Club Pilates FDD (Franchise Disclosure Document) — 2025
The FDD is the 23-item legal disclosure every U.S. franchisor must hand you at least 14 days before you sign or pay anything (FTC Franchise Rule, 16 CFR 436). Club Pilates's most recent FDD tracked here is the 2025 FDD, filed with the Minnesota Department of Commerce (public CARDS portal). Registration-state filings are public records, so you can read it free, with no sign-up.
PUBLIC RECORD · FILED 2025 · SOURCE STATE MN
| ITEM 5 | Initial franchise fee | $65,000 |
| ITEM 6 | Ongoing royalty | 8.0% of gross sales |
| ITEM 7 | Total initial investment | $385K–$839K |
| ITEM 19 | Earnings disclosure (FPR) | Yes — financial performance representation made |
| ITEM 20 | Outlets (fiscal 2024) | 1,029 franchised at year end · 5 exits (exit rate 0.6%, fiscal 2024) |
The headline figure is Gross Revenue (Average) for Measurement Period Jan 1 - Dec 31, 2024, for 849 of 1,029 units, leaving out did not operate for the entire Measurement Period, non-traditional sites, Expanded Studios (>12 reformers, shown separately). It shows no costs, so it says nothing about what an owner keeps.
Graded on three things the filing states: coverage (2 points if the figure covers at least 75% of the units it is compared with, 1 point for 50–75%), centre (2 points if it prints both a median and a mean, 1 for one of them), and costs (2 points for costs through a profit line or full cost detail, 1 for some cost items). 5–6 points = More complete, 3–4 = Partial, 0–2 = Limited. The grade describes the disclosure, not the business.
