The FDD provides a system-wide studio summary that tracks the number of franchised and affiliate-owned studios from 2022 to 2024. This summary shows the progression of the Beem Light Sauna franchise system over those years.
Specifically, for franchised studios, the number increased from 1 at the start of 2023 to 3 by the end of the year, representing a net increase of 2 studios. This indicates a period of growth for the franchise system.
It's important to note that the franchisor acquired the franchise system in January 2025, with the predecessor being the franchisor for the fiscal years 2022, 2023, and 2024. During that time, the predecessor's affiliates owned and operated studios, which are categorized as "Affiliate-Owned Studios" in the FDD. After the acquisition, these affiliate-owned studios became franchised studios.
