About REGIS CORP
Source: Item 1 (Business) from the 10-K filed September 1, 2026. Description as filed by the company with the SEC.
Item 1. Business
General:
Regis Corporation franchises and owns hair care salons. The Company is listed on the Nasdaq Global Market under the ticker symbol "RGS." Unless the context otherwise provides, when we refer to the "Company," "we," "our," or "us," we are referring to Regis Corporation, the Registrant, together with its subsidiaries.
As of June 30, 2026, the Company franchised or owned 3,712 locations, primarily in North America. The Company's locations consist of 3,448 franchised salons and 264 company-owned salons. Each of the Company's salon concepts generally offers similar salon products and hair services.
The major services supplied by the salons are haircutting and styling (including shampooing and conditioning) and hair coloring. Salons also sell a variety of hair care and other beauty products. We earn royalty revenue based on service and product sales at our franchise locations and earn revenue for services and products sold at our company-owned salons. Salons operate primarily under the trade names of Supercuts, SmartStyle, Cost Cutters, First Choice Haircutters and Roosters, and they generally serve the value category within the industry. Salons are primarily located in convenient locations, including strip centers and Walmart Supercenters.
The Company reports its operations in two operating segments: franchise and company-owned. Service revenues comprise approximately 95% of total company-owned salon revenues.
Financial information about our segments and geographic areas for fiscal years 2026, 2025, and 2024 are included in Note 15 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8, of this Form 10-K.

Industry Overview:
The hair salon market represents a significant and highly fragmented industry, encompassing a vast number of operators and generating considerable annual revenue, with the majority of locations being independently owned and operated. The Company faces competition from chains, such as Great Clips, Fantastic Sams, Sport Clips and Ulta Beauty, independently owned salons, in-home hair services, booth rentals, and blow dry bars. The Company also faces competition from other franchise organizations outside of the hair salon industry in attracting new franchisees.
At the individual salon level, barriers to entry are low; however, barriers exist for chains to expand nationally due to the need to lease quality sites, recruit franchisees, establish systems and infrastructure to support franchisees, the ability to recruit and retain stylists, and hire multi-unit and experienced field and salon management. The principal factors of competition in the hair care category are the ability to attract, retain, and train quality stylists, provide consistent and exceptional guest experiences, have the right technology tools, and win on convenience and price value. The Company continually strives to improve its performance in each of these areas and to create additional points of brand differentiation versus the competition.
General. We provide our franchisees and company-owned salons with a comprehensive system of business performance coaching, stylist training and education, site approval, professional marketing, promotion, and advertising programs, loyalty and CRM programs, technology tools, and other forms of ongoing support designed to help franchisees build successful businesses. Historically, we signed the salon lease and then subleased the space to our franchisees.
In December 2024, the Company acquired Super C Group, LLC, doing business as Alline Salon Group (Alline), bringing a portfolio of 314 salons, of which 261 remain in operation as of June 30, 2026, across the Supercuts, Cost Cutters, and Holiday Hair brands under Regis Corporation (the Alline Acquisition). Although the Company's main focus remains being a franchisor and maintaining an asset-light model, which includes supporting and driving franchisee sales and profitability, this transaction was a strategic move that provides a company-owned environment to test, learn and refine initiatives before broader franchise rollout. Our intent is to make the company-owned salon business best in class by proving out operational excellence and piloting programs, including enhanced loyalty and marketing capabilities supported by new technology, that can be tested and refined at our Company-owned salons, and, once successful, scaled across the franchise system.
Standards of Operations. The Company does not control the day-to-day operations of its franchisees, including employment, benefits and wage determination, prices charged for products and services, business hours, personnel management, and capital expenditure decisions. However, the franchise agreements afford certain rights to the Company, such as the right to approve locations, suppliers, and the sale of a franchise. Additionally, franchisees are required to conform to the Company's established operational policies and procedures relating to consistent brand standards, quality of service, training, salon design, and decor and trademark usage. The Company's field personnel utilize dashboards with key performance indicators and make periodic visits to franchised salons to ensure they are operating in conformity with the standards for each franchising program. The Company also retains a third party to ensure adherence to brand standards for Supercuts. In contrast to franchised locations, the Company's 264 company-owned salons, operating primarily under the Supercuts, Cost Cutters, and Holiday Hair brands, are directly operated by the Company. In these locations, the Company exercises full control over day-to-day operations, including employment decisions, scheduling, compensation, and operational standards. The company-owned salon portfolio also serves as a testing ground for brand and operational initiatives that, once proven successful, can be scaled across the broader franchise system. All the rights afforded to the Company with regard to franchised operations allow the Company to protect its brands, but do not allow the Company to control day-to-day franchise operations or make decisions that have a significant impact on the success of the franchised salons. The Company's franchise agreements do not give the Company any right, ability or potential to determine or otherwise influence any terms and/or conditions of employment of franchisees' employees (except for those, if any, that are specifically related to quality of service, training, salon design, decor and trademark usage), including, but not limited to, franchisees' employees' wages and benefits, hours of work, scheduling, leave programs, seniority rights, promotional or transfer opportunities, layoff/recall arrangements, grievance and dispute resolution procedures, and/or discipline and discharge.
Franchise Terms. Pursuant to a franchise agreement with the Company, each franchisee pays an initial fee for each salon and ongoing royalties to the Company. In addition, for most brands, the Company collects advertising funds from franchisees and administers the funds on behalf of the brands. Franchisees are responsible for the costs of leasehold improvements, furniture, fixtures, equipment, supplies, inventory, payroll costs, and certain other items, including initial working capital. The majority of franchise agreements provide the Company a right of first refusal if the store is to be sold, and the franchisee must obtain the Company's approval in all instances where there is a sale of a franchise location.
Additional information regarding each of the major franchised brands is listed below:
Supercuts
Supercuts franchise agreements have a perpetual term, subject to termination of the underlying lease agreement or termination of the franchise agreement by either the Company or the franchisee. All new franchisees enter into development agreements, which give them the right to enter into a defined number of franchise agreements. The majority of these franchise agreements are site-specific because the site of the franchised location is known at the time of execution. Otherwise, the location in the franchise agreement is identified as to-be-determined, and the franchise agreement is amended to identify a specific site once determined. The development agreement provides limited territorial protection for the stores developed under those franchise agreements. Older franchisees have grandfathered expansion rights, which allow them to develop stores outside of development agreements and provide them with greater territorial protections in their markets. The Company has a comprehensive impact policy that resolves potential conflicts among Supercuts franchisees and/or the Company's Supercuts locations regarding proposed store sites.
SmartStyle and Cost Cutters in Walmart Supercenters
SmartStyle locations, more than 900 in total, operate within Walmart Supercenters, as do a number of Cost Cutters salons. The majority of existing SmartStyle and Cost Cutters franchise agreements for salons located in Walmart Supercenters have a five-year term with a two or five-year option to renew. The franchise agreements are site specific.
Cost Cutters (not located in Walmart Supercenters), First Choice Haircutters, Magicuts and Roosters Men’s Grooming Center (Portfolio Brands)
The majority of existing Cost Cutters franchise agreements have a 15-year term with a 15-year option to renew (at the option of the franchisee), while the majority of First Choice Haircutters franchise agreements have a 10-year term with a five-year option to renew. The majority of Magicuts franchise agreements have a term equal to the greater of five years or the current initial term of the lease agreement with an option to renew for two additional five-year periods. The current franchise agreement is site specific. Franchisees may enter into development agreements with the Company, which provide limited territorial protection. Roosters franchise agreements have a 10-year term with a 10-year option to renew (at the option of the franchisee). New franchisees enter into a franchise agreement concurrently with the opening of their first store, along with a development agreement with the right to open two additional locations.
Franchisee Training. The Company provides new franchisees with training, focusing on the various aspects of salon management, including operations, management training, marketing fundamentals, and controls. Existing franchisees receive training, coaching, and information from the Company on a regular basis. The Company provides franchise salon managers and stylists with access to technical training resources.
Guests. Among other factors, consistent delivery of an exceptional guest experience, haircut quality, convenience, competitive pricing, salon location, inviting salon appearance and atmosphere, comprehensive retail assortments, and engagement through technology all drive guest traffic and improve guest retention.
Guest Experience. Our portfolio of salon concepts enables our guests to select different service scheduling options based upon their preference. We believe the ability to serve walk-in appointments and minimize guest wait times are essential elements in delivering an efficient guest experience. Our mobile applications and online check-in or scheduling capabilities allow us to capitalize on our guests' desire for convenience by allowing for future check-ins with optional stylist selection, and offering predicted wait times for guests who wish to walk in. Our franchisees continue to focus on stylist staffing and retention, optimizing schedules, balancing variable labor hours with guest traffic, and managing guest wait times. Our franchise salons are located in high-traffic strip centers and Walmart Supercenters with guest parking and easy access to offer guests a variety of convenient ways to fulfill their beauty needs.
Stylists. Our Company depends on the stylists in our system to help deliver great guest experiences. Stylists are licensed cosmetologists who receive additional training and development at Regis, which provides differentiation from independent salons. We believe in the importance of the ongoing development of stylists' craft. We aim to be an industry leader in stylist training, including the utilization of both live and digital training. We believe stylists deliver a superior experience for guests when they are well-trained technically and through years of experience. We employ trainers who provide new hire training for stylists joining the Company and train franchisee trainers. We supplement internal training with targeted vendor training and external trainers that bring specialized expertise to stylists in our system. We utilize training materials to help all levels of field employees navigate the operation of a salon and essential elements of guest service training within the context of brand positions.
Affordability. The Company strives to offer exceptional value for its services. In the value category, our guests expect outstanding service at competitive prices. These expectations are met with the average service price of transactions ranging from $27 to $39. Pricing decisions are considered on a salon-level basis and are established based on local conditions. Our franchisees control pricing at their locations.
Retail Assortments. Salons sell nationally recognized hair care and beauty products. The top selling brands within the Company’s retail assortment include: L'Oreal Professional Brands and John Paul Mitchell. Stylists are regularly trained to sell hair care and beauty products to their guests and may be compensated via bonus plans for retail sales. Additionally, guests are encouraged to purchase products after stylists demonstrate their efficacy by using them in the styling process in order to improve the health of the guests' hair.
Marketing. Our marketing is brand specific and funded primarily from contractual contributions, based on sales, to the brand's cooperative advertising funds. These funds are used largely in support of advertising and other efforts to increase guest awareness, relevance, and affinity for our brands, driving traffic, retention and share of visits to our salons. A portion of our marketing funds are used in support of stylist recruitment and training to attract quality stylists to our brands.
Technology. In fiscal year 2022, we sold our proprietary back-office salon management system, Opensalon® Pro, to a third party, Soham Inc. (Zenoti). See Note 3 to the Consolidated Financial Statements in Part II, Item 8, of this Form 10-K. As of August 2024, all our salons transitioned to the Zenoti salon technology platform. We also use mobile applications to allow guests to view wait times and interact in other ways with salons.
Salon Support. Our corporate headquarters is referred to as Salon Support or the Support Center. We take a service-oriented mentality to best support our franchisees and oversee our company-owned locations. Salon Support and our associated priorities are aligned with our brands to enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of the service we provide. Salon Support is located in Minneapolis, Minnesota, while allowing for hybrid and remote work.

Families First
Over one hundred years ago, the Company began as a family business, and its support of families continues today. It offers up to 16 weeks of parental leave, including adoption, up to 12 of which are paid, so that parents have time to focus on their newest family members. It also offers flexible work arrangements, including full-time telecommuting. Additionally, the Company offers flexible paid time off, which allows employees to control their time away from work based on individual needs, not years of service.
Other Compensation and Benefits
The Company also takes care of its people by offering competitive compensation and benefits packages that are designed to support the total well-being and promote the full potential of our employees and their families. These include short- and long-term incentive packages, an employee stock purchase plan, retirement plans, health, dental, and vision benefits, basic life insurance, long-term disability coverage, and wellness and employee assistance programs. The Company analyzes market trends and monitors its own compensation practices to attract, retain, and promote employees and reduce turnover and associated costs. In addition, its short- and long-term incentive plans are aligned with its core values and key business objectives, which are intended to motivate strong performance.
Corporate Responsibility
The Company will not do business with organizations that employ or condone unfair labor practices. Instead, it partners with companies who share the Company's commitment to ethical business conduct and fair labor practices. The Company also specifically condemns human trafficking and abuse of child labor.
Governmental Regulations:
The Company is subject to various federal, state, local and provincial laws affecting its business, as well as a variety of regulatory provisions relating to the conduct of its beauty-related business, including health and safety. We monitor state and local regulations carefully to ensure the safety of our stylists and guests.
In the United States, the Company's franchise operations are subject to the Federal Trade Commission's Trade Regulation Rule on Franchising (the FTC Rule) and to state laws and administrative regulations that regulate various aspects of franchise operations and sales. The Company's franchises are offered to franchisees by means of a disclosure document containing specified disclosures in accordance with the FTC Rule and the laws and regulations of certain states. The Company has registered its offering of franchises with the regulatory authorities of those states in which it offers franchises and where registration is required. State laws that regulate the franchisee/franchisor relationship presently exist in a substantial number of states and, in certain cases, apply substantive standards to this relationship. Such laws may, for example, require that the franchisor deal with the franchisee in good faith, prohibit interference with the right of free association among franchisees, and limit termination of franchisees without payment of reasonable compensation. Governmental regulation of franchises has varied over time based on changes in administration and other factors. However, such laws have not had, and the Company does not expect such laws to have, a significant effect on the Company's operations.
In Canada, the Company's franchise operations are subject to franchise laws and regulations in the provinces of Ontario, Alberta, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island and British Columbia. The offering of franchises in Canada occurs by way of a disclosure document, which contains certain disclosures required by the applicable provincial laws. The provincial franchise laws and regulations primarily focus on disclosure requirements, although each requires certain relationship requirements, such as a duty of fair dealing and the right of franchisees to associate and organize with other franchisees.
The Company believes it is operating in substantial compliance with applicable laws and regulations governing all its operations.
