Bottom line

  • Total investment $71K – $262K including a $40K franchise fee, 7.5% ongoing royalty.
  • No Item 19 financial performance data disclosed — the franchisor chose not to publish revenue figures.
  • Rated CAUTION with a risk score of 72/100.
  • No Item 19 financial performance representation. Without franchisor-disclosed revenue data, you'll need to gather unit economics directly from existing franchisees.

Overview

About

Nowlogy appears to be a healthcare/clinical services franchise model where franchisees operate as qualified clinicians or manage clinician networks. Day-to-day operations likely involve clinical service delivery, patient/client management, and revenue collection with royalty payments to franchisor based on monthly collected revenue per qualified clinician.

Risk & Legal

72
Risk · 0-100
CAUTION72 / 100

Micro-franchise system with going concern issues, no performance data, minimal unit base, and aggressive fee structure presents extreme execution and franchisor solvency risk.

Score breakdown · what drove the 72 / 100 rating

  1. 01MINOROnly 4 units in system with unknown/likely stagnant growth suggests failed franchise model
  2. 02MINORNo average revenue or net income disclosure (Item 19) prevents realistic ROI assessment
  3. 03HIGHGoing concern status indicates franchisor financial instability and viability risk
  4. 04MINORHigh initial investment ($71.2K-$262.1K) combined with $4K minimum monthly royalty creates breakeven pressure
  5. 05MINOR7.5% royalty on 'collected revenue' is vague accounting; unclear what qualifies and payment risk exposure
  6. 06MINOR10-year term is lengthy commitment with unproven business model and only 4 references
