DENVER--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb 3, 2026--
The Exclusive Collective and Inspirato today jointly announce the completed acquisition of Inspirato Incorporated (“Inspirato”) by Exclusive Investments, LLC (“Exclusive Investments”).
Under the terms of the transaction, Exclusive Investments acquired all outstanding shares of Inspirato Class A common stock for $4.27 per share in an all-cash transaction, valuing Inspirato at an equity value of approximately $59 million on a fully diluted basis. The purchase price represented an approximately 50% premium to Inspirato’s closing price on December 16, 2025, the last trading day prior to the original announcement. Following closing, Inspirato became a privately held company, and its Class A common stock is no longer listed or traded on Nasdaq.
The transaction has been unanimously approved by Inspirato's Board of Directors and approved by Inspirato's shareholders. Inspirato’s largest shareholder and former Chairman and CEO, Payam Zamani, including through his affiliated company One Planet Group, voted the shares he controls in favor of the transaction, supporting a smooth transition of ownership.
In connection with the closing, Payam Zamani stepped down from his executive role at Inspirato. James Henderson, Chief Executive Officer of The Exclusive Collective and Exclusive Resorts, has assumed the role of Interim CEO of Inspirato while a search for a permanent successor is underway.
James Henderson added, “As Inspirato celebrates 15 years, joining The Exclusive Collective allows the brand to operate with greater clarity, stability, and confidence—focused squarely on delivering exceptional travel experiences today and into the future. We're excited to welcome Inspirato as a marquee pillar within our portfolio, supporting meaningful travel across all stages of life.”
Legal and advisory support for the transaction included Latham & Watkins LLP serving as legal counsel to Exclusive Investments LLC; Roth Capital Partners, LLC as financial advisor, and Davis Graham & Stubbs LLP as legal advisor to Inspirato.
