Kanen Wealth Management Urges Xponential Fitness (NYSE: XPOF) Board to Initiate Strategic Review, Including Potential Sale
XPOF Xponential Fitness
FMP Stock News
Original source text
To the Board of Directors of Xponential Fitness, Inc. (NYSE: XPOF):

COCONUT CREEK, Fla., April 01, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kanen Wealth Management, LLC, as owners of approximately 4% of the Company’s outstanding Class A shares, urges the Board to immediately initiate and publicly announce a formal review of strategic alternatives, including a sale of the Company. The Board should establish an independent Special Committee and retain a qualified financial advisor to conduct a good-faith process with credible bidders.

This letter follows a private communication we sent to the Board in March 2026. In our view, our conversations with the Company’s former CFO and current Chairman suggest a degree of alignment at the leadership level, with both appearing receptive to pursuing strategic alternatives as a rational and appropriate path forward. Our characterization reflects our interpretation of those discussions, and we recognize that views may differ. Notably, we did not encounter material opposition to the concept of exploring a transition to private ownership.

Given this apparent alignment, the absence of a public process is increasingly difficult to justify.

Based on our discussions with other investors and the Company’s prolonged valuation dislocation, we believe most shareholders support a strategic review, particularly given ongoing governance instability and execution uncertainty.

Structural Instability Has Driven a Valuation Disconnect

As outlined in our prior correspondence, three Chief Executive Officers in three years, repeated operational resets, financial restatements, and regulatory scrutiny signal structural instability. This level of leadership turnover is not transitional, it reflects deeper governance and execution challenges. SEC inquiries and FTC-related matters have further undermined credibility and diverted focus from disciplined operations. Public markets have responded accordingly, with a severe compression in valuation and investor confidence.

Our position is not rooted in pessimism about the Company’s brands. To the contrary, we believe Xponential owns a premier asset in Club Pilates, which is a category-defining franchise with durable unit economics and substantial embedded value not reflected in today’s share price.

After allocating appropriate G&A, we estimate Club Pilates can generate $100M+ of EBITDA today, with a clear path to $125–150M within three years under focused stewardship. Applying a conservative 10–12x multiple implies an enterprise value of $1.25–1.8 billion for Club Pilates alone, representing material upside relative to the Company’s current valuation after accounting for net debt and the TRA.

The market is discounting governance risk, not asset quality. A public strategic process would improve transparency and accountability and allow market participants to reassess XPOF’s intrinsic value. Private ownership would enable the operational reset required to unlock this value without the credibility overhang and quarterly scrutiny suppressing the stock.

We believe the current share price materially understates intrinsic value, and that a strategic process would result in a transaction at a substantial premium. Under a streamlined structure with reduced interest expense and SG&A rationalization, Xponential could generate $125M+ of EBITDA and $80M+ of FCF, supporting an attractive acquisition multiple for a scaled, asset-light franchise system.

The Board’s Fiduciary Duty

The Board’s responsibility is to maximize shareholder value through independent and objective judgment. Leadership appears aligned around pursuing alternatives, shareholders broadly support a review, and valuation remains materially disconnected from intrinsic value—yet no formal process has been initiated.

The status quo has failed to restore credibility or close the valuation gap. Another operating reset will not resolve these structural issues. A public, disciplined exploration of strategic alternatives is the most direct path to accountability and value realization.

We expect the Board to act decisively.

Sincerely,

David Kanen
President
Kanen Wealth Management, LLC.

Xponential Fitness, Inc. Investigated by the Portnoy Law Firm
XPOF Xponential Fitness
FMP Stock News
Original source text
LOS ANGELES, April 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Portnoy Law Firm advises Xponential Fitness, Inc., (“Xponential" or the "Company") (NYSE:XPOF) investors that the firm has initiated an investigation into possible securities fraud, and may file a class action on behalf of investors.

Investors are encouraged to contact attorney Lesley F. Portnoy, by phone 310-692-8883 or email: [email protected], to discuss their legal rights, or join the case via https://portnoylaw.com/xponential-fitness-inc. The Portnoy Law Firm can provide a complimentary case evaluation and discuss investors’ options for pursuing claims to recover their losses.

Xponential’s stock price plummeted by as much as 39% during intraday trading on June 27, 2023, thereby injuring investors. This sharp market decline was triggered by a June 26, 2023, report from Fuzzy Panda Research alleging that the boutique fitness franchisor was “hiding the fact that many of their brands and franchisees are struggling.” The research firm directly challenged management’s transparency, specifically disputing the CEO’s claims that the Company has “never closed a store” by documenting more than 30 permanently shuttered locations. Furthermore, the report cited franchise documents suggesting a dire financial outlook for the majority of the network, claiming that 8 out of every 10 Xponential brands lose money on a monthly basis. With allegations that over half of the Company’s studios have failed to ever produce a positive financial return, the market reacted with significant volatility to the prospect of systemic operational failures and misleading corporate narratives.

The Portnoy Law Firm represents investors in pursuing claims caused by corporate wrongdoing. The Firm’s founding partner has recovered over $5.5 billion for aggrieved investors. Attorney advertising. Prior results do not guarantee similar outcomes.

Xponential Fitness, Inc. Announces First Quarter 2026 Financial Results

FMP Stock News
Original source text
IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Xponential Fitness, Inc. (NYSE: XPOF) (“Xponential” or the “Company”), one of the leading global franchisors of boutique health and wellness brands, today reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026.

Financial Highlights: Q1 2026 Compared to Q1 2025

Revenue of $60.7 million decreased 21%. North America system-wide sales1 increased 2% to $436.9 million. North America same store sales2 decreased 6%, compared to growth of 6%. North America quarterly run-rate average unit volume (AUV)3 of $662,000, compared to $685,000. Net loss of $0.8 million, or a loss of $0.02 per basic share, on a share count of 37.3 million shares of Class A Common Stock, compared to a net loss of $2.7 million, or loss per basic share of $0.10, on a share count of 33.9 million shares of Class A Common Stock. Adjusted net loss4 of $2.0 million, or an adjusted net loss of $0.04 per basic share4, compared to adjusted net loss4 of $7.7 million, or adjusted net loss of $0.20 per basic share4. Adjusted EBITDA5 of $20.4 million, compared to $27.3 million. “During the first quarter, we continued to strengthen execution across Xponential, including the addition of Robert Julian as interim Chief Financial Officer, Erik Quade as Chief Information Officer, and starting mid-May Steph So as our new Chief Marketing Officer, which further deepens our capabilities across finance, technology, and marketing,” said Mike Nuzzo, CEO of Xponential Fitness, Inc. “We are operating as a more unified organization, aligning marketing, operations, technology, and brand-building to drive stronger performance and lay the foundation for continued improvement.”

Mr. Nuzzo continued, “As we look ahead, our focus is on restoring sustainable organic growth through a more disciplined framework. This includes stabilizing top-of-funnel lead generation, improving lead-to-member conversion, and optimizing pricing and membership structures over time, all while continuing to support retention through class innovation, studio remodel programs, and clear brand positioning. We are confident these actions will strengthen performance and position us well for the quarters ahead.”

Operating Results for the First Quarter Ended March 31, 2026

Total revenue was $60.7 million, down 21% from the prior year period. The decline in total revenue was expected and driven primarily by strategic divestitures, fewer equipment installations, and lower merchandise revenue following the Company’s transition to the new outsourced logistics arrangement.

Franchise revenue was $41.2 million, down 6% year-over-year. This decline was driven primarily by a decrease in same store sales, coupled with brand divestitures completed in 2025.

Equipment revenue was $4.4 million, down 61% year-over-year. This decrease was primarily the result of fewer global equipment installations, driven by fewer studio openings and lower franchise license sales.

Merchandise revenue was $0.7 million, down 90% year-over-year. The decrease was primarily driven by the Company’s transition from an in-house wholesale model, where it recorded the full value of merchandise revenue, to an outsourced retail model, which now records only the commission, or net profit from retail items sold.

Franchise marketing fund revenue was $8.7 million, down 6% year-over-year. The decrease was primarily due to lower system-wide sales stemming from divested brands.

Other service revenue was $5.8 million, down 8% year-over-year, primarily driven by lower vendor commission and brand access fee revenues.

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $30.0 million, down 34% year-over-year, primarily driven by lower legal and personnel-related costs.

Marketing fund expenses were $11.7 million, up 25% year-over-year. This increase reflected the timing of incremental marketing spend, as the Company front-loaded more investment in the first quarter of 2026 compared with the first quarter of 2025.

Net loss totaled $0.8 million, or a loss of $0.02 per basic share, compared to a net loss of $2.7 million, or a loss of $0.10 per basic share, in the prior year period.

Adjusted net loss4 was $2.0 million, or adjusted net loss of $0.04 per basic share4, compared to adjusted net loss4 of $7.7 million, or adjusted net loss of $0.20 per basic share4.

Adjusted EBITDA5 was $20.4 million, down 25% from $27.3 million in the prior year period.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

As of March 31, 2026, the Company had approximately $21.5 million of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash and $523.7 million in total long-term debt. Net cash used in operating activities was $21.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2026.

All financial data included in this release refer to global numbers, unless otherwise noted. All KPI information is presented on an adjusted basis to include full historical data for all brands in the brand portfolio as of March 31, 2026, and to exclude all information for all brands not owned as of March 31, 2026. Definitions for the non-GAAP measures and a reconciliation to the corresponding GAAP measures are included in the tables that accompany this release.

2026 Outlook

The Company is reiterating full year 2026 outlook, which compares to 2025 results as follows:

Net new studio openings in the range of 150 to 170, or a decrease of 20% at the midpoint; North America system-wide sales1 in the range of $1.72 billion to $1.80 billion, or an increase of 1% at the midpoint; Revenue in the range of $260.0 million to $270.0 million, representing a decrease of 16% at the midpoint; and Adjusted EBITDA5 in the range of $100.0 million to $110.0 million, representing a decrease of 6% at the midpoint. Additional key assumptions for full year 2026 include:

Tax rate in the mid-to-high single digits; Share count of 40.9 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 end of this press release. The Company is not able to provide a quantitative reconciliation of the estimated full year Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal year ending December 31, 2026 without unreasonable efforts to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure due to the high variability, complexity and low visibility with respect to certain items such as taxes, tax receivable agreement remeasurements, and income and expense from changes in fair value of contingent consideration from acquisitions. We expect the variability of these items to have a potentially unpredictable and potentially significant impact on future GAAP financial results, and, as such, we also believe that any reconciliations provided would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to our results determined in accordance with GAAP, we believe non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating our operating performance. We use certain non-GAAP financial information, such as EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income (loss), and adjusted net earnings (loss) per share, which exclude certain non-operating or non-recurring items, including but not limited to, equity-based compensation expenses and related employer payroll taxes, acquisition and transaction expenses (income), litigation expenses, financial transaction fees and related expenses, tax receivable agreement remeasurement, impairment of goodwill and other assets, loss and expenses due to brand divestitures and wind down (excluding impairments), transformation initiative costs, and charges incurred in connection with our restructuring plan 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 measures 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.

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.

Footnotes

1. System-wide sales represent gross sales by all North America studios (which includes the United States, U.S. territories and Canada). System-wide sales include 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 weekly, 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 to include monthly sales for any traditional studio location in North America. If the studio has generated at least 13 months of consecutive positive sales and opened at least 13 calendar months ago as of any month within the measurement period, the respective comparable months will be included. We measure same store sales based solely upon monthly sales as derived through the designated point-of-sale system. 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. AUV is calculated by dividing sales during the applicable period for all studios contributing to AUV by the number of studios contributing to AUV. All traditional studio locations in North America are included in the AUV calculation, so long as they meet certain time since opening and sales criteria (as defined immediately below). In particular, AUV (LTM as of period end) and Quarterly AUV (run rate) are calculated as follows:

AUV (LTM as of period end) consists of the average sales for the trailing 12 calendar months for all traditional studio locations in North America that opened at least 13 calendar months ago as of the measurement date and that have generated positive sales for each of the last 13 calendar months as of the measurement date. Quarterly AUV (run rate) consists of average quarterly sales for all traditional studio locations in North America that had opened at least six calendar months ago as of the beginning of the respective quarter, and that have non-zero sales in the respective quarter (including nominal or negative sales figures; the only figures excluded are exact $0 amounts in the quarter), multiplied by four. We measure sales for AUV based solely upon monthly sales as derived through the designated point-of-sale system. AUV is impacted by changes in same store sales, studio openings, and studio closures. Management reviews AUV to assess studio economics.

4. Adjusted net income (loss) is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes certain amounts and is used to supplement net income (loss). Adjusted net income (loss) assumes that all net income (loss) is attributable to Xponential Fitness, Inc., which assumes the full exchange of all outstanding Class B common stock for shares of Class A common stock of Xponential Fitness, Inc., adjusted for the impact of certain non-cash and other items that we do not consider in our evaluation of ongoing operating performance. Adjusted net income (loss) per share, diluted, is calculated by dividing adjusted net income (loss) by the total weighted-average shares of Class A common stock outstanding plus any dilutive securities and assuming the full conversion of all outstanding Class B common stock. Total share count does not include potential future shares vested upon achieving certain earn-out thresholds.

5. 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 and related employer payroll taxes, acquisition and transaction expenses (income) (including change in contingent consideration and transaction bonuses), litigation expenses (consisting of legal and related fees for specific proceedings that arise outside of the ordinary course of our business net of insurance reimbursements), fees for financial transactions, such as secondary public offering expenses for which we do not receive proceeds (including bonuses paid to executives related to completion of such transactions) and other contemplated corporate transactions, expense related to the remeasurement of our TRA obligation, expense related to loss on impairment or write down of goodwill and other noncurrent assets, loss and expenses related to brand divestitures and wind down (including expenses directly related to the divested or wound down brands for arrangements that existed prior to divestiture or wind down), transformation initiative costs (primarily consisting of third-party professional consulting fees related to modifications of our business strategy and cost saving initiatives), other income (consisting of royalties received from divested brands), and restructuring and related charges incurred in connection with our restructuring plan that we do not believe reflect our underlying business performance and affect comparability.

Xponential Fitness (XPOF) Reports Q1 Loss, Misses Revenue Estimates
XPOF Xponential Fitness
FMP Stock News
Original source text
Xponential Fitness (XPOF - Free Report) came out with a quarterly loss of $0.04 per share versus the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.11. This compares to a loss of $0.2 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.

This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of -138.10%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this franchisor of boutique fitness brands would post a loss of $0.03 per share when it actually produced a loss of $0.91, delivering a surprise of -2933.33%.

Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates two times.

Xponential Fitness, which belongs to the Zacks Leisure and Recreation Services industry, posted revenues of $60.71 million for the quarter ended March 2026, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 6.07%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $76.88 million. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates two times over the last four quarters.

The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call.

Xponential Fitness shares have lost about 19.4% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 7.6%.

What's Next for Xponential Fitness?While Xponential Fitness has underperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock?

There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.

Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.

Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for Xponential Fitness was mixed. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to perform in line with the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.

It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is $0.12 on $65.46 million in revenues for the coming quarter and $0.51 on $265.98 million in revenues for the current fiscal year.

Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Leisure and Recreation Services is currently in the bottom 18% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.

United Parks & Resorts (PRKS - Free Report) , another stock in the same industry, has yet to report results for the quarter ended March 2026. The results are expected to be released on May 11.

This theme park operator is expected to post quarterly loss of $0.36 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -24.1%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 8.9% lower over the last 30 days to the current level.

United Parks & Resorts' revenues are expected to be $277.41 million, down 3.3% from the year-ago quarter.

The Best Trade Nobody’s Making Because It Doesn’t Involve a GPU
XPOF Xponential Fitness
FMP Stock News
Original source text
Listen to the audio version of this article (generated by AI).

The best non-AI trade of the decade might be hiding in your gym’s lobby.

Gen Z — the largest consumer cohort in history — is making a quiet but seismic spending decision. They are not going to bars or spending Friday nights out at restaurants. They are paying hundreds of dollars a month for premium gym memberships, boutique fitness classes, and recovery studios. And it has become the center of their social life.

Most investors are completely ignoring this shift — because it doesn’t involve a GPU. That’s exactly why it’s worth paying attention to. 

The Death of the Bar Tab: Gen Z’s Spending Shift Is Showing Up In the Data According to a February 2026 Bank of America report, gym-related spending among Gen Z and millennials is rising sharply as alcohol consumption continues to decline. 

A separate survey from Mintel found that 77% of U.S. Gen Z consumers say they are more focused on wellness than they were a year ago, with 30% spending more on gym memberships and classes in that time.

With over 3.4 million posts under #Pilates on Instagram alone and TikTok overflowing with gym routines, “what I eat in a day” videos, and run club recaps, fitness isn’t something Gen Z does. It’s something Gen Z is. 

This is a structural identity shift. And it matters enormously for investors.

Why This Is a Structural Identity Shift, Not a Fad This isn’t just about health. These premium gyms and boutique studios are functioning as social infrastructure — filling the community void once occupied by bars, restaurants, and even offices.

The data bears this out. According to Bank of America, Gen Z households spend 2.8 times more than baby boomers on fitness. Fitness club foot traffic has surpassed bars and pubs by 22 percentage points since 2021. Non-alcoholic beverage spending has outpaced alcoholic alternatives by 28 points over the same period. 

This is a generational reallocation of the “going out” budget — and it is accelerating. 

Spending on premium fitness carries a social ROI that a traditional gym membership never had. You don’t build your professional network at a $30/month big-box gym. But at a $300/month Equinox or a $40-per-class boutique studio? 

The switching costs and community lock-in are real. And the willingness to pay is, evidently, recession-resistant — these Gen Z consumers are spending $500-plus per month on fitness despite record rent burdens, student debt, and a brutal job market.

The Long Side: Three Wellness Stocks Built for This Generational Shift Against this backdrop, three names stand out as the highest-conviction expressions of this trend in public markets.

Life Time Group Holdings (LTH) is the purest play available. Life Time has spent years building what it calls the “athletic country club” — massive, spa-level facilities with pools, group fitness, personal training, and a social scene that makes showing up feel less like a chore and more like the best part of your day. This is exactly the premium fitness-as-social-hub model the data is validating. While Planet Fitness (PLNT) fights for the budget end of the market, Life Time owns the high ground. Xponential Fitness (XPOF) is the franchisor behind the entire boutique studio ecosystem — Club Pilates, CycleBar, Pure Barre, Row House, Rumble Boxing, and more. The asset-light franchise model captures the brand and community value without the real estate risk. XPOF has been beaten up — which, in a secular growth story, often means opportunity. Dutch Bros (BROS) is the least obvious pick but arguably the most interesting. The wellness trend isn’t just about where Gen Z works out — it’s about the entire morning ritual that replaces the hangover recovery of previous generations. Up at 5 a.m. for the gym, strong coffee or functional energy drink before the session, no bar the night before. With its customizable, high-energy beverages and protein coffee, Dutch Bros is built precisely for this demographic. When the macro headwinds eventually clear, BROS is positioned to be a significant beneficiary. The Short Side: Three Stocks Bleeding Out as Gen Z Abandons the Bar Tab The wellness shift isn’t just a spending increase — it’s a substitution trade. Gen Z is explicitly reallocating their “going out” budget away from specific industries. That creates high-conviction short opportunities that mirror the longs.

Boston Beer (SAM) is the cleanest short in the alcohol space. Craft beer was supposed to be the cool, premium alternative to mass-market beer — precisely the type of product that captures younger consumers. It isn’t working. Its hard seltzer brand Truly was supposed to be the Gen Z entry point. But there is no pivot available when the replacement cohort simply doesn’t drink. Dave & Buster’s (PLAY) is the most structurally compelling short in the entire playbook. D&B is selling the exact Friday night social experience that the data says Gen Z is abandoning. Its business model is: attract young people with arcade games, monetize heavily on alcohol sales. Both legs are under pressure simultaneously. And you cannot reposition a 40,000-square-foot arcade bar.  Bloomin’ Brands (BLMN) — owner of Outback Steakhouse — represents the casual dining category losing to boutique fitness social events. Bloomin’ carries the weakest balance sheet among major casual dining operators, making it most vulnerable to sustained structural headwinds. The Pair Trades: Three Self-Hedging Expressions of the Same Thesis If you want clean expression of this thesis:

Long LTH/Short SAM — premium fitness social hub directly cannibalizing craft beer’s Friday night occasion Long XPOF/Short PLAY — boutique studio franchisor vs. bar entertainment venue, competing for the same Gen Z “where do I go tonight” budget Long BROS/Short Molson Coors (TAP) — morning fitness culture functional beverage vs. traditional beer whose core demographic is literally aging into retirement Why This Is the Best Non-AI Trade In the Market Right Now Almost every macro conversation in 2025 and ’26 has circled back to AI infrastructure. And rightly so — the ‘Pax Silica’ buildout remains the dominant investment theme of this era. But AI infrastructure investing is crowded, expensive, and requires navigating geopolitical risk, tariff exposure, and supply chain complexity.

The wellness trade is different. It’s a consumer behavioral shift playing out in plain sight, being documented in real time by Bloomberg, Bank of America, and Mintel. It requires no technology adoption curve, regulatory approval, or transformer architecture expertise. The tailwinds — Gen Z’s identity-level commitment to wellness, structural alcohol decline, and the social collapse that made boutique gyms the new “third place” — are durable across multiple years.

That same cultural force that is minting new revenue at Life Time and Xponential is quietly bleeding out Boston Beer and Dave & Buster’s. Long/short, the thesis is self-hedging and structurally clean.

Gen Z replaced the entire nightlife scene with something better — and built a $300-a-month subscription around it. 

For investors willing to follow the smoothie instead of the beer, the setup has rarely been cleaner.

That instinct — looking where the crowd isn’t — tends to be where the most interesting opportunities live.

The companies I’m most focused on right now aren’t household names, don’t dominate financial media, and won’t show up on most investors’ radar until it’s too late to get in at the right price. That’s exactly why I think the opportunity is as clean as anything I’ve seen in years.

Here’s what I’m watching — and why I think the window is narrowing fast.
