What drove the 65/100 rating

Risk Score Breakdown

  1. 01MEDOnly 2 existing franchisee units with unknown growth trajectory indicates extremely limited operating history and system validation
  2. 02MINORWide investment range ($787K-$4.5M) suggests unclear unit economics or highly variable buildout costs with poor cost controls
  3. 03MINORItem 19 (Financial Performance Representations) not provided—cannot validate claimed $1.55M average revenue or $250K net income figures independently
  4. 04HIGHGoing Concern status is true, meaning franchisor has substantial doubt about its ability to continue operating
  5. 05MINORFranchise fee ($95K) appears disproportionately low relative to investment range, suggesting potential undercapitalization or aggressive unit economics
