Every year we close 300-400 stores anyway, just relocations Picture Quote #1

And ours is a business that requires discipline and focus Picture Quote #1

McDonald’s is almost 50 years old. For 47 years we had a pretty consistent track record of being able to deliver admirable sales Picture Quote #1

So Europe’s a big driver. And at one point, if the euro hadn’t devalued, they would have been making as much money as the US with half the stores. Returns were higher Picture Quote #1

Some of the analysts were saying, Now you’re a cash cow, there’s no growth at all, pay it all out in dividends, give me it all, you can’t invest wisely Picture Quote #1

The fact of the matter is, most of our orders are not supersized. Less than five per cent are supersized - that’s never mentioned. The whole issue has been supersized itself Picture Quote #1

The markets where we’ve got real good presence are the older, more mature markets like Australia, and Western Europe - where we’ve only got 6,000 stores, compared to the US with 13,000 Picture Quote #1

I talked about 12 to 18 months, and that’s about reaffirming our foundation for sustained growth: getting the discipline back, getting the basics right, getting the customer focus back... so by the end of next year, I hope most of that’s in place Picture Quote #1

But you know the second month I was here I put out a healthy lifestyles directive. The pundits will say it was because we were sued. Well that’s what they say. It was never about that Picture Quote #1

We cover hamburgers, chicken, veggie burgers, salads, we’ve got a pretty broad range. To me, McDonald’s isn’t only about the food. It’s about the prices, it’s about the way we eat Picture Quote #1

And so if your competitors aren’t growing, if there isn’t a competitive reason to grow, and you want focus and discipline to add customers to existing stores, you adjust your strategy Picture Quote #1

Playtime and toys are good for kids, or they wouldn’t buy them. McDonald’s can provide that experience. And having dinner with the family is good for kids Picture Quote #1

You then get into a period a few years ago, where a lot of external factors that we didn’t have anything to do with did hit, and some of them at the same time... devaluations, weak economies, you name it, in various parts of the world Picture Quote #1

You have got to have discipline and focus - on the customer and how you run the business Picture Quote #1

But we had a pretty diversified portfolio of businesses around the world and things tended to offset each other. But one or two years ago, we had a lot of things happening at the same time Picture Quote #1

But I tell you, I would really be interested if there was a partner we could take in, that could put them over here on the side, that would allow us full leverage and access down the road Picture Quote #1

But in terms of the code by which we go to market - it’s not telling kids to supersize, we’re not selling them, generally, products, in the advertising we do to them Picture Quote #1

As I said, I haven’t spent a lot of time thinking about partner brands Picture Quote #1

But, on balance, we seized the marketplace. We’ve got a great infrastructure. And yes it’s struggling in some areas because of some external factors and some internal factors Picture Quote #1

I think this year we’ll open up 900 gross, we’re closing some, so the net count is lower, but the 900 are spread all over the place. Some of the closures are relocations, where you’re moving it to another place in the marketplace Picture Quote #1

I think we have a great track record on being relevant, on identifying consumer trends, needs and wants Picture Quote #1
