Arcos Dorados plans to open 550 to 600 restaurants and invest USD 1.3 billion to USD 1.5 billion from 2027 through 2030, according to StockTitan on October 1, 2026. Arcos Dorados stock was trading at EUR 6.91 at Lang & Schwarz on October 5, 2026 at 4:07 p.m. CEST, up 9.51 percent versus the prior close of EUR 6.31.

Expansion sets the growth frame

The Investor Day framework also targets mid- to high-single-digit annual revenue growth and high-single- to low-double-digit annual growth in adjusted EBITDA through 2030, as reported by ScanX on October 1, 2026. The plan links restaurant growth with a defined capital program, giving investors a measurable test for execution rather than a broad strategic statement.

Arcos Dorados operates more than 2,500 restaurants across 21 countries and territories and employs more than 100,000 people as of June 30, 2026, according to the filing carried by StockTitan. The scale matters because the planned 550 to 600 openings would extend an already large regional operating network.

Quarterly numbers support the plan

In the second quarter of 2026, revenue reached USD 1.31 billion, up 14.30 percent from the prior-year period, while adjusted EBITDA rose above USD 126.8 million, according to ScanX. Adjusted earnings per share reached USD 0.22 versus a USD 0.15 consensus estimate, a USD 0.07 comparison that shows the latest quarter delivered more than revenue growth alone.

The primary NYSE quote stood at USD 7.80 at 10:17 a.m. ET on October 5, 2026. The USD 6.63 to USD 9.75 52-week range and USD 1.6 billion market capitalization place the euro quote in the middle portion of its annual trading span.
