FTC Item 19 Earnings Claim The FTC's Franchise Rule permits a franchisor to provide information about the actual or potential financial performance of its franchised and/or franchisor-owned outlets, if there is a reasonable basis for the information, and if the information is included in the disclosure document.

FDD Item 19 is the section of the Franchise Disclosure Document where franchisors must disclose their financial performance representations. If a franchisor elects to make a financial performance representation, it must be fully disclosed in Item 19 and must comply with federal and state franchise laws.

Franchising is a way of running a business. The franchisor largely controls how the franchisee's business is run. They also control the name, brand, and business systems used. A franchise agreement is a legal contract.

Colorado is not a franchise registration state nor a franchise filing state, so you may offer or sell your franchise without registering or filing your Franchise Disclosure Document (?FDD?) with the state, provided that you are compliant with the Federal Franchise Rule.

Item 7 of the Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD) provides a prospective franchisee with the type and amount of expenditures it will incur before opening its franchise unit, as well as an estimate of the type and amount of expenditures it may incur during the initial period of operating its franchise unit.

Under Item 19 of the Franchise Disclosure Document (FDD), if a franchisor makes financial performance representations (FPR) to prospective franchisees in the sale of a franchise, it must disclose such FPRs. Franchisors are not required to make FPRs to prospective franchisees.
