2012 FINANCIAL RESULTS

New York, NY – February 19, 2013 – Town Sports International Holdings, Inc. (“TSI” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: CLUB), a leading owner and operator of health clubs located primarily in major cities from Washington, DC north through New England, operating under the brand names “New York Sports Clubs,” “Boston Sports Clubs,” “Washington Sports Clubs” and “Philadelphia Sports Clubs,” announced its results for the fourth quarter and full-year ended December 31, 2012.

Fourth Quarter Overview:

• The Company paid a special cash dividend of $3.00 per share on December 11, 2012. The aggregate amount of the dividends paid totaled $70.3 million with another $1.1 million payable as restricted shares vest.

• Total member count decreased 12,000 to 510,000 in Q4 2012 and decreased by 13,000 for the full-year 2012.

• Membership monthly attrition averaged 3.5% per month in Q4 2012 compared to 3.4% per month in Q4 2011.

• Revenue of $114.2 million in Q4 2012 decreased 1.4% compared to Q4 2011.

• Comparable club revenue decreased 1.1% in Q4 2012.

• Diluted loss per share was $0.02 in Q4 2012 compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.14 in Q4 2011.

• Q4 2012 results reflected the following items amounting to an aggregate net charge of approximately $7.8 million before taxes (approximately $4.3 million net of taxes) or approximately $0.18 per diluted share:

• $3.2 million ($1.9 million net of taxes) of fixed asset write-offs related to four clubs that sustained damage as a result of Hurricane Sandy.

• $1.6 million ($924,000 net of taxes) of incremental interest charges related to expenses incurred in connection with the Q4 2012 additional borrowing under the Company’s credit facility.

• $2.5 million ($1.5 million net of taxes) of an equivalent cash bonus paid to certain option holders in connection with the Company’s special dividend payment.

• $577,000 ($340,000 net of taxes) of consulting and administration expenses and incremental compensation expense incurred in connection with the Company’s special dividend payment and related stock option modifications.

• $340,000 of discrete tax benefits.

• Adjusted EBITDA was $23.2 million in Q4 2012, an increase of $333,000, or 1.5%, when compared to Adjusted EBITDA of $22.9 million in Q4 2011 (Refer to the reconciliation below).

Robert Giardina, Chief Executive Officer of TSI, commented: “We are pleased to have delivered 2012 Adjusted EBITDA of $100 million, modestly exceeding the goal we set for ourselves at the beginning of the year despite the impact of Hurricane Sandy, which resulted in 131 temporary club closures and a decline in member traffic. We are firmly focused on driving personal training and other ancillary revenues and are very excited about the response to new programs like our signature classes, small group training classes and UXF. We also plan to expand our club base, and see opportunities for both acquisitions and new locations in 2013.”

Mr. Giardina added, “We returned $70.3 million to our shareholders in 2012 in the form of a $3.00 per share special dividend. As we look to 2013, we expect that our cash flow generation will exceed the capital outlay to fund club growth. With respect to club growth, we are excited to have announced the acquisition of Fitcorp in Boston. In addition to the five clubs and four managed sites that will join our family, Fitcorp has been a leader in developing corporate programs and managing corporate centers for more than 30 years. We welcome the Fitcorp team and look forward to building upon their success as well as expanding on their unique expertise with corporate clients.”

Fourth Quarter Ended December 31, 2012 Financial Results:

Revenue (in thousands):

	Quarter Ended December 31,
	2012					2011
	Revenue		% Revenue			Revenue		% Revenue			% Variance

Personal training revenue		14,772		12.9	%		15,142		13.1	%		(2.4	)%
Other ancillary club revenue		5,997		5.3	%		5,778		5.0	%		3.8	%
Ancillary club revenue		20,769		18.2	%		20,920		18.1	%		(0.7	)%
Fees and other revenue		942		0.8	%		1,421		1.2	%		(33.7	)%
Total revenue	$	114,216		100.0	%	$	115,813		100.0	%		(1.4	)%

Total revenue for Q4 2012 decreased $1.6 million, or 1.4%, compared to Q4 2011. The decrease in revenue for Q4 2012 is primarily comprised of a $1.4 million decrease at our clubs opened or acquired prior to December 31, 2010 and a decrease of $514,000 due to a reduction in fees and other revenue related to education and laundry services. These decreases were partially offset by an increase of $530,000 at the two clubs opened or acquired subsequent to December 31, 2010 (both opened in Q4 2011).

Q4 2012 revenues were negatively impacted as a result of lost operating days due to Hurricane Sandy. At the height of the storm, 131 of our 160 clubs were closed with 16 clubs that remained closed for over a week and two clubs which still remain closed.

Operating expenses:

	Quarter Ended December 31,
	2012			2011			Expense %
	Expense % of Revenue						Increase (Decrease)
Payroll and related		39.7	%		37.9	%		3.3	%
Club operating		37.6	%		37.5	%		(1.2	)%
General and administrative		5.6	%		5.3	%		4.7	%
Depreciation and amortization		10.5	%		11.0	%		(5.8	)%
Impairment of fixed assets		2.8	%		—	%		100.0	%
Operating expenses		96.2	%		91.7	%		3.4	%

Total operating expenses increased 3.4% for Q4 2012 compared to Q4 2011. Operating margin was 3.8% for Q4 2012 compared to 8.3% for Q4 2011.

Payroll and related. The increase in payroll and related expenses in Q4 2012 was primarily related to a $2.5 million bonus payment made in connection with the special dividend paid during Q4 2012, which was partially offset by reductions in club related payroll; including lower bonuses and lower revenue based pay.

General and administrative. The increase in general and administrative expenses in Q4 2012 was primarily related to legal fees and dividend administration expenses incurred in connection with the payment and administration of the special cash dividend payment paid during Q4 2012.

Depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense for Q4 2012 decreased primarily due to a decline in our depreciable fixed asset base. Contributing to this was our limited number of club openings over the past five years.

Impairment of fixed assets. In Q4 2012, we recorded fixed asset impairment charges of $3.2 million related to the write-off of fixed assets at four of our clubs that sustained damages from Hurricane Sandy.

Net loss for Q4 2012 was $453,000 compared to net income of $3.3 million for Q4 2011.

Full-Year Ended December 31, 2012 Financial Results

For the full-year ended December 31, 2012, total revenue increased $12.0 million, or 2.6%, compared to full-year 2011. Operating margin was 8.7% for 2012 compared to 7.6% for 2011. In 2012, we recorded fixed asset impairment charges and loss on extinguishment of debt of $3.4 million and $1.0 million, respectively. In 2011, we recorded loss on extinguishment of debt of $4.9 million and no fixed asset impairments. Net income for 2012 was $12.0 million compared to $6.3 million in 2011.

Cash flow from operating activities for full-year 2012 totaled $60.1 million, a decrease of $14.8 million from full-year 2011. Cash flow related to income taxes impacted the change in cash flows as 2011 cash flows benefitted from a net tax refund of $6.6 million while in 2012 net taxes of $836,000 were paid. This decrease was also driven by reductions in cash flows resulting from the timing of payments and collections made associated with prepaid expenses, accounts payable and accrued expenses and deferred revenues.

First Quarter 2013 Financial Outlook:

Based on the current business environment, recent performance and current trends in the marketplace and subject to the risks and uncertainties inherent in forward-looking statements, our outlook for the first quarter of 2013 includes the following:

• Revenue for Q1 2013 is expected to be between $119.0 million and $120.0 million versus $122.9 million for Q1 2012. As percentages of revenue, we expect Q1 2013 payroll and related expenses to approximate 37.5% and club operating expenses to approximate 37.0%. We expect general and administrative expenses to approximate $7.5 million, depreciation and amortization to approximate $12.1 million and net interest expense to approximate $5.4 million.

• We expect net income for Q1 2013 to be between $3.5 million and $4.0 million, and diluted earnings per share to be in the range of $0.15 per share to $0.17 per share, assuming a 39% effective tax rate and 24 million weighted average fully diluted shares outstanding.

• We estimate that EBITDA will approximate $23.5 million in Q1 2013.

Investing Activities Outlook:

For the year ending December 31, 2013, we currently plan to invest $37.0 million to $42.0 million in capital expenditures compared to $22.5 million of capital expenditures in 2012. This amount includes approximately $11.5 million to $17.0 million related to potential 2013 and 2014 club openings, inclusive of amounts for our planned acquisition of the Fitcorp chain in Boston and planned renovations at these clubs as well as a separate single club acquisition in Manhattan. The total capital expenditures also includes approximately $17.0 million to $18.0 million to continue enhancing or upgrading existing clubs and approximately $4.5 million to $5.0 million principally related to major renovations at clubs with recent lease renewals and to upgrade our in-club entertainment system network. We also expect to invest approximately $2.5 million to $3.0 million to enhance our management information and communication systems. We expect these capital expenditures to be funded by cash flow provided by operations and available cash on hand.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures – EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA consists of net income plus interest expense (net of interest income), provision for corporate income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is the Company’s EBITDA excluding loss on extinguishment of debt, any fixed asset or goodwill impairments and, in the case of Q4 2012 and full year-2012, charges in connection with the Company’s special dividend payment and incremental share-based compensation expense resulting from option modifications. EBITDA is not a measure of liquidity or financial performance presented in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA, as we define it, may not be identical to similarly titled measures used by some other companies.

EBITDA has material limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for cash flows from operating activities, operating income or other cash flow or income data prepared in accordance with GAAP. The items excluded from EBITDA, but included in the calculation of reported net income, are significant components of the consolidated statements of cash flows and income, and must be considered in performing a comprehensive assessment of our liquidity.

EBITDA excludes, among other items, the effect of depreciation and amortization, which is a significant component of our reported GAAP data. Depreciation and amortization, which is a non-cash item, totaled $12.0 million in the quarter ended December 31, 2012. Although a premise underlying depreciation and amortization is that it will be reinvested in our business to restore, replenish or purchase property, equipment and other related assets, the funds represented by depreciation and amortization could, in the Company’s discretion, be utilized for other purposes (e.g., debt service). Accordingly, EBITDA may be useful as a supplemental measure to GAAP financial data for demonstrating our ability to satisfy our liquidity and capital resource requirements.

Investors or prospective investors in the Company regularly request EBITDA as a supplemental analytical measure to, and in conjunction with, our GAAP financial data. We understand that these investors use EBITDA, among other things, to assess our ability to service our existing debt and to incur debt in the future, to evaluate our executive compensation programs, to assess our ability to fund our capital expenditure program, and to gain insight into the manner in which the Company’s management and board of directors analyze our liquidity. We believe that investors find the inclusion of EBITDA in our press releases to be useful and helpful to them.

Our management and board of directors also use EBITDA as a supplemental measure to our GAAP financial data for purposes broadly similar to those used by investors.

The purposes to which EBITDA may be used by investors, and is used by our management and board of directors, include the following:

• The Company is required to comply with financial covenants and borrowing limitations that are based on variations of EBITDA as defined in our 2011 Senior Credit Facility, as amended.

• Our discussions with prospective lenders and investors in recent years, including in relation to our 2011 Senior Credit Facility, have confirmed the importance of EBITDA in their decision-making processes relating to the making of loans to us or investing in our debt securities.

• The Company uses EBITDA as a key factor in determining annual incentive bonuses for executive officers (as discussed in our proxy statement).

• The Company considers EBITDA to be a useful supplemental measure to GAAP financial data because it indicates our ability to generate funds sufficient to make capital expenditures (including for the opening of new clubs and the upgrading of existing clubs) as well as to undertake initiatives to enhance our business by offering new products and services in accordance with our strategy.

• Quarterly, equity analysts who follow our company often report on our EBITDA with respect to valuation commentary.

Adjusted EBITDA has similar uses and limitations as EBITDA. We do not, and investors should not, place undue reliance on EBITDA or Adjusted EBITDA as a measure of our liquidity.
