According to the complaint, throughout the Class Period, the defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that, among other things: (i) Xponential had permanently closed at least 30 stores; (ii) Xponential's reported same-store sales and average unit volume metrics had been misstated by excluding underperforming stores; (iii) 8 out of 10 Xponential brands were losing money monthly; and (iv) more than 100 of Xponential's franchises were for sale at a price that was at least 75% less than the initial cost.

On June 26, 2023, Fuzzy Panda published a report which, among other things, represented that: (i) Xponential CEO Anthony Geisler has had a long history of misleading investors; (ii) Xponential has issued a series of misleading statements about its store closures and the overall financial health of its franchisee base; (iii) more than 50% of Xponential's studios never make a positive financial return; (iv) more than 100 of Xponential's franchises were for sale at a price that was at least 75% less than the initial cost; and (v) at least 30 Xponential stores had been permanently closed.

A lead plaintiff is a representative party who acts on behalf of all class members in directing the litigation. The lead plaintiff is usually the investor or small group of investors who have the largest financial interest and who are also adequate and typical of the proposed class of investors. The lead plaintiff selects counsel to represent the lead plaintiff and the class and these attorneys, if approved by the court, are lead or class counsel. Your ability to share in any recovery is not, however, affected by the decision whether or not to serve as a lead plaintiff. Communicating with any counsel is not necessary to participate or share in any recovery achieved in this case. Any member of the purported class may move the Court to serve as a lead plaintiff through counsel of his/her choice, or may choose to do nothing and remain an inactive class member.
