The earnings call summary and Q&A indicate positive sentiment: strong brand engagement, new club growth, and optimistic financial guidance.

Systemwide Same Club Sales Growth 8.2% year-over-year increase. Approximately 70% of the growth was driven by rate growth, with the balance driven by net membership growth.

Equipment Segment Revenue 21.5% increase year-over-year, primarily driven by higher revenue from replacement equipment sales.

Franchise Model Focus: Reiterated commitment to an asset-light, highly franchised model, aiming to own approximately 10% of the fleet.
Online Membership Cancellation: The rollout of online membership cancellation functionality has led to an elevated attrition rate, which is expected to impact same-club sales growth in the second half of the year. This could affect revenue stability and member retention.
California Corporate Club Sale: The sale of corporate clubs in California to a franchisee is expected to reduce revenue by approximately $7 million and adjusted EBITDA by $2 million for the remainder of the year. This could impact the company's financial performance in the short term.
Macroeconomic Volatility: The continuing volatile macroeconomic environment is expected to contribute to a slowdown in same-club sales growth in the second half of the year, posing a risk to revenue and profitability.
Tariffs and Supply Chain: Although the company has implemented mitigation plans, tariffs and supply chain challenges remain a potential risk, particularly for equipment costs and availability.
Attrition Rate Post-Online Cancellation: The elevated attrition rate following the national rollout of online cancellation functionality could lead to higher member churn, impacting long-term revenue and membership growth.
Full Year 2025 Growth Targets: Revenue is expected to grow approximately 10%, adjusted EBITDA to grow approximately 10%, adjusted net income to increase in the 8% to 9% range, and adjusted net income per diluted share to grow in the 11% to 12% range. This includes the expectation of repurchasing approximately 1 million shares in 2025.
Same Club Sales Growth: The company has narrowed its same club sales growth guidance to approximately 6% for 2025, up from the previous range of 5% to 6%. This reflects the impact of the Classic Card price increase, elevated attrition rates due to the national rollout of online cancellation, and the continuing volatile macroeconomic environment.
