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, 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation have been included. The results for the quarter and six months ended June 30, 2024 do not necessarily indicate the results that may be expected for the full year.

Change in Presentation

In the first quarter of 2024, the Company changed its rounding presentation to the nearest whole number in millions of reported amounts, except per share data or as otherwise designated. The change in rounding presentation has been applied to all prior year amounts presented. In certain circumstances, this change adjusted previously reported balances, however, these changes were not significant, and no other changes were made to previously reported financial information. Additionally, certain columns and rows within the financial statements and tables presented may not add due to rounding. Percentages have been calculated from the underlying whole-dollar amounts for all periods presented.

Restaurant Information

The following table presents restaurant information by ownership type:

Restaurants at June 30,			2024									2023
Conventional franchised			21,892									21,719
Developmental licensed			8,815									8,357
Foreign affiliated			9,531									8,598
Total Franchised			40,238									38,674
Company-owned and operated			2,168									2,127
Total Systemwide restaurants			42,406									40,801

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 accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for the periods prior to purchase and sale.

Per Common Share Information

Diluted earnings per common share is calculated as 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 3.2 million shares and 4.7 million shares for the quarters ended 2024 and 2023, respectively, and 3.7 million shares and 4.6 million shares for the six months ended 2024 and 2023, respectively. Share-based compensation awards that would have been antidilutive, and therefore were not included in the calculation of diluted weighted-average shares, totaled 3.2 million shares and 1.2 million shares for the quarters ended 2024 and 2023, respectively, and 2.2 million shares and 2.1 million shares for the six months ended 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Segment Reporting

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures" ("ASU 2023-07"). The pronouncement expands annual and interim disclosure requirements for reportable segments, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods beginning after December 15, 2024. We are currently in the process of determining the impact that ASU 2023-07 will have on the Company's consolidated financial statement disclosures.

Income Taxes

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU No. 2023-09, "Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures" ("ASU 2023-09"). The pronouncement expands the disclosure requirements for income taxes, specifically related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. We are currently in the process of determining the impact that ASU 2023-09 will have on the Company's consolidated financial statement disclosures.

Accelerating the Organization

In January 2023, the Company announced an evolution of its successful Accelerating the Arches strategy. Enhancements to the strategy included the addition of Restaurant Development to the Company’s growth pillars and an internal effort to modernize ways of working, Accelerating the Organization, both of which are aimed at elevating the Company’s performance. Accelerating the Organization is designed to unlock further growth as the Company focuses on becoming faster, more innovative and more efficient for its customers and people.

The Company incurred $101 million of charges related to Accelerating the Organization in the six months ended June 30, 2024. These charges were recorded in the Other operating (income) expense, net line within the consolidated statement of income, and primarily recorded within the Corporate segment. For the period presented, restructuring charges primarily consisted of professional services costs. There were no significant non-cash impairment charges included in the amounts listed in the table below.

The following table summarizes the balance of accrued expenses related to this strategic initiative (in millions):

			Employee Termination Benefits			Costs to Terminate Contracts			Professional Services and Other Costs			Total
2024
Accrued Balance at Beginning of Year			$	41		$	11		$	7		$	59
Restructuring Costs Incurred			—			—			44			44
Cash Payments			(14)			(5)			(44)			(63)
Other Non-Cash Items			—			—			(1)			(1)
Accrued Balance at March 31, 2024			$	27		$	6		$	6		$	39
Restructuring Costs Incurred			(1)			—			58			57
Cash Payments			(5)			(1)			(50)			(56)
Other Non-Cash Items			—			—			—			—
Accrued Balance at June 30, 2024			$	21		$	5		$	14		$	40

The Company continues to evolve its ways of working by driving efficiency and effectiveness across the organization, primarily led by its Global Business Services organization. Transformation efforts under Accelerating the Organization will continue to result in various restructuring charges as the strategy progresses through its anticipated completion during 2027. The Company expects to incur approximately $250 million of restructuring charges in 2024, primarily related to professional services costs.

Equity Method Investments

The Company has various investments accounted for using the equity method. Under the equity method of accounting, the Company records its proportionate share of the net income or loss of each equity method investee, with a corresponding change to the carrying value of the investment. The carrying value of the investment is also adjusted for any dividends received and the effect of foreign exchange. The Company records its proportionate share of net income or loss within the Other operating (income) expense, net line on the consolidated statement of net income. The carrying value of the investments are recorded within the Investments in and advances to affiliates line on the consolidated balance sheet.

The Company’s primary equity method investments include partial ownership in Grand Foods Holding, an entity that operates and manages McDonald's business in mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau, and partial ownership in McDonald’s Japan Holdings Co., Ltd, an entity that operates and manages McDonald’s business in Japan. The Company has granted these entities the right to operate the McDonald's business as part of a Master Franchise Agreement. Revenue related to these agreements are accounted for in a manner consistent with the Company’s other franchise arrangements.

The following table summarizes the amounts related to the Company’s primary equity method investees during the periods presented.

			June 30, 2024																		December 31, 2023
In Millions			Percentage Ownership						Fair Value (Level 1)						Carrying Amount						Percentage Ownership						Fair Value (Level 1)						Carrying Amount
Grand Foods Holding			48		%				N/A						$	2,109					20		%				N/A						$	238
McDonald's Japan Holdings Co., Ltd			35		%				$	1,851					$	547					35		%				$	2,034					$	597

On January 30, 2024, the Company acquired an additional 28% ownership stake in Grand Foods Holding from the global investment firm Carlyle in exchange for $1.8 billion in cash. The acquisition increased the Company's equity ownership to 48%, but did not result in control of the entity. As such, the Company remains a minority partner and will continue to account for the investment under the equity method.

As of June 30, 2024, the aggregate carrying amount of the Company's investments in these equity method investees exceeded its proportionate share of the net assets of these equity method investees by $1.5 billion. This difference is not amortized. Management has concluded that there are no indicators of impairment related to these investments.

The following table summarizes the amounts recorded related to the Company's primary equity method investments during the six months ended June 30, 2024 and June 30, 2023, respectively.

			Six Months Ended June 30,
In Millions			2024						2023
Revenue			$	260					$	235
Equity in Earnings			$	66					$	50
Accounts Receivable			$	135					$	137
Dividends Received			$	13					$	14

Income Taxes

The effective income tax rate was 20.9% and 18.0% for the quarters ended 2024 and 2023, respectively, and 20.4% and 19.1% for the six months ended 2024 and 2023, respectively. The effective tax rate for both periods of 2023 reflected an income tax benefit of $55 million related to the remeasurement of a deferred tax liability.

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 valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability on the measurement date and are defined as follows:

• Level 1 – inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices (unadjusted) for an identical asset or liability in an active market.

• Level 2 – inputs to the valuation methodology include quoted prices for a similar asset or liability in an active market or model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

• Level 3 – inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement of the asset or liability.

There were no significant changes to the valuation techniques used to measure fair value as described in the Company's December 31, 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

At June 30, 2024, the fair value of the Company’s debt obligations was estimated at $36.4 billion, compared to a carrying amount of $38.5 billion. The fair value of debt obligations is based upon quoted market prices, classified as 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

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 June 30, 2024, the carrying amount of fixed-rate debt that was effectively converted was an equivalent notional amount of $763 million, which included a decrease of $58 million of cumulative hedging adjustments. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company recognized a $4 million gain on the fair value of interest rate swaps, and a corresponding loss 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 June 30, 2024, the Company had derivatives outstanding with an equivalent notional amount of $2.2 billion that hedged a portion of forecasted foreign currency denominated cash flows.

Based on market conditions at June 30, 2024, the $33 million in cumulative cash flow hedging gains, after tax, is not expected to have a significant effect on the Company's earnings over the next 12 months.

Net Investment Hedges

The Company uses foreign currency denominated debt (third-party and intercompany) and 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 June 30, 2024, $13.6 billion of the Company's third-party foreign currency denominated debt, $539 million of the Company's intercompany foreign currency denominated debt and $1.7 billion of foreign currency derivatives were designated to hedge investments in certain foreign subsidiaries and affiliates.

Undesignated Hedges

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. The Company may also use certain investments to hedge changes in these liabilities. Changes in the fair value of these derivatives or investments are recorded in Selling, general & administrative expenses together with the changes in the supplemental benefit plan liabilities. In addition, the Company uses foreign currency forwards to mitigate the change in fair value of certain foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities. The changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recognized in Nonoperating (income) expense, net, along with the currency gain or loss from the hedged balance sheet position.

Credit Risk

The Company is exposed to credit-related losses in the event of non-performance by its derivative counterparties. The Company did not have significant exposure to any individual counterparty at June 30, 2024 and has master agreements that contain netting arrangements. For financial reporting purposes, the Company presents gross derivative balances in its financial statements and supplementary data, including for counterparties subject to netting arrangements. Some of these agreements also require each party to post collateral if credit ratings fall below, or aggregate exposures exceed, certain contractual limits. At June 30, 2024, the Company was required to post $61 million of collateral due to the negative fair value of certain derivative positions. The Company's counterparties were not required to post collateral on any derivative position, other than on certain hedges of the Company’s supplemental benefit plan liabilities where the counterparties were required to post collateral on their liability positions.

Subsequent Events

The Company evaluated subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. On July 2, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of Alonyal Limited, which owns and operates 228 McDonald’s restaurants in Israel. As a result of this acquisition, McDonald’s will now consolidate the financial statements of Alonyal Limited into its results. Revenues from these restaurants will now be reflected as Company-owned and operated sales, rather than royalties charged to the former developmental licensee partner based on a percentage of sales being recorded within Franchised revenue. The Company will continue to report results from this market within the International Developmental Licensed Markets & Corporate segment. The Company is currently in the process of accounting for this transaction and expects to complete its preliminary allocation of the purchase consideration to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed by the end of the third quarter of 2024. There were no other subsequent events that required recognition or disclosure.
