Data Based On: 41 franchised units operating a total of 62 territories, open and operating for the entire Relevant Time Period (12 months ended December 31, 2024).

* Average and median gross revenues are taken directly from 'SECTION A – TOTAL FRANCHISE GROSS REVENUES' on page 2. Revenue for top quartile is the 'Average Gross Revenues' of the First Quartile ($1,170,150) from page 3. Revenue for bottom quartile is the 'Average Gross Revenues' of the Fourth Quartile ($197,485) from page 5. The overall sample size (41 franchises operating 62 territories) mentioned in the text on page 2 is used for proof of concept, as this is the population for the 'Total Franchise Gross Revenues'. No net income, net profit, or EBITDA data is provided, as explicitly stated in the 'NOTES' section on page 7 that figures reflect gross revenues, not profits, and do not include costs of sales, operating expenses, or other costs and expenses required to obtain net income or profit. Therefore, profit estimates are null.
