The Company said that it expects GAAP earnings per share to be approximately $1.20 for the year, with non-GAAP* EPS of $1.70.

Company president and CEO Eric Langan will discuss the guidance at a conference call/webcast today at 4:30 pm ET. The call-in number is 877-407-8033 (International: 201-689-8033), with webcast at www.ricksinvestor.com. Replay of the call is available at 877-660-6853 (ID number 13572974).

*Explanation of Non-GAAP Terms: Non-GAAP Net Income and Non-GAAP Net Income per Diluted Share (referred to as "Non-GAAP EPS" herein). We exclude from GAAP net income and GAAP net income per diluted share amortization of intangibles, patron taxes, income tax expense, impairment charges, gains and losses from asset sales, stock-based compensation, litigation, loss from discontinued operations and other one-time legal settlements and acquisition costs, and include the Non-GAAP provision for income taxes, calculated as the tax effect at 35% effective tax rate of the pre-tax non-GAAP income before taxes less stock-based compensation, because we believe that excluding such measures helps management and investors better understand our operating activities.

Our Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2013 contains additional details relative to non-GAAP financial measures and is posted on our website at www.ricksinvestor.com.
