McDonald's (MCD) PT Raised to $365 at UBS

UBS analyst Dennis Geiger raised the price target on McDonald's (NYSE: MCD) to $365.00 (from $350.00) while maintaining a Buy rating.

The analyst commented, "4Q results & commentary highlighted strong global sss supported by traction against strategic initiatives, with underlying momentum expected to continue in '26 despite macro pressures. We expect solid execution on plans will continue, w/ value, marketing and menu innovation likely to further resonate globally w/ customers and support mkt share gains, including in the US. We're encouraged by accelerating new store growth, which should hit 4.6% globally in '26 and is on track for 50K stores by the end of '27 (5%+ '27 net growth), given attractive returns & broad-based brand strength. While our '26 EPS moves modestly lower largely on several below the line items, 4Q results & commentary support increased confidence in the sales trajectory this yr, and our '26 operating profit moves higher. Despite gains YTD, we continue to like the setup for MCD shares in '26 given catalysts to drive mkt share gains & strengthen US sales growth and defensive characteristics that provide earnings stability in a still volatile environment."
