BOWL AMERICA REPORTS IMPROVED FISCAL YEAR EARNINGS

 

Bowl America Incorporated today reported earnings per share for the 52-week fiscal year ended July 2, 2017, were $.48, up $.06 from the prior fiscal year’s 53-week earnings. Per share earnings for the fiscal 2017 fourth quarter were $.07 compared to $.10 in the fiscal 2016 fourth quarter that included the extra week.

 

Although fiscal 2017 had one less week than the prior year, the combination of improvement in bowling and ancillary revenue and reduced operating expenses resulted in improved earnings for the year. The change in comprehensive earnings is the result of the change in fair value of  the Company’s holdings of marketable securities on the last day of each fiscal year. 

 

The new fiscal year start, during the typically slower traffic months, has been strong. Hurricane Irma caused the closure of our Florida locations for 2 days but with virtually no property damage.

 

A more detailed explanation of results is available in the Company’s Form 10-K filing available through the website www.bowlamericainc.com. Bowl America operates 18 bowling centers and its Class A common stock trades on the NYSE American under the symbol BWLA.
