Business Details
A haircut specialty service business operating three brands—QB HOUSE, QB PREMIUM, and FaSS—domestically through directly-managed stores and franchise (FC) formats. Operations combine four formats: directly-managed/directly-operated, directly-managed/outsourced, FC/directly-operated, and FC/outsourced. This core segment accounts for approximately 80% of the group's revenue and provides uniform, low-priced haircut services. Following the February 2025 price revision and the expansion of the "Tsuki-Ichi Campaign" to all age groups, customer visit numbers have remained above the level of the same period of the prior year.
Recent Overview
Customer visits exceeded the prior-year level on price revision and campaign expansion, achieving higher revenue and profit
For the cumulative nine months of FY2026 (ending March 2026) (July 2025 to March 2026), revenue was ¥16,001 million (up 5.6% year on year), and segment profit was ¥996 million (up 3.5% year on year). Personnel recruitment progressed steadily, and store openings proceeded as planned. Assignment of trained personnel to stores following the training period also exceeded plan. The February 2025 price revision and the expansion of the "Tsuki-Ichi Campaign" discount program to all age groups proved effective, and customer visit numbers have remained above the level of the same period of the prior year.
Key Products
Growth Drivers
- Increase in average customer spending due to the price revision implemented in February 2025
- Increase in customer visits from expanding the "Tsuki-Ichi Campaign" to all age groups
- Aggressive new store openings supported by steady progress in personnel recruitment (FY2026 (ending March 2026) plan: 770 consolidated stores including domestic)
- App development through DX investment (membership registration, store search, and cut history/chart functions) and improved store operational efficiency
- Promotion of personnel and DX investment and expansion of total seat capacity under the medium-term management plan "NEXUS"
Risks
- Rising personnel and recruitment costs due to stylist shortages, squeezing profits
- Increased cost burden from rising raw material prices and energy costs
- Risk of lower utilization rates due to delayed store assignment timing of trained personnel following the training period
- Fluctuations in customer visit numbers due to external factors such as weather
- Impact of continued price inflation on personal consumption and risk of reduced visit frequency
