What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Exit's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the company categorizes the credit risk profile of trade receivables based on credit quality indicators. Exit uses this categorization to determine appropriate allowances for expected credit losses.
Exit estimates expected credit losses on trade receivables based on historical credit loss experience, current economic conditions, and reasonable forecasts that affect the collectability of the trade receivables. The determination of expected credit losses involves significant judgments and estimates, and changes in economic conditions or customer payment behavior may impact the allowance for credit losses.

Franchisees should be aware that these estimates are subject to change and can be influenced by various economic factors.
