Item 19 Financial Performance
Data Based On: 84 franchised locations representing 191 individual Assisting Hands Businesses in operation for 12 months or longer (and some less than 12 months but part of reporting group) during the 2024 calendar year, plus 5 affiliate locations.
* Calculated average, median, and quartiles from a list of individual Assisting Hands Business revenues. For each of the 84 reported franchised locations, the 'Gross Revenue' provided was divided by the 'Number of Assisting Hands Businesses' at that location to derive a 'revenue per business' figure. This 'revenue per business' was then added to a master list for each of the 'Number of Assisting Hands Businesses' at that location. The final statistics were computed on this expanded list of 191 individual business revenues. For example, a location with 4 businesses and $7,297,979 gross revenue contributes 4 entries of $7,297,979 / 4 = $1,824,494.75 to the list.
