With a market capitalization of $45.27B and an annual revenue of $11.93B, the firm demonstrates significant scale in the quick-service dining landscape.

财务健康
The company reported a trailing twelve-month revenue of $11.93B, net income of $1.54B, and EBITDA of $2.38B, revealing a cost structure where operating expenses consume approximately 84.8% of total revenue before interest and taxes. Free cash flow stands at $1.01B, which provides the firm with robust financial flexibility to fund capital expenditures, debt repayment, or strategic acquisitions without relying on external financing. The gross margin is 40.1%, indicating strong pricing power and efficient food cost management relative to sales volume. Operating margin stands at 15.2%, while profit margin is 12.9%, reflecting the impact of operating leverage and non-operating expenses on the final bottom line. The company holds $1.05B in cash against $5.08B in debt, resulting in a debt-to-equity ratio of 179.32%, which suggests a highly leveraged balance sheet where equity is a relatively small portion of the capital structure. Despite the high leverage, the current ratio of 1.24 indicates adequate short-term liquidity, as current assets are sufficient to cover current liabilities with a modest buffer. Return on Equity is 47.4% and Return on Assets is 13.9%, metrics that reveal high management effectiveness in generating returns on shareholder capital and utilizing the asset base efficiently.
估值评估
The trailing twelve-month P/E ratio is 30.04, while the forward P/E is 25.18, implying that the market expects earnings growth that will eventually bring the valuation multiple down from current levels. The price-to-book ratio is 15.78, indicating that the market values the company at a significant premium over its tangible book value, likely due to brand intangibles and growth prospects. The price-to-sales ratio is 3.80, and the EV/EBITDA stands at 20.41, suggesting that valuation is priced conservatively relative to sales but moderately high relative to cash flow generation. The stock has traded between a 52-week low of $29.75 and a 52-week high of $58.42, and the current price sits well below the 52-week high, reflecting recent market volatility or sentiment shifts. With a beta of 1.06, the stock exhibits price volatility that is slightly more sensitive than the broader market, moving 6% more than the market index on average during periods of fluctuation.
Growth & Income
Revenue growth year-over-year is 4.9%, while earnings growth year-over-year is 4.0%, indicating that earnings are growing at a slower pace than revenue, which may suggest that cost increases or margin compression are offsetting revenue expansion. As a non-dividend payer, the company reports a dividend yield of N/A and a payout ratio of 0.0%, meaning that all generated earnings are retained within the business to fund operations and growth initiatives rather than being distributed to shareholders. This reinvestment strategy supports the company's long-term expansion plans and capital allocation discipline in the absence of a dividend program. The overall growth and income profile is characterized by double-digit returns on equity and steady single-digit revenue expansion, with no reliance on dividend income for total shareholder return.
