XpresSpa, FORM's largest operating segment, is the leading airport spa company
in the world. XpresSpa has approximately 50% market share in the United States
as measured by number of airport spas. It provides premium health and wellness
services through its 49 locations within 20 of the largest and most desirable
airport hubs in the United States, as well as four locations in two airports in
Amsterdam and Dubai. XpresSpa generated annual revenues in 2016 of $43.8
million.
Counter to the instability of traditional retail, which has been exacerbated by
shifting shopping preferences and the proliferation of e-commerce offerings, the
airport retail market continues to grow due to increased travel security and
screening requirements that are creating a captive environment within airport
terminals globally. In response to these changes, airport consumers are
demanding greater access to innovative and upscale retail, food, and services
options. The North American airport retail market is on pace to grow at a 19%
compound annual growth rate to $9.9 billion annually in 2020, according to New
Market Research & Micro Market Monitor. XpresSpa's flexible operating model
with compelling store economics is a perfect partner for airport operators
looking to stay on trend with the powerful health and wellness movement.
