Item 19 Financial Performance
Data Based On: Gross Sales data is based on 86 franchised Teriyaki Shops that met the Conditions for the 2023 calendar year. Profit and Loss statements, providing average gross profit, net profit, net income, and EBITDA, are based on 32 individual franchised shops from this 2023 Reporting Group.
* Average gross revenue, median gross revenue, top quartile revenue, and bottom quartile revenue are directly extracted from the 2023 Gross Sales Table and Quartile Tables. Average gross profit, average net profit, average net income, and average EBITDA are calculated as the simple average of 32 individual shops' Profit and Loss statement data for 2023. Average Gross Profit = Average Total Gross Sales - Average Cost of Goods Sold. Average Net Profit = Average Gross Profit - (Average Payroll & Labor Expenses + Average Occupancy Expenses + Average Other Operating Expenses). Average Net Income = Average Total Net Revenue - Average Total Expenses. EBITDA margin percentage = Average EBITDA / Average Total Gross Sales (from the P&L statements for the 32 shops).
