QSR exhibits a stable but mediocre financial health profile with a Piotroski F-Score of 4/9 and no Altman Z-Score provided for distress analysis. The stock is trading at a massive premium to its Graham Number ($24.92) and Intrinsic Value ($18.41), indicating that the current price of $80.03 is driven by market sentiment rather than defensive fundamentals. While the company maintains a strong ROE of 24.01% and a low PEG ratio of 0.94, these are offset by a dangerously high dividend payout ratio of 94.3% and a severe recent collapse in earnings growth (-57.40% YoY).
Key Strengths
Strong Return on Equity (ROE) of 24.01%
Attractive PEG Ratio (0.94) suggesting growth is priced reasonably relative to earnings
Healthy Operating Margin of 26.44%
Consistent revenue growth of 7.40% YoY
Strong analyst consensus with a target price ($83.29) slightly above current market price
Key Risks
Extreme valuation gap between current price ($80.03) and Graham Number ($24.92)
Unsustainable dividend payout ratio of 94.30%
High leverage with a Debt/Equity ratio of 3.04
Severe short-term earnings contraction (-57.40% YoY)
Weak liquidity position with a Quick Ratio of 0.68
