Everything below is free, read straight off Prism Specialties's registered filing. The $99 report is the part a single FDD can't give you: the earnings figures themselves, and where every number lands against cleaning & restoration peers.
The numbers above tell you what Prism Specialties discloses. The report tells you whether that's good:
- The earnings figures themselves — the average unit revenue Prism Specialties puts on paper in Item 19, and what it does and doesn't include.
- Where every number ranks — investment, fees, royalty, earnings and churn against cleaning & restoration median and quartile. This is the part no single FDD, and no AI reading one, can produce.
- What's driving the medium risk read — the specific figures behind it, not the label.
- The litigation, split properly — each case, and which ones franchisees brought against the franchisor rather than the reverse.
- The questions to ask before you sign — drawn from what Prism Specialties's own filing leaves open, in the words to use on the call.

How much does a Prism Specialties franchise make?
Prism Specialties 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 average revenue Prism Specialties reports, what that figure does and doesn't include, and where it ranks against cleaning & restoration peers are in the full report. See every cleaning & restoration brand that discloses earnings in the Cleaning & restoration franchises with disclosed Item 19 earnings ranking.
Prism Specialties 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 Prism Specialties's 7% royalty, the ad fund, rent, payroll, supplies and debt service. No FDD tells you a Prism Specialties franchise's profit, because profit depends on your site, your rent and how you run it — so treat any "Prism Specialties franchise profit" figure quoted elsewhere as someone's estimate, not a disclosure. The full report sets Prism Specialties's disclosed revenue against its total ongoing fee load, so you can see what that revenue has to cover before anything reaches you.
Prism Specialties lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)
We do not publish a litigation answer for Prism Specialties. Item 3 could not be read reliably from this particular filing, and a claim that a company has no legal history is not one to make on a failed parse — so we say we do not know instead. Item 3 of the FDD itself is the place to check; the methodology page explains what we do and do not machine-read.
Prism Specialties closures & failure rate
Before you sign, Prism Specialties 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 Prism Specialties's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a cleaning & restoration 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. Prism Specialties's latest tables show a growing franchised network. The actual closure and termination counts, and how Prism Specialties's churn ranks against cleaning & restoration peers, are in the full report.
