| Outlets at end | 1 | 41 | 84 |
| Net change | 0 | +40 | +43 |
0 terminations + 0 non-renewals + 0 ceased (other) = 0 exits ÷ 39 at start = 0.0%
These are the three FTC Item 20 statuses in which a franchisee involuntarily or terminally leaves the system. Transfers (0) are resales, not exits; reacquisitions by the franchisor (0) are tracked separately. There is no official “failure rate” — this annualized exit rate is the disclosed, measurable floor.
