McDonald’s Corp., like many of the customers it serves, is trimming its spending and saving more cash.

McDonald’s said it will cut its ownership in McDonald’s Holdings Co. Japan to at least 35 percent from 49 percent. It said the transaction could take a while because of the low trading volumes of McDonald’s Japan shares.
