McDonald’s Corp. said higher menu prices helped lift its U.S. sales, while loosening Covid-19 restrictions overseas helped to boost its international business.

The burger giant said Wednesday that global same-store sales in the quarter ended Sept. 30 increased 10.2% compared with the same period before the pandemic. U.S. same-store sales were up 14.6% compared with the equivalent 2019 period.
