Check out which companies are making headlines before the bell:
McDonald's–The restaurant chain reported a 1.2 percent global same-store sales increase for January, beating estimates of a 0.2 percent increase.

Hasbro–The toy maker earned $1.12 per share, excluding certain items, for the fourth quarter, ten cents below estimates. Revenue also missed estimates, weighed down by weakness in toys designed for boys.
Green Mountain Coffee–Green Mountain has signed a deal with Krispy Kreme that will bring Krispy Kreme-branded K-Cups to Green Mountain's Keurig brewing system.
Apple–Proxy advisory firm ISS is recommending a "no" vote by shareholders on investor Carl Icahn's share buyback proposal. Icahn had no immediate comment, but his office tells CNBC that Icahn will have a statement before the markets open this morning.

JPMorgan Chase–Societe Generale upgraded the bank's shares to "buy" from "hold", based in large part on the bank's faster pace in resolving outstanding mortgage-related litigation.
