AI Analysis

AI-generated, general educational analysis — not personal investment advice.

As a Buffett-and-Graham-style investor, I start with the business. Planet Fitness franchises and operates fitness centers through franchise, corporate-owned club, and equipment segments. That can be a good model because franchising can generate recurring fees, though it remains consumer cyclical. The filed numbers show growth: in fiscal Q2 2026, the quarter ended 2026-06-30, revenue was $365.2M and net income was $67.1M, up from $340.9M and $58.0M in fiscal Q2 2025, the quarter ended 2025-06-30. In fiscal 2025, the year ended 2025-12-31, revenue was $1.3B and net income was $219.1M, versus fiscal 2024, the year ended 2024-12-31, revenue of $1.2B and net income of $172.0M. That history supports FairStock's FAST GROWER label, based on 50.4% annual profit growth and 22.6% annual revenue growth over four years. Still, the supplied current growth rates of 7.14% for revenue and 15.62% for profit show deceleration. Financial health is mixed. Trailing free cash flow is $261.7M, and FairStock calculates a 4.8% FCF yield at the 2026-10-13 close of $47.45. FairStock also calculates a P/E of 16.14, PEG of 1.03, EV/EBITDA of 13.24, and ROCE of 8.54%. The Altman Z-score of 0.68 is weak, while the Piotroski F-score is 6/9; P/B, ROE, and D/E are unavailable. The 52-week range of $37.03-$114.26 shows a severe market re-rating. At this price, valuation looks fair, not a fat pitch. I would need evidence that franchise economics and growth remain durable before getting excited.

In plain English: Planet Fitness runs and franchises fitness clubs. In its latest reported quarter it grew sales and profit from a year earlier, and it produces positive cash after running the business, so the underlying business looks reasonably healthy. At the recent stock price, shares look fair rather than clearly cheap or expensive compared with the company's earnings and growth.
