Financial Performance
Item 19 Financial Performance
Data Based On: 25 Reporting Franchised Outlets that operated for the full 2025 calendar year and completed their first full calendar year of operation on December 31, 2025.
* Average gross revenue for 'All Reporting Franchised Outlets (25)' was taken directly from Table 2.A. Verified by calculating weighted average from segments: (20 outlets * $535,458 + 5 outlets * $164,111) / 25 outlets = $461,188.6, which closely matches the reported average of $461,189. 'Top 1/3' and 'Bottom 1/3' values were used for top and bottom quartile revenues, respectively, as per the table structure. No gross profit, net income, net profit, or EBITDA data were provided for franchised outlets. The document explicitly states that expense data from Affiliate-Owned Business tables (1.A, 1.B) should not be used for franchised outlets, hence no best-guess profit range could be estimated.
