PRIME IV HYDRATION & WELLNESS (UNIT) Item 20: outlets, closures & growth
In its latest FDD Item 20 (fiscal 2025), PRIME IV HYDRATION & WELLNESS (UNIT) reported 210 franchised outlets at year end. 2 of 152 franchised outlets open at the start of the year left the system — an annualized exit rate of 1.3%— while 60 new outlets opened. Systemwide units moved +114.1% over 2023–2025.
| Status (FTC) | 2023 | 2024 | 2025 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Outlets at start | 48 | 99 | 156 |
| Opened | 51 | 59 | 60 |
| Transfers | 1 | 8 | 9 |
| Terminations | 0 | 2 | 2 |
| Non-renewals | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Reacquired by franchisor | 0 | 3 | 0 |
| Ceased — other reasons | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Outlets at end | 99 | 156 | 212 |
| Net change | +51 | +57 | +56 |
2 terminations + 0 non-renewals + 0 ceased (other) = 2 exits ÷ 152 at start = 1.3%
These are the three FTC Item 20 statuses in which a franchisee involuntarily or terminally leaves the system. Transfers (9) are resales, not exits; reacquisitions by the franchisor (0) are tracked separately. There is no official “failure rate” — this annualized exit rate is the disclosed, measurable floor.
