes initiated mid-February 2024.
Corporate segment: Expenses totaled $7.2 million or 9.4% of total revenues compared to $6.3 million and 8.1%, respectively. Non-GAAP expenses totaled $6.4 million or 8.4% of total revenues compared to $5.8 million or 7.5%, respectively. The expense increase primarily reflected additional corporate level management, accounting and professional services due to recently acquired clubs, and new projects. Compared to 2Q24, expenses increased 5.4% and expense margin was flat at 9.4%, and on a non-GAAP basis, 8.4% compared to 8.8%.
Other charges included $7.6 million in goodwill, SOB and leasehold improvements impairment related to six clubs and $10.3 million in operating lease right-of-use asset and leasehold improvements impairment related to five Bombshells.
Income taxes were a benefit of $1.4 million compared to an expense of $2.3 million. The effective income tax rate was 21.5% compared to 20.1%.
Weighted average shares outstanding of 9.28 million decreased 1.6% due to share buybacks partially offset by shares issued in the 2Q23 Baby Dolls-Chicas Locas acquisition.
Debt was $245.4 million at June 30, 2024 compared to $231.9 million at March 31, 2024. The increase reflected a previously announced $20 million bank loan, partially offset by scheduled pay downs.
2 A total of 700,000 shares valued at $46.0 million were used in our big October 2021 (500,000 shares @ $60) and March 2023 acquisitions (200,000 shares @ $80). The first 700,000 shares bought back in the open market since February 2022 after the 2021 acquisition were acquired for $35.9 million (average $51.31 per share). This represents a discount of $10.1 million or 22% of the value of shares used in the two acquisitions.

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) impairment of assets, (c) settlement of lawsuits, (d) gains or losses on sale of businesses and assets, (e) gains or losses on insurance, and (f) 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) impairment of assets, (c) settlement of lawsuits, (d) gains or losses on sale of businesses and assets, (e) gains or losses on insurance, (f) stock-based compensation, 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 11.7% and 21.6% effective tax rate of the pre-tax non-GAAP income before taxes for the nine months ended June 30, 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) impairment of assets, (c) income tax expense (benefit), (d) net interest expense, (e) settlement of lawsuits, (f) gains or losses on sale of businesses and assets, (g) gains or losses on insurance, and (h) stock-based compensation. 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.
