PAINTER BROS

Painter Bros franchisees operate painting businesses providing professional residential and commercial painting services to the public, businesses, and government agencies using proprietary methods, systems, top-of-the-line products, and attention to detail. Franchisees receive training, support, proprietary bidding software, and access to larger national accounts, with additional revenue streams from ancillary services such as facility maintenance, paint or graffiti removal, and handyman-type repairs. The business model focuses on franchising these services in defined territories, targeting residential customers, commercial entities, and government clients in a competitive market.

Median Gross Revenue

Data Based On: 26 franchised territories operating for the full 12 months of 2024, as presented in the 'Franchise Outlets - Gross Sales' table.

* Average gross revenue and median gross revenue were extracted directly from the 'Franchise Outlets - Gross Sales' table on page 2. Gross Profit data is provided for 12 franchisees on page 3, but the FDD's 'General Notes' (page 5, Note 3) explicitly state that 'Gross profit means pre-taxed revenue less COGS. These figures do not list all expenses.' This indicates that the provided Gross Profit is before other significant operating expenses (e.g., wages, insurance, utilities, marketing, etc.). While royalty (5%) and advertising/technology ('as much or more' than 5%) expenses for franchisees are mentioned in footnote 1 on page 1 for affiliate outlets, comprehensive percentages or ranges for *all* operating expenses are not provided for franchisees. Therefore, there is insufficient information to reliably calculate average net income, average net profit, average EBITDA, or a best guess profit range as per the instructions.
