CHANHASSEN, Minn., Aug. 1, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- Life Time Group Holdings, Inc. ("Life Time," "we,"
"our," "us," or the "Company") (NYSE: LTH) today announced its
financial results for the fiscal second quarter ended June 30, 2024.
Bahram Akradi, Founder,
Chairman and CEO, stated: "We are very pleased with our
second quarter performance and the progress we have made toward
achieving our financial objectives. Once again this quarter, our
results demonstrate the momentum of our business as we continue to
deliver strong revenue and adjusted EBITDA growth. The second
quarter also was an important inflection point for the Company as
we achieved positive free cash flow as expected, and a net debt
leverage ratio of 3.0 times, which was two quarters earlier than
our plan. As a result of our strong performance, we are raising our
full-year revenue and adjusted EBITDA guidance. We are enthusiastic
about the trajectory of our business and remain committed to
funding our growth while generating positive free cash flow and
further reducing our leverage."

Second Quarter 2024 Information
- Revenue increased 18.9% to $667.8
million due to continued strong growth in membership dues
and in-center revenue, driven by an increase in average dues,
membership growth in our new and ramping centers, and higher member
utilization of our in-center offerings.
- Center memberships increased by 42,398, or 5.4%, when compared
to June 30, 2023, and increased
sequentially from March 31, 2024, by
30,626, which was due in part to typical seasonality.
- Total subscriptions, which include center memberships and our
digital on-hold memberships, increased 5.5% to 878,767 as compared
to June 30, 2023.
- Center operations expenses increased 17.5% to $355.5 million primarily due to increased
operating costs related to our new and ramping centers as well as
growth in memberships and in-center business revenue.
- General, administrative and marketing expenses increased 0.8%
to $53.2 million primarily due to
increases in cash incentive compensation expenses, information
technology costs, and center support overhead to enhance and
broaden our member services and experiences, and were partially
offset by lower share-based compensation expense.
- Net income increased $35.8
million to $52.8 million
primarily due to improved business performance and to a lesser
extent tax-effected one-time net benefits of $6.0 million from net gains on sale-leaseback
transactions and $3.4 million from a
gain on the sale of land in the current year period, as compared to
a tax-effected one-time loss of $6.2
million on a sale-leaseback transaction in the prior year
period.
- Adjusted net income increased $14.4
million to $52.4 million.
- Adjusted net income and Adjusted EBITDA improved significantly
as we experienced greater flow through of our increased revenue and
benefited from the structural improvements to our business that
have improved our margins.

million due to continued strong growth in membership dues

operating costs related to our new and ramping centers as well as
growth in memberships and in-center business revenue.
- General, administrative and marketing expenses increased 7.1%
to $102.1 million primarily due to
increases in our cash-based incentive compensation and information
technology costs, the timing of marketing expenses primarily
related to our new club openings, and center support overhead to
enhance and broaden our member services and experiences, and were
partially offset by lower share-based compensation expense.
- Net income increased $33.2
million to $77.7 million
primarily due to improved business performance and to a lesser
extent tax-effected one-time net benefits of $5.8 million from net gains on sale-leaseback
transactions and $3.3 million from a
gain on the sale of land in the current year period. Net income in
the prior year period included a tax-effected one-time gain of
$3.8 million on the sale of two
triathlon events and a tax-effected one-time net loss of
$0.6 million on sale-leaseback
transactions.
- Adjusted net income increased $23.6

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Key Performance
Indicators
This press release includes certain financial
measures that are not presented in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles in the
United States ("GAAP"), including Adjusted net income,
Adjusted net income per common share, Adjusted EBITDA, free cash
flow and net debt and ratios and calculations with respect thereto.
These non-GAAP financial measures are not based on any
comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and should be
considered in addition to, and not as a substitute for or superior
to, net income, net income per common share, net cash provided by
operating activities or total debt (defined as long-term debt, net
of current portion, plus current maturities of debt) as a measure
of financial performance or liquidity or any other performance
measure derived in accordance with GAAP, and should not be
construed as an inference that the Company's future results will be
unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. In addition, these
non-GAAP financial measures should be read in conjunction with the
Company's financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
The reconciliations of the Company's non-GAAP financial measures to
the corresponding GAAP measures should be carefully evaluated.
Adjusted net income is defined as net income excluding the
impact of share-based compensation expense as well as (gain) loss
on sale-leaseback transactions, capital transaction costs, legal
settlements, asset impairment, severance and other items that are
not indicative of our ongoing operations, less the tax effect of
these adjustments. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income before
interest expense, net, provision for income taxes and depreciation
and amortization, excluding the impact of share-based compensation
expense as well as (gain) loss on sale-leaseback transactions,
capital transaction costs, legal settlements, asset impairment,
severance and other items that are not indicative of the Company's
ongoing operations. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided
by operating activities less capital expenditures, net of
construction reimbursements, plus net proceeds from sale-leaseback
transactions and land sales. Net debt is defined as long-term debt,
net of current portion, plus current maturities of debt, excluding
fair value adjustments, unamortized debt discounts and issuance
costs, minus cash and cash equivalents. Net debt is as of the last
day of the respective quarter or year. Our net debt leverage ratio
is calculated as our net debt divided by our trailing twelve months
of Adjusted EBITDA.
The Company presents these non-GAAP financial measures because
management believes that these measures assist investors and
analysts in comparing the Company's operating performance across
reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that
management does not believe are indicative of the Company's ongoing
operating performance, and management believes that free cash flow
assists investors and analysts in evaluating our liquidity and cash
flows, including our ability to make principal payments on our
indebtedness and to fund our capital expenditures and working
capital requirements. Investors are encouraged to evaluate these
adjustments and the reasons the Company considers them appropriate
for supplemental analysis. In evaluating the non-GAAP financial
measures, investors should be aware that, in the future, the
Company may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some
of the adjustments in the Company's presentation of its non-GAAP
financial measures. There can be no assurance that the Company will
not modify the presentation of non-GAAP financial measures in
future periods, and any such modification may be material. In
addition, the Company's non-GAAP financial measures may not be
comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies in
the Company's industry or across different industries.
The non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical
tools, and investors should not consider these measures in
isolation or as substitutes for analysis of the Company's results
as reported under GAAP.
The Company includes a center, for comparable center revenue
purposes, beginning on the first day of the 13th full
calendar month of the center's operation, in order to assess the
center's growth rate after one year of operation.

We define Average
Center revenue per center membership as Center revenue less Digital
on-hold revenue, divided by the average number of Center
memberships for the period, where the average number of Center
memberships for the period is an average derived from dividing the
sum of the total Center memberships outstanding at the beginning of
the period and at the end of each month during the period by one
plus the number of months in each period.
|
|
|
(2)
|
We measure the results
of our centers based on how long each center has been open as of
the most recent measurement period. We include a center, for
comparable center revenue purposes, beginning on the first day of
the 13th full calendar month of the center's operation, in order to
assess the center's growth rate after one year of
operation.
|
|
|
(3)
|
Net new center openings
is calculated as the number of centers that opened for the first
time to members during the period, less any centers that closed
during the period. Total centers (end of period) is the number of
centers operational as of the last day of the period. During the
three months ended June 30, 2024, we opened three
centers.
|
|
|
(4)
|
Total center square
footage (end of period) reflects the aggregate square footage,
excluding the areas used for tennis courts, outdoor swimming pools,
outdoor play areas and stand-alone Work, Sport and Swim locations.
We use this metric for evaluating the efficiencies of a center as
of the end of the period. These figures are
approximations.
|
|
|
(5)
|
Net income margin is
calculated as net income divided by total revenue.
|
|
|
(6)
|
We present Adjusted net
income as a supplemental measure of our performance. We define
Adjusted net income as net income excluding the impact of
share-based compensation expense as well as (gain) loss on
sale-leaseback transactions, capital transaction costs, legal
settlements, asset impairment, severance and other items that are
not indicative of our ongoing operations, less the tax effect of
these adjustments.
|
|
|
|
Adjusted net income
margin is calculated as Adjusted net income divided by total
revenue.

stock units, performance stock units, our employee stock purchase
plan ("ESPP") that launched on December 1, 2022, and
liability-classified awards related to our 2024 short-term
incentive plan. Share-based compensation expense recognized during

We present Adjusted
EBITDA as a supplemental measure of our performance. We define
Adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest expense, net,
provision for income taxes and depreciation and amortization,
excluding the impact of share-based compensation expense as well as
(gain) loss on sale-leaseback transactions, capital transaction
costs, legal settlements, asset impairment, severance and other
items that are not indicative of our ongoing operations.
