Grew revenue 67% to $35.8 million.

 

•

Increased system-wide sales1 by 179%, to $171.6 million.

 

•

Reported system-wide same store sales2 growth of 129%.

 

•

Posted net loss of $8.0 million, compared to a loss of $4.8 million.

 

•

Reported Adjusted EBITDA3 of $8.3 million, compared to $(3.1) million.

Q2 2021 Operating Highlights

 

•

Opened 59 new studios; nearly 100% of the 1,824 North American studios open and operational during the quarter.

 

•

Sold 197 North American franchise licenses, compared to 46 in Q2 2020.

 

•

Increased total North American studio count to 1,824 at June 30, 2021, up from 1,765 total studios at March 31, 2021.

 

•

Reported fourth consecutive quarter of sequential system-wide sales improvement, representing consistent system recovery since the second quarter of 2020.

 

•

Recovery of nearly 90% run-rate AUVs4 as compared to January 31, 2020, placing the Company on track to reach pre-pandemic run-rate AUVs by early 2022.

“I’m extremely pleased with our second quarter 2021 financial results,” commented Anthony Geisler, Chief Executive Officer of Xponential Fitness, Inc. “As is evident from our solid year-over-year revenue growth and the sale of 197 North American franchisee licenses in Q2, our business has rapidly rebounded to pre-pandemic levels and importantly, as of today’s date, is showing no signs of slowing down in the third quarter. When comparing the end of the second quarter of 2021 to January 31, 2020, even without taking into account our newest brand, Rumble, our business had recovered to 103% of actively paying members, 98% of total visits and a nearly 90% run-rate AUV. Thus far in Q3, this positive trajectory has continued. In July, we recorded our highest-ever monthly system-wide sales, and our August results to-date remain solid. So far in August, compared to the end of Q2, we’ve seen an increase in our total memberships and our actively paying members, both overall and at a per studio level.”

Mr. Geisler continued, “Since Xponential Fitness’ founding in 2017, our mission has been to make boutique fitness accessible to everyone. Today, we are the largest boutique fitness franchisor in the United States and have over 1,850 studios operating globally across nine leading boutique fitness brands. In July, we reached an important milestone in our history by completing our IPO,

which positions us well to continue to successfully execute our mission and differentiated business strategy for years to come. Looking ahead, we are confident in our ability to continue expanding our market share in the large and growing boutique fitness industry as we unlock the incredible power of the Xponential platform.”

Financial Results for the Second Quarter Ended June 30, 2021

For the second quarter 2021, total revenue increased $14.3 million, or 67%, to $35.8 million, up from $21.5 million in the prior-year period. This strong increase in revenues included a corresponding system-wide same store sales increase of 129% year-over-year.

Second quarter net loss was $8.0 million, compared to a loss of $4.8 million in the prior-year period. Net loss in the second quarter of 2021 was positively impacted by a one-time $3.7 million forgiveness of a Payment Protection Program (“PPP”) loan.

On a per share basis for the second quarter, net loss totaled $0.33 per diluted share on a pro forma basis based on a share count of 21,694,000 shares. For additional information on the calculation of share count in the second quarter and first half of 2021, please see the non-GAAP tables at the end of this press release.

Adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for equity-based compensation, acquisition & transaction expenses, management fees, litigation expenses and a change in fair value of contingencies, increased significantly to $8.3 million, up from a loss of $3.1 million in the prior-year period. For a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, please see the tables at the end of this press release.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of June 30, 2021, the Company had approximately $20.2 million of cash and cash equivalents and $206.8 million in total debt. Net cash provided by operating activities was $0.8 million during the second quarter of 2021.

In June, the Company was notified that it received forgiveness for a PPP loan received in April 2020 as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act. Including accrued interest, this PPP loan forgiveness resulted in a gain on debt extinguishment of $3.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Initial Public Offering

In July 2021, the Company sold 10.0 million shares of its common stock in its initial public offering and received net proceeds of $120 million. Xponential also raised $200 million through the sale of convertible preferred stock. In addition to the payment of transaction fees related to the IPO and the convertible preferred stock, the proceeds from the IPO and convertible preferred were used to pay down $116.1 million of the Company’s Term Loan, which includes a prepayment penalty and interest aggregating $1.1 million, reducing the Company’s commitments for payment of debt principal to $96.5 million.

 

2

In August 2021, the Company sold 904,000 shares of Class A common stock to the underwriters of its initial public offering pursuant to the underwriter’s option to purchase additional shares. After underwriter discounts and commissions, net proceeds of approximately $10.1 million were received on August 24, 2021. Xponential intends to use $9.0 million of such net proceeds to purchase 750,000 LLC Units from the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the remaining proceeds will be used for working capital.

2021 Outlook

Based on current business conditions and future expectations as of the date of this release, the Company is initiating its outlook for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2021. Please note should further restrictions be enforced as a result of the pandemic, such as government mandated studio closures, these restrictions could have a material negative impact on the Company’s business and financial performance. The Company anticipates the following:

 

•

Studio openings in the range of 215 to 235;

 

•

North America system-wide sales in the range of $690 million to $700 million, or an increase of 57% at the midpoint as compared to full year 2020;

 

•

Revenue in the range of $135.5 million to $137.0 million, or an increase of 28% at the midpoint as compared to full year 2020; and

 

•

Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $22.0 million to $23.0 million, or an increase of 129% at the midpoint as compared to full year 2020.

The above estimates are based on the following additional assumptions for full year 2021:

 

•

Tax rate of approximately 5%;

 

•

Share count of 22.6 million for EPS calculation, which includes the 904,000 additional shares issued in August 2021 following a partial exercise by underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares related to the IPO; and

 

•

$3.25 million in quarterly dividends paid as related to the $200 million Preferred Convertible note.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to our results determined in accordance with GAAP, we believe non-GAAP measures are useful in evaluating our operating performance. We use certain non-GAAP financial information, such as EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, to evaluate our ongoing operations and for internal planning and forecasting purposes. We believe that non-GAAP financial information, when taken collectively with comparable GAAP financial measures, is helpful to investors because it provides consistency and comparability with past financial performance, and provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of our business, results of operations or outlook. However, non-GAAP financial information is presented for supplemental informational purposes only, has limitations as an analytical tool, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with GAAP. In addition, other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate similarly titled non-GAAP measures differently or may use other measures to evaluate their performance, all of which could reduce the usefulness of our non-GAAP financial measure as tools for comparison. We seek to compensate such limitations by providing a detailed reconciliation for the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures stated in accordance with GAAP. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures and not rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.

Shares of Class B common stock do not participate in the earnings or losses of Xponential Fitness, Inc. As a result, the shares of Class B common stock are not considered participating securities and are not included in the weighted average shares outstanding for purposes of computing pro forma loss per share.

Note: Potentially dilutive securities that are antidilutive have been excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share as outlined above. Potential common shares that have been excluded from net loss per share because the effect of including them would be antidilutive include the Convertible Preferred, potential common shares issued as contingent consideration under the Rumble acquisition agreement and potential common shares to be issued under our 2021 Plan and ESPP. Please note that beginning in the third quarter 2021, the total share count for EPS calculation purposes will be increased to 22.6 million shares to reflect the additional 904,000 shares issued in August 2021 following a partial exercise by underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares related to the IPO.

System-wide sales represent gross sales by all studios. System-wide sales includes sales by franchisees that are not revenue realized by us in accordance with GAAP. While we do not record sales by franchisees as revenue, and such sales are not included in our consolidated financial statements, this operating metric relates to our revenue because we receive approximately 7% and 2% of the sales by franchisees as royalty revenue and marketing fee revenue, respectively. We believe that this operating measure aids in understanding how we derive our royalty revenue and marketing fee revenue and is important in evaluating our performance. System-wide sales growth is driven by new studio openings and increases in same store sales. Management reviews system-wide sales monthly, which enables us to assess changes in our franchise revenue, overall studio performance, the health of our brands and the strength of our market position relative to competitors.

2

Same store sales refer to period-over-period sales comparisons for the base of studios. We define the same store sales base to include studios in North America that have been open for at least 13 calendar months as of the measurement date. Any transfer of ownership of a studio does not affect this metric. We measure same store sales based solely upon monthly sales as reported by franchisees. This measure highlights the performance of existing studios, while excluding the impact of new studio openings. Management reviews same store sales to assess the health of the franchised studios.

3

We define adjusted EBITDA as EBITDA (net income/loss before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization), adjusted for the impact of certain non-cash and other items that we do not consider in our evaluation of ongoing operating performance. These items include equity-based compensation, acquisition and transaction expenses (income) (including change in contingent consideration), management fees and expenses (that will be discontinued after July 2021), integration and related expenses and litigation expenses (consisting of legal and related fees for specific proceedings that arise outside of the ordinary course of our business) that we do not believe reflect our underlying business performance and affect comparability. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are also frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. We believe that adjusted EBITDA is an appropriate measure of operating performance because it eliminates the impact of expenses that we do not believe reflect our underlying business performance. We believe that adjusted EBITDA, viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of, our reported GAAP results, provides useful information to investors regarding our performance and overall results of operations because it eliminates the impact of other items that we believe reduce the comparability of our underlying core business performance from period to period and is therefore useful to our investors in comparing the core performance of our business from period to period.

AUV is calculated by dividing sales during the applicable period for all studios being measured by the number of studios being measured. Quarterly run-rate AUV is calculated as the quarterly AUV multiplied by four, for studios that are at least 6 months old at the beginning of the respective quarter. Monthly run-rate AUV is calculated as the monthly AUV multiplied by twelve, for studios that are at least 6 months old at the beginning of the respective month. AUV growth is primarily driven by changes in same store sales and is also influenced by new studio openings. Management reviews AUV to assess studio economics.
