Orchid Wealth's questions to RCI Hospitality Holdings Inc (RICK) leadership • Q3 2025
Question
An analyst from Orchid Wealth inquired about the potential value of non-performing real estate available for sale, the estimated net cash proceeds after debt repayment, and how to model the company's new self-insurance program expenses.
Answer
Eric Langan, Chairman, CEO & President, estimated the value of saleable real estate at approximately $28 million. He detailed that one major property has minimal debt, while others would likely yield 40-45% in cash after servicing debt. Regarding the self-insurance, Langan explained that the expense is currently unpredictable as it's based on fluctuating actuarial estimates, noting a $9.4 million year-to-date charge. He expressed hope that establishing a captive insurance company would soon create more predictable costs.
