What one unit earns on your invested capital
Model A · Single-Unit Return
Computes unlevered return on invested capital (ROIC) for a single franchise unit, read against the 30–60% reference band · Yale SOM, Post-MBA Path Exhibit 2 (2023). Below that band a passive index fund likely outperforms; above it the franchisor has pricing power you're subsidizing.
Note: Item 19 revenue is what the franchisor discloses, and it is the top line only — gross sales are not profit. No FDD discloses the operating costs that turn one into the other, so those fields start empty and nothing is modelled until you supply them from your own lease quote, labor market and build-out budget.

What 25 units return when you use SBA financing
Model B · Return on Equity: Debt-Financed Acquisition
Models a 25-unit portfolio acquisition financed with an SBA 7(a) loan. Shows equity IRR (your return on cash invested), DSCR (how safely the cash flow covers debt service), and the capital stack (SBA + seller + equity breakdown).
This is the “search fund” or “entrepreneurship through acquisition” scenario: you buy an existing multi-unit operator, use leverage to amplify returns, and either operate or hire management. The 25-unit size is the typical minimum for an SBA-backed franchise portfolio acquisition to pencil as a full-time income.
What “return on equity” means here: if you put in $500K of your own cash and the business generates enough EBITDA to pay down debt and grow, your equity IRR is the annual return on that $500K, including the value created when you eventually sell. Target IRR for a search fund is typically 25–35%.

A 25-unit return is built on a per-unit EBITDA. Fill in the operating costs in Model A above and this model runs on that figure, or take the whole scenario to the full ROI workbench, where the portfolio and LBO models accept your own per-unit economics directly.

Disclosure

Operator retention
System expanding at 25.1% CAGR over 3 years across 221 units — operators are staying and new ones are joining.

Frequently asked questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does it cost to open a Restore Hyper Wellness franchise?
The total investment to open a Restore Hyper Wellness franchise ranges from $777K – $1.3M, with an initial franchise fee of $45K. This includes real estate, equipment, inventory, and working capital as disclosed in their Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD).
What do Restore Hyper Wellness franchise owners earn?
According to Item 19 of the Restore Hyper Wellness FDD, the average gross sales per unit is $912K. The median is $851K. Note: this is gross revenue, not profit. Actual owner earnings vary based on location, operating costs, and management.
Who owns Restore Hyper Wellness?
Restore Hyper Wellness is franchised by Restore Franchising, LLC. Its parent company is Austin Cryo Ventures, LLC (ACV). Source: FDD Item 1, 2025 filing.
What is Item 19 in the Restore Hyper Wellness FDD?
The FDD section where a franchisor may disclose financial performance of its outlets. Disclosure is optional and formats vary; figures are typically gross sales, which is revenue before expenses, not profit. FranchiseVerdict extracts these figures directly from the Restore Hyper Wellness FDD and qualifies whose outlets they describe.
What is Restore Hyper Wellness's franchise failure rate?
SBA 7(a) loan charge-off data is not available for Restore Hyper Wellness (fewer than 10 loans on file). Charge-off rates are one way to gauge franchise risk, but not all franchise loans go through the SBA program. We recommend reviewing turnover and closure data in the FDD and speaking with current franchisees.
How many Restore Hyper Wellness franchise locations are there?
As of their most recent FDD filing, Restore Hyper Wellness has 221 total units in the United States, including 209 franchised units and 12 company-owned units. 24 new units were opened in the latest reporting year.
Is Restore Hyper Wellness a good franchise to buy?
FranchiseVerdict rates Restore Hyper Wellness as a B-grade franchise with a verdict score of 63 out of 100 (higher is better). The grade is a deterministic score built from six weighted dimensions — financial health, unit economics, unit growth, scale, legal, and transparency — then calibrated against SBA loan charge-off rates and FDD age. Transparency is one of the six, so a filing that discloses less scores lower on that dimension than one that discloses more. Our rating is based solely on publicly available FDD and government data; we recommend speaking with current franchisees before making any investment decision. This is not investment advice.
