Data Based On: 73 single-unit franchised businesses open for the full 12 months in 2025.

* All unit-level financial performance data was extracted from Table A-1: '2025 Average and Median Gross Sales for Franchised Businesses Open Full 12 Months in 2025 (Single-Unit Operators)'. The '100%' row provided the overall average and median gross revenue for the 73 single-unit operators. The 'Top 25%' and 'Bottom 25%' rows provided the respective quartile averages. Table A-2 data for multi-unit operators was excluded for unit-level averages because the FDD explicitly states, 'we do not have available separate "unit-level" Gross Sales data for those 81 Reporting Businesses' operated by these franchisees; only aggregated franchisee-level data is presented in that table. No information on gross profit, net income, net profit, EBITDA, or expense data was provided, preventing estimation of profit ranges.
