Planet Fitness franchises and operates fitness centers under the Planet Fitness brand, which it presents as a welcoming, non-intimidating environment it calls the Judgement Free Zone. It ended 2025 with approximately 20.8 million members and 2,896 clubs, 2,604 owned by franchisees and 292 owned by the company, in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, Canada, Panama, Mexico, Australia and Spain. Planet Fitness, Inc. is a Delaware corporation formed on March 16, 2015, and its Class A common stock trades on the New York Stock Exchange. It reports three segments, Franchise, Corporate-owned clubs and Equipment.

Clubs and memberships

Its clubs are typically 20,000 square feet and are filled with Planet Fitness-branded cardio, circuit and strength-training equipment, with staff trainers who give members free fitness instruction in small groups. It leaves out amenities such as group exercise classes, pools, day care centers and juice bars to make room for equipment. Its Classic Card membership gives access to one club, while PF Black Card members can use all clubs, bring a guest on each visit and use areas with water massage beds, massage chairs, tanning and hot and cold recovery lounges. Members can also get discounts from partner brands through its mobile app and website, which it calls PF Perks.

Franchising and equipment

Its franchisees opened substantially all of its new clubs in 2025, and they must spend 7% of their monthly membership dues on local advertising in addition to contributing to a national advertising fund. Franchisees must buy fitness equipment from the company or its required vendors for new clubs and replace it approximately every five to nine years, and the Equipment segment sells that equipment to franchisee-owned clubs. Its member base is approximately 51% male, and approximately 22% of its clubs are in areas the U.S. government deems low income.

Read moreFree cash flow is operating cash flow less capital expenditure; the effective tax rate is income tax over pre-tax income; margins are the line over revenue. Gross profit is revenue less cost of revenue, and operating income is revenue less the company's own total costs, where the statement does not print those lines. Those four are arithmetic on the filed numbers; everything else is as filed. Money is in $ million as the company files it, or in $ billion by the switch above the tables; per share figures and share counts are as they are.
