Planet Fitness: Rating Upgrade On Clear Long-Term Earnings Growth Outlook
Summary I upgrade my rating for Planet Fitness to a strong buy due to a brighter earnings growth outlook and solid demand fundamentals. Key drivers include increased membership, pricing power, improved franchisee returns, and international expansion, particularly in Europe.

Planet Fitness: A New Year Brings More Hope To This Gym Franchise (Rating Upgrade)
Summary I'm upgrading Planet Fitness to a neutral rating after a sharp acceleration in revenue as well as same-club sales in Q4. The company plans to open 160-170 new gyms in FY25, up from 150 in FY24, alongside 5-6% same-club sales growth. Strong same-club sales growth has been driven by recent price increases and upsells to the higher-tier Black Card membership, thanks to a shrinking price gap between the two tiers. Key risks include potential churn after the New Year season and reliance on re-equipment sales, which could impact franchisee profitability. At ~18x forward adjusted EBITDA, Planet Fitness remains expensive. I'm holding out for an entry point near ~$65, or 13x adjusted EBITDA. Read the full article on Seeking AlphaSeeking Alpha • Feb 26
Planet Fitness: Well-Run, But A Slow Year Ahead
Summary Planet Fitness Q4 revenues rose 19.4% to $340.5 million, driven by higher membership fees, new equipment sales, and franchise fees. Adjusted EBITDA increased to $130.8 million, with net income up to $47.6 million, beating earnings estimates by $0.08 per share. Despite strong performance, guidance for 2025 was light, with 160-170 new clubs and 5-6% same-store sales growth, lower than historical rates. We continue to hold our house position due to long-term growth potential, despite current valuation concerns and market pressure. Read the full article on Seeking AlphaAnalysis Article • Feb 11

Planet Fitness: Rating Upgrade On Growth Acceleration Outlook
Summary I upgraded my rating for Planet Fitness from Hold to Buy, anticipating mid-teens revenue growth driven by macro and demographic tailwinds.

PLNT's strong brand awareness and scale advantage position it well to capture demand from the growing Gen Z demographic focused on fitness and affordability.
