CapyFin.com Forward Guidance
Company expects performance to continue to expand with new Bombshells locations and the reopening of clubs. Anticipates salaries and wages and SG&A costs to subside in the second half, increasing operating leverage. Aims to increase financial flexibility through debt refinancing and selling excess properties.
Positive Outlook
- Performance should continue to expand with Bombshells Katy, which opened mid-1Q20.
- Bombshells 59 in southwest Houston, which opened mid-2Q20.
- Remodeling and expansion of the first Bombshells in Dallas.
- Scarlett’s Cabaret St. Louis and Rick’s Cabaret Odessa have reopened.
- Closing on our Northeast Corridor acquisition.
Challenges Ahead
- Salaries and wages and SG&A were higher than what we’d like due to accounting, legal and overtime costs related to our recently filed 10-K.
- These costs will continue to be somewhat high in 2Q20.
- One less selling week during the high-volume Thanksgiving and Christmas period.
- Two clubs closed part of the quarter for repairs.
