Data Based On: 2025 Calendar Year - Franchised Centers data for 17 franchised outlets and 2025 Calendar Year (US SYSTEM) T12M Reporting Stores data for 14 franchised outlets.

* Average Gross Revenue ($492,488) from 'Average of Top 100% of Stores' and Median Gross Revenue ($411,246) from 'Median of All Stores' are based on the '2025 Calendar Year - Franchised Centers' table. These figures represent 17 franchised outlets in total, as stated in the preceding text. The counts in the table for these specific averages (6 centers for 'Average of Top 100%' and 9 centers for 'Median of All Stores') are inconsistent with the stated total sample size of 17. Revenue top quartile ($1,062,810) from 'Average of Top 25% of Stores' and Revenue bottom quartile ($139,393) from 'Average of Bottom 25% of Stores' are also extracted from this table. Average Gross Profit was calculated as Average Sales ($578,259) multiplied by Average GM (63.4% or 0.634), yielding $366,616.21. This gross profit data is from '2025 Calendar Year (US SYSTEM) T12M Reporting Stores (14 Stores)', which is a different sample size (14 stores) than the 17 stores used for the primary revenue figures.
