MEDIROM Healthcare Technologies Inc., Announces its latest Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

New York/November 19, 2021 - MEDIROM Healthcare Technologies Inc. (Nasdaq CM: MRM), a holistic healthcare Company based in Japan (the "Company"), today announced its major Key Performance Indicators, or KPIs, updated for the month of October 2021. Data is provided for all salons for which comparative financial and customer data is available and excludes certain salons where such information is not available.

The following monthly KPIs provide insight into the business fundamentals and progress of the Company, updated for the month of October 2021.

· The number of salons was 316 in October 2021, up from 291 in the year-ago period, primarily as a result of the acquisition of another salon brand in May 2021.
· Total customers served increased to 68,608 in October 2021 from 65,820 in the year-ago period. Such increase is mainly attributed to the government's lifting the state of emergency on September 30, 2021 and recovery from COVD-19 impact.
· Sales per customer increased to JPY 6,486 in October 2021, up from JPY6,269 in October 2020. Such increase is mainly attributed to the upselling of value-added optional services.
· Our repeat ratio, a measure of repeat customers, increased to 83.3% in October 2021 from 80.3% in the year-ago period.
· Our operation ratio was 48.9% in October 2021, slightly improving from 47.0% in the year-ago period.
· Total number of salons with data was 221 in October 2021, no change from October 2020. The number of salons with data decreases when we close salons with data available and increases as we open salons with such data.
