| Status (FTC) | 2019 | 2020 | 2021 | 2022 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Outlets at start | 24 | 23 | 23 | 18 |
| Opened | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Transfers | 2 | 1 | 0 | 0 |
| Terminations | 0 | 2 | 1 | 1 |
| Non-renewals | 1 | 2 | 0 | 0 |
| Reacquired by franchisor | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Ceased — other reasons | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Outlets at end | 23 | 19 | 19 | 17 |
| Net change | -1 | -4 | -4 | -1 |
1 terminations + 0 non-renewals + 0 ceased (other) = 1 exits ÷ 18 at start = 5.6%
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.
