Financial Performance


Item 19 Financial Performance

Top Quartile Revenue

Bottom Quartile Revenue

Average Gross Profit
$574,215

Data Based On: 795 franchised HomeVestors Businesses in the United States that were operating through all 12 months of the Year 2025.

* The provided data is 'Gross Price Differential', defined as total sales prices less total purchase prices, and explicitly excludes other costs like repair, advertising, real estate commissions, etc. This is used as the primary profit metric for this extraction. The weighted average of the 'Average Gross Price Differential' across quartiles was calculated as (198 * $1,654,823 + 199 * $482,461 + 199 * $161,922 + 199 * $3,086) / 795 total units = $574,215.45, which confirms the reported 'All Covered Franchises' average of $574,215. The 'revenue_top_quartile' and 'revenue_bottom_quartile' fields are populated with the 'Average Gross Price Differential' from the respective quartiles as they represent the top and bottom performing segments based on this profit metric, not actual gross revenue. The overall 'Low Gross Price Differential' and 'High Gross Price Differential' are used for best_guess_profit_low and best_guess_profit_high respectively.
