McDonald's Corporation reported strong financial performance, driven by growth in global sales and increased customer loyalty. In the fourth quarter, global comparable sales rose 5.7%, led by a 6.8% increase in the U.S. market and a 5.2% rise in International Operated Markets. Consolidated revenues for the quarter reached $7.01 billion, up 10%. For the full year, global comparable sales grew 3.1%, while systemwide sales increased 7% to over $139 billion, and consolidated revenues approached $26.9 billion, marking a 4% increase from 2024. Diluted earnings per share were $3.03 for Q4, up 8%, and $11.95 for the full year, up 5%.



Operationally, the company benefited from its loyalty program, with systemwide sales to loyalty members growing 20% to nearly $37 billion and active 90-day loyalty users rising 19% to approximately 210 million. In the U.S., sales growth was supported by positive check and guest count trends, largely due to effective marketing and a focus on value leadership, as highlighted by CEO Chris Kempczinski. Financial results also reflected pre-tax charges from the "Accelerating the Organization" restructuring initiative, totaling $80 million in Q4 and $229 million for the year. The company increased its quarterly cash dividend by 5% to $1.86 per share, and free cash flow rose to $7.19 billion, up from $6.67 billion in 2024.
