Margaritaville Hotels & Resorts, LLC operates 18 outlets with a moderate growth trajectory, having opened 4 locations and closed 1 in the last year. ✓ The total investment range of $212,100 to $440,700 is relatively low for a hotel brand, though the absence of disclosed franchise and royalty fees raises questions about the revenue model. ⚠ The presence of litigation is a notable risk factor that warrants further investigation. ✓ The inclusion of Item 19 financial disclosure provides some transparency for prospective franchisees.

The Yard Milkshake Bar operates a small but rapidly expanding system of 18 outlets, with a strong growth trajectory evidenced by 8 openings and zero closures in the last year. ✓ The total investment range of $281,975 to $627,250 is moderate for a food concept, and the $30,000 franchise fee is competitive. ✓ The absence of litigation and bankruptcy filings, combined with the availability of Item 19 financial performance data, provides a clean operational history for prospective franchisees. ⚠ However, the 6.0% royalty is standard, and the small base of 18 units means the brand's long-term scalability and unit economics are still being proven.

Bagel Boss operates 18 outlets with a moderate franchise fee of $40,000 and a total investment range of $510,099 to $1,175,049. ✓ The brand shows positive growth, opening 5 new locations last year against 2 closures, and reports a strong average unit volume (AUV) of $1,987,228. ⚠ However, the presence of litigation is a notable red flag that warrants further investigation into potential operational or legal risks. Overall, the system demonstrates healthy expansion and solid unit economics, but the litigation issue tempers the outlook.

Illy Caffè operates a small network of 17 outlets with a high total investment range of $401,600 to over $2 million, positioning it as a premium opportunity. ✓ The brand shows stable growth with one outlet opened and zero closures in the last year, and no litigation or bankruptcy history. ⚠ A significant red flag is the absence of Item 19 financial disclosure, which prevents prospective franchisees from validating unit-level performance or profitability. This lack of transparency, combined with a $40,000 franchise fee and 6% royalty, makes the investment difficult to assess for risk-adjusted returns.

OHM® is an early-stage, high-growth concept that expanded rapidly last year by opening 13 new units with zero closures, signaling strong initial market demand. ✓ The investment range of $378,500 to $890,500 is significant for a brand of this size, particularly given the absence of an Item 19 financial performance representation. ⚠ Prospective franchisees must rely heavily on the brand's current momentum rather than validated unit economics when justifying the high capital entry cost.

Big Air Franchising, LLC operates a small but growing network of 17 outlets, with a high average unit volume (AUV) of $2,661,512 that suggests strong per-unit revenue potential. ✓ The franchise has demonstrated healthy growth, opening 5 new outlets in the last year with zero closures, indicating operational stability and demand. ⚠ However, the total investment range of $2.5M to $4.56M is substantial, and the $50,000 franchise fee plus 6% royalty represent a significant ongoing cost. ⚠ The presence of litigation is a notable red flag that warrants further investigation into the nature and resolution of these legal issues.

Fitness Premier operates a small, stagnant system of 17 outlets with zero net growth in the last year, as no new locations opened and none closed. The franchise fee is $49,500 with a 6% royalty, but the total investment range is extremely wide at $119,750 to $1,826,600, suggesting significant variability in build-out costs. ✓ The absence of litigation and bankruptcy filings indicates a clean legal history. ⚠ The lack of any recent expansion raises concerns about the brand's growth trajectory and market momentum.

Without this data, the franchise's growth trajectory remains unproven, and the 17 new openings last year could reflect initial expansion rather than sustainable demand.

Poki Bowl operates a modest 17-unit network with a relatively high franchise fee of $45,000 and a total investment ranging from $187,750 to $423,000. ✓ The brand shows strong growth momentum, having opened 7 new outlets against just 1 closure last year, and its Item 19 disclosure reveals a healthy average unit volume of $436,925. ⚠ However, the presence of litigation is a notable red flag that warrants further investigation into the nature and frequency of these legal issues.

The franchise fee is $75,000 with a 10% royalty, and the total investment ranges from $125,000 to $514,000, positioning it as a mid-tier opportunity. ⚠ A significant red flag is the absence of Item 19 financial disclosure, which prevents validation of unit-level profitability. ✓ Additionally, the presence of litigation history introduces further risk, though the lack of bankruptcy is a neutral factor.

BBRG, LLC operates a small, 17-unit franchise system with a moderate investment range of $447,500 to $776,500 and a $35,000 franchise fee. ⚠ The absence of Item 19 financial performance data prevents any assessment of unit-level profitability, a significant transparency concern. ✓ The network showed stability with one outlet opened and zero closures last year, though growth is minimal. ⚠ The presence of litigation is a notable red flag that warrants further investigation.

KCA Holdings, LLC operates a small network of 17 total outlets, indicating a limited scale and brand presence.

VaVia, LLC operates a small but rapidly growing network of 17 outlets, having added 5 net new locations last year with only 1 closure, indicating strong unit-level momentum. The franchise requires a substantial total investment of up to $563,571 and an 8% royalty, but the disclosed average unit volume of over $8.2 million is exceptionally high, suggesting significant revenue potential for qualifying operators. ✓ The high AUV and positive net growth are key strengths, though the $49,500 franchise fee and capital requirements create a high barrier to entry. ⚠ Prospective franchisees should carefully review the active litigation noted in the disclosure, as it represents a material risk to the brand's stability and reputation.

The total investment range is broad at $189,500 to $1,768,000, with a $30,000 franchise fee and a 6% royalty. ⚠ A significant red flag is the absence of Item 19 financial performance disclosure, leaving prospective franchisees without crucial earnings data. ⚠ Additionally, the presence of litigation further elevates risk, making this a highly speculative opportunity given its stagnant scale and lack of transparency.

Apna Franchise LLC operates a very small network of 17 total outlets with no growth or closures in the past year, indicating a stagnant or nascent system. The franchise fee is steep at $100,000, and the total investment range of $1.5M to $6.58M is exceptionally high for a brand with no Item 19 financial disclosure, creating significant uncertainty for prospective franchisees. ⚠ The absence of any financial performance representation is a major red flag, as investors cannot assess unit-level profitability or revenue potential. ✓ On the positive side, there is no litigation or bankruptcy history, but the high capital requirement and lack of transparency make this a high-risk opportunity.

FAMILY NEST™ is a very young, rapidly expanding franchise with 17 total outlets, having opened 14 in the last year against just 1 closure, signaling strong early momentum. The total investment range of $55,005 to $118,600 is relatively low, making it accessible, though the $34,500 franchise fee is a significant portion of that cost. ⚠ A major red flag is the absence of Item 19 financial performance data, meaning there is no audited disclosure on unit revenue or profitability for prospective buyers to evaluate. ✓ The franchise has no litigation or bankruptcy history, which provides a clean legal background, but the lack of financial substantiation makes the growth trajectory difficult to validate.

Mr. Duct Cleaner is a small but rapidly expanding franchise with 17 total outlets, having added 7 new locations in the past year with zero closures, indicating strong unit-level health and demand. ✓ The franchise requires a moderate total investment of $96,600 to $141,055, supported by a disclosed average unit volume (AUV) of $449,907, which suggests a favorable revenue-to-investment ratio. ⚠ However, the $59,500 franchise fee is relatively high for a system of this size, and the 6% royalty is standard but will compress margins. ✓ With no litigation or bankruptcy history and a clean growth trajectory, this is a low-risk opportunity for investors seeking a proven, capital-efficient service business.

River Pools Franchising, LLC operates a small but rapidly growing network of 17 outlets, having added 8 new locations last year against just 1 closure, indicating strong expansion momentum. ✓ The total investment range of $113,700 to $288,200 is relatively low for a franchise, and the absence of litigation or bankruptcy history suggests a clean operational record. ⚠ However, the lack of Item 19 financial disclosure is a significant red flag, as prospective franchisees cannot verify unit-level profitability or revenue expectations. ⚠ Additionally, the 12% royalty fee is notably high for a franchise with no disclosed financial performance, raising concerns about ongoing cost burdens relative to potential earnings.

Home Matters Caregiving is a small but rapidly expanding franchise with 17 total outlets, having added 8 new locations in the past year with zero closures, indicating strong unit-level stability and demand. ✓ The total investment range of $92,525 to $165,500 is relatively low for a caregiving concept, and the $52,000 franchise fee with a 6% royalty is competitive. ⚠ A significant red flag is the absence of an Item 19 financial disclosure, meaning prospective franchisees cannot verify any earnings claims or historical performance data.

Doodle Bugs! Children's Learning Academy operates a very small network of just 17 total outlets with zero net growth over the past year, indicating a stagnant or fully mature system. The franchise fee is $65,000 with a 6% royalty, but the total investment range is exceptionally wide at $546,375 to $9,242,500, suggesting significant variability in real estate or build-out costs that could pose a financial risk. ⚠ A major red flag is the absence of Item 19 financial performance data, leaving prospective franchisees without any validated earnings expectations. ✓ On the positive side, the franchise has no history of litigation or bankruptcy, which provides some baseline stability.

M14Hoops is a small but rapidly growing franchise with 16 total outlets, having added 7 new locations in the last year with zero closures, indicating strong unit-level demand and operational stability. ✓ The relatively low total investment range of $104,880 to $430,000 makes it accessible for many operators, though the 8% royalty is on the higher side for a service-based concept. ⚠ The $49,500 franchise fee is significant relative to the low end of the investment range, which could pressure early profitability.
