Greetings
My name is Thomas Ko, and I am pleased to announce my appointment as CEO of McDonald's Holdings Company (Japan), Ltd.
In 2024, despite the weak yen, high raw material costs, and rising energy, labor, and logistics costs, we focused on the three pillars of "Brand," "Menu and Value," and "Restaurant Development and Digital People" in the final year of our medium-term management plan.
As a result, system-wide sales were 829.1 billion yen, an increase for the ninth consecutive year, operating income was 48.0 billion yen, operating income ratio was 11.8%, and ROE was 13.3%, achieving all the numerical targets of the three-year medium-term management plan announced in 2022. We would like to take this opportunity to thank our shareholders for their understanding and support of our various initiatives. I would like to take this opportunity to express my sincere gratitude.
In 2025, under our new medium-term management plan, we will continue to work as one with our franchisees to achieve sustainable growth rooted in the community in order to remain "The Most Beloved restaurant brand in Japan".
Thank you so much for your exceptional and unwavering support.
