Financial Performance
Item 19 Financial Performance
Data Based On: 61 U.S. and international Franchisees that were active on a full-time basis during January 1, 2024 through December 31, 2024, operating 83 CRESTCOM Business outlets. These are the franchisees included in the computations for the first four charts.
* All values for average gross revenue, median gross revenue, revenue top quartile, and revenue bottom quartile are directly extracted from CHART 1: AVERAGE AND MEDIAN FRANCHISEE GROSS SALES, WORLDWIDE, BY PERCENTILE. The 'Combined Average - U.S. and International Franchisees' row provided the overall average and median gross sales. The 75th-99.99th percentile average was used for 'revenue_top_quartile', and the 0-24.99th percentile average was used for 'revenue_bottom_quartile'. Footnote (7) explicitly states that no attempt is made to estimate potential profits, income, or earnings in the first four charts, and Chart 5's gross margin information is per participant for materials, not a franchise unit's overall profit. Therefore, net income, net profit, EBITDA, and profit range estimates are set to null.
