For Immediate Release

REGIS REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER 2010 EARNINGS

MINNEAPOLIS, August 26, 2010 — Regis Corporation (NYSE:RGS), the global leader in the $150 billion to $170 billion hair care industry, today reported fourth quarter earnings per diluted share of $0.30.  As expected, fourth quarter reported earnings per diluted share were reduced by $0.04 due primarily to non-operational income tax expense related to the third quarter Regis Salon division non-cash, goodwill impairment charge.  Absent non-operational items, fourth quarter operational earnings were $0.34 per diluted share.  A complete reconciliation of reported earnings to operational earnings is included in today’s press release.  A more comprehensive reconciliation is available on the Company’s website at www.regiscorp.com.

On July 9, 2010, the Company reported that revenues for the fourth quarter ended June 30, 2010 decreased 5.6 percent to $590 million.

“During the past year, we have taken aggressive action to strengthen our balance sheet and improve our efficiency.  We have substantially lowered our debt, improved our cash flow and reduced expenses.   These measures played an important role in achieving our financial results,” said Paul D. Finkelstein, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

“Going forward our focus will be on top-line growth and we are budgeting same-store sales to improve throughout fiscal 2011, with positive comps expected in the second half of the year.  Same-store sales for the first fifty-five days of the current quarter are down 1.9 percent in contrast to a decline in consolidated total same-store sales of 2.7 percent for the fourth quarter. We have a huge opportunity to improve the overall customer experience.  Our customer service and communication programs, marketing and salon revitalization efforts will help mitigate the adverse effects of the current economy,” added Finkelstein.

“Finally, in an effort to further enhance shareholder value, we announced earlier this month that we are working with our financial advisors to review the various strategic options available to the Company,” concluded Finkelstein.

As of June 30, 2010 Regis Corporation owned, franchised, or held ownership interest in 12,728 worldwide locations.

Regis Corporation will host a conference call discussing fourth quarter results today, August 26, 2010 at 10 a.m., Central time. Interested parties are invited to listen by logging on to www.regiscorp.com or dialing 877-941-2927. A replay of the call will be available later that day.

These forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The forward—looking statements in this document reflect management’s best judgment at the time they are made, but all such statements are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, which could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by the statements herein. Such forward-looking statements are often identified herein by use of words including, but not limited to, “may,” “believe,” “project,” “forecast,” “expect,” “estimate,” “anticipate” and “plan.” In addition, the following factors could affect the Company’s actual results and cause such results to differ materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements.  These factors include the results and impact of the Company’s announcement to explore strategic alternatives; competition within the personal hair care industry, which remains strong, both domestically and internationally; price sensitivity; changes in economic conditions, and in particular, continued weakness in the U.S. and global economies; changes in consumer tastes and fashion trends; the ability of the Company to implement its planned spending and cost reduction plan and to continue to maintain compliance with the financial covenants in its credit agreements; labor and benefit costs; legal claims; risk inherent to international development (including currency fluctuations); the continued ability of the Company and its franchisees to obtain suitable locations and financing for new salon development and to maintain satisfactory relationships with landlords and other licensors with respect to existing locations; governmental initiatives such as minimum wage rates, taxes and possible franchise legislation; the ability of the Company to successfully identify, acquire and integrate salons that support its growth objectives; the ability of the Company to maintain satisfactory relationships with suppliers; the ability of the Company to consummate the planned closure of salons and the related realization of the anticipated costs, benefits and time frame; or other factors not listed above.  The ability of the Company to meet its expected revenue target is dependent on salon acquisitions, new salon construction and same-store sales increases, all of which are affected by many of the aforementioned risks. Additional information concerning potential factors that could affect future financial results is set forth in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2009.

Same-store sales decrease (1)	(2.7		)%	(4.0		)%	(3.2		)%	(3.1		)%

(1) Salon same-store sales 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 are the sum of the same-store sales 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.  Management believes that same-store sales, a component of organic growth, are useful in order to help determine the change in salon revenues attributable to its organic growth (new salon construction and same-store sales growth) versus growth from acquisitions.

(2) Beginning with the period ended December 31, 2008, the operations of the Trade Secret concept within the North American reportable segment were accounted for as a discontinued operation. All comparable periods will reflect Trade Secret as a discontinued operation.

(3) Premier Salons Beauty, Inc. (Premier) purchased Trade Secret, Inc. from Regis Corporation on February 16, 2009.  The agreement included a provision that Regis Corporation would supply product to Premier at cost for a transition period.  For the three months ended June 30, 2010, and 2009, the Company generated revenue of $0.0 and $19.6 million, respectively, in product sold to Premier, which represented 0.0 and 3.1 percent of consolidated revenues, respectively. For the twelve months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, the Company generated revenue of $20.0 and $32.2 million, respectively, in product sold to Premier, which represented 0.8 and 1.3 percent of consolidated revenues, respectively. The agreement was substantially complete as of September 30, 2009.

REGIS CORPORATION (NYSE: RGS)

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES (Unaudited)

The Company’s press release announcing results of operations for the three month period ended June 30, 2010 includes references to the following “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined by Regulation G of the Securities and Exchange Commission:

·As expected, fourth quarter reported earnings per diluted share were reduced by $0.04 due primarily to non-operational income tax expense related to the third quarter Regis Salon division non-cash, goodwill impairment charge.

·Absent non-operational items, fourth quarter operational earnings were $0.34 per diluted share.

Non-GAAP Diluted Net Income Per Share

The table below is provided to assist the reader’s understanding of the three month period ending June 30, 2010 earnings.  The Company believes that adjusted net income per diluted share from operations, a non-GAAP financial measure, is a useful basis to compare the Company’s results against, because unusual items during the three month period ending June 30, 2010, impacted the Company’s reported net income (see “Adjustments” in table below).  The presentation below reconciles reported net income per diluted share (U.S. GAAP amounts) to adjusted net income per diluted share from operations.  The adjusted net income per diluted share information should not be construed as an alternative to reported results under U.S. GAAP.

	Three Months Ended
	June 30, 2010
	(Dollars)
Diluted net income per share, as reported (U.S. GAAP) (1)	$	0.299
Adjustments:
Income tax expense (2)	0.056
Lease termination costs (3)	(0.012		)
Diluted net income per share from operations, adjusted (4)	$	0.344

(1) Diluted net income per share, as reported for the fourth quarter ending June 30, 2010 was calculated under the if-converted method.

(2) The fourth quarter ending June 30, 2010 included $3.8 million of after-tax income tax expense related to the non-cash goodwill impairment charge of the Company’s Regis salon division in the third quarter of fiscal year 2010.

(3) The fourth quarter ending June 30, 2010 included a $1.3 million ($0.8 million after-tax) benefit associated with the lease termination costs as part of the store closing plan of up to 80 underperforming company-owned salons in the United Kingdom.

(4) Total is a recalculation; line items calculated individually may not sum to total due to rounding.
