What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Brain Balance's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Item 23 provides a table outlining the actuals and budget figures for the month ending February and the YTD February. The table compares figures from Feb-25, Feb-24, and Feb-25, offering a year-over-year comparison against the budget. It also details the variance in both dollar amounts and percentages. However, the document does not specify which row in the table represents the actuals for the entire Brain Balance franchise system.
For a prospective franchisee, this information is crucial for understanding the financial performance of existing Brain Balance centers. By examining the actuals versus budget and year-over-year variances, potential franchisees can gauge the financial health and growth trajectory of the franchise. This data can inform their financial projections and business plans.
It is important to note that the table includes multiple rows with different financial data, but without further context, it is impossible to determine which row represents the overall YTD February actuals for Brain Balance. A prospective franchisee should ask Brain Balance for clarification on which specific line in the table reflects the system-wide performance to gain a clear understanding of the franchise's financial results.
