Item 19
What Aira Fitness's FDD reports in Item 19
Median Number of Leads Generated
204 leads in the first 30 days
This is a count of leads in the first 30 days, not money. Aira Fitness' 2026 FDD, Item 19, for the first 30 days of Lead Generation for franchisees open for business as of March 1, 2026. Basis: 10 franchised Aira Fitness Businesses that are similar to the Aira Fitness Business offered in this Disclosure Document.
Sample size: 10 franchised Aira Fitness Businesses. The FDD also reports average (mean) of 308 leads in the first 30 days. We lead with the median because an average is pulled upward by the strongest franchised Aira Fitness Businesses; the median is the middle franchised Aira Fitness Business.
What the franchisor excluded from this figure
- 5 of 15 franchised Aira Fitness Businesses opened for business as of March 1, 2026 have been excluded from the data.
- 4 franchised Aira Fitness Businesses were excluded from the data because they were originally affiliate-owned locations sold to franchisees.
- 1 franchised Aira Fitness Business was excluded from the data in both Chart #1 and Chart #2 because the data was corrupted and reliable data could not be recovered.
- The Magna, Utah franchise was excluded from the data for “Dollar Amount Spent on Lead Generation During 30-Day Period” and “Cost Per Lead” in both Chart #1 and Chart #2.
This is a disclosure of what some existing franchised Aira Fitness Businesses reported, not a projection of what a new franchised Aira Fitness Business would earn. Your results will differ.

Item 20
How many Aira Fitness outlets there are, and how many closed
Aira Fitness ended 2025 with 14 franchised outlets and 6 company-owned outlets. In that year 4 franchised outlets opened and none left the system.
Three years at a glance
From 2023 through 2025, Aira Fitness opened 15 franchised outlets and 1 outlet left the system. That is a net gain of 14, from 0 to 14 franchised outlets. Of the outlets that left, 1 was bought back by the franchisor.
With fewer than 10 outlets, one closure moves the numbers a lot, so we do not calculate a yearly rate.
Our arithmetic from the FDD's Item 20 table below. "Left the system" counts every outlet the franchisor reports as terminated, not renewed, bought back, or closed for other reasons.
