<p>In this episode of Yet Another Value Podcast, host Andrew Walker welcomes back Zack Buckley of Buckley Capital Partners to discuss Basic-Fit, Europe’s largest gym chain. Zack shares why the market has been overly pessimistic on the name, despite long-term growth potential. They break down what went wrong post-2020, unit economics, and whether Basic-Fit can finally deliver on expectations. Zack also outlines the opportunity in France’s 24/7 gym shift, the underappreciated moat in Basic-Fit&#39;s cluster strategy, and why he sees the stock potentially tripling. It&#39;s a conversation packed with deep due diligence, strategic insights, and a firm outlook on value creation.______________________________________________________________________[00:00:00] Podcast and guest introduction[00:02:41] Basic Fit’s business overview[00:03:15] Why market misjudges Basic Fit[00:04:40] COVID’s impact on gym cohorts[00:07:48] Zack’s in-person gym visits[00:10:12] Unit economics explained[00:14:00] Capex and depreciation debate[00:15:36] Member per store growth importance[00:16:32] 24/7 France investment case[00:18:38] Staffless gym impact analysis[00:20:22] Basic Fit’s sustainable moat[00:22:43] Differences with Dental Corp[00:24:38] Low-cost model’s retail parallel[00:28:13] Franchising potential is minimal[00:31:50] Marketing spend not a concern[00:34:38] Path to $90 price target[00:36:51] Why past forecasts failed[00:38:26] Thoughts on management team[00:43:39] Valuing via replacement cost[00:46:47] Risk of future underperformance[00:48:48] European gym vs. U.S. context[00:50:25] Demand across European markets[00:53:50] Competitor threats and strategy[00:56:43] Cautious growth after 2021 boomLinks:Yet Another Value Blog - https://www.yetanothervalueblog.com See our legal disclaimer here: https://www.yetanothervalueblog.com/p/legal-and-disclaimer</p>
