NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

McDonald’s Corporation, the registrant, together with its subsidiaries, is referred to herein as the "Company." The Company, its franchisees and suppliers, are referred to herein as the "System."

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company’s December 31, 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results for the quarter ended March 31, 2022 do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for the full year.

During the first quarter of 2022, McDonald's announced it was temporarily suspending operations and closing restaurants in Russia and Ukraine. The temporary closures were effective at the end of February in Ukraine and mid-March in Russia. The Company is supporting its businesses in these markets through the continuation of employee salaries and lease payments as well as providing support to the Company's supply chain in the region.

Restaurant Information

The following table presents restaurant information by ownership type:

Restaurants at March 31,			2022						2021
Conventional franchised			21,558						21,496
Developmental licensed			7,981						7,705
Foreign affiliated			8,013						7,283
Total Franchised			37,552						36,484
Company-operated			2,792						2,676
Total Systemwide restaurants			40,344						39,160

Company-operated restaurants include 827 restaurants in Russia and Ukraine that were temporarily closed during the first quarter 2022 due to the ongoing military conflict in the region.

The results of operations of restaurant businesses purchased and sold in transactions with franchisees were not material either individually or in the aggregate to the condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods prior to purchase and sale.

Per Common Share Information

Diluted earnings per common share is calculated using net income divided by diluted weighted-average shares. Diluted weighted-average shares include weighted-average shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of share-based compensation, calculated using the treasury stock method, of 5.0 million shares and 5.2 million shares for the quarters 2022 and 2021, respectively. Share-based compensation awards that would have been antidilutive, and therefore were not included in the calculation of diluted weighted-average shares, totaled 1.7 million shares and 3.6 million shares for the quarters 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Leases

In July 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2021-05, "Leases (Topic 842): Lessors—Certain Leases with Variable Lease Payments" ("ASU 2021-05"). The pronouncement amends the current guidance on classification for a lease that includes variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate. Under the amended guidance, a lessor must classify as an operating lease any lease that would otherwise be classified as a sales-type or direct financing lease and that would result in the recognition of a selling loss at lease commencement. ASU 2021-05 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, including applicable interim periods. The Company adopted the new standard effective January 1, 2022. The adoption of this standard did not have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Reference Rate Reform

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU No. 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting" (“ASU 2020-04”). The pronouncement provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the current guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens related to the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. The guidance was effective upon issuance and may be applied prospectively to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into or evaluated on or before December 31, 2022. The adoption of ASU 2020-04 will not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

Updates to Significant Accounting Policies

Long-lived Assets and Goodwill

Long-lived assets and Goodwill are typically reviewed for impairment annually in the fourth quarter and whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable or if an indicator of impairment exists. The recent military conflict between Russia and Ukraine has created significant uncertainty and risk in these McDonald’s markets. As such, the Company conducted an analysis after temporarily suspending operations in Russia and Ukraine during the first quarter of 2022. The Company continues to monitor the economic uncertainty, while assessing the financial impact and outlook for restaurant operations in these markets. As a result of the Company's analysis, and in consideration of the totality of events and circumstances, there was no impairment recorded during the first quarter of 2022.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company’s net investment in Russia and Ukraine was approximately $600 million, primarily consisting of building and equipment assets. In addition, there was approximately $725 million of cumulative foreign currency translation losses reflected in the AOCI section of the condensed consolidated statement of shareholder’s equity at March 31, 2022.

Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate was 28.3% and 21.3% for the quarters ended 2022 and 2021, respectively. The tax rate for the quarter ended 2022 was impacted by the non-deductibility for tax purposes of the $500 million of nonoperating expense to reserve for a potential settlement related to an international tax matter. Excluding the impacts of the $500 million of nonoperating expense and current and prior year strategic gains and charges, the effective income tax rate was 21.3% and 20.9% for the quarters ended 2022 and 2021, respectively.

Fair Value Measurements

The Company measures certain financial assets and liabilities at fair value. Fair value disclosures are reflected in a three-level hierarchy, maximizing the use of observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs. The Company did not have any significant changes to the valuation techniques used to measure fair value as described in the Company's December 31, 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

At March 31, 2022, the fair value of the Company’s debt obligations was estimated at $35.4 billion, compared to a carrying amount of $34.0 billion. The fair value of debt obligations is based upon quoted market prices, Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy. The carrying amount of cash and equivalents and notes receivable approximate fair value.

Financial Instruments and Hedging Activities

The Company is exposed to global market risks, including the effect of changes in interest rates and foreign currency fluctuations. The Company uses foreign currency denominated debt and derivative instruments to mitigate the impact of these changes. The Company does not hold or issue derivatives for trading purposes.

The following table presents the fair values of derivative instruments included on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet:

			Derivative Assets																		Derivative Liabilities
In millions			Balance Sheet Classification						March 31, 2022						December 31, 2021						Balance Sheet Classification						March 31, 2022						December 31, 2021

Fair Value Hedges

The Company enters into fair value hedges to reduce the exposure to changes in fair values of certain liabilities. The Company enters into fair value hedges that convert a portion of its fixed rate debt into floating rate debt by use of interest rate swaps. At March 31, 2022, the carrying amount of fixed-rate debt that was effectively converted was an equivalent notional amount of $1.0 billion, which included a decrease of $41.3 million of cumulative hedging adjustments. For the quarter ended March 31, 2022, the Company recognized a $46.1 million loss on the fair value of interest rate swaps, and a corresponding gain on the fair value of the related hedged debt instrument to interest expense.

Cash Flow Hedges

The Company enters into cash flow hedges to reduce the exposure to variability in certain expected future cash flows. To protect against the reduction in value of forecasted foreign currency cash flows (such as royalties denominated in foreign currencies), the Company uses foreign currency forwards to hedge a portion of anticipated exposures. The hedges cover up to the next 18 months for certain exposures and are denominated in various currencies. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had foreign currency derivatives outstanding with an equivalent notional amount of $1.4 billion that hedged a portion of forecasted foreign currency denominated cash flows.

To protect against the variability of interest rates on anticipated bond issuances, the Company may use treasury locks to hedge a portion of expected future cash flows. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had derivatives outstanding with a notional amount of $500 million that hedge a portion of forecasted cash flows.

Based on market conditions at March 31, 2022, the $7.5 million in cumulative cash flow hedging losses, after tax, is not expected to have a significant effect on earnings over the next 12 months.

Net Investment Hedges

The Company uses foreign currency denominated debt (third-party and intercompany) as well as foreign currency derivatives to hedge its investments in certain foreign subsidiaries and affiliates. Realized and unrealized translation adjustments from these hedges are included in shareholders' equity in the foreign currency translation component of Other comprehensive income ("OCI") and offset translation adjustments on the underlying net assets of foreign subsidiaries and affiliates, which also are recorded in OCI. As of March 31, 2022, $12.2 billion of the Company's third-party foreign currency denominated debt, $1.5 billion of the Company's intercompany foreign currency denominated debt, and $267.4 million of foreign currency derivatives were designated to hedge investments in certain foreign subsidiaries and affiliates.

Undesignated Derivatives

The Company enters into certain derivatives that are not designated for hedge accounting. Therefore, the changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recognized immediately in earnings together with the gain or loss from the hedged balance sheet position. As an example, the Company enters into equity derivative contracts, including total return swaps, to hedge market-driven changes in certain of its supplemental benefit plan liabilities.
