What drove the 65/100 rating

Risk Score Breakdown

  1. 01MINOROnly 1 unit in system with unknown growth trajectory — cannot validate scalability or franchisee success
  2. 02MINORNo average revenue or net income disclosure (no Item 19) — impossible to assess earning potential or ROI on $31k-$49k investment
  3. 03MINORRoyalty structure ($300/month minimum) creates cash flow risk for early-stage operators, especially in months 1-3
  4. 04MEDHigh royalty rate (8.6%) combined with undisclosed profitability makes unit economics opaque
  5. 05MINORSingle unit operator suggests brand is either pre-revenue, unproven, or intentionally limiting franchising — raises confidence questions
  6. 06MINOR5-year term is short for recouping franchise fee and reaching profitability in youth sports education
