* Information in constant currencies excludes the effect of foreign currency translation on reported results, except for hyperinflationary economies, such as Russia, whose functional currency is the U.S. Dollar. Constant currency results are calculated by translating the current year results at prior year monthly average exchange rates. n/m Not meaningful 1 SUMMARY COMMENTARY Jack M. Greenberg, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer noted, "Earnings per share for the first quarter 2002 were $.31, excluding the charges described below, compared with $.29 for the same period last year. This performance was better than anticipated, due primarily to strong sales in Europe during the last two weeks in March and better than expected U.S. profitability." As previously announced, the Company recorded a $43 million (pre and after tax) non-cash charge in the first quarter, primarily related to asset impairment in Latin America and restaurant closings in Turkey, as a result of economic weakness. Including these charges, earnings per share were $.27 for the quarter before the cumulative effect of adopting SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." To reflect the cumulative effect of this accounting change, the Company recorded a non-cash charge of $99 million after tax ($.07 per share) related to impaired goodwill in the first quarter. The impaired goodwill was primarily in Latin America, where economies have weakened significantly over the last several years. Greenberg also noted, "Europe's performance was strong. In constant currencies, Europe's sales increased 10% and operating income increased 13% for the quarter. Comparable sales increased in France, Germany and the U.K. We are encouraged by these results and look forward to continued strong performance throughout the year. "In the U.S., sales increased 2% for the quarter. U.S. operating income declined 2% for the quarter, due to payments to owner/operators to facilitate a new front counter team service system. Excluding these payments, U.S. operating income increased 4% for the first quarter reflecting higher combined operating margin dollars and lower selling, general and administrative expenses. We expect our restaurant operations improvement process, along with menu and value initiatives, to boost top line sales and help us achieve improved results as the year progresses. "In our Asia/Pacific/Middle East/Africa segment, Australia posted strong results, continuing the momentum begun last fall as a result of its New Tastes Menu introduction. However, the segment continues to be hurt by weak economic conditions and consumer concerns about food safety in Japan, our largest market in the region. McDonald's Japan continues to communicate our safety and quality standards. Sales in this segment declined 2% in constant currencies for the quarter. "We expect 2002 annual earnings per share to improve significantly over 2001 results. Consistent with our previous guidance, this equates to 2002 earnings per share of $1.47-$1.50, excluding the impact of foreign currency translation and the $142 million of charges described above." 2 OPERATING RESULTS The Company operates in the food service industry and primarily operates quick-service restaurant businesses under the McDonald's brand. To capture additional meal occasions, the Company also operates other restaurant concepts under its Partner Brands: Boston Market, Chipotle and Donatos Pizzeria. In addition, McDonald's has a minority ownership in Pret A Manger. In fourth quarter 2001, the Company approved a plan to dispose of its Aroma Cafe business in the U.K. and completed the sale in March 2002. The segments presented in all tables and related discussion reflect the Company's current management structure. Previously, McDonald's restaurant operations in Canada, the Middle East and Africa, as well as the Partner Brands were included in the Other segment. The newly created APMEA segment includes results for McDonald's restaurant operations in Asia/Pacific, the Middle East and Africa, while Canada and the Partner Brands are presented as individual operating segments. In addition, U.S. and Corporate selling, general & administrative expenses reflect a realignment of certain home office departments' responsibilities for all periods presented. Impact of Foreign Currencies on Reported Results While changing foreign currencies affect reported results, McDonald's lessens exposures, where practical, by financing in local currencies, hedging certain foreign-denominated cash flows and by purchasing goods and services in local currencies. Foreign currency translation had a negative impact on reported results for the quarter primarily due to the weaker Euro, Japanese Yen and Brazilian Real. Cumulative Effect of Accounting Change and Asset Impairment Charges Effective January 1, 2002, the Company adopted SFAS No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets," which indicates that goodwill will no longer be amortized but will be subject to annual impairment tests. As a result of the first of required goodwill impairment tests, the Company recorded a non-cash charge of $98.6 million after tax in the first quarter for the cumulative effect of this accounting change. The impaired goodwill was primarily in Argentina, Uruguay and other markets in Latin America and the Middle East, where economies have weakened significantly over the last several years. The Company also recorded $43.0 million of non-cash asset impairment charges in the first quarter, primarily related to the impairment of assets in existing restaurants in Chile and other Latin American markets and the closing of 32 underperforming restaurants in Turkey, as a result of continued economic weakness. 3 Net Income and Diluted Net Income Per Common Share Income before the cumulative effect of the goodwill accounting change declined 7%, while net income, which included the $98.6 million after-tax charge for the cumulative effect of the goodwill accounting change, declined 33% for the quarter. Diluted income per common share before the cumulative effect of the accounting change declined 7% to 27 cents, while diluted net income per common share declined 31% to 20 cents for the quarter. Excluding the $43.0 million of asset impairment charges, income before the cumulative effect of the accounting change increased 4% and diluted income per common share before the cumulative effect of the accounting change increased 7% to 31 cents. Weighted average shares outstanding for the quarter were lower compared with the prior year due to shares repurchased. In addition, outstanding stock options had a less dilutive effect than in the prior year. The Company repurchased 11.9 million shares of its common stock during the quarter for approximately $331 million. Systemwide Sales and Revenues Systemwide sales represent sales by Company-operated, franchised and affiliated restaurants. Total revenues include sales by Company-operated restaurants and fees from restaurants operated by franchisees and affiliates. These fees include rent, service fees and royalties that are based on a percent of sales with specified minimum payments along with initial fees.

* Excluding the effect of foreign currency translation on reported results. n/a Not applicable 4 On a global basis, the increases in sales and revenues for the quarter were primarily due to restaurant expansion, partly offset by negative comparable sales. Foreign currency translation had a negative effect on the growth rates for both Systemwide sales and revenues for the quarter. On a constant currency basis, revenues increased at a higher rate than sales primarily due to significantly lower sales from our affiliate in Japan. Under our affiliate structure, we record a royalty in revenues based on a percentage of Japan's sales, whereas all of Japan's sales are included in Systemwide sales. For this reason, Japan's sales decline had a larger negative impact on Systemwide sales than revenues. U.S. sales increased 2% for the quarter primarily due to expansion. Comparable sales were relatively flat for the quarter. In Europe, expansion and positive comparable sales drove the ten percent constant currency sales increase for the quarter. Strong performances in France, Germany and the U.K. were the primary contributors to the increase. In addition, we are seeing significant improvements in the other markets that were previously impacted by consumer concerns regarding the European beef supply. Constant currency sales results in APMEA declined due to negative comparable sales, partly offset by expansion. APMEA's sales were impacted by negative comparable sales in Japan due to weak economic conditions and consumer concerns regarding food safety, partly offset by expansion in China and strong results in Australia. Although we are proactively communicating our strong safety and quality messages, including the fact that McDonald's Japan does not use Japanese beef, we expect Japan's results in the near term to continue to be negatively affected by these consumer concerns. In Latin America, constant currency sales declined due to negative comparable sales in Argentina and most other markets. We expect the weak economic conditions in many Latin American markets to continue to impact our business in the near term. The sales increase in the Partner Brands was primarily due to strong comparable sales at Chipotle and Boston Market. Combined Operating Margins The following combined operating margin information represents margins for McDonald's restaurant business only and excludes Partner Brands. 5
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Combined operating margins Quarters ended March 31 ------------- ------------- 2002 2001 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dollars in millions ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Company-operated $ 350.3 $ 359.3 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Franchised 715.9 700.2 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Combined operating margins $1,066.2 $1,059.5 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Percent of sales/revenues ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Company-operated 14.4% 15.0% ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Franchised 78.0 78.1 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In constant currencies, combined operating margin dollars increased $30.9 million or 3% for the quarter. The U.S. and Europe segments accounted for about 80% of the combined margin dollars for the quarter in both years. Consolidated food & paper costs and occupancy & other operating expenses increased as a percent of sales for the quarter, while consolidated payroll costs were flat as a percent of sales. The U.S. Company-operated margin percent increased for the quarter, primarily due to the elimination of goodwill amortization and a lower contribution rate to the national co-op for advertising expenses. As a percent of sales, food & paper costs decreased, payroll costs increased and occupancy & other operating expenses decreased. In Europe, Company-operated margins were flat for the quarter. France, Germany and the U.K.'s margins increased for the quarter, however, this was offset by higher food costs in certain other markets. Company-operated margins in APMEA and Latin America decreased primarily due to negative comparable sales and difficult economic conditions in many markets. The decline in the consolidated franchised margin percent reflects higher occupancy costs due to an increased number of leased sites. Our strategy of leasing a higher proportion of new sites over the past few years has reduced initial capital requirements and related interest expense. However, as anticipated, franchised margins as a percent of applicable revenues have been negatively impacted because financing costs implicit in the lease are included in rent expense, which affects these margins. For owned sites, financing costs are reflected in interest expense, which does not affect these margins. 6 Europe's franchised margin percent increased slightly for the quarter primarily due to positive comparable sales and a decrease in the amount of rent relief granted to franchisees compared with the prior year. The franchised margin percent in APMEA increased for the quarter primarily due to a restructuring of our ownership in the Philippines in July 2001. The restructuring resulted in the reclassification of our restaurants and related margins, that were lower than the average for the segment, from franchised to Company-operated. Selling, General & Administrative Expenses Selling, general & administrative expenses decreased 3% for the quarter or 1% in constant currencies. As a result of the global change initiatives introduced in late 2001, the Company expects ongoing annual selling, general & administrative savings of about $100 million beginning in 2002, compared with what otherwise would have been spent.

Equity in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates decreased for the quarter, primarily due to lower earnings from our Japanese affiliate and a weaker Japanese Yen. The team service system payments represent $21.6 million of payments to U.S. owner/operators to facilitate the introduction of a new front counter system. In 2001, other income (expense) included a gain on the sale of real estate in Singapore, partly offset by the write-off of certain technology costs. Operating Income Consolidated operating income for the quarter decreased 8% (6% in constant currencies). Excluding the $43.0 million of asset impairment charges, consolidated operating income was relatively flat in constant currencies due to higher combined operating margin dollars and lower selling, general & administrative expenses, offset by lower other operating income. 7

(3) Includes $15.9 million of asset impairment charges in Turkey. (4) Includes $27.1 million of asset impairment charges. n/a Not applicable n/m Not meaningful U.S. operating income decreased 2% primarily due to the $21.6 million of payments made to U.S. owner/operators, partly offset by higher combined operating margin dollars and lower selling, general & administrative expenses. Europe's operating income increased 13% in constant currencies. Strong results in France, Germany, and the U.K. drove this segment's performance. APMEA's operating income decreased 34% for the quarter in constant currencies due to weak results in Japan, the $15.9 million of asset impairment charges in Turkey and a gain on the sale of real estate in Singapore in the prior year. Australia and China delivered significant growth in operating income for the quarter. Latin America's operating results declined significantly as Argentina and most other markets continued to experience difficult economic conditions. In addition, the segment's reported operating income included $27.1 million of asset impairment charges. The increase in operating income for the Partner Brands was primarily driven by improved results for Chipotle and Boston Market and the elimination of goodwill amortization, partly offset by higher losses for Aroma. 8 INTEREST, NONOPERATING EXPENSE AND INCOME TAXES Interest expense decreased for the quarter primarily due to lower average interest rates, partly offset by higher average debt levels. We expect the percentage decrease in interest expense to moderate throughout the year. Nonoperating expense decreased for the quarter primarily due to higher minority interest expense in 2001 related to the gain on the sale of real estate in Singapore and foreign currency translation gains in 2002 compared with foreign currency translation losses in 2001. The first quarter effective income tax rate was 34.5% compared with 32.0% in 2001. The increase in the effective income tax rate was due to the asset impairment charges that were not tax-affected for financial reporting purposes. We expect the annual 2002 effective tax rate to be approximately 32.5% to 33.0%. FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS Certain forward-looking statements are included in this release.
