Bowman is a seasoned executive and three-time public company CFO with more than 30 years of experience across the retail, restaurant, consumer goods and manufacturing industries. He served as CFO at Leslie’s Inc., a $1.5 billion publicly held pool supply retailer from 2023 to 2025; at True Food Kitchen, a $270 million privately held restaurant company rooted in nutritional science, from 2021 to 2023; at Dave & Buster’s, a $1.4 billion publicly held dining and entertainment company, from 2019 to 2021; and at Hibbett Sports, a $1 billion publicly held athletic specialty retailer that was subsequently acquired by JD Sports, from 2012 to 2019.

He holds a bachelor of science degree in accounting and finance from Miami University of Ohio and an MBA from Emory Goizueta Business School. He also holds a CPA designation.

Bowman will replace departing CFO Jake Singleton, who joined the company as corporate controller in 2015 and became CFO in 2018.

“Over the past ten years, Jake has played a key role in our journey, guiding our financial strategy through pivotal moments,” Razdan said. “We are incredibly grateful for his many contributions and steady leadership, and we wish him the very best in his next chapter.”

“The Joint is executing a multiphase strategy to reignite growth, reduce overhead and improve profitability,” said Bowman. “I am excited to help facilitate the transformation to a pure play franchisor and work with the team as we strive for our long-term goal of becoming America’s most accessible health and wellness services company, all of which will create value for our stakeholders.”
