Rick's Cabaret Reports Fiscal 2005 Results



HOUSTON -
(January 5, 2006)- Rick's Cabaret International, Inc. [NASDAQ:RICK],
the leading publicly traded operator of gentlemen's clubs, today reported results for its fiscal year ended September 30, 2005. Because of extraordinary one-time expenses in the fourth quarter associated with the opening of its new cabaret in New York City, the company reported a loss for the year, although same-location-same-period income was up.

"Heavy expenses in the fourth quarter required to complete our midtown Manhattan club were fully anticipated and are now behind us," said Eric Langan, President and CEO. "Our New York City club is now operating and beginning to contribute revenue and income."

The net loss for the year ended September 30th was $215,148, compared with net income of $775,253 in 2004. The full year 2005 results include $982,500 in losses attributed to opening and operating new clubs in New York City and Charlotte, NC. Net income for nightclub operations for the same-location-same-period increased by 3.78%. Net income for Internet operations for the same-web-site-same-period increased by 28.71%.

Total revenues for the year were $14,824,407, compared with $13,858,434 in 2004 (the 2004 figure has been restated to account for discontinued operations). Revenues increased by $965,973 or 6.97%, primarily due to new nightclub operations. Revenues from nightclub operations for same-location-same-period decreased by 0.74% and for Internet businesses by 0.98%.

Among the items contributing to the company's expenses in 2005 compared to 2004 were increases primarily associated with opening new clubs, including: payroll and related costs of $5,200,976 compared to $4,803,515 (payroll for nightclub operations for same-location-same-period decreased by 4.86%); general and administrative expenses of $7,458,721 compared to $6,036,401 due to increased taxes and permits, rent, legal and professional, utilities, advertising and marketing expenses; and interest expense of $699,678 compared to $324,411. The company had long-term debt of $13,246,836 as of September 30, 2005 compared to debt of $3,693,560 at the end of the previous year.

Rick's used $6,307,508 of cash in investing in 2005 compared to $867,206 for the previous, and $4,801,197 was provided by financing activities in 2005 compared to $153,749 used for the previous year.

"Our experience in New York City demonstrates that the strategy of acquiring new clubs in excellent business and tourism locations continues to be a sound foundation for building the overall business of Rick's Cabaret in the future," Mr. Langan said. "However, we do not anticipate that future acquisitions will entail the exceptionally high costs associated with New York, where unique circumstances required a complete remodel and other high start-up expenses. We anticipate that future acquisitions will be much more of a turnkey situation with faster accretion of revenue and profit.”

 The company did not change previously announced guidance for fiscal 2006 of revenues in the $23 -$24 million range and net income of about $2 million.
