Which franchises don't disclose earnings in Item 19?
Franchises that make no financial performance representation in Item 19 of their latest FDD — meaning the franchisor publishes no earnings claim at all. Legal and common, but it moves the burden of proof onto you.

A brand appears here when Item 19 of its latest FDD filing (no more than two years old) contains no financial performance representation, ordered by system size (franchised units at latest Item 20 fiscal year end, descending). Absence of an Item 19 is not evidence of poor unit economics — but it means the only earnings data you will get comes from talking to current and former franchisees.
Universe: every brand tracked here whose latest filing is a machine extraction from a public FDD (state regulator portals, chiefly Minnesota CARDS), filed 2024–2026. Filings more than two years old and sample/seed data never enter a ranking. Each row's “FDD” link is the official document the figure came from; each brand link leads to the full sourced profile. See the site methodology for extraction and confidence rules.
A broker is usually paid by the franchisor to place you. I'm paid only by you, never by a franchisor you're considering — and the job is pressure-testing the numbers, including talking you out of a bad deal.
