The headline figure is Gross Revenue of Qualified Studios for Calendar 2024 (Jan 1 - Dec 31, 2024), for 599 of 617 units, leaving out did not operate for the entire Measurement Period, Non-Traditional Sites. The mean is 7% above the median, so a minority of high-volume units pulls the average up. It shows no costs, so it says nothing about what an owner keeps.

PartialCovers 599 of 617 units (97%) · median and mean · no expenses

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.
