Bulls Say, Bears Say
Bulls Say
Digital Platform PerformanceEarly sales from the EVM platform are stabilizing consumer perceptions of value, which can support sustained sales without deep discounting.
Loyalty Program GrowthPlans to grow the MyMcDonald's Rewards user base should increase visit frequency among active members and help lift comparable sales.
U.S. Demand MomentumAnalyst highlights relative strength in the U.S. business that supports confidence in near-term same-store sales momentum.
Bears Say
Franchisee Funding RiskDeteriorating franchise economics raise doubts about franchisees' ability to fund programs once corporate support ends, risking program continuity.
Margin Pressure And Guidance OpacityAggressive value pricing in the U.S. is limiting margin visibility and has contributed to traffic softness, while reduced detail in guidance increases near-term profitability uncertainty.
Promotion DependencyHeavy reliance on promotional tactics such as Monopoly and large-value combos may mask underlying demand and create downside if promotional effects fade among core lower-income customers.
