Does Wild Birds Unlimited’s Item 19 show profit or owner pay?
No. Wild Birds Unlimited’s Item 19 reports sales but no profit, costs or owner pay. Rent, payroll, supplies, loan payments and Item 6 fees such as the royalty (4% of Store Gross Sales) come out of sales before an owner is paid, so these figures cannot show what an owner earns.

How to interpret Wild Birds Unlimited’s Item 19 figures and sample limits · What Item 19 does and does not show about owner pay.
Some recurring charges depend on a sales subset, usage or another amount not supplied by the annual sales figure. We do not combine them into an all-sales percentage or estimate total fees. Reported sales are not owner income.
Scope of these figures: The selected Wild Birds Unlimited disclosures above retain their recorded periods and samples. The lead figure covers 326 stores operating for at least 24 full months as of year-end. They do not establish take-home owner income or the results of a new outlet. Read the linked Item 19 for the franchisor's definitions and exclusions.
