David C. Novak Comments

David C. Novak, Chairman and CEO said, “Yum! Brands is well on its way to delivering full-year EPS growth of at least 20%, with second-quarter EPS growth of 30%. Operating profit grew 188% in China driven by strong sales and margin performance. Just as important, I’m confident we are building momentum behind major initiatives around the world that will sustain double-digit EPS growth in 2015 and beyond.

China Division system sales increased 21% as we opened 104 new restaurants and delivered same-store sales growth of 15%. Restaurant margins were 16.8%, which was 6.2 percentage points above prior year. We are especially pleased with the initial success of our KFC Menu Revamp and excited about our plans balance of year. Overall, we remain on track to open at least 700 new restaurants in China as we further capitalize on the world’s largest and fastest growing consuming class.

Outside of China, we expect to open a record 1,250 new international units this year, further strengthening our leadership position in emerging markets. We also delivered solid sales and profit growth at our KFC division, led by strong international performance. At Taco Bell, we’re very pleased with the initial results of our national breakfast launch and have a strong new product pipeline across all day-parts to drive a strong second half. At Pizza Hut, although second-quarter results were disappointing, we are taking significant actions in our U.S. business to reignite sales and expect to make substantial progress balance of year.

Overall, we have a compelling business model and will continue to invest behind the significant growth opportunities we see around the world. We remain focused on the three keys to driving shareholder value: new-unit development, same-store sales growth and generating high returns on invested capital.”

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 U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) throughout this document, the Company has provided non-GAAP measurements which present operating results in 2014 and 2013 on a basis before Special Items. Special Items presented below relate primarily to U.S. refranchising gains, which are further described in (d) in the accompanying notes.

The Company uses earnings before Special Items as a key performance measure of results of operations for the purpose of evaluating performance internally and Special Items are not included in any of our segment results. This non-GAAP measurement is not intended to replace the presentation of our financial results in accordance with GAAP. Rather, the Company believes that the presentation of earnings before Special Items provides additional information to investors to facilitate the comparison of past and present operations, excluding items in the quarters and years to date ended June 14, 2014 and June 15, 2013 that the Company does not believe are indicative of our ongoing operations due to their size and/or nature.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Summary of Results, Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets
and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows
(amounts in millions)
(unaudited)
(a)			Amounts presented as of and for the quarter and year to date ended June 14, 2014 are preliminary.
(b)			Other (income) expense for the China Division primarily consists of equity income (loss) from investments in unconsolidated affiliates.
(c)			Previously, our reporting segments consisted of YUM Restaurants International, the United States, China and India. In the first quarter of 2014, we combined our YUM Restaurants International and United States reporting segments and began reporting this information by three new reporting segments: KFC Division, Pizza Hut Division and Taco Bell Division. China and India remain separate reporting segments. This new structure is designed to drive greater global brand focus, enabling us to more effectively share know-how and accelerate growth. While our consolidated results have not been impacted, we have restated our comparable segment information for consistent presentation.
(d)			During the quarters ended June 14, 2014 and June 15, 2013, we recorded gains of $1 million and $28 million, respectively, related to refranchising in the U.S. During the years to date ended June 14, 2014 and June 15, 2013, we recorded gains of $3 million and $45 million, respectively, related to refranchising in the U.S. The 2013 gains primarily related to Taco Bell. We have traditionally not allocated refranchising (gains) losses for segment reporting purposes. Additionally, U.S. refranchising (gains) losses have been reflected as Special Items for certain performance measures (see accompanying reconciliation to reported results) consistent with our historical presentation.
