Item 19

What @properties franchisees actually report earning

This brand's FDD publishes no Item 19.

We do not make any representations about a franchisee’s future financial performance or the past financial performance of company-owned or franchised outlets. We also do not authorize our employees or representatives to make any such representations either orally or in writing. If you are purchasing an existing outlet, however, we may provide you with actual records of that outlet.

Item 20

How many @properties outlets there are, and how many closed

@properties ended 2025 with 5 franchised outlets and 36 company-owned outlets. In that year 2 franchised outlets opened and none left the system.

Three years at a glance

From 2023 through 2025, @properties opened 2 franchised outlets and 2 outlets left the system. The franchised system ended the period the same size it started. Of the outlets that left, 2 were terminated.

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.
