How much does a ActiKare In Home Care Services franchise make?
ActiKare In Home Care Services 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 headline figure did not machine-read cleanly from this filing, so we don't print one; Item 19 of the source FDD has the tables. See every other brand that discloses earnings in the Other franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings ranking.
ActiKare In Home Care Services 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 ActiKare In Home Care Services's 3% royalty, the ad fund, rent, payroll, supplies and debt service. No FDD tells you a ActiKare In Home Care Services franchise's profit, because profit depends on your site, your rent and how you run it — so treat any "ActiKare In Home Care Services franchise profit" figure quoted elsewhere as someone's estimate, not a disclosure.
ActiKare In Home Care Services lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)
ActiKare In Home Care Services's most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2020) discloses no litigation in Item 3. That is a real signal rather than a gap: the FTC Franchise Rule requires a franchisor to disclose material litigation involving itself, its predecessors, parents, affiliates and management, so an empty Item 3 in a current filing means there was nothing it was required to report. It is worth reading alongside the churn numbers — a system can have a clean Item 3 and still be losing franchisees, which is what Item 20 shows.
ActiKare In Home Care Services closures & failure rate
Before you sign, ActiKare In Home Care Services 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 ActiKare In Home Care Services's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a franchise 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. ActiKare In Home Care Services's latest tables show a shrinking franchised network — more units left than opened. Its franchised-outlet closure rate — closures, terminations and non-renewals against outlets — is 1.5%. Net franchised outlets moved -1 to 130 in the latest reported year.
Who owns ActiKare In Home Care Services?
ActiKare In Home Care Services's franchise is offered by ActiKare, Inc. — the franchisor named on the cover of its most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2020), and the entity a franchisee actually signs with. That name comes straight off the filing at MN CARDS; it identifies the franchisor, not necessarily the ultimate parent company behind it.
