TFW Advisors franchise profit — what the FDD discloses
Plainly: TFW Advisors does not disclose franchise profit or revenue. Its most recent FDD makes no Item 19 financial performance representation, so there is no franchisor-backed earnings figure for TFW Advisors — any number quoted elsewhere is an estimate, not a disclosure. The absence is itself worth weighing (42% of financial services franchisors in our corpus do disclose); the fees, litigation and outlet churn TFW Advisors's FDD does contain are on this page.

TFW Advisors lawsuits & legal history (FDD Item 3)
TFW Advisors's most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2025) 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.
TFW Advisors closures & failure rate
Before you sign, TFW Advisors 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 TFW Advisors's most recent filing shows, and whether it's normal for a financial services 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. TFW Advisors's latest tables show a growing franchised network. Net franchised outlets moved +6 to 6 in the latest reported year.
Who owns TFW Advisors?
TFW Advisors's franchise is offered by TFW Franchising, LLC — the franchisor named on the cover of its most recently filed Franchise Disclosure Document (2025), and the entity a franchisee actually signs with. That name comes straight off the filing at CA DFPI; it identifies the franchisor, not necessarily the ultimate parent company behind it.

TFW Advisors franchise — frequently asked
Who owns TFW Advisors — who is the franchisor?
TFW Advisors's most recently filed FDD (2025) names TFW Franchising, LLC as the franchisor — the entity you would actually sign the franchise agreement with, as stated on the disclosure document itself. A registry filing names the franchisor, not necessarily its ultimate parent company.
How much does a TFW Advisors franchise cost?
TFW Advisors's most recently filed FDD (Item 7) puts the total estimated initial investment at a range disclosed in Item 7 and a 10% royalty. That price is the franchisor's own estimate of what it takes to open, not a quote.
How much profit does a TFW Advisors franchise make?
TFW Advisors makes no Item 19 financial performance representation, so there is no franchisor-disclosed revenue or profit figure for TFW Advisors at all — and profit would never be disclosed even where earnings are, because it depends on your rent, labor and how you operate. Any profit figure quoted elsewhere is an estimate, not a disclosure.
Does TFW Advisors disclose financial performance (Item 19)?

Are there lawsuits against TFW Advisors?
No — TFW Advisors's most recently filed FDD (2025) discloses no litigation in Item 3. Franchisors must disclose material litigation involving themselves, their predecessors, parents, affiliates and management, so an empty Item 3 is a genuine signal rather than an omission.
