Yum! Brands Reports Third-Quarter Results
Taco Bell U.S. Same-Store Sales Growth +4%; KFC International Unit Growth +9%
Digital Sales Mix Exceeding 50%


Louisville, KY (November 5, 2024) - Yum! Brands, Inc. (NYSE: YUM) today reported results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024. Worldwide system sales, excluding foreign currency translation, grew 1% reflecting 5% unit growth. Third-quarter GAAP operating profit grew 1% and third-quarter core operating profit grew 3%. Third-quarter GAAP EPS was $1.35 and third-quarter EPS excluding Special Items was $1.37. Third-quarter EPS excluding Special Items reflects a $0.14 negative impact from a higher current year tax rate and lower investment income year-over-year.

DAVID GIBBS COMMENTS
David Gibbs, CEO, said “I'm incredibly proud of how our teams have navigated such a complex consumer environment to deliver 3% Core Operating Profit growth this quarter. The strengths of our twin growth engines were evident: Taco Bell U.S. significantly outperformed QSR competition with 4% same-store sales growth, and KFC International grew units an impressive 9% year-over-year. KFC International's unit openings spanned 64 countries this quarter, and year-to-date gross openings are up nearly 150 units year-over-year. While sales have been impacted by pressures relating to geopolitical conflicts and challenged consumer sentiment, our iconic brands which are led by our world-class talent and enabled by Yum!'s unmatched scale and cutting-edge, proprietary tech, are positioned for unstoppable growth."

THIRD-QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS
•Worldwide system sales grew 1%, excluding foreign currency translation, with KFC at 1%, Taco Bell at 5%, and Pizza Hut (1)%.
•Unit count increased 5% including 1,029 gross new units in the quarter.
•Robust digital system sales exceeding $8 billion, with digital mix over 50%.
•GAAP operating profit grew 1% and core operating profit grew 3%.
•Foreign currency translation unfavorably impacted divisional operating profit by $3 million.

All comparisons are versus the same period a year ago.

System sales growth figures exclude foreign currency translation ("F/X") and core operating profit growth figures exclude F/X and Special Items. Special Items are not allocated to any segment and therefore only impact worldwide GAAP results. See reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measurements to GAAP Results within this release for further details.

Digital system sales includes all transactions at system restaurants where consumers utilize ordering interaction that is primarily facilitated by automated technology.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measurements to GAAP Results
(amounts in millions, except per share amounts)
(unaudited)
 
In addition to the results provided in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America ("GAAP"), the Company provides the following non-GAAP measurements.

•Diluted Earnings Per Share ("EPS") excluding Special Items (as defined below);
•Effective Tax Rate excluding Special Items;
•Core Operating Profit. Core Operating Profit excludes Special Items and foreign currency translation (“F/X”) and we use Core Operating Profit for the purposes of evaluating performance internally;
•Company restaurant profit and Company restaurant margin as a percentage of sales (as defined below).

These non-GAAP measurements are not intended to replace the presentation of our financial results in accordance with GAAP. Rather, the Company believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP measurements provide additional information to investors to facilitate the comparison of past and present operations.

Special Items are not included in any of our Division segment results as the Company does not believe they are indicative of our ongoing operations due to their size and/or nature. Our chief operating decision maker does not consider the impact of Special Items when assessing segment performance. The Special Items are described in (a) - (d) in the accompanying notes.

Company restaurant profit is defined as Company sales less Company restaurant expenses, both of which appear on the face of our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Company restaurant expenses include those expenses incurred directly by our Company-owned restaurants in generating Company sales, including cost of food and paper, cost of restaurant-level labor, rent, depreciation and amortization of restaurant-level assets and advertising expenses incurred by and on behalf of that Company restaurant. Company restaurant margin as a percentage of sales ("Company restaurant margin %") is defined as Company restaurant profit divided by Company sales. We use Company restaurant profit for the purposes of internally evaluating the performance of our Company-owned restaurants and we believe Company restaurant profit provides useful information to investors as to the profitability of our Company-owned restaurants. In calculating Company restaurant profit, the Company excludes revenues and expenses directly associated with our franchise operations as well as non-restaurant-level costs included in General and administrative expenses, some of which may support Company-owned restaurant operations. The Company also excludes restaurant-level asset impairment and closures expenses, which have historically not been significant, from the determination of Company restaurant profit as such expenses are not believed to be indicative of ongoing operations. Company restaurant profit and Company restaurant margin % as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies in the industry.

Certain non-GAAP measurements are presented excluding the impact of F/X. These amounts are derived by translating current year results at prior year average exchange rates. We believe the elimination of the F/X impact provides better year-to-year comparability without the distortion of foreign currency fluctuations.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Summary of Results, Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets
and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows
(amounts in millions)
(unaudited)

Amounts presented as of and for the quarters and years to date ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 are preliminary.

(a)Due to their size and volatility, we have reflected as Special Items those refranchising gains and losses that were recorded in connection with market-wide refranchisings.

(b)In April 2023, we completed our exit from the Russia market by selling the KFC business in Russia to Smart Service Ltd. Our GAAP operating results presented herein for the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2023, respectively, reflect revenues from and expenses to support the Russian operations for KFC prior to the date of sale, within their historical financial statement line items and operating segments. However, given our decision to exit Russia and our pledge to direct any future net profits attributable to Russia subsequent to the date of invasion of Ukraine to humanitarian efforts, we reclassed such net operating profits or losses from the KFC Division segment results to Unallocated Other income (expense). Additionally, we incurred certain expenses related to the disposition of the business and other one-time costs related to our exit from Russia which we recorded within Corporate and unallocated G&A and Unallocated Franchise and property expenses. The resulting net Operating Profit of $2 million and net Operating Loss of $10 million for the quarter and year to date ended September 30, 2023, respectively, has been reflected as a Special Item.

(c)We recorded charges of $11 million and $57 million during the quarter and year to date ended September 30, 2024, respectively, and $3 million and $13 million during the quarter and year to date ended September 30, 2023, respectively, to General and administrative expenses and charges of $1 million during both the quarter and year to date ended September 30, 2024 to Other (income) expense related to a resource optimization program. This program has allowed us to reallocate significant resources to accelerate our digital, technology and innovation capabilities to deliver a modern, world-class team member and customer experience and improve unit economics. We recently expanded the program to identify further opportunities to optimize the Company’s spending and identify additional, critical areas in which to potentially reallocate resources, both with a goal to enable the acceleration of the Company’s growth rate. Costs incurred to date related to the program primarily include severance associated with positions that have been eliminated or relocated and consultant fees. Due to their scope and size, these charges have been reflected as Special Items.

(d)The below table includes the detail of Special Items Tax Benefit:

Quarter ended Year to date
9/30/24 9/30/23 9/30/24 9/30/23
Tax Benefit on Special Items Operating Profit $ (2) $ —  $ (15) $ (2)
Tax Benefit - Income tax impacts from decision to exit Russia —  (4) —  (12)
Tax Benefit - Other Income tax impacts recorded as Special —  —  (4) (22)
Special Items Tax Benefit $ (2) $ (4) $ (19) $ (36)

Tax Benefit on Special Items Operating Profit was determined by assessing the tax impact of each individual component within Special Items based upon the nature of the item and jurisdictional tax law.

Other Income Tax impacts recorded as Special in the years to date ended September 30, 2024 and 2023 include benefits related to the reversal of reserves due to the favorable resolution of tax audits in foreign jurisdictions. Such reserves were established in prior years related to income tax liabilities and deferred tax assets originally recorded as Special Items as part of intercompany restructurings of intellectual property. Other Income Tax impacts recorded as Special in the year to date ended September 30, 2023 also include the release of valuation allowances associated with a jurisdiction in which a marketwide refranchising event occurred.
