Financial Performance
Item 19 Financial Performance
Data Based On: 17 franchise Centers open for one year or more as of December 31, 2025, and which properly reported their sales for each of the twelve (12) months in 2025.
* Average gross revenue is null as the data only provides the highest and lowest net sales for a sample of 17 franchise units, without sufficient segmentation or an overall average to calculate a weighted average. Revenue top quartile is taken from the 'Highest' Net Sales value ($1,062,596). Revenue bottom quartile is taken from the 'Lowest' Net Sales value ($99,981). No profit or expense data (COGS, operating expenses, etc.) is provided for the franchise units, so profit-related metrics are null.
