Revenue model

1. Extended Service Agreement Sales: JB Warranties earns revenue through the sale of extended warranty agreements to HVAC and plumbing contractors. Contractors purchase warranty plans to offer to their customers, generating margins on the initial sale. The warranties cover repair costs for mechanical breakdowns including parts and labor for the duration of the agreement (1-12 years). Revenue is transaction-based with contractors buying agreements at wholesale rates and selling to homeowners.
2. OEM Program Management: JB Warranties manages extended warranty programs for major OEMs including Mitsubishi (Mini-split and VRF programs), Samsung, and LG. These branded programs are powered by JB Warranties' platform and generate revenue through program management and administration fees.
3. Dealer Marketplace Services: JB Warranties operates a dealer marketplace providing access to business solutions including financing, field service management software, and other contractor services. While the marketplace facilitates third-party offerings, it serves as a dealer acquisition and retention tool.
