CEO Comment
Eric Langan, President and CEO, said: “As we previously reported, business was soft during 4Q23 due to the current uncertain economy as well as tough comparisons to last year’s post-Covid bounce. However, our capital allocation strategy continues to produce strong, long-term results.”
“EPS was $0.23 for 4Q23 and $3.13 for FY23, which were impacted by non-cash impairment charges of $9.3 million and $12.6 million, respectively. On a non-GAAP basis, EPS was $1.11 for 4Q23 and $4.90 for FY23. Total revenues increased 5.4% year-over-year for 4Q23 and 9.8% for FY23. Both periods benefited from acquisitions, which helped offset lower same-store sales year-over-year, but not all of the margin decline.”
“Looking at the big picture, proforma FY23 same-store sales increased 9.0% compared to pre-Covid FY19, with Nightclubs +8.3% and Bombshells +12.6%.3 From year-end FY15, when we initiated our capital allocation strategy, through FY23, we have generated compound annual growth of 10.2% for total revenues, 12.1% for adjusted EBITDA, and 17.2% for free cash flow.”
“Subsequent to 4Q23, we continued to move ahead with our strategies and plans, buying back more shares depending on market conditions, opening Bombshells Stafford, and working on potential acquisitions. We believe year-over-year comparisons should become easier in FY24.”

4Q23 Results (Comparisons are to 4Q22 unless indicated otherwise)
•Nightclubs Segment: Revenues were $60.9 million compared to $56.6 million. The $4.3 million increase primarily reflected the benefit of newly acquired and remodeled clubs, which more than offset the decline in same-store sales.4 By revenue type, alcoholic beverages increased 17.2%, food and merchandise 15.9%, and other 8.1%, while service declined 2.0%. The differing growth rates primarily reflected a higher alcohol and lower service sales mix from the newly acquired Baby Dolls-Chicas Locas clubs as well as lower same-store sales. 4Q23 also included other charges, net (mainly impairments) and SOB license amortization of $9.5 million compared to $1.1 million. Operating income was $12.1 million (19.8% of revenues) compared to $22.5 million (39.7% of revenues). On a Non-GAAP basis, operating income was $21.6 million (35.4% of revenues) compared to $23.6 million (41.6% of revenues).
•Bombshells Segment: Revenues were $13.6 million compared to $14.0 million. The $452 thousand decline primarily reflected lower same-store sales, partially offset by a $1.6 million increase from newly acquired locations.4 4Q23 also included other charges, net and amortization of $239 thousand. Operating income was $1.2 million (8.7% of revenues) compared to $2.2 million (15.5% of revenues). On a Non-GAAP basis, operating income was $1.4 million (10.4% of revenues) compared to $2.2 million (15.5% of revenues).
•Other Segment: Revenues were approximately level at $727 thousand. 4Q23 included other charges, net (mainly impairments) of $969 thousand. Operating income was a loss of $793 thousand compared to a profit of $216 thousand. On a Non-GAAP basis, operating income was $176 thousand compared to $277 thousand.
•Consolidated operating margin was 7.5% of revenues compared to 25.2% and 22.4% compared to 30.0% non-GAAP. The GAAP and non-GAAP differences reflected 4Q22’s unusually high operating leverage (the third highest in the last five years), which included a $1.0 million legal credit. The GAAP difference also reflected other charges, net of $9.9 million in 4Q23 compared to other gains, net of $890 thousand in 4Q22.
•Interest expense was 5.6% of revenues compared to 4.8% reflecting higher average debt mostly from seller-financed promissory notes related to FY22-23 acquisitions.
•Income tax was a benefit of $0.6 million compared to an expense of $4.0 million. For the year, the Effective Tax Rate was 19.0% compared to 23.4%. The FY23 ETR reflected higher federal state credits that offset a higher portion of income subjected to state income taxes.
•Weighted average shares outstanding increased 1.8% year over year due to shares used in the 2Q23 Baby Dolls-Chicas Locas acquisition, partially offset by subsequent share buybacks.
•Debt was $239.8 million at 9/30/23 compared to $243.8 million at 6/30/23. The difference primarily reflected scheduled paydowns.

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) gains or losses on sale of businesses and assets, (d) gains or losses on insurance, (e) settlement of lawsuits, (f) costs and charges related to debt refinancing, and (g) 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 attributable to RCIHH common stockholders and diluted earnings per share. Adjustment items are: (a) amortization of intangibles, (b) impairment of assets, (c) gains or losses on sale of businesses and assets, (d) gains or losses on insurance, (e) unrealized loss on equity securities, (f) settlement of lawsuits, (g) gain on debt extinguishment, (h) costs and charges related to debt refinancing, (i) stock-based compensation, (j) the income tax effect of the above-described adjustments, and (k) change in deferred tax asset valuation allowance. Included in the income tax effect of the above adjustments is the net effect of the non-GAAP provision for income taxes, calculated at 20.6%, 22.8%, and 13.5% effective tax rate of the pre-tax non-GAAP income before taxes for 2023, 2022, and 2021, respectively, and the GAAP income tax expense. 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 attributable to RCIHH common stockholders: (a) depreciation and amortization, (b) income tax expense (benefit), (c) net interest expense, (d) gains or losses on sale of businesses and assets, (e) gains or losses on insurance, (f) unrealized gains or losses on equity securities, (g) impairment of assets, (h) settlement of lawsuits, (i) gain on debt extinguishment, and (j) 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
2

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 the unleveraged performance return on our investments. Adjusted EBITDA multiple is also used as a 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.
