- No Item 19 financial performance data disclosed — the franchisor chose not to publish revenue figures.

Risk & Legal
WANPO presents a CAUTION-to-HIGH RISK profile due to recent regulatory violations, complete financial opacity (no Item 19), going concern issues, and rapid growth with minimal operational history.
Score breakdown · what drove the 62 / 100 rating
- 01MINORRecent regulatory violations in two states (CA and NY) for illegal franchise sales without registration—demonstrates compliance failures and regulatory risk exposure
- 02MEDNo Item 19 financial disclosures (Avg Revenue and Net Income not disclosed)—impossible to validate ROI claims or unit profitability; high opacity risk
- 03HIGHGoing Concern status is FALSE—potential financial instability of franchisor raises questions about long-term support and system viability
- 04MINORRapid unit growth of 120% YoY with only 11 total units—suggests aggressive scaling with minimal track record; vulnerable to market correction
- 05MINORRelatively high initial investment ($109.6K–$196.3K) paired with no financial transparency—unfavorable risk-to-reward ratio
- 06MINOR3% royalty on gross (not net) sales—franchisees pay royalties even during unprofitable periods, increasing financial stress
