Revenue Up 35%, Net Income Attributable to SBC Medical Up 22%, and Adjusted EBITDA1 Up 66% Year-over-Year; Net Income Margin of 27% and Adjusted EBITDA Margin of 47% — Previously Announced Service Fee Revisions and New Clinic Openings Contribute to Revenue Growth and Operating Margin Improvement

Irvine, Calif.--(ANTARA/Business Wire)--SBC Medical Group Holdings Incorporated (Nasdaq: SBC) (“SBC Medical” or the “Company”), a Medical Services Organization (MSO) providing management support across a wide range of healthcare fields to medical institutions in Japan and abroad, today announced its consolidated financial results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2026 (the three months ended September 30, 2026) and the three cumulative quarters of fiscal year 2026 (the nine months ended September 30, 2026).

Third Quarter 2026 Financial Highlights

  • Total revenues were $59 million, up 35% year-over-year.
  • Income from operations was $26 million, up 66% year-over-year, with an operating margin of 45%.
  • Net income attributable to SBC Medical was $16 million, up 22% year-over-year. Net income margin was 27%, a decrease of 3 percentage points year-over-year.
  • Adjusted EBITDA1 was $28 million, up 66% year-over-year. Adjusted EBITDA margin1 expanded 9 percentage points year-over-year to 47%.
  • Basic earnings per share (EPS) was $0.15, up 25% year-over-year.
  • Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $50 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2026.

Third-quarter results reflected both growth and improved profitability in the core MSO business. Revenue growth was driven by higher management services revenue, including the impact of service fee structure revisions announced in August, as well as the consolidation of Waqoo.

The medical corporations supported by SBC Medical continued to expand. As of September 30, 2026, the clinic network had increased by 36 locations year-over-year to 293 locations2. Patient visits3 over the trailing twelve months totaled 7.06 million, up 9% year-over-year. Average spend per visit was $290, up 4% year-over-year.

Comment from SBC Medical’s Chairman and CEO Yoshiyuki Aikawa:

“The third quarter of 2026 marked a strong reacceleration in SBC Medical’s growth. Revenue increased 35% year-over-year, income from operations rose 66%, and net income attributable to SBC Medical rose 22%, with a net income margin of 27% and an Adjusted EBITDA1 margin of 47%. Following the structural reforms implemented in 2025, growth and profitability are improving in tandem, demonstrating the strength of our highly profitable MSO model.

Our MSO revenue growth is supported by two key levers: expanding our clinic network and increasing service fees per clinic. Our goal is not simply to add locations. We aim to raise productivity and profitability at the clinics we support while expanding the network efficiently. This quarter’s growth in management services revenue, including the effect of service fee revisions, demonstrates progress in this model.

To strengthen this model further, we are investing in AI and technology. Specifically, we are developing a proprietary local large language model (LLM) infrastructure designed to enable the secure use of medical data while optimizing AI costs, while also advancing our clinic operating systems through our capital and business alliance with Atomic Software. Together, these initiatives are intended to improve profitability at existing clinics and make new clinic openings more efficient, enabling our scalable MSO platform to generate greater earnings power as the business expands.

Our Longevity business, which we view as our next growth opportunity, is also making tangible progress. As a first step, we are developing an in-house DNA methylation-based test to estimate biological age, drawing on the Waqoo Group’s research and technology capabilities. By adding diagnostics to our existing medical network and combining AI with physicians’ expertise, we aim to build an integrated platform spanning testing, personalized treatment and evaluation of outcomes.

In Japan, we will continue expanding our multi-brand presence in aesthetic dermatology and broadening our non-aesthetic medical services. Internationally, we are pursuing collaboration with OrangeTwist in the United States and expansion across ASEAN markets. These initiatives are designed to unlock further growth in our existing business while pursuing opportunities in new markets.

For the first nine months of 2026, net cash provided by operating activities totaled $50 million. As of September 30, 2026, we held $198 million in cash and cash equivalents and $154 million in Net Cash4. We intend to deploy this strong financial position toward disciplined growth investment, with the goal of sustaining EPS growth over the medium- to long-term and enhancing corporate value.”

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company uses non-GAAP measures, such as Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA margin and Net Cash, in evaluating its operating results and financial position and for financial and operational decision-making purposes. The Company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in its business, provide useful information about the Company’s results of operations, enhance the overall understanding of the Company’s past performance and future prospects, and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by the Company’s management in its financial and operational decision-making. In particular, the Company believes Net Cash is useful to investors in evaluating the Company’s liquidity and financial position, including its capacity to fund growth investments.

The non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The presentations of these measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, the presentations of these measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and can differ significantly from company to company. For reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, see the reconciliations included at the end of this press release and, for Net Cash, footnote 4 to the “Summary of Key Financials.”
