Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report contains forward-looking statements regarding, among other things, the plans, strategies and prospects, both business and financial, of the Company. These statements are based on the beliefs and assumptions of the management of the Company. Although the Company believes that its plans, intentions and expectations reflected in or suggested by these forward-looking statements are reasonable, the Company cannot assure you that it will achieve or realize these plans, intentions or expectations.
Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Generally, statements that are not historical facts, including statements concerning possible or assumed future actions, business strategies, events or results of operations, are forward-looking statements. These statements may be preceded by, followed by or include the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “possible,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “would” or similar expressions, but the absence of these words does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report include, but are not limited to, statements about:
| ● | future financial performance of the Company; | |
| ● | changes in the market and level of demand for our products and services; | |
| ● | the expansion plans and opportunities of the Company; | |
| ● | the ability of the Company to access additional capital; | |
| ● | the ability of the Company to maintain the listing of the Company’s common stock on Nasdaq; | |
| ● | public securities’ potential liquidity and trading; | |

| ● | expectations regarding future expenditures of the Company; | |
| ● | the future mix of revenue and effect on gross margins of the Company; | |
| ● | the attraction and retention of qualified directors, officers, employees and key personnel of the Company; | |
| ● | the ability to protect and enhance the Company’s corporate reputation and brand; | |
| ● | expectations concerning the relationships and actions of the Company and its affiliates with third parties; | |
| ● | the impact from future regulatory, judicial, and legislative changes in the Company’s industry; | |
| ● | the ability to locate and acquire complementary products or product candidates and integrate those into the Company’s business; | |
| ● | future arrangements with, or investments in, other entities or associations; | |
| ● | intense competition and competitive pressures from other companies in the industries in which the Company operates; | |
| ● | the possibility that the Company may be adversely affected by other economic, business, and/or competitive factors; and | |
| ● | other factors detailed under “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” of the Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC by the Company on March 28, 2025 (the “Annual Report”). |
These forward-looking statements are based on information available as of the date of this Quarterly Report, and current expectations, forecasts and assumptions, and involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Accordingly, forward-looking statements should not be relied upon as representing our views as of any subsequent date, and we do not undertake any obligation to update forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date they were made, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required under applicable securities laws. These statements are inherently uncertain and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely upon these statements. All forward-looking statements attributable to the Company or persons acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements.
New risk factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible to predict all such risk factors, nor can the Company assess the impact of all such risk factors on the business of the Company, or the extent to which any factor or combination of factors may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. As a result of a number of known and unknown risks and uncertainties, the actual results or performance of the Company may be materially different from those expressed or implied by these forward-looking statements. These and other factors that could cause actual results to differ from those implied by the forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report are more fully described elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and the Annual Report, particularly in “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” of the Annual Report.

SBC MEDICAL GROUP HOLDINGS INCORPORATED
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
Business Overview
SBC Medical Group Holdings Incorporated (“SBC Holding”) was originally incorporated under the laws of the state of Delaware on March 11, 2022 as a special purpose acquisition corporation under the name Pono Capital Two, Inc. (“Pono”) for the purpose of entering into a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses.
SBC Medical Group, Inc. (formerly known as SBC Medical Group Holdings Incorporated, “SBC USA”, “Legacy SBC”), through its consolidated subsidiaries and variable interest entity (“VIE”), is principally engaged in medical industry to provide comprehensive management services to the medical corporations and their clinics, including but not limited to licensure of the use of the trademark and brand name of “Shonan Beauty Clinic”, sales of medical equipment, medical consumables procurement services, and management of customer’s loyalty program, etc.
Reverse Recapitalization
On September 17, 2024, Pono consummated the merger transaction pursuant to the agreement by and among Pono, Pono Two Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”) and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pono, and SBC USA (the “Merger Agreement”), whereby Merger Sub merged with and into SBC USA, the separate corporation existence of Merger Sub ceased and SBC USA survived the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Pono (“Pono Merger”). In connection with the consummation of Pono Merger, Pono changed its name to “SBC Medical Group Holdings Incorporated” and SBC USA changed its name to “SBC Medical Group, Inc.” and, among other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the existing equity holders of SBC USA exchanged their equity interests of SBC USA for equity interests of Pono.
On
September 17, 2024, the Company received net cash of $
The
total funds from Pono Merger of $
| Cash—Pono working capital cash | $ | |||
| Cash—Pono trust | ||||
| Less: transaction costs and advisory fees | ||||
| Net proceeds from Pono Merger | $ |
Pono Merger was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization under the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). SBC USA was determined to be the accounting acquirer and Pono was treated as the acquired company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, the financial statements of the combined company represent a continuation of the financial statements of SBC USA.
Unless the context indicates otherwise, any references herein to the “Company”, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to 1) SBC USA and its consolidated subsidiaries and VIE, prior to the consummation of Pono Merger, and to 2) SBC Holding and its consolidated subsidiaries and VIE, following Pono Merger; and reference herein to “Pono” refers to SBC Holding prior to the consummation of Pono Merger.
Reorganization
In June 2020 and April 2022, SBC Inc., a company incorporated in Japan in June 2007, and Advice Innovation Co., Ltd., a company incorporated in Japan in December 2018, were merged with and into SBC Medical Group Co., Ltd. (“SBC Japan”), respectively, with SBC Japan being the surviving entity in such mergers. SBC Japan is a company incorporated in Japan in September 2017 and previously known as Aikawa Medical Management Co., Ltd.
In
April 2023, SBC Japan acquired
In August 2023, SBC Japan and L’Ange Sub disposed of their entire equity interest in Ai Inc. and Lange Inc., respectively, both incorporated in the Federated States of Micronesia in January 2022, for cash. As a result, Ai Inc. and Lange Inc. cease to be subsidiaries of the Company, with the related investment in capital being treated as a deemed distribution and the disposal proceeds treated as a deemed contribution.
In
September 2023, SBC USA acquired
The above reorganization has been accounted for as a recapitalization among entities under common control since the same controlling shareholder controlled these entities before and after the reorganization. The consolidation of the Company has been accounted for at historical cost and prepared on the basis as if the transactions had become effective as of the beginning of the earliest period presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
Corporate Structure
As of June 30, 2025, the Company’s major subsidiaries and VIE are as follows:

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
(a) Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
The unaudited consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information and disclosure required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full year. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of a normal recurring nature considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and the results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods have been included. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2024.
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the financial statements of the Company, its subsidiaries, and consolidated VIE for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. The results of the subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which the Company obtained control and continue to be consolidated until the date that such control ceases. All significant transactions and balances among the Company’s subsidiaries, including the VIE, have been eliminated upon consolidation.
The Company reports AHH and its subsidiaries, which were acquired in November 2024, on a three-month calendar lag allowing for the timely preparation of financial statements. This three-month reporting lag is with the exception of significant transactions or events that occur during the intervening period, if any.
Variable Interest Entities
In accordance with ASC Topic 810, “Consolidation”, the Company identifies its variable interests and analyzes to determine if the entity in which the Company has a variable interest is a VIE. Determination if a variable interest is a VIE includes both quantitative and qualitative consideration. For those entities determined to be VIEs within the scope of the VIE model, a further quantitative and qualitative analysis is performed to determine if the Company is deemed the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary is the party who has the power to direct the activities of a VIE that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and who has an obligation to absorb losses of the entity or a right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant.

MEDICAL GROUP HOLDINGS INCORPORATED
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)
The Company would consolidate those entities in which it is determined to be the primary beneficiary. The Company based its qualitative analysis on its review of the design of the entity, its organizational structure including decision-making ability and the relevant development, operating management and financial agreements.
The Company evaluates its relationship with its VIE on an ongoing basis to determine whether it continues to be the primary beneficiary of its consolidated VIE, or whether it has become the primary beneficiary of the VIE it does not consolidate.
Voting Model
If a legal entity fails to meet any of the three characteristics of a VIE, we then evaluate such entity under the voting model. Under the voting model, we consolidate the entity if we determine that we, directly or indirectly, have greater than 50% of the voting rights and that other equity holders do not have substantive participating rights.
Assessment of Medical Corporations in Japan
SBC Japan is designated as a medical service corporation (the “MSC”) to provide services to the Medical Corporations (the “MCs”) in Japan. To maintain and strengthen the business relationship, the Company has acquired equity interests in the following MCs throughout the years.
| Name of the MC | Percentage of Equity Interest Acquired | Percentage of Voting Interest Held | ||||||
| Medical Corporation Shobikai | % | % | ||||||
| Medical Corporation Kowakai | % | % | ||||||
| Medical Corporation Nasukai | % | % | ||||||
| Medical Corporation Aikeikai | % | % | ||||||
| Medical Corporation Jukeikai | % | % | ||||||

As non-profit organizations, MCs are required to comply with the medical-related laws and regulations of the Japanese Medical Care Act (the “Act”, “Medical Care Act”). In accordance with the Act, the highest authority of MCs is its general meeting of members (the “Members”), with each Member having one voting right. The Company, through the MSCs, has no right to elect the Members, no decision-making ability and no right to dividend or any profit distribution, but has the right to receive distribution of the residual assets of the MCs.
Since the not-for-profit entities scope exception to the variable interest model is applicable to the MCs, the Company evaluates its business relationship, franchisor-franchisee agreements and/or services agreements with the MCs in Japan under the voting model. The Company has concluded that consolidation of the MCs is not appropriate for the periods presented as it does not have a majority voting interest in the Members of the MCs nor does it have a controlling financial interest in the MCs. The equity interests in the MCs held by the Company are recorded as long-term investments in MCs — related parties on the unaudited consolidated balance sheets. The transactions between the Company and the MCs are disclosed in Note 17 — Related Party Transactions.
(b) Foreign Currency
The Company maintains its books and record in its local currency, mainly Japanese YEN (“JPY” or “¥”), which is a functional currency as being the primary currency of the economic environment in which its operation is conducted. Transactions denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rates prevailing at the dates of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the functional currency are translated into the functional currency using the applicable exchange rates at the balance sheet dates. The resulting exchange differences are recorded in the unaudited statements of operations.

(c) Use of Estimates
In preparing the unaudited consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, management is required to make certain 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 the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. These estimates are based on information available as of the date of the unaudited consolidated financial statements. Significant estimates required to be made by management include, but are not limited to, useful lives and impairment of long-lived assets, impairment of goodwill, impairment of long-term investments in MCs — related parties, valuation allowance of deferred tax assets, uncertain income tax positions, the recognition and measurement of impairment of investments in securities, allowance for credit losses and implicit interest rate of operating and finance leases. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and other assumptions it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances and evaluates these estimates on an on-going basis. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(d) Customer Loans Receivable, and Notes and Other Payables — Related Parties
In February 2023, the Company started to provide loan services to certain customers of the related-party MCs (“End Customers”). Once a loan is granted to finance an End Customer’s purchase, the End Customer is required to repay the Company in monthly installments. The loans provided to the End Customers are unsecured, interest-bearing, and due in three months to five years, depending on the End Customers’ choice of the loan service term.
The
Company records the customer loans receivables at gross loan receivables less unamortized costs of issuance fees or discounts, which
are amortized over the life of the loan to interest income. The Company generated interest income of $
Management
periodically evaluates individual End Customer’s financial condition, credit history and the current economic conditions to make
adjustments in the allowance when necessary. Customer loans receivable is charged off against the allowance after all means of collection
have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. During the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company
recorded $
Prior to January 2025, when a loan was granted to an End Customer, the Company issued a promissory note to the related party MC to settle the purchase transaction on behalf of the End Customer. The Company repays each promissory note when the corresponding loan is fully repaid by the End Customer or earlier if mutually agreed. These promissory notes are unsecured and bear no interest. Starting in January 2025, instead of issuing a promissory note to the MC upon loan issuance, the Company pays the transaction amount directly in cash to the MC on behalf of the End Customer in the month following the purchase.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)
(e) Cryptocurrencies
Cryptocurrencies are included in non-current assets in the unaudited consolidated balance sheets because the Company holds them for long-term investment purposes.
Effective January 1, 2025, the Company adopted ASU No. 2023-08, Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets (“ASU 2023-08”) using a modified retrospective approach, which requires cryptocurrency assets to be measured at fair value each reporting period with changes in fair value recorded in net income or loss. The adoption of ASU 2023-08 did not have impact on the Company’s prior years’ consolidated financial statements as the Company did not hold cryptocurrencies prior to the adoption.
The Company purchases Bitcoins through Coinbase, Inc., a cryptocurrency exchange, which are initially recorded at cost and subsequently measured at fair value in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company determines the fair value of its cryptocurrency in accordance with ASC 820, Fair Value Measurement, based on quoted prices on active exchange(s) that are identified as the principal market(s) for such assets (Level I inputs). The cost basis of cryptocurrencies is determined using the average cost method. The change in fair value of cryptocurrencies is recorded in “Other income (expenses)” as a non-operating item in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations. Purchases and sales of cryptocurrencies, if any, are included within investing activities in the accompanying consolidated statements of cash flows.
(f) Goodwill, Net
Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the identifiable assets and liabilities acquired in the business combination. In accordance with FASB ASC Topic 350, “Intangibles-Goodwill and Others”, goodwill is subject to at least an annual assessment for impairment or more frequently if events or changes in circumstances indicate that an impairment may exist, applying a fair-value based test.
The Company would recognize an impairment charge for the amount by which the carrying amount of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value up to the amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.
When performing the annual impairment test, the Company has the option of performing a qualitative or quantitative assessment to determine if an impairment has occurred. If a qualitative assessment indicates that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the Company would be required to perform a quantitative impairment analysis for goodwill. The quantitative analysis requires a comparison of the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value, including goodwill. If the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to that excess, limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The fair value is generally determined using the income approach with the discounted cash flow valuation method, which requires management to make significant estimates and assumptions related to forecasted revenues and cash flows and the discount rates.
(g) Impairment of Long-lived Assets Other Than Goodwill
Long-lived assets with finite lives, primarily property and equipment, intangible assets, operating lease right-of-use assets and finance lease right-of-use assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If the estimated cash flows from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition are below the asset’s carrying value, then the asset is deemed to be impaired and written down to its fair value.
(h) Long-term Investments, Net
Investments in equity securities with readily determinable fair values
The Company holds investments in equity securities of publicly listed companies, for which the Company does not have significant influence. Investments in equity securities with readily determinable fair values are measured at fair value and any changes in fair value are recognized in other income (expenses).

Investments in privately held companies and organizations that do not report Net Asset Value (the “NAV”) per share
The Company’s long-term investments in privately held entities that do not report NAV per share are accounted for using a measurement alternative, under which these investments are measured at cost, adjusted for observable price changes and impairments, with changes recognized in other income (expenses).
The Company recognizes both realized and unrealized gain and losses in its unaudited consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income, classified with other income (expenses). Unrealized gains and losses represent observable price changes for investments in privately held entities that do not report NAV per share. Realized gains and losses represent the difference between proceeds received upon disposition of investments and their historical or adjusted cost. Impairments are realized losses, which result in an adjusted cost, and represent charges to reduce the carrying values of investments in privately held entities that do not report NAV per share, if impairments are deemed other than temporary, to their estimated fair values.
(i) Long-term Investments in MCs — Related Parties
Long-term investments in MCs — related parties represent the payments to obtain equity interests of the MCs in Japan, made by the Company through SBC Japan, a company designated as a MSC in Japan. In accordance with the Act and articles of incorporation of the MCs, which are non-profit organizations, the equity interest holders of MCs are prohibited from receiving any profit distribution from MCs but have the right to receive distribution of the residual assets of the MCs in proportion to the amount of their contribution. As of the balance sheet dates, the investments represent probable future economic benefit to be realized at the time of dissolution of MCs or the equity interests being sold.
The investments in MCs — related parties are accounted for using a measurement alternative, under which these investments are measured at cost, less impairment, and adjusted for observable price changes. The Company reviews the investments in MCs for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount may not be recoverable. The payments made for such investments are classified as investing activities in the unaudited consolidated statements of cash flows. The MCs are considered related parties as the relatives of the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) of the Company being the Members of the MCs. Also see Note 2(a) for further details.
(j) Leases
The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception or modification of the arrangement. An arrangement is or contains a lease if there are identified assets and the right to control the use of an identified asset is conveyed for a period in exchange for consideration. Control over the use of the identified assets means the lessee has both the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from the use of the asset and the right to direct the use of the asset.
The Company classifies its leases as either finance leases or operating leases if it is the lessee, or sales-type, direct financing, or operating leases if it is the lessor. The following criteria is used to determine if a lease is a finance lease (as a lessee) or sales-type or direct financing lease (as a lessor):
| (i) | ownership is transferred from lessor to lessee by the end of the lease term; | |
| (ii) | an option to purchase is reasonably certain to be exercised; | |
| (iii) | the lease term is for the major part of the underlying asset’s remaining economic life; | |
| (iv) | the present value of lease payments equals or exceeds substantially all of the fair value of the underlying assets; or | |
| (v) | the underlying asset is specialized and is expected to have no alternative use at the end of the lease term. |
| F-13 |
SBC
MEDICAL GROUP HOLDINGS INCORPORATED
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)
If any of the above criteria is met, the Company accounts for the lease as a finance, a sales-type, or a direct financing lease. If none of the criteria is met, the Company accounts for the lease as an operating lease.
Lessee accounting
The Company recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities for all leases other than those with a term of twelve months or less as the Company has elected to apply the short-term lease recognition exemption. Right-of-use assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term. Lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are classified and recognized at the commencement date of a lease. Lease liabilities are measured based on the present value of fixed lease payments over the lease term. Right-of-use assets consist of (i) initial measurement of the lease liability; (ii) lease payments made to the lessor at or before the commencement date less any lease incentives received; and (iii) initial direct costs incurred by the Company.
As the rates implicit on the Company’s leases for which it is the lessee are not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on information available at the commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. When determining the incremental borrowing rate, the Company assesses multiple variables such as lease term, collateral, economic conditions, and its creditworthiness.
From time to time, we may enter into sublease agreements with third parties. Our subleases generally do not relieve us of our primary obligations under the corresponding head lease. As a result, we account for the head lease based on the original assessment at lease inception. We determine if the sublease arrangement is either a sales-type, direct financing, or operating lease at inception of the sublease. If the total remaining lease cost on the head lease for the term of the sublease is greater than the anticipated sublease income, the right-of-use asset is assessed for impairment. Our subleases are generally operating leases and we recognize sublease income on a straight-line basis over the sublease term.
Lessor accounting — operating leases
The Company accounts for the revenue from its lease contracts by utilizing the single component accounting policy. This policy requires the Company to account for, by class of underlying asset, the lease component and nonlease component(s) associated with each lease as a single component if two criteria are met.
| (i) | the timing and pattern of transfer of the lease component and the nonlease component(s) are the same; and | |
| (ii) | the lease component would be classified as an operating lease if it were accounted for separately. |
Lease components consist primarily of fixed rental payments, which represent scheduled rental amounts due under our leases. Nonlease components consist primarily of tenant recoveries representing reimbursements of rental operating expenses, including recoveries for utilities, repairs and maintenance and common area expenses.
If the lease component is the predominant component, we account for all revenues under such lease as a single component in accordance with the lease accounting standard. Conversely, if the nonlease component is the predominant component, all revenues under such lease are accounted for in accordance with the revenue recognition accounting standard. Our operating leases qualify for the single component accounting, and the lease component in each of our leases is predominant. Therefore, we account for all revenues from our operating leases under the lease accounting standard and classify these revenues as rental income.
The Company commences recognition of rental income related to the operating leases at the date the property is ready for its intended use by the tenant and the tenant takes possession or controls the physical use of the leased asset. Income from rentals related to fixed rental payments under operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the respective operating lease terms. Any amounts received but will be recognized as revenue in future periods are classified as advances from customers in the Company’s unaudited consolidated balance sheets.

Lessor accounting — sales-type leases
The Company purchases medical equipment from vendors and leases them to its customers, who are required to pay installments throughout the term of the leases. The lease agreements include lease payments that are fixed, do not contain residual value guarantees or variable lease payments. The lease terms are based on the non-cancellable term of the lease and the buyer may have options to terminate the lease in advance when meets certain conditions. The customers obtain control of the medical equipment when they physically possess the equipment.
The Company recognizes sales from sales-type leases equal to the present value of the minimum lease payments discounted using the implicit interest rate in the lease and cost of sales equal to carrying amount of the asset being leased and any initial direct costs incurred, less the present value of the unguaranteed residual. Interest income from the leases is recognized over the lease terms and included in revenues, net.
The Company excludes from the measurement of its lease revenues any tax assessed by a governmental authority that is both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction and collected from a customer.
(k) Revenue Recognition
The Company recognizes revenue from franchising services, procurement services, management services and other services or product sales under ASC Topic 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers”.
To determine revenue recognition for contracts with customers, the Company performs the following five steps: (i) identify the contract(s) with the customer, (ii) identify the performance obligations in the contract, (iii) determine the transaction price, including variable consideration to the extent that it is probable that a significant future reversal will not occur, (iv) allocate the transaction price to the respective performance obligations in the contract, and (v) recognize revenue when (or as) the Company satisfies the performance obligation. Revenue amount represents the invoiced value, net of consumption tax and applicable local government levies, if any. The consumption tax on sales is calculated at 10% of gross sales. The Company does not have significant remaining unfulfilled performance obligations or contract balances.
The Company reports revenue on a gross or net basis based on management’s assessment of whether the Company acts as a principal or agent in the transaction. The determination of whether the Company acts as a principal or an agent in a transaction is based on the evaluation of whether (i) the Company is primarily responsible for fulfilling the promise to provide the specified goods or service, (ii) the Company has inventory risk before the specified good or service has been transferred to a customer or after transfer of control to the customer and (iii) the Company has discretion in establishing the price for the specified good or service. If the terms of a transaction do not indicate the Company is acting as a principal in the transaction, then the Company is acting as an agent in the transaction and the associated revenues are recognized on a net basis.
The Company recognizes revenue from rental services under ASC Topic 842, “Leases”.
The Company currently generates its revenue from the following main sources:
Franchising Revenue
The Company generates franchising revenue by licensing its intellectual properties, including but not limited to the Company’s brand name (“Shonan Beauty Clinic”), trade name, patents, and trademarks, and by providing consulting services to enhance the value of “Shonan Beauty Clinic” brand, as a franchisor pursuant to franchise agreements with the medical corporations (the “MCs”) in Japan. Prior to April 2025, revenue was based on a fixed amount to each MC and a fixed amount to each clinic of the MCs; starting from April 2025, rather than charging the same flat fee for all MCs/clinics, the monthly service fee to each MC and to each clinic of the MCs is determined by the facility type, operational tenure, operational performance of each clinic of the MCs. The revenue is recognized over time as services are rendered.

NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)
Procurement Revenue
The Company generates procurement services revenue by purchasing primarily advertising services and medical materials from qualified vendors on behalf of MCs to maintain brand quality consistency. Procurement services revenue is recognized at the point in time upon the delivery of products or over time as services are performed. Occasionally, the Company receives vendor discounts on certain large purchases. It recognizes revenue based on actual payments and will return the over-collection resulting from such discounts to MCs.
Management Services Revenue
The Company provides loyalty program management services, labor supporting services, function supporting services, and management consulting services to MCs.
Loyalty program management services
The Company awards loyalty points on behalf of MCs to MCs’ customers, who earn loyalty points from each qualified purchase made at the loyalty program participating clinics of MCs, in exchange for a handling fee. The revenue is based on a percentage of the related payment amount made by MCs’ customers and is recognized when the loyalty points are awarded.
At the time loyalty points are awarded, a MC pays the Company cash in an amount equivalent to the awarded loyalty points, which is recorded as advances from customers. When a MC’s customers redeem the loyalty points, the Company returns the cash back to the MC in an amount equivalent to the redeemed loyalty points. The awarded loyalty points expire if a MC’s customer does not make any additional qualified purchase at a participating clinic within a year. The Company accumulates and tracks the points on behalf of MCs until the loyalty points expire at which time the Company recognizes an amount equivalent to the expired loyalty points as revenue, which is normally not significant.
The Company also awards certain points to MCs’ customers on behalf of MCs for free in order to increase the volume of MC’s sales, from which the Company earns other types of revenues, such as royalty income. When a MC’s customers redeem such points, the Company reimburses MC in an amount equivalent to the used free points and records it as a reduction of the revenue recognized.
The Company is an agent in the management of loyalty programs, and as a result, revenues are recognized net of the cost of redemptions.
Labor supporting services
The Company generates revenue by dispatching staff to MCs to provide a range of services, primarily including IT, and administrative services. The Company recognizes the revenue over the time when services are rendered.
Function supporting services
The revenue is derived from providing functional supporting services to MCs, such as accounting and human resources, and IT management services. The Company recognizes revenue based on a monthly service fee over the time when services are rendered. Since April 2025, the amount of the monthly fee for each clinic is determined using the same key criteria described above under “Franchising Revenue.”
Management consulting services
The Company generates revenue by providing consulting services to MCs in relation to business operations of cosmetic dermatology. The Company recognizes the revenue over the time when services are rendered.

Rental Services Revenue
The Company generates rental income from operating leases and sales-type leases, which is accounted for under ASC Topic 842. Operating lease revenue is generally recognized on straight-line basis over the terms of the lease agreements and sales-type leases revenue is generally recognized on the lease commitment date. Also see Note 2(j).
Other Revenues
The Company generates other miscellaneous revenues such as medicine dispensed sales revenue, brokerage services revenue, construction services revenue, interest income, beauty and health services revenue, etc. These revenues are recognized when the Company satisfies performance obligations.

(m) Segment Reporting
ASC Topic 280, “Segment Reporting,” requires use of the “management approach” model for segment reporting. The management approach model is based on the way a company’s chief operating decision maker organizes segments within the company for making operating decisions assessing performance and allocating resources. Reportable segments are based on products and services, geography, legal structure, management structure, or any other manner in which management disaggregates a company.
Management determined the Company’s operations constitute a single reporting segment.
(n) Related Parties and Transactions
The Company identifies related parties, and accounts for, discloses related party transactions in accordance with ASC Topic 850, “Related Party Disclosures,” and other relevant ASC standards.
Parties, which can be an entity or individual, are considered to be related if they have the ability, directly or indirectly, to control the Company or exercise significant influence over the Company in making financial and operational decisions. Entities are also considered to be related if they are subject to common control or common significant influence.

Transactions involving related parties cannot be presumed to be carried out on an arm’s-length basis, as the requisite conditions of competitive, free market dealings may not exist. Representations about transactions with related parties, if made, shall not imply that the related party transactions were consummated on terms equivalent to those that prevail in arm’s-length transactions unless such representations can be substantiated.
(o) Fair Value Measurements
The Company performs fair value measurements in accordance with ASC Topic 820. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC Topic 820 establishes a fair value hierarchy that requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. An asset’s or a liability’s categorization within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. ASC Topic 820 establishes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
| ● | Level 1: quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; |
| ● | Level 2: inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly; or |
| ● | Level 3: unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair values of the assets or liabilities. |
As of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the carrying values of current assets and current liabilities approximated their fair values reported in the unaudited consolidated balance sheets due to the short-term maturities of these instruments. Debt that bears variable interest rates index to prime also approximates fair value as it reprices when market interest rates change.

(p) Stock-Based Compensation
The Company accounts for stock-based compensation awards in accordance with ASC Topic 718, “Compensation — Stock Compensation”, under which the Company determines whether stock-based compensation awards should be classified and accounted for as an equity award. There were no liability awards granted during any of the periods stated herein. For all grants of stock-based compensation classified as equity awards, the cost of services received from employees and non-employees in exchange for awards is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income based on the estimated fair value of those awards on the grant date and amortized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period or vesting period. The Company records forfeitures and cancellations as they occur.
(q) Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-08, Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Crypto Assets (Subtopic 350-60): Accounting for and Disclosure of Crypto Assets, which requires entities that hold crypto assets to subsequently measure such assets at fair value with changes recognized in net income each reporting period. This accounting update also improves the information provided to investors about an entity’s crypto asset holdings by requiring disclosure about significant holdings, contractual sale restrictions, and changes during the reporting period. ASU 2023-08 is effective for all entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company adopted ASU 2023-08 on January 1, 2025. See Note 2(e) and Note 7 for relevant cryptocurrency disclosures.
In December 2023, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2023-09, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvement to Income Tax Disclosures” to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures, primarily related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid information. ASU 2023-09 is effective for public business entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, and for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025 for all other entities, on a prospective basis. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard update on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
NOTE 3 — VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY
A VIE is defined as a legal entity whose equity owners do not have sufficient equity at risk, or, as a group, the holders of the equity investment at risk lack any of the following three characteristics: decision-making rights, the obligation to absorb losses, or the right to receive the expected residual returns of the entity. The primary beneficiary is identified as the variable interest holder that has both the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly affect the entity’s economic performance and the obligation to absorb expected losses or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the VIE.
The Company followed ASC Topic 810, “Consolidation”, utilizing a qualitative approach, and determined that it is the primary beneficiary of its VIE, Aikawa Medical Management, Inc. (“AMM”) and consolidated the result of operations, financial conditions, and cash flows of AMM in the consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 18 — SEGMENT REPORTING
The Company’s chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), Chief Executive Officer, reviews consolidated results of operations to make decisions, therefore the Company views its operations and manages its business as a single operating segment. The Company’s revenues for its single operating segment are substantially all derived from providing comprehensive management services to MCs and their clinics.
The accounting policies for the single operating segment are the same as those described in Note 2. The CODM evaluates performance for the Company’s single operating segment and decides how to allocate resources based on the Company’s consolidated net income that is reported in the unaudited consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income as net income. The measure of segment assets is reported in the unaudited consolidated balance sheets as total assets.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
The following discussion and analysis summarize the significant factors affecting our operating results, financial condition, liquidity, and cash flows for the periods presented below, which should be read in conjunction with the unaudited consolidated financial statements and related notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Quarterly Report”). The forward-looking statements contained herein are based on management’s judgment, assumptions made by management and information currently available to it. Actual results could differ materially from those discussed or implied in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including those described elsewhere in this Quarterly Report and the Annual Report, particularly in “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” of the Annual Report and the section entitled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” herein.
Unless the context otherwise requires, any reference in this section of this Quarterly Report to the “Company,” “SBC,” “we,” “us” or “our” refers to Legacy SBC (defined below) and its consolidated subsidiaries and variable interest entity (“VIE”), prior to the consummation of the Business Combination and to SBC Medical Group Holdings Incorporated and its consolidated subsidiaries and VIE, following the Business Combination.
Overview
SBC Medical Group, Inc. (formerly known as SBC Medical Group Holdings Incorporated), a Delaware corporation and subsidiary of the Company (“Legacy SBC”) is a management company headquartered in Irvine, California and Tokyo, Japan, that provides management services to cosmetic treatment centers mainly in Japan.
On September 17, 2024, Legacy SBC consummated its going-public business combination with Pono Capital Two, Inc. (“Business Combination”). In connection with the closing of the Business Combination, Pono Capital Two, Inc. changed its name to SBC Medical Group Holdings Incorporated and the Company’s common stock began trading on Nasdaq under the ticker symbol “SBC”.
The Company and its subsidiaries are primarily focused on providing comprehensive management services to franchisee clinics, including but not limited to advertising and marketing needs across various platforms (such as social media networks), staff management (such as recruitment and training), booking reservations for franchisee clinic customers, assistance with franchisee employee housing rentals and facility rentals, construction and design of franchisee clinics, medical equipment and medical consumables procurement (resale), the provision of cosmetic products to franchisee clinics for resale to clinic customers, licensure of the use of patent-pending and non-patented medical technologies, trademark and brand use, IT software solutions (including but not limited to remote medical consultations), management of the franchisee clinic’s customer rewards program (customer loyalty point program), and payment tools for the franchisee clinics.
Our wholly owned subsidiary, SBC Medical Group Co., Ltd., a Japan corporation (“SBC Medical Sub”, or “SBC Japan”) is designated as a “medical service corporation” in Japan. In Japan, a medical service corporation is a legal entity that provides management service to “medical corporations”. The management services are conducted through franchisor-franchisee contracts and/or service contracts between SBC Medical Sub and the medical corporations that own all 252 of the treatment centers in Japan as of June 30, 2025. These clinics provide include but are not limited to breast augmentation, liposuction, rejuvenation treatments (including treatment of wrinkles, acne, scars, cellulite, excess fat, discoloration, and signs of aging), laser skin toning and spot removal, eyes double fold surgery, rhinoplasty, treatment of osmidrosis and hyperhidrosis, hair transplants, gynecological formation treatments, laser hair removal, face line surgeries, cosmetical dental procedures, tattoo removal, lasik eye surgery, lateral canthoplasty, brow lift procedures, androgenetic alopecia treatment, and cheek sagging prevention methods. In addition, similar management services are provided to five independently operated clinics.
The Company’s subsidiaries have entered into franchisor-franchisee contracts and service contracts with six medical corporations, consisting of Medical Corporation Shobikai, Medical Corporation Kowakai, Medical Corporation Nasukai, Medical Corporation Aikeikai, Medical Corporation Jukeikai and Medical Corporation Ritz Cosmetic Surgery. In addition, the Company has entered into service contracts since September 2023 with two additional medical corporations, Medical Corporation Association Furinkai and Medical Corporation Association Junikai (collectively with the six franchisee medical corporations, the “Medical Corporations” or “MCs”). All of the Medical Corporations are deemed to be related parties of the Company since relatives of the CEO of the Company are the members* of general meetings of members** of the Medical Corporations. The CEO of the Company was previously a member* of the six franchisee Medical Corporations until he ceased being a member* in July 2023. The Company, through SBC Medical Sub, owns equity interests*** of the Medical Corporations (except Medical Corporation Association Furinkai and Medical Corporation Association Junikai). Although the Company, through SBC Medical Sub, has an equity interest*** to the rights to receive a distribution of residual assets in proportion to the amount of contribution in certain circumstances as provided in the Japanese Medical Care Act and in the articles of incorporation (except Medical Corporation Association Furinkai and Medical Corporation Association Junikai), the Company or SBC Medical Sub does not have voting control over the corporate actions at general meetings of members** of the Medical Corporations per the requirements of the Japanese Medical Care Act.
* “Members (or shain) of general meeting of members (or shain)” means one of the organs of a Japanese Medical Corporation, and element of general meeting of members (as explained below) of the Medical Corporation. Each member (or shain) of general meeting of members (or shain) has one voting right.
** “General meeting of members (or shain)” means one of the organs of a Japanese Medical Corporation, and the highest decision-making body of the Medical Corporation, of which the main duties include the election and dismissal of directors (or riji) and corporate auditors (or kanji) of the Medical Corporation, and the approval of financial statements and statutory business reports of the Medical Corporation.
*** “Equity interest (or mochibun)” means the right to receive distribution of the residual assets of a Japanese Medical Corporation in proportion to the amount of contribution (Article 10.3.3.2 brackets of the Supplementary Provision of the Japanese Medical Care Act.). However, the procedures for an equity interest (or mochibun) holder to exercise and realize the right to receive distribution of the residual assets of the Medical Corporation is more complicated than that of a stock corporation due to the restrictions under the Medical Care Act.

Japanese Yen (“JPY”) against the U.S. dollar appreciated during the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the three months June 30, 2024. The spot rate against the dollar was 144.1650 yen on June 30, 2025 compared to 160.8680 yen on June 30, 2024 and the average rate against the dollar was 144.0297 yen for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to 156.0476 yen for the same period in 2024. For the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we generated net revenues of $43,358,847 (JPY6,245 million) and $53,102,080 (JPY8,286 million), respectively, we reported net income of $2,439,852 (JPY310 million) and $18,557,325 (JPY2,894 million), respectively. Overall, the favorable impacts of the period-to-period foreign exchange rate changes on net revenues and net income were $1,058,367 and $59,556, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2025.
The main reasons for the variance of $9,743,233 in revenues, net per revenue stream are as follows:
Franchising Revenue
Franchising revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2025, decreased to $10,007,581 by $4,618,675, or 31.58%, from $14,626,256 for the same period in 2024. This decrease was mainly due to the revision of the fee structure for determining service fees for each clinic of MCs based on the size, scale and performance of each clinic effective as of April 1, 2025, partially offset by the appreciation of JPY.
Procurement Revenue
The procurement revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2025 increased to $15,756,519 by $2,219,911, or 16.40%, from $13,536,608 for the same period in 2024. This increase was mainly due to the orders from MCs for the new types of medical materials, as well as the appreciation of JPY.
Management Services Revenue
The management services revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2025 decreased to $5,138,578 by $11,567,019, or 69.24%, from $16,705,597 for the same period in 2024. This decrease was mainly due to (i) the discontinuation of clinic operation staff supporting services that had been provided by Shobikai Sub to MCs since the third quarter of 2024, because the Company completed the merger of Shobikai Sub with and into Lange Sub and the related business license, held by Shobikai Sub, became invalid upon the merger in January 2025, (ii) the decrease in the revenue in connection with customer rewards program offered to customers of the franchisee clinics and (iii) the revision of the fee structure for determining service fees for each clinic of MCs based on the size, scale and performance of each clinic effective as of April 1, 2025, partially offset by the appreciation of JPY.
Rental Services Revenue
The rental services revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2025 increased to $6,851,176 by $3,398,003, or 98.40%, from $3,453,173 for the same period in 2024. This increase was mainly due to the opening of new clinics resulting in the increased demand for medical equipment from new clinics and replacing laser hair removal equipment from existing clinics as well as the appreciation of JPY.
Others
The other revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2025 increased to $5,604,993 by $824,547, or 17.25%, from $4,780,446 for the same period in 2024. This increase was mainly due to revenues from Aesthetic Healthcare Holdings Pte. Ltd. and its subsidiaries, which were acquired in November 2024, offset by the disposal of its subsidiaries, Kijimadairakanko Inc. and Skynet Academy Co., Ltd. in December 2024.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $13,348,270 compared to $13,682,405 for the same period in 2024. The decrease was mainly due to the Company’s effort of the cost reduction, as well as the discontinuation of clinic operation supporting services provided by Shobikai Sub to MCs since the third quarter of 2024, and the Company then terminated the employment of the related staff. The decrease was partially offset by higher purchase costs resulting from replacing laser hair removal equipment from MCs.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $30,010,577 compared to $39,419,675 for the same period in 2024. The decrease in gross profit by $9,409,098 or 23.87% was mainly due to the decrease in franchising revenue and management services revenue with relatively high gross margin as a result of the factors described above.

In particular, the other income was $33,771 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $306,291 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, mainly due to the decrease in the foreign exchange gain. The other expense was $1,132,465 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $514,636 for the three months ended June 30, 2024, mainly due to the increase in the foreign exchange losses arising from intercompany loan balances between the Company and its subsidiary. Change in fair value of cryptocurrencies was $111,632 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to nil for the three months ended June 30, 2024, due to the Company purchased cryptocurrencies in the three months ended June 30, 2025 resulting in the fair value change of the cryptocurrencies during the current period.

Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was $11,100,509 compared to $8,529,110 for the same period in 2024. The increase in income tax expense by $2,571,399 or 30.15% was mainly due to the increase of deferred tax expenses recognized and the appreciation of JPY.
The effective tax rate was 81.98% and 31.49% for the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase of 50.49 percentage points was mainly due to the deemed contribution in connection with the price modification on disposal of an aircraft to General Incorporated Association SBC, an entity controlled by the CEO of the Company, who is also the controlling shareholder of the Company, which was treated as a taxable gain under the Japanese tax law for the three months ended June 30, 2025.
Net Income
As a result of the foregoing, we reported a net income of $2,439,852 for the three months ended June 30, 2025, representing a decrease of $16,117,473 or 86.85% from $18,557,325 for the three months ended June 30, 2024.

Japanese Yen (“JPY”) against the U.S. dollar appreciated during the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to the six months June 30, 2024. The spot rate against the dollar was 144.1650 yen on June 30, 2025 compared to 160.8680 yen on June 30, 2024 and the average rate against the dollar was 148.4720 yen for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to 152.1868 yen for the same period in 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, we generated net revenues of $90,687,548 (JPY13,465 million) and $107,910,122 (JPY16,422 million), respectively, we reported net income of $23,931,802 (JPY3,562 million) and $37,307,541 (JPY5,678 million), respectively. Overall, the favorable impacts of the period-to-period foreign exchange rate changes on net revenues and net income were $2,213,636 and $526,004, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
The main reasons for the variance of $17,222,574 in revenues, net per revenue stream are as follows:
Franchising Revenue
Franchising revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2025 decreased to $25,726,863 by $4,009,661, or 13.48%, from $29,736,524 for the same period in 2024. This decrease was mainly due to the revision of the fee structure for determining service fees for each clinic of MCs based on the size, scale and performance of each clinic effective as of April 1, 2025, partially offset by the appreciation of JPY.
Procurement Revenue
The procurement revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2025 increased to $30,089,302 by $3,356,710, or 12.56%, from $26,732,592 for the same period in 2024. This increase was mainly due to the orders from MCs for the new types of medical materials, as well as the appreciation of JPY.
Management Services Revenue
The management services revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2025 decreased to $13,866,681 by $18,493,586, or 57.15%, from $32,360,267 for the same period in 2024. This decrease was mainly due to (i) the discontinuation of clinic operation staff supporting services that had been provided by Shobikai Sub to MCs since the third quarter of 2024, because the Company completed the merger of Shobikai Sub with and into Lange Sub and the related business license that was held by Shobikai Sub became invalid upon the completion of the merger in January 2025, (ii) the decrease in the revenue in connection with customer rewards program offered to customers of the franchisee clinics and (iii) the revision of the fee structure for determining service fees for each clinic of MCs based on the size, scale and performance of each clinic effective as of April 1, 2025, partially offset by the appreciation of JPY.
Rental Services Revenue
The rental services revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2025 increased to $12,491,690 by $5,420,576, or 76.66%, from $7,071,114 for the same period in 2024. This increase was mainly due to opening of new clinics resulting in the increased demand for medical equipment from new clinics and replacing laser hair removal equipment from existing clinics as well as the appreciation of JPY.
Others
The other revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2025 decreased to $8,513,012 by $3,496,613, or 29.12%, from $12,009,625 for the same period in 2024. This decrease was mainly due to the disposal of its subsidiaries, Kijimadairakanko Inc. and Skynet Academy Co., Ltd., in December 2024, offset by revenues from Aesthetic Healthcare Holdings Pte. Ltd. and its subsidiaries, which were acquired in November 2024.
Cost of Revenues
Cost of revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $22,943,887 compared to $28,971,072 for the same period in 2024. The decrease was mainly due to the Company’s effort of the cost reduction, as well as the discontinuation of clinic operation supporting services provided by Shobikai Sub to MCs since the third quarter of 2024, and the Company then terminated the employment of the related staff. As a result, cost of revenues decreased overall, despite a partial offset from higher purchase costs resulting from replacing laser hair removal equipment from MCs.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $67,743,661 compared to $78,939,050 for the same period in 2024. The decrease in gross profit by $11,195,389 or 14.18% was mainly due to the decrease in franchising revenue and management services revenue with relatively high gross margin as a result of the factors described above.

The increase was mainly due to the increase in office, utility and other expenses, and consulting and professional service fees, partially offset by the decrease in salaries and welfare.
Consulting and professional service fees increased by $1,967,242, or 37.77%, to $7,176,118 for the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $5,208,876 for the same period in 2024, mainly due to the increase in legal, tax, and market research expenses associated with the Company’s listing.

The increase in other income (expense) by $3,698,312 or 145.76% was mainly due to a gain on redemption of life insurance policies of $8,746,138 in 2025, and the absence in 2025 of a gain on disposal of subsidiary of $3,813,609 recognized in 2024. In addition, the other income was $185,099 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $655,972 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, mainly due to the decrease in the foreign exchange gains. The other expense was $2,829,724 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to $1,951,292 for the six months ended June 30, 2024, mainly due to the increase in the foreign exchange losses arising from intercompany loan balances between the Company and its subsidiary. Change in fair value of cryptocurrencies was $111,632 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, as compared to nil for the six months ended June 30, 2024, due to the Company purchased cryptocurrencies in the six months ended June 30, 2025, which resulted in the fair value change of the cryptocurrencies during the current period.

Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2025 was $21,059,966 compared to $16,981,094 for the same period in 2024. The increase in income tax expense by $4,078,872 or 24.02% was mainly due to the increase of deferred tax expenses recognized and the appreciation of JPY.
The effective tax rate was 46.81% and 31.28% for the six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The increase of 15.53 percentage points was mainly due to the deemed contribution in connection with the price modification on disposal of an aircraft to General Incorporated Association SBC, an entity controlled by the CEO of the Company, who is also the controlling shareholder of the Company, which was treated as a taxable gain under the Japanese tax law for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Net Income
As a result of the foregoing, we reported a net income of $23,931,802 for the six months ended June 30, 2025, representing a decrease of $13,375,739 or 35.85% from $37,307,541 for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Non-controlling Interests

Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2025, the Company had $152,740,882 in cash and cash equivalents compared to $125,044,092 as of December 31, 2024. In addition, the Company had $51,271,211 in accounts receivable as of June 30, 2025 compared to $30,260,113 as of December 31, 2024. The Company’s accounts receivable includes balances due from customers for the services and goods provided by the Company and accepted by customers.
As of June 30, 2025, the Company’s working capital balance was $180,660,427. In assessing liquidity, management monitors and analyzes the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, ability to generate sufficient future earnings, and operating and capital investment commitments. The Company believes that its current cash and cash equivalents from operations and borrowings from banks will be sufficient to meet its working capital needs for the next 12 months from the date of issuance of the unaudited financial statements included in this Quarterly Report.
To the extent additional funds are necessary to meet our long-term liquidity needs as we continue to execute our business strategy, we anticipate that they will be obtained through the incurrence of indebtedness, equity financings or a combination of these potential sources of funds. While we face uncertainties regarding the size and timing of our fundraising, which will be affected by general economic, financial, and other factors that may be beyond our control, we believe that we will be able to continue to meet our current business needs through the use of cash flows generated from operations and stockholder working capital, as needed.
The Company evaluates its capital allocation practices with the objective of enhancing shareholder value, while considering performance, the business environment, macroeconomic conditions and other relevant factors. The Company expects to deploy capital for investment opportunities that align with its growth strategy, selectively pursuing prospects in the expanding global medical aesthetics market.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements (Off-Balance Sheet Transactions)
There are no off-balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024.
Foreign Exchange Rate Risk
We are exposed to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations because our business is primarily conducted in Japan and most of our revenues and costs are denominated in Japanese yen, whereas our reporting currency is U.S. dollar. The weakening of the Japanese yen against the U.S. dollar would have a negative impact on our financial results and vice versa.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
We prepare our consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP, which requires us to make judgments, estimates and assumptions. We continually evaluate these estimates and assumptions based on the most recently available information, our own historical experiences and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances. Since the use of estimates is an integral component of the financial reporting process, actual results could differ from our expectations as a result of changes in our estimates.
We believe that there have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates from those disclosed in “Part II, Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on March 28, 2025.
Emerging Growth Company
We are an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act, and we will take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.
Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. We have elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, we, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard.
Smaller Reporting Company
Additionally, we are a “smaller reporting company,” as defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K. Smaller reporting companies may take advantage of certain reduced disclosure obligations, including, among other things, providing only two years of audited financial statements. We will remain a smaller reporting company until the last day of the fiscal year in which (i) the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $250 million as of the last business day of our second fiscal quarter, or (ii) our annual revenue exceeded $100 million during such completed fiscal year and the market value of our common stock held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our second fiscal quarter. If we continue to be a smaller reporting company at the time we cease to be an emerging growth company, we may continue to rely on exemptions from these certain reduced disclosure requirements that are available to smaller reporting companies.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are a smaller reporting company as defined by Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act and are not required to provide the information otherwise required under this item.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on this evaluation, management concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of June 30, 2025 to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted by us under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure due to identification of material weaknesses.
Despite the identified material weaknesses, we believe that our unaudited consolidated financial statements and other information contained in this Quarterly Report fairly present, in all material respects, our financial condition, and results of operations for the periods presented.
We remain committed to ongoing improvements in our disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting, including execution of the remediation plan disclosed under “Part II, Item 9A. Controls and Procedures” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on March 28, 2025. The material weaknesses previously identified in the Annual Report remained un-remediated as of June 30, 2025.
Inherent Limitation on the Effectiveness of Internal Control
The effectiveness of any system of internal control over financial reporting is subject to inherent limitations. These include the exercise of judgment in designing, implementing, and operating controls, as well as the inherent inability to completely eliminate the risk of misconduct or error. Accordingly, while we aim to establish robust controls, any system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving the desired control objectives.
Additionally, the design of our disclosure controls and procedures is impacted by resource constraints and the necessity for management to balance the benefits of potential controls against their associated costs. Moreover, projections of effectiveness into future periods are subject to risks that controls may become inadequate over time due to evolving conditions or diminished compliance. We will continue to monitor and enhance our internal control as necessary or appropriate, but we cannot provide assurance that these improvements will fully eliminate all risks of material misstatement.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Other than the remediation efforts described above, there have been no material changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rule 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the three months ended June 30, 2025, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We may be subject to legal proceedings, investigations and claims incidental to the conduct of our business from time to time. We are not currently a party to any material litigation or other legal proceedings brought against us. We are also not aware of any legal proceeding, investigation or claim, or other legal exposure that has a more than remote possibility of having a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS
Investing in our securities involves a high degree of risk. These risks are more fully described under “Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors” of the Annual Report in addition to the information in this Quarterly Report. There have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in the Annual Report. Any of these factors could result in a material adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition.
Additional risk factors not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business or results of operations. If any such risks materialize, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and growth prospects and cause the trading price of our securities to decline. We may disclose changes to such risk factors or disclose additional risk factors from time to time in our future filings with the SEC.
