HOUSTON -- (Business Wire)

RCI Hospitality Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: RICK) reported club and sports bar sales for the fiscal 2026 third quarter ended June 30, 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: “Total club and sports bar sales increased 4.0%, primarily due to an outstanding performance from Bombshells, which benefited from two new Texas locations in Rowlett and Lubbock and increases at seven of our nine same-store locations.”

“Nightclubs also contributed to the total sales increase, primarily reflecting benefits from high-interest professional basketball and soccer games. We believe this strong sports lineup helped offset softness earlier in 3Q26 from the effect of geopolitical uncertainties on discretionary spending.”
