“2021 was a milestone year for Xponential Fitness,” said Anthony Geisler, CEO of Xponential Fitness, Inc. “In addition to successfully completing our initial public offering in July, we reported record financial results. Our strong performance was driven largely by consistent growth in our membership base. Actively paying members and visitation rates grew by approximately 70% and 50%, respectively, in the fourth quarter compared to the prior year, as boutique fitness customers returned to the in-person fitness classes offered by our exceptional portfolio of ten complementary brands.”

Mr. Geisler continued, “Overall, in 2021, we were able to demonstrate the resilience of our business, and the momentum experienced in the fourth quarter places Xponential in a strong position in 2022. Our revenue and Adjusted EBITDA are significantly higher today than they were prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, up 20% and 66%, respectively, in 2021 vs. 2019. We enter 2022 with the largest studio count in our Company’s history and we anticipate opening over 500 new studios this year. We look forward to continuing to drive revenue growth and margin expansion as we scale our platform in 2022.”

Results for the Fourth Quarter Ended December 31, 2021

Please note that all information discussed herein includes the contribution of BFT, Xponential’s tenth brand, from its acquisition in October 2021 onwards.

For the fourth quarter 2021, total revenue increased $21.6 million, or 78%, to $49.4 million, up from $27.8 million in the prior-year period. This increase included a corresponding North American same store sales increase of 53%.

Net loss totaled $29.8 million, or a loss of $2.45 per share, compared to a loss of $5.1 million in the prior-year period. The increase was the result of $2.8 million of higher overall profitability, offset by a $22.5 million increase in non-cash contingent consideration primarily related to the Rumble acquisition, and a $5.1 million increase in non-cash equity-based compensation expense. Please see the table at the back of the release for a calculation of the basic and diluted loss per share for the quarter ended December 31, 2021.

Consistent with previous periods, the Rumble acquisition non-cash contingent consideration earn-out liability is being marked-to-market based on Xponential’s share price. With the share price increasing over 60% between September and December 2021, a corresponding increased earn-out liability was recorded. As part of this adjustment, Xponential’s total share count does not increase until the shares vest, which occurs at a weighted average share price of $61.90.

Adjusted Net Loss for the fourth quarter 2021, which excludes the $22.4 million non-cash contingent consideration related primarily to the Rumble acquisition and $1.3 million related to the re-measurement of the Company’s tax receivable agreement, was $6.1 million, or $0.21 per share, on a share count of 22.6 million shares.

Adjusted EBITDA, which is defined as net income before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for equity-based compensation, acquisition & transaction expenses, management fees, integration and related expenses, litigation expenses, employee retention credit and tax receivable agreement re-measurement, increased to $8.6 million, up from $3.3 million in the prior-year period.

Results for the Full Year Ended December 31, 2021

Consistent with the fourth quarter 2021, all information discussed below includes the contribution of BFT, Xponential’s tenth brand, from its acquisition in October 2021 onwards.

For the full year 2021, total revenue increased $48.5 million, or 45%, to $155.1 million, up from $106.6 million in 2020. This increase in revenue included a corresponding North American same store sales increase of 41% year-over-year.

Net loss totaled $51.4 million, or a loss of $2.85 per share, compared to a loss of $13.6 million. The increase was the result of $6.8 million of higher overall profitability, a $36.6 million increase in non-cash contingent consideration related to the Company’s Rumble acquisition, and a $7.9 million increase in non-cash equity-based compensation expense.

Adjusted Net Loss for the full year 2021, which excludes the $25.6 million non-cash contingent consideration related primarily to the Rumble acquisition and $1.4 million related to the re-measurement of the Company’s tax receivable agreement, was $24.4 million, or $0.80 per share, on a share count of 22.4 million shares.

Adjusted EBITDA as defined above increased to $27.3 million, up from $9.8 million in the prior year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of December 31, 2021, the Company had approximately $21.3 million of cash and cash equivalents and $130.9 million in total debt. Net cash provided by operating activities was $14.5 million for the full year ended December 31, 2021.

2022 Outlook

Full-year 2022 outlook is as follows:

  • New studio openings in the range of 500 to 520, or an increase of 81% at the midpoint as compared to full year 2021;
  • North American system-wide sales in the range of $995.0 million to $1.005 billion, or an increase of 41% at the midpoint as compared to full year 2021;
  • Revenue in the range of $201.0 million to $211.0 million, or an increase of 33% at the midpoint as compared to full year 2021; and
  • Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $67.0 million to $71.0 million, or an increase of 153% at the midpoint as compared to full year 2021.

Additional key assumptions for full year 2022 include:

  • Tax rate of approximately 5%;
  • Share count of 22.6 million shares of Class A Common Stock for the GAAP EPS and Adjusted EPS calculations. A full explanation of the Company’s share count calculation and associated EPS and Adjusted EPS calculations can be found in the tables at the back of this release; and
  • $3.25 million in quarterly dividends paid related to the $200 million Convertible Preferred Stock issued in connection with the IPO.

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, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income or Loss, and Adjusted Net Income or Loss per share, which adjust for acquisition-related expenses, certain non-cash charges, and other unusual non-operating or non-recurring items that we believe are not representative of our core business or future operating performance, 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. For a reconciliation of non-GAAP to GAAP measures discussed in this release, please see the tables at the end of this press release.

Forward-Looking Statements

Other unknown or unpredictable factors or underlying assumptions subsequently proving to be incorrect could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements.

Note: The above Adjusted Net Loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to holders of Class A common stock by the weighted average shares of Class A common stock outstanding during the period. Total share count does not include potential future shares vested upon achieving certain earn-out thresholds. Net income, however, continues to take into account the non-cash contingent liability due to Rumble.

Footnotes

1System-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 fund revenue, respectively. We believe that this operating measure aids in understanding how we derive our royalty revenue and marketing fund 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.

3AUV 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.

4No comparison of Net Loss per share, and Adjusted Net Loss per share to Q4 2020 is provided as such comparison is not meaningful given the Company’s pre-IPO capital structure.

5We 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 were discontinued after July 2021), integration and related expenses, litigation expenses (consisting of legal and related fees for specific proceedings that arise outside of the ordinary course of our business), employee retention credit and TRA remeasurement 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.
