Top Quartile Revenue

Data Based On: 217 Territories that were in operation for the entire 2025 fiscal year.

* The 'average_gross_revenue' was taken from the 'TOTALS' row of 'Average Territory Gross Revenue in Group' in Table 1. This value was verified by calculating a weighted average using the 'Number of Territories in Group' and 'Average Territory Gross Revenue in Group' for each quartile: (54 * $1,147,855 + 54 * $491,601 + 54 * $238,904 + 55 * $101,689) / (54 + 54 + 54 + 55) = $493,199.70, which rounds to the reported $493,200. The 'median_gross_revenue' was taken from the 'TOTALS' row of 'Median Territory Gross Revenue' in Table 1. 'revenue_top_quartile' is the 'Average Territory Gross Revenue in Group' for 'Quartile 1 (Top 25%)', and 'revenue_bottom_quartile' is for 'Quartile 4 (Bottom 25%)'. No explicit gross profit, net income, net profit, or EBITDA figures for franchised units were found; Table 7 explicitly covered 'COMPANY-OWNED TERRITORIES' and was excluded as per instructions.
