What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Batteries Plus Bulbs's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, when considering corporate and franchised stores together, there are 218 stores in the middle third. This data is based on the net revenue performance of 653 stores, which includes both corporate-owned and franchised locations.
For a prospective franchisee, this information provides a benchmark for understanding the distribution of revenue performance across the Batteries Plus Bulbs system. Being in the middle third means that a store's revenue performance is neither in the top-performing group nor the bottom, offering a view of what a typical store might achieve.
It's important to note that this is an average across all stores, and individual store performance can vary widely. Factors such as location, management, local market conditions, and competition can all influence a store's revenue. The FDD also provides additional financial performance representations, including data on average net revenue, median net revenue, and EBITDA, which can offer further insights into potential financial outcomes.
