About Cabling Installation & Maintenance

Our mission: Bringing practical business and technical intelligence to today's structured cabling professionals

For more than 30 years, Cabling Installation & Maintenance has provided useful, practical information to professionals responsible for the specification, design, installation and management of structured cabling systems serving enterprise, data center and other environments. These professionals are challenged to stay informed of constantly evolving standards, system-design and installation approaches, product and system capabilities, technologies, as well as applications that rely on high-performance structured cabling systems. Our editors synthesize these complex issues into multiple information products. This portfolio of information products provides concrete detail that improves the efficiency of day-to-day operations, and equips cabling professionals with the perspective that enables strategic planning for networks’ optimum long-term performance.

Throughout our annual magazine, weekly email newsletters and 24/7/365 website, Cabling Installation & Maintenance digs into the essential topics our audience focuses on.

  • Design, Installation and Testing: We explain the bottom-up design of cabling systems, from case histories of actual projects to solutions for specific problems or aspects of the design process. We also look at specific installations using a case-history approach to highlight challenging problems, solutions and unique features. Additionally, we examine evolving test-and-measurement technologies and techniques designed to address the standards-governed and practical-use performance requirements of cabling systems.
  • Technology: We evaluate product innovations and technology trends as they impact a particular product class through interviews with manufacturers, installers and users, as well as contributed articles from subject-matter experts.
  • Data Center: Cabling Installation & Maintenance takes an in-depth look at design and installation workmanship issues as well as the unique technology being deployed specifically for data centers.
  • Physical Security: Focusing on the areas in which security and IT—and the infrastructure for both—interlock and overlap, we pay specific attention to Internet Protocol’s influence over the development of security applications.
  • Standards: Tracking the activities of North American and international standards-making organizations, we provide updates on specifications that are in-progress, looking forward to how they will affect cabling-system design and installation. We also produce articles explaining the practical aspects of designing and installing cabling systems in accordance with the specifications of established standards.

Emerging Growth Research Initiates Coverage on SBC Medical Group Holdings, Inc. with Buy-Extended Rating and $9.00 Price Target

By: Newsfile

New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - September 4, 2025) - Emerging Growth Research today announced the initiation of coverage on SBC Medical Group Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: SBC) with a Buy-Extended rating and a 12-month price target of $9.00, more than double the Company's recent closing price of $4.06.

The initiation report highlights SBC's dominant position in Japan's cosmetic treatment industry, its strong cash position, and growing global expansion strategy, while also acknowledging near-term revenue pressures due to pricing competition in the domestic market.

Key Highlights from the Initiation Report:

  • Market Leadership: SBC operates 259 clinics across Japan, Vietnam, and Singapore, with over 6.3 million annual patient visits and a 72% repeat rate, making it the largest player in Japan's fragmented cosmetic treatment industry.
  • Global Expansion: The Company is executing an international strategy with recent acquisitions in Singapore, new senior hires from Amazon, Rakuten, and P&G, and plans for further expansion in Southeast Asia and the U.S.
  • Strong Balance Sheet: As of Q2:25, SBC held $153 million in cash against just $7 million in long-term debt. Net cash represents ~35% of SBC's market capitalization.
  • Revenue Trends: Q2:25 revenue was $43.4 million, down (18)% year-over-year, primarily due to revised franchising fees and the exit from staffing services. Underlying procedure volumes grew, supported by a 16% increase in clinic count.
  • Valuation Opportunity: Despite short-term headwinds, Emerging Growth Research views SBC as heavily undervalued. A DCF analysis implies a fair value of $9.19 per share, rounded down to the $9.00 price target.

According to Emerging Growth Research's analysis, while near-term growth is expected to remain pressured through early 2026, SBC's long-term prospects are compelling. The Company's ample liquidity, franchise-based business model with 70%-75% gross margins, and aggressive M&A strategy position it as a leading consolidator in the global cosmetic treatment industry.
