MCD Altman Z-score needs a fuller balance sheet.

TECHi computes a non-financial-company Altman-style score from working capital, retained earnings, EBIT, market value, liabilities, revenue, and assets. It is not a bankruptcy prediction, but it gives pro readers a fast stress screen that most quote pages do not show beside live valuation metrics.

Valuation read

MCD trades at 22.22× trailing earnings.

A trailing P/E in line with the broad market means MCD is being priced like an average earner. The PEG ratio (—) is the cleaner read here — it tells you how much you're paying per unit of growth.

Profitability read

MCD converts 31.7% of revenue into net income.

Net margins above 20% are the hallmark of pricing-power businesses — software, brands, and franchises. Watch for trend, not just level: a falling margin in this band still erodes the multiple.
