Section IV – News Updates on the Home Helpers Franchise
Section V – Financial Performance Representations (Average Revenues and/or Profits) for the Home Helpers Franchise (Item 19, 2024 FDD)
- For each Home Helpers franchisee, owning more than one franchise gives them a larger protected territory in which they may operate, but does not require additional office locations. Typically, a Home Helpers franchisee operates from a single office location, regardless of the number of franchises (i.e., territories) the franchisee owns.
- For the most part, the tables in this Item 19 present historical Gross Revenues by “location,” not by franchise. Franchisees who own more than one franchise report their Gross Revenues as a single “location” for all the franchises they own – they do not report their data by individual franchise.
- Home Helpers has included the data in the tables below as reported by its franchisees – by location – although doing so results in higher revenue figures per franchise than it would if it was presented by franchise.
- The data also disregards renewals, and transfers of a location from one owner to another.
- For purposes of this Item 19, the “effective date” of each location is the date the original Franchise Agreement for that location became effective, regardless of the number of times it was transferred or renewed.
- For example, suppose Franchisee B owns 3 Home Helpers Home Care franchises, all of which he purchased at the same time from Franchisee A in 2015. The Franchise Agreement for Franchise 1 was signed by Franchisee A in 2007 and renewed in 2017 after Franchisee B purchased it. The Franchise Agreement for Franchise 2 was signed by Franchisee A in 2010. The Franchise Agreement for Franchise 3 was signed by Franchisee B in 2017.
- In the tables in this Item 19, the Gross Revenues from Franchises 1, 2, and 3 would be aggregated together as a single location, and the “effective date” of the location would be 2007.
- All the tables in this Item 19 present historical Gross Revenues for franchised Home Helpers Home Care locations for the 12-month periods ending on December 31, 2023, December 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021.
- For each of those periods, only data from locations with an effective date at least one year before the beginning of the period and which reported Gross Revenues during the period were included in the table.
- The information has been extracted from revenue reports submitted to Home Helpers by its franchisees, and reported on an accrual basis. Home Helpers has not audited or independently verified the information.
