American Marconi Wireless News - Emerging Growth Research Issues Updated Press Release Announcing Company-Sponsored Research on SBC Medical Group Holdings Incorporated

This release is being issued as an updated version of EGR's previously published press release regarding its Q2:26 Quarterly Update on SBC Medical Group Holdings Incorporated. The updated release is intended to clarify the company-sponsored nature of the research and provide additional disclosure regarding EGR's financial relationship with the Company.

The Q2:26 Quarterly Update reviews SBC's recent financial and operational performance, its continued post-2025 revenue recovery, and the Company's expanding AI-driven operations, global expansion, and Wellness 2.0/Longevity initiatives.

Key Highlights

• Revenue Growth Recovery -- SBC's revenue increased approximately 13% year-over-year in Q2:26 to $49.2 million, reflecting recovery from the 2025 franchising fee reduction and the addition of acquired Waqoo operations, with sequential quarterly revenue growth of approximately 14%.

• Improved Profitability -- Operating profit increased approximately 30% year-over-year in Q2:26, reflecting broad revenue growth and the inclusion of Waqoo operations, while gross profit rose to $36.0 million from $30.0 million in the prior-year period.

• AI-Driven Growth Initiatives -- Management expects increased AI efforts at the clinic level in H2:26 to contribute up to $15 million in additional revenue, supporting a virtuous cycle of customer experience and operational efficiency improvements.

• Global Expansion -- SBC continues to expand internationally, including the acquisition of AHH in Singapore, a partnership with BLEZ ASIA in Thailand, and an equity investment and partnership with Orange Twist in the United States, alongside continued clinic growth in Japan, where the Company now operates 287 clinics.

• Strong Balance Sheet -- SBC ended Q2:26 with $185 million in cash on the balance sheet against just $38 million in total debt, representing a Debt/Book Equity ratio of 14%.

• Improving Trading Liquidity -- SBC has taken steps to increase free float and trading liquidity, including becoming a Russell 3000 company and partially reducing its founder's concentrated ownership position.
