What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Cinnaholic's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees are required to submit an annual copy of their signed 1120 or 1120S tax form, including all supporting schedules, as filed with the Internal Revenue Service. This also includes any forms that replace those forms, along with all other federal, state, and local sales and use and income tax reports that the franchisee is required to file.
These documents must be delivered to Cinnaholic within 30 days after filing with the relevant tax authorities. This requirement ensures that Cinnaholic has access to the franchisee's financial information for compliance and performance monitoring.
If a franchisee fails to submit these reports or other required information by the specified deadline, Cinnaholic may charge a late submission fee of $100.00. All reports or information should be submitted to the attention of Cinnaholic's franchise department.
