Fast food giant McDonald's has reported a 15% rise in third-quarter profits today, boosted by higher margins across Europe.
The world's biggest fast-food chain said profits for the three months ended September 30 spiked to $843.3m, up from $735.4m for the same period a year ago.
World-wide revenues during the quarter rose 10% to $5.88 billion dollars, while global comparable sales were up 5.8%.
Chief executive Jim Skinner said McDonald's had continued to overhaul its menu options and update some of its restaurant locations across the US.
