How much does a M14Hoops franchise make?
M14Hoops 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 M14Hoops reports, what that figure does and doesn't include, and where it ranks against fitness peers are in the full report. See every fitness brand that discloses earnings in the Gym & fitness franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings ranking.
M14Hoops 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 M14Hoops's 8% royalty, the ad fund, rent, payroll, supplies and debt service. No FDD tells you a M14Hoops franchise's profit, because profit depends on your site, your rent and how you run it — so treat any "M14Hoops franchise profit" figure quoted elsewhere as someone's estimate, not a disclosure. The full report sets M14Hoops's disclosed revenue against its total ongoing fee load, so you can see what that revenue has to cover before anything reaches you.
M14Hoops lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)
M14Hoops's most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2026) discloses no litigation in Item 3. That is a real signal rather than a gap: the FTC Franchise Rule requires a franchisor to disclose material litigation involving itself, its predecessors, parents, affiliates and management, so an empty Item 3 in a current filing means there was nothing it was required to report. It is worth reading alongside the churn numbers — a system can have a clean Item 3 and still be losing franchisees, which is what Item 20 shows.
M14Hoops closures & failure rate
Before you sign, M14Hoops 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 M14Hoops's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a fitness 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. M14Hoops's latest tables show a shrinking franchised network — more units left than opened. The actual closure and termination counts, and how M14Hoops's churn ranks against fitness peers, are in the full report.
