WHERE DOES THE MONEY COME FROM?

Management and FranchisingOwned and Leased 19%Distribution 13%
67% of all revenue comes from a single line: Management and Franchising.

That much dependence is a risk in itself: if this one line weakens, the whole company feels it directly.

Revenue last year:
$7.2B
The loss that same year:
$52M
Sales don’t cover the costs; the gap drains from the cash pile every year.

The company closed last year at a loss: costs ran above sales. The picture changes only if spending is reined in.

THE SALES TREND
Sales are growing overall, with a pause along the way.

Average growth of 49% a year over the last 4 years. Red columns mark years that ended in a loss.

53 / 100 · MoonshotScore

On our five-subject report card, H sits in the middle of the class: some subjects shine, others don’t. The grade moves as the numbers move.

The takeaway: H has solid sales but closed last year at a loss. The road back to profit runs through spending discipline.

Analysts’ average target sits above today’s price, yet the valuation grade (20/100) says the stock isn’t cheap.
