Xponential Fitness announces departure of North America president John Kawaja

Xponential Fitness, Inc. (NYSE:XPOF) reported the departure of John Kawaja, President of North America, effective Friday. The company disclosed the leadership change in a statement released through a Securities and Exchange Commission filing. The news comes as the company’s stock has declined about 35% over the past six months, currently trading at $8.60 with a market capitalization of $419 million. According to InvestingPro analysis, the company maintains impressive gross profit margins of 68%.

No additional details regarding the circumstances of Kawaja’s separation from the company were provided in the filing. Xponential Fitness is based in Irvine, California, and operates in the miscellaneous amusement and recreation services sector.

This information is based on a press release statement included in the company’s SEC filing.

In other recent news, Xponential Fitness reported its second-quarter 2025 earnings, surpassing analysts’ expectations with an adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.26, compared to the forecasted $0.22. The company, however, experienced a slight revenue miss, with actual revenue of $76.2 million falling short of the $77.24 million forecast. This revenue figure was slightly above Wall Street expectations of $75.6 million but below Stifel’s projection of $77.2 million. The revenue decline was primarily due to lower equipment revenue, partially offset by increased franchise revenue.

In addition, Stifel maintained its Hold rating and a $12 price target for the company. Xponential Fitness also appointed Rachel Lee to its Board of Directors, effective August 25, 2025. Lee brings nearly two decades of finance and private equity experience and currently serves on the boards of other NASDAQ-listed companies. These developments are part of the company’s ongoing strategic adjustments.
