TSG took a majority stake in Planet Fitness in 2012, polished the brand, took it public in 2015, and cashed out by 2017. The classic PE move, done fast: ride the growth curve through an IPO, exit with a profit, and leave the company answering to Wall Street's quarterly demands instead of its gym members.
