How much does a Apex Fun Run franchise make?
Apex Fun Run is one of the franchisors that answers this on the record: its most recent FDD makes an Item 19 financial performance representation — actual unit earnings figures, disclosed by the franchisor itself. The average revenue Apex Fun Run reports, what that figure does and doesn't include, and where it ranks against child services & education peers are in the full report. See every child services & education brand that discloses earnings in the Child care & education franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings ranking.
Apex Fun Run franchise profit vs. revenue
Revenue is not profit. An Item 19 almost always reports sales — what a location takes in — not what an owner keeps. Out of that number come Apex Fun Run's 6% royalty, the ad fund, rent, payroll, supplies and debt service. No FDD tells you a Apex Fun Run franchise's profit, because profit depends on your site, your rent and how you run it — so treat any "Apex Fun Run franchise profit" figure quoted elsewhere as someone's estimate, not a disclosure. The full report sets Apex Fun Run's disclosed revenue against its total ongoing fee load, so you can see what that revenue has to cover before anything reaches you.
Apex Fun Run lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)
Apex Fun Run's most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2025) does disclose 1 legal proceeding in Item 3 . Item 3 is the item where a franchisor must put its material legal history on the record. Two things it is not: it covers the franchisor and its predecessors, parents and affiliates, so a disclosed case is not necessarily a suit against Apex Fun Run itself; and a disclosure is a fact, not a finding of wrongdoing — most entries are contract disputes with former franchisees, which every large system accumulates. The full Apex Fun Run report lists each case with what it was about and how it ended, separates franchisee disputes from corporate and securities matters, and flags the ones a franchisee started — the split that actually matters, because franchisees suing their franchisor is the signal a buyer is looking for.
Apex Fun Run closures & failure rate
Before you sign, Apex Fun Run will hand you a list of current owners to call as references — and they choose who's on that list. It won't include the owners who quit, got bought out, or were forced out last year. The FDD does report that number, even though the reference list leaves those people off. Below is what Apex Fun Run's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a child services & education of this kind.
The closest thing an FDD has to a failure rate is Item 20 — outlet openings, closures, terminations and non-renewals, reported by the franchisor. Apex Fun Run's latest tables show a growing franchised network. The actual closure and termination counts, and how Apex Fun Run's churn ranks against child services & education peers, are in the full report.
