SBC Medical Group Holdings Inc Commitments Disclosure
NOTE 22 — COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Guarantees
As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, a subsidiary of the Company provided a guarantee on the debt of its CEO in the amounts of $228,210 and $262,095, respectively. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company did not record a liability in the consolidated balance sheets for the guarantee because, based on the management's assessment, it was not probable that the Company would be required to make payments under the guarantee.
Investment Commitment (OT Midco)
In addition to the $20 million investment in OT Midco discussed in Note 5, the Company has committed to make an additional $5 million investment in cash, payable in December 2026 or such other month as may be mutually agreed upon by the Company and the investee. The Company will recognize the additional investment upon execution.
Litigation
From time to time, the Company is involved in legal proceedings, claims and other matters arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company assesses the likelihood of an adverse outcome and, where appropriate, establishes accruals for loss contingencies in accordance with applicable accounting guidance. If a loss is reasonably possible, the Company discloses the nature of the contingency and an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss, or states that such an estimate cannot be made.
On February 11, 2026, a purported stockholder class action complaint was filed against the Company and its directors in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, alleging violations under Delaware General Corporation Law Section 141(k) and Delaware common law, due to the Company’s charter wrongly restricting the removal of directors to “only for cause.” The complaint seeks an unspecified amount of declaratory and injunctive relief, class certification, and an award of attorneys’ fees and costs, among other relief as the court may deem just and proper. The Company cannot reasonably estimate a range of loss for this action as of the date the consolidated financial statements are issued.

About Commitments Disclosures
Commitments and contingencies disclosures catalog a company's off-balance-sheet obligations and legal exposures — purchase commitments, guarantee arrangements, pending litigation, and regulatory proceedings. These items represent potential future cash outflows that may not appear as liabilities on the balance sheet until they become probable and estimable.
Key signals: litigation reserves and disclosed loss ranges quantify management's estimate of legal exposure, but unquantified "reasonably possible" losses often represent the larger risk. Watch for changes in language around pending cases — shifts from "remote" to "reasonably possible" or increases in estimated loss ranges signal deteriorating outcomes. Unconditional purchase obligations and take-or-pay contracts create fixed cost structures that reduce operational flexibility. Guarantee arrangements for subsidiaries or joint ventures can create cascading obligations. Compare the total commitment schedule against projected free cash flow to assess whether the company can meet its obligations without additional financing.
