Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes thereto included in this quarterly report.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENT AND INFORMATION
The Company is including the following cautionary statement in this 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 in this Form 10-QSB are forward-looking statements. Words such as "expects," "believes," "anticipates," "may," and "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. 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 limitation, 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 expectation, beliefs or projections will result, 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: the risks and uncertainties relating to our Internet operations, the impact and implementation of the sexually oriented business ordinances in the jurisdictions where our facilities operate, competitive factors, the timing of the openings of other clubs, the availability of acceptable financing to fund corporate expansion efforts, and the dependence on key personnel. The Company has no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements to reflect the occurrence of future events or circumstances.
GENERAL
Our Company presently conducts its business in two different areas of operation:
1. We own and operate upscale adult nightclubs serving primarily businessmen and professionals that offer live adult entertainment, restaurant and bar operations. We own and operate seven adult nightclubs under the name "Rick's Cabaret" and "XTC" in Houston, Austin and San Antonio, Texas, and Minneapolis, Minnesota. We also own and operate an adult-themed club called "Encounters" that serves the couples or "swingers'" market in Houston. No sexual contact is permitted at any of our locations. On February 19, 2003, we acquired 51% control of the Wild Horse Cabaret adult nightclub near Hobby Airport (9009 Airport Blvd, off I-45) and will operate it as part of our popular XTC Cabaret group for $150,000.
2. We have extensive Internet activities.
Our nightclub revenues are derived from the sale of liquor, beer, wine, food, merchandise, cover charges, membership fees, independent contractors' fees, commissions from vending and ATM machines, valet parking, and other products and service. Our Internet revenues are derived from subscriptions to adult content Internet Web sites, traffic/referral revenues, and commissions earned on the sale of products and services through Internet auction sites, and other activities. Our fiscal year end is September 30.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2003 AS COMPARED TO THE THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2002
The cost of goods sold for the three months ended March 31, 2003 was 14.59% of total revenues compared to 18.33% for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The decrease was due primarily to the reduction in costs of maintaining our Internet operations. The cost of goods sold for the club operation for the three months ended March 31, 2003 was 14.19% of the sales of alcoholic beverages and food compared to 14.99% for the three months ended March 31, 2002. We continued our efforts to achieve reductions in cost of goods sold of the club operations through improved inventory management. We continue a program to improve margins from liquor and food sales and food service efficiency. The cost of sales from our Internet operation for the three months ended March 31, 2003 was 20.23% compared to 41.89% for the three months ended March 31, 2002.
Payroll and related costs for the three months ended March 31, 2003 were $1,293,060 compared to $1,229,429 for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The increase was due to additional personnel in the Company. Management currently believes that its labor and management staff levels are appropriate.
Other selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2003 were $1,679,252 compared to $1,600,881 for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The increase was due primarily to increase in legal and professional, insurance, maintenance and repairs, and other expenses.
Interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2003 was $99,036 compared to $82,549 for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The increase was primarily due to the addition of new debts related to the purchase of treasury stock.
Net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2003 was $28,971 compared to a net income of $285,704 for the three months ended March 31, 2002. The decrease in net income was primarily due to the decrease in revenues in the Company's internet business and an increase in corporate expenses.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2003 AS COMPARED TO THE SIX MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 2002
For the six months ended March 31, 2003, the Company had consolidated total revenues of $7,286,534 compared to consolidated total revenues of $7,964,607 for the fiscal six months ended March 31, 2002, or a decrease of $678,073. The decrease in total revenues was due to the decline in revenues from the Internet business as a result of the Company's transition from programs which generate high revenues with very low margins to programs which will produce higher margins from lower revenues.
The cost of goods sold for the six months ended March 31, 2003 was 14.88% of total revenues compared to 19.83% for the six months ended March 31, 2002. This decrease is attributable to the elimination of cost of goods sold related to the Internet business. The cost of goods sold for the club operations for the six months ended March 31, 2003 was 14.57% and 15.04% for the six months ended March 31, 2002. Management continued its efforts to achieve reductions in cost of goods sold through improved inventory management. The Company continues a program to improve margins from liquor and food sales and food service efficiency.
Payroll and related costs for the six months ended March 31, 2003 were $2,636,529 compared to $2,496,956 for the six months ended March 31, 2002. This increase is a result of additional personnel added to the Company's club operations to eliminate reliance on outside vendors for services. Management currently believes that its labor and management staff levels are appropriate.
Other general and administrative expenses for the six months ended March 31, 2003 were $3,313,197 compared to $3,192,319 for the six months ended March 31, 2002. The increase was due to the legal and accounting, advertising, and insurance expenses.
Interest expense for the six months ended March 31, 2003 was $196,856 compared to $174,271 for the six months ended March 31, 2002. The increase was primarily due to the addition of new debts related to the purchase of treasury stock.
Net income for the six months ended March 31, 2003 was $65,704 compared to $532,926 for the six months ended March 31, 2002. The decrease in net income was primarily due to the decrease in
revenues in Company's internet activities. Management currently believes that the Company is in the position to continue to be profitable in fiscal 2003.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
At March 31, 2003, the Company had a working capital deficit of $389,894 compared to a working capital deficit of $32,997 at September 30, 2002.
Net cash provided by operating activities in the six months ended March 31, 2003 was $329,245 compared to net cash provided of $643,825 for the six months ended March 31, 2002. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities was due to a decrease in net income.
The Company used $317,159 and $311,288 cash in investing activities and $411,947 and $73,079 cash in financing activities in the six months ended March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively.
In the opinion of management, working capital is not a true indicator of the financial status. Typically, businesses in the industry carry current liabilities in excess of current assets because the business receives substantially immediate payment for sales, with nominal receivables, while accounts payable and other current liabilities normally carry longer payment terms. Vendors and purveyors often remain flexible with payment terms providing businesses 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 of revenue growth and mix of sales revenues, overall cash flow, profitability from operations and the level of long-term debt.
We have not established lines of credit or financing other than our existing debt. There can be no assurance that we will be able to obtain additional financing on reasonable terms in the future, if at all, should the need arise.
Because of the large volume of cash we handle, stringent cash controls have been implemented. In the event the sexually oriented business industry is required in all states to convert the entertainers who perform at our locations, from being independent contractors to employee status, we have prepared alternative plans that we believe will protect our profitability. We believe that the industry standard of treating the entertainers as independent contractors provides sufficient safe harbor protection to preclude payroll tax assessment for prior years.
The sexually oriented business industry is highly competitive with respect to price, service and location, as well as the professionalism of the entertainment. Although we believe that we are well-positioned to compete successfully in the future, there can be no assurance that we will be able to maintain our high level of name recognition and prestige within the marketplace.
SEASONALITY
Our nightclub operations are significantly affected by seasonal factors. Historically, we have experienced reduced revenues from April through September with the strongest operating results occurring during October through March. Our experience to date indicates that there does not appear to be a seasonal fluctuation in our Internet activities.
GROWTH STRATEGY
The Company believes that its club operations can continue to grow organically and through careful entry into markets and demographic segments with high growth potential. Upon careful research, new clubs may be opened, or existing clubs acquired, in locations that are consistent with our growth and income targets and which appear receptive to the upscale club formula we have developed. We may form joint ventures or partnerships to reduce start-up and operating costs, with our Company contributing assets in the form of our brand name and management expertise. We may also develop new club concepts that are consistent with our management and marketing skills. We may also acquire real estate in connection with club operations, although some clubs may be in leased premises.
We also expect to continue to grow our Internet profit centers and plan to focus in the future on high-margin activities that leverage our marketing skills while requiring a low level of start-up expense and ongoing operating costs.
Item 3. Controls and Procedures.
Within 90 days prior to the filing of this report, the Company carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. This evaluation was carried out under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including the Company's chief executive officer and chief financial officer. Based on that evaluation, the Company's chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective in timely alerting them to material information required to be included in the Company's periodic reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission. There have been no significant changes in the Company's internal controls or in other factors, which could significantly affect internal controls subsequent to the date the Company carried out its evaluation.
