Data Based On: 10 Turbo Tint Stores open for the full year 2024, as presented in Sales Table 1, and 8 Turbo Tint Stores open for the full year 2024, as presented in GPM Table 2, during the Measurement Period (January 1, 2024 to December 31, 2024).

* Average Gross Revenue was calculated as a weighted average across the two sales ranges in Sales Table 1: (2 stores × $874,239.90 + 8 stores × $451,203.33) / 10 total stores = $535,810.64. Note that this calculated value differs from the 'Average Gross Sales' ($662,721.62) provided in the 'TOTAL' row of Sales Table 1, but the weighted average was used as per instructions for segmented data. Median Gross Revenue derived from the 'Median Sales' in the 'TOTAL' row of Sales Table 1. Revenue Top Quartile uses the 'Average Gross Sales' from 'Range 1' in Sales Table 1 (representing the top 20% of stores). Revenue Bottom Quartile uses the 'Average Gross Sales' from 'Range 2' in Sales Table 1 (representing the lower 80% of stores). Best guess profit range (low/high) could not be determined as 'Gross Profit Margin' from GPM Table 2 explicitly excludes significant operating expenses (rent, royalty fees, advertising, taxes, start-up costs, insurance) and no further information on these expenses was provided.
