What drove the 63/100 rating

Risk Score Breakdown

  1. 01MEDUnit count declined 16.1% YoY (53 units) — indicates systemic franchisee struggle or franchisor inability to recruit/retain
  2. 02HIGHGoing Concern status is FALSE — suggests franchisor financial instability or material doubt about viability
  3. 03MEDNet Income not disclosed in Item 19 — impossible to validate true profitability; average revenue of $403k may mask negative margins
  4. 04MINORHigh initial investment ($316k–$465k) with declining unit base creates elevated franchisee failure risk
  5. 05MINOR6% royalty on gross sales (not net) compounds pressure when profitability data is hidden
  6. 06HIGHNo litigation disclosed but Going Concern flag suggests undisclosed operational/financial crisis
