    Wild Birds Unlimited compiled the gross sales information in this financial performance representation from its franchisees’ monthly sales reports and annual financial statements submitted to the franchisor (the “P & L Statements”).
  • The stores in this financial performance representation range in age from 1 to over 30 years of operation.
  • The financial performance information provided for each 12-month period excludes stores that were not operational during the entire 12-month period.
  • This information is not audited, and the franchisor has not verified nor does it warrant the accuracy of the information or the method used by each franchisee in its computation.
  • The stores included in this financial performance representation represent a variety of geographic and demographic circumstances. These variations include: 1) the total population of the city in which the store is located ranges from over 700,000 to less than 1,000; 2) stores are located in a diverse variety of locations throughout the United States and Canada (the Canadian results have been adjusted to U.S. dollars); 3) a number of cities in which the stores are located are suburbs of larger metropolitan areas; and 4) some stores located in areas with small populations are in areas with a substantial amount of “tourist” traffic.
