Planet Fitness Item 20: outlets, closures & growth
In its latest FDD Item 20 (fiscal 2025), Planet Fitness reported 2,432 franchised outlets at year end. 7 of 2,298 franchised outlets open at the start of the year left the system — an annualized exit rate of 0.3%— while 141 new outlets opened. Systemwide units moved +10.3% over 2023–2025.
| Status (FTC) | 2023 | 2024 | 2025 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Outlets at start | 2,314 | 2,455 | 2,568 |
| Opened | 123 | 100 | 141 |
| Transfers | 100 | 270 | 71 |
| Terminations | 0 | 0 | 7 |
| Non-renewals | 0 | 1 | 0 |
| Reacquired by franchisor | 4 | 0 | 0 |
| Ceased — other reasons | 0 | 2 | 0 |
| Outlets at end | 2,455 | 2,568 | 2,709 |
| Net change | +141 | +113 | +141 |
7 terminations + 0 non-renewals + 0 ceased (other) = 7 exits ÷ 2,298 at start = 0.3%
These are the three FTC Item 20 statuses in which a franchisee involuntarily or terminally leaves the system. Transfers (71) are resales, not exits; reacquisitions by the franchisor (0) are tracked separately. There is no official “failure rate” — this annualized exit rate is the disclosed, measurable floor.

A broker is paid by the franchisor to place you. An independent CPA is paid by you — and the job is pressure-testing Planet Fitness's numbers, including talking you out of a bad deal.
