Risk & Legal

71
Risk · 0-100
CAUTION71 / 100

Extremely early-stage franchise with corporate financial distress indicators, minimal unit base, and opaque profitability data creates substantial investment risk.

Score breakdown · what drove the 71 / 100 rating

  1. 01MINOROnly 2 units in entire system indicates minimal scale and unproven franchise model replicability
  2. 02HIGHGoing Concern designation suggests financial instability or solvency questions at corporate level
  3. 03MEDNo disclosed net income data prevents accurate ROI validation and profitability assessment
  4. 04MINORHigh franchise fee ($48,000) relative to tiny unit count raises sustainability concerns about franchisor viability
  5. 05MINORUnknown growth trajectory with only 2 units creates uncertainty about system expansion capability
  6. 06MED5% royalty on $922K average revenue = $46K annual ongoing fee compressed against undisclosed net margins
  7. 07HIGHNo litigation disclosure combined with 'Going Concern' status suggests potential unreported legal or financial issues
