“In the United States and Canada, fourth-quarter sales were positively influenced by our breakfasts, which are growing at a faster pace than overall sales,” CEO John Chidsey said in a statement.

“Featured menu offerings and their related promotional campaigns, including the Chicken Fries tie-in with Sponge Bob SquarePants and the Western Whopper sandwich promotion also helped us deliver better than forecasted results,” he said.
