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 | sales per year, franchised clubs, calendar 2025 (Section 2 Table A, All Clubs row) | |
|---|---|---|
| Sample | 459 units: 459 of the 460 US franchised Clubs open at 2025-12-31 (one excluded); Table A also splits the clubs into sales quartiles, Table B by club size, and Section 1 gives full P&Ls for the 8 corporate-owned clubs (average total revenue $466,552) | |
| Period | 2025 calendar year | |
| High / low | $1,623,508 / $45,714 | |
Revenue to investment
Formula: Item 19 All Clubs median / Item 7 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.
Source and method
Every figure above comes from the Snap Fitness Franchise Disclosure Document issued 2026-05-07, as filed with the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions (filing 641659, 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.
