REGIS REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2008 RESULTS
— Second Quarter Earnings Meet Low End of Guidance-
MINNEAPOLIS, January 22, 2008 — Regis Corporation (NYSE:RGS), the global leader in the $170 billion hair care industry, today reported financial results for its fiscal second quarter ending December 31, 2007. Net income for the quarter was $22.6 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, which came in at the low end of the Company’s previously issued guidance of $0.51 to $0.57 per diluted share. Second quarter earnings results benefited from an unplanned adjustment to prior years’ workers’ compensation reserves of approximately $0.05 per diluted share, the result of the Company’s continued success with its salon safety programs.
On January 11, 2008, the Company reported revenues for the second quarter ended December 31, 2007 increased four percent to $682 million versus $657 million in second quarter of fiscal 2007. Consolidated same-store sales decreased 0.8 percent for the quarter. Deconsolidation of the beauty schools reduced revenue in the quarter by approximately $17 million. Absent the impact of the school deconsolidation, consolidated revenues for the quarter would have increased 6.5 percent.
“The momentum we have seen in the last nine months around our service business slowed in the quarter. Like many retailers, we had a disappointing holiday shopping season and, as a result, our quarterly same-store sales came in below our expectations,” commented Paul D. Finkelstein, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Today’s casual lifestyle continues to have a lingering impact on fashion and salon visitation patterns. However, ours is a very predictable business and, in our 85 year history, we’ve never experienced an annual same-store sales decrease. We have a great business model and, over time, customer visits will normalize. Until then, we will continue to focus on increasing our average ticket and, more specifically, implementing price increases.”
Mr. Finkelstein continued, “The outlook for the second half of our fiscal year has not changed and we expect our same-store sales to be in the range of 0.5 to 2.5 percent. Our service business is off to a strong start with North American same-store service sales increasing over 3.5 percent in the first 20 days of the quarter and total North American same-store sales increasing over 1.2 percent. However, based on the results of the first two quarters, we now expect our full fiscal year 2008 same-store sales to be in the range of 0.25 to 1.25 percent and related earnings to be in the range of $2.01 to $2.14 per diluted share.”
During the quarter, Regis added a net total of 52 locations. The Company constructed 74 locations and franchisees built an additional 69 units. In addition, Regis acquired 19 corporate
salons (including 18 franchise buybacks). The Company closed or relocated 92 corporate and franchise locations during the quarter.
Third Quarter Fiscal 2008 Outlook
The following outlook pertains to the third quarter ending March 31, 2008, and assumes the previously announced merger of our continental European franchise operations with Franck Provost will close in late January, 2008:
· Consolidated revenue is forecasted to grow three to five percent to a range of $675 million to $685 million compared to $655 million a year ago. (Note: The deconsolidation of beauty schools and the continental European franchise operations reduces revenue growth by approximately five percentage points in the quarter.)
· Consolidated same-store sales are forecasted to be in a range of 0.5 to 2.5 percent.
· The effective income tax rate is expected to be in a range of 34 to 35 percent, which reflects the adoption of FIN 48 and the impact of the deconsolidation of the continental European franchise business.
· Earnings per diluted share are forecasted to be in the range of $0.48 to $0.54, compared to $0.12 a year ago The year ago period included a $0.43 per diluted share non-cash goodwill impairment charge related to the beauty school merger with Empire Education Group. In addition, the year ago period benefited by $0.05 per diluted share from prior year workers’ compensation actuarial adjustments and jobs tax credits.
Fiscal Year 2008 Updated Outlook
The following points pertain to the fiscal year ending June 30, 2008:
· Consolidated revenue is forecasted to grow approximately four percent to $2.74 billion. (Note: The deconsolidation of beauty schools and the continental European franchise operations reduces revenue growth by approximately four percentage points in fiscal 2008.)
· Consolidated same-store sales are forecasted to be in a range of 0.25 to 1.25 percent.
· The effective income tax rate is expected to be in a range of 35 to 36 percent.
· Earnings per diluted share are forecasted to be in a range of $2.01 to $2.14.

North American salon franchise royalties and fees represented 45.7 and 47.7 percent of total franchise revenues in the three months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively, and 47.0 and 48.7 percent of total franchise revenues in the six months ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
(2) Salon same-store sales increases or decreases are calculated on a daily basis as the total change in sales for company-owned salons which were open on a specific day of the week during the current period and the corresponding prior period. Quarterly and year-to-date salon same-store sales increases are the sum of the same-store sales increases computed on a daily basis. Relocated salons are included in same-store sales as they are considered to have been open in the prior period. International same-store sales are calculated in local currencies so that foreign currency fluctuations do not impact the calculation. The Company began including Hair Restoration Centers in its same-store sales calculation beginning with the third fiscal quarter of 2007. Management believes that same-store sales, a component of organic growth, are useful in order to help determine the increase in salon revenues attributable to its organic growth (new salon construction and same-store sales growth) versus growth from acquisitions.
(3) On August 1, 2007, the Company contributed its accredited cosmetology schools to Empire Education Group, Inc. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2007 the results of operations for the month ended July 31, 2007 are reported in the North American salons segment.

REGIS CORPORATION (NYSE: RGS)
PRO FORMA REVENUES (Unaudited)
(In thousands)
The Company’s press release announcing results of operations for the three month period ended December 31, 2007 includes references to the following “non-GAAP financial measure” as defined by Regulation G of the Securities and Exchange Commission:
- pro forma results for the deconsolidation of the 51 wholly owned accredited cosmetology schools (schools) to Empire Education Group, Inc., in exchange for a 49.0 percent minority interest in Empire Education Group, Inc.
On August 1, 2007, the Company contributed the schools to Empire Education Group, Inc., and the results of operations through July 31, 2007 were included in the consolidated statement of operations. The Company retained ownership of its one North America and four United Kingdom Vidal Sassoon schools.
The unaudited pro forma revenues set forth below for the Company give the effect of the deconsolidation of the schools being completed on July 1, 2006 and excludes product sales to Empire Education Group, Inc. Management believes this measurement accurately portrays the true revenue growth of the Company’s core salon and hair restoration businesses between the comparable periods, excluding the impact of deconsolidating the school business. If the Company had completed the agreement and deconsolidated the schools on the dates assumed in the pro forma revenues, the Company might have performed differently. You should not rely on the pro forma financial information as an indication of the revenues that the Company would have achieved, had the deconsolidation of the schools been completed at the dates indicated, or of the future revenues that the Company will achieve after the deconsolidation of the schools.
The pro forma revenues are based on available information and certain assumptions that management believes are reasonable. The unaudited pro forma revenues should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements of the Company.
