What one unit earns on your invested capital
Model A · Single-Unit Return
Computes unlevered return on invested capital (ROIC) for a single franchise unit, read against the 30–60% reference band · Yale SOM, Post-MBA Path Exhibit 2 (2023). Below that band a passive index fund likely outperforms; above it the franchisor has pricing power you're subsidizing.
Note: Item 19 revenue is what the franchisor discloses, and it is the top line only — gross sales are not profit. No FDD discloses the operating costs that turn one into the other, so those fields start empty and nothing is modelled until you supply them from your own lease quote, labor market and build-out budget.

What 25 units return when you use SBA financing
Model B · Return on Equity: Debt-Financed Acquisition
Models a 25-unit portfolio acquisition financed with an SBA 7(a) loan. Shows equity IRR (your return on cash invested), DSCR (how safely the cash flow covers debt service), and the capital stack (SBA + seller + equity breakdown).
This is the “search fund” or “entrepreneurship through acquisition” scenario: you buy an existing multi-unit operator, use leverage to amplify returns, and either operate or hire management. The 25-unit size is the typical minimum for an SBA-backed franchise portfolio acquisition to pencil as a full-time income.
What “return on equity” means here: if you put in $500K of your own cash and the business generates enough EBITDA to pay down debt and grow, your equity IRR is the annual return on that $500K, including the value created when you eventually sell. Target IRR for a search fund is typically 25–35%.

A 25-unit return is built on a per-unit EBITDA. Fill in the operating costs in Model A above and this model runs on that figure, or take the whole scenario to the full ROI workbench, where the portfolio and LBO models accept your own per-unit economics directly.

How Benjamin Franklin Plumbing Compares
Per territory, not per outlet - the category median is per-outlet only, so no comparison is shown
Category median of published Home Services brands that report the figure; the middle half spans the 25th to 75th percentile and n counts the brands behind it. Medians are used because a few very large systems pull an average far from the typical brand. Revenue is disclosed gross sales, not profit.

Risk & Legal
Benjamin Franklin Plumbing presents moderate-to-high risk due to absence of earnings disclosure, active multi-front litigation suggesting operational/compliance weaknesses, and royalty structure that pressures unit economics below the system average.
Why this reads harsher than the A grade: the grade weighs financial health, unit economics, unit growth, scale, legal, and transparency across the whole filing, while this summary lists individual flags without that weighting. The flags are worth checking with current owners; neither is investment advice.
Litigation (Item 3)
Subject: the franchisor is a named party (plaintiff).
2 pending suits (franchisor as plaintiff): one against franchisee for underreporting/trademark misuse/non-compete violations; one against former franchisee for post-term non-compete (settled in bankruptcy proceedings). 3 concluded actions including predecessor suits against franchisees for settlement enforcement and trademark/non-compete disputes.

Who owns Benjamin Franklin Plumbing?
Benjamin Franklin Plumbing is franchised by Benjamin Franklin Franchising SPE LLC. Its parent company is AB Assetco LLC. The ultimate parent named in the FDD is Authority Brands, Inc.. Source: FDD Item 1, 2024 filing.
What is Item 19 in the Benjamin Franklin Plumbing FDD?
The FDD section where a franchisor may disclose financial performance of its outlets. Disclosure is optional and formats vary; figures are typically gross sales, which is revenue before expenses, not profit. FranchiseVerdict extracts these figures directly from the Benjamin Franklin Plumbing FDD and qualifies whose outlets they describe.
What is Benjamin Franklin Plumbing's franchise failure rate?
Based on SBA 7(a) loan data, Benjamin Franklin Plumbing has a charge-off rate of 0.0% across 46 loans, meaning 0.0% of franchise loans were charged off. Charge-off rates are one proxy for franchise risk, though they do not capture all closures. This data comes from FOIA-sourced SBA lending records.

As of their most recent FDD filing, Benjamin Franklin Plumbing has 334 total units in the United States, including 324 franchised units and 10 company-owned units. 64 new units were opened in the latest reporting year.
Is Benjamin Franklin Plumbing a good franchise to buy?
FranchiseVerdict rates Benjamin Franklin Plumbing as a A-grade franchise with a verdict score of 100 out of 100 (higher is better). The grade is a deterministic score built from six weighted dimensions — financial health, unit economics, unit growth, scale, legal, and transparency — then calibrated against SBA loan charge-off rates and FDD age. Transparency is one of the six, so a filing that discloses less scores lower on that dimension than one that discloses more. Our rating is based solely on publicly available FDD and government data; we recommend speaking with current franchisees before making any investment decision. This is not investment advice.
