Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations
Results of Operations
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company's
unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included
in this quarterly report and in the audited consolidated Financial Statements
and Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations ("MD&A") contained in the Company's 10 KSB for the year ended
September 30, 1998. Certain statements in the following MD&A are forward
looking statements. Words such as "expects", "anticipates", "estimates", and
similar expressions are intended to identify forward looking statements. Such
statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those projected. Such risks and uncertainties
are set forth below and under "Special Note Regarding Forward Looking
Information".
GENERAL
The Company was formed in December 1994 to acquire all of the outstanding
capital stock of Trumps, Inc., a Texas corporation ("Trumps") formed in 1982.
Since 1983, Trumps has operated Rick's Cabaret, a premier adult nightclub
offering topless entertainment in Houston, Texas. Rick s Cabaret International,
Inc. ("Rick s" or the "Company") currently owns and operates premiere adult
nightclubs offering adult entertainment and restaurant and bar operations. The
Company has two adult nightclubs in operation in Houston, Texas as well as a
non-sexually oriented discotheque, Tantra. Additionally, the Company has adult
nightclubs in operation in New Orleans, Louisiana and Minneapolis, Minnesota.
The Company owns the original location of Rick's Cabaret on Bering Drive in
Houston, Texas, the location of Tantra discotheque, in Houston, Texas the
location in Minneapolis, Minnesota and the location in north Houston, Texas
located near George Bush Intercontinental Airport, which opened in December,
1998. The Company leases its New Orleans facility.
Revenues are derived from the sale of liquor, beer, wine and food, as well as
from dancer performances, cover charges and other income.
Results of Operations
Three months ended December 31, 1998 as compared to the three months ended
December 31, 1997.
For the quarter ended December 31, 1998, the Company had consolidated total
revenues of $3,317,969 an increase of $ 1,649,543 from the fiscal quarter ended
December 31, 1997 of $1,668,426.
The increase in revenues compared to the first quarter ended December 31, 1997
is due to increased sales at a number of the company s locations. The company s
newest location near George Bush Intercontinental Airport opened in
mid-December, 1998.
<PAGE>
Cost of goods sold were 31.7% and 22.2% of sales of alcoholic beverages and food
for the first quarters of fiscal 1999 and 1998, respectively. The increase in
fiscal 1999 is due primarily to start-up complimentary expenses at the new
location in North Houston as well as higher than usual complimentary expenses
during the holiday season.
Payroll and related costs were $1,004,943 for the first quarter in 1999
compared to $448,644 for the same fiscal period in 1998. The increase is a
reflection of the additional personnel experienced by the company as it adds
more locations. Management currently believes that its labor and management
staff levels are of appropriate levels.
Other selling, general and administrative expenses increased 44% from the
first quarter of fiscal 1998 to the first quarter of fiscal 1999. The increase
was due primarily to additional administrative costs incurred due to the
expanded operations of the company.
Interest expense in the first quarter of fiscal 1999 was $143,244.
Net income for the first quarter of fiscal 1999 was $283,074 compared to income
of $35,553 for the first quarter of fiscal 1998.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
At December 31, 1998 the Company has negative working capital of $(1,134,043)
compared to negative working capital $(887,833) at September 30, 1998. The
decrease in working capital is due primarily to the expenditure of cash
resources in building and opening the company's newest location in North
Houston, which opened in mid-December, 1998.
Net cash provided by operating activities in the first quarter of fiscal 1999
was $598,567 compared to $632,506 for the same period in fiscal 1998.
The decrease in cash provided by operating activities was due primarily to
the sale of land in the FY 1998 quarter which provided cash of $815,162.
Net cash used in investing activities was $(343,436) which resulted from
additions to property and equipment.
The Company's new location in North Houston opened in December, 1998. The
Minneapolis, Minnesota location opened in March, 1998 and the increase in
revenues arose primarily from the sales for these new locations as well as
increased sales at the company s location in New Orleans. In August, 1998, the
Company acquired Taurus Entertainment Companies, Inc. The Company continues
to study potential acquisition candidates which would contribute to overall
revenue growth and profitability.
The slight increase in cost of goods sold is believed to be a seasonal
variation. Management is continuing to develop programs to control cost of goods
sold. The Company continues to aggressively decrease costs throughout all
of its locations by improving menu offerings, reducing food inventory stocks
and spoilage, and by modifying buying procedures.
Depreciation and Amortization was $157,068 for the quarter ended 12/31/98
compared to $66,650 for the comparable quarter in the prior fiscal year.
<PAGE>
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
In the opinion of management, working capital is not a true indicator of the
financial status.
Typically, the Company carries current liabilities in excess of current assets
because the business receives 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 the Company with opportunities to adjust
to short term business down turns. The Company considers the primary indicators
of financial status to be the long term trend and mix of sales revenues, overall
cash flow and profitability from operations and the level of long term debt.
During the three months ended December 31, 1998, the Company provided
$598,567 cash from operations. Amortization and depreciation expense recorded
during the period ended December 31, 1998 was $157,068. Management believes
that the cash provided by operation is a positive trend indicating the
impact which an additional locations can have on overall overhead coverage
and operating results
The Company continually reviews potential acquisition candidates for
suitability.
SEASONALITY
The Company is significantly affected by seasonal factors. Typically, the
Company has experienced reduced revenues from April through September with
the strongest operating results occurring during October through March.
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING INFORMATION
<PAGE>
The Company is including the following cautionary statement in this
Quarterly Report on Form 10 QSB to make applicable and take advantage of the
safe harbor provision of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995
for any forward looking statements made by, or on behalf of the
Company. Forward looking statements include statements concerning plans,
objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance and underlying
assumptions and other statements which are other than statements of historical
facts. Certain statements contained herein are forward looking statements
and, accordingly, involve risks and uncertainties which could cause actual
results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in the
forward looking statements. The Company's expectations, beliefs and
projections are expressed in good faith and are believed by the Company to
have a reasonable basis, including without limitations, management's
examination of historical operating trends, data contained in the Company's
records and other data available from third parties, but there can be no
assurance that management's expectations, beliefs or projections will
result, or be achieved, or be accomplished.
In addition to other factors and matters discussed elsewhere herein, the
following are important factors that, in the view of the Company, could cause
material adverse affects on the Company's financial condition and results of
operations. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ
materially from those indicated include risks and uncertainties relating to the
impact and implementation of the sexually oriented business ordinance in the
City of Houston, the recent opening of the club in Minneapolis, Minnesota and
the availability of acceptable financing to fund corporate expansion efforts.
