On the Q4 2025 earnings call on February 24, 2026, CFO Jay Stasz told investors: "We expect adjusted diluted EPS to increase between 9% to 10%." He also guided for approximately 9% total revenue growth over 2025 and outlined a $150 million share repurchase plan. CEO Colleen Keating described the Company's 2025 results as "a direct result of our discipline and focus on our 4 strategic imperatives." The Company later issued weaker FY 2026 earnings expectations, citing an extended equipment-replacement cycle, the sale of eight corporate-owned clubs in California, a $400 million debt refinancing, and weather-related disruptions affecting approximately 2,000 clubs.
The impact of these headwinds were not adequately emphasized on the February 24 call compared to later disclosures.
