Bottom line
- Total investment $244K – $481K including a $25K franchise fee, 4.3% ongoing royalty.

- Rated CAUTION with a risk score of 72/100. SBA loan default rate of 0.0% across 9 loans (below the industry average).
- No Item 19 financial performance representation. Without franchisor-disclosed revenue data, you'll need to gather unit economics directly from existing franchisees.

Risk & Legal
A contracting pizza franchise with hidden financials, questionable franchisor stability, and a shrinking unit base raises serious viability and return concerns.
Score breakdown · what drove the 72 / 100 rating
- 01MEDSystem contracting sharply: 8 units with 11.1% YoY decline signals franchisee exits and weak demand
- 02MINORNo financial disclosure (Item 19): Revenue and net income hidden—impossible to validate ROI claims or unit economics
- 03HIGHGoing concern status is FALSE: Franchisor may face operational or financial instability
- 04MINORMinimal franchise fee ($25k) combined with high investment cap ($480k+) suggests thin margins and high unit costs
- 05MINORDeclining unit count in pizza category indicates intense competition; unable to retain or attract franchisees
