ITEM 20 OUTLETS AND FRANCHISEE INFORMATION
Until the Internal Reorganization in August 2022 (described in Item 1), our predecessor, BK Corporation, operated the BURGER KING Restaurants listed as "Company-Owned" and all of the franchised outlets disclosed in the tables below were operated under franchise agreements with BK Corporation. We became the owner of the BURGER KING Restaurants listed as "Company-Owned" and assumed the franchise agreements as part of the Internal Reorganization.

What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Burger King's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Item 20 includes a table summarizing system-wide outlet information for the years ending December 31, 2022, December 31, 2023, and December 31, 2024. However, the provided excerpts do not include the actual table data specifying the number of restaurants reacquired by Burger King during 2024.
Without the specific figures from the table, it is impossible to determine the exact number of Burger King restaurants that were reacquired by the company during that year. The table would typically list changes in the number of company-owned and franchised outlets, including acquisitions, closures, and new openings.
A prospective franchisee should carefully review the complete Item 20 exhibit in the 2025 FDD to find the Systemwide Outlet Summary table. They should also consider asking Burger King's franchise representatives directly for clarification on the number of reacquired restaurants and the reasons behind those re acquisitions to fully understand the dynamics of the franchise system.
