The net income of McDonald's has steadily risen from 2007 to 2011. As shown in its financial report, (see 2011 annual report), in 2007, its net income was $2,395 millions. The following year, its net income increased to $4,313 million, this was followed by a net income of $4,551 in 2009, and then $4,946 million in 2010.

This steady increase in net income shows that the strategies that McDonald's applied following the global crisis were effective and it has been able to maintain if not increasing its market share.
