What drove the 65/100 rating
Risk Score Breakdown
- 01MINOROnly 4 units in system with unknown growth trajectory indicates minimal scale and validation
- 02MEDNo average net income disclosed despite $240K average revenue — suggests profitability concerns or franchisor opacity
- 03HIGHGoing Concern = False is critical red flag suggesting franchisor financial instability or restructuring
- 04MINOR6% royalty on $240K average revenue yields only $14,400 annually — questions franchisor's sustainable revenue model
- 05MINORHigh initial investment range ($120.5K–$247K) relative to 4-unit system suggests unproven unit economics
- 06HIGHNo litigation disclosure is positive but unreliable indicator given going concern status and small unit count
