FDD · Item 7

Secured revenue differs from cash received.

Item 19 uses annual secured revenue, which includes revenue received or expected under customer contracts signed during the reporting year. It can capture payments expected over multiple years. It is not the cash collected in a single year or the owner’s profit.

FDD · Item 19

Sales are not take-home income.

Reported revenue comes before the costs of running the business and is not owner profit. Historical results do not predict what a new owner will achieve. Use the current FDD to explore the expenses and operating assumptions relevant to your plans.
