Item 19 Financial Performance
Data Based On: Data based on two company-owned 'standard locations' (Club #1 and Club #2) for Fiscal Year 2024. These locations' financials were adjusted to reflect what they would have paid had they been franchised locations, and reflect an owner-operator model, as described in the General Comments of Item 19.
* Average gross revenue, average EBITDA, and EBITDA margin percentage were calculated by taking the simple average of the FY 2024 figures for Club #1 (Gladstone, NJ) and Club #2 (Middletown, RI). The `best_guess_profit_low` and `best_guess_profit_high` were set to the average EBITDA, as no explicit range for profit was provided beyond the singular EBITDA figures.
