How the exit count is computedfiscal 2023

0 terminations + 0 non-renewals + 2 ceased (other) = 2 exits ÷ 89 at start = 2.2%

These are the three FTC Item 20 statuses in which a franchisee involuntarily or terminally leaves the system. Transfers (9) are resales, not exits; reacquisitions by the franchisor (3) are tracked separately. There is no official “failure rate” — this annualized exit rate is the disclosed, measurable floor.
