XWEL News & Events

Xwell announced that the company has entered into a definitive agreement with an affiliate of Face Haus, Express Wellness Group, under which Xwell will divest its XpresSpa and XpresTest businesses for $13M, subject to certain closing adjustments. The transaction, which is expected to close later in 2026, is subject to Xwell stockholder approval and the satisfaction of other closing conditions.

"We continue to execute against our strategic priorities by expanding outside of the airport, diversifying access points and elevating brand relevance," said Ezra Ernst, CEO of XWELL. "The opening of our off-airport wellness center in Penn Station and growth across key Florida markets reflects XWELL's ability to extend services beyond the airport and into the everyday lives of our customers. Coupled with our long-standing CDC partnership and ongoing operational discipline, we believe XWELL is well positioned to create long-term value."

Xwell announced a strategic partnership with AI and predictive intelligence company PieQ to develop a next-generation U.S. biosecurity forecasting platform in support of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, CDC. The announcement follows a recent CDC milestone for the Traveler-based Genomic Surveillance, TGS, program - part of the Biothreat Radar Detection System - which has surpassed one million voluntary participants with XWELL and Ginkgo Biosecurity.
