Data Based On: Data for 36 franchised Studios that were open throughout the entire Reporting Period (January 1, 2024, to December 31, 2024). This excludes one Affiliate-Owned Studio, 24 franchised Studios that opened during the reporting period, one franchised Studio that did not report complete data due to a transfer of ownership, and eight studios that permanently closed (including one not open for 12 months prior to closing).

* All revenue data is sourced from Table 1: ANNUAL GROSS SALES FOR ALL COVERED STUDIOS DURING THE 2024 CALENDAR YEAR. The 'Average Annual Gross Sales' for 'All Covered Studios' is used for average_gross_revenue. The 'Median Annual Gross Sales' for 'All Covered Studios' is used for median_gross_revenue. The 'Average Annual Gross Sales' for the 'Top Half' is used for revenue_top_quartile. The 'Average Annual Gross Sales' for the 'Bottom Half' is used for revenue_bottom_quartile. A weighted average calculation for average_gross_revenue based on the 'Top Half' and 'Bottom Half' segments yielded (18 units * $586,907 + 18 units * $352,352) / 36 units = $469,629.5, which is consistent with the reported average of $469,629. No information on gross profit, net income, net profit, or EBITDA, nor any expense data, was provided to calculate profit estimates.
