Summary · why it matters

The Gross Law Firm has issued a shareholder alert for Planet Fitness, Inc., notifying investors who purchased shares between November 6, 2025 and May 6, 2026 that they may seek lead plaintiff appointment in a securities class action lawsuit. The complaint alleges that the company made materially false and misleading statements about its customer acquisition and marketing metrics, concealing that its updated marketing was failing to resonate with its core demographic of fitness beginners and casual gym-goers, causing a significant headwind in net member joins during the peak first-quarter sign-up period. On May 7, 2026, Planet Fitness reported slower-than-expected first-quarter results, slashed full-year 2026 same-store growth guidance from 4-5% to 1%, withdrew its long-term three-year growth algorithm, and paused the national rollout of a Black Card price increase, leading to a single-day stock decline of about 31.19% from $63.96 to $44.01 per share. The deadline to seek lead plaintiff appointment is September 14, 2026.
