Lawn Squad
Lawn Squad franchises provide residential and commercial weed control, lawn care, and related services under a proprietary system that includes standardized operations, training, equipment, and marketing. The franchisor's business model involves licensing the Lawn Squad brand and system to qualified franchisees who operate from approved locations, often serving multiple territories. They target homeowners and businesses seeking professional lawn maintenance solutions.

Financial Performance
Item 19 Financial Performance
Data Based On: 7 Territories (4 franchisees) that were in operation for the entire 2025 fiscal year.
* Average and median gross revenue are taken from Table 4 'GROSS REVENUE PER TERRITORY (For the Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2025)' on page 4. This table reports on 7 franchised territories (4 franchisees) that were in operation for the entire 2025 fiscal year. This data was prioritized over the aggregate systemwide franchisee revenue from Table 1, which included 19 territories but did not specify if all were operational for the full year, potentially leading to a less representative average for a fully operational unit. No explicit profit, net income, net profit, or EBITDA figures were provided for franchised units.
