RCI Hospitality Holdings, Inc. has filed a Form 12b-25 indicating a delay in submitting its Form 10-Q (Quarter Report) for the quarter ended December 31, 2025. The company’s principal offices are in Houston, Texas, and the delayed filing concerns its standard quarterly report to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
The company links this delay directly to problems finishing its Form 10-K (Yearly Report) for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025. Management notes that the annual audit has been slowed by additional procedures required after a state indictment in New York on September 16, 2025, which had previously been disclosed to investors.
Because the Form 10-K (Yearly Report) is still incomplete, RCI says it cannot finalize or file the Form 10-Q (Quarter Report) for the December 31 quarter without unreasonable effort and expense. In other words, the quarterly numbers depend on completing the annual financials and related audit work first.
The company has not checked the box that would commit it to filing within the standard 5-day grace period for a late Form 10-Q (Quarter Report). As a result, investors do not yet have a firm date for when either the overdue Form 10-K (Yearly Report) or the delayed Form 10-Q (Quarter Report) will be filed.
RCI states that it does not currently expect any significant change in results of operations versus the same quarter a year earlier, based on what it knows today. This statement is inherently forward-looking and could change once the audit is complete and the quarterly figures are fully reviewed.
Notably, the company confirms that its Form 10-K (Yearly Report) for the year ended September 30, 2025 remains outstanding, meaning it is behind on at least two key SEC reports. This heightens disclosure risk for investors who must make decisions without recent audited financial statements.
The notification emphasizes that RCI is working through the additional audit procedures prompted by the New York indictment and intends to complete its filings once that work is done. The Form 12b-25 is signed on behalf of the company by Chief Financial Officer Albert Molina on February 9, 2026, underscoring executive-level oversight of the delayed reporting.
