Item 19
What Toro Taxes franchisees actually report earning
Median Total Gross Sales
$42,598
Toro Taxes' 2026 FDD, Item 19, for the 2025 Calendar Year. Basis: Operational Franchise Outlets.
Sample size: 192 outlets. The FDD also reports average total gross sales of $63,874. We lead with the median because an average is pulled upward by the strongest outlets; the median is the middle outlet.
What the franchisor excluded from this figure
- For the 2024 Calendar Year, the FDD does not include data for 40 Franchise Outlets that were not open and operational for the entire 2024 Calendar Year.
- For the 2025 Calendar Year, the FDD excludes 79 Franchise Outlets: 28 because they were not open and operational for the entire 2025 Calendar Year since they first opened and commenced operations for the first time, and 33 because they ceased operations during the 2025 Calendar Year.
This is a disclosure of what some existing outlets reported, not a projection of what a new Toro Taxes outlet would earn. Your results will differ.

Item 20
How many Toro Taxes outlets there are, and how many closed
Toro Taxes ended 2025 with 192 franchised outlets and 2 company-owned outlets. In that year 20 franchised outlets opened and 35 left the system.
Three years at a glance
From 2023 through 2025, Toro Taxes opened 78 franchised outlets and 76 outlets left the system. That is a net gain of 9, from 183 to 192 franchised outlets. Of the outlets that left, 69 were terminated and 7 were not renewed. Those openings and departures do not add up to that change, because the FDD's own Item 20 rows for 2024 and 2025 do not add up either. We publish the franchisor's figures exactly as printed; see the note under the table below.
On average, about 13% of franchised outlets left the system each year, roughly 1 in 7.
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.
