Financial Performance
Item 19 Financial Performance
Data Based On: 24 franchisee-owned outdoor locations open for the entire fiscal year 2023.
* Average and median gross revenue values are directly stated in the 'Financial Performance of Franchisee-Owned Outdoor Locations' table for 24 parks. No specific expense or profit breakdown is provided for these franchisee units, precluding the calculation or estimation of net income, net profit, EBITDA, or a profit range. Financial data for the affiliate-owned indoor park was not used for profit estimations due to differences in park type (indoor vs. outdoor) and revenue scale, making a direct comparison inappropriate.
