Exhibit 1
The Company expects to report net income of approximately $69,000 for the
quarter ended December 26, 1999 compared to a net loss of $336,074 for the
quarter ended December 27, 1998. This gain is primarily attributable to a
decrease in costs and expenses resulting from the closure of Registrant's
Washington, D.C., location and an increase in revenue at the remaining
Grand Havana Rooms.
