We were retained to prepare an expert report in a dispute between a franchisor and franchisee arising out of the franchisor’s alleged breach of contract by introducing a new store into the exclusive geographic territory of the franchisee.
In developing our damages model, we reviewed historic revenue growth trends for the affected store, as well as revenue growth data for the other 300+ stores in the chain and for the new, competing store.
Our model was used by the parties to negotiate a settlement.
