Financial Performance
Item 19 Financial Performance
Data Based On: Data from 2 franchised outlets (Outlet #1 and Outlet #2) for 2025, as presented in Table 2 on Page 3.
* Calculated average gross revenue from the two franchised outlets: ($627,783 + $186,392) / 2 = $407,087.5. The median gross revenue is the same due to only two data points. Revenue for the top quartile is the highest outlet's revenue ($627,783), and for the bottom quartile is the lowest outlet's revenue ($186,392). Best guess profit range (EBITDA) estimated by applying the range of affiliate outlet EBITDA margins (17.3% for Austin, 32.9% for Dallas from Table 1, Page 2) to the average franchised gross revenue, based on the statement on Page 1 that 'Affiliate-Owned Outlets operate in a substantially similar manner to how franchised outlets will operate.' Low estimate: $407,087.5 * 0.173 = $70,426.14. High estimate: $407,087.5 * 0.329 = $133,931.79.
