Restaurant Brands International (QSR-T) is gaining attention due to its performance within the competitive fast-food industry. Tim Hortons is particularly highlighted for its successful loyalty program, and Burger King is undergoing a significant turnaround, positioning itself well against its main competitor, McDonald's. While challenges such as rising beef and food prices persist, there are optimistic projections for store growth and improved cash flow as costs associated with Burger King's rebranding diminish. Despite some mixed quarterly performances and ongoing concerns about consumer behavior under inflationary pressures, several analysts view QSR as a solid long-term investment with potential for dividend increases and share buybacks. The consensus suggests that the overall valuation of the stock is reasonable, with plans to enhance its international presence and franchise growth.

COMMENT
The US market is much tougher than it is in Canada and their same store sales are much weaker. Very competitive business.
BUY
(Market Call Minute.) It should be relatively economically insensitive. A consumer staple.
DON'T BUY
Growth rate is going to slow as there are only so many locations. A fantastic operation. Very profitable. Just increased coffee prices. Their bottom line will remain extremely solid but you are paying full price. A $35 stock price would be generous.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Apr 2/07. No change.) Even though they raised prices, people will still buy there. A good place to hide. Multiple is lower than it was.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Apr 23/07. Down 2% including dividends.) Rumour is that they are going to increase the cost of coffee. Clients will pay.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Mar 6/07. Up 0.1% including dividends.) One of the best brands in Canada and has executed extremely well. They have the power to pass on pricing increases. A good Buy.
COMMENT
(Market Call Minute.) Not a bad price right now. Quality retailer. Recession resistant. Doesn't think they will make as much headway in the US as they want.
COMMENT
Would characterize this as a good yield play although the dividend is very low. He could see it growing over time.
DON'T BUY
Thinks it will probably do quite well in a slowdown. Their potential growth and their difficulty is in their US holdings. Expensive in the near term relative to the potential. Would consider in the high $20's or the low $30's.
TOP PICK
In this market you need some sort of nice steady blue chips with the cheapest, finest coffee in the world that every Canadian can afford to buy. Very efficiently run. Still has a lot of space to grow in Canada. Good price.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Mar 6/07. Up 5.5%.) Has to be one of the best consumer staples.
HOLD
(Market Call Minute.) Buy on a little further weakness. Sell at $40.
BUY
Long line-ups in the morning are fully valued in the stock. Execution is twofold. 1) Solid menu, which it is and 2) execution in the US is required to give it great growth. Coffee sales in the US are less per store than in Canada. Doesn't think you'll go wrong by owning the stock.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Likes what they're doing in the US. Earnings continue to grow. Relatively low yield, so consider it as a more aggressive stock, but on a long-term basis it is certainly a Hold.
HOLD
(Market Call Minute.) Has done well. More of a defensive security. Probably has a little bit further to go.
