The airlines are always bankrupt anyways, so anything they can do to save a buck, they did, they had to

Chick Fil A is nowhere near the financial conditions of AA

Percentages based on Chick-fail-A's franchise agreement.

Chick-fail_A asserts the average franchisee clears $100,000.00/year. All the other values are set to pretty much make that fit.

If you have better numbers, I'd be happy to drop them in the spreadsheet.

Translation: In my estimation of a modest 10% drop in sales, Ballard stands to cost them ≈$55,000,000 in lost revenue over the course of a year. Maybe he can slither out of it by blaming Trump?

Maybe not.

The average per store gross is around 4.1 million

Not yet.

[Trump.Deplorable]

10% is way steep also not considering growth, it is the only chain that is growing double digits year after year

And we are in the Christmas shopping season so Chick Fil As that are in malls or around malls are going to be packed even more.

I think your 10% drop is unlikely, I doubt their will even be a drop and if it is, it will be in growth, so instead of growing at 13% they grew at 12.9%

Anomaly at best

I guess that not being a fast food habitue`, the original stories were all I needed to make a decision...the next time I don’t go to a fast food establishment, it will be Chick-fil-A that I’m not going to...
