    Year-end counts reported in Item 20. The scale starts at zero, so the line looks nearly flat; the labels between the dots show each year's change. Openings and closures for 2025 haven't been pulled from the Item 20 tables yet, so no turnover or churn is shown.

    • Which initial fee option would apply to my situation, and what conditions or discounts affect it?

      Our summary: Liquid capital requirement: $0 – $20,000

      “Under our financing program, if you ask us, we will consider financing up to $20,000 of the Initial Franchise Fee.”

      Note: Page 23: "financing up to $20,000 of the initial franchise fee" describes financing, not required liquid capital.
