NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Business Overview

SBC Medical Group Holdings Incorporated 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, “Legacy SBC”), through its consolidated subsidiaries and, prior to its deconsolidation in June 2026, its variable interest entity (“VIE”), is principally engaged in the medical industry and provides 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 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 Legacy SBC (the “Merger Agreement”), whereby Merger Sub merged with and into Legacy SBC, the separate corporate existence of Merger Sub ceased and Legacy SBC survived the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Pono (the “Merger”). The Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are collectively referred to as the “Business Combination.” In connection with the closing of the Business Combination, Pono changed its name to “SBC Medical Group Holdings Incorporated” and Legacy SBC changed its name to “SBC Medical Group, Inc.” and the existing equity holders of Legacy SBC exchanged their equity interests of Legacy SBC for equity interests of Pono.

On September 17, 2024, in connection with the closing of the Business Combination, the Company received net cash of $11,707,417. The Company also assumed $416,799 in prepaid expenses and other current assets, $1,108 in accounts payable, $14,431 in income tax payable, $2,700,000 in convertible note payable, which was subsequently converted to 270,000 shares upon the closing of the Business Combination, $1,000,789 in accrued liabilities and other current liabilities, common stock of $508 and additional paid-in capital of $8,407,380.

The total net cash proceeds from the Business Combination of $11,707,417 were available to repay certain indebtedness, transaction costs and for general corporate purposes, which primarily consisted of investment banking, legal, accounting, and other professional fees as follows:

 

Cash—Pono working capital cash

16,731,409

 

Less: transaction costs and advisory fees

 

 

5,790,727

 

Net proceeds from Pono Merger

11,707,417

 

 

The Business Combination was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization under the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”). Legacy SBC 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 Legacy SBC.

Unless the context indicates otherwise, any references herein to the “Company”, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to 1) Legacy SBC and its consolidated subsidiaries and VIE, prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, and to 2) SBC Medical Group Holdings Incorporated (formerly Pono Capital Two, Inc.) and its consolidated subsidiaries and VIE, following the Business Combination. Reference herein to “Pono” refers to Pono Capital Two, Inc. prior to the consummation of the Business Combination.

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 100% equity interest of L’Ange Cosmetique Co., Ltd. (“L’Ange Sub”), a company incorporated in Japan in June 2003, and Shobikai Co., Ltd. (“Shobikai Sub”), a company incorporated in Japan in June 2014, through share exchange. As a result, L’Ange Sub and Shobikai Sub became wholly owned subsidiaries of SBC Japan.

NOTE 1 — ORGANIZATION AND DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS (cont.)

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. ceased 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, Legacy SBC acquired 100% equity interest of SBC Japan through share exchange with one share of its common stock. As a result, SBC Japan became a wholly owned subsidiary of Legacy SBC.

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 unaudited consolidated financial statements.
