McDonald's Corp. said late Thursday that it plans to raise its quarterly dividend 15% to $1.16 per share from $1.01.

Corrected: EU says McDonald's, Luxembourg tax deal not illegal
McDonald's avoided having to repay millions of euros in back taxes after EU antitrust regulators said that its tax deal with Luxembourg was not illegal, citing quirks in the Grand Duchy's bilateral tax treaty with the United States. The decision by the European Commission came after a three-year long investigation, part of its crackdown on illegal sweetheart deals between EU governments and multinationals that has resulted in Apple, Starbucks and Fiat paying billions of euros in back taxes. The Commission said McDonald's tax deal was in line with national tax laws and the Luxembourg-U.S. double taxation treaty.

President Trump, like his predecessor in the White House, has accused the EU of unfairly punishing U.S. firms with antitrust and tax cases. While regulators did note loopholes that had allowed a McDonald’s franchising unit to avoid paying taxes on either side of the Atlantic, European Competition Commissioner Margrethe Vestager said the investigation into whether the company benefited from special treatment by an EU member state shows the bloc acts objectively.
