Data Based On: Results achieved in 2025 by seventeen (17) representative franchisees, broken down by years open cohorts (Year 1, Year 2, Year 3, Year 4, Legacy), presented as Top, Average, Low, and Median performers.

* All average and median values for Gross Revenue and EBITDA (and EBITDA %) were calculated by taking the simple average across the five cohorts (Year 1, Year 2, Year 3, Year 4, and Legacy) presented in the respective 'Average Performer', 'Median Performer', 'Top Performer', and 'Low Performer' tables for franchised locations. This approach was used due to the absence of specific unit counts per cohort, which would be required for a weighted average. 'best_guess_profit_high' is set to the calculated 'average_ebitda'. 'best_guess_profit_low' is estimated by reducing the 'average_ebitda' by 25% to account for potential interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, which are not included in EBITDA. This 25% reduction is an estimation based on common financial practices and the information that EBITDA does not include interest costs or debt service amounts for franchised locations.
