What drove the 32/100 rating
Risk Score Breakdown
- 01MEDNet income not disclosed in FDD Item 19 — cannot validate actual profitability claims against $903K average revenue
- 02MINORHigh investment range ($356K-$757K) with 6% royalty creates breakeven sensitivity if revenue underperforms
- 03MEDModest unit growth (15.7% YoY) with only 130 units suggests system is still in early scaling phase with limited track record
- 04HIGHNo litigation disclosed, but young/small systems often lack sufficient history to assess franchise relationship stability
