- The preceding data has been extracted from royalty reports and income statements submitted to Fresh Coat by its franchisees. The income statements submitted to Fresh Coat were prepared by the franchisee.
- For purposes of this Item 19, “Gross Revenue” means the total of all income arising from the operation of the franchised business, whether cash or credit. It is recognized on an accrual basis and regardless of collection, which means that a franchisee’s Gross Revenue for any period represents how much a franchisee billed its clients during the period, not how much the franchisee received.
- Gross Revenue does not include the amount of refunds and discounts made to clients, or the amount of sales or excise taxes that are separately stated and that the franchisee is required to and does collect from clients and pays to the appropriate taxing authority.
- “Gross Profit” means Gross Revenue minus the cost of direct labor and paint.
- Neither the Gross Revenue figures nor the Gross Profit figures reflect the costs of sales, other operating expenses, or other costs or expenses that must be deducted from Gross Revenue to obtain your net income or profit.
- You should conduct an independent investigation of the costs and expenses you will incur in operating a Fresh Coat franchise. Franchisees and former franchisees listed in the disclosure document may be one source of this information.
- Some outlets have sold this amount. Your individual results may differ. There is no assurance that you’ll sell as much.
