PRIVILEGED & CONFIDENTIAL PRELIMINARY DRAFT SUBJECT TO DUE DILIGENCE & Additional Context for Evaluating the Offer SUBSTANTIAL REVISION Background on the Financial Projections Moelis conducted its financial analysis utilizing the Management Proposed LRP (50% Achievability) • Elegant’s Management prepared a preliminary business plan and presented it to the Board of Directors during a strate ng iny Oc ses tosbio er of 2025 as a part of their Q3 Board meeting, during which Management presented on both quarterly earnings and the bu-s foin rw es as rd ’ g so trategy (the “October Strategic Planning Forecast”).

The Management Proposed LRP (100% Achievability) assumes that the Company will invest beginning in 2026 in initiatives which Elegant’s Management has identified as core strategic areas. These investments iniinc tiatilude ves aimed at improving CRM, waxer training, onboarding, scheduling and ramping / mature center support o The initial impact of capital allocated to these strategic investments is expected to be partially offset by G&A savings included in the Management Proposed LRP (100% Achievability) o Management has also indicated that it has considered the possibility that it will need to withhold planned investments in order to maximize EBITDA and cash flows if certain of the strategic investments do not yield as strong of an impact on performance as projected o Management characterized the Management Proposed LRP (100% Achievability) as achievable and acknowledged that there are challenges Overview of inherent to executing the Management Proposed LRP (100% Achievability) and investing in the planned strategic initiatives Financial • After careful review of the Management Proposed LRP (100% Achievability), the Special Committee directed Management to prepare sensitivity Projections analysis on the potential impact of the LRP Initiatives • The Special Committee reviewed several sensitivity analyses at its meeting on January 6, 2026, and directed Moelis to conduct its financial analysis using the Management Proposed LRP (50% Achievability), which assumes the Company realizes 50% of the financial benefits from the LRP Initiatives. See next page for a summary of the key execution risks related to the LRP Initiatives • The Management Proposed LRP (50% Achievability) and Management Proposed LRP (100% Achievability) included several updates relative to the long-run financial plan shared with the Board of Directors in October 2025.

However, in Moelis’ experience and professional judgment, the Selected Publicly Traded Beauty Retailers operate different business models focused on the retail sale of consumer goods, whereas the majority of Elegant’s business focuses on delivering services ▪ The lower multiples that some of these companies have reflect the current challenges in the beauty end market, justifying a discount versus other consumer discretionary categories o Implied perpetuity growth rate of (0.3%) – 4.3% • Terminal value represents approximately 63% – 70% of the total DCF net present value Content must not go below this line Confidential | 20 Source: Management Proposed LRP (50% Achievability) provided to Moelis on 12/30/2025

PRIVILEGED & CONFIDENTIAL PRELIMINARY DRAFT SUBJECT TO DUE DILIGENCE & Sensitivity Analysis – For Reference Only SUBSTANTIAL REVISION Overview of Illustrative Sensitivity Analyses to the Management Proposed LRP (100% Achievability) At the direction of the Special Committee, Management has prepared several illustrative sensitivity analyses Summary of Illustrative Sensitivity Analyses • Reflects potential for timing risk of Management’s strategic initiatives, resulting in a -mon12 th delay in timing between initiative implementation and realization of benefit to the financial forecast • Assumes initiatives are launched on schedule with a 12-month delay in any related increase in transactions, and therefore system-wide-sales, expected to be generated from the initiatives; applies delay in transactions 12-Month Delay across-the-board in each year of forecast • Sensitivity analysis calculates system-wide-sales based on (i) the revised total transactions and (ii) the assumed dollars per transaction and then applies an EBITDA margin to system-wide-sales to calculate 1 implied Adj. EBITDA • Reflects potential for timing risk of Management’s strategic initiatives, resulting -im n a onth 6delay in timing between initiative implementation and realization of benefit to the financial forecast • Assumes initiatives are launched on schedule with a 6-month delay in any related increase in transactions, and therefore system-wide-sales, expected to be generated from the LRP Initiatives; applies delay in 6-Month Delay transactions across-the-board in each year of forecast • Sensitivity analysis calculates system-wide-sales based on (i) the revised total transactions and (ii) the assumed dollars per transaction and then applies an EBITDA margin to system-wide-sales to calculate 1 implied Adj. EBITDA • Reflects the preliminary forecast Management presented to the Elegant Board of Directors in October 2025 as part of the Strategic Planning meeting • Management indicated that the forecast was a preliminary “beta” draft of the LRP and was not meant to be October Board Strategic viewed as “final”. The forecast was never formally approved or discussed in detail by the Elegant Board of Planning Forecast Directors • Management continued to refine the forecast as they gained additional visibility into 2026. After assessing that certain of the assumptions may ultimately be challenging to maintain over time (e.g., net new center openings, same-store sales growth), Management decided to update the forecast 1 The 12-Month and 6-Month Delay sensitivities assume the same EBITDA margin as a percentage of System-Wide-Sales Content must not go below this line Confidential | 40 Source: Management Strategic Initiatives Analysis build, October 2025 Strategic Planning Board Materials 1.
