BOWL AMERICA REPORTS SECOND QUARTER EARNINGS

 

Bowl America Incorporated today reported earnings per share of $.17 for its fiscal 2020 second quarter ended December 29, 2019 and $.23 for the first half of fiscal 2020. Several factors negatively impacted revenues in the current year periods. Seventeen centers were in operation for 5 of 6 months in the current year as a result of the July closing of the leased Manassas location that was not profitable versus 18 centers in operation in the previous year periods. While league play is strong, management believes that mild weather with many dry weekends throughout the current year periods decreased open play traffic. In addition, promotion pricing reduced the per game rate on open play games.

 

Bowl America operates 17 bowling centers and its Class A Common Stock trades on the NYSE American exchange under the symbol BWLA. A more detailed explanation of results is available in the Company’s S.E.C. Form 10-Q filing available at the Company’s website www.bowlamericainc.com.
