D-Bat franchise in Oklahoma: what the public record shows

Franchisees of D-Bat in Oklahoma have taken 5 SBA loans since 1991 (average $1,121,860)— too few resolved loans in-state to publish a local failure rate (we require a resolved cohort, never extrapolate), so the brand's national rate of 9.3% is the better guide. Its latest FDD Item 20 state table reports 4 franchised outlets in Oklahoma (fiscal 2025) — about 0.1 per 100k residents.

A broker is paid by the franchisor to place you. An independent CPA is paid by you — and the job is pressure-testing D-Bat's numbers, including talking you out of a bad deal.
