What a unit sells
Item 19 is optional and is the franchisor's own representation. It is shown here as filed, with the franchisor's measure, sample and period, and nothing is estimated where it is missing.
| Measure | Gross Revenue, 2025 measurement period, Qualified Studios | |
|---|---|---|
| Sample | 1,005 units: the 1,005 Qualified Studios as defined by the franchisor for the 2025 period, with quartiles; 19 Expanded Studios reported separately (median $1,336,024) | |
| Period | 2025 measurement period | |
| High / low | $2,301,954 / $146,258 | |
Revenue to investment
Formula: Item 19 Qualified Studios median / Item 7 single-studio total (midpoint, low, high). A ratio of 1.00 means one year of median unit revenue equals the investment; it says nothing about profit.

Closures are the franchisor's Item 20 counts of units terminated, not renewed, or ceased for other reasons, summed over 2023–2025 and divided by franchised units at the start of 2023. Units the franchisor reacquired are not closures. This is an Item 20 count, not a failure rate.

Every figure above comes from the Club Pilates Franchise Disclosure Document issued 2026-04-17 and amended 2026-08-07, as filed with the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions (filing 641077, registry record). The PDF is the franchisor's and is not hosted here; the item and page beside each figure is where to check it. Item 7 and Item 20 tables were read cell by cell; Item 19 was read by hand; each Item 20 year was checked to sum (start + opened − exits = end) before it was recorded.
