A one-decision memo. What we are asking the board to approve, why now, what it costs, what it returns, and what we do if it does not work.
Approve a second yard in the south zone, opening April 2027, with two vans and four techs transferred from the main yard.
Drive times from the current yard to the south zone average 41 minutes. A yard there cuts it to 14, which is the difference between same-day and next-day for 5,600 new rooftops. Lease terms are agreed in principle at $6,200 a month for five years, with a break at month 24.
Monthly revenue from the south yard under the base case, against its fixed cost.
Month 12 below $55K a month: exercise the month-24 break, move the vans back, and the loss is capped at $140K.
