Dave & Buster's Tries to Win Back Adults -- Market Talk
Dow Jones2026/09/14 22:461846 ET - Dave & Buster's Entertainment says it has had a decline in groups coming without children. The new executive team is looking to drive demand from adults to visit, without alienating families, Chief Executive Darin Harper says on a call with analysts. Halloween will be an early opportunity for the company since the holiday falls on a Saturday this year and is a high-spending day for consumers. "It creates this unique opportunity for our business to serve family demand earlier in the day and then convert into a differentiated adult occasion at night," Harper says.(katherine.hamilton@wsj.com)
