Financial Performance (Item 19)
IMPORTANT: This FDD covers a Regional Franchise Developer (master franchise / area developer) opportunity, NOT a unit (single-territory cleaning business) franchise. Item 19's tables report financial data for Regional Franchise Developers themselves (i.e., the master franchisee's own business, which resells/supports Unit Franchisees), not for individual JAN-PRO cleaning unit franchisees. No unit-level revenue or profit figures are disclosed anywhere in Item 19, so avg_unit_revenue_usd/median_unit_revenue_usd/avg_unit_profit_usd are left null rather than mislabeling RFD-level aggregate data as unit-level. What IS disclosed: Table A - 'Gross Contract Revenue' (total revenue generated by all Unit Franchisees operating under a Regional Franchise Developer) for 115 RFDs (94 US, 21 Canada), FY ended 9/30/2025, broken into thirds: Top Third n=38 median $10,292,700 avg $10,831,084; Middle Third n=39 median $5,193,488 avg $5,401,823; Bottom Third n=38 median $2,031,729 avg $2,054,666; Total n=115 median $6,089,822, 49 (43%) at/above average. Table B breaks Gross Contract Revenue by vintage (years in system). Table C - 'Gross Revenue' (the RFD's own recurring fee/royalty revenue collected from Unit Franchisees) for 48 of 94 US RFDs reporting, CY2024: Total median $2,302,238, thirds given separately. Tables D/E give Occupancy and SG&A costs as % of Gross Revenue. Tables F-L repeat Gross Contract Revenue / Gross Revenue / expense breakdowns restricted to RFDs operating in Tier 3/4 (lower business-density) markets, including 'Gross Revenue Less Certain Operating Expenses' tables (J/K/L) which the FDD explicitly states are NOT a true net profit figure since they exclude owner/staff compensation and other costs. All figures are Regional-Franchise-Developer-level, not per-unit-franchisee.
