Extended read
Dorsal Capital Management liquidated a significant portion of its Planet Fitness (PLNT) holdings in Q1 2026, selling $19.78 million worth of shares and reducing its stake to 7.3% of AUM. This divestment occurred despite Planet Fitness reporting strong operational results, including 22% revenue growth and a 20% EBITDA increase. The stock, however, has declined 50% over the past year, primarily attributed to slower-than-expected member growth. The institutional selling suggests that concerns about the company's ability to expand its member base are outweighing its current financial performance.
