Risk & Legal
Beef 'O' Brady's presents moderate-to-cautionary risk due to shrinking unit base, undisclosed profitability metrics, and high capital requirements relative to average unit volumes.
Score breakdown · what drove the 56 / 100 rating
- 01MINORUnit count declining 2.9% YoY (125 units) indicates system contraction and potential market saturation
- 02MEDNet income not disclosed in Item 19 prevents accurate ROI analysis and profitability assessment
- 03MINORHigh initial investment ($812,850–$1,457,375) with 5% royalty requires $1.7M+ annual revenue just to break even on capital
- 04MINORAverage revenue of $1.7M is modest for casual dining; profitability unclear without net income data
- 05MINOR10-year term locks franchisee into declining brand; exit/renewal risk if trend continues
