XWELL ($XWEL) Announces Strategic Restructuring with $13M Divestiture

XWELL, Inc. (NASDAQ: XWEL) has announced a definitive agreement to divest its XpresSpa Holdings, LLC and XpresTest, Inc. businesses to Express Wellness Group, LLC, an affiliate of Face Haus, LLC, for $13 million.

This strategic move aims to maximize shareholder value and facilitate a transformative restructuring as XWELL shifts its focus towards the national security sector.

The proceeds from the divestiture will be used to bolster XWELL’s capital deployment capabilities, supporting growth initiatives and long-term success.

The company’s health and wellness operations at non-airport retail locations will remain unaffected by this transaction.

XWELL plans to streamline operations, reduce expenses, and allocate resources to align with its evolving business strategy.

The transaction is anticipated to close in 2026, pending stockholder approval and other conditions.

Bruce Bernstein, Chairman of the Board, stated, “This transaction represents an important milestone in the Company’s strategic evolution. By simplifying our portfolio and strengthening our balance sheet, we believe XWELL will be better positioned to pivot and pursue opportunities in the national security sector while maintaining financial discipline and creating long-term value for our stockholders.”
