Financial Performance

Item 19 Financial Performance

Data Based On: Chart 1 provides historical results for 1119 Select Motel 6 Franchised Motels, active and operating as franchised properties for at least two full years as of December 31, 2025, for the 12-month period ending December 31, 2025. Chart 2 provides data for 539 franchised Motels (a subset of Chart 1) with A or B Ranking Scores for the same period.

* The document provides Average Occupancy Rate, Average Daily Rate, and Average RevPAR (Revenue Per Available Room). These are daily per-room metrics, not the total average gross revenue per franchise unit as defined in the prompt (typically $100K - $10M). Therefore, fields such as average_gross_revenue, median_gross_revenue, revenue_top_quartile, and revenue_bottom_quartile are set to null. No information on gross profit, net income, net profit, or EBITDA, or expenses to estimate profit ranges, is available.
