In the meantime, MEI's series of losses had forced the company to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection; the dispute with Regis was settled through the United States Bankruptcy Court in December 1993.

In 1993, the company held 260 international salons: 217 in its U.K. subsidiary, 35 in Canada, and eight in Mexico.
