Data Based On: 39 franchised CD Stores (33 Plant Stores and 6 Satellite Stores) operated for the entire 2024 Fiscal Year.

* Average gross revenue calculated as a weighted average of 33 Plant Stores and 6 Satellite Stores: (33 * $1,072,352 + 6 * $333,350) / 39 = $958,659. Revenue top quartile is the average for the Top Third Plant Stores ($1,371,959). Revenue bottom quartile is the average for the Bottom Third Plant Stores ($800,894). No single overall median gross revenue was provided for all 39 stores. Profit range estimated based on average cost percentages from tables and unlisted costs. Listed costs (Occupancy, Labor, Production/Service Supplies, Natural Gas & Electricity) ranged from 58.7% (Stand-Alone Plant Stores) to 61.9% (Plant Store/Satellite Store Combination). Unlisted costs (royalty, marketing, PUD fees, advertising, software, legal, office/janitorial, cleaning, repairs, licenses, utilities, insurance, interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, vehicle costs) were estimated to range from 12% (optimistic, for royalty/marketing + other costs) to 25% (conservative, for royalty/marketing + other costs) of gross revenue. Best Guess Profit High: (100% - (58.7% (min listed costs) + 12% (min additional costs))) * $958,659 = 29.3% * $958,659 = $280,788. Best Guess Profit Low: (100% - (61.9% (max listed costs) + 25% (max additional costs))) * $958,659 = 13.1% * $958,659 = $125,584.
