SBC Medical Group reports Q2 EPS 2c vs. 20c last year

Reports Q2 revenue $43.36M vs. $53.1M last year. Yoshiyuki Aikawa, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of SBC Medical, said, ” As anticipated and signaled in our prior guidance, Q2 2025 reflected strategic shifts aimed to position SBC Medical for long-term competitiveness and scalability. Total revenue declined 18% year-over-year to $43 million, primarily due to the completed discontinuation of our staffing business, targeted divestitures to streamline our operations, and revision of fee structure. We are executing our strategic plan with precision, as evidenced by our network of 259 Franchise Locations as of June 30, 2025 and 6.31 million visits over the last twelve months, demonstrating a scale that is unmatched in Japan. Our high repeat rate underscores the strength of our Shonan Beauty Clinic brand. Japan’s consumer discretionary market faces challenges, including restrained growth due to trade restrictions and cautious consumer spending. Despite these headwinds, we are successfully advancing key initiatives, including the acquisition of MB career lounge to enhance our management support services and the joining of JUN CLINIC to our network, which boasts a high average spend per customer. Looking ahead, we remain confident in our strategic roadmap, focused on optimizing our franchise model, capturing growth opportunities, transitioning to higher-margin models, and delivering lasting value to our shareholders.”
