Restaurant Brands International Inc. (CA7481931070) closed at USD 72.89 on the NYSE on September 18, 2026, down 0.55 percent from the prior close. The latest reported market value places the company near USD 25.42 billion, while the 52-week range runs from USD 62.89 to USD 81.96.

Analysts see further upside

According to MarketBeat on September 22, 2026, 23 analysts assign the shares a consensus rating of Moderate Buy, with 16 buy ratings and 7 hold ratings. The average 12-month price target is USD 84.04, which is USD 11.15 above the September 18 closing price.

The same September 22, 2026 analyst overview lists a highest target of USD 92.00 and a lowest target of USD 79.00. The target spread shows that the consensus is positive, but the research view is not uniform on the extent of the potential recovery.

Restaurant sales provide a key test

Restaurant Brands International's Burger King US comparable sales rose 8.5 percent year over year in the second quarter of 2026, according to Yahoo Finance on September 22, 2026. That operating comparison is materially stronger than a flat sales trend and gives the stock's valuation a concrete performance measure.

MarketBeat's September 22, 2026 data show a price-to-earnings ratio of 19.59 and trailing twelve-month earnings per share of USD 3.72. The combination of a 19.59 multiple and the USD 84.04 consensus target makes Burger King's same-store sales and the wider restaurant portfolio central to the next valuation debate.

QSR remains below its yearly high

At USD 72.89 on September 18, 2026, QSR stood USD 9.07 below its 52-week high of USD 81.96 and USD 10.00 above its 52-week low of USD 62.89. The stock therefore remained closer to the upper end of its annual range than to the low, while still trading below the analyst consensus target.
