Financials
Research indicates that the revenue requirements to add an additional store come to $250,000, which is largely single time fees associated with opening the store. These costs are financed through owner personal financing, private investors and loans from the SBA. It should be noted that we expect to be operating at a loss for the first six months before advertising begins to take effect and draw in customers.
Buster’s will be receiving periodic inflow of cash to cover operating expenses during the upcoming two years in order to sustain profitability. Most of this funding has been arranged through lending institutions and private investors. No anticipation of cash flow problems is expected during the next three years.

Buster’s expects a strong rate of growth at the start of operations. Below are the expected financials over the next three years.
