During the call, we will make forward-looking statements which involve a number of risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ materially from those forward-looking statements made today. There is a comprehensive discussion of Risk Factors in the company's SEC filings, which you are encouraged to review. The company will also discuss certain non-GAAP financial measures including adjusted net income, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted diluted EPS, net debt to adjusted EBITDA, or what we refer to as net debt leverage ratio, and free cash flow.์ด๋ฒˆ ์ปจํผ๋Ÿฐ์Šค ์ฝœ์—์„œ ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ๋ฏธ๋ž˜์˜ˆ์ธก ์ง„์ˆ ์„ ํ•  ์˜ˆ์ •์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ๋ฏธ๋ž˜์˜ˆ์ธก ์ง„์ˆ ์€ ์‹ค์ œ ๊ฒฐ๊ณผ๊ฐ€ ์˜ค๋Š˜ ๋ฐœํ‘œ๋œ ๋‚ด์šฉ๊ณผ ์‹ค์งˆ์ ์œผ๋กœ ๋‹ฌ๋ผ์งˆ ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ์—ฌ๋Ÿฌ ์œ„ํ—˜๊ณผ ๋ถˆํ™•์‹ค์„ฑ์„ ์ˆ˜๋ฐ˜ํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํšŒ์‚ฌ์˜ SEC ๊ณต์‹œ ์ž๋ฃŒ์—๋Š” ์œ„ํ—˜ ์š”์†Œ์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ํฌ๊ด„์ ์ธ ์„ค๋ช…์ด ๋‹ด๊ฒจ ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ด๋ฅผ ๊ฒ€ํ† ํ•ด ๋ณด์‹œ๊ธฐ๋ฅผ ๊ถŒ์žฅํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ ํšŒ์‚ฌ๋Š” ๋˜ํ•œ ํŠน์ • ๋น„์ผ๋ฐ˜ํšŒ๊ณ„๊ธฐ์ค€(Non-GAAP) ์žฌ๋ฌด ์ง€ํ‘œ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ๋…ผ์˜ํ•  ์˜ˆ์ •์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์—ฌ๊ธฐ์—๋Š” ์กฐ์ • ์ˆœ์ด์ต, ์กฐ์ • EBITDA, ์กฐ์ • ํฌ์„ ์ฃผ๋‹น์ˆœ์ด์ต(EPS), ์ˆœ๋ถ€์ฑ„ ๋Œ€ ์กฐ์ • EBITDA(์ €ํฌ๋Š” ์ด๋ฅผ ์ˆœ๋ถ€์ฑ„ ๋ ˆ๋ฒ„๋ฆฌ์ง€ ๋น„์œจ์ด๋ผ๊ณ  ๋ถ€๋ฆ…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค), ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์ž‰์—ฌํ˜„๊ธˆํ๋ฆ„ ๋“ฑ์ด ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
This information, along with the reconciliations to the most directly comparable GAAP measures are included, when applicable, in the company's earnings release issued this morning, our 8-K filed with the SEC, and on the Investor Relations Section of our website. With that, I will turn the call over to Erik. Erik Weaver

Thank you, Connor. We appreciate you joining us this morning. Starting with our first quarter results. Total revenue increased 18.3% to $706 million, driven by a 17.9% increase in our membership dues and enrollment fees, and an 18.7% increase in our in-center revenue.

We continue to see strong revenue growth in our clubs opened within the last 12 months, which are outpacing their anticipated revenue plans. In addition, we are seeing strong comparable center performance. Comparable center revenue was 12.9%, which increased from 11.1% in the prior year period. We continue to see robust comparable center revenue due to; first, an increase in our membership dues revenue, which is primarily a result of a full quarter benefit of legacy member price increases taken in the previous year. We took virtually no legacy price increase in the first quarter, and on average, legacy members continue to pay approximately $30 per month below our RAC rate.์ง€๋‚œ 12๊ฐœ์›” ์ด๋‚ด์— ์˜คํ”ˆํ•œ ํด๋Ÿฝ๋“ค์—์„œ ๊ฐ•๋ ฅํ•œ ๋งค์ถœ ์„ฑ์žฅ์ด ์ง€์†๋˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ด๋“ค ํด๋Ÿฝ์€ ์˜ˆ์ƒ ๋งค์ถœ ๊ณ„ํš์„ ์ƒํšŒํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋˜ํ•œ, ๊ฐ•๋ ฅํ•œ ๋™์ผ ์„ผํ„ฐ ์„ฑ๊ณผ๋ฅผ ๋ณด์ด๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋™์ผ ์„ผํ„ฐ ๋งค์ถœ์€ ์ „๋…„ ๋™๊ธฐ 11.1%์—์„œ ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ•œ 12.9%๋ฅผ ๊ธฐ๋กํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

And we also realized a benefit from new members joining at higher dues rates, replacing members who are paying a lower rate. For example, if we lose an existing member paying monthly dues of $178 and gain a new member at a current dues rate of $208, we realize a net revenue benefit. Second, our ramping clubs continue to perform to our expectations. And third, we continue to see strong performance in our in-center businesses, particularly in our dynamic personal training. With our strong first quarter, we raised our guidance for our comparable center revenue to be between 8.5% and 9.5% for the full year as we normalize towards our long-term revenue growth targets in the following quarters.๋˜ํ•œ, ๋” ๋‚ฎ์€ ํšŒ๋น„๋ฅผ ๋‚ด๋˜ ํšŒ์›๋“ค์„ ๋Œ€์ฒดํ•˜์—ฌ ๋” ๋†’์€ ํšŒ๋น„์œจ๋กœ ๊ฐ€์ž…ํ•˜๋Š” ์‹ ๊ทœ ํšŒ์›๋“ค๋กœ๋ถ€ํ„ฐ ํ˜œํƒ์„ ๋ณด์•˜์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์˜ˆ๋ฅผ ๋“ค์–ด, ์›” ํšŒ๋น„ 178๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋ฅผ ๋‚ด๋˜ ๊ธฐ์กด ํšŒ์›์„ ์žƒ๊ณ  ํ˜„์žฌ ํšŒ๋น„ 208๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋ฅผ ๋‚ด๋Š” ์‹ ๊ทœ ํšŒ์›์„ ํ™•๋ณดํ•˜๋ฉด, ์ˆœ๋งค์ถœ ์ฆ๊ฐ€ ํšจ๊ณผ๋ฅผ ์–ป๊ฒŒ ๋ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‘˜์งธ, ์„ฑ์žฅ ๊ถค๋„์— ์˜ค๋ฅธ ์ €ํฌ ํด๋Ÿฝ๋“ค์€ ๊ณ„์†ํ•ด์„œ ์ €ํฌ์˜ ๊ธฐ๋Œ€์— ๋ถ€์‘ํ•˜๋Š” ์‹ค์ ์„ ๋ณด์—ฌ์ฃผ๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์…‹์งธ, ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ์„ผํ„ฐ ๋‚ด ์‚ฌ์—… ๋ถ€๋ฌธ, ํŠนํžˆ ์—ญ๋™์ ์ธ ๊ฐœ์ธ ํŠธ๋ ˆ์ด๋‹์—์„œ ๊ณ„์†ํ•ด์„œ ๊ฐ•๋ ฅํ•œ ์‹ค์ ์„ ๋ณด๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ์˜ ๊ฐ•๋ ฅํ•œ 1๋ถ„๊ธฐ ์‹ค์ ์— ํž˜์ž…์–ด, ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ์—ฐ๊ฐ„ ๋™์ผ ์„ผํ„ฐ ๋งค์ถœ ๊ฐ€์ด๋˜์Šค๋ฅผ 8.5%์—์„œ 9.5% ์‚ฌ์ด๋กœ ์ƒํ–ฅ ์กฐ์ •ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Š” ๋‹ค์Œ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ์—๋Š” ์ €ํฌ์˜ ์žฅ๊ธฐ ๋งค์ถœ ์„ฑ์žฅ ๋ชฉํ‘œ์น˜๋กœ ์ •์ƒํ™”๋  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์˜ˆ์ƒ๋˜๊ธฐ ๋•Œ๋ฌธ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
Center memberships increased 3.0% compared to Q1 last year to end the quarter at more than 826,000. When combined with our on-hold memberships, total memberships ended the quarter at approximately 880,000. These membership totals are in-line with our strategy. As noted in our earnings release this morning, we are focused on our member experience and adding memberships with higher revenue and visits per membership. In addition, retention continues to pace at record levels and our in-center businesses are performing exceptionally well. Average monthly dues grew 11.8% year-over-year to $208. We continue to open locations in premium markets with strong demand and higher dues rates.์„ผํ„ฐ ํšŒ์› ์ˆ˜๋Š” ์ž‘๋…„ 1๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„ 3.0% ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ•˜์—ฌ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋ง ๊ธฐ์ค€ 826,000๋ช… ์ด์ƒ์„ ๊ธฐ๋กํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋ณด๋ฅ˜ ํšŒ์› ์ˆ˜๋ฅผ ํฌํ•จํ•˜๋ฉด ์ด ํšŒ์› ์ˆ˜๋Š” ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋ง ๊ธฐ์ค€ ์•ฝ 880,000๋ช…์— ๋‹ฌํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ํšŒ์› ์ˆ˜๋Š” ์ €ํฌ ์ „๋žต๊ณผ ๋ถ€ํ•ฉํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์˜ค๋Š˜ ์•„์นจ ์‹ค์  ๋ฐœํ‘œ์—์„œ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ ธ๋“ฏ์ด, ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ํšŒ์› ๊ฒฝํ—˜ ๊ฐœ์„ ๊ณผ ํšŒ์›๋‹น ๋” ๋†’์€ ์ˆ˜์ต ๋ฐ ๋ฐฉ๋ฌธ ํšŸ์ˆ˜๋ฅผ ์ฐฝ์ถœํ•˜๋Š” ํšŒ์› ์œ ์น˜์— ์ง‘์ค‘ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋˜ํ•œ, ํšŒ์› ์œ ์ง€์œจ์€ ๊ณ„์†ํ•ด์„œ ์‚ฌ์ƒ ์ตœ๊ณ  ์ˆ˜์ค€์„ ๊ธฐ๋กํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ €ํฌ ์„ผํ„ฐ ๋‚ด ์‚ฌ์—…๋“ค๋„ ๋งค์šฐ ์ข‹์€ ์„ฑ๊ณผ๋ฅผ ๋ณด์ด๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์›” ํ‰๊ท  ํšŒ๋น„๋Š” ์ „๋…„ ๋Œ€๋น„ 11.8% ์„ฑ์žฅํ•˜์—ฌ 208๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋ฅผ ๊ธฐ๋กํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ๋†’์€ ์ˆ˜์š”์™€ ๋” ๋†’์€ ํšŒ๋น„ ์ฑ…์ •์ด ๊ฐ€๋Šฅํ•œ ํ”„๋ฆฌ๋ฏธ์—„ ์‹œ์žฅ์— ๊ณ„์†ํ•ด์„œ ์ง€์ ์„ ํ™•์žฅํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
Average revenue per center membership was $844, an increase of 13.3% from the prior year quarter. Net income was $76.1 million, an increase of 206%, and adjusted net income was $88.1 million, an increase of 189% from the prior year quarter. We received an income tax benefit of $14.6 million related to the one-time exercise of stock options by our CEO, which is now factored into our updated guidance. For the remaining quarters of fiscal year 2025, we expect net income to benefit from reduced interest expense as a result of entering into the fixed interest rate swap of under 6% on our term loan fee.์„ผํ„ฐ ๋ฉค๋ฒ„์‹ญ๋‹น ํ‰๊ท  ๋งค์ถœ์€ 844๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋กœ, ์ „๋…„ ๋™๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„ 13.3% ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ˆœ์ด์ต์€ 7,610๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋กœ 206% ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ–ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์กฐ์ • ์ˆœ์ด์ต์€ 8,810๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋กœ ์ „๋…„ ๋™๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„ 189% ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‹น์‚ฌ๋Š” CEO์˜ ์ผํšŒ์„ฑ ์Šคํ†ก์˜ต์…˜ ํ–‰์‚ฌ์— ๋”ฐ๋ฅธ 1,460๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ ๊ทœ๋ชจ์˜ ๋ฒ•์ธ์„ธ ํ˜œํƒ์„ ๋ฐ›์•˜์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ด ๊ธˆ์•ก์€ ํ˜„์žฌ ์—…๋ฐ์ดํŠธ๋œ ๊ฐ€์ด๋˜์Šค์— ๋ฐ˜์˜๋˜์–ด ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 2025 ํšŒ๊ณ„์—ฐ๋„์˜ ๋‚จ์€ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋™์•ˆ, ๋‹น์‚ฌ๋Š” ๊ธฐ๊ฐ„ ๋Œ€์ถœ(term loan)์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด 6% ๋ฏธ๋งŒ์˜ ๊ณ ์ • ๊ธˆ๋ฆฌ ์Šค์™‘ ๊ณ„์•ฝ์„ ์ฒด๊ฒฐํ•จ์— ๋”ฐ๋ผ ์ด์ž ๋น„์šฉ์ด ๊ฐ์†Œํ•˜์—ฌ ์ˆœ์ด์ต์ด ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ•  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์˜ˆ์ƒํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
Adjusted EBITDA was $191.6 million, an increase of 31.2%, and our adjusted EBITDA margin of 27.1% increased 260 basis points versus the first quarter 2024. Net cash provided by operating activities increased approximately 103% to $184 million as compared to the first quarter 2024. This increase was largely a result in income from operations, as well as timing of cash interest in the first quarter 2025. For the fourth consecutive quarter, we achieved positive free cash flow. Free cash flow was approximately $41 million, and we had no sale leaseback proceeds in the first quarter.Adjusted EBITDA๋Š” 1์–ต 9,160๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋กœ, 31.2% ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์šฐ๋ฆฌ์˜ ์กฐ์ • EBITDA ๋งˆ์ง„์€ 27.1%๋กœ, 2024๋…„ 1๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„ 260bp(๋ฒ ์ด์‹œ์Šค ํฌ์ธํŠธ) ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์˜์—…ํ™œ๋™ ํ˜„๊ธˆํ๋ฆ„์€ 2024๋…„ 1๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„ ์•ฝ 103% ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ•œ 1์–ต 8,400๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ๋ฅผ ๊ธฐ๋กํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ์ฆ๊ฐ€๋Š” ์ฃผ๋กœ ์˜์—…์ด์ต๊ณผ 2025๋…„ 1๋ถ„๊ธฐ ํ˜„๊ธˆ ์ด์ž ์ง€๊ธ‰ ์‹œ์ ์˜ ์˜ํ–ฅ์ด์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 4๋ถ„๊ธฐ ์—ฐ์†์œผ๋กœ ์šฐ๋ฆฌ๋Š” ํ”Œ๋Ÿฌ์Šค ์ž‰์—ฌํ˜„๊ธˆํ๋ฆ„์„ ๋‹ฌ์„ฑํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ž‰์—ฌํ˜„๊ธˆํ๋ฆ„์€ ์•ฝ 4,100๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ์˜€์œผ๋ฉฐ, 1๋ถ„๊ธฐ์—๋Š” ๋งค๊ฐ ํ›„ ์žฌ์ž„๋Œ€(sale leaseback) ์ˆ˜์ต์ด ์—†์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Before I conclude my remarks, I will give a brief comment on how we look at our exposure to tariffs. We have completed a review of key areas of our company that could be subject to tariffs, including construction, equipment, and retail, and we currently do not expect there to be a significant impact. As tariff policies are still evolving, we are diligently monitoring the situation to assess and respond as needed. After a strong first quarter, we have deleveraged our balance sheet to a net debt leverage ratio of 2.0 times.์•ฝ 1์–ต 5์ฒœ๋งŒ ๋‹ฌ๋Ÿฌ ๊ทœ๋ชจ์˜ ๋ถ€๋™์‚ฐ 3๊ฑด์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ์„ธ์ผ์ฆˆ์•ค๋ฆฌ์Šค๋ฐฑ(sale leaseback) ํˆฌ์ž ์˜ํ–ฅ์„œ๋ฅผ ์ฒด๊ฒฐํ–ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, 2๋ถ„๊ธฐ์— ์™„๋ฃŒ๋  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์˜ˆ์ƒํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ œ ๋ง์”€ ๋งˆ๋ฌด๋ฆฌํ•˜๊ธฐ ์ „์—, ๊ด€์„ธ ๋…ธ์ถœ์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ์ €ํฌ์˜ ๊ฒฌํ•ด๋ฅผ ๊ฐ„๋žตํžˆ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‹น์‚ฌ๋Š” ๊ฑด์„ค, ์žฅ๋น„, ์†Œ๋งค ๋ถ€๋ฌธ์„ ํฌํ•จํ•˜์—ฌ ๊ด€์„ธ ๋ถ€๊ณผ ๋Œ€์ƒ์ด ๋  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ์ฃผ์š” ์‚ฌ์—… ๋ถ€๋ฌธ์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ๊ฒ€ํ† ๋ฅผ ์™„๋ฃŒํ–ˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ํ˜„์žฌ๋กœ์„œ๋Š” ์ค‘๋Œ€ํ•œ ์˜ํ–ฅ์€ ์—†์„ ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์˜ˆ์ƒํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ด€์„ธ ์ •์ฑ…์ด ๊ณ„์†ํ•ด์„œ ๋ณ€ํ™”ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๊ธฐ ๋•Œ๋ฌธ์—, ํ•„์š”์— ๋”ฐ๋ผ ์ƒํ™ฉ์„ ํ‰๊ฐ€ํ•˜๊ณ  ๋Œ€์‘ํ•˜๊ธฐ ์œ„ํ•ด ๋ฉด๋ฐ€ํžˆ ์ฃผ์‹œํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ฒฌ์กฐํ•œ 1๋ถ„๊ธฐ ์‹ค์  ์ดํ›„, ๋‹น์‚ฌ๋Š” ๋Œ€์ฐจ๋Œ€์กฐํ‘œ์˜ ๋ถ€์ฑ„๋ฅผ ์ถ•์†Œํ•˜์—ฌ ์ˆœ๋ถ€์ฑ„ ๋ ˆ๋ฒ„๋ฆฌ์ง€ ๋น„์œจ์„ 2.0๋ฐฐ๋กœ ๋‚ฎ์ท„์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
We have clear visibility into our cash interest expense for the next three years, having fixed the interest rate on our entire term loan to below 6%, and with over 30 years of operating experience, we believe we are well-positioned to navigate any macroeconomic conditions. With that, I will now pass the call over to Bahram. Bahram? Bahram Akradi

Thank you, Erik. We had a great start to the year, and the business has continued to perform well. We have raised our revenue and adjusted EBITDA guidance, but only modestly in recognition of uncertainty in the macroeconomic environment.

Our focus in the near term is to maintain our very strong balance sheet position and positive free cash flow as we grow the business. Our clubs continue to experience increased traffic with many at or near optimal levels. Visits in our comparable centers are up 4.7% versus the first quarter of last year. Many clubs are using waitlists as a mean to protect the member experience. The large majority of our first quarter membership ads were full dues-paying customers. This strategy is reflected in our results, including record visits per membership and retention, record in-center performance and revenue per membership, and record total revenue and adjusted EBITDA.๋‹จ๊ธฐ์ ์œผ๋กœ ์ €ํฌ์˜ ์ฃผ์•ˆ์ ์€ ์‚ฌ์—…์„ ์„ฑ์žฅ์‹œํ‚ค๋ฉด์„œ ๋งค์šฐ ๊ฒฌ๊ณ ํ•œ ์žฌ๋ฌด ์ƒํƒœ์™€ ํ”Œ๋Ÿฌ์Šค ์ž‰์—ฌ ํ˜„๊ธˆ ํ๋ฆ„์„ ์œ ์ง€ํ•˜๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ ํด๋Ÿฝ๋“ค์€ ๊ณ„์†ํ•ด์„œ ๋ฐฉ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ์ฆ๊ฐ€๋ฅผ ๊ฒฝํ—˜ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ๋งŽ์€ ํด๋Ÿฝ์ด ์ตœ์  ์ˆ˜์ค€์— ๋„๋‹ฌํ–ˆ๊ฑฐ๋‚˜ ๊ทธ์— ๊ทผ์ ‘ํ•œ ์ƒํƒœ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋™์ผ ์ ํฌ ๊ธฐ์ค€ ๋ฐฉ๋ฌธ ํšŸ์ˆ˜๋Š” ์ž‘๋…„ 1๋ถ„๊ธฐ ๋Œ€๋น„ 4.7% ์ฆ๊ฐ€ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋งŽ์€ ํด๋Ÿฝ์ด ํšŒ์› ๊ฒฝํ—˜์„ ๋ณดํ˜ธํ•˜๊ธฐ ์œ„ํ•œ ์ˆ˜๋‹จ์œผ๋กœ ๋Œ€๊ธฐ์ž ๋ช…๋‹จ์„ ํ™œ์šฉํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 1๋ถ„๊ธฐ ์‹ ๊ทœ ํšŒ์› ๊ฐ€์ž…์˜ ๋Œ€๋‹ค์ˆ˜๋Š” ์ •ํšŒ์› ๊ณ ๊ฐ๋“ค์ด์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Ÿฌํ•œ ์ „๋žต์€ ์ €ํฌ ์‹ค์ ์— ๋ฐ˜์˜๋˜์–ด, ํšŒ์›๋‹น ๋ฐฉ๋ฌธ ํšŸ์ˆ˜ ๋ฐ ์œ ์ง€์œจ, ์„ผํ„ฐ ๋‚ด ์„ฑ๊ณผ ๋ฐ ํšŒ์›๋‹น ๋งค์ถœ, ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์ด ๋งค์ถœ๊ณผ ์กฐ์ • EBITDA ๋ชจ๋‘ ์‚ฌ์ƒ ์ตœ๊ณ ์น˜๋ฅผ ๊ธฐ๋กํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.
We have a robust pipeline of club growth, and we expect to deliver 10 to 12 clubs per year. We will continue to use cash flow from business as well as proceeds from sell leasebacks to pay for our growth. We will maintain the strength of our balance sheet and our current debt levels while growing revenue and adjusted EBITDA. This aligns with our focus of achieving and maintaining a strong BB credit. We are well positioned to operate in any macroeconomic conditions. We are also pleased with the progress in our three additional growth areas, including LT Digital, which is already over 2 million subscribers, MIORA, and LTH. With that, we are ready to take your questions.์ €ํฌ๋Š” ํด๋Ÿฝ ์„ฑ์žฅ์„ ์œ„ํ•œ ๊ฒฌ๊ณ ํ•œ ํŒŒ์ดํ”„๋ผ์ธ์„ ํ™•๋ณดํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์—ฐ๊ฐ„ 10๊ฐœ์—์„œ 12๊ฐœ์˜ ํด๋Ÿฝ์„ ๊ฐœ์„คํ•  ๊ฒƒ์œผ๋กœ ์˜ˆ์ƒํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ์„ฑ์žฅ์„ ์œ„ํ•œ ์ž๊ธˆ์œผ๋กœ ์‚ฌ์—… ํ˜„๊ธˆ ํ๋ฆ„๊ณผ ๋”๋ถˆ์–ด ์„ธ์ผ์ฆˆ์•ค๋ฆฌ์Šค๋ฐฑ(sell leasebacks) ๋งค๊ฐ ๋Œ€๊ธˆ์„ ๊ณ„์†ํ•ด์„œ ํ™œ์šฉํ•  ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋งค์ถœ๊ณผ ์กฐ์ • EBITDA๋ฅผ ์„ฑ์žฅ์‹œํ‚ค๋Š” ๋™์‹œ์—, ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ์žฌ๋ฌด ๊ฑด์ „์„ฑ๊ณผ ํ˜„์žฌ ๋ถ€์ฑ„ ์ˆ˜์ค€์„ ์œ ์ง€ํ•  ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Š” ๊ฐ•๋ ฅํ•œ BB ์‹ ์šฉ ๋“ฑ๊ธ‰์„ ๋‹ฌ์„ฑํ•˜๊ณ  ์œ ์ง€ํ•˜๋ ค๋Š” ์ €ํฌ์˜ ์ค‘์  ์‚ฌํ•ญ๊ณผ ์ผ์น˜ํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ์–ด๋–ค ๊ฑฐ์‹œ ๊ฒฝ์ œ ์ƒํ™ฉ์—์„œ๋„ ์‚ฌ์—…์„ ์˜์œ„ํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋„๋ก ์ž˜ ์ค€๋น„๋˜์–ด ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋˜ํ•œ, ์ด๋ฏธ 2๋ฐฑ๋งŒ ๋ช… ์ด์ƒ์˜ ๊ตฌ๋…์ž๋ฅผ ํ™•๋ณดํ•œ LT ๋””์ง€ํ„ธ๊ณผ MIORA, LTH๋ฅผ ํฌํ•จํ•œ ์„ธ ๊ฐ€์ง€ ์ถ”๊ฐ€ ์„ฑ์žฅ ์˜์—ญ์˜ ์ง„์ „์—๋„ ๋งŒ์กฑํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด์ œ ์งˆ๋ฌธ์„ ๋ฐ›๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

John Heinbockel: How broad now? How many clubs have waitlists? Where can that go? Can most of them have them? I know on cases you've charged, a country club-like joint fee. How broad is that? And then, Bahram, the question is I know the waitlist, you're trying to limit traffic as you've got capacity on visitation. I guess there's no good way to increase capacity in a club, correct? It's not like you can do an easy remodel and accommodate more members. Is there anything to be done on that front?**John Heinbockel:** ํ˜„์žฌ ์–ผ๋งˆ๋‚˜ ๊ด‘๋ฒ”์œ„ํ•˜๊ฒŒ ์ ์šฉ๋˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋‚˜์š”? ์–ผ๋งˆ๋‚˜ ๋งŽ์€ ํด๋Ÿฝ์ด ๋Œ€๊ธฐ์ž ๋ช…๋‹จ(waitlist)์„ ๊ฐ€์ง€๊ณ  ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ๊ทธ ๋ฒ”์œ„๊ฐ€ ์–ด๋””๊นŒ์ง€ ํ™•๋Œ€๋  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์„๊นŒ์š”? ๋Œ€๋ถ€๋ถ„์˜ ํด๋Ÿฝ์ด ๋Œ€๊ธฐ์ž ๋ช…๋‹จ์„ ๊ฐ€์งˆ ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์„๊นŒ์š”? ์ œ๊ฐ€ ์•Œ๊ธฐ๋กœ๋Š” ์ผ๋ถ€ ํด๋Ÿฝ์—์„œ ์ปจํŠธ๋ฆฌํด๋Ÿฝ(country club)๊ณผ ์œ ์‚ฌํ•œ ๊ณต๋™ ํšŒ๋น„(joint fee)๋ฅผ ๋ถ€๊ณผํ•˜๊ณ  ๊ณ„์‹ ๋ฐ์š”, ๊ทธ๊ฒƒ์€ ์–ผ๋งˆ๋‚˜ ๊ด‘๋ฒ”์œ„ํ•˜๊ฒŒ ์ ์šฉ๋˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋‚˜์š”?

Bahram Akradi: Let's handle this once and for all, because I'm sure this will be the number one question for everyone. We are extremely pleased with all the statistics of the company and everything working the way we want to. We have experienced this year an increased level of visits. We still also measure number of swipes or number of visits per club. A number of visits per club were up over a very healthy number in the past last years. We have opportunistically focused on shutting down any sort of a membership that would come with any kind of a discount from a third-party payers in some clubs. Some of the new clubs don't have any opportunity for sort of Aurora memberships. And we really have gained the memberships we wanted to gain as members who are joining with the full dues-paying customers. So, the focus of the business has been, as always, nothing changed, is to manage the clubs, adapt the clubs, so that we deliver the ultimate experience. The clear indication that our strategy is working is that we are basically getting the highest revenue per memberships. We're getting the highest in-center revenue. Our in-center revenue, as Erik mentioned, in the first quarter of this year outperformed the in-center revenue of last year's same quarter as a percentage of our revenue. So, I think the only strong message that I can give you guys is that we are executing the strategy we've always executed. Member point of view first. And when the clubs feel like they're being pinched, the peak hours of the clubs are like at the point where your experience might start getting pinched. We basically put the club on a wait list and we definitely have the opportunity to take that waitlist both ways. Its wait list for the people who join and pay the full dues or a waitlist for the people who would join through the third party insurance programs. And we basically execute one or the other or both. And this year, we definitively took steps to make sure more of the memberships we gained in the first quarter came from full dues paying customers rather than the third party customers. So, that's really the only major issue and the major point in this call. Otherwise, everything else is basically moving exactly.

John Heinbockel: Let me just transition right to the club pipeline, because that also you had more clubs that takes pressure off of the existing locations. So, the pipelines, we're getting visibility on that. You talked about 10 to 12. What's the organization's capacity to do more than that, right? Because I think the opportunities you're going to get from landlords and ground up would eventually exceed 10 to 12.What's your capacity to do more than that if you could?**John Heinbockel:** ํด๋Ÿฝ ํŒŒ์ดํ”„๋ผ์ธ(club pipeline)์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์‹ ๊ทœ ํด๋Ÿฝ์ด ๋Š˜์–ด๋‚˜๋ฉด ๊ธฐ์กด ์ง€์ ๋“ค์˜ ๋ถ€๋‹ด์„ ๋œ์–ด์ฃผ๋Š” ํšจ๊ณผ๋„ ์žˆ๊ธฐ ๋•Œ๋ฌธ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด ํŒŒ์ดํ”„๋ผ์ธ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด์„œ๋Š” ํ˜„์žฌ ๊ฐ€์‹œ์„ฑ์ด ํ™•๋ณด๋˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋Š” ์ƒํ™ฉ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Bahram Akradi: As the gestation of these clubs is longer, I can tell you that 10 to 12 for โ€˜25 is just the right number. For โ€˜26, we have the opportunity to do 10 to 12. We have the opportunity to do more. We are very, very carefully studying all the impacts of different scenarios that can happen with the economy. As you guys might have heard right now, this is the first time that some of the new homebuilders are having a tough time moving inventory. That type of impact is a positive impact for us in the sense that once some of the construction, I mean this is spotty by market-by-market, some markets because of government contracts like Phoenix, et cetera, they're not impacted. Most markets, you'll be able to do the construction significantly better if you take the time to re-bid before you have started construction. So we are methodically going through where the opportunities are. We can continue to deliver 10 to 12. And if the economy gets robust and the volatilities settle down that we are dealing with, we can step on the gas and do more. So otherwise, my approach, our approach is to focus on having a balance sheet that allows us to take advantage of the opportunities that will arise if the economy is tough or opportunities that rise if economy is robust. It's sort of a mathematical hedge so that if it's heads up, we win, if its tails up, we win. Ad with that, I think I have given you a very clear answer. For 2026, we could deliver more clubs if we want to.**Bahram Akradi:** ์ด ํด๋Ÿฝ๋“ค์˜ ์ค€๋น„ ๊ธฐ๊ฐ„(gestation period)์ด ๋” ๊ธธ๊ธฐ ๋•Œ๋ฌธ์—, 2025๋…„์—๋Š” 10๊ฐœ์—์„œ 12๊ฐœ๊ฐ€ ์ ์ ˆํ•œ ์ˆซ์ž๋ผ๊ณ  ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆด ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 2026๋…„์˜ ๊ฒฝ์šฐ, 10๊ฐœ์—์„œ 12๊ฐœ๋ฅผ ํ•  ๊ธฐํšŒ๊ฐ€ ์žˆ์œผ๋ฉฐ, ๊ทธ ์ด์ƒ๋„ ํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ๊ธฐํšŒ๊ฐ€ ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Brian Nagel: So first question I want to ask. Erik, you talked in your prepared comments, you mentioned just the pricing. Clearly, as we see every quarter, Life Time has done a great job of monetizing memberships. The question I have is with regard to the actions you took in Q1, if I heard you correctly, you didn't raise dues on legacy members. Just to make sure I heard that correctly. But was that planned? How should we think about that effort going forward?**Brian Nagel:** ๊ทธ๋Ÿผ, ์ œ๊ฐ€ ๋จผ์ € ์—ฌ์ญค๋ณด๊ณ  ์‹ถ์€ ์งˆ๋ฌธ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์—๋ฆญ๋‹˜, ์ค€๋น„๋œ ๋ฐœ์–ธ์—์„œ ๊ฐ€๊ฒฉ ์ฑ…์ •์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ์–ธ๊ธ‰ํ•˜์…จ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋งค ๋ถ„๊ธฐ๋งˆ๋‹ค ํ™•์ธํ•˜๋“ฏ์ด, Life Time์€ ํšŒ์›๊ถŒ ์ˆ˜์ตํ™”(monetizing memberships)๋ฅผ ์ •๋ง ์ž˜ ํ•ด์˜ค๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ œ๊ฐ€ ๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์‹ถ์€ ์งˆ๋ฌธ์€ 1๋ถ„๊ธฐ(Q1)์— ์ทจํ•˜์‹  ์กฐ์น˜์™€ ๊ด€๋ จํ•˜์—ฌ, ์ œ๊ฐ€ ์ œ๋Œ€๋กœ ์ดํ•ดํ–ˆ๋‹ค๋ฉด ๊ธฐ์กด ํšŒ์›(legacy members)์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ํšŒ๋น„ ์ธ์ƒ(raise dues)์€ ์—†์—ˆ๋‹ค๋Š” ์ ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ œ๊ฐ€ ์ •ํ™•ํžˆ ๋“ค์—ˆ๋Š”์ง€ ํ™•์ธํ•˜๊ณ  ์‹ถ์–ด์„œ์š”. ๊ทธ๋Ÿฐ๋ฐ ๊ทธ๊ฒƒ์ด ๊ณ„ํš๋œ ๊ฒƒ์ด์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๊นŒ? ์•ž์œผ๋กœ ๊ทธ๋Ÿฌํ•œ ๋…ธ๋ ฅ์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ์–ด๋–ป๊ฒŒ ์ƒ๊ฐํ•ด์•ผ ํ• ๊นŒ์š”?
Erik Weaver: Yeah. That's right. We didn't take a lot of legacy pricing in Q1. That was our intention. We are obviously monitoring the macro very closely. And so a lot of what we saw was legacy price increases that were from last year and those members are lapping a full quarter, right. The other important impact to understand is the churn. When somebody attrits out, they attrit out at a lower rate typically. And so then the new member joins in at a higher rate. And so that was really most of what we call pricing benefit that we saw in Q1. So not a lot from legacy in this quarter.**Erik Weaver:** ๋„ค, ๋งž์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 1๋ถ„๊ธฐ์—๋Š” ๊ธฐ์กด ๊ณ„์•ฝ ๊ฐ€๊ฒฉ ์กฐ์ • (legacy pricing)์„ ๋งŽ์ด ํ•˜์ง€ ์•Š์•˜์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๊ฒƒ์ด ์ €ํฌ์˜ ์˜๋„์˜€์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Bahram Akradi: Yeah. We have had a schedule on when we roll out legacy price increases. That was not planned out for the first quarter. It was planned out for second quarter, for April, May, June. We are doing exactly -- executing exactly our plan. As I've mentioned to you, it's extremely sophisticated programming, AI driven on how we do this. That's not something we're going to get into the details of that with anybody, but we are still experiencing best retention rates than we have ever experienced in history of the company.**Bahram Akradi:** ๋„ค, ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ๊ธฐ์กด ์š”๊ธˆ ์ธ์ƒ(legacy price increases)์„ ์–ธ์ œ ์‹œํ–‰ํ• ์ง€์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ์ผ์ •์„ ๊ฐ€์ง€๊ณ  ์žˆ์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๊ฒƒ์€ 1๋ถ„๊ธฐ์—๋Š” ๊ณ„ํš๋˜์–ด ์žˆ์ง€ ์•Š์•˜์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. 2๋ถ„๊ธฐ, ์ฆ‰ 4์›”, 5์›”, 6์›”๋กœ ๊ณ„ํš๋˜์–ด ์žˆ์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ๊ณ„ํš๋Œ€๋กœ ์ •ํ™•ํžˆ ์ง„ํ–‰ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Alex Perry: Hi. Thanks for taking my questions here and congrats on a strong quarter. I just wanted to talk about the guidance a little bit. How much of the same store center raise was 1Q flow through versus higher expectations in 2Q through 4Q? I think the guide implies a slowdown in comps in sort of the remainder of the year. What's the driver here? Is that just an element of conservatism? And then, have you seen any impact to your business to joins or cancels as we've seen consumer confidence soften a bit here as of late?

Bahram Akradi: Yeah. I think what we are seeing right now is a stronger retention and a strong in-center spend. That means the customer who is inside of Lifetime is extremely happy. They are having more visits into the club, they are using the clubs more, they are doing their in-center purchases, and they are staying with us longer, okay. That's all positive news. The memberships coming in, which is an extremely small piece of our business. That, when you think about one month's worth of new membership sales versus last month versus the overall revenue impact, it's very, very, very small. We are seeing a sort of a customer who is a little more thoughtful about the timing of when they join. Maybe they wait a little longer before they start. We are seeing some of that conservative in that, but that is such a small piece of our business that I don't think it has an immediate impact on our numbers. But I think that if that type of situation continues, where you have a customer holding back for the next 12 months in a row, then you are going to see a little more impact on the business. Therefore, our guidance is guarded for this potential macroeconomic volatility, customer sensitivity sustaining for a long period of time. Does that answer your question?**Bahram Akradi:** ๋„ค, ํ˜„์žฌ ์ €ํฌ๊ฐ€ ๋ณด๊ณ  ์žˆ๋Š” ๊ฒƒ์€ ๊ณ ๊ฐ ์œ ์ง€์œจ(retention rate)์ด ๋†’์•„์ง€๊ณ  ์„ผํ„ฐ ๋‚ด ์ง€์ถœ(in-center spend)์ด ๊ฐ•์„ธ๋ฅผ ๋ณด์ธ๋‹ค๋Š” ์ ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด๋Š” ๋ผ์ดํ”„ํƒ€์ž„(Lifetime)์„ ์ด์šฉํ•˜๋Š” ๊ณ ๊ฐ๋“ค์ด ๋งค์šฐ ๋งŒ์กฑํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋‹ค๋Š” ์˜๋ฏธ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํด๋Ÿฝ ๋ฐฉ๋ฌธ ํšŸ์ˆ˜๊ฐ€ ๋Š˜๊ณ , ํด๋Ÿฝ์„ ๋” ๋งŽ์ด ์ด์šฉํ•˜๋ฉฐ, ์„ผํ„ฐ ๋‚ด ๊ตฌ๋งค๋ฅผ ํ•˜๊ณ , ์ €ํฌ์™€ ๋” ์˜ค๋ž˜ ํ•จ๊ป˜ํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ด ๋ชจ๋“  ๊ฒƒ์ด ๊ธ์ •์ ์ธ ์†Œ์‹์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

You are seeing some things coming in like 30%, 40% higher, but those things just don't matter to us. And we're talking about buying $60,000, $200,000 worth of T-shirts that we use for athletic events. So itโ€™s just not โ€“ we are not a company that is heavily impacted directly by these events. And there are all the type of things we are doing on continuation of value engineering and how we're designing our new prototypes that we have, a dozen of them, that we basically choose which one works in what market.: We're continually working on having flexibility to either use the steel or concrete when we build those. We have both types of plans. I mean, we are working to make sure we mitigate any of those impacts. And at this point, I can tell you we are super comfortable that we can bring the new boxes in at or better prices than last year despite changes in that. Furthermore, it's a two-way street. If the economy does actually get a little more headwind, you hit recession, housing slows down, the contractors who basically before were like, this is the price, take it or leave it. I have too many jobs. They basically start begging for work. And then you can basically get them to do the work for 5% overhead and profit instead of 20% overhead and profit. So, we can manage that. I don't believe we are in a position to worry about those type of things. We are going to continue to work on how we basically mitigate any of those impacts. And as Erik said and I said, we have been anticipating for two years. We've been wrong about the headwind. Sometimes, we're going to switch from tailwind to a headwind. And we've been preparing and preparing and preparing and preparing for what if we switch from sort of a tailwind economy to a headwind economy. Our strategy is to win in either kind. And so based on our strong balance sheet, we just mentioned $150 million of sell lease back, definite agreement to basically close by this year, by the second quarter. Debt levels are at $1.5 billion without that cash coming in. So our growth is going to be funded pretty much entirely with either proceeds, whether we're taking the money from sale lease back and putting it right back into new builds, or we just basically from the substantial free cash flow the company is generating on its own. So, we feel like being in a super, super strong financial position allows us to basically negotiate better, get more deals, get better deals, be the game changer for the residential buildings. So, we feel like we are stacked correctly for any kind of a wind, head or tail.**You are seeing some things coming in like 30%, 40% higher, but those things just don't matter to us.

Megan Alexander: Hey, good morning. I wanted to start with a question on the balance sheet and then I have a quick follow-up to one of Alex's questions. You took your leverage target down. You are now talking about under 2x versus 2.25x last quarter. You're going to get some sale lease back proceeds here in the second quarter, and leverage is already at 2x, so it should be pretty easy for you to stay under there. Bahram, you talked about wanting to have a strong balance sheet to give you some flexibility, but I guess theoretically, let's just say the macro remains volatile and maybe it doesn't make sense to accelerate club opens. How does the strategy around capital allocation evolve? And do you start to think about other uses of cash like something like buybacks or would you rather just sit on higher cash balances and lower the leverage and build some ammo for when things settle down?**Megan Alexander:** ์•ˆ๋…•ํ•˜์„ธ์š”. ๋จผ์ € ๋Œ€์ฐจ๋Œ€์กฐํ‘œ(balance sheet) ๊ด€๋ จ ์งˆ๋ฌธ๋ถ€ํ„ฐ ๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ณ , ์ด์–ด์„œ Alex์˜ ์งˆ๋ฌธ ์ค‘ ํ•˜๋‚˜์— ๋Œ€ํ•ด ๊ฐ„๋‹จํžˆ ์ถ”๊ฐ€ ์งˆ๋ฌธ์„ ๋“œ๋ฆฌ๊ฒ ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Bahram Akradi: Yeah, definitely the latter. We are not going to -- we're not Amazon, we're not Apple, we're not JP Morgan. We're a very strong good-sized mid-cap company. We need to be thoughtful about our balance sheet and make sure that works to our strength. So, we're going to have the ability, at least with half of our development, which is the ground up, to start a couple months later if we want to. We have the ability to start faster, because we have the permit. We want to have the full flexibility to basically navigate through how the world shakes up in here. I feel super strong. I'm just telling you, I feel really, really, really strong about how we are positioned right now. We basically have put the company in a situation where we have every option.**Bahram Akradi:** ๋„ค, ํ™•์‹คํžˆ ํ›„์ž์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ์•„๋งˆ์กด(Amazon)์ด๋‚˜ ์• ํ”Œ(Apple), JP๋ชจ๊ฑด(JP Morgan) ๊ฐ™์€ ๊ธฐ์—…์ด ์•„๋‹™๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ๋งค์šฐ ๊ฒฌ์‹คํ•˜๊ณ  ์ ์ ˆํ•œ ๊ทœ๋ชจ์˜ ์ค‘ํ˜•์ฃผ(mid-cap) ๊ธฐ์—…์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ์žฌ๋ฌด์ƒํƒœํ‘œ(balance sheet) ๊ด€๋ฆฌ์— ์‹ ์ค‘ํ•ด์•ผ ํ•˜๋ฉฐ, ์ด๊ฒƒ์ด ์ €ํฌ์˜ ๊ฐ•์ ์œผ๋กœ ์ž‘์šฉํ•˜๋„๋ก ํ™•์‹คํžˆ ํ•ด์•ผ ํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Bahram Akradi: So, we don't need to start as many and we have the ability not to. So if you have something just massively wrong, we're still going to grow revenue, we're still going to like 2009, we're still going to grow EBITDA, we're still going to grow EPS, and we can be in an extremely well-tucked in defensive position. If things go robust, then we can step on it and go faster on development and build out. I don't know what else I could tell you guys, other than based on our feel of what's straight ahead, we want to be in full control of how we manage our balance sheet. I absolutely want to achieve a BB from the next one, from either S&P or Moody's to get the company to that BB status. That's super important. It's been my next big objective. And we're putting the company in a position where we can get that and stay in that position as we go forward.**Bahram Akradi:** ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ๋งŽ์€ ์‹ ๊ทœ ์‚ฌ์—…์„ ์‹œ์ž‘ํ•  ํ•„์š”๊ฐ€ ์—†์œผ๋ฉฐ, ๊ทธ๋ ‡๊ฒŒ ํ•˜์ง€ ์•Š์„ ์—ญ๋Ÿ‰๋„ ๊ฐ–์ถ”๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋งŒ์•ฝ ์‹œ์žฅ ์ƒํ™ฉ์ด ๋งค์šฐ ์ข‹์ง€ ์•Š๋”๋ผ๋„, 2009๋…„๊ณผ ๊ฐ™์€ ์ƒํ™ฉ์—์„œ๋„ ๊ทธ๋žฌ๋“ฏ์ด, ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ์—ฌ์ „ํžˆ ๋งค์ถœ(revenue)์„ ์„ฑ์žฅ์‹œํ‚ฌ ๊ฒƒ์ด๊ณ , EBITDA(์ƒ๊ฐ์ „ ์˜์—…์ด์ต)๋„ ์„ฑ์žฅ์‹œํ‚ฌ ๊ฒƒ์ด๋ฉฐ, EPS(์ฃผ๋‹น์ˆœ์ด์ต) ๋˜ํ•œ ๋Š˜๋ ค๋‚˜๊ฐˆ ๊ฒƒ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ๋งค์šฐ ํƒ„ํƒ„ํ•œ ๋ฐฉ์–ด์  ์ž…์ง€๋ฅผ ๊ตฌ์ถ•ํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Megan Alexander: Great. Awesome. Then just to follow-up on the response to Alex's first question, Bahram, you said you're seeing a customer. I think you said that's more thoughtful on when they are joined, maybe waiting a bit longer. Can you just expand a little bit maybe on when you started to see that? Clearly, there's been a lot of volatility over the last couple of months. Was that something you started to see with some of the stock market volatility we saw in the March, April timeframe?

A - Bahram Akradi: It's a dynamic situation, Megan. We have clubs that they are unawaited list and they are operating at such a maximum level of output from visits to in-center revenue, EBITDA, margins, everything. And there are some natural limitations on how many more people you can take in. So, they are on a wait list, so we're managing that the best way we can. There are clubs where I've always said there's some clubs that they have the extra capacity. And so when we're looking at the macro picture, we see that April and May, that new members sign up, which is again, a de minimis number for our total picture, is slightly softer than it has been the last couple of years. But that's partially because clubs are more full, retention is higher. We're not losing as many people. When you don't lose as many people, you don't have as many opportunity for rejoins. So, at this point, it's not something to have a huge concern about, but we got to shake this out through really Memorial Day, June, to see how that shakes out. So for right now, I think everything is just fine.**A - Bahram Akradi:** ์—ญ๋™์ ์ธ ์ƒํ™ฉ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋Œ€๊ธฐ์ž ๋ช…๋‹จ์ด ์žˆ๋Š” ํด๋Ÿฝ๋“ค์ด ์žˆ๋Š”๋ฐ, ์ด ํด๋Ÿฝ๋“ค์€ ๋ฐฉ๋ฌธ๊ฐ ์ˆ˜๋ถ€ํ„ฐ ์„ผํ„ฐ ๋‚ด ๋งค์ถœ(in-center revenue), EBITDA(Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and Amortization), ๋งˆ์ง„(margins) ๋“ฑ ๋ชจ๋“  ๋ฉด์—์„œ ์ตœ๋Œ€์น˜๋กœ ์šด์˜๋˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ฆฌ๊ณ  ์–ผ๋งˆ๋‚˜ ๋” ๋งŽ์€ ์‚ฌ๋žŒ๋“ค์„ ์ˆ˜์šฉํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š”์ง€์— ๋Œ€ํ•œ ์ž์—ฐ์ ์ธ ํ•œ๊ณ„๋„ ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ž˜์„œ ๋Œ€๊ธฐ์ž ๋ช…๋‹จ์ด ์žˆ๋Š” ๊ฑฐ๊ณ , ์ €ํฌ๊ฐ€ ํ•  ์ˆ˜ ์žˆ๋Š” ์ตœ์„ ์„ ๋‹คํ•ด ๊ด€๋ฆฌํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ œ๊ฐ€ ํ•ญ์ƒ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ ธ๋“ฏ์ด, ์—ฌ์œ  ์šฉ๋Ÿ‰์„ ๊ฐ€์ง„ ํด๋Ÿฝ๋“ค๋„ ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ž˜์„œ ๊ฑฐ์‹œ์ ์ธ ๊ด€์ ์—์„œ ๋ณด๋ฉด, 4์›”๊ณผ 5์›”์˜ ์‹ ๊ทœ ํšŒ์› ๊ฐ€์ž…์€ (๋ฌผ๋ก  ์ „์ฒด์ ์ธ ๊ด€์ ์—์„œ ๋ณผ ๋•Œ ๋ฏธ๋ฏธํ•œ(de minimis) ์ˆ˜์น˜์ด๊ธด ํ•˜์ง€๋งŒ์š”) ์ง€๋‚œ ๋ช‡ ๋…„๊ฐ„๋ณด๋‹ค ์•ฝ๊ฐ„ ๋ถ€์ง„ํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ•˜์ง€๋งŒ ์ด๋Š” ๋ถ€๋ถ„์ ์œผ๋กœ ํด๋Ÿฝ๋“ค์ด ๋” ๊ฝ‰ ์ฐผ๊ณ , ํšŒ์› ์œ ์ง€์œจ(retention)์ด ๋” ๋†’์œผ๋ฉฐ, ์ €ํฌ๊ฐ€ ์˜ˆ์ „๋งŒํผ ๋งŽ์€ ์‚ฌ๋žŒ๋“ค์„ ์žƒ์ง€ ์•Š๊ณ  ์žˆ๊ธฐ ๋•Œ๋ฌธ์ž…๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ธ๋ ฅ ์œ ์ถœ์ด ์ ์œผ๋ฉด ์žฌํ•ฉ๋ฅ˜(rejoin) ๊ธฐํšŒ๋„ ๊ทธ๋งŒํผ ์ค„์–ด๋“ญ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ทธ๋ž˜์„œ ํ˜„์žฌ๋กœ์„œ๋Š” ํฌ๊ฒŒ ์šฐ๋ คํ•  ๋งŒํ•œ ์‚ฌ์•ˆ์€ ์•„๋‹™๋‹ˆ๋‹ค๋งŒ, ๋ฉ”๋ชจ๋ฆฌ์–ผ ๋ฐ์ด(Memorial Day)์™€ 6์›”๊นŒ์ง€๋Š” ์ƒํ™ฉ์ด ์–ด๋–ป๊ฒŒ ์ „๊ฐœ๋ ์ง€ ์ง€์ผœ๋ด์•ผ ํ•  ๊ฒƒ ๊ฐ™์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๋‹น์žฅ์€ ๋ชจ๋“  ๊ฒƒ์ด ๊ดœ์ฐฎ๋‹ค๊ณ  ์ƒ๊ฐํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Hi, good morning. Thanks for taking our question. You mentioned a few times that people are using the clubs more and there's higher in-center spend. And so we are wondering if there's a way to tell if you're just capturing more share of wallet and more share of time too. Is there a way โ€“ do you think that it's coming from other health and wellness activities, or do you see this behavior as incremental?: And then you called out the dynamic personal training as one of the higher growth areas of the in-center revenues, but we wondered if you could speak to the growth in other offerings.**Hi, good morning.

Bahram Akradi: Yeah, the spa and cafes are doing better than they were doing last year. They are not doing as good as I want them. We haven't still implemented all of our strategies in all the clubs. We're basically going location-by-location, trying to improve the offering. The personal training, dynamic personal training, dynamic stretch is one of the first things that we implemented three years ago to transform how that business is done. Because as I mentioned during IPO, I didn't believe that business as it was before. It would actually have the ability to kind of get its legs back under it. So we changed it to a program where truly, truly has an incremental value. And we've been working an amazing execution of strategies. I believe that the win on the personal training, which is substantial, is really just due to the function of all the things that we have been putting in place and we're getting the benefits, the fruits of our groundwork that we've been putting in the last two, three years, okay.**Bahram Akradi:** ๋„ค, ์ŠคํŒŒ์™€ ์นดํŽ˜๋Š” ์ž‘๋…„๋ณด๋‹ค๋Š” ์‹ค์ ์ด ์ข‹์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ํ•˜์ง€๋งŒ ์ œ๊ฐ€ ์›ํ•˜๋Š” ๋งŒํผ์€ ์•„๋‹™๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ์ €ํฌ๋Š” ์•„์ง ๋ชจ๋“  ํด๋Ÿฝ์— ์ €ํฌ์˜ ์ „๋žต์„ ๋‹ค ์ ์šฉํ•˜์ง€๋Š” ๋ชปํ–ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ธฐ๋ณธ์ ์œผ๋กœ ๊ฐ ์ง€์ ๋ณ„๋กœ ์„œ๋น„์Šค๋ฅผ ๊ฐœ์„ ํ•˜๊ธฐ ์œ„ํ•ด ๋…ธ๋ ฅํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

The customer who comes to Lifetime wants to interact with us. They want to do more things with us. All we have to do is deliver to them the type of things they want in a high level and they spend the money. And we arenโ€™t โ€“ and they love the brand. It's a constant repetition of they love the brand, they travel around Lifetime.: When the economy gets a little, as I've gone through this with all of you guys. When you get to a recessionary period, customers start pulling back on spending on big spends, right. So they have more time. As they have more time, they use the stuff they own more. They are going to spend more time in the clubs. They are going to utilize that membership better and that extra utilization means better retention for us. And so, we are well positioned for an economy that is growing or an economy that might be in recession for two or three quarters.**The customer who comes to Lifetime wants to interact with us.

So, we have a steady plan in our budget, sort of the modernization and CapEx, and we're executing on those, and those are really, really great adds to our business.

As I've always told you guys, modality of exercise, how you achieve your fitness, your wellness, your health, that is more like a fad. People will do โ€“ everybody goes crazy about spinning and you can't teach enough spin classes. Then all of a sudden, changes goes to some other form and spinning starts kind of getting weighed down.: So, we have always designed and adapted the clubs to move and adjust those fads. And then Lifetime is a big part of people's lifestyle. We position Lifetime so it's part of your life. You're using it 10x a month, 12x a month, 14x a month. It is how you live. And within that, we keep adapting whatโ€™s inside of there we need to adapt to keep our customer with us, as we have customers who've been with us for 30 years, 20 years, 10 years, and that is the approach that we take on running the business. So, it's constant adjustments and constant adaptation.**As I've always told you guys, modality of exercise, how you achieve your fitness, your wellness, your health, that is more like a fad.

John Baumgartner: Okay. And if I think about how that ties into the P&L on the center of operations expense this quarter, there was some nice leverage. I think it's the lowest it's been seasonally for a number of years now. I know it's a line that you want to give yourself flex to reinvest back in terms of guidance. Was there any timing benefit this quarter or are we starting to see some sort of a rollover where the return on incremental investment is better relative to history? How do we think about that line in the context of the broader guide? Especially given, I think the EBITDA margins implied for the rest of the year are pretty solid relative to Q1.**John Baumgartner:** ๋„ค. ์ด๋ฒˆ ๋ถ„๊ธฐ ์†์ต๊ณ„์‚ฐ์„œ(P&L) ์ƒ์˜ ์šด์˜ ๋น„์šฉ(operations expense) ํ•ญ๋ชฉ๊ณผ ๊ด€๋ จํ•˜์—ฌ ๋ง์”€๋“œ๋ฆฌ์ž๋ฉด, ์ƒ๋‹นํ•œ ๋ ˆ๋ฒ„๋ฆฌ์ง€(leverage) ํšจ๊ณผ๊ฐ€ ์žˆ์—ˆ์Šต๋‹ˆ๋‹ค. ๊ณ„์ ˆ์ ์œผ๋กœ ๋ณผ ๋•Œ, ์ง€๋‚œ ๋ช‡ ๋…„๊ฐ„ ๊ฐ€์žฅ ๋‚ฎ์€ ์ˆ˜์ค€์ด๋ผ๊ณ  ์ƒ๊ฐํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Erik Weaver: Yeah. I think the full year, I think our guidance implies, I want to say 27%. So yeah, I think what we're seeing is a couple of things. We're seeing the flow through from the additional membership revenue and also some of our internal businesses, particularly our PT, as that continues to grow. That also has a flow through margin. So to answer your question directly, there's nothing in terms of timing or anything like that. It really is kind of the strength of the model we built in that additional flow through.**Erik Weaver:** ๋„ค, ์—ฐ๊ฐ„์œผ๋กœ๋Š” ์ €ํฌ ๊ฐ€์ด๋˜์Šค(guidance)๊ฐ€ 27% ์ˆ˜์ค€์„ ์˜ˆ์ƒํ•˜๊ณ  ์žˆ๋‹ค๊ณ  ์ƒ๊ฐํ•ฉ๋‹ˆ๋‹ค.

Bahram Akradi: Yeah. So, the strategy there is to grow LTH to the most trusted nutritional brand that exists. So, we are working on building the product lineup, make sure it is absolutely the best. One of the things about nutritional products is that there isn't any sort of a regulated vigorous testing for them.

So, as I take โ€“ I just took my 40 plus supplements that I now normally take in the morning while we were having our call. And we want to make sure what's in them, that they are the best and it's the right product.: We had a significant growth, like a 40 plus month over month in March. We expect to see LTH grow substantially over the years. And then we are diligently working on LT Digital and Lacey, our AI companion, and that is moving exactly on our timetable right now. We're not behind. We expect to deliver an AI option for health and wellness, not for just building a workout, not just for meditation, not just for taking classes. I mean, the entire ecosystem that Lifetime offers physically will be offered digitally, and we're continuing to work.**So, as I take โ€“ I just took my 40 plus supplements that I now normally take in the morning while we were having our call.

And we are โ€“ based on everything that we have done, there's at least going to be a half a dozen months before we get to the point where we might have to feel an exposure from that. So between now and then, our strong belief is that something will be worked out. As I've said before, I'm not in disagreement with our administration that the government, that the U.S. needs to be treated with more respect and a more fair trade. However, I think having tariffs is basically nothing short of just an additional friction for the growth of the economy worldwide.: So, I am not an expert on which way it's going to go. All I can say to you is that our expectation is that it will level off, and we are well insulated for our core business and for these types of things. All we have to do is execute better than other people, that's it.**And we are โ€“ based on everything that we have done, there's at least going to be a half a dozen months before we get to the point where we might have to feel an exposure from that.
