FirstLight Home Care’s figure covers the 176 location or territorys it counted, each open for at least a full year — not every location it has open.
This is revenue — what those businesses billed. It is not profit, and nothing in this filing says what an owner took home.

All of these come from one table, so they describe one group of businesses. Statistics from two different tables would describe two different groups, and the distance between them would be an artefact of putting them side by side.

FirstLight Home Care spells out 10 of the basic facts behind its revenue figures — above typical in this field.
This counts how many of the basic facts behind a revenue figure the filing spells out — who was counted, over what period, on what basis. It measures the disclosure, not the businesses: a system can explain little and trade well.

How to read owner revenue
- Revenue is not profit. Item 19 reports what businesses billed, before caregiver wages, rent, insurance or anything else. No figure in these filings says what an owner took home.
- The cohort is the fact. A filing chooses which businesses to report on — how many, how long open, whether a location or an owner's whole operation. Change that choice and the number changes, so we state it beside the figure every time.
- Two systems' figures only compare when they were measured the same way. Same kind of unit, same definition of revenue, same maturity rule. Where fewer than three systems report a figure the same way, there is no comparison to make and we do not invent one.
›The numbers behind this page
What this filing means by revenue
For purposes of the first table below, "Gross Revenue" means that revenue for the calendar year 2024 on which a franchisee pays royalty fees (which is referred to as "Gross Revenue" in the Franchise Agreement). This is the total amount of money the franchisee and its owners receive for all goods and services rendered in connection with the Marks, and all other income of any kind derived directly or indirectly in connection with the operation of the Item 19 Business.
| Statistic | Annual revenue |
|---|---|
| The lowest | $191K |
| The middle business | $1.13M |
| The average | $1.63M |
| The highest | $7.8M |
What this filing does not disclose
- Anything about costs or margin: Item 19 reports what came in, not what was left.
Every figure on this page is read from FirstLight Home Care’s own 2026 disclosure document. At most one revenue statistic per system becomes its headline, chosen by a published rule that prefers franchised units, a unit-level basis, a mature group and the largest count. Figures from systems that report on a different basis are never pooled with these. p. 55 ↗
