What would MCDONALDS CORP have to report for its valuation to change?
At $242.50, with a 9.0% required return and a 18× earnings multiple in 5 years, earnings per share must grow about 11.0% a year, to $20.73. On that path the next quarter needs diluted EPS near $3.53, against $3.18 in the quarter ended Sep 30, 2025.
Compare buying at the last close now with waiting for results: if the report moves the growth the price requires, the entry price you would accept changes with it.
