Item 19 Financial Performance
Data Based On: 14 Window Hero franchisees operating for at least 12 months and reported revenue for the full 12 months ending December 31, 2024.
* Average gross revenue and median gross revenue were taken directly from the 'Total' row of the 'Part I: Gross Revenues for Window Hero Businesses for the Full 12 Months Ending December 31, 2024' table. Revenue top quartile is the average of the 'Top 50%' segment, and revenue bottom quartile is the average of the 'Bottom 50%' segment. Weighted average gross profit margin was calculated as (7 units * 67.09% + 7 units * 54.74%) / 14 total units = 60.915%. Average gross profit was calculated by multiplying the average gross revenue by the weighted average gross profit margin (662,634 * 0.60915 = 403,643.50). Weighted average EBITDA margin was calculated as (7 units * 27.02% + 7 units * 9.71%) / 14 total units = 18.365%. Average EBITDA was calculated by multiplying the average gross revenue by the weighted average EBITDA margin (662,634 * 0.18365 = 121,692.73). Best guess profit high is set to the calculated average EBITDA. Best guess profit low is estimated using the average gross revenue multiplied by the 'Bottom 50%' average EBITDA margin (662,634 * 9.71% = 64,341.76).
