The table provided in Item 20 of the FDD outlines the number of units opened, terminated, and the total number of units at the end of the year for each state.

A consistent increase in the number of units, as seen in California from 2022 to 2023, may indicate a healthy market and brand presence. However, franchisees should also consider factors such as local demographics, competition, and the franchisor's support in the region to make an informed decision.
