Risk & Legal
PickUp USA Fitness presents caution-level risk due to complete financial opacity, minimal system growth, undisclosed profitability metrics, and unclear franchisor financial health—making ROI validation impossible.
Score breakdown · what drove the 54 / 100 rating
- 01MINORNo Item 19 financial disclosure (average unit volumes and profitability completely unknown)
- 02MINORExtremely slow unit growth of 7.1% YoY with only 16 total units indicates weak franchisee recruitment and system maturity issues
- 03MEDHigh investment range ($351K–$788K) combined with undisclosed revenue makes ROI impossible to validate
- 04HIGHGoing Concern status is FALSE, which is ambiguous and requires clarification on franchisor financial stability
- 05MINOR6% royalty on gross revenues (not net) means franchisees pay even during unprofitable months
- 06HIGHNo disclosed litigation but small unit count limits visibility into potential dispute patterns
