Mathnasium Centers franchise profit — what the FDD discloses
Plainly: Mathnasium Centers does not disclose franchise profit or revenue. Its most recent FDD makes no Item 19 financial performance representation, so there is no franchisor-backed earnings figure for Mathnasium Centers — any number quoted elsewhere is an estimate, not a disclosure. The absence is itself worth weighing (63% of child services & education franchisors in our corpus do disclose); the fees, litigation and outlet churn Mathnasium Centers's FDD does contain are on this page.

Mathnasium Centers lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)
Mathnasium Centers's most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2026) does disclose legal proceedings 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 Mathnasium Centers 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. Item 3 of the source FDD describes each case.
Mathnasium Centers closures & failure rate
Before you sign, Mathnasium Centers 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 Mathnasium Centers'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. Mathnasium Centers's latest tables show a growing franchised network. Its franchised-outlet closure rate — closures, terminations and non-renewals against outlets — is 1.5%, against a child services & education median of 2.5% — at or better than the category. Net franchised outlets moved +48 to 1,043 in the latest reported year.
Who owns Mathnasium Centers?
Mathnasium Centers's franchise is offered by Mathnasium Franchisor LLC — the franchisor named on the cover of its most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2026), and the entity a franchisee actually signs with. That name comes straight off the filing at MN CARDS; it identifies the franchisor, not necessarily the ultimate parent company behind it. The same franchisor files separate FDDs for other brands, which is worth knowing — sibling brands share a franchise-support organization but disclose their own numbers:

Mathnasium Centers franchise — frequently asked
Who owns Mathnasium Centers — who is the franchisor?
Mathnasium Centers's most recently filed FDD (2026) names Mathnasium Franchisor LLC as the franchisor — the entity you would actually sign the franchise agreement with, as stated on the disclosure document itself. The same franchisor also files FDDs for Mathnasium Learning Centers. A registry filing names the franchisor, not necessarily its ultimate parent company.
How much does a Mathnasium Centers franchise cost?

That price is the franchisor's own estimate of what it takes to open, not a quote. Against child services & education peers it sits in the lower quartile (median $134,630).
How much profit does a Mathnasium Centers franchise make?
Mathnasium Centers makes no Item 19 financial performance representation, so there is no franchisor-disclosed revenue or profit figure for Mathnasium Centers at all — and profit would never be disclosed even where earnings are, because it depends on your rent, labor and how you operate. Any profit figure quoted elsewhere is an estimate, not a disclosure.
Does Mathnasium Centers disclose financial performance (Item 19)?

Are there lawsuits against Mathnasium Centers?
Mathnasium Centers's most recently filed FDD (2026) discloses legal proceedings in Item 3. Item 3 covers the franchisor, its predecessors, parents and affiliates — so a disclosed case is not necessarily a suit against Mathnasium Centers itself, and a disclosure is not a finding of wrongdoing.
