Scoop Soldiers

Financial Performance
Item 19 Financial Performance
Data Based On: 3 Company Owned Outlets for 2024 Calendar Year
* The document provides financial data for 3 Company Owned Outlets for the 2024 Calendar Year in Tables 2 and 3. While the document mentions it will report data for Operational Franchise Territories, that data is not present in the provided pages. Therefore, company-owned data is used. The 'Average' value in Table 3 ($239,485.69) was identified as the sum of Gross Sales for the 3 individual Company Owned Outlets listed in Table 2. The average gross revenue per company-owned outlet was calculated as this sum divided by 3: $239,485.69 / 3 = $79,828.56. The Median ($81,101.09), High ($92,686.58), and Low ($65,698.02) gross sales are explicitly stated in Table 3 and correspond to individual Company Owned Outlets (Salt Lake City, Seattle, and Washington, D.C., respectively). Due to the small sample size (3 outlets), the 'High' and 'Low' values are used as approximations for top and bottom quartile revenues, respectively. No data on costs, expenses, profits, or EBITDA was provided, so related fields are null.
