Xponential Fitness, Inc. Announces Divestiture of STRIDE Fitness

Xponential Fitness, Inc. (NYSE: XPOF), the largest global franchisor of health and wellness brands, today announced it has completed the divestiture of its brand STRIDE Fitness to Stride Fitness Franchising, Inc., which is owned by Shaun Grove. Mr. Grove is the President of Rumble Boxing.

“We continuously evaluate our portfolio of brands to ensure profitable growth, optimize global customer experiences, and drive long-term value creation for our stakeholders,” said Anthony Geisler, CEO of Xponential Fitness, Inc.

Mr. Geisler continued, “We are pleased to transition the STRIDE brand to an operator with almost a decade of experience owning and operating franchises prior to joining Xponential. After considering the potential alternatives for STRIDE, we concluded that this transaction was the best option for Xponential and the STRIDE brand.”

In connection with this announcement, Xponential has begun a search for a successor for Mr. Grove as President of Rumble Boxing. Mr. Grove has agreed to remain in his current role as President of Rumble Boxing until a successor is identified.

As of December 31, 2023, STRIDE Fitness locations represented less than 1% of Xponential’s total studios open. The divestiture of STRIDE Fitness is not expected to materially impact revenue in 2024. Xponential did not receive any consideration for the divestiture and will provide transition support to the new owner.
