Financial Performance
Item 19 Financial Performance
Data Based On: 10 franchisee-owned LaundroLab businesses that had been operating under the LaundroLab name for at least 12 full calendar months for the 2024 calendar year.
* Average and median revenues, as well as EBITDA and EBITDA margin, were directly extracted from the 'All Franchisee Stores' column. Revenue for the 'Top 50%' and 'Bottom 50%' segments were used for 'revenue_top_quartile' and 'revenue_bottom_quartile' respectively. The EBITDA % was verified by dividing average_ebitda by average_gross_revenue (118677 / 537787 ≈ 0.2207, which rounds to 22%). No explicit gross profit, net income, or net profit figures were provided, nor were ranges for expenses, so related fields are set to null.
