RCI Hospitality Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:RICK) reported club and sports bar-restaurant sales for the fiscal 2026 second quarter ended March 31, 2026. Sales do not include non-core operations and are subject to final closing. All comparisons are year over year.

Travis Reese, Interim President and CEO of RCI, said: "Nightclubs total sales increased. Same-store sales were nearly level. Contributions from recent acquisitions and opened locations more than offset previously announced plans to divest of underperforming clubs, even though freezing weather in late January-early February caused a number of clubs to close one or two days mostly on weekends. Bombshells total sales increased, but same-store sales declined."

"As discussed on our last conference call, we have gone back to Bombshells' roots at a test location, focusing on being a great sports bar with great food, where guests can ‘pre-game and party all in one.' The goal is to drive higher‑margin alcohol sales. The first successful implementation was at Bombshells 59 in Houston, which increased sales 3.6% in 2Q26, making it the best‑performing same-store location. Based on this, we have begun rolling out the concept to other Bombshells."
