McDonald's reported mixed th♏ird-quarter results Tuesday, with revenue and adjusted earnings topping analysts' estimates but net income and sa🌺me-store sales coming in worse than expected.

The fast-food giant registered $6.87 billion in revenue, up from $6.69 billion last year and the $6.81 billion 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:analysts expected, according to consensus estimates compiled by Visible Alpha. McDonald's also posted $2.26 billion in 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:net income, down from last year's $2.32 billion and the $2.30 billion analysts projected.

After stripping out nearly $70 million in charges, McDonald's adjusted net income of $2.32 billion narrowly beat estimates.

The chain also reported a 1.5% decline in 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:same-store sales, with a small bump to U.S. sales and declines internationally, after reporting a 1% drop 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:in the second quarter, when executives said higher prices were driving 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:lower-income customers away. Analysts expected a decline of about 0.6% in c♏omparable sales, with nearly flat sales in the U.S. and lower sales internationally.

The third quarter also saw McDonald's 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:announce the extension of its $5 Meal Deal promotion into December rather than its originally planned summer run. The company 澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果体彩网:said last month that the value meal had been successful in driving sales, especially in bringing lower-income co♏nsumers ba🦂ck to McDonald's.

Shares had fallen in premarket trading after thꦅe earnings were released but were little change in late-morning trading.
