Planet Fitness' valuation has plummeted $400 million in five days after they banned a member who shared a photo of a 'trans woman' using a female locker room.
The company's value dropped from $5.3 billion on March 14 to $4.9 billion on March 19, and its shares are down by 13.59 percent compared to a month ago.
The decline follows Planet Fitness refusing to walk back its decision to ban a member who exposed a 'trans woman' shaving in a female locker room earlier this month.
Patricia Silva was barred after she detailed an incident at her Alaska gym online, where she said she saw a transgender woman in her locker room.
Following backlash against the ban, the company said although some members may feel uncomfortable sharing facilities, 'this discomfort is not a reason to deny access to the transgender member.'
The company's stock fell by 7.8 percent on Tuesday, going from its opening price of $59.44 to a five-month low of $54.80, it then rebounded slightly.
Silva posted a video describing her experience at the gym on Facebook in early March.
She said she had just finished working out at Planet Fitness' Fairbanks location, when she saw the person, whom she called 'a man with a penis,' carrying out his routine in front of a 12-year-old girl.
Silva, who has previously run for Fairbanks Borough Assembly, told the 'trans woman' they should really be using the male locker room.
The trans woman replied that they were 'LGB.'
Silva then took a picture of the person and shared it online and recounted her experience in a Facebook video.

I will not miss those grunt alarms.
Virtue Signaling can be expensive.
Isn’t it a beautiful thing when the sane people speak?
Die Planet Fitness!
And I say that as a past member.
I’ve always hated PF. Typical liberals. They want a judgment free environment but have no problem ringing the lunk alarm and shaming one person in front of everyone.
Yaaaaaaaaaaaayyyy
Fitness to witness Bud Light.
A shareholders class action law suit should follow shortly.
Well.......Bye!
Engeron might want Planet Fotness to revise those value spreadsheets. They certainly don’t want to overstate their value.
Planet Fitness is a faggoty type of gym...
“The company’s value dropped from $5.3 billion on March 14 to $4.9 billion on March 19, and its shares are down by 13.59 percent compared to a month ago.”
A good start.
Isn’t this the same gym that banned James O Keefe for exposing the tranny story?
Planet Fitness has been Budlighted
What a bloodbath.
You would think they would think but they are as stupid as they come, Hey let me say something, do something or protect a foolish idea that will help me lose millions of dollars overnight
> They want a judgment free environment… <
But they are quick to judge a woman when she feels uncomfortable about a man in her locker room.
Funny how “rights” is a one-way street. The transsexual has all rights. The biological woman has no rights, none at all.
O’Keefe exposed Judge Engoron creeping out women at Planet Fitness. Engoron retaliated. Kinda like a booing.
The trans person could sue her for posting a naked pic of them online.
