Yum! Brands Reports Second-Quarter Results
Taco Bell Same-Store Sales Growth 7%; KFC Unit Growth 7%;
Digital System Sales Mix Excluding Pizza Hut Exceeded 60%
Louisville, KY (July 30, 2026) - Yum! Brands, Inc. (NYSE: YUM) today reported results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026. Second-quarter GAAP EPS was $3.08 and second-quarter EPS excluding Special Items was $1.62.
CHRIS TURNER COMMENTS
Chris Turner, CEO, said “We delivered another strong quarter with robust same-store sales and restaurant-level margin performance. We also reached separate definitive agreements with two exceptional buyers for the Pizza Hut business, bringing our strategic review process to a close. Yum! will enter its next chapter as a more focused organization positioned to accelerate growth. As we continue to Raise the B.A.R., our priorities are to deepen consumer relevance, improve restaurant economics, bring the benefits of Byte by Yum! to more of our system and allocate capital in a way that creates sustained shareholder value. Our message is straightforward: Yum! is built for dependable growth, disciplined execution and long-term value creation.”
STRATEGIC ANNOUNCEMENTS
•On June 15th, KFC launched its next chapter on the journey to set the standard for the modern chicken QSR. This involves a refreshed brand identity and a menu revamp that is centered around boneless chicken, beverages and crave-worthy sauces. KFC is bringing consumers a more flavor-forward experience built to unlock flavor exploration, personalization and craveability while giving fans more ways to customize to make the menu their own. KFC's aspiration is to have core elements of its strategy live across its Top 20 markets by the end of 2027.
•On June 16th, Yum! entered into two definitive agreements to sell Pizza Hut. Pizza Hut, excluding Mainland China, will be acquired by LongRange Capital, a private equity firm with a consumer-centric and operationally oriented approach, and Pizza Hut in Mainland China will be acquired by Yum China, which will remain Yum!'s master franchisee for KFC and Taco Bell in Mainland China. The sale provides the strongest path to maximize shareholder value while providing Pizza Hut an ownership structure tailored to its distinct markets, competitive strengths and long-term priorities.
SECOND-QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS
•Worldwide system sales grew 5%, excluding foreign currency translation.
•Unit count increased 5% including 1,053 gross new units in the quarter.
•GAAP Operating Profit grew 5% and Core Operating Profit grew 5%.
•Foreign currency translation favorably impacted divisional operating profit by $16 million.
•Excluding Pizza Hut, digital system sales approached $9 billion, with digital mix exceeding 60%.
•Excluding Pizza Hut, system sales grew 7% excluding foreign currency translation, unit count grew 6%, same-store sales grew 4% and Core Operating Profit grew 8%.

This announcement may contain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. We intend all forward-looking statements to be covered by the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements generally can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts and by the use of forward-looking words such as “expect,” “expectation,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “may,” “could,” “intend,” “belief,” “plan,” “estimate,” “target,” “predict,” “likely,” “seek,” “project,” “model,” “ongoing,” “will,” “should,” “forecast,” “outlook” or similar terminology. These statements are based on and reflect our current expectations, estimates, assumptions and/ or projections, our perception of historical trends and current conditions, as well as other factors that we believe are appropriate and reasonable under the circumstances. Forward-looking statements are neither predictions nor guarantees of future events, circumstances or performance and are inherently subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated by those statements. There can be no assurance that our expectations, estimates, assumptions and/or projections, including with respect to the future earnings and performance or capital structure of Yum!

Numerous factors could cause our actual results and events to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements, including, without limitation: food safety and food- or beverage-borne illness concerns, including the impact of the July 2026 cyclospora outbreak; the impact of such outbreak on sales and pace of recovery; adverse impacts of public health conditions or other catastrophic or unforeseen events; the success and financial stability of our concepts’ franchisees; the success of our development strategy; anticipated benefits from past or potential future acquisitions, investments, other strategic transactions or initiatives, or our portfolio business model; the possibility that the sale of the Pizza Hut business will not close within the anticipated timeframe, or at all, or that we may not be able to realize the anticipated benefits of the sale of the Pizza Hut business; our significant exposure to the Chinese market; our global operations and related exposure to geopolitical instability, including the expansion or threatened expansion of restrictive trade policies and increasing anti-American sentiment; foreign currency risks and foreign exchange controls; our ability to protect the integrity or availability of IT systems or the security of confidential information and other cybersecurity risks; compliance with data privacy, data protection and emerging technology legal requirements; our ability to successfully and securely implement technology initiatives, including utilization of artificial intelligence; our increasing dependence on digital commerce and delivery platforms; the impact of social media; our ability to protect our trademarks or other intellectual property; shortages or interruptions in the availability and the delivery of food, equipment and other supplies; the loss of key personnel or failure to successfully transition senior management, labor shortages and increased labor costs, including as a result of state and local legislation related to wages and working conditions; changes in food prices and other operating costs; our corporate reputation, the value and perception of our brands and changes in consumer preferences such as wellness trends; evolving expectations and requirements with respect to social and environmental sustainability matters; adverse effects of severe weather and climate change; pending or future litigation and legal claims or proceedings; changes in, or non-compliance with, legal requirements; tax matters, including changes in tax rates or laws, impositions of new taxes, tax implications of our restructurings, or disagreements with taxing authorities; changes in consumer discretionary spending and macroeconomic conditions, including inflationary pressures and interest rate conditions; competition within the retail food industry; and risks relating to our level of indebtedness. In addition, other risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently believe to be immaterial could affect the accuracy of any such forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements should be evaluated with the understanding of their inherent uncertainty. The forward-looking statements included in this announcement are only made as of the date of this announcement and we disclaim any obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement to reflect subsequent events or circumstances.
You should consult our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (including the information set forth under the captions “Risk Factors” and “Forward-Looking Statements” in our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q) for additional detail about factors that could affect our financial and other results.

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;
•Net Income, excluding Special Items;
•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) - (e) 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. Further, while we generally include depreciation and amortization of restaurant-level assets within Divisional Company restaurant expenses used to derive Divisional Company restaurant profit, we record amortization of reacquired franchise rights arising from acquisition accounting within Corporate and Unallocated Company restaurant expenses as such amortization is not believed to be indicative of ongoing Divisional results as well as to enhance the comparability of acquired stores' margins with those of existing restaurants. 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.

Amounts presented as of and for the quarters and years to date ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 are preliminary.
Certain General and administrative expenses allocations between KFC Division and Corporate and Unallocated for the prior periods have been restated to be comparable with the allocations for the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2026.
We have classified certain assets and liabilities as held for sale at June 30, 2026 given the definitive agreements to sell Pizza Hut that were entered into during the quarter ended June 30, 2026.
(a)In 2025, we began a review of strategic options for the Pizza Hut brand. During the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2026, we recorded charges of approximately $44 million and $81 million, respectively, to Corporate and unallocated General and administrative expenses, which primarily included third-party advising costs associated with this strategic options review. Given the significance of the costs expected to be incurred through the course of this strategic options review, we have reflected such amounts as Special Items.
(b)In 2025, we decided to designate two brand headquarters in the U.S., located in Plano, Texas and Irvine, California, to foster greater collaboration among brands and employees. This involved relocating the KFC U.S. corporate office to the KFC Global headquarters and requiring the majority of our U.S.-based remote employees to relocate to an appropriate headquarter office. We also decided to relocate our YUM Corporate headquarters to a new space in Louisville, Kentucky and accordingly, donated our existing space. Costs incurred to date primarily include severance for the employees who chose not to relocate and consultant fees. As a result of these decisions, we recorded charges of approximately $10 million during the quarter ended June 30, 2025, and approximately $1 million and $17 million for the years to date ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, to Corporate and unallocated General and administrative expenses. Due to their scope and size, these charges have been reflected as Special Items.
(c)During the quarter ended March 31, 2026, we received approximately $44 million, net of legal expenses, related to a credit card interchange fee litigation settlement in which we were a plaintiff. This settlement was recorded to Unallocated Other (income) expense. Due to the nature and size of the settlement, including the years to which the litigation related, it has been reflected as a Special Item within Other income.
(d)On January 8, 2025, we terminated our franchise agreements with franchisee IS Gida A.S. (IS Gida), the owner and operator of KFC and Pizza Hut restaurants in Turkey and a subsidiary of IS Holding A.S. (IS Holding), after failure by IS Gida to meet our standards. As a result, 283 KFC restaurants and 254 Pizza Hut restaurants in Turkey were closed during the first quarter of 2025. We also re-acquired the master franchise rights in Germany for KFC and Pizza Hut from the owner of IS Holding in December 2024. We recorded charges of $5 million and $7 million during the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2025, respectively, to Corporate and unallocated General and administrative expenses consisting primarily of severance costs associated with re-acquiring the master franchise rights in Germany. Consistent with prior charges related to the matter, these charges have been reflected as Special Items.

Tax Expense (Benefit) on Special Items Expense - 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.
Tax (Benefit) – Income tax impacts from the planned sale of Pizza Hut in the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2026, reflects a $359 million net deferred tax benefit recorded upon the recognition of certain tax basis in entities expected to be sold. Such recognition was triggered upon entering into definitive agreements during the quarter ended June 30, 2026 to sell Pizza Hut. The Pizza Hut sales are expected to close at significant book gains in the quarter ended September 30, 2026 resulting in the utilization of these deferred tax benefits.
Tax (Benefit) - Intra-entity transfers and valuations of intellectual property in the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2026, reflects tax benefits of $91 million and $113 million, respectively, resulting from an internal reorganization to consolidate the Pizza Hut legal entities and assets into two isolated ownership structures by aligning the legal ownership, simplifying the organizational footprint and consolidating the Pizza Hut domestic and international businesses. As part of this reorganization, certain Pizza Hut intellectual property ("IP") rights from subsidiaries in the U.S. were transferred to international subsidiaries resulting in a step-up in amortizable tax basis of those IP rights. This reorganization began in the fourth quarter of 2025 in connection with our Pizza Hut strategic options review.
Additionally, Intra-entity transfers and valuations of intellectual property in the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2026, includes $12 million of tax expense representing an adjustment to the valuation allowance on tax credits previously granted by local Swiss tax authorities in connection with transferred IP rights in Switzerland. Previously recorded impacts associated with this IP transfer were recorded as Special Items.
Tax Expense - Other Income tax impacts recorded as Special in the year to date ended June 30, 2026, includes a $13 million adjustment to tax expense associated with our decision to exit Russia. Consistent with previously recorded impacts associated with our decision to exit Russia, this adjustment was recorded as a Special Item.
Tax Expense - Foreign tax reserve in the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2025, is associated with a reserve, and the related ongoing foreign exchange and inflationary adjustments, associated with a change in management's judgment around a Mexican subsidiary's ability to utilize losses to offset recapture gains triggered by a historical tax deconsolidation in Mexico. This expense was reflected as a Special Item due to its size and the time elapsed since the years to which the reserve relates.
