Summary (Comparisons are to year-ago periods unless indicated otherwise)
Travis Reese, Interim President and CEO, said: "The year‑over‑year decline in net income primarily reflects pre-tax operating and non-operating items of $10.1 million in net charges in 1Q26 and $3.2 million in net gains in 1Q25."
"As previously reported, total nightclub sales were stable, with contributions from new venues offsetting same‑store performance and the closure of underperforming locations, while new Bombshells sports bars-restaurants offset most same‑store declines. Despite sales headwinds tied to customer uncertainty during the U.S. government shutdown in October and November, higher‑margin club service revenues increased 6.7% year over year.”
"In line with our 5-Year Capital Allocation Plan, we have bought back more than one million shares in FY26 to date as of May 1, 2026, resulting in approximately 7,651,500 shares outstanding."

1Q26 Results (Comparisons are to year-ago periods unless indicated otherwise)
Nightclubs segment: Revenues of $62.3 million increased by 0.9%. Sales primarily reflected $4.9 million from five newly acquired and reopened clubs and $56.9 million from the 52 same-store clubs. Two small Texas clubs closed during the quarter.2 By revenue type, service increased 6.7%; food, merchandise and other increased 1.8%; and alcoholic beverages declined 4.6%.
Other charges, net of $0.2 million (mainly impairments offset by favorable settlement of a lawsuit and gain on insurance) compared to other gains, net of $0.8 million (mainly a gain on insurance).
Operating income was $18.7 million (30.0% of segment revenues) compared to $20.9 million (33.8%). Non-GAAP operating income, which excludes other net charges and gains, was $19.5 million (31.3% of segment revenues) compared to $20.6 million (33.4%).
Bombshells segment: Revenues of $8.4 million declined 12.6%. Sales reflected $1.8 million from two newly opened locations, $6.6 million from the nine same-store locations, and the absence of $1.2 million from four underperforming locations divested/closed in 1Q25.2
Operating loss was $139,000 (-1.7% of segment revenues) compared to income of $1.9 million (20.3%), which included a gain on sale of a location of $1.3 million. Non-GAAP operating loss, which excludes other net charges (mainly impairments), was $110,000 (-1.3% of segment revenues) compared to income of $616,000 (6.4%), which excludes the gain on sale.
Corporate segment: Expenses totaled $7.4 million (10.4% of total revenues) compared to $8.8 million (12.3%). Most of the year over year change reflected lower insurance costs partially offset by higher accounting and professional fees in the current year due to delayed filing of our annual report and year end audit. Non-GAAP expenses totaled $7.0 million (9.9% of total revenues) compared to $8.4 million (11.8%).
Impairments and other charges, net within consolidated operations totaled $0.2 million compared to net gains of $2.2 million. 1Q26 also included a non-operating charge of $9.9 million compared to a non-operating gain of $1.0 million.
Income tax expense was $1.5 million compared to $1.8 million.
Weighted average shares outstanding of 8.30 million declined 7.0% due to share buybacks.
Debt of $256.4 million at December 31, 2025 increased 8.8% from $235.8 million at September 30, 2025, primarily reflecting seller-financing from the previously-announced ADW transaction. Compared to a year ago, debt increased 8.9%.

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, net of recoveries, (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, net of recoveries, (d) gains or losses on sale of businesses and assets, (e) gains or losses on insurance, (f) stock-based compensation, (g) premium on stock repurchase, (h) gains or losses on lease termination, and (i) 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 approximately 22.8% and 17.7% effective tax rate of the pre-tax non-GAAP income before taxes for the three months ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, 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) income tax expense, (c) net interest expense, (d) impairment of assets, (e) settlement of lawsuits, net of recoveries, (f) gains or losses on sale of businesses and assets, (g)
gains or losses on insurance, (h) stock-based compensation, (i) premium on stock repurchase, and (j) gains or losses on lease termination. 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.
