  • “Gross Revenue” means the aggregate amount of all sales of goods and services, whether for cash, by check, credit card or otherwise, made or provided at or in connection with the Franchised Business. “Gross Revenue” does not include any federal, state, municipal or other sales, value added or retailer’s excise taxes that you pay or accrue. For the purposes of the Franchise Agreement, a sale occurs at the time the goods are provided or installed or the services are performed. Gross Revenue will not be adjusted for uncollected accounts.
  • “Product Cost” reflects the costs as a percentage of revenue of the total costs incurred to acquire the required material inventory.
  • “Labor” reflects the costs as a percentage of revenue of the amount spent on installation crew labor, including employees and independent contractors. Labor does not include a salary for a general manager or any sales or administrative staff. Hello Garage assumes that your Designated Owner will act as the Operating Manager.
  • “Royalty Fee” reflects the costs as a percentage of revenue of the royalty fee that will be due under the Franchise Agreement.
  • “Brand Fund” reflects the costs as a percentage of revenue of the brand fund fee that will be due under the Franchise Agreement.
  • “Advertising” reflects the costs as a percentage of revenue of the local advertising requirements you are required to spend under the Franchise Agreement.
  • “Fuel” reflects the costs as a percentage of revenue of the fuel for your vehicle, sales vehicle, and other equipment in the operation of your Franchised Business.
  • “Maintenance” reflects the costs as a percentage of revenue of maintaining and repairing the equipment and vehicle.
  • “Technology” reflects the costs as a percentage of revenue of the technology you are expected to purchase in the development and operation of your Franchised Business.
  • “Merchant Services and Insurance” reflects the costs as a percentage of revenue of credit card processing fees and insurance.
  • “Small Tools and Equipment” reflects the costs as a percentage of revenue of tools and equipment needed for the Dream Team installers.
  • “Sales Compensation” reflects employees’ base salary and commission expenses as a percentage of revenue for the portion of that Gross Revenue that was not sold by the franchise owner or a General Manager.
  • The data presented in Item 19 is based on the information reported to Hello Garage by its affiliates or franchisees. You should conduct an independent investigation of the costs and expenses you will incur in managing your own Hello Garage Franchised Business.
  • There are no material financial and operational characteristics of the company-owned territories that are reasonably anticipated to differ materially from future operational franchise outlets.
