XWELL, Inc. (NASDAQ: XWEL)

XWELL, Inc. operates as a global wellness company, focusing on providing restorative, regenerative, and reinvigorating products and services primarily to travelers. The company operates through multiple brands and has four reportable operating segments: XpresSpa, XpresTest, Naples Wax Center, and Treat. XWELL generates revenue through its various wellness services and products, catering to travelers and other customers seeking health and wellness solutions. The company's primary products and services include spa services, COVID-19 and other medical testing, hair removal services, and wellness services at on-site centers. XWELL's customer base includes travelers, airline and airport employees, and other individuals seeking wellness services.

• XpresSpa: This segment operates as a global airport retailer of spa services through its XpresSpa locations. It offers premium spa services, including massage, nail care, skin care, and spa and travel products. As of December 31, 2024, there were 18 domestic XpresSpa locations and 10 international locations in airports such as Dubai International, Zayad International in Abu Dhabi, Schiphol Amsterdam, and Istanbul Airport.

• XpresTest: Initially focused on COVID-19 and other medical testing services, XpresTest has transitioned to conducting bio surveillance monitoring in collaboration with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Concentric by Ginkgo Bioworks. The segment generates revenue through contracts with government agencies for bio surveillance services.

• Naples Wax Center: Acquired in September 2023, this segment operates upscale hair removal locations offering face and body waxing services, along with a range of skincare and cosmetic products. The acquisition aims to expand XWELL's presence beyond airport locations and diversify its wellness offerings.

• Treat: This segment provides wellness services for travelers at on-site centers. However, as of mid-2025, all Treat locations will be converted to XWELL locations, marking the end of the Treat brand's operation.

XWELL operates in a competitive industry with a mix of large and small players. The domestic market for airport wellness services is highly fragmented, with the largest competitor operating 15 locations in 11 airports. XWELL's competitive advantages include its strategic positioning in high-traffic airports, a diverse portfolio of wellness services, and a flexible retail format that allows it to adapt to various airport sizes and locations. The company's ability to leverage its brands across different markets and its focus on expanding both airport and off-airport locations further strengthen its competitive position.

XWELL's customer base primarily consists of travelers seeking wellness services at airports. The company also serves airline and airport employees, as well as government agencies through its bio surveillance monitoring services. By offering a range of wellness services and products, XWELL caters to a broad audience looking for convenient and high-quality wellness solutions.
