Key Performance Indicators, page 64
1.You newly disclose the number of "studios no longer operating." Please explain to us and
disclose the exact status of theses studios. If these studios are not considered to be closed,
explain to us if you ever determine a studio to be closed and if so your basis for such
determination. In your response to prior comment 1 you state you do not use "closed
studios" as a key performance indicator. Nevertheless, explain to us why you believe it is
not useful to disclose to investors the number of studios closed.

2.You disclose the number of studios opened is the same as the number of studios
operated/operating. You also disclose a studio is considered no longer operating and
excluded from the total number of studios operating if it has no sales for nine consecutive
months or more. From this it appears the number of studios opened/operated/operating at
the end of each period presented includes studios that have not generated revenue for a
period of less than nine consecutive months. Please explain to us and disclose why you
consider studios as opened/operated/operating when they are not generating any revenue.
Also tell us the number of these studios included in the number of studios
opened/operated/operating at the end of each period presented.
3.Please explain to us and disclose as appropriate when and how you determine a franchised
studio to be considered no longer operating. In doing so tell us what
communication/interaction you have with the franchisee regarding the status of the
operation of the studio in jeopardy of becoming nonoperating before and after a studio
first does not generate revenue. Additionally, tell us why you believe it is appropriate to
wait nine months before you determine a studio to be nonoperating.
4.You disclose "If a studio deemed to be no longer operating subsequently generates sales at
a future date, it re-enters the operating studio count ". For purposes of reentering the
operating studio count, please tell us how you define "sales." Also, tell us if there is a
level or period of sales to be achieved before the previously deemed nonoperating studio
is again considered to be operating. If not, explain why it is appropriate to consider a
previously deemed nonoperating studio to be considered operating with a nominal amount
or brief period of activity.
Please contact Aamira Chaudhry at 202-551-3389 or Doug Jones at 202-551-3309 if you
have questions regarding comments on the financial statements and related matters.
Sincerely,
