Specifically, the table shows that in Missouri, there were 6 company-owned outlets at the start of 2023, which decreased to 4 by the end of 2023. This number remained constant through 2024, with 4 company-owned outlets at both the start and end of the year.

The stability in the number of company-owned outlets in Missouri during 2024 could suggest a stable market or a strategic decision not to expand company-owned operations further in that state. It is important to note that all company-owned schools are owned by some or all of Creative World School's shareholders, officers, and directors, and they do not operate any of the schools.
