- Every figure is checkable — each carries a citation to its filing, FDD Item, and PDF page, and the filings it cites are in the package.
- Restatements are shown, not overwritten — where a later filing revises an earlier year's figures, both numbers appear with a note.
- Calculated figures are labeled — anything the report calculates rather than quotes is marked as calculated, with its formula published in the report.
- Gaps are explicit — a closing “What this report does not include” section separates what the franchisor didn't disclose from what this report doesn't collect, so an absence is never ambiguous.

Notes:
Analysis packages: The multi-year FDD Analysis Report compares a brand's consecutive annual FDD filings — outlet counts and closures, fees, initial investment, financial performance representations, franchisor financial statements, leadership, and litigation — with year-over-year changes identified and every figure cited to its source page. Each package includes the complete source FDD documents the report cites.
Every figure is machine-read from source FDDs. Machine reading can misread; any figure may be incorrect. Verify any figure you intend to rely on against the cited page in the original FDD. This report is not legal, financial or investment advice, is not a recommendation to enter into, decline, finance or exit any franchise relationship, and is not a substitute for reading the FDDs or consulting qualified advisors.
Note: Purchased documents are available for immediate download. The $99 FDD Document Processing Fee covers acquisition, storage, organization, and digital delivery of an individually purchased FDD. Analysis packages are priced for the report and include the source FDDs it cites at no additional charge; package tiers differ by analysis window — a 5-year report analyzes five filings, a 2-year report two.
