Gold bars to be exempt from tariffs, White House clarifies
NEW YORK - XWELL, Inc. (NASDAQ: XWEL), a company specializing in wellness, announced today its plan to acquire several medical spas by the end of 2025. The expansion is backed by a $4 million private placement and targets the intersection of wellness and beauty, a sector experiencing significant growth. According to InvestingPro data, XWELL maintains a healthy current ratio of 1.98, with cash reserves exceeding debt obligations, though analysts note the company is currently burning through cash at a concerning rate.
The company’s CEO, Ezra Ernst, emphasized that this move is in line with XWELL’s mission to "liberate wellness" by offering a continuum of care that now extends to urban areas. The focus will initially be on metropolitan regions with high demand for medspa services, such as Orlando, Austin, Texas, and Salt Lake City. The company’s revenue grew by approximately 12% in the last twelve months, reaching $33.8 million, though InvestingPro analysis suggests the stock is currently trading below its Fair Value.
XWELL intends to introduce advanced treatments and AI-driven personalization in its medical spas, aiming to meet the evolving wellness needs of consumers. The treatments offered will range from facial aesthetics and skin care to injectables, body sculpting, laser therapies, and various wellness services administered by certified professionals.
This strategic initiative is part of XWELL’s broader vision to establish a nationwide brand presence, delivering innovative self-care solutions that prioritize health and well-being. The medical spa market is rapidly expanding, with consumers seeking non-invasive and effective treatments to enhance their quality of life. With a market capitalization of just $4.7 million and an overall Financial Health Score rated as ’WEAK’ by InvestingPro, which offers comprehensive analysis and 17 additional ProTips for this stock, the company faces significant challenges in executing its expansion strategy.
XWELL operates multiple brands within the wellness industry, including Xpres Spa, Treat, Naples Wax Center, XpresCheck, and HyperPointe. Xpres Spa is known for its wellness services and products, while Naples Wax Center offers upscale skincare boutiques. XpresCheck collaborates with the CDC and Ginkgo Biosecurity for biosurveillance monitoring in airports, and HyperPointe is a digital healthcare and data analytics company.
