How much does a Pure Barre franchise make?

Pure Barre 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 Pure Barre 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.

Pure Barre 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 Pure Barre's 7% royalty, the ad fund, rent, payroll, supplies and debt service. No FDD tells you a Pure Barre franchise's profit, because profit depends on your site, your rent and how you run it — so treat any "Pure Barre franchise profit" figure quoted elsewhere as someone's estimate, not a disclosure. The full report sets Pure Barre's disclosed revenue against its total ongoing fee load, so you can see what that revenue has to cover before anything reaches you.

Pure Barre lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)

Pure Barre's most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2025) does disclose 8 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 Pure Barre 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 Pure Barre 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.

Pure Barre closures & failure rate

Before you sign, Pure Barre 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 Pure Barre'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. Pure Barre's latest tables show a growing franchised network. The actual closure and termination counts, and how Pure Barre's churn ranks against fitness peers, are in the full report.

Pure Barre franchise — frequently asked

Who owns Pure Barre — who is the franchisor?

Pure Barre's most recently filed FDD (2025) names PB Franchising SPV, LLC as the franchisor — the entity you would actually sign the franchise agreement with, as stated on the disclosure document itself. A registry filing names the franchisor, not necessarily its ultimate parent company.

How much does a Pure Barre franchise cost?

Pure Barre's most recently filed FDD (Item 7) puts the total estimated initial investment at a range disclosed in Item 7, with an initial franchise fee of $50,000 and a 7% royalty. That price is the franchisor's own estimate of what it takes to open, not a quote. The full report breaks down every fee line and benchmarks it against fitness peers.

How much profit does a Pure Barre franchise make?

Pure Barre discloses unit earnings in Item 19, but that figure is revenue — sales — not profit. Royalties (7% of gross for Pure Barre), the ad fund, rent, payroll and supplies all come out of it, and no FDD discloses what an owner nets. Any Pure Barre franchise profit number quoted elsewhere is an estimate. The full report shows the disclosed revenue against the full ongoing fee load it has to cover.

Does Pure Barre disclose financial performance (Item 19)?

Yes — Pure Barre reports unit-level earnings in Item 19. The full report shows the actual revenue figures and how they rank against fitness peers.

Are there lawsuits against Pure Barre?

Pure Barre's most recently filed FDD (2025) discloses 8 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 Pure Barre itself, and a disclosure is not a finding of wrongdoing. The full report lists each case, separates franchisee disputes from corporate and securities matters, and flags the franchisee-initiated ones.

Is Pure Barre a good franchise to buy?

Nobody can answer that from Pure Barre's numbers alone — it comes down to how its investment, earnings, litigation and franchisee churn stack up against fitness peers, which is what the full report is for. Our read on this filing is medium risk, stated free above. For $99 you get the figures driving that read, the actual Item 19 earnings (disclosed in this FDD), where every figure ranks against peers, and the specific questions to ask the franchisor before you sign.
