Financial Performance
Item 19 Financial Performance
Data Based On: 96 franchised outlets (18 Plant Plus Satellite units, 40 Plant Only units, 38 Satellite Only units) open a minimum of 1 year as of December 31st, 2025, used for Sales Metrics data.
* Calculated weighted average revenue: (18 Plant Plus Satellite units × $1,129,113.20 + 40 Plant Only units × $539,014.55 + 38 Satellite Only units × $376,665.20) / 96 total units = $585,394.76. Profit estimates (best_guess_profit_low, best_guess_profit_high) are set to null because the 'Net Controllable Income' explicitly excludes many significant expenses (e.g., rent, taxes, legal, accounting, interest, depreciation, owner compensation), making it an incomplete measure of final profit.
