"We are committed to our shareholders and our capital allocation strategy," said Eric Langan, Chairman, President and CEO. "RCI continues to grow free cash flow, and we are dedicated to effectively deploying capital to benefit investors.

"Our capital allocation strategy indicates repurchasing shares in the open market when the yield on our free cash flow run rate relative to our market capitalization meets or exceeds double digits. At a current FCF run rate of $26 million that signals buying shares at $27 or less, unless there is a significant strategic rationale to do otherwise."
