NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

(Tabular amounts in millions, except per share data)

Note 1 - Financial Statement Presentation

We have prepared our accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (“Financial Statements”) in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. Therefore, we suggest that the accompanying Financial Statements be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (“2025 Form 10-K”).

Yum! Brands, Inc. and its Subsidiaries (collectively referred to herein as the “Company,” “YUM,” “we,” “us” or “our”) franchise or operate a system of over 63,000 restaurants in 155 countries and territories. As of March 31, 2026, 97% of these restaurants were owned and operated by franchisees. The Company’s KFC, Taco Bell and Pizza Hut brands are global leaders of the chicken, Mexican-inspired and pizza categories, respectively. The Habit Burger & Grill is a fast-casual restaurant concept specializing in made-to-order chargrilled burgers, sandwiches and more.

As of March 31, 2026, YUM consisted of four operating segments:

•The KFC Division which includes our worldwide operations of the KFC concept

•The Taco Bell Division which includes our worldwide operations of the Taco Bell concept

•The Pizza Hut Division which includes our worldwide operations of the Pizza Hut concept

•The Habit Burger & Grill Division which includes our worldwide operations of the Habit Burger & Grill concept

In 2025, we began a review of strategic options for the Pizza Hut brand. The objective of the review is to create value for YUM, Pizza Hut and its franchise partners by determining the optimal approach to best capitalize on Pizza Hut's structural advantages — strong brand equity, experienced franchise partners and meaningful scale — in the highly fragmented pizza market. We currently intend to complete this strategic options review in 2026, and there can be no assurance this review will result in any specific outcome or transaction.

YUM's fiscal year begins on January 1 and ends December 31 of each year, with each quarter comprised of three months. The majority of our U.S. subsidiaries and certain international subsidiaries operate on a weekly periodic calendar where the first three quarters of each fiscal year consist of 12 weeks and the fourth quarter consists of 16 weeks in fiscal years with 52 weeks and 17 weeks in fiscal years with 53 weeks. Our remaining international subsidiaries operate on a monthly calendar similar to that on which YUM operates.

Our preparation of the accompanying Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the Financial Statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

The accompanying Financial Statements include all normal and recurring adjustments considered necessary to present fairly, when read in conjunction with our 2025 Form 10-K, the results of the interim periods presented. Our results of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows and changes in shareholders' deficit for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

Our significant interim accounting policies include the recognition of advertising and marketing costs, generally in proportion to revenue, and the recognition of income taxes using an estimated annual effective tax rate.

We have reclassified certain items in the Financial Statements for the prior periods to be comparable with the classification for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported Net Income.

Note 2 - Restaurant Acquisitions

During the first quarter of 2026 and throughout 2025, we completed various restaurant acquisitions from franchisees, the most significant of which was the Taco Bell Southeast U.S. restaurant acquisition referenced below. In each transaction, the acquisition was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. The allocation of the purchase price for each acquisition is based on management's analysis, which may include analysis performed by third party valuation specialists, as of the respective acquisition dates. In completing our purchase price allocations, we continue to obtain information to assist in determining the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed during a one-year measurement period subsequent to the acquisition.

The financial results of all acquired restaurants have been included in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements since the respective dates of the acquisitions, which individually and in the aggregate, did not materially impact our results for the quarters ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, respectively. Pro forma financial information for the periods prior to acquisition is not presented due to the immaterial impact of the restaurant acquisitions on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for both the 2026 and 2025 reporting periods.

Taco Bell Southeast U.S. Restaurant Acquisition

During the fourth quarter of 2025, we completed the acquisition of 128 Taco Bell restaurants across the Southeast U.S. from a franchisee. The acquisition provided YUM with an opportunity to improve and accelerate Taco Bell profitability, expand strategic leadership within the Taco Bell system and unlock significant unit development in the region. The purchase price to be allocated for accounting purposes was $666 million, which consisted of cash in the amount of $667 million, offset by the settlement of a net liability of $1 million related to our preexisting contractual relationship with the franchisee.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2026, we adjusted the preliminary estimate of identifiable net assets acquired (as recorded in the December 31, 2025 quarter of acquisition). The adjustments were not significant and we will continue to obtain information to assist in determining the fair value of net assets acquired during the remaining measurement period.

Note 3 - Earnings Per Common Share (“EPS”)

(a)These unexercised employee stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance share units (“PSUs”) and stock options were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because to do so would have been antidilutive for the periods presented.

Note 4 - Shareholders' Deficit

Under the authority of our Board of Directors, we repurchased shares of our Common Stock during the years to date ended March 31, 2026 and 2025 as indicated below. All amounts exclude applicable transaction fees and excise taxes on share repurchases.

Total	1,174	1,556	$	185	$	228	$	874

In May 2024, our Board of Directors authorized share repurchases of up to $2 billion (excluding applicable transaction fees and excise taxes) of our outstanding Common Stock through December 31, 2026. As of March 31, 2026 we have remaining capacity to repurchase up to $0.9 billion of Common Stock under the May 2024 authorization.

Note 6 - Supplemental Balance Sheet Information

The Company’s receivables are primarily generated from ongoing business relationships with our franchisees as a result of franchise and lease agreements. Trade receivables consisting of royalties from franchisees are generally due within 30 days of the period in which the corresponding sales occur and are classified as Accounts and notes receivable, net in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Reconciliation of Cash and Cash Equivalents for Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows


	3/31/2026		12/31/2025
Cash and cash equivalents as presented in Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets	$	689	$	709
Restricted cash included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets(a)	176		192

(b) Primarily trust accounts related to our self-insurance program.

Note 7 - Income Taxes


	Quarter ended
	2026			2025
Income tax provision	$	84		$	176
Effective tax rate	16.2		%	41.0		%

Our first quarter 2026 effective tax rate was impacted by:

•Favorable impacts from newly effective provisions of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act;

•The continuation of our internal reorganization to consolidate our 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 a result, we recorded a net tax benefit of $22 million primarily resulting from recording a deferred tax asset associated with a step-up in amortizable tax basis in intellectual property rights that were transferred to international subsidiaries;

•A $16 million deferred tax benefit associated with releasing valuation allowances against deferred tax assets in certain foreign jurisdictions; and

•A $13 million unfavorable adjustment to tax expense associated with our decision to exit Russia in 2022.

Our first quarter 2025 effective tax rate was unfavorably impacted by $92 million in tax expense related to establishing a reserve associated with a Mexican subsidiary's ability to utilize certain losses to offset recapture gains.

Note 9 - Reportable Operating Segments

The Company's operating segments maintain separate financial information, and our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), the Company's Chief Executive Officer, evaluates the operating segments' operating results on a regular basis in deciding how to allocate resources among the segments and in assessing segment performance. The CODM evaluates the performance of the Company's segments based on Divisional Operating Profit and is involved in determining and reviewing forecasted Divisional Operating Profit as part of the annual plan process. Throughout the year, the CODM considers forecast to actual results and variances on a monthly and quarterly basis to allocate resources for the segments' operations. The CODM also considers this information in determining how to prioritize capital allocation, including investments in restaurant development, technology and human capital, while maintaining a strong and flexible balance sheet, offering a competitive dividend and returning excess cash to shareholders. Our CODM manages assets on a consolidated basis. Accordingly, segment assets are not reported to our CODM or used in his decisions to allocate resources or assess performance of the segments. Therefore, total segment assets and long-lived assets have not been disclosed. The significant expense categories and amounts presented in the tables below align with the segment-level information that is regularly provided to the CODM.

Note 10 - Pension Benefits

We sponsor qualified and supplemental (non-qualified) noncontributory defined benefit pension plans covering certain full-time salaried and hourly U.S. employees. The most significant of these plans, the YUM Retirement Plan (the “Plan”), is funded. We fund our other U.S. plans as benefits are paid. Our two significant U.S. plans, including the Plan and a supplemental plan, were previously amended such that any salaried employee hired or rehired by YUM after September 30, 2001, is not eligible to participate in those plans. Additionally, these two plans in the U.S. are currently closed to new hourly participants.

The components of net periodic benefit cost associated with our U.S. pension plans are as follows:

The Term Loan A Facility and the Revolving Facility will mature on the earliest of (i) April 26, 2029, (ii) the date that is 91 days prior to the March 15, 2028 maturity of the existing Term Loan B Facility if more than $250 million of such Term Loan B remains outstanding as of such date or (iii) the date that is 91 days prior to the June 1, 2027 maturity of the existing Subsidiary Senior Unsecured Notes if more than $250 million of such Subsidiary Senior Unsecured Notes remain outstanding as of such date. Given the $750 million in Subsidiary Senior Unsecured Notes outstanding at March 31, 2026, the maturity date of the Term Loan A Facility and Revolving Facility will occur less than 12 months from the balance sheet date of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements if the Company has not paid nor refinanced at least $500 million of the Subsidiary Senior Unsecured Notes 91 days prior to June 1, 2027. As such, the outstanding borrowings of the Term Loan A Facility and the Revolving Facility have been classified as Short-term borrowings in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2026.

Details of our Short-term borrowings and Long-term debt as of December 31, 2025 can be found within our 2025 Form 10-K.

Cash paid for interest during the quarters ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, was $107 million and $102 million, respectively.

Note 12 - Derivative Instruments

We use derivative instruments to manage certain of our market risks related to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and deferred compensation liabilities. As a result of the use of derivative instruments, the Company is exposed to risk that the counterparties will fail to meet their contractual obligations. To mitigate the counterparty credit risk, we only enter into contracts with major financial institutions carefully selected based upon their credit ratings and other factors, and continually assess the creditworthiness of counterparties. At March 31, 2026, all of the counterparties to our derivative instruments had investment grade ratings according to the three major ratings agencies. To date, all counterparties have performed in accordance with their contractual obligations.

Foreign Currency Contracts

We utilized foreign currency forward contracts with a U.S. dollar notional amount of approximately $75 million to reduce the foreign currency exposure relating to our net investment in certain Indian rupee functional currency operations during the quarter ended March 31, 2026. These forward contracts are designated as a net investment hedge and the related mark-to-market adjustments are being recorded as a cumulative translation adjustment within AOCI. These foreign currency forward contracts did not have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the quarter ended March 31, 2026.

Interest Rate Swaps

We have utilized interest rate swaps to fix the interest rate on $1.5 billion of borrowings, primarily under our Term Loan B Facility, through March 2028. The interest rate swaps have been designated as a cash flow hedge and to date have been highly effective. The current rate on the swapped portion of the Term Loan B Facility (excluding debt issuance costs) is 5.09%.

Gains or losses on the interest rate swaps are reported as a component of AOCI and reclassified into Interest expense, net in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income in the same period or periods during which the related hedged interest payments affect earnings.

Gains and losses on these interest rate swaps recognized in OCI and reclassifications from AOCI into Net Income were as follows:


	Quarter ended
	Gains/(Losses) Recognized in OCI				(Gains)/Losses Reclassified from AOCI into Net Income
	2026		2025		2026		2025

Interest rate swaps	$	10	$	—	$	(1)	$	(5)

Income tax benefit/(expense)	(3)		—		—		1

As of March 31, 2026, the estimated net gain included in AOCI related to our interest rate swaps that will be reclassified into earnings in the next 12 months is $4 million, based on current Secured Overnight Financing (“SOFR”) interest rates.

Total Return Swaps

We have entered into total return swap derivative contracts, with the objective of reducing our exposure to market-driven changes in certain of the liabilities associated with compensation deferrals into our Executive Income Deferral (“EID”) plan. While these total return swaps represent economic hedges, we have not designated them as hedges for accounting purposes. As a result, the changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recognized immediately in earnings within General and administrative expenses in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income largely offsetting the changes in the associated EID liabilities. The fair value associated with the total return swaps as of both March 31, 2026 and December 31, 2025, was not significant.

See Note 13 for the fair value of our derivative assets and liabilities.

Note 13 - Fair Value Disclosures

As of March 31, 2026, the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, short-term borrowings, accounts payable and borrowings under our Revolving Facility approximated their fair values because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The fair value of our notes receivable, net of allowances, and lease guarantees, less reserves for expected losses, approximates their carrying value. The following table presents the carrying value and estimated fair value of the Company’s debt obligations:


	3/31/2026				12/31/2025
	Carrying Value		Fair Value (Level 2)		Carrying Value		Fair Value (Level 2)

Securitization Notes(a)	$	4,306	$	4,151	$	4,306	$	4,160

YUM Senior Unsecured Notes(b)	4,550		4,478		4,550		4,581

(a) We estimated the fair value of the Securitization Notes using market quotes and calculations. The markets in which the Securitization Notes trade are not considered active markets.

(b) We estimated the fair value of the YUM and Subsidiary Senior Unsecured Notes, Term Loan A Facility and Term Loan B Facility using market quotes and calculations based on market rates.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The fair values of the assets and liabilities of the Company that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis (see Note 12 for discussion regarding derivative instruments) were not significant at March 31, 2026 or December 31, 2025.

Note 14 - Contingencies

Internal Revenue Service Proposed Adjustment

Following an Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) audit for the 2013 to 2015 fiscal years, we were unable to resolve underpayments of tax that the IRS proposed resulting from that audit using the IRS Appeals process, a pre-litigation, alternative dispute resolution tool. The IRS asserts an underpayment of tax of approximately $2.1 billion plus $418 million in penalties for fiscal year 2014. Both amounts are subject to interest, with interest of approximately $2.2 billion accruing through March 31, 2026. Those amounts relate primarily to a series of reorganizations that we undertook in 2014 in connection with the business realignment of our corporate and management reporting structure along brand lines. The IRS asserts that these transactions resulted in taxable distributions of approximately $6.0 billion.

We disagree with the IRS’s position and are contesting that position vigorously. On June 4, 2025, we filed a petition in the United States Tax Court disputing the IRS's position as set forth in a Notice of Deficiency. The IRS filed its Answer on September 12, 2025. The litigation is ongoing.

The Company does not expect resolution of this matter within twelve months and cannot predict with certainty the timing of such resolution. The Company believes that it is more likely than not the Company’s tax position will be sustained; therefore, no reserve is recorded with respect to this matter.

An unfavorable resolution of this matter could have a material, adverse impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in future periods.

Lease Guarantees

As a result of having assigned our interest in obligations under real estate leases as a condition to the refranchising of certain Company-owned restaurants, and guaranteeing certain other leases, we are frequently secondarily liable on lease agreements. These leases have varying terms, the latest of which expires in 2065. As of March 31, 2026, the potential amount of undiscounted payments we could be required to make in the event of non-payment by the primary lessee was approximately $325 million. The present value of these potential payments discounted at our pre-tax cost of debt at March 31, 2026, was approximately $275 million. Our franchisees are the primary lessees under the vast majority of these leases. We generally have cross-default provisions with these franchisees that would put them in default of their franchise agreement in the event of non-payment under the lease. We believe these cross-default provisions significantly reduce the risk that we will be required to make payments under these leases, although such risk may not be reduced in the context of a bankruptcy or other similar restructuring of a large franchisee or group of franchisees. The liability recorded for our expected losses under such leases as of March 31, 2026, was not material.

Legal Proceedings

We are subject to various claims and contingencies related to lawsuits, real estate, environmental and other matters arising in the normal course of business. An accrual is recorded with respect to claims or contingencies for which a loss is determined to be probable and reasonably estimable.

India Regulatory Matter

Yum! Restaurants India Private Limited (“YRIPL”), a YUM subsidiary that operates KFC and Pizza Hut restaurants in India, is the subject of a regulatory enforcement action in India (the “Action”). The Action alleges, among other things, that KFC International Holdings, Inc. and Pizza Hut International failed to satisfy certain conditions imposed by the Secretariat for Industrial Approval in 1993 and 1994 when those companies were granted permission for foreign investment and operation in India. The conditions at issue include an alleged minimum investment commitment and store build requirements as well as limitations on the remittance of fees outside of India.

The Action originated with a complaint and show cause notice filed in 2009 against YRIPL by the Deputy Director of the Directorate of Enforcement (“DOE”) of the Indian Ministry of Finance following an income tax audit for the years 2002 and 2003. The matter was argued at various hearings in 2015, but no order was issued. Following a change in the incumbent official holding the position of Special Director of DOE (the “Special Director”), the matter resumed in 2018 and several additional hearings were conducted.

On January 29, 2020, the Special Director issued an order imposing a penalty on YRIPL and certain former directors of approximately Indian Rupee 11 billion, or approximately $120 million. Of this amount, $115 million relates to the alleged failure to invest a total of $80 million in India within an initial seven-year period. We have been advised by external counsel that the order is flawed and have filed a writ petition with the Delhi High Court, which granted an interim stay of the penalty order on March 5, 2020. In November 2022, YRIPL was notified that an administrative tribunal bench had been constituted to hear an appeal by DOE of certain findings of the January 2020 order, including claims that certain charges had been wrongly dropped and that an insufficient amount of penalty had been imposed. Hearings before an administrative tribunal as well as the Delhi High Court have been continued and rescheduled, and the stay order remains in effect. We deny liability and intend to continue vigorously defending this matter. We do not consider the risk of any significant loss arising from this order to be probable.

Other Matters

We are currently engaged in various other legal proceedings and have certain unresolved claims pending, the ultimate liability for which, if any, cannot be determined at this time. However, based upon consultation with legal counsel, we are of the opinion that such proceedings and claims are not expected to have a material adverse effect, individually or in the aggregate, on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Introduction and Overview

The following Management's Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”), should be read in conjunction with the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (“Financial Statements”), the Forward-Looking Statements and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, (“2025 Form 10-K”). All Note references herein refer to the Notes to the Financial Statements. Tabular amounts are displayed in millions of U.S. dollars except per share and unit count amounts, or as otherwise specifically identified.

Yum! Brands, Inc. and its Subsidiaries (collectively referred to herein as the “Company,” “YUM,” “we,” “us” or “our”) franchise or operate a system of over 63,000 restaurants in 155 countries and territories, primarily under the concepts of KFC, Taco Bell, Pizza Hut and The Habit Burger & Grill (collectively, the “Concepts”). The Company’s KFC, Taco Bell and Pizza Hut brands are global leaders of the chicken, Mexican-inspired and pizza categories, respectively. The Habit Burger & Grill, is a fast-casual restaurant concept specializing in made-to-order chargrilled burgers, sandwiches and more. Of the over 63,000 restaurants, 97% are operated by franchisees.

YUM currently consists of four operating segments:

•The KFC Division which includes our worldwide operations of the KFC concept

•The Taco Bell Division which includes our worldwide operations of the Taco Bell concept

•The Pizza Hut Division which includes our worldwide operations of the Pizza Hut concept

•The Habit Burger & Grill Division which includes our worldwide operations of the Habit Burger & Grill concept

Through our Recipe for Good Growth, our mission is to grow iconic restaurant brands globally that are loved, trusted and connected:

Loved: We grow by delighting customers with craveable food and a distinctive experience.

Trusted: We operate responsibly with consistency and efficiency in our restaurants, across our system and in our communities. This includes a commitment to our priorities for social responsibility, risk management and sustainable stewardship of resources.

Connected: We use our teamwork, technology and global scale to serve every customer, everywhere, anytime.

In 2026 and beyond, we intend to drive the next chapter of growth for YUM by Raising the B.A.R. through three clear priorities that reflect bold aspirations and a commitment to industry-leading performance:

•Battle for the future consumer by staying relentlessly focused on their needs and wants.

•Accelerate restaurant unit economics for our franchisees and maximize performance of every restaurant, serving as a catalyst for new unit development and keeping our franchise system healthy.

•Reach the full potential of Byte by Yum! by effectively operating, innovating and expanding our connected platform built by restaurant operators for restaurant operators to unlock its full potential for our franchise partners and our business.

Key to our success fueling brand performance and franchise success is our unrivaled culture and talent and leading with smart, heart and courage.

We intend to drive long-term growth and shareholder returns primarily through consistent same-store sales growth and new unit development across all of our Concepts. We intend to support this growth and development through a capital and operating structure that:

•Invests capital in a manner consistent with an asset light, franchisor model;

•Allocates G&A in an efficient manner that provides leverage to operating profit growth while at the same time opportunistically investing in strategic growth initiatives;

•Targets a consolidated net leverage ratio that balances shareholder returns, cost of capital and flexibility against various risk factors; and

•Maximizes shareholder return through a combination of paying a competitive dividend and returning excess cash flow through share repurchases.

We intend for this MD&A to provide the reader with information that will assist in understanding our results of operations, including performance metrics that management uses to assess the Company's performance. Throughout this MD&A, we commonly discuss the following performance metrics:

•Same-store sales growth is the estimated percentage change in system sales of all restaurants that have been open and in the YUM system for one year or more, including those temporarily closed. From time-to-time restaurants may be temporarily closed due to remodeling or image enhancement, rebuilding, natural disasters, health epidemic or pandemic, landlord disputes, boycotts, social or civil unrest or other issues. The system sales of restaurants we deem temporarily closed remain in our base for purposes of determining same-store sales growth and the restaurants remain in our unit count (see below). We believe same-store sales growth is useful to investors because our results are heavily dependent on the results of our Concepts' existing store base. Additionally, same-store sales growth is reflective of the strength of our Brands, the effectiveness of our operational and advertising initiatives and local economic and consumer trends.

•Gross unit openings reflects new openings by us and our franchisees. Net new unit growth reflects gross unit openings offset by permanent store closures, by us and our franchisees. To determine whether a restaurant meets the definition of a unit we consider whether the restaurant has operations that are ongoing and independent from another YUM unit, serves the primary product of one of our Concepts, operates under a separate franchise agreement (if operated by a franchisee) and has substantial and sustainable sales. We believe gross unit openings and net new unit growth are useful to investors because we depend on new units for a significant portion of our growth. Additionally, gross unit openings and net new unit growth are generally reflective of the economic returns to us and our franchisees from opening and operating our Concept restaurants.

•System sales and System sales excluding the impacts of foreign currency translation (“FX”) reflect the results of all restaurants regardless of ownership, including Company-owned and franchise restaurants. Sales at franchise restaurants typically generate ongoing franchise and license fees for the Company at a rate of 3% to 6% of sales. Increasingly, customers are paying a fee to a third party to deliver or facilitate the ordering of our Concepts' products. We also include in System sales any portion of the amount customers pay these third parties for which the third party is obligated to pay us a license fee as a percentage of such amount. Franchise restaurant sales and fees paid by customers to third parties to deliver or facilitate the ordering of our Concepts' products are not included in Company sales on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income; however, any resulting franchise and license fees we receive are included in the Company's revenues. We believe System sales growth is useful to investors as a significant indicator of the overall strength of our business as it incorporates our primary revenue drivers, Company and franchise same-store sales as well as net new unit growth.

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 excluding Special Items (as defined below);

•Effective Tax Rate excluding Special Items;

•Core Operating Profit. Core Operating Profit excludes Special Items and FX 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.

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

(a) In 2025, we began a review of strategic options for the Pizza Hut brand. During the quarter ended March 31, 2026, we incurred charges of $37 million 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 $1 million and $7 million during the quarters ended March 31, 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)The below table includes the detail of Special Items Tax (Benefit) Expense:


	Quarter ended
	3/31/2026		3/31/2025
Tax Expense (Benefit) on Special Items (Benefit) Expense - Operating Profit	$	2	$	(7)
Tax Expense - Foreign tax reserve	—		92
Tax (Benefit) - Intra-entity transfers and valuations of intellectual property	(22)		—
Tax Expense - Other Income tax impacts recorded as Special	13		—
Special Items Tax (Benefit) Expense	$	(8)	$	86

Tax Expense (Benefit) on Special Items (Benefit) 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) - Intra-entity transfers and valuations of intellectual property in the quarter ended March 31, 2026, reflects the tax benefit resulting from an internal reorganization to consolidate our 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 business. 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.

Tax Expense - Other Income tax impacts recorded as Special in the quarter ended March 31, 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 ended March 31, 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.

Items Impacting Reported Results and Reasonably Likely to Impact Future Results

The following items impacted reported results in 2026 and/or 2025 and/or are reasonably likely to impact future results. See also the Detail of Special Items in this MD&A for other items impacting results in 2026 or 2025.

Pizza Hut Strategic Options Review

In January 2026, we launched the Hut Forward program that represents a bridge to a longer-term acceleration of the Pizza Hut brand. This program includes alignment on a vibrant marketing plan, modernization of certain technology and franchise agreements and a YUM contribution to marketing support, along with the approval of some targeted closures of underperforming units. The YUM contribution for incremental marketing in the quarter ended March 31, 2026, is being recognized as advertising expense throughout 2026.

Additionally, we incurred certain other costs during the quarter ended March 31, 2026 associated with this strategic review (see Detail of Special Items section of this MD&A) and expect to incur further costs of a currently indeterminate amount as this strategic options review progresses.

KFC Division

The KFC Division has 34,332 units, 90% of which are located outside the U.S. Additionally, 98% of the KFC Division units were operated by franchisees as of March 31, 2026.

Franchise and property revenues

The quarterly increase in Franchise and property revenues, excluding the impacts of foreign currency translation, was driven by unit growth and franchise same-store sales growth of 2%.

G&A

Company sales and Company restaurant margin %

G&A

The quarterly increase in G&A, excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, was driven by the impact of G&A associated with operating restaurants acquired from franchisees.

Operating Profit

Corporate and unallocated G&A

The quarterly increase in Corporate and Unallocated G&A expense was driven by costs associated with the Pizza Hut Strategic Options Review, partially offset by lapping costs associated with our Resource Optimization Program and Brand Headquarters Consolidation.

Unallocated Company restaurant expenses

Unallocated Company restaurant expenses include amortization of reacquired franchise rights. The quarterly increase was driven by the acquisitions of restaurants from franchisees in 2025.

Interest expense, net

The quarterly increase in Interest expense, net was driven by higher outstanding borrowings.

Consolidated Cash Flows

Net cash provided by operating activities was $416 million in 2026 versus $404 million in 2025. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in Operating Profit, partially offset by higher incentive compensation payments, the timing of spending on advertising and higher income tax payments.

Net cash used in investing activities was $80 million in 2026 versus net cash provided by investing activities of $2 million in 2025. The change was primarily driven by lapping maturities of short-term investments in the prior year.

Net cash used in financing activities was $375 million in 2026 versus $443 million in 2025. The change was primarily driven by lower current year share repurchases and higher current year net borrowings.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have historically generated substantial cash flows from our extensive franchise operations, which require a limited YUM investment, and from the operations of our Company-owned stores. Our annual operating cash flows were in excess of $2.0 billion in 2025 and we expect continued strong operating cash flows in 2026. It is our intent to use these operating cash flows to continue to invest in growing our business and pay a competitive dividend, with any remaining excess then returned to shareholders through share repurchases. Subject to market conditions, we expect to maintain our consolidated net leverage ratio at approximately 4.0x Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ("EBITDA") over the medium term by issuing incremental debt as our business grows.

To the extent operating cash flows plus other sources of cash do not cover our anticipated cash needs, we maintain a $1.5 billion Revolving Facility under our Credit Agreement which had $350 million outstanding as of March 31, 2026. Borrowings under our Revolving Facility in 2026 had original maturities of three months or less. We believe that our ongoing cash from operations, cash on hand, which was approximately $700 million at March 31, 2026, and availability under our Revolving Facility will be sufficient to fund our cash requirements over the next twelve months.

There have been no material changes to the disclosures made in Item 7 of the Company's 2025 Form 10-K regarding our material cash requirements. Due to the ongoing significance of our debt obligations, we are providing the update below.

Debt Obligations and Interest Payments

As of March 31, 2026, approximately 96%, including the impact of interest rate swaps, of our $11.5 billion of total debt outstanding, excluding the Revolving Facility balance, finance leases and debt issuance costs and discounts, is fixed with an effective overall interest rate of approximately 4.5%. We target a capital structure which we believe provides an attractive balance between optimized interest rates, duration and flexibility with diversified sources of liquidity and maturities spread over multiple years and as mentioned above, we expect to maintain our net leverage ratio at approximately 4.0x EBITDA over the medium term by issuing incremental debt as our business grows. We have credit ratings of BB+ (Standard & Poor's)/Ba2 (Moody's).

The following table summarizes the future maturities of our outstanding long-term debt, excluding finance leases and debt issuance costs and discounts, as of March 31, 2026.

A Term Loan A Facility that is part of the Credit Agreement and the Revolving Facility will mature on the earliest of (i) April 26, 2029, (ii) the date that is 91 days prior to the March 15, 2028 maturity of the existing Term Loan B Facility if more than $250 million of such Term Loan B Facility remains outstanding as of such date or (iii) the date that is 91 days prior to the June 1, 2027 maturity of the existing Subsidiary Senior Unsecured Notes if more than $250 million of such Subsidiary Senior Unsecured Notes remain outstanding as of such date. Given the $750 million in Subsidiary Senior Unsecured Notes oustanding as of March 31, 2026, the maturity date of the Term Loan A Facility and the Revolving Facility will occur less than 12 months from the balance sheet date of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements if the Company has not paid nor refinanced at least $500 million of the Subsidiary Senior Unsecured Notes 91 days prior to June 1, 2027. As such, the outstanding borrowings of the Term Loan A Facility and the Revolving Facility as of March 31, 2026 have been classified as Short-term borrowings in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2026. We expect to refinance the $750 million of the existing Subsidiary Senior Unsecured Notes before 91 days prior to June 1, 2027, and as such, the table above reflects the April 26, 2029 anticipated repayment date for the Term Loan A Facility and the Revolving Facility.

See Note 11 for details on the Securitization Notes, the Credit Agreement, Revolving Facility, Subsidiary Senior Unsecured Notes and YUM Senior Unsecured Notes.

New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2024-03, Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses (Subtopic 220-40), which requires new financial statement disclosures disaggregating prescribed expense categories within relevant income statement expense captions. The standard is effective for the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2027, and subsequent interim periods, with early adoption permitted. The amendments should be applied prospectively; however, retrospective application is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the standard on our disclosures.

In September 2025, the FASB issued ASU 2025-06, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other — Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software, which amends certain aspects of the accounting for software costs, including removing software development project stages and requiring companies to capitalize costs when both 1) management authorizes or commits to funding a software project and 2) it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. The standard is effective for the Company in our first quarter of fiscal 2028, with early adoption permitted and can be applied on a prospective, retrospective or modified prospective basis. We are currently evaluating the impact of the standard on our condensed consolidated financial statements.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Shareholders and Board of Directors

Yum! Brands, Inc.:

Results of Review of Interim Financial Information

We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheets of Yum! Brands, Inc. and subsidiaries (YUM) as of March 31, 2026, the related condensed consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, cash flows, and shareholders’ deficit for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, and the related notes (collectively, the consolidated interim financial information). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the consolidated interim financial information for it to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheets of YUM as of December 31, 2025, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, cash flows, and shareholders’ deficit for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 20, 2026, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheets from which it has been derived.

This consolidated interim financial information is the responsibility of YUM’s management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to YUM in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our reviews in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. A review of consolidated interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
