HOUSTON, May 5, 2015 /PRNewswire/ — RCI Hospitality Holdings, Inc. (NasdaqGM: RICK) today announced a subsidiary has closed on its acquisition of The Seville Club of Minneapolis, a popular gentlemen’s club known for its comfortable and elegant atmosphere and famous downtown location. A separate RCI subsidiary has closed on the purchase of the club’s real estate.

As previously reported, total consideration of $8.5 million consisted of $4.5 million for the assets of the club business and $4.0 million for its historic renovated building at 15 Glenwood Avenue North. Payment was made through a combination of bank and seller financing and cash.
