Financial Performance
Item 19 Financial Performance
Data Based On: 66 franchised outlets open for the full 2025 Fiscal Year for revenue data. Gross Profit and expense data are based on 51 Reporting Franchisees operating for at least two full years as of December 31, 2024.
* Average and median gross revenue are taken directly from the 'Total' row of the A(1) Combined Multi-Territory and Single-Territory Franchisees table (Page 2). Revenue top quartile is the average from the 'Greater than $1M' segment, and revenue bottom quartile is the average from the 'Less than $300K' segment within the same table. Average gross profit is taken directly from the 'Gross Profit Margin' row in the 'REVENUE MINUS COGS AND CERTAIN MARKETING & OPERATING EXPENSES EXCLUDING PAYROLL' table (Page 3), based on 51 Reporting Franchisees with average revenue of $813,066. The figure 'Total Revenue Less Cost of Goods Sold and Certain Required Marketing & Operating Expenses' is $168,933, representing 20.8% of average revenue for the 51 Reporting Franchisees. The document explicitly states there are 'additional costs and expenses that are not reflected in this Section B'. Assuming these additional costs range from 5% (optimistic for high profit) to 15% (conservative for low profit) of the average revenue for this cohort ($813,066), the estimated profit range is calculated as: Best guess profit low = $168,933 - (0.15 * $813,066) = $46,973. Best guess profit high = $168,933 - (0.05 * $813,066) = $128,280.

Water conservation meets franchise opportunity in Conserva Irrigation, a home services brand that's been expanding since 2017 with proprietary systems for irrigation repair and design. Item 19 unveils revenue figures that suggest strong earning potential for operators in urban and suburban territories, while SBA lending data hints at accessible financing. Yet with notable terminations and transfers in recent years, does this system's modest growth trajectory signal stability or underlying challenges worth probing?
Franchising since 2017 under Empower Brands, Conserva has grown steadily from 202 locations in 2024 to 210 in 2025—a 4% increase—though projected new units sit at just 3, indicating cautious expansion. Item 7 outlines initial investments of $125,800-$159,500, including a $49,500 franchise fee, with ongoing fees comprising tiered royalties (8% dropping to 5% on gross revenue), 1.5% brand/ad fund, $490/month tech fee, and $300/month digital marketing. Item 19 discloses average gross revenue of $773,337 and median $543,386 across units, translating to estimated profits of $46,973-$128,280 after expenses, a solid range for a service-based model emphasizing maintenance contracts.
System health shows some turbulence: 12 terminations, 2 non-renewals, and 21 transfers over the disclosure period, higher activity than ideal and potentially flagging operational hurdles or franchisee dissatisfaction. Positively, 47 SBA loans average $166,087 with a low 4.3% default rate, easing entry for qualified buyers. For investors, the revenue disclosure and low-cost entry make Conserva appealing versus flashier home services, but the churn metrics demand scrutiny of local market saturation and support quality before committing.
