NOTE ABOUT FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements include, among other things, statements regarding plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance and underlying assumptions and other statements, which are other than statements of historical facts. Forward-looking statements may appear throughout this report, including, without limitation, the following sections: Part I, Item 2 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” Forward-looking statements generally can be identified by words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “estimates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “predicts,” “projects,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties, which could cause our actual results to differ materially from those reflected in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and those discussed in other documents we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Important factors that in our view could cause material adverse effects on our financial condition and results of operations include, but are not limited to, the risks and uncertainties associated with (i) operating and managing an adult business, (ii) the business climates in cities where it operates, (iii) the success or lack thereof in launching and building the company’s businesses, (iv) cyber security, (v) conditions relevant to real estate transactions, (vi) the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, and (vii) numerous other factors such as laws governing the operation of adult entertainment businesses, competition and dependence on key personnel. We undertake no obligation to revise or publicly release the results of any revision to any forward-looking statements, except as required by law. Given these risks and uncertainties, readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward-looking statements.
As used herein, the “Company,” “we,” “our,” and similar terms include RCI Hospitality Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries, unless the context indicates otherwise.

1.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of RCI Hospitality Holdings, Inc. (the “Company,” “RCIHH,” “we,” or “us”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP” or “U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q of Regulation S-X. They do not include all information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The September 30, 2021 consolidated balance sheet data were derived from audited financial statements but do not include all disclosures required by GAAP. However, except as disclosed herein, there has been no material change in the information disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2021 included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 14, 2021. The interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with those consolidated financial statements included in the Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair statement of the financial statements, consisting solely of normal recurring adjustments, have been made. Operating results for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September 30, 2022
.

Recent Accounting Standards and Pronouncements
In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2019-12,
Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes
. This ASU simplifies accounting for income taxes by removing the following exceptions: (1) exception to the incremental approach for intraperiod tax allocation, (2) exceptions to accounting for basis differences when there are ownership changes in foreign investments, and (3) exception in interim period income tax accounting for year-to-date losses that exceed anticipated losses. The ASU also improves financial statement preparers’ application of income tax related guidance for franchise taxes that are partially based on income; transactions with a government that result in a step up in the tax basis of goodwill; separate financial statements of legal entities that are not subject to tax; and enacted changes in tax laws in interim periods. The ASU is effective for public business entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted for public business entities for periods for which financial statements have not been issued. An entity that elects early adoption in an interim period should reflect any adjustments as of the beginning of the annual period that includes that interim period. Additionally, an entity that elects early adoption should adopt all the amendments in the same period. We adopted ASU 2019-12 on October 1, 2021. Our adoption of this update did not have a significant impact on our consolidated financial statements.
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08,
Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers
. This ASU amends ASC 805 to require acquiring entities to apply ASC 606 to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities in business combinations. The ASU is effective for public entities for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. We are still evaluating the impact of this ASU but we do not expect it to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.
3.
Ongoing Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic and Potential Economic Slowdown
Our businesses were heavily impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic since its declaration as a national emergency in March 2020. We had a major disruption in our business operations that affected our cash flow. The pandemic resulted in a significant reduction in customer traffic in our clubs and restaurants due to changes in consumer behavior as social distancing practices, dining room closures and other restrictions were mandated or encouraged by federal, state and local governments. In 2021, our businesses started and continue to recover to date from the initial effects of the pandemic. There have been several variants to the coronavirus since then that threatened our operations throughout the period of recovery. We continue to adhere to state and local government mandates regarding the pandemic.
Since early 2021, there has been a worldwide increase in inflation. In the event this global inflation leads to a major economic downturn, our business operations and cash flow could be significantly affected.

Valuation of Goodwill, Indefinite-Lived Intangibles and Long-Lived Assets
We consider the COVID-19 pandemic as a triggering event in the assessment of recoverability of the goodwill, indefinite-lived intangibles, and long-lived assets in our clubs and restaurants that are affected. We evaluated forecasted cash flows considering a probable economic slowdown on sales and, to a lesser extent, the future assumed impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Based on the evaluation we conducted during the interim period ended June 30, 2022, we determined that our assets are impaired in a total amount of $
1.7
million comprised of $
400,000
in goodwill (for one club), $
1.0
million in property and equipment ($
379,000
for one club and $
650,000
for one Bombshells), and $
293,000
in SOB license (for one club). See Note 6.
4.
Acquisitions and Dispositions
On October 6, 2021, the Company sold a property classified as held-for-sale with a carrying value of $
3.0
million for $
3.2
million, of which $
2.7
million was in the form of a secured promissory note. This
7
% note receivable has a term of
eight years
and is collectible in equal monthly installments of $
21,544
in principal and interest with the remaining balance to be paid at maturity.
On October 8, 2021, the Company sold
one
of its clubs in South Houston for $
300,000
.
On October 18, 2021, we and certain of our subsidiaries completed our acquisition of
eleven
gentlemen’s clubs,
six
related real estate properties, and associated intellectual property for a total agreed acquisition price of $
88.0
million (with a total consideration preliminary fair value of $
88.4
million based on the Company’s stock price at acquisition date and discounted due to the lock-up period, with interest rates on promissory notes reflective of market yields). The acquisition was structured by entering into
nine
asset purchase agreements, which allowed the Company to acquire from each club all of the tangible and intangible assets and personal property in that business except certain excluded assets, and
two
stock purchase agreements, where a newly formed subsidiary purchased
100
% of the capital stock of
two
club-owning entities. Along with the asset and stock purchase agreements, the Company also entered into a real estate purchase and sale agreement for
six
real estate properties and an intellectual property purchase agreement for substantially all of the intellectual property used in the adult entertainment establishment businesses owned and operated by the sellers. The acquisition gives the Company presence in four additional states. We paid for the acquisition with $
36.8
million in cash, $
21.2
million in
four
seller-financed notes (see Note 7), and
500,000
shares of our common stock.
The preliminary fair value of the consideration transferred is as follows (in thousands):
Cash
$
36,800
Notes payable
21,200
Common stock
30,362
Total consideration fair value
$
88,362
We recognized the assets and liabilities for this acquisition based on our estimates of their acquisition date fair values, all in our Nightclubs reportable segment. We have not finalized our valuation of the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired in this transaction. As of the release of this report, the fair value of the acquired tangible and identifiable intangible assets are provisional pending receipt of the final valuations for those assets. Based on the allocation of the preliminary fair value of the acquisition price, measurement period adjustments and subject to any working capital adjustments, the amount of goodwill is estimated to be $
13.8
million. Goodwill represents the excess of the acquisition price fair value over the fair values of the tangibles and identifiable intangibles assets acquired and liabilities assumed, which is essentially the forward earnings potential of the acquired entities. Goodwill will not be amortized but will be tested at least annually for impairment. Approximately $
9.3
million of the recognized goodwill will be deductible for tax

In connection with this acquisition, we incurred acquisition-related expenses of approximately $
403,000
($
162,000
recognized in fiscal 2021 and $
241,000
recognized in fiscal 2022), of which $
30,000
and $
42,000
were expensed during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2021 and $
7,000
and $
241,000
were expensed during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022, and in those periods included in selling, general and administrative expenses in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income.
From the date of acquisition until June 30, 2022, the
eleven
acquired clubs contributed revenues of $
10.3
million and $
24.7
million and income from operations of $
3.6

The above unaudited pro forma financial information is presented for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have been achieved if the acquisition had taken place at the beginning of fiscal 2021. The unaudited pro forma financial information reflects material, nonrecurring adjustments directly attributable to the acquisition including acquisition-related expenses, interest expense, and any related tax effects. Since we do not have a final valuation of the assets that we acquired yet, the unaudited pro forma financial information only includes preliminary adjustments related to changes in recognized expenses caused by the fair value of assets acquired, such as depreciation and amortization and related tax effects. Pro forma net income and pro forma earnings per share include the impact of acquisition-related expenses and interest expense related to the
28
private lender group notes and
4
seller-financed notes in the acquisition as if they were incurred as of the first day of fiscal 2021. Pro forma weighted average number of common shares outstanding includes the impact of
500,000
shares of our common stock issued as partial consideration for the acquisition.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
On November 8, 2021, the Company acquired a club and related real estate in Newburgh, New York for a total preliminary purchase price of $
3.5
million, by which $
2.5
million was paid in cash at closing and $
1.0
million through a seller-financed
7-year
promissory note with an interest rate of
4.0
% per annum. The $
3.5
million acquisition price is preliminarily allocated $
2.0
million to real estate, $
200,000
to tangible assets, and $
1.3
million to goodwill, which is deductible for tax purposes. The note is payable $
13,669
per month, including principal and interest. See Note 7. The Company incurred approximately $
21,000
of acquisition-related costs for this acquisition, of which $
11,000
was incurred in fiscal 2021 and $
10,000
was incurred in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, both of which were included in selling, general and administrative expenses in our unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income. From the date of acquisition until June 30, 2022, the acquired club contributed revenues of $
433,000
and $
1,146,000
and loss from operations of $
5,000
and $
29,000
during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, which are included in our unaudited condensed consolidated statement of income. The Company is not providing supplemental pro forma disclosures to this acquisition as it does not materially contribute to the consolidated operations of the Company.
On December 30, 2021, the Company acquired the real estate of
one
of its clubs in South Florida, which the Company previously leased, for $
7.0
million in an all-cash purchase. At closing, the Company wrote off the balance of its operating lease right-of-use asset and corresponding operating lease liability related to the discontinued lease.
On March 1, 2022, the Company acquired real estate in Stafford, Texas for $
3.5
million for a future Bombshells location. The Company secured a $
2.6
million loan in relation to the purchase (see Note 7).
On March 1, 2022, the Company acquired real estate in Lubbock, Texas for $
400,000
to move one of our existing clubs due to eminent domain on the current location.
On March 23, 2022, the Company sold a property classified as held-for-sale with a carrying value of $
1.9
million for $
2.1
million in cash. The Company used $
816,000
of the proceeds to pay off a loan related to the property.
On May 2, 2022, the Company completed an acquisition of a club in Miami, Florida for a total acquisition price of $
16.0
million. The acquisition price includes $
3.0
million for the real estate property covered in a stock purchase agreement payable in cash at closing, and $
13.0
million for the adult entertainment business covered in a separate stock purchase agreement payable as follows: (1) $
2.0
million in cash at closing; (2) $
6.0
million under a
10
%
three-year
promissory note payable in
35
equal monthly payments of $
79,290
in principal and interest based on a
ten-year
amortization schedule, with a balloon payment for the remaining principal plus accrued interest due at maturity; and (3) $
5.0
million under a
10
%
ten-year
interest-only promissory note payable in
119
equal monthly payments of $
41,667
in interest, with a balloon payment of the total $
5.0
million in principal plus accrued interest due at maturity. The Company acquired
100
% of the capital stock of the acquired companies in each of the stock purchase agreements mentioned above. The $
5.0
million promissory note may be earlier canceled if there are any regulatory changes that would prohibit the business from operating as an adult entertainment establishment within
ten years
of the closing date of the stock purchase agreement. Based on recent renewals of licenses of similar businesses in the region where the club operates, the Company believes that the probability of any changes to the regulatory environment is low as of the reporting date and would not materially impact the fair value of the debt.
The preliminary fair value of the consideration transferred is as follows (in thousands) as of May 2, 2022:

Equity
On October 18, 2021, we partially paid for an acquisition using
500,000
shares of our common stock with a fair value of $
30.4
million at issuance. See Note 4.
On February 7, 2022, our board of directors approved the 2022 Stock Option Plan (the “2022 Plan”). The board’s adoption of the 2022 Plan is subject to approval of shareholders, and in the event that the 2022 Plan is not approved by the shareholders within one year of the date of adoption of the 2022 Plan by the board, or less than the required amount of votes of shareholders are received in favor of approval of the 2022 Plan at a duly held meeting of shareholders within one year of the board’s adoption of the 2022 Plan, then we will unwind and terminate the 2022 Plan, and all outstanding stock options granted under the 2022 Plan will be cancelled. The 2022 Plan provides that the maximum aggregate number of shares of common stock underlying options that may be granted under the 2022 Plan is
300,000
. The options granted under the 2022 Plan may be either incentive stock options or non-qualified options. The 2022 Plan is administered by the compensation committee of the board of directors. The compensation committee has the exclusive power to select individuals to receive grants, to establish the terms of the options granted to each participant, provided that all options granted shall be granted at an exercise price not less than the fair market value of the common stock covered by the option on the grant date, and to make all determinations necessary or advisable under the 2022 Plan.

million and $
10.1
million during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, compared to $
4.0
million and $
5.5
million during the three and nine months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. The effective income tax expense rate was

The Company or one of its subsidiaries files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction, and various states.

The Company ordinarily goes through various federal and state reviews and examinations for various tax matters.
On March 27, 2020, former President Trump signed the CARES Act into law. As a result of this, additional avenues of relief became available to workers and families through enhanced unemployment insurance provisions and to small businesses through programs administered by the Small Business Administration. The CARES Act included, among other

(Unaudited)
items, provisions relating to payroll tax credits and deferrals, net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credits and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property. The CARES Act also established a Paycheck Protection Program, whereby certain small businesses were eligible for a loan to fund payroll expenses, rent, and related costs. The loan may be forgiven if the funds are used for payroll and other qualified expenses. The Company submitted its application for a PPP loan and on May 8, 2020 received approval and funding for its restaurants, shared service entity and lounge. Ten of our restaurant subsidiaries received amounts ranging from $
271,000
to $
579,000
for an aggregate amount of $
4.2
million; our shared-services subsidiary received $
1.1
million; and one of our lounges received $
124,000
. None of our adult nightclub and other non-core business subsidiaries received funding under the PPP. The Company believes it has used the entire loan amount for qualifying expenses. Under the terms of the PPP, certain amounts of the loan may be forgiven if they are used for qualifying expenses as described in the CARES Act. The Company utilized all of the PPP funds and submitted its forgiveness applications. During fiscal 2021, we received
11
Notices of PPP Forgiveness Payment from the Small Business Administration out of the
12
of our PPP loans granted. All of the notices received forgave
100
% of each of the
11
PPP loans totaling the amount of $
5.3
million in principal and interest and were included in non-operating gains (losses), net in our consolidated statement of operations for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021. In November 2021, we received a partial forgiveness of the remaining $
124,000
PPP loan for $
85,000
in principal and interest. The remaining unforgiven portion of approximately $
41,000
in principal has been repaid as debt plus accrued interest.

Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Matters
Texas Patron Tax
In 2015, the Company reached a settlement with the State of Texas over the payment of the state’s Patron Tax on adult club customers. To resolve the issue of taxes owed, the Company agreed to pay $
10.0
million in equal monthly installments of $
119,000
, without interest, over
84
months, beginning in June 2015, for all but
two
non-settled locations. The Company agreed to remit the Patron Tax on a monthly basis, based on the current rate of $
5
per customer. For accounting purposes, the Company discounted the $
10.0
million at an imputed interest rate of
9.6
%, establishing a net present value for the settlement of $
7.2
million. As a consequence, the Company recorded an $
8.2
million pre-tax gain for the third quarter ended June 30, 2015, representing the difference between the $
7.2
million and the amount previously accrued for the tax.
In March 2017, the Company settled with the State of Texas for
one
of the
two
remaining unsettled Patron Tax locations. To resolve the issue of taxes owed, the Company agreed to pay a total of $
687,815
with $
195,815
paid at the time the settlement agreement was executed followed by
60
equal monthly installments of $
8,200
without interest.
On April 20, 2022, the Company finally settled all of its remaining Patron Tax liability. The aggregate balance of Patron Tax settlement liability, which is included in long-term debt in the condensed consolidated balance sheets, amounted to $
0
and $
813,000
as of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively.
A declaratory judgment action was brought by five operating subsidiaries of the Company to challenge a Texas Comptroller administrative rule related to the $
5
per customer Patron Fee assessed against Sexually Oriented Businesses. An administrative rule attempted to expand the fee to cover venues featuring dancers using latex cover as well as traditional nude entertainment. The administrative rule was challenged on both constitutional and statutory grounds. On November 19, 2018, the Court issued an order that a key aspect of the administrative rule is invalid based on it exceeding the scope of the Comptroller’s authority. On March 6, 2020, the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas, Austin Division, ruled that the Texas Patron Fee is unconstitutional as it has been applied and enforced by the Comptroller. The State of Texas appealed to the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, who affirmed that the Texas Patron Fee is unconstitutional as applied. The State of Texas next sought review from the Supreme Court, but the high court declined to take the case. That lawsuit is now back before the trial court for post-trial proceedings but is final for purposes of determining the Texas Patron Fee is unconstitutional as applied to clubs featuring dancers using latex cover.
Indemnity Insurance Corporation
As previously reported, the Company and its subsidiaries were insured under a liability policy issued by Indemnity Insurance Corporation, RRG (“IIC”) through October 25, 2013. The Company and its subsidiaries changed insurance companies on that date.

On November 7, 2013, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware entered a Rehabilitation and Injunction Order (“Rehabilitation Order”), which declared IIC impaired, insolvent and in an unsafe condition and placed IIC under the supervision of the Insurance Commissioner of the State of Delaware (“Commissioner”) in her capacity as receiver (“Receiver”). The Rehabilitation Order empowered the Commissioner to rehabilitate IIC through a variety of means, including gathering assets and marshaling those assets as necessary. Further, the order stayed or abated pending lawsuits involving IIC as the insurer until May 6, 2014.
On April 10, 2014, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware entered a Liquidation and Injunction Order With Bar Date (“Liquidation Order”), which ordered the liquidation of IIC and terminated all insurance policies or contracts of insurance issued by IIC. The Liquidation Order further ordered that all claims against IIC must have been filed with the Receiver before the close of business on January 16, 2015 and that all pending lawsuits involving IIC as the insurer were further stayed or abated until October 7, 2014. As a result, the Company and its subsidiaries no longer had insurance coverage under the liability policy with IIC. The Company has retained counsel to defend against and evaluate these claims and lawsuits. We are funding
100
% of the costs of litigation and will seek reimbursement from the bankruptcy receiver. The Company filed the appropriate claims against IIC with the Receiver before the January 16, 2015 deadline and has provided updates as requested; however, there are no assurances of any recovery from these claims. It is unknown at this time what effect this uncertainty will have on the Company. As previously stated, since October 25, 2013, the Company has obtained general liability coverage from other insurers, which have covered and/or will cover any claims arising from actions after that date. As of June 30, 2022, we have
1
remaining unresolved claim out of the original
71
claims.
Shareholder Class and Derivative Actions
In May and June 2019,
three
putative securities class action complaints were filed against RCI Hospitality Holdings, Inc. and certain of its officers in the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division. The complaints alleged violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and 10b-5 promulgated thereunder based on alleged materially false and misleading statements made in the Company’s SEC filings and disclosures as they relate to various alleged transactions by the Company and management. The complaints sought unspecified damages, costs, and attorneys’ fees. These lawsuits were Hoffman v. RCI Hospitality Holdings, Inc., et al. (filed May 21, 2019, naming the Company and Eric Langan); Gu v. RCI Hospitality Holdings, Inc., et al. (filed May 28, 2019, naming the Company, Eric Langan, and Phil Marshall (who is no longer an officer of the Company)); and Grossman v. RCI Hospitality Holdings, Inc., et al. (filed June 28, 2019, naming the Company, Eric Langan, and Phil Marshall). The plaintiffs in all
three
cases moved to consolidate the purported class actions. On January 10, 2020 an order consolidating the Hoffman, Grossman, and Gu cases was entered by the Court. The consolidated case is styled In re RCI Hospitality Holdings, Inc., No. 4:19-cv-01841. On February 24, 2020, the plaintiffs in the consolidated case filed an Amended Class Action Complaint, continuing to allege violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and 10b-5 promulgated thereunder. In addition to naming the Company, Eric Langan, and Phil Marshall, the amended complaint also added former directors Nourdean Anakar and Steven Jenkins as defendants. On April 24, 2020, the Company and the individual defendants moved to dismiss the amended complaint for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. On March 31, 2021, the court denied defendants’ motion to dismiss the lawsuit. On April 14, 2021, defendants filed their answer and affirmative defenses, denying liability as to all claims. On June 14, 2021, a scheduling order was entered in the case, setting January 9, 2023 as the trial date. On December 22, 2021, an amended scheduling order was entered, extending the trial date to April 7, 2023 and extending all other case deadlines. The Company vigorously defended against this action. In January 2022, the parties engaged in settlement discussions beginning with a formal mediation on January 13, 2022, which resulted in an agreement-in-principle to resolve the matter. On January 24, 2022, a Joint Notice of Settlement was filed. On April 15, 2022, counsel for Plaintiffs filed an Unopposed Motion for (I) Preliminary Approval of Class Action Settlement; (II) Certification of the Settlement Class; and (III) Approval of the Notice of Settlement. On April 28, 2022, the Court entered an Order preliminarily approving the Class Action Settlement and Notice. The Court set the final approval hearing for June 24, 2022. Plaintiffs sought to extend the hearing until August to comply with certain potential notice and related obligations to the purported class, and Defendants concurred with the request. On July 8, 2022, plaintiffs moved for final approval of the settlement and a hearing has been set for August 12, 2022.
On January 21, 2022, Shiva Stein and Kevin McCarty filed a shareholder derivative action in the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division against former director Nourdean Anakar, Yura Barabash, former director Steven L. Jenkins, Eric Langan, Luke Lirot, former CFO Phillip K. Marshall, Elaine J. Martin, Allan Priaulx, and Travis Reese as defendants, as well as against RCI Hospitality Holdings, Inc. as nominal defendant. The action, styled

mc-00149 (S.D. Tex.), alleges claims for breach of fiduciary duty based on alleged dissemination of inaccurate information, alleged failure to maintain internal controls, and alleged failure to properly manage company property. This action is in its preliminary phase, and a potential loss cannot yet be estimated. These allegations are substantively similar to claims asserted in the class action and a prior derivative action that was dismissed in June of 2021. RCI intends to vigorously defend against the action. On April 2, 2022, the Company and its current and former officers and directors named in the shareholder derivative complaint filed their Motions to Dismiss and the derivative plaintiffs have responded. The Motions now have been fully briefed for the Court's consideration.

On March 26, 2016, an image infringement lawsuit was filed in federal court in the Southern District of New York against the Company and several of its subsidiaries. Plaintiffs allege that their images were misappropriated, intentionally altered and published without their consent by clubs affiliated with the Company. The causes of action asserted in Plaintiffs’ Complaint include alleged violations of the Federal Lanham Act, the New York Civil Rights Act, and other statutory and common law theories. The Company contends that there is insurance coverage under an applicable insurance policy. The insurer has raised several issues regarding coverage under the policy. At this time, this disagreement remains unresolved. The Company has denied all allegations, continues to vigorously defend against the lawsuit and continues to believe the matter is covered by insurance.
On June 23, 2014, Mark H. Dupray and Ashlee Dupray filed a lawsuit against Pedro Antonio Panameno and our subsidiary JAI Dining Services (Phoenix) Inc. (“JAI Phoenix”) in the Superior Court of Arizona for Maricopa County. The suit alleged that Mr. Panameno injured Mr. Dupray in a traffic accident after being served alcohol at an establishment operated by JAI Phoenix. The suit alleged that JAI Phoenix was liable under theories of common law dram shop negligence and dram shop negligence per se. After a jury trial proceeded to a verdict in favor of the plaintiffs against both defendants, in April 2017 the Court entered a judgment under which JAI Phoenix’s share of compensatory damages is approximately $
1.4
million and its share of punitive damages is $
4.0
million. In May 2017, JAI Phoenix filed a motion for judgment as a matter of law or, in the alternative, motion for new trial. The Court denied this motion in August 2017. In September 2017, JAI Phoenix filed a notice of appeal. In June 2018, the matter was heard by the Arizona Court of Appeals. On November 15, 2018 the Court of Appeals vacated the jury’s verdict and remanded the case to the trial court. It is anticipated that a new trial will occur at some point in the future. JAI Phoenix will continue to vigorously defend itself.
As set forth in the risk factors as disclosed in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, the adult entertainment industry standard is to classify adult entertainers as independent contractors, not employees. While we take steps to ensure that our adult entertainers are deemed independent contractors, from time to time, we are named in lawsuits related to the alleged misclassification of entertainers. Claims are brought under both federal and where applicable, state law. Based on the industry standard, the manner in which the independent contractor entertainers are treated at the clubs, and the entertainer license agreements governing the entertainer’s work at the clubs, the Company believes that these lawsuits are without merit. Lawsuits are handled by attorneys with an expertise in the relevant law and are defended vigorously.
General
In the regular course of business affairs and operations, we are subject to possible loss contingencies arising from third-party litigation and federal, state, and local environmental, labor, health and safety laws and regulations. We assess the probability that we could incur liability in connection with certain of these lawsuits. Our assessments are made in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, as codified in ASC 450-20, and is not an admission of any liability on the part of the Company or any of its subsidiaries. In certain cases that are in the early stages and in light of the uncertainties surrounding them, we do not currently possess sufficient information to determine a range of reasonably possible liability. In matters where there is insurance coverage, in the event we incur any liability, we believe it is unlikely we would incur losses in connection with these claims in excess of our insurance coverage.
Settlements of lawsuits for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022 amount to approximately $
132,000
and $
709,000
, respectively, and for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2021 amount to approximately $
127,000
and $
280,000
, respectively. As of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, the Company has accrued $
181,000
and $
378,000
in accrued liabilities, respectively, related to settlement of lawsuits.

General corporate expenses include corporate salaries, health insurance and social security taxes for officers, legal, accounting and information technology employees, corporate taxes and insurance, legal and accounting fees, depreciation and other corporate costs such as automobile and travel costs. Management considers these to be non-allocable costs for segment purposes.
Certain real estate assets previously wholly assigned to Bombshells have been subdivided and allocated to other future development or investment projects. Accordingly, those asset costs have been transferred out of the Bombshells segment.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in this quarterly report, and the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2021.
Overview
RCI Hospitality Holdings, Inc. (“RCIHH”) is a holding company. Through our subsidiaries, we engage in a number of activities in the hospitality and related businesses. All services and management operations are conducted by subsidiaries of RCIHH, including RCI Management Services, Inc.
Through our subsidiaries, as of June 30, 2022, we operated a total of 60 establishments that offer live adult entertainment and/or restaurant and bar operations, including one club that is temporarily closed. We also operated a leading business communications company serving the multi-billion-dollar adult nightclubs industry. We have two principal reportable segments: Nightclubs and Bombshells. We combine operating segments not included in Nightclubs and Bombshells into “Other.” In the context of club and restaurant/sports bar operations, the terms the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “us” and similar terms used in this report refer to subsidiaries of RCIHH. RCIHH was incorporated in the State of Texas in 1994. Our corporate offices are located in Houston, Texas.
Ongoing Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic and Potential Economic Slowdown
Our businesses were heavily impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic since its declaration as a national emergency in March 2020. We had a major disruption in our business operations that affected our cash flow. The pandemic resulted in a significant reduction in customer traffic in our clubs and restaurants due to changes in consumer behavior as social distancing practices, dining room closures and other restrictions were mandated or encouraged by federal, state and local governments. In 2021, our businesses started and continue to recover to date from the initial effects of the pandemic. There have been several variants to the coronavirus since then that threatened our operations throughout the period of recovery. We continue to adhere to state and local government mandates regarding the pandemic.
Since early 2021, there has been a worldwide increase in inflation. In the event this global inflation leads to a major economic downturn, our business operations and cash flow could be significantly affected.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On a regular basis, we evaluate these estimates. These estimates are based on management’s historical industry experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
For a description of the accounting policies that, in management’s opinion, involve the most significant application of judgment or involve complex estimation and which could, if different judgment or estimates were made, materially affect our reported financial position, results of operations, or cash flows, see “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations – Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021 filed with the SEC on December 14, 2021.
During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022, there were no significant changes in our accounting policies and estimates other than the newly adopted accounting standards that are disclosed in Note 2 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.

Revenues
Consolidated revenues for the third quarter increased by approximately $12.9 million, or 22.2%, versus the comparable prior-year quarter due primarily to partial recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and sales from newly acquired clubs and a new Bombshells opening. Consolidated same-store sales decreased by 0.1%. The total increase in consolidated revenues was primarily from a 23.4% increase from new units and partially offset by a 0.1% decrease from last year’s COVID-19 closures, a 0.1% decrease from the impact of same-store sales growth, and a 1.0% decrease from non-core operations.
We calculate same-store sales by comparing year-over-year revenues from nightclubs and restaurants/sports bars starting in the first full quarter of operations after at least 12 full months for Nightclubs and at least 18 full months for Bombshells. We consider the first six months of operations of a Bombshells unit to be the “honeymoon period” where sales are significantly higher than normal. We exclude from a particular month’s calculation units previously included in the same-store sales base that have closed temporarily for more than 15 days until its next full month of operations. We also exclude from the same-store sales base units that are being reconcepted or are closed due to renovations or remodels. Acquired

units are included in the same-store sales calculation as long as they qualify based on the definition stated above. Revenues outside of our Nightclubs and Bombshells reportable segments are excluded from same-store sales calculation.

Nightclubs revenues increased by 33.3% for the quarter ended June 30, 2022 compared to the prior-year quarter primarily due to the contribution of newly acquired clubs and the impact of the increase in same-store sales. For Nightclubs that were open enough days to qualify for same-store sales (refer to the definition of same-store sales in the preceding paragraph), sales increased by 4.8%. Newly acquired clubs contributed $11.8 million to the total Nightclubs revenue increase of $13.7 million. By type of revenue, service revenue increased by 50.8%, alcoholic beverage sales increased by 30.6%, and food, merchandise and other revenue increased by 2.5%.
Bombshells revenues decreased by 1.8%, of which 12.3% was for same-store sales decrease with the offsetting increase caused by one new location. By type of revenue, food and merchandise sales were flat while alcoholic beverage sales decreased by 3.2%.
Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses, as a percent of revenues, increased to 71.0% from 68.0% from last year’s third quarter, with a $10.9 million increase, or 27.6%, which was mainly caused by costs and expenses directly related to significantly higher sales in the current-year quarter and additional fixed expenses partly from new units plus the impairment charge in the current quarter. Significant contributors to the changes in operating expenses are explained below.
Cost of goods sold increased by $310,000, or 3.5%, mainly due to higher sales but offset by the mix of higher-margin service revenue increasing from 29.2% to 36.0%. As a percent of total revenues, cost of goods sold decreased to 13.0% from 15.3% mainly due to the sales mix shift mentioned above.
Salaries and wages increased by $3.5 million, or 25.4%, due to increase in personnel and shifts to accommodate the increase in sales. As a percent of total revenues, salaries and wages were 24.6% from 24.0% mainly due to additional employees from new units partially offset by fixed salaries paid on higher sales.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $4.9 million, or 33.2%, primarily due to increased variable expenses related to sales activity during the current-year quarter and other increases from insurance, accounting and professional fees, and advertising.
Depreciation and amortization increased by $508,000, or 24.7% due to new depreciable assets from newly acquired and constructed units.
Other charges, net was a net charge of $1.5 million in the current quarter while a net gain of $143,000 in the comparable prior-year quarter. The swing was mainly from impairment charges of $1.7 million in the current third quarter.
Income (Loss) from Operations
For the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, our consolidated operating margin was 29.0% and 32.0%, respectively. The main drivers for the decrease in operating margin are the presence of less variable costs and expenses such as impairment charge, insurance, and accounting and professional fees, partially offset by the increase in mix of higher-margin service revenue.

Other Income/Expenses
Interest expense increased by $747,000, or 32.7%, primarily caused by a higher average debt balance and partially offset by a lower average interest rate.
Our total occupancy costs, defined as the sum of operating lease expense and interest expense, were $4.8 million and $3.3 million for the quarters ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. As a percentage of revenue, total occupancy costs
32
Table of Contents
were 6.7% and 5.7% during the quarters ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, primarily due to the interest from higher average debt balance and the increased mix of our clubs where we lease our locations from third parties.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense was $3.8 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2022 compared to $4.0 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2021. The effective income tax rate was 21.3% and 24.4% for the quarters ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Revenues
Consolidated revenues for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 increased by approximately $55.9 million, or 39.9%, versus to the comparable prior-year period due primarily to partial recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and sales from newly acquired clubs and a new Bombshells opening. Consolidated same-store sales increased by 8.4%. The 39.9% increase in consolidated revenues was primarily from a 22.3% increase from new units, a 9.9% increase from last year’s COVID-19 closures, a 7.9% increase from the impact of same-store sales growth, with a partially offsetting 0.2% decrease from non-core operations.
Refer to the definition of same-store sales in the Revenues section of the third quarter discussion above.

Newly acquired clubs contributed $27.0 million to the total Nightclubs revenue increase of $52.6 million. By type of revenue, service revenue increased by 76.6%, alcoholic beverage sales increased by 50.8%, and food, merchandise and other revenue increased by 18.9%.
Bombshells revenues increased by 8.7%, of which 1.6% was from an offsetting same-store sales decrease with the remaining 10.3% increase caused by one new location. By type of revenue, food, merchandise and other revenue increased by 13.4% while alcoholic beverages sales increased by 5.2%.
Operating Expenses
Total operating expenses, as a percent of revenues, decreased to 72.7% from 75.1% from last year’s nine-month period, although there was an $37.4 million increase, or 35.4%, which was mainly caused by costs and expenses directly related to significantly higher sales in the current nine-month period. Significant contributors to the changes in operating expenses are explained below.
Cost of goods sold increased by $5.0 million, or 22.6%, mainly due to higher sales. As a percent of total revenues, cost of goods sold decreased to 13.7% from 15.6% mainly due to the increase in sales mix of higher-margin service revenues.
Salaries and wages increased by $13.9 million, or 37.9%, due to increase in personnel and shifts to accommodate the increase in sales. As a percent of total revenues, salaries and wages were 25.7% from 26.1% mainly due to fixed salaries paid on higher sales partially offset by additional employees from new units.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $17.0 million, or 43.1%, primarily due to increased variable expenses related to sales activity during the current period.
Depreciation and amortization increased by $1.4 million, or 23.2% due to new depreciable assets from newly acquired and constructed units partially offset by fully depreciated and sold assets.
Income (Loss) from Operations
For the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, our consolidated operating margin was 27.3% and 24.9%, respectively. The main drivers for the increase in operating margin are the increase in mix of higher-margin service revenue and the leveraging of fixed expenses on higher sales.

Nightclubs operating margin was 40.3% and 38.5% for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, while operating margin for Bombshells was 20.3% and 24.3%, respectively. The increase in Nightclubs operating margin was mainly due to the increase in higher-margin service revenues and the leveraging of fixed operating costs and expenses in relation to higher sales. The decrease in Bombshells operating margin was mainly from preopening expenses related to the new Bombshells unit and the impairment in the current year.
Excluding certain items, non-GAAP operating income (loss) and non-GAAP operating margin are computed in the tables below (dollars in thousands). Refer to the discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures on page 36.

Other Income/Expenses
Interest expense increased by $1.4 million, or 20.0%, which was mainly caused by a higher average debt balance and partially offset by a lower average interest rate.
Our total occupancy costs, defined as the sum of operating lease expense and interest expense, were $13.4 million and $10.0 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. As a percentage of revenue, total occupancy costs were 6.9% and 7.1% during the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, primarily due to the increase in sales base partially offset by higher interest expense from higher average debt balance and more leased properties from new acquisitions.
Non-operating gains decreased by $5.1 million, which was primarily the gain on debt extinguishment from the PPP loans during last year's first quarter.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense was $10.1 million during the nine months ended June 30, 2022 compared to $5.5 million during the comparable prior-year period. The effective income tax rate was 22.1% and 16.6% for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Our effective tax rate is affected by state taxes, permanent differences, and tax credits,

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) gains or losses on sale of businesses and assets, (c) gains or losses on insurance, (d) settlement of lawsuits, and (e) impairment of assets. 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 gains or losses on equity securities, (f) settlement of lawsuits, (g) gain on debt extinguishment, and (h) 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 21.6% and 24.3% effective tax rate of the pre-tax non-GAAP income before taxes for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, 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 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, and (i) gain on debt extinguishment. 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. See “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section for further discussion.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
At June 30, 2022, our cash and cash equivalents were approximately $37.5 million compared to $35.7 million at September 30, 2021. Because of the large volume of cash we handle, we have very stringent cash controls. As of June 30, 2022, we had working capital of $20.5 million compared to working capital of $26.1 million as of September 30, 2021, excluding net assets held for sale (net of associated liabilities of $4.2 million and $1.1 million, respectively) amounting to $2.7 million and $3.8 million as of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively. Although we believe that our ability to generate cash from operating activities is one of our fundamental financial strengths, the temporary closure of our clubs and restaurants caused by the COVID-19 pandemic presented operational challenges. Our strategy was to open locations and operate in accordance with local and state guidelines. Revenues seem favorable now that all our locations are not under
39
Table of Contents
pandemic-related closure mandates. We believe that we can borrow capital if needed but currently we do not have unused credit facilities so there can be no guarantee that additional liquidity will be readily available or available on favorable terms.
We continue to adhere to state and local government mandates regarding the pandemic and, since March 2020, have closed and reopened a number of our locations depending on changing government mandates, including operating hour and limited occupancy restrictions, where applicable. Currently, all of our locations are open except one club that is being renovated and/or remodeled.
We have not recently raised capital through the issuance of equity securities although we have recently issued shares of our common stock to partly pay for an acquisition (see next paragraph). Instead, we use debt financing to lower our overall cost of capital and increase our return on stockholders’ equity. We have a history of borrowing funds in private transactions and from sellers in acquisition transactions and have secured traditional bank financing on our new development projects and refinancing of our existing notes payable, but with the significant global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, there can be no assurance that any of these financing options would be presently available on favorable terms, if at all. We also have historically utilized these cash flows to invest in property and equipment, adult nightclubs, and restaurants/sports bars.
On October 18, 2021, we and certain of our subsidiaries completed our acquisition of eleven gentlemen’s clubs, six related real estate properties, and associated intellectual property for a total agreed acquisition price of $88.0 million (with a total consideration preliminary fair value of $88.4 million based on the Company’s stock price at acquisition date and discounted due to the lock-up period). The acquisition gives the Company presence in four additional states. We paid for the acquisition with $36.8 million in cash, $21.2 million in four seller-financed notes, and 500,000 shares of our common stock with a fair value of $30.4 million at issuance.
On January 25, 2022, the Company borrowed $18.7 million from a bank lender for working capital purposes by executing a 10-year promissory note with an initial interest rate of 5.25% per annum to be adjusted after five years to a rate equal to the weekly average yield on U.S. Treasury securities plus 3.98% with a floor of 5.25%. The note is payable in monthly payments of $126,265 in principal and interest to be adjusted after five years. The promissory note is secured by eleven real estate properties. After the 10-year term, the remaining balance of principal and interest are payable at maturity date. There are certain financial covenants with which the Company is to be in compliance related to this loan, among which to maintain a debt service coverage of not less than 1.4 times, reviewed annually
.
On May 2, 2022, the Company completed an acquisition of a club in Miami, Florida for a total acquisition price of $16.0 million. The acquisition price includes $3.0 million for the real estate property covered in a stock purchase agreement payable in cash at closing, and $13.0 million for the adult entertainment business covered in a separate stock purchase agreement payable as follows: (1) $2.0 million in cash at closing; (2) $6.0 million under a 10% three-year promissory note payable in 35 equal monthly payments of $79,290 in principal and interest based on a ten-year amortization schedule, with a balloon payment for the remaining principal and accrued interest due at maturity; and (3) $5.0 million under a 10% ten-year interest-only promissory note payable in 119 equal monthly payments of $41,667 in interest, with a balloon payment of the total $5.0 million in principal plus accrued interest due at maturity. The $5.0 million promissory note may be earlier canceled if there are any regulatory changes that would prohibit the business from operating as an adult entertainment establishment within ten years of the closing date of the stock purchase agreement.
We expect to generate adequate cash flows from operations for the next 12 months from the issuance of this report.

The capital expenditures during the nine months ended June 30, 2021 were composed of primarily of real estate and construction of one new Bombshells location, a newly renovated club that was damaged by hurricane, and a liquor license purchase. Maintenance capital expenditures refer mainly to capitalized replacement of productive assets in already existing locations. Variances in capital expenditures are primarily due to the number and timing of new, remodeled, or reconcepted locations under construction.

We purchased 213,712 shares of our common stock at an average price of $56.42 during the nine months ended June 30, 2022, while we purchased 74,659 shares of our common stock at an average price of $24.03 during the nine months ended June 30, 2021. On May 24, 2022, the Board of Directors approved a $25.0 million increase in the Company's share repurchase program. As of June 30, 2022, we have approximately $21.9 million remaining to purchase additional shares.
Subsequent to the reporting date until August 5, 2022, the Company purchased 42,250 shares of its own common stock at a cost of $2.3 million.
We paid quarterly dividends of $0.04 per share in both the current- and prior-year periods, except for the second and third quarters of fiscal 2022 where we paid $0.05 per share.
See Note 7 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for future maturities of our debt obligations.
Management also uses certain non-GAAP cash flow measures such as free cash flow. We calculate free cash flow as 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.

Our free cash flow for the current nine-month period increased by 60.7% compared to the comparable prior-year period primarily due to higher sales, net of related expense payments and lower maintenance capital expenditures, partially offset by higher interest expense payments and higher income tax payments in the current year.
We do not include capital expenditures related to new facilities construction, equipment and intangibles assets as a reduction from net cash flow from operating activities to arrive at free cash flow. This is because, based on our capital allocation strategy, acquisitions and development of our own clubs and restaurants are our primary uses of free cash flow.
Other than the potentially prolonged effect of the COVID-19 pandemic, the potential economic slowdown, and the notes payable financing described above, we are not aware of any event or trend that would potentially significantly affect liquidity. In our opinion, working capital is not a true indicator of our financial status. Typically, businesses in our industry carry current liabilities in excess of current assets because businesses in our industry receive substantially immediate payment for sales, with nominal receivables, while inventories and other current liabilities normally carry longer payment terms. Vendors and purveyors often remain flexible with payment terms, providing businesses in our industry with opportunities to adjust to short-term business down turns. We consider the primary indicators of financial status to be the long-term trend of revenue growth, the mix of sales revenues, overall cash flow, profitability from operations and the level of long-term debt.

See definition and calculation of Adjusted EBITDA and Free Cash Flow above in the Non-GAAP Financial Measures subsection of Results of Operations.
Impact of Inflation
To the extent permitted by competition, we have managed to recover increased costs through price increases and may continue to do so. However, there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so in the future.
Seasonality
Our nightclub operations are affected by seasonal factors. Historically, we have experienced reduced revenues from April through September (our fiscal third and fourth quarters) with the strongest operating results occurring during October through March (our fiscal first and second quarters). Our revenues in certain markets are also affected by sporting events that cause unusual changes in sales from year to year.
Capital Allocation Strategy
Our capital allocation strategy provides us with disciplined guidelines on how we should use our free cash flows; provided however, that we may deviate from this strategy if other strategic rationale warrants. We calculate free cash flow as net cash flows from operating activities minus maintenance capital expenditures. Using the after-tax yield of buying our own stock as baseline, management believes that we are able to make better investment decisions.
Based on our current capital allocation strategy:
•
We consider acquiring or developing our own clubs or restaurants that we believe have the potential to provide a minimum cash on cash return of 25%-33%, absent an otherwise strategic rationale;
•
We consider disposing of underperforming units to free up capital for more productive use;
•
We consider buying back our own stock if the after-tax yield on free cash flow is above 10%;
•
We consider paying down our most expensive debt if it makes sense on a tax adjusted basis, or there is an otherwise strategic rationale.
Growth Strategy
We believe that our nightclub operations can continue to grow organically and through careful entry into markets and demographic segments with high growth potential. Our growth strategy involves the following: (i) to acquire existing units in locations that are consistent with our growth and income targets and which appear receptive to the upscale club formula we have developed; (ii) to open new units after market analysis; (iii) to franchise our Bombshells brand; (iv) to form joint ventures or partnerships to reduce start-up and operating costs, with us contributing equity in the form of our brand name

and management expertise; (v) to develop new club concepts that are consistent with our management and marketing skills; (vi) to develop and open our restaurant concepts as our capital and manpower allow; and (vii) to control the real estate in connection with club operations, although some units may be in leased premises.
We believe that Bombshells can grow organically and through careful entry into markets and demographic segments with high growth potential. All eleven of the existing company-owned Bombshells as of June 30, 2022 are located in Texas. Our first franchisee for Bombshells restaurants in the San Antonio, Texas area opened in June 2022. Our growth strategy is to diversify our operations with these units which do not require SOB licenses, which are sometimes difficult to obtain. While we are searching for adult nightclubs to acquire, we are able to also search for restaurant/sports bar locations that are consistent with our income targets.
We are currently in the process of site selection for new Bombshells locations and made purchases of real estate in Stafford and Rowlett, both in Texas, for future Bombshells sites.
We continue to evaluate opportunities to acquire new nightclubs and anticipate acquiring new locations that fit our business model as we have done in the past. The acquisition of additional clubs may require us to take on additional debt or issue our common stock, or both. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional financing on reasonable terms in the future, if at all, should the need arise. An inability to obtain such additional financing could have an adverse effect on our growth strategy.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
As of June 30, 2022, there were no material changes to the information provided in Item 7A of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year ended September 30, 2021.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures, defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act, that are designed to ensure that the information required to be filed or submitted with the SEC under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management of the company with the participation of its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
In connection with the preparation of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2022, an evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of management, including the chief executive officer and chief financial officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures. Based on their evaluation, they have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2022. This determination is based on the previously reported material weakness management previously identified in our internal control over financial reporting, as described below. We are in the process of remediating the material weakness in our internal control, as described below. We believe the completion of these processes should remedy our disclosure controls and procedures. We will continue to monitor these issues.
Previously Reported Material Weakness in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In our Annual Report for the year ended September 30, 2021, filed with the SEC on December 14, 2021, management concluded that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of September 30, 2021. In the evaluation, management identified a material weakness in internal control related to the proper design and implementation of controls over our estimates relating to the impairment of goodwill, indefinite-lived intangibles and long-lived assets, specifically over the precision of management’s review of certain assumptions.
Remediation Efforts to Address Material Weakness
Management is committed to the remediation of the material weakness described above, as well as the continued improvement of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. As such, we have added controls to increase the precision of the review of all assumptions used in the impairment valuation model. We will also conduct senior management reviews of any and all material estimates that are applied in these instances.
It is our belief that these actions will effectively remediate the existing material weakness.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
On October 18, 2021, we completed our acquisition of eleven gentlemen’s clubs, six related real estate properties, and associated intellectual property (see Note 4 to our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements). Management has considered this transaction material to the results of operations, cash flows, and financial position from the date of acquisition through June 30, 2022, and believes that the internal controls and procedures of the acquisition have a material effect on internal controls over financial reporting. We are currently in the process of incorporating the internal controls of the acquired group into the internal controls over financial reporting for our assessment of and report on internal controls over financi
al
reporting for September 30, 2023.
Other than as described above, there were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
PART II—OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
See the “Legal Matters” section within Note 10 of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which information is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
There were no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021, except for such risks and uncertainties that may result from the additional disclosure in the “Legal Matters” section within Note 10 of the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which information is incorporated herein by reference, as well as any additional risks relating to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, as discussed below. The risks described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K and in this Form 10-Q are not the only risks the Company faces. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to the Company, or that the Company deems to be immaterial, also may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations.
Our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely affected by disruptions in the global economy caused by the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
The ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine could have adverse effects on global macroeconomic conditions which could negatively impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations. The conflict is highly unpredictable and has already resulted in significant volatility in oil and natural gas prices worldwide. We currently have some software developers in Ukraine and the uncertainty of their living conditions has delayed some of the deliverables in our soon-to-launch internet venture. In addition, the conflict could lead to increased cyberattacks or could aggravate other risk factors that we have previously identified.
