Equipment and furniture and fixtures have estimated useful lives between five and seven years. Buildings have estimated lives of 39 years. Expenditures for major renewals and betterments that extend the useful lives are capitalized. Expenditures for normal maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. The cost of assets sold or abandoned and the related accumulated depreciation are eliminated from the accounts and any gains or losses are recognized in the accompanying combined statement of operations of the respective period.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Companies calculate the fair value of its assets and liabilities which qualify as financial instruments and includes this additional information in the notes to combined financial statements when the fair value is different than the carrying value of these financial instruments. The estimated fair value of accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate their carrying amounts due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments. The carrying value of short and long-term debt also approximates fair value since these instruments bear market rates of interest. None of these instruments are held for trading purposes.

Litigation

The Companies can be subjected to certain routine legal matters in the ordinary course of business. The Companies do not believe that the ultimate resolution of the matters will have a material impact on the Companies' financial position or results of operations.

Texas Patron Tax

Beginning January 1, 2008, the Companies’ Texas clubs became subject to a new state law requiring each club to collect and pay a $5 surcharge for every club visitor.  A lawsuit was filed by the Texas Entertainment Association (“TEA”), an organization to which the Companies are a member, alleging the fee amounts to be an unconstitutional tax.  On March 28, 2008, a State District Court Judge in Travis County, Texas ruled that the new state law violates the First Amendment to the United States Constitution and is therefore invalid.  The judge’s order enjoined the State from collecting or assessing the tax.  The State appealed the Court’s ruling.  In Texas, when cities or the State give notice of appeal, it supersedes and suspends the judgment, including the injunction.  Therefore, the judgment of the District Court cannot be enforced until the appeals are completed.  Given the suspension of the judgment, the State gave notice of its right to collect the tax pending the outcome of its appeal but took no affirmative action to enforce that right.  On June 5, 2009, the Court of Appeals for the Third District (Austin) affirmed the District Court’s judgment that the Sexually Oriented Business (“S.O.B.”) Fee violated the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution but on August 26, 2011, the Texas Supreme Court reversed the judgment of the Court of Appeals, ruling that the SOB Fee does not violate the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, and remanded the case to the District Court to determine whether the fee violates the Texas Constitution.

The TEA appealed the Texas Supreme Court's decision to the U.S. Supreme Court (regarding the constitutionality of the fee under the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution), but the U.S. Supreme Court denied the appeal on January 23, 2012.  On June 28, 2012, the District Court in Travis County held a hearing on TEA Texas Constitutional claims.  On July 9, 2012, the District Court entered an order finding that the tax was a constitutional occupations tax.  The Court denied the remainder of TEA’s constitutional claims.  TEA will appeal this decision of the District Court to the Third Court of Appeals.   The Companies have not made any payments of these taxes and plan not to make any such payments while the case is pending in the courts. However, the Companies will continue to accrue and expense the potential tax liability on the combined financial statements, so any ultimate negative ruling will not have any effect on the combined statement of operations and will only affect the Companies’ combined balance sheet. If the decision is ultimately found in the Companies’ favor, as the Companies believe it will be, then the Companies will have a one-time gain of the entire amount previously expensed.

As of December 31, 2011, the Companies have approximately $3.5 million in accrued liabilities for this tax.  Patron tax expense amounted to $1.1 million in 2011.

Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 740 prescribes a comprehensive model for the financial statement recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken in income tax returns.  In accordance with FASB ASC 740, the Companies must determine whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination based on the technical merits of the position.  The Companies believe they have no such uncertain positions.

The Companies file income tax returns in the United States federal jurisdiction.  At December 31, 2011, tax returns related to fiscal years ended December 31, 2008 through December 31, 2010, remain open to possible examination by the tax authorities.  No tax returns are currently under examination by any tax authorities.  The Companies did not incur any penalties or interest related to its federal tax returns during the year ended December 31, 2011.

On October 17, 2011, the Companies acquired the assets of a nightclub in Beaumont, Texas for $650,000, payable $150,000 in cash and $500,000 payable with a non interest-bearing note. The debt discount on the note was $195,072 at inception. The purchase price was allocated $272,957 to building and $181,971 to land. There was no goodwill recorded in the transaction. The results of operations of this entity are included in the Companies’ combined results of operations since October 17, 2011. This acquisition was made to further the Companies’ growth objective of acquiring nightclubs that will quickly contribute to the Companies’ cash flow.  Proforma results of operations have not been provided, as the amounts were not deemed material to the consolidated financial statements.

The Companies’ management group pays various costs on behalf of the Companies and the Companies reimburse the management group for such costs.  At December 31, 2011, the Companies owed payables of approximately $102,000, which were due to the management group. The Companies also owe amounts to various related parties totaling approximately $20,000 as of December 31, 2011.

Effective September 17, 2012, the Companies sold their nine operating nightclubs and two other licensed locations to a subsidiary of Rick’s Cabaret International, Inc. (“Rick’s”), which operates live adult entertainment nightclubs. Rick’s Cabaret International, Inc. is a publicly traded company. The purchase transaction was closed on September 17, 2012, completing the acquisition of nine of the eleven nightclubs. The acquisitions of the remaining two clubs, which are located in Longview and Beaumont, were closed on September 30, 2012 and October 12, 2012, respectively. In a separate transaction, which closed on October 16, 2012, the Companies sold the real estate associated with the nightclubs to Rick’s.

In preparing the combined financial statements, the Companies have evaluated all subsequent events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure through November 30, 2012, the date the combined financial statements were available for issuance.
