73% of the child services & education franchises in our New York dataset disclose Item 19 financial performance representations. Among the 50 that report unit revenue, the median is $537K per location per year. The remainder rely on Item 1 (business background) and Item 7 (initial investment) without making earnings claims. Brands disclosing Item 19 give you the strongest basis for projecting unit-level revenue.
NY broad franchise definition can capture business arrangements that escape regulation in other states. NYC labor (Fast Food Wage Act, paid leave) and rent costs make national Item 19 averages misleading.
New York is a registration state. Verify the franchisor's registration with the New York Department of Law (Investor Protection Bureau) before signing anything. An offer to sell a franchise in New York without registration is itself a violation of state law and a major red flag.
