Risk & Legal
Right at Home presents moderate-to-caution risk due to undisclosed net income, sluggish unit growth, and high franchise fees relative to profit transparency.
Score breakdown · what drove the 41 / 100 rating
- 01MEDNet income not disclosed in FDD Item 19 — impossible to verify profit claims or ROI expectations
- 02MINORMinimal system growth of only 2.4% YoY with 531 units suggests market saturation or franchisee struggles
- 03MINORHigh initial investment ($88.7K–$160.7K) paired with opaque profitability creates asymmetric risk
- 04MINORRoyalty structure (5% of Net Billings or minimum quarterly) lacks transparency on actual minimum amount
- 05MINORAverage revenue of $1.56M is good, but without net income disclosure, profitability per unit is unknown
