This inclusion, effective as of June 30, 2025, positions SBC Medical Group within a key benchmark for investment strategies, with approximately $18.1 trillion in assets benchmarked against Russell indexes globally.
The company's shares saw an uptick following its inclusion in the Russell 2000 Index, a common trend for newly added companies. This move is expected to attract more institutional investors, potentially reducing stock volatility and underscoring the company's growing significance in the cosmetic surgery market, both in Japan and worldwide.

Inoue, with his extensive background in brand strategy and digital marketing, including roles at Pioneer Corporation and P&G Japan, is set to drive the company's global expansion and enhance its digital marketing infrastructure. His appointment is seen as a pivotal step in SBC Medical Group's mission to make medical aesthetics more accessible and to further establish its presence in the international market.
The dual developments of joining the Russell 3000 Index and welcoming a new CMO underscore SBC Medical Group's ambitious growth trajectory and its commitment to leading the aesthetic medical industry into a new era of transparency and accessibility.
