What drove the 66/100 rating

Risk Score Breakdown

  1. 01MINORExtreme royalty rate of 35% leaves minimal margin for profitability given $154k avg revenue
  2. 02MEDNet income not disclosed in FDD — inability to verify franchisee profitability is a major red flag
  3. 03HIGHGoing Concern status = franchisor may lack financial stability to support franchisees
  4. 04MINOROnly 11 units with 233% YoY growth suggests very recent launch (likely under 2 years old) with unproven model
  5. 05MINORUnprotected territory creates direct competition risk and customer poaching by other franchisees
  6. 06HIGHHigh initial investment ($84k-$162k) paired with no income disclosure and going concern status
  7. 07MED5-year term with no territory protection and undisclosed profitability is extremely risky
