“The use of the word ‘franchise,’ we don’t take lightly. It’s not a sloppy or casual word,” CEO Josh Sapan said this morning during an earnings call. “We’ve studied the best. Some have been around 30, 40, 50 years. We have a chance for a lot of life in the franchise.” He added that the franchise is “in great shape and the people who are managing that great shape are motivated.”
