Xponential COO Resigns

Ryan Junk, chief operating officer of Xponential Fitness Inc. (NYSE: XPOF), resigned from the fitness studio franchisor on Nov. 1 effective Monday, according to an SEC filing.  

Junk first joined Xponential in 2017 as president of the then-recently acquired CycleBar brand. He moved up to chief strategy officer in 2020 then became COO a year later.  

No replacement has been named.  

This is the latest change to Xponential’s leadership team following the departure of founder Anthony Geisler in May and the appointment of Mark King, former chief executive of Taco Bell, as the new CEO in June.  

Shares of the Irvine-based company are down 17% since then.  

Xponential, with a market cap of $607 million, will report third-quarter earnings on Nov. 7.
