Bulls Say, Bears Say
Bulls Say
Digital And LoyaltyGrowth in MyMcDonald's Rewards membership and rising app usage can increase visit frequency and generate higher sales from active customers.
International Market ShareConsistent everyday value messaging and new restaurant growth in international markets can sustain market share gains despite broader industry softness.
Same-store SalesImproving U.S. same-store sales momentum driven by the Extra Value Meal relaunch, focused menu innovation, and targeted marketing can support revenue re-acceleration.
Bears Say
Franchisee Program FundingDeclining franchisee profitability and a lower return on local marketing investment could reduce franchisees' willingness to fund promotional programs once corporate support ends.
Margin VisibilityAn aggressive value pricing strategy combined with prior price increases that outpaced grocery and industry benchmarks creates uncertainty around U.S. margin visibility and earnings stability.
Promotional DependenceDependence on large promotions such as Monopoly and deep combo deals risks masking underlying traffic weakness among core lower-income consumers.
