Regis Corporation experiences demand seasonality for its products and services. The company's third fiscal quarter is typically a seasonally weaker period. Despite this, Regis reported positive cash flow from operations in the third quarter of fiscal year 2025. The company's focus on value-conscious consumers and its presence in locations like strip malls and Walmart stores suggest a relatively consistent demand for basic hair care services.
