Item 19 Financial Performance
Data Based On: 54 franchised Medi-Weightloss Businesses that reported expenses for Fiscal Year 2023. This excludes company-owned and licensed businesses.
* All financial figures are based on the 'All 54 Reporting Businesses Regardless of size of Marketing Spend' table on page 6 of the FDD. 'average_net_profit' is taken from 'Net Income Before Other Expenses', which is defined in Note 10 (page 7) as Gross Sales minus Cost of Goods Sold, Selected Operating Expenses, and Royalty Fees. Note 11 (page 7) clarifies that 'Net Income Before Other Expenses' does not include other costs such as insurance, processing fees, taxes, professional services, etc., which would further reduce actual net income. Therefore, 'average_net_income' is set to null as a comprehensive net income figure (after all expenses) is not provided. 'best_guess_profit_high' is set to the reported 'average_net_profit' ($180,922), representing the most optimistic profit before additional excluded costs. 'best_guess_profit_low' is set to the average 'Net Income Before Other Expenses' of the lowest performing segment ($77,149 from the 'Marketing Spend Less Than $1,500 per Month' group on page 5), providing a conservative estimate of average profit.
