Only systems that state a 65-and-over population are drawn: a system sizing on the whole population has measured something different, and the two are never ranked against each other. Where a filing says “at least” a number, the qualifier travels with the value.
What an owner has to hit, and what happens if they miss
What an owner may not do
- Franchisor may permit certain non-authorized services/products to be offered locally or regionally (e.g., test marketing); franchisee required to participate in test marketing no more than once every 3 years.p. 45 ↗
- Franchisee may offer only the services and products the franchisor specifies (e.g., house cleaning, meal prep, child care, personal care, medication reminders, appointment scheduling, transportation, care management, companionship) and may not sell unauthorized services/products; must discontinue disapproved ones.p. 45 ↗
- Franchisor may periodically change required and/or authorized products or services with no limits on its right to do so; franchisee may have to add/replace equipment or make modifications to maintain uniformity.p. 45 ↗
- Franchisee may opt out of national account programs; if it does, franchisor may authorize another party (including another franchisee) to perform national account work in the franchisee's Protected Territory.p. 45 ↗
- The Approved Location may only be used to operate the Franchised Business and not for any other purpose without franchisor consent.p. 44 ↗

- Franchisee has sole discretion over prices charged to customers, but for certain national partnerships the franchisor may set the maximum price for defined services.p. 45 ↗
SYNERGY HomeCare’s filing states that it has no litigation to disclose.
That is 0.0 per 100 locations, against 1.3 per 100 locations across the whole field. A count of proceedings mostly measures how large and how old a system is, which is why it is shown as a rate and never as a score.
Pending Actions: None. Other than these actions, no litigation is required to be disclosed in this disclosure document.
How to read these terms
- Contract language does not summarize. Where a filing states a term in words, those words are what we publish, with the page they are on. Only the handful of terms that are genuinely numbers get compared with other systems.
- A territory is only comparable to one measured the same way. Some systems size on residents aged 65 and over, some on the whole population. We keep those apart and never rank one against the other.
- Disclosed cases are not a score. A count of proceedings mostly measures how big and how old a system is. We publish what each filing discloses, in its own words, with a rate per hundred locations so the count is not mistaken for a verdict.

What the agreement says about the minimums
- Sales you must reach: “You must achieve and maintain the minimum levels of average monthly Gross Sales (the “Minimum Monthly Average Sales Quota”) set forth below for each Protected Territory during the following Months of Operation:”
What this filing does not disclose
- How often owners manage to sell on: the filing reports no transfers.
Every term on this page is read from SYNERGY HomeCare’s own 2026 disclosure document, and the wording is the filing’s rather than ours. Territory sizes are compared only with systems measuring on the same basis. Disclosed proceedings are shown as the filing describes them, with their status where the filing states one. Source ↗
