Data Based On: 58 franchisee-owned Woodcraft Retail Stores open for the entire 12-month period ended December 31, 2024.
* Weighted average of Gross Revenues for the Bottom 50% (29 units) and Top 50% (29 units) segments was calculated as (29 * 1499246 + 29 * 2313520) / (29 + 29) = 1906383, which matches the 'All Franchisee-Owned Stores' average. The document explicitly states that 'operating costs or other costs and expenses' are not included in the 'Average Gross Profit' presented, therefore this figure is not considered 'average_net_profit' or 'average_net_income' as defined, and no profit range could be estimated.
