PART I

Item 1. Description of Business

VCG Holding Corp. (“VCG”) is in the business of acquiring, owning and operating nightclubs which provide premium quality live adult entertainment, and upscale restaurant and beverage services in a first class environment to affluent patrons. Our management has over 20 years of experience in successfully owning and operating first class nightclubs and has in-depth knowledge of the industry. Our management has contributed approximately $3.5 million cash and contributed assets of approximately $2.4 million in exchange for shares of our common stock. We were incorporated in Colorado in 1998.

We currently own three nightclubs currently operating, have one nightclub under construction, and two under management agreements with an option to purchase.

•

PT’s^® Showclub in Indianapolis, Indiana (the “Indianapolis Club”)

•

PT’s^® Showclub in Memphis, Tennessee (the “ Memphis Club”), and

•

The Platinum Club in Brooklyn, Illinois, also known as East Saint Louis (the “St. Louis Club”).

The St. Louis Club was purchased from a third party. The Indianapolis Club and the Memphis Club were owned in part and operated by affiliates of VCG’s current management for 14 and two years, respectively.

We believe that there is an opportunity for industry consolidation of many profitable first class clubs which are available for acquisition on favorable terms. We also believe that the benefits of consolidation - namely, centralized management, more efficient operations, less costly overhead, and increased market recognition and identity of the clubs under shared name branding will increase the current profitability of these nightclubs.

Our Business Strategy

VCG’s business strategy is to consolidate first class adult entertainment nightclubs and increase their profitability. VCG believes this can be accomplished through the opportunities that consolidation provides for economies of scale in management, operations and marketing.

We plan to acquire established nightclubs in existing locations in order to avoid the substantial costs and risks associated with building and licensing nightclubs in new locations with no existing customer base. The adult entertainment nightclub industry is fragmented with most nightclub owners owning only one club. Adult entertainment nightclubs are rarely advertised for sale; but rather, their availability is made known through word-of-mouth within the industry. VCG, through its extensive contacts in the industry, is aware of numerous nightclubs that are for sale throughout the United States. Typically, these nightclubs become

available for sale because of owners reaching retirement age, increased operating expenses causing decreased profitability, and inability or unwillingness to commit capital in order to upgrade older nightclubs.

Management believes that if VCG able to achieve sufficient public market valuation for its shares as a public company, VCG will be able to make all or partial stock acquisitions of nightclubs.

The Adult Entertainment Industry

For years, sexual content has been continually increasing in the media – including movies, television, magazines, newspapers, and the Internet. Capitalizing on this opportunity, businesses that were not previously involved in the industry have now become major providers of adult entertainment. These include hotel chains, cable and satellite television companies, national video store companies and long distance telephone carriers.

Public acceptance and demand for the premium quality adult entertainment nightclubs have become common in both cities and suburbs throughout the United States as there is an increasingly open and healthy attitude toward sexuality. There is a strong existing and developing market among businessmen, professionals and other affluent persons for first-class adult entertainment nightclubs.

According to Forbes magazine (May 23, 2001), as the adult entertainment industry has become more socially acceptable, it has grown to an $11 billion market and “Adult entertainment businesses can expect to see their market capitalizations at least triple over the next five to seven years.”

The social acceptance and accelerating growth in adult entertainment includes adult entertainment nightclubs, particularly first class adult entertainment nightclubs, which are popular among affluent customers for social and business entertainment.

Our Product – First Class Adult Entertainment Nightclubs

Management believes maximum profitability is obtained from owning and operating only first class adult entertainment nightclubs which attract an affluent clientele. VCG’s first class entertainment nightclubs are distinguished by the following features:

Facilities. The facilities are within ready access to the principal business, tourist and/or commercial districts in the metropolitan areas in which they are located. Both the exterior of the buildings and the interior design and decor of the clubs provide the appearance and atmosphere of an upscale restaurant. The facilities have state of the art sound systems, theater-quality lighting and professional stage design. Some facilities have a VIP Room. This is a separate area of the club accessible only to those who purchase annual memberships. The VIP Room provides an elegant, quiet atmosphere with its own restaurant featuring a more upscale food menu. The VIP Room is particularly conducive to business entertaining.

Professional On-Site Management. The facilities are managed by persons who are highly experienced in the restaurant hospitality industry. The managers are responsible for maintaining the overall quality of the nightclubs and, specifically: (i) providing attentive customer service; (ii) supervising all personnel, including kitchen staff, bartenders, security, waitresses, disc jockey’s and performers; and (iii) maintaining the facility as clean, inviting, safe and comfortable.

Food and Beverage Operations. The food and beverage operations meet the high standard of business entertaining provided by an upscale restaurant. An experienced chef is responsible for staffing and operating the food service and an experienced bar manager is responsible for staffing and operating the beverage service. The food menu ranges from buffet lunch service to fine dining for both lunch and dinner. The beverage menu ranges from domestic and imported beer to fine wines, champagne and premium liquors.

Entertainment. The facilities provide premium quality female performers. The highest standards are maintained for appearance, attitude, demeanor, dress and personality. The entertainment encourages repeat visits, increases the average length of a patron’s stay and attracts customers to a late night destination, all of which provides for increased revenue.

Our Operations

We have contracted with International Entertainment Consultants, Inc. (“IEC”) to manage our nightclub operations, and in October 2003, we purchased 100% of the outstanding common stock of IEC. IEC has more than 20 years of experience in managing adult entertainment nightclubs and currently has fifteen clubs under management including VCG’s three current clubs. Our Chairman, Mr. Lowrie and our President, Mr. Ocello are affiliated with the other nightclubs managed by IEC. IEC has approximately 75 employees.

The principal employees of IEC have been with that company for four to 20 years and they are highly experienced in this industry. IEC is responsible for all aspects of club management, administration and accounting. Among other things, IEC is responsible for the following:

•

Recruiting, hiring, training and supervision of on-site management;

•

Implementing club operating policies and standards and monitoring compliance;

•

Establishing and maintaining accounting and inventory controls and record keeping for the clubs;

•

Negotiating all contracts including those with vendors and suppliers, and particularly food and beverage;

•

Developing and implementing, advertising, marketing and promotional programs;

•

Developing and maintaining relationships with local authorities, vendors and area businesses; and

•

Monitoring and maintaining the quality and performance of each club.

Through this centralization of management, we are able to realize a substantial reduction in management expense that would otherwise be incurred.

All nightclubs managed by IEC, including those clubs owned by VCG, pay their proportionate share of IEC’s general operating and administrative expenses for all of the nightclubs managed by IEC. These expenses do not include the direct operating expenses of each of our nightclubs which include: food and beverage operations, employee payroll, advertising, entertainment and maintenance of facilities.

Compliance Policies and Controls

IEC has developed compliance policies for nightclub operations aimed at assuring that the operations of each club are conducted in conformance with local, state and federal laws. The principal areas to which the policies are directed are illegal drug use and sexual activity. In keeping with the upscale nightclub environment, IEC does not use visible security, but rather persons who act in a host capacity to address and resolve situations in which a customer’s behavior may be inappropriate.

IEC has developed and implemented internal operating and accounting controls to track cash, credit card transactions and food and beverage inventory. These controls also help to maintain the accuracy of VCG’s operating and accounting records. In particular, IEC has developed sophisticated software programs to capture operating information and generate reports for efficient management and control of the nightclub. Analysis of the information provided enables IEC to detect atypical variances from expected operating results based on historical activity.

Market Environment/Marketing

The demographic market for adult entertainment nightclubs is substantial as nightclubs appeal to men of all age groups. Within this market, there are two general categories of nightclubs, each having distinct differences in entertainment quality, atmosphere and food service. On the lower-end are “strip clubs” which typically have small facilities and a low-grade atmosphere. These clubs generally cater to a blue-collar clientele, have limited or non-existent food service and a small number of entertainers who are not of the caliber of the upper-scale clubs. The upper-scale clubs are termed “gentlemen’s clubs.” These clubs are characterized by their large facilities and featuring dozens of entertainers on any given night. They offer a variety of entertainment such as sports on television monitors, billiard tables, VIP rooms and specialty acts. Their target market/audience is a more affluent clientele of businessmen and professionals

for whom gentlemen’s clubs are increasingly becoming a viable and attractive entertainment option. In addition, they are no longer limited to providing evening entertainment; daytime operations are also growing, particularly during the lunch hour. Food is prepared by an on-site chef and the menu typically offers a wide variety of entrees and appetizers. Most clubs provide a buffet at least once a week as a promotion special.

VCG focuses on acquiring and marketing upscale gentlemen’s clubs in areas that are not market saturated and already receptive to well managed adult gentlemen’s clubs. Adult entertainment nightclubs tend to group together by location. When clubs are within relatively close proximity, regular customers are more likely to try a new club. A significant marketing benefit for VCG will be its ownership of multiple clubs in multiple cities which will enable VCG to obtain brand name recognition for its first-class adult entertainment nightclubs. Management believes VCG is well positioned both financially and managerially to continue to grow in the adult entertainment industry. By expanding into other locations in other cities and states, VCG will have the opportunity to realize the benefits of both the economies of scale and name recognition marketing.

The ability to attract new patrons to a nightclub for the first time is critical to a nightclub’s success. Promotions, advertising and specials are the typical means to market a nightclub. Newspaper and magazine coupons are often used to attract new customers. Professional sporting events are a natural advertising venue, including ticket-stub drink vouchers and other advertising, including aerial banners at outdoor events.

During the past 20 years operating nightclubs, IEC has developed a results-proven, cost-efficient marketing program. The clubs are marketed as a safe and upscale environment for adult entertainment. The marketing strategy is to attract new customers, to increase the frequency of visits by existing customers and establish a higher level of name recognition. The marketing program includes advertising in travel and hospitality magazines, print advertising, billboards with distinctive graphics and taxi cab reader boards. The target market is the business-convention traveler and local professionals and business people. In addition, IEC conducts various promotion activities throughout the year to keep the club’s name before the public. In order to promote a good community reputation, the clubs actively sponsor and participate in local charitable events and make contributions to local charities.

Growth

Our goal is to become the leader in the first-class adult entertainment nightclub industry through acquisition of existing nightclubs. We anticipate that the increase in the profitability of our recently acquired nightclubs and the addition of more nightclubs will be a major source of growth. We plan to have at least three nightclubs by fiscal year end 2004. We plan to increase revenue at our recently acquired nightclubs through the efficiencies provided by consolidation and the application of the experience and expertise of IEC.

Competition

The adult entertainment nightclub industry is very competitive with respect to price, location and quality of (i) the facility, (ii) entertainment, (iii) service and (iv) food and beverages. Further, the industry is especially sensitive to ever-changing and unpredictable competitive trends which cannot be easily predicted and which are beyond our control.

We have many competitors in the metropolitan areas in which we are located and intend to expand. Some competitors have substantially greater financial resources and a longer history of operations than the nightclubs currently owned by VCG. Changes in customer preferences, economic conditions, demographic trends and the location, number of and quality of competing nightclubs could adversely affect our business, as could a shortage of experienced local management and hourly employees. We believe our nightclubs enjoy a high level of repeat business and customer loyalty due to our upscale restaurant atmosphere, food quality, premium entertainment, perceived price-value relationship and efficient service.

Government Regulations

Adult entertainment nightclubs are subject to ever changing local, state and federal regulation. Our business is regulated by local zoning, local and state liquor licensing, local ordinances and state and federal time place and manner restrictions. In the states in which we currently operate, liquor licenses renew annually, and are considered to be a “privileged” license that could be subject to suspension or revocation. The adult entertainment provided by our nightclubs has elements of speech and expression and, therefore, enjoys some protection under the First Amendment to the United States Constitution. However, the protection is limited to the expression, and not the conduct of an entertainer. While our nightclubs are generally well established in their respective markets, there can be no assurance that local, state and/or federal licensing and other regulations will permit our nightclubs to remain in operation or profitable in the future.

Trademarks

The PT’s^® name and logo are trademarks registered with the United States Patent and Trademark Office. We have been granted a license to use the trademarks by Lowrie Management, LLLP, an affiliate of VCG. There is currently no fee for the license. Any future fee will be reviewed for fairness by, and be subject to the approval of, a majority of independent directors. Until then, and as is currently the case, any such fee will be at a price the fairness of which will be established by an independent valuation.

Employees and Independent Contractors

As of December 31, 2003, VCG and its subsidiaries had approximately 270 employees in food and beverage service capacities. VCG has 20 executive personnel provided by IEC. VCG’s employees are not members of a union and VCG has never suffered a work stoppage. The

performers providing entertainment in the nightclubs are not employees of VCG. They are self-employed independent contractors who work at VCG’s nightclubs on a non-exclusive basis. The performers pay VCG a fee for providing the facilities for them to perform. The performers’ source of revenue is tips from nightclub customers.

Risk Factors

Our success is subject to the risks described below, among others. Each of these risk factors could adversely affect the price of our common stock, our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We may not be able to acquire additional nightclubs and we may not be able to operate on a profitable basis.

Our growth strategy will depend in large part on our ability to acquire additional nightclubs and to operate our clubs on a profitable basis. The success of our planned expansion will depend upon numerous factors, many of which are beyond our control, including the following:

•

the ability to locate suitable nightclubs which are available for acquisition;

•

competition for nightclub acquisitions;

•

the ability negotiate nightclub acquisitions and leases on favorable terms;

•

the ability to secure and maintain required governmental approvals and permits;

•

the ability to hire, train and retain qualified operating personnel, especially managers;

•

competition in our markets; and

•

general economic conditions.

We have had limited operations which makes our future operating results difficult to predict.

We were incorporated as a Colorado corporation in 1998 and in the last two years became the owner of three nightclubs, including real estate, located in suburbs of St. Louis, Missouri; Memphis, Tennessee; and, Indianapolis, Indiana, which have been in business since 1992, 2000 and 1988, respectively. We have acquired a location in Phoenix, AZ that is under construction and due to open in May 2004, have under management a location in Denver, CO owned by the Chairman and manage a location in Hawaii with an option to purchase up to fifty-one percent. We have a limited operating history. We face the risks and uncertainties of other early-stage companies. Our limited operating history and history of losses make future operating results difficult to predict.

We may need additional financing and we may not be able to obtain it. As a result, our business expansion plans may be significantly limited.

If cash generated from our operations is insufficient to satisfy our working capital and capital expenditure requirements during the next year to two years, we will need to raise additional funds through the public or private sale of our equity or debt securities. The timing and amount of our capital requirements will depend on a number of factors, including cash flow and cash requirements for nightclub acquisitions. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of equity or convertible debt securities, the percentage ownership of our then-existing shareholders will be reduced. We cannot assure you that additional financing will be available on terms favorable to us, if at all. If adequate funds are not available on acceptable terms, our ability to fund our expansion, take advantage of unanticipated opportunities, or otherwise respond to competitive pressures, could be significantly limited. Our business, financial condition and results of operations may be harmed by such limitations.

Our directors and executive officers own a majority of our common stock and may exercise significant influence over our direction and policies. Accordingly, non-management shareholders are subject to the control of our company by our management.

Our directors and executive officers beneficially own approximately 66.51% of the outstanding shares of our common stock. As a result of this stock ownership, management has sufficient voting power to significantly influence our direction and policies, the election of directors, the outcome of any other matter submitted to a vote of shareholders, and a change in control.

Our business operations are subject to regulatory uncertainties which may affect our ability to acquire additional nightclubs, remain in operation or be profitable.

There is substantial competition in the nightclub entertainment industry which may effect our ability to operate profitably or acquire additional clubs.

Our company and its existing nightclubs (and any other clubs that we may acquire) face competition from other nightclubs, both for nightclub acquisitions and patrons. These competitors may have greater financial and management resources than our company. In addition, the industry is especially sensitive to ever-changing and unpredictable competitive trends and competition for general entertainment dollars which cannot be easily predicted and which are beyond our control.

Our business is dependent upon management and employees for continuing operations and expansion.

Our success will depend, to a significant extent, on the efforts and abilities of Troy H. Lowrie, our Chairman of the Board, and Micheal L. Ocello, our President. The loss of the services of Messrs. Lowrie and/or Ocello could have a material and continuing adverse effect on our business. In addition, if our business grows, we will need to hire additional management and employees.

Our business plan and proposed strategy has not been independently evaluated.

We have not obtained any independent evaluation of our business plan and proposed business strategy. There can be no assurance that our nightclubs or proposed strategy will generate sufficient revenues to maintain profitability.

We may be subject to uninsured risks which if realized could expose us to liabilities which we may not be able to pay.

We maintain insurance in amounts we consider adequate for personal injury and property damage to which our nightclubs may be subject. When available at reasonable rates, we maintain personal injury liquor liability insurance. However, there can be no assurance that we will not be exposed to potential liabilities in excess of the coverage provided by insurance, including, but not limited to, liabilities which may be imposed pursuant to state “dram shop” statutes or common law theories of liability. In general, “dram shop” statutes provide that a person injured by an intoxicated person has the right to recover damages from an establishment that wrongfully served alcoholic beverages to such person if it was apparent to the server that the individual being sold, served or provided with an alcoholic beverage was obviously intoxicated to the extent that he presented a clear danger to himself and others.

We could use the issuance of additional shares of our authorized stock to deter a change in control. Even if a change in control would be beneficial to our shareholders, management would be able to maintain control of our company.

We currently have 8,026,559 shares of common stock outstanding, out of a total of 50,000,000 shares of common stock and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock authorized for future

issuance under our Articles of Incorporation. This does not include 468,210 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under our 2002 Stock Option and Stock Bonus Plan and 225,000 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under our 2003 Stock Option and Stock Bonus Plan. The remaining shares of common stock and preferred stock not issued or reserved for specific purposes may be issued without any action or approval of our shareholders unless such approval is required by applicable law. The issuance of additional shares would make it more difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if its doing so would be beneficial to our shareholders.

We do not anticipate paying dividends in the foreseeable future.

Since our inception we have not paid any dividends and we do not anticipate paying any dividends in the foreseeable future. We expect that future earnings, if any, will be used for working capital and to finance growth.

The public market for our common stock may not be sustained and shareholders may not have liquidity for their shares.

Our stock is currently listed on the Over-the-Counter (“OTC”) Bulletin Board and we have applied for the listing of our common stock on the American Stock Exchange (“AMEX”). However, there can be no assurance that a public market for our common stock will be sustained or that shareholders will have liquidity for their shares.

Future sales of our common stock may depress the price of our stock.

A registration statement on Form SB-2 registering up to 3,136,778 shares of our common stock which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in May 2003. Upon completion of the offering, we may have up to 8,726,559 shares of common stock outstanding. All of these shares will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Securities Act”), except for 74,922 shares issued to a former affiliate of our Company and 4,719,650 shares owned by affiliates not being registered at this time. The future sale of these shares of our common stock may depress the price of our stock. Any sales of shares owned or subsequently purchased by “affiliates” as that term is defined in Rule 144 of the Securities Act, are subject to certain limitations and restrictions.

Forward Looking Statements

This annual report contains forward-looking statements. These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance. We have attempted to identify forward looking statements by using words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “future,” “may,” “should,” “plan,” “projected,” “intend” and similar expressions. These statements are only predictions and are based on our beliefs and the assumptions we made using information currently available to us. Because these statements reflect our current views and assumptions concerning future events, these statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors. Our actual results could differ materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. Undue reliance should not be placed on these forward-looking statements which apply only as of the date of this annual report.

Item 2. Description of Property:

VCG’s Offices

VCG maintains its offices at 390 Union Boulevard, Suite 540, Lakewood, Colorado 80228, telephone number (303) 934-2424, the facilities are shared with its subsidiary IEC for which it pays a pro rata share of rent based on all clubs managed by IEC. VCG is currently paying monthly rent of approximately $5,200 to a third party.

VCG’s Nightclubs

Each of VCG’s three adult entertainment nightclub businesses is held in a separate, wholly-owned subsidiary and the related real estate and leases are held by a fourth wholly-owned subsidiary.

The Indianapolis Club is owned by Indy Restaurant Concepts, Inc., an Indiana corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of VCG. The club has been in business since 1988. VCG began operating the nightclub on June 30, 2002. The PT’s^® Showclub is located in Indianapolis, Indiana in a 7,200 square foot space.

The Memphis Club is owned by Tennessee Restaurant Concepts, Inc., a Tennessee corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of VCG. The club has been in business since 2000. VCG acquired and began operating the nightclub on June 30, 2002. The PT’s^® Showclub is located in Memphis, Tennessee in a 14,000 square foot building.

The St. Louis Club is owned by Platinum of Illinois, Incorporated, an Illinois corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of VCG. The club has been in business since 1992. VCG acquired Platinum of Illinois, Incorporated and began operating the nightclub on May 1, 2002. The Platinum Club is located in Brooklyn, Illinois (known as East Saint Louis) in a 9,000 square foot building.

The real estate and leases related to the nightclubs are owned by VCG RE.

In March 2003, VCG RE purchased a building, land and adult entertainment license in Phoenix, Arizona, where VCG intends to locate an additional club. The building is approximately 16,000 square feet (including a 5,000 square foot mezzanine) and the land is

approximately four acres. VCG expects that the transfer of the license will be approved in the first quarter, the refinish of the property will be completed and the club will be operational in the second quarter of 2004.

In connection with the purchase of Centerfolds nightclub in Denver from Larisa, Inc. (an unrelated third party) for $1,300,000, the Company authorized a loan of $1,300,000 to Mr. Lowrie pursuant to a promissory note, due in one year at 9% interest, secured by the stock of VCG Restaurant Denver, Inc. (“VCGD”) Mr. Lowrie purchased the club in the name of VCGD and will transfer VCGD by canceling the note. The Company is receiving a management fee of $10,000 per month

VCG signed a letter of intent in February 2004 to purchase 100% of the outstanding stock of Classic Affairs, Inc. (Classic). Classic owns and operates a premium adult nightclub in downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota under the name of Schieks Palace Royale. Under the terms of the agreement, VCG will acquire 100% of outstanding common shares of Classic. The purchase price will be made up of cash, preferred stock, long-term notes and common stock with options. The allocation of the source of funds will be finalized in the definitive agreement to be signed upon approval of the transfer of the liquor license in late April. In addition to the business, VCG retains an option to purchase the real estate. The real estate used by Schieks Palace Royale was a federal reserve bank and is registered as a federal historic landmark. VCG anticipates closing under the definitive agreement within one week of the liquor license transfer in early May.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

VCG is not a party to any legal proceedings. VCG is unaware of any pending litigation or proceeding involving a director, officer, employee or agent of VCG where indemnification will be required or permitted. We are not aware of any threatened litigation or proceeding which may result in a claim for such indemnification.

Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

No matters were submitted to a vote of VCG’s security holders during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003.

Item 6. Management Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

The following discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our financial statements and related notes. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Our actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors including, but not limited to, those discussed in “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this prospectus.

Overview

We are in the business of acquiring, owning and operating nightclubs which provide premium quality live adult entertainment, restaurant and beverage services in an up-scale environment to affluent patrons. At this time, we own and operate three nightclubs located in suburbs of Memphis, Tennessee; Indianapolis, Indiana; and, St. Louis, Illinois.

We were incorporated in Colorado in December 1998. We were formed as a subsidiary of our former parent company for the purpose of holding certain assets transferred upon our parent’s merger with a pharmaceutical company that obtained $20 million in funding. Accordingly, from inception until April 2002, we did not have any business operations.

In April 2002, our current management and their affiliates purchased 1,236,428 shares of our previously issued and outstanding common stock for $125,000 from our former officers and directors, Albert Brenman and A. Thomas Tenenbaum. They received these shares as a pro rata dividend to all shareholders of the parent company in connection with the merger and for

additional capital contributions. This transaction resulted in a change of control of VCG. Mr. Tenenbaum sold all of his shares for a gain on sale of $63,000. Mr. Brenman retained 74,922 shares and sold the balance of his shares for a gain on sale of $60,000. There were no fees paid in the transaction.

Also in April 2002, Lowrie Management, LLLP (“Lowrie Management”), an entity affiliated with the new Chairman of VCG, Troy H. Lowrie, purchased 1,585,000 shares of common stock from VCG for $1,585,000. In addition, VCG sold 515,000 shares of its common stock for $515,000 in a private placement.

On April 30, 2002, VCG acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Platinum of Illinois, Inc., an Illinois corporation (“Platinum”), for $2,000,000. Platinum has operated The Platinum Club in East St. Louis, Illinois since 1992.

In May 2002, as part of the purchase of The Platinum Club, VCG acquired a five-year lease on the 9,000 square foot building and land on which The Platinum Club is located for base rent of $900,000, which is to be paid in monthly installments of $15,000. At the end of the five-year term, VCG has the option to pay $900,000 as a final installment on the purchase of the building and land. VCG has elected to capitalize this lease under FASB 13. The value of the building and land under the lease is $1,421,628. Mr. Lowrie has personally guaranteed the lease.

In June 2002, Lowrie Management provided VCG with a long-term credit facility of $1,400,000 which was fully drawn down in June 2002 as part of the purchase of the property in Indianapolis, Indiana. Interest is charged initially at 9%, and all outstanding principal and accrued interest is due July 2007. The terms of this credit facility include a provision for conversion at any time after June 30, 2003, at the election of the lender, into shares of common stock of VCG at $1.00 per share. At December 31, 2002, VCG had re-paid $80,000 together with interest. In April 2003, VCG drew down the available $80,000 under the credit facility in connection with the acquisition of the Phoenix, Arizona property. The credit facility was converted to common stock on July 1, 2003.

On June 30, 2002, VCG acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Tennessee Restaurant Concepts, Inc., a Tennessee corporation (“TRC”), which was valued at $604,800 for 604,800 shares of VCG’s common stock. TRC has operated PT’s^® Showclub in Memphis, Tennessee (the “Memphis Club”) since 2000. VCG also acquired the 14,000 square foot building in which the club is located. The purchase price consisted of the assumption of the $1,640,000 mortgage on the property and 195,200 shares of VCG’s common stock valued at $1.00 per share. Mr. Lowrie has personally guaranteed the $1,640,000 mortgage on the property.

Also on June 30, 2002, VCG acquired all of the assets of Indy of Colorado Ltd., an Indiana corporation (“Indy”), which were valued at $1,590,000 for 1,590,000 shares of VCG’s common stock. Indy has operated PT’s^® Showclub in Indianapolis, Indiana since 1988. In connection with the transaction, VCG Real Estate Holding, Inc., a Colorado corporation (“VCG RE”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of VCG, purchased the building and land on which PT’s^®

Showclub in Indianapolis, Indiana is located. The Purchase Agreement for the building and land was originally between the seller and Lowrie Management and was subsequently assigned to VCG RE. The purchase price of $2,550,000 was paid in $1,550,000 cash and a $1,000,000 line of credit secured by a deed of trust. Any amounts drawn down and re-paid are available to VCG under the credit facility. The cash portion of the purchase price was paid from VCG’s cash flow and from drawing down the entire $1,400,000 long-term credit facility provided by Lowrie Management. Mr. Lowrie has personally guaranteed the $1,000,000 line of credit.

In March 2003, VCG entered into a Line of Credit and Security Agreement whereby VCG obtained a $1,200,000 short-term credit facility which expires in March 2004 and bears interest at 6.5% per annum.

In March 2003, VCG RE purchased a building, land and adult entertainment license in Phoenix, Arizona, where VCG intends to locate an additional club. The purchase price of $3,800,000 was paid in $1,400,000 cash and a $2,400,000 mortgage on the property. The cash portion of the purchase price was paid from: (a) VCG’s cash flow; (b) drawing down the available $80,000 on the $1,400,000 long-term credit facility; and (c) drawing down the entire $1,200,000 short-term credit facility.

In July 2003, VCG completely refinanced the properties on which the Indianapolis and Memphis Clubs are located. In connection with the refinancing, VCG will repay the $1,000,000 line of credit secured by a deed of trust on the Indianapolis property and the balance of the $1,640,000 mortgage, less an $80,000 prepayment discount on the Memphis property. There is a $1,440,000 mortgage on the Indianapolis property and a $872,000 mortgage on the Memphis property. These mortgages have a 10 year amortization with a 6% per annum interest rate secured by the property and the personal guarantee of Mr. Lowrie.

In connection with the purchase of Centerfolds nightclub in Denver from Larisa, Inc. for $1,300,000, the Company authorized a loan of $1,300,000 to Mr. Lowrie pursuant to a promissory note, due in one year at nine percent (9%) interest, secured by the stock of VCG Restaurant Denver, Inc. “VCGD” Mr. Lowrie purchased the club in the name of VCGD and will transfer VCGD to the Company.

The Company approved a line of credit with Thomas O’Hara for $700,000 with an annual interest rate of six and half percent (6.5%), and issued Mr. O’Hara 23,333 shares of restricted common stock. The Company had drawn the line of credit for the full $700,000 and has repaid $200,000 plus interest on August 1, 2003. The original draw on the note was used in connection with the loan to Mr. Lowrie for the Centerfolds nightclub purchase.

In addition the Company has a note to VCGD in connection with funding the $1,300,000 payment for the purchase of the nightclub. The interest accrued on the note is $68,250 at December 31, 2003. The Company borrowed $975,000 from a bank and the bank was paid off by VCGD from a loan it secured from a bank. The board agreed to continue to pay to VCGD the

same amount as the bank was receiving and the loan will be removed as part of the Company’s acquisition of VCGD. The outstanding balance at December 31, 2003 was $945,487. During the fourth quarter of 2003 the Company advanced $239,472 to VCGD to remodel. At December 31, 2003 the outstanding balance on the advance was $242,329 including interest.

In July 2003, VCG entered into a Line of Credit and Security Agreement whereby VCG obtained a $225,000 short-term credit facility that expires in July, 2004 and bears interest at 6.5% per annum.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

At December 31, 2003, VCG had working capital of $125,602. The increase in working capital is primarily due to the refinancing of the long term debt and earnings.

VCG had stockholder’s equity of $7,537,767 at December 31, 2003 as compared to $4,970,693 at December 31, 2002. The increase is the result of acquisitions, operations, and the contribution of $2,048,068 cash for common stock.

The net cash used in operations for the year ended December 31, 2003 was $386,475 as compared to proceeds from operations in 2002 of $693,375. VCG used $1,526,866 of 2003 cash flow for advances on construction, advances to the Hawaii opportunity and receivables.

stock of VCG at $1.00 per share. At December 31, 2003, VCG had paid $59,258 of interest and converted the $1,400,000 note payable into common stock. In March 2003, VCG drew down the available $80,000 under the credit facility in connection with the acquisition of the Phoenix, Arizona property.

In March 2003, VCG obtained and fully drew down a $1,200,000 short-term credit facility as part of the purchase of the property in Phoenix, Arizona. Interest is charged at the rate of 6.5% per annum, and all outstanding principal and accrued interest is due in March 2005. On March 31, 2004, the outstanding balance of the credit facility was $1,200,000.

Management believes the operations of VCG together with the lines of credit and purchase debt funding will provide adequate liquidity to meet its working capital needs for the next twelve months and will allow for expansion.

VCG has identified acquisition candidates and has entered into discussions with some of the candidates. These discussions are continuing. VCG has one acquisition probable at this time. Accordingly, we have one material capital commitments for an acquisition. VCG signed a letter of intent in February 2004 to purchase 100% of the outstanding stock of Classic Affairs, Inc. (Classic). Classic owns and operates a premium adult nightclub in downtown Minneapolis, Minnesota under the name of Schieks Palace Royale. Under the terms of the agreement, VCG will acquire 100% of outstanding common shares of Classic. The purchase price will be made up of cash, preferred stock, long-term notes and common stock with options. The allocation of the source of funds will be finalized in the definitive agreement to be signed upon approval of the transfer of the liquor license in late April. In addition to the business, VCG retains an option to

purchase the real estate. The real estate used by Schieks Palace Royale was a federal reserve bank and is registered as a federal historic landmark. VCG anticipates closing under the definitive agreement within one week of the liquor license transfer in early May.

Because of the large volume of cash handled by VCG, we have implemented stringent cash controls. We use software developed for us which compares operating data on a historical, current and projected basis. Management believes that it will be able to duplicate the financial controls that exist at its current locations at future locations, and that these controls will provide sufficient safeguards to protect the interests of VCG.

In the event the adult entertainment nightclub industry is required to convert entertainers from independent contractors to employees, VCG has prepared alternative plans that management believes will protect the profitability of VCG. In addition, management believes that the industry standard of treating the entertainers as independent contractors provides sufficient safe harbor protection to preclude any tax assessment for prior years’ payroll taxes.

Recent accounting pronouncements

In July 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) Nos. 141 and 142 “Business Combinations” and “Goodwill and other Intangible Assets.” Statement 141 requires all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 to be accounted for using the purchase method. Under the guidance of Statement 142, goodwill is no longer subject to amortization over its estimated useful life. Rather, goodwill will be subject to at least an annual assessment for impairment by applying a fair value base test. VCG adopted this statement on April 30, 2002. The adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on the financial position or results of operations of VCG, as no adjustment was needed at December 31, 2002.

In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” SFAS 144 requires that those long-lived assets be measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less cost to sell, whether reported in continuing operations or in discontinued operations. Therefore, discontinued operations will no longer be measured at net realizable value or include amounts for operating losses that have not yet occurred. VCG adopted SFAS 144 effective January 1, 2002. The adoption of this statement did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In November 2002, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 45, “Guarantor’s Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others” (“FIN 45”). FIN 45 requires that a liability be recorded for the fair market value of the obligation in the guarantor’s balance sheet upon issuance of a guarantee. In addition, FIN 45 requires certain disclosures about each of the entity’s guarantees. The discloser provisions of FIN 45 are effective foe annual and interim periods after December 31, 2002. The recognition provisions of FIN 45 are applicable prospectively to guarantees entered after December 31, 2002. The adoption of FIN 45 effective January 1, 2003 did not have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial postion.

In May 2003, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 150, “Accounting for Certain Financial Instruments with Characteristics of Both Liabilities and Equity” (“SFAS No.150”). This statement establishes standards for how an issuer classifies and measures certain financial instruments with characteristics of both liabilities and equity. This statement is effective for financial instruments entered into or modified after May 31, 2003, and otherwise is effective for the first interim period beginning after June 15, 2003, with certain exceptions. The adoption of SFAB No. 150, effective July 1, 2003, did not have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations or financial position.

Notes To Consolidated Financial Statements

For the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002

1)	Organization

The Company was organized on May 16, 1989 for the purpose of engaging in any lawful business, but it was management’s plan to seek a business combination. On November 1, 1995, the Company was administratively dissolved by the Colorado Secretary of State due to no renewal of the required corporate report. Effective January 8, 1998, the Company reincorporated for the purpose of carrying on the business of the old corporation. Until January 8, 1998, the Company was a wholly owned subsidiary of Vanden Capital Group, Inc.

The Company reincorporated as a Colorado corporation in December 1998. The Company in April 2002 came under new management and is in the business of acquiring, owning and operating nightclubs which provide premium quality live adult entertainment, restaurant and beverage services in an up-scale environment to affluent patrons. The Company owns and operates three nightclubs located in suburbs of Memphis, Tennessee; Indianapolis, Indiana; and, East St. Louis, Illinois.

In April 2002, the Company’s current management and their affiliates purchased 1,236,428 shares of the Company’s previously issued and outstanding common stock from the former officers and directors of the Company. This transaction resulted in a change of control of the Company.

In April 2002, an entity affiliated with the new Chairman of the Company purchased 1,585,000 shares of common stock from the Company for $1,585,000. In addition, the Company sold 515,000 shares of common stock for $515,000 in a private placement.

On April 30, 2002, the Company acquired for $2,000,000 all of the outstanding capital stock of Platinum of Illinois, Inc., an Illinois corporation (Platinum). The purchase included a lease that has been capitalized and guaranteed by the Company’s Chairman. The lease was transferred to a wholly-owned subsidiary, VCG Real Estate Holdings, Inc. (“VCGRE”).

On May 1, 2002, the Company contracted with an affiliate of the new management to manage operations.

On May 8, 2002, the Company formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Indy Restaurant Concepts, Inc. (“INDY”), an Indiana Corporation. In June 2002 the Company acquired and transferred into INDY all of the assets and liabilities of Indy of Colorado Ltd., a Colorado limited partnership.

1)	Organization (Continued)

In June 2002, VCGRE purchased the building that INDY leases space. VCGRE paid $2,550,000 for the building and land. The property has a mortgage of $1,000,000 from a bank and is guaranteed by the Chairman of the Company. In addition a company affiliated with the Company’s Chairman, provided a $1,400,000 credit facility, which was used to partially fund the purchase of the building and land.

On June 30, 2002, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Tennessee Restaurant Concepts, Inc., a Tennessee corporation (“TRC”), which was valued at $604,800 for 604,800 shares of the Company’s common stock. TRC was owned 100% by an affiliate of the Company and therefore is treated as being under common control with the Company.

On June 30, 2002, VCGRE acquired, from Tennessee Restaurant Concepts II, LP, the 14,000 square foot building used entirely by TRC. The purchase price consisted of the assumption of the $1,640,000 mortgage on the property and 195,200 shares of the Company’s common stock at $1.00 per share. The mortgage has been guaranteed by its Chairman.

In May 2003, VCG RE purchased a building, land and adult entertainment license in Phoenix, Arizona, where VCG intends to locate additional club. The purchase price of $3,800,000 was paid in $1,400,000 cash and a $2,400,000 mortgage on the property. The cash portion of the purchase price was paid from: (a) VCG’s cash flow; (b) drawing down the available $80,000 credit on the long-term credit facility; and (c) drawing down the entire $1,200,000 short-term credit facility. In addition VCG purchased the entire interest in the Epicurean Enterprises, LLC. The asset of Epicurean is the liquor and entertainment license for the location purchased in Phoenix, AZ; VCG paid $100,000 for the Epicurean

On October 1, 2003 VCG purchased 100% of the outstanding common stock of International Entertainment Consultants, Inc. (“IEC”) in consideration for the issuance of 4,769 shares of the Company’s restricted common stock to Troy H. Lowrie, the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, valued at $14,307 ($3.00 per share). IEC was owned 100% by an affiliate of the Company and therefore is treated as being under common control with the Company.

2)	Summary of Accounting Policies

2)	Summary of Accounting Policies (Continued)

Net Income Per Common Share

Net Income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the years, after giving retroactive effect to the reorganization transaction, the reverse split of shares and the combination and acquisitions as explained in notes 1 & 3.

The Company computes net income per common share in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share (“SFAS 128”). SFAS 128 provides for the calculation of basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share includes no dilution and is computed by dividing income available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Dilutive earnings per share reflects the potential dilution of securities that could share in the earnings of the Company. The accompanying presentation is of basic earnings per share because dilutive earnings per share is the same as basic.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

Preparation of the Company’s financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenue and expense during the reporting periods. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates.

Cash Equivalents

For purposes of the statement of cash flows, the Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with an original maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents.

Inventories

Inventories, consisting principally of liquor and food products, are stated at the lower of cost or market (first-in, first-out method).

Property and Equipment

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Cost of property renovations or improvements are capitalized; costs of property maintenance and repairs are charged against operations as incurred. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the individual assets, as follows:


Building and improvements		40 years
Leasehold improvements		7-15 years
Equipment, furniture and signs		5-7 years

2)	Summary of Accounting Policies (Continued)

Stock Options

Effective May 1, 2002, the Company adopted the disclosure only provisions of SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation”(“SFAS 123”). SFAS 123 establishes a fair value based method of accounting for stock-based employee compensation plans; however, it also allows an entity to continue to measure compensation cost for those plans using the intrinsic value based method of accounting prescribed by Accounting Principles Board (“APB”) Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees.”

Under the fair value based method, compensation cost is measured at the grant date based on the value of the award and is recognized over the service period, which is usually the vesting period. Under the intrinsic value based method, compensation cost is the excess, if any, of the quoted market price of the stock at the grant date or other measurement date over the amount an employee must pay to acquire the stock. The Company has elected to continue to account for its employee stock compensation plans under APB Opinion No. 25. As no options were issued during 2002 or 2003 SFAS 123 did not have any effect on the Company’s financial statements.

Goodwill

The Company adopted the Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) Nos. 141 and 142 “Business Combinations” and “Goodwill and other Intangible Assets” on April 30, 2002. Statement 141 requires all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 to be accounted for using the purchase method. Under the guidance of Statement 142, goodwill is no longer subject to amortization over its estimated useful life. Rather, goodwill will be subject to at least an annual assessment for impairment by applying a fair value base test. The adoption of this statement did not have a material effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Company, as no adjustment was needed at December 31, 2003 and 2002.

2)	Summary of Accounting Policies (Continued)

Goodwill (Continued)

The consolidated companies reflected a write down of the goodwill on the books of TRC before the acquisition by the Company. The charge to earnings was accounted for as an ordinary charge of $594,782 against the December 31, 2002 earnings. The amount of the charge was determined by an independent business valuation prepared for the purpose of the acquisition by the Company and the adoption of SFAS 141 and 142. An additional impairment was recorded on the fair market value of the consideration paid by the Company to acquire TRC.

Impaired Assets

In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 143, Accounting for Asset Requirement Obligations. SFAS No. 143 requires the fair value of a liability for an asset retirement obligation to be recognized in the period in which it is incurred if a reasonable estimate of fair value can be made. The associated asset retirement costs are capitalized as part of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset. SFAS No. 143 is effective December 31, 2002 for the Company. The adoption of this statement had no material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

In October 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets. SFAS 144 requires that those long-lived assets be measured at the lower of carrying amount or fair value, less cost to sell, whether reported in continuing operations or in discontinued operations. Therefore, discontinued operations will no longer be measured at net realizable value or include amounts for operating losses that have not yet occurred. The Company adopted SFAS 144 on January 1, 2002. The adoption of this statement did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements.

Accounting Pronouncements

3)	Acquisitions

On April 30, 2002, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Platinum of Illinois, Inc., an Illinois corporation (“Platinum”), for $2,000,000 cash. The acquisition of Platinum was accounted for by the purchase method of accounting; therefore the operations of Platinum have been included in the accompanying statements of operations since the date of acquisition. Platinum is operated as a wholly owned subsidiary. The purchase price and adjustments to the historical book values of Platinum are as follows:


Fair value of inventory acquired	$	6,622
Fair values of property and equipment		78,586
Less, liabilities assumed		(2,104	)
Excess cost over fair values assigned to goodwill		1,916,896

Fair value of inventory acquired		8,118
Fair values of property and equipment		160,907

Purchase price	$	1,590,000

On June 30, 2002, the Company acquired all of the outstanding capital stock of Tennessee Restaurant Concepts, Inc., a Tennessee corporation. The acquisition of TRC was accounted for as an acquisition of an entity under common control; therefore the operations of TRC have been included in the accompanying statements of operations for the entire year ended December 31, 2002. Consideration for the purchase was 604,800 shares of Company common stock valued at their fair market value of $604,800.

At the end of the five year term, the Company has the option to pay $900,000 as a final installment on the purchase of the building and land. The Company has elected to capitalize this lease under FASB 13 as discussed in Note 6. The value of the building and land under the lease is $1,421,628.

On June 30, 2002 as part of the acquisition of TRC, VCGRE acquired the 14,000 square foot building in which TRC is located. The purchase price consisted of the assumption of the $1,640,000 mortgage on the property and 195,200 shares of the Company’s common stock valued at $195,200.

In June 2002, Lowrie Management, LLLP, a company affiliated with Mr. Lowrie, provided a $1,400,000 long-term credit facility which expires in July 2007 and bears interest at 9% per annum. Debt under the credit facility was convertible at any time after June 30, 2003, at the election of the lender, into shares of the Company’s common stock at $1.00 per share. This credit facility was fully drawn to partially fund the purchase of real estate in Indianapolis, Illinois.

The outstanding balance was $1,320,000 as December 31, 2002 and the balance of $1,400,000 was converted to common stock on July 1, 2003. (Note 3 and 10)

(“VCGD”) Mr. Lowrie purchased the club in the name of VCGD and will transfer VCGD to the Company upon the approval of a liquor license for the club. Upon the approval of the liquor license, the Company will purchase VCGD by canceling the note. In the event the liquor license is not approved, the Company will have the option to purchase VCGD or to require Mr. Lowrie pay the loan.

10)	Stockholders’ Equity

Description of Securities

Authorized capital stock consists of 50,000,000 shares of common stock, $.0001 value per share, and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock, $.0001 value per share. As of December 30, 2003 and 2002, 7,976,559 shares and 6,240,000 shares of common stock were outstanding, and no shares of preferred stock were outstanding.

Common Stock

Holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held of record on all matters on which shareholders may vote. Since our common stock does not have cumulative voting rights, the holders of shares having more than 50% of the voting power, if they choose to do so, may elect all directors and the holders of the remaining shares would not be able to elect any directors. In the event of a voluntary or involuntary liquidation of our company, all shareholders are entitled to a pro rata distribution of our assets remaining after payment of claims of creditors and liquidation preferences of any preferred stock. Holders of our common stock have no conversion, redemption or sinking fund rights. All of our outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and non-assessable.

Preferred Stock

The Board of Directors, without further action by the shareholders, is authorized to issue up to 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more series. The board may, without shareholder approval, determine the dividend rates, redemption prices, preferences on liquidation or dissolution, conversion rights, voting rights and any other preferences. The Board has not authorized any series of preferred stock, and there are no agreements or understandings for the issuance of any shares of preferred stock. Because of its broad discretion with respect to the creation and issuance of preferred stock without shareholder approval, the Board could adversely affect the voting power of the holders of our common stock and, by issuing shares of preferred stock with certain voting, conversion and/or redemption rights, could delay, defer or prevent an attempt to obtain control of the Company. The board has authorized sale of 400,000 shares of Class A Preferred. These shares will be issued in 2004 in connection with an acquisition.

Stock Option and Stock Bonus Plans

The Board adopted the 2002 Stock Option and Stock Bonus Plan as of April 23, 2002 and it was approved by our shareholders on July 22, 2002. On June 23, 2003, the Board adopted the 2003 stock option and stock bonus plan. Under the Plans, the Company may grant to designated employees, officers, directors, advisors and independent contractors incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options and stock. By encouraging stock ownership, we seek to motivate Plan participants by allowing them an opportunity to benefit from any increased value of the Company which their individual effort, initiative, and skill help produce. As of December 31, 2003 stock bonuses of 231,790 shares had been issued under the 2002 Plan. Up to 700,000 and 250,000 shares of common stock are authorized for issuance under the 2002 and 2003 Plan, respectively.

(i)

the exercise price of an incentive stock option must be equal to or greater than the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date of grant;

(ii)

the exercise price of an incentive stock option granted to an employee who owns more than 10% of the issued and outstanding common stock must not be less than 110% of the fair market value of the underlying shares of common stock on the date of grant; and

The compensation committee may accelerate or extend the exercisability of any or all outstanding options at any time for any reason.

The decision to change accountants was approved by the Company’s Board of Directors and audit committee. There were no disagreements with Schumacher, resolved or unresolved, on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which, if not resolved to Schumacher’s satisfaction, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with its report. During the Company’s two most recent fiscal years and subsequent interim period, the Company did not consult Causey Demgen & Moore, Inc. regarding: (i) the application of accounting principles to a specific or contemplated transaction, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements; (ii) any matter that was the subject of a disagreement with or advice from Schumacher.

The committee also recommends to the Board whether or not the year-end audited financial statements should be included in VCG’s annual report for filing with the SEC. The committee met three times during the year, reviewed the 10QSB filings and met independently with the audit firm.

The compensation committee consists of the following independent directors of VCG: Robert J. McGraw, Jr., Rand E. Kruger and Allan Rubin The compensation committee administers VCG’s incentive plans, sets policies that govern executives’ annual compensation and long-term incentives, and reviews management performance, compensation, development and succession. The committee met once to review the loans to and from the chairman Troy Lowrie.

The nominating committee consists of the following independent directors of VCG: Rand E. Kruger, Allan S. Rubin and Arthur M. Schwartz. The Nominating Committee identifies candidates for future Board membership and proposes criteria for Board candidates and candidates to fill Board vacancies, as well as a slate of directors for election by the shareholders at each annual meeting. The committee annually assesses and reports to the Board on Board and Board Committee performance and effectiveness; reviews and makes recommendations to the Board concerning the composition, size and structure of the Board and its committees; and annually reviews and reports to the Board on Directors’ compensation and benefits.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), requires VCG’s Directors, certain officers and persons who own more than ten percent of the outstanding common stock of VCG, to file with the SEC reports of changes in ownership of the common stock of VCG held by such persons. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent shareholders are also required to furnish VCG with copies of all forms they file under this regulation. No Section 16(a) reports were filed in 2003. The forms were all filed in 2004.

No compensation was awarded to, earned by or paid to our executive officers during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2001. For his services as our President, Mr. Ocello receives an annual salary of $24,000. This salary commenced May 1, 2002. For his services as Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Prosser receives compensation of $75,000 per year. This compensation commenced on November 1, 2002. No other compensation has been awarded to, earned by or paid to any other executive officer.

We have contracted with International Entertainment Consultants, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of VCG (“IEC”), to operate our nightclubs. Each of our nightclubs pays its proportionate share of IEC’s general operating and administrative expenses for all of the nightclubs managed by IEC. These include IEC’s expenses for 21 management personnel and Mr. Ocello who manages these employees in his capacity as National Director of Operations for IEC. IEC paid $114,400 in 2003 to Unique Entertainment Consultants, Inc. (“UEC”) for Mr. Ocello’s services relating to all clubs under IEC Management, including VCG’s clubs. UEC will continue to be paid by IEC for Mr. Ocello’s services. Mr. Ocello is a principal of UEC.

Mr. Prosser serves as Chief Financial Officer for VCG. VCG pays Donald W. Prosser, P.C. (“DWP”) for his services. Mr. Prosser is a principal of DWP. Mr. Prosser also has duties as Chief Financial Officer of IEC which are not related to his duties with VCG. For these services DWP received $25,000 for 2003. Mr. Lowrie received compensation from IEC of $-0- in 2003, attributable to the management of the clubs prior to their acquisition by VCG. Mr. Lowrie ceased being compensated for club management after VCG acquired the clubs.

Because our day-to-day operations are managed by IEC, our executive officers devote as much time as is necessary, but less than their full-time, to VCG’s business. Mr. Lowrie, our Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Ocello, a director and our President, and Ms. Bowles Cook, our Secretary and Treasurer, each devotes approximately 15 hours per week to VCG’s business. Mr. Prosser, a director and our Chief Financial Officer, commits approximately 50 hours per week to VCG’s business.

Compensation of Directors

We currently do not pay cash compensation to our directors. Our directors are reimbursed for expenses they incur in attending meetings of the Board. No directors have received stock options or stock bonuses to date. The directors will be compensated 5,000 shares each of common stock from the 2002 stock and bonus plan. The compensation committee will recommend the amount and terms of compensation.

Employment Contracts and Termination of Employment and Change-in-Control Arrangements

We currently do not have any employment contracts or termination of employment and change-in-control arrangements.

Equity Compensation Plan Information

Equity compensation plan information is set forth in Item 5, above.

Item 12. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

VCG did not have independent directors prior to July 2002. Accordingly, the material related party transactions which occurred during the period of May through July 2002 were not reviewed by independent directors for fairness. We believe that the transaction terms to be at least as favorable as obtainable from third parties. There are now a majority of independent directors serving on our Board. All material related party transactions after July 2002 have been ratified by the independent directors. The independent directors will review future material related party transactions for fairness and have access, at our expense, to our legal counsel or to independent legal counsel. Our former officers and directors, Albert Brenman and A. Thomas Tenenbaum, participated in our formation and may, therefore, be deemed our promoters. We did not acquire any assets from either of them.

Acquisition of Nightclubs

In June 2002, VCG formed a wholly-owned subsidiary, Indy Restaurant Concepts, Inc., an Indiana corporation, which acquired the assets and liabilities of PT’s^® Show Club in Indianapolis, Indiana (the “Indianapolis Club”), for 1,590,000 shares of VCG’s common stock valued at $1.00 per share. Affiliates of Mr. Lowrie, our Chairman of the Board, owned one-third of the Indianapolis Club. Based on an independent valuation study that was performed for VCG, VCG believes the transaction was fair and reasonable.

In June 2002, VCG acquired all of the common stock of Tennessee Restaurant Concepts, Inc., a Tennessee corporation which owns PT’s^® Showclub in Memphis, Tennessee (the “Memphis Club”), from Mr. Lowrie and an affiliate of Mr. Lowrie for 604,800 shares of VCG’s common stock valued at $1.00 per share. The seller acquired the Memphis Club in October 2000 for $1.5 million cash. Prior to the acquisition, an independent valuation was performed by Fairfield Management Company LLC to determine the fairness of the price. Based on comparisons with similar clubs, it was determined that the carrying value of goodwill was overvalued by $594,782. Accordingly, the purchase price of the Memphis Club took this factor into account. The seller took a charge for impaired asset before the merger and VCG purchased the shares at book value. We believe the price we paid to be fair and reasonable.

In June 2002, VCG RE acquired the 14,000 square foot building in which the Memphis Club is located, from Tennessee Restaurant Concepts II, Ltd., a limited partnership in which affiliates owned a 30.33 % interest. The remaining 69.67% interest was owned by non-affiliates of VCG. The purchase price consisted of the assumption of the $1,640,000 mortgage on the property and 195,200 shares of VCG’s common stock valued at $1.00 per share. The partnership was dissolved in September 2002. The shares were delivered to the partners: Lowrie Management LLLP (controlled by Troy Lowrie); LTD Investments, LLC (controlled by Michael Ocello); IS Investments, Inc. (controlled by Jay Dinkelman, unaffiliated); Johan A. Van Baal, IRA; and Martin F. Egan. The former partners own the shares in their individual capacities and they are among the selling security holders in this offering. VCG believes the acquisition to be fair and reasonable as the building was purchased approximately two years previously for $40,000 cash plus assumption of $1,820,000 mortgage debt.

In July 2002, VCG RE purchased the building and land on which the Indianapolis Club is located from a third party, Havair Realty whose control person is Ms. Janie Goldberg. The Purchase Agreement for the building and land was originally between the seller and Lowrie Management and was subsequently assigned to VCG RE. The purchase price of $2,550,000 was paid in $1,550,000 cash and a $1,000,000 line of credit secured by a deed of trust. The cash portion of the purchase price was paid from VCG’s cash flow and from drawing down the entire $1,400,000 long-term credit facility provided by Lowrie Management.

VCG may acquire other nightclubs currently affiliated with our management upon the review and approval of a majority of independent directors. All future related party acquisitions will be made or entered into on terms not less favorable than can be obtained from third parties.

Management of VCG is required to present to VCG all nightclub acquisition opportunities of which management is or becomes aware and VCG has rights of priority to any such opportunity.

Personal Guarantees

As part of the purchase of The Platinum Club from a third party, VCG acquired a five-year lease on the 9,000 square foot building and land on which The Platinum Club is located for base rent of $900,000, which is to be paid in monthly installments of $15,000. At the end of the

five-year term, VCG has the option to pay $900,000 as a final installment on the purchase of the building and land. VCG has elected to capitalize this lease under FASB 13. The value of the building and land under the lease is $1,421,628. Mr. Lowrie has personally guaranteed the lease.

Management Contract

In May 2002, we contracted with International Entertainment Consultants, Inc. (“IEC”), a company affiliated with Mr. Lowrie and Michael Ocello, our President, under which IEC is providing us management services at IEC’s cost. The contract is for a one-year initial term and automatically extended for subsequent one-year terms absent cancellation by either party. After July 1, 2002, no management fees will be paid until the fairness of any fees is reviewed by our compensation committee and approved by a majority of independent directors. We believe the IEC management contract to be fair and reasonable.

VCG’s Offices

VCG maintains its offices at 390 Union Boulevard, Suite 540, Lakewood, Colorado 80228. VCG is currently paying monthly rent of approximately $5,700 to a third party.
