Financial Performance
Item 19 Financial Performance
Data Based On: Data based on 8 affiliate company store outlets for 2024, of which 6 operated for the entire calendar year and 2 opened part way through.
* Calculated average, median, top 25% (average of top 2 units), and bottom 25% (average of bottom 2 units) for Gross Revenue using data from 8 company-owned outlets for 2024. Profit estimates (net income, net profit, EBITDA) could not be determined as the document explicitly states that 'costs of sales, operating expenses, or other costs or expenses' are not reflected in the provided figures, and no typical ranges or percentages for these additional expenses were given. The 'Adjusted Gross Revenues as if a Franchised Outlet' accounts for Royalties (6%) and Local Advertising (greater of 1.5% of Gross Revenues or $2,000/month), but these are not final profit figures.

Imagine launching a preschool with a twist: dual-language immersion in Spanish and Mandarin right from infancy. WorldKids School, a fresh entrant in early childhood education, provides Item 19 financial performance data that hints at strong early traction despite its youth. But with only a handful of corporate spots and modest expansion plans, does this niche player have the momentum to scale your investment?
Item 7 lays out the initial investment from $195,000 to $591,500, covering build-out for small, medium, or large facilities—think 2,000 to 10,000 sq ft spaces tailored for tiny learners. The $80,000 franchise fee buys proprietary curricula, training in Seattle HQ, and marketing support. Ongoing fees hit 6% royalty plus 2% brand fund, plus extras like $2,000/mo local ads (or 1.5%), $25/mo POS, and $99-$235/mo QuickBooks. Item 19 shines here: across units, average gross revenue clocks $1,643,981 with a median of $991,368—impressive for a brand franchising since 2024, suggesting top performers crush it in high-demand parent markets.
System health shows 8 corporate locations and just 1 projected new unit, signaling cautious growth in a competitive kid-ed space. No red flags on terminations or transfers in the FDD, but the youth means limited franchisee track record. For buyers eyeing $1M+ revenue potential in underserved bilingual niches, this could yield solid ROI if you nail location and ops—but vet local demand closely, as median lags average, pointing to variability.
