I think i understand that's happening.
Your first search-replace modifies tha $local_part variable (unfortunately)
so that when you work with it again, its value is already "subscribe"
You can verify this by replacing
${sg{$local_part}{^.*-}{}}
with just $local_part
I'm afraid I don't have a solution to your problem though, you'd somehow
have to make a copy of local_part before you start applying a substitution
to it.
