An escape room business provides customers with a place to play popular escape games. Games vary in complexity and duration, but most last for approximately one hour, including the pregame instruction. Teams must work together to solve puzzles through the discovery of clues. Escape room businesses usually have one or more game rooms and consumers pay per game. They can also rent out rooms for private games.

This Financial Model presents an advanced 5-year financial plan for a startup or operating Escape Room Business and is a flexible tool for owners to forecast business financial and operational activities. It includes assumptions and calculations of the Number of Games and Players, Occupancy Rates, Game Participation Fees, Payroll & Operating Expenses, Fixed Assets & Depreciation, Financing through Debt & Equity, and Exit Valuation assumptions in case of a potential sale of the business.

The structure of the template follows Financial Modeling Best Practices principles and is fully customizable.
