The company behind ClassPass and Mindbody just got a lot bigger with a $7.5B merger

The fitness industry is consolidating fast — and the latest deal is one of the biggest yet. Playlist, the parent company behind fitness brands Booker, ClassPass, and Mindbody, has officially merged with EGYM, a startup known for its smart gym equipment, AI-driven workout plans, and corporate wellness marketplace Wellpass. 

Playlist announced on Tuesday that the transaction is officially complete after first disclosing the agreement in January. With everything now finalized, EGYM will operate under Playlist alongside its other brands, and leadership will be shared between Playlist CEO Fritz Lanman and EGYM CEO Philipp Roesch-Schlanderer.
