As a reminder, on January 14th, XpresSpa provided preliminary financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended December 31, 2019.
- A preliminary domestic comparable store sales increase of 7.7% for the fourth quarter 2019, representing the third consecutive quarter of positive comparable store sales growth and best quarterly result of 2019. Notably, the preliminary December domestic comparable store sales increase of 10.2% was the best monthly result since January 2017.
- A preliminary domestic comparable store sales increase of 4.2% for the full year 2019.
- The opening of a new spa in Concourse E at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport in December 2019, joining existing XpresSpa spas in Concourses A, C, and D.
- The closing of two tertiary spas in JFK International Airport in December 2019 which had a negative contribution to operations.
These preliminary financial results demonstrate XpresSpa’s continued progress in strengthening operations and exemplifies its brand positioning as the health and wellness destination for the modern traveler.
In 2020, XpresSpa anticipates opening several spas within successful, existing markets along with new markets, particularly internationally, where the Company already operates some of its most profitable locations. XpresSpa will look to complete its systematic pruning of underperforming locations with one more low sales volume spa targeted for an out-of-cycle spa closure.
XpresSpa will also seek to extend its comparable store sales momentum, improve four-wall margins and manage G&A through effective cost management at the store and corporate level. Importantly, the Company intends to forge new strategic partnerships with brands that share XpresSpa’s commitment to health and wellness and can further monetize its desirable real estate and affluent customer base, as it has already done with Calm and Persona.
