Risk & Legal
101 Mobility presents moderate-to-cautious risk with minimal unit growth, opaque profitability data, and litigation history that obscures realistic earnings potential relative to investment.
Score breakdown · what drove the 42 / 100 rating
- 01MINORStagnant unit growth (0.6% YoY) suggests system maturation or contraction challenges with only 194 units
- 02MINORNo Item 19 (Average Net Income) disclosure limits ability to validate $767,913 average revenue claims or assess true profitability
- 03HIGHLitigation history shows franchisor aggressively pursued former franchisee, raising concerns about dispute resolution and relationship management
- 04MEDHigh initial investment ($181,850–$258,600) combined with undisclosed net income creates significant ROI uncertainty
- 05MINORTiered royalty structure (7% down to 5%) incentivizes growth but may compress margins for lower-revenue operators
