QC Kinetix Franchise Financial Model 2026

When does the unit turn a profit?

This clinic reaches profitability in its first year, generating $103,000 in EBITDA. By year five, annual EBITDA grows to $953,000 as patient volume for biologics treatments and care packages matures and operational efficiencies improve.

Profitability Levers

• Optimize biologics acquisition costs
• Increase care package sales
• Control medical labor scaling
• Boost patient referral volume

How much capital is needed?

You need a significant capital stack to launch, with leasehold improvements and equipment alone totaling $410,000. The model shows a minimum cash requirement of $629,000 to cover the ramp-up phase through August 2026, including the $55,000 franchise fee.

Primary Capital Uses

• Leasehold Improvements: $280,000
• Medical Equipment: $130,000
• Initial Franchise Fee: $55,000
• Furniture and Fixtures: $50,000

What is the investor return?

The model projects an Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of 3.77% and a Return on Equity (ROE) of 1.9. Full payback of the initial investment is defintely expected within 4 years of operation as the clinic reaches its $2.9M revenue potential.

Key Return Metrics

• 4-year payback period
• 3.77% IRR
• 1.9 ROE
• $953k Y5 EBITDA

What is the break-even point?

The clinic hits its break-even date in April 2026, just 4 months after launch. High fixed costs like the $12,000 monthly rent and $200,000 medical director salary mean you need consistent patient volume to cover your monthly overhead.

Speed to Break-Even

• Accelerate patient onboarding
• Manage clinical supply waste
• Monitor front-desk efficiency

What is the cash runway?

The lowest cash point occurs in August 2026 at $629,000 during the initial ramp-up. This reflects heavy front-end spending on build-out and the hiring of a Nurse Practitioner and Physician Assistant before patient revenue fully scales.

Cash Preservation Steps

• Phase IT system rollouts
• Negotiate leasehold payment timing
• Manage medical inventory levels
• Delay non-essential admin hires

How do scenarios affect results?

The model allows you to toggle between Low, Medium, and High cases to see how demand shifts impact cash. Changes in biologics treatment volume significantly impact the year-one EBITDA of $103,000 and the total cash needed during the first 12 months.

Driving High Performance

• Local marketing execution
• High-touch patient care
• Referral network growth
• Staff clinical productivity
