Risk & Legal
Enviro-Master presents moderate-to-elevated risk due to missing financial transparency (no Item 19), unresolved litigation patterns, aggressive growth trajectory, and gross revenue royalty structure without disclosed net income benchmarks.
Score breakdown · what drove the 39 / 100 rating
- 01MEDNo Item 19 (Average Unit Volume) disclosed - unable to verify $1.06M average revenue claim or typical profitability
- 02HIGHLitigation history includes both rescission claim and trademark/contract disputes with former franchisees, suggesting operational or relationship issues
- 03MINOR36.2% YoY unit growth is aggressive and may indicate unsustainable expansion or inclusion of underperforming units
- 04MEDHigh franchise fee ($60K) combined with $120-251K total investment without disclosed net income creates ROI uncertainty
- 05MINOR6% royalty on gross revenues (not net) means franchisor takes percentage regardless of franchisee profitability
