Financial Performance
Item 19 Financial Performance
Data Based On: Data based on 3 franchisee-owned salons (Salons 9, 11, and 12) from the provided tables.
* Calculated `average_gross_revenue` from the Gross Revenue of the 3 franchisee-owned salons (Salons 9, 11, and 12) specified on Page 3. Calculated `median_gross_revenue` from the sorted Gross Revenue of the same 3 franchisee-owned salons. `revenue_top_quartile` and `revenue_bottom_quartile` are set to null as the provided quartile summary table includes corporate and affiliate-owned units, and with only 3 franchisee units, clear quartiles cannot be formed. `average_ebitda` was calculated from the 'Adj. EBITDA' figures of the 3 franchisee-owned salons. `ebitda_margin_pct` was calculated as `average_ebitda` / `average_gross_revenue`. `average_gross_profit`, `average_net_income`, and `average_net_profit` are set to null because the document explicitly states that the 'Total Expenses' listed do not include all operating and non-operating costs and expenses necessary to obtain net income or profit, making an accurate calculation impossible. `best_guess_profit_low` and `best_guess_profit_high` are set to null for the same reason of incomplete expense disclosure, as any guess would be unreliable.
