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, 2021, (“2021 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. Percentages may not recompute due to rounding.
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 53,000 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-style and pizza food 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 53,000 restaurants, 98% 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 Growth and Good we intend to unlock the growth potential of our Concepts and YUM, drive increased collaboration across our Concepts and geographies and consistently deliver better customer experiences, improved unit economics and higher rates of growth. Key enablers include accelerated use of technology and better leverage of our systemwide scale.
Our Recipe for Growth is based on four key drivers:
• Unrivaled Culture and Talent: Leverage our culture and people capability to fuel brand performance and franchise success
• Unmatched Operating Capability: Recruit and equip the best restaurant operators in the world to deliver great customer experiences
• Relevant, Easy and Distinctive Brands: Innovate and elevate iconic restaurant brands people trust and champion
• Bold Restaurant Development: Drive market and franchise expansion with strong economics and value
Our global citizenship and sustainability strategy, called the Recipe for Good, reflects our priorities for social responsibility, risk management and sustainable stewardship of our people, food and planet.
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 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). Throughout 2021 we had a significant number of restaurants that were temporarily closed including restaurants closed due to government and landlord restrictions as a result of COVID-19. 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
23
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 unit growth.
As of the beginning of the second quarter, as a result of our progress towards exiting Russia and our decision to reclass net profits attributable to Russia from the operating segments in which those profits were earned to Unallocated Other income (see Notes 1 and 8), we have elected to remove all Russia units from our unit count as well as to exclude those units' associated sales from our system sales totals. We removed 1,112 units and 53 units in Russia from our global KFC and Pizza Hut unit counts, respectively. These units were treated similar to permanent store closures for purposes of our same-store sales calculations and thus they were removed from our same-store sales calculations beginning April 1, 2022.
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;
• 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. Company restaurant profit and Company restaurant margin % as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies in the industry.
24
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.
Results of Operations
Summary
All comparisons within this summary are versus the same period a year ago. Such comparisons reflect the impact of removing all Russian units from our unit count and their associated sales from our total system sales as of the beginning of the second quarter.

Additionally:
• During the quarter, 781 gross units were opened resulting in the addition of 463 net-new units for the quarter and 1,091 for the year to date.
◦ Net-new unit additions were offset by the removal of 1,165 Russia units for a total decline in unit count of 702 units versus our unit count at March 31, 2022 and 74 versus our unit count at December 31, 2021.
• Foreign currency translation unfavorably impacted Divisional Operating Profit for the quarter and year to date by $23 million and $37 million, respectively.

(a) Due to their size and volatility, we have reflected as Special Items those refranchising gains and losses that were recorded in connection with our previously announced plans to have at least 98% franchise restaurant ownership by the end of 2018. As such, refranchising gains and losses recorded during 2022 and 2021 as Special Items are directly associated with restaurants that were refranchised prior to the end of 2018.
During the quarters ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we recorded net refranchising gains of less than $1 million and $2 million, respectively, that have been reflected as a Special Item. During both the years to date ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we recorded net refranchising gains of $4 million that have been reflected as a Special Item.
Additionally, we recorded net refranchising gains of $8 million and $5 million during the quarters ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, that have not been reflected as Special Items. During the years to date ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we recorded net refranchising gains of $8 million and $18 million, respectively, that have not been reflected as Special Items. These net gains relate to refranchising of restaurants in 2022 and 2021 that were not part of our aforementioned plans to achieve 98% franchise ownership and that we believe are now more indicative of our expected ongoing refranchising activity.
(b) In the first quarter of 2022, as a result of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, we suspended all investment and restaurant development in Russia. We also suspended all operations of our 70 company-owned KFC restaurants in Russia and began finalizing an agreement to suspend all Pizza Hut operations in Russia, in partnership with our master franchisee. Further, we pledged to redirect any future net profits attributable to Russia to humanitarian efforts. During the second quarter, we completed the transfer of ownership of the Pizza Hut business to a local operator who has initiated the process of re-branding locations to a non-YUM concept. We are also in the process of transferring ownership of our KFC restaurants, operating system and master franchise rights, including the network of franchised restaurants, to a local operator, after which we will have fully exited Russia.
Our GAAP operating results for the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2022, continue to reflect royalty revenues and expenses to support the Russian operations for Pizza Hut prior to the date of transfer and for KFC for the entire quarter and year to date 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 to humanitarian efforts, we have reclassed such net profits from the Division segment results in which they were earned to Corporate and unallocated. Additionally, we have incurred certain expenses related to the transfer of
28
the businesses and other one-time costs related to our exit from Russia which we have recorded within Corporate and unallocated. The resulting net Operating Profit within Corporate and unallocated of $14 million and $21 million for the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2022, respectively, has been reflected as a Special Item as the amounts are not indicative of our ongoing results.
(c) During the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2021, we recorded charges of $2 million and $3 million, respectively, to General and administrative expenses and a credit of $1 million to Other pension (income) expense in both periods related to a resource optimization program initiated in the third quarter of 2020. This program was part of our efforts to optimize our resources, reallocating them toward critical areas of the business that will drive future growth. These critical areas include accelerating our digital, technology and innovation capabilities to deliver a modern, world-class team member and customer experience and improve unit economics. Due to the size and scope of the resource optimization program, these charges have been reflected as Special Items.
(d) During the quarter ended June 30, 2022, the Company redeemed $600 million aggregate principal amount of 7.75% YUM Senior Unsecured Notes due in 2025 (the "2025 Notes"). The redemption amount was equal to 103.875% of the $600 million aggregate principal amount redeemed, reflecting a $23 million "call premium". We recognized the call premium and the write-off of $5 million of unamortized debt issuance costs associated with the 2025 Notes within Interest expense, net.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2021, certain subsidiaries of the Company redeemed $1,050 million aggregate principal amount of 5.25% Subsidiary Senior Unsecured Notes due in 2026 (the "2026 Notes"). The redemption amount was equal to 102.625% of the $1,050 million aggregate principal amount redeemed, reflecting a $28 million "call premium". We recognized the call premium and the write-off of $6 million of unamortized debt issuance costs associated with the 2026 Notes within Interest expense, net.
Due to their collective size and the fact that the amounts are not indicative of our ongoing interest expense, we reflected these charges as Special Items.
(e) Tax (Expense) Benefit on Special Items was determined based upon the impact of the nature, as well as the jurisdiction of the respective individual components within Special Items.
(f) During the quarter ended June 30, 2021, the United Kingdom ("UK") Finance Act 2021 was enacted resulting in an increase in the UK corporate income tax rate from 19% to 25%. As a result, in the quarter ended June 30, 2021, we remeasured the deferred tax assets originally recorded as a Special Item as part of a fourth quarter 2019 intercompany restructuring of intellectual property (“IP”) rights into the UK, which resulted in the recognition of an additional $64 million deferred tax benefit as a Special Item.
(g) In January 2022, the U.S. Treasury published new regulations impacting foreign tax credit utilization beginning in the Company’s 2022 tax year. These regulations make foreign taxes paid to certain countries no longer creditable in the U.S. As a result, we reversed a valuation allowance associated with existing foreign tax credit carryforwards that we now believe will be used to offset these now non-creditable taxes in 2022 and future years. This valuation allowance reversal resulted in a one-time tax benefit of $82 million in the year to date ended June 30, 2022 that was reflected as a Special Item.
(h) Our decision to exit the Russia market is anticipated to result in a reduction in the tax basis of IP rights held in Switzerland due to the expected loss of the associated Russian royalty income associated with such rights going forward. As a result, we remeasured and reassessed the need for a valuation allowance on those deferred tax assets. In addition, we reassessed certain deferred tax liabilities associated with the Russia business given the expectation that the existing basis difference will now reverse by way of sale. This resulted in net tax expense of $71 million that was reflected as a Special Item in the quarter ended June 30, 2022.

Items Impacting Reported Results and Reasonably Likely to Impact Future Results
The following items impacted reported results in 2022 and/or 2021 and/or reasonably likely to impact future results. See also the Detail of Special Items section of this MD&A for other items similarly impacting results.
Russia Invasion of Ukraine
In the first quarter of 2022, as a result of the Russian invasion of Ukraine, we suspended all investment and restaurant development in Russia. We also suspended all operations of our 70 company-owned KFC restaurants in Russia and began finalizing an agreement to suspend all Pizza Hut operations in Russia, in partnership with our master franchisee. Further, we pledged to redirect any future net profits attributable to Russia subsequent to the date of invasion to humanitarian efforts.
32
During the second quarter, we completed the transfer of ownership of the Pizza Hut Russia business to a local operator who has initiated the process of re-branding locations to a non-YUM concept. We are also in the process of transferring ownership of our KFC Russia restaurants, operating system and master franchise rights, including the network of franchised restaurants, to a local operator who will be responsible for re-branding locations to a non-YUM concept. Upon the completion of this process, we will have fully exited from Russia
As of the beginning of the second quarter, we have elected to remove all Russia units from our unit count and their associated sales from our total system sales. We removed 1,112 units and 53 units in Russia from our global KFC and Pizza Hut units counts, respectively. This negatively impacted consolidated YUM and KFC Division year-over-year unit growth by two and four percentage points, respectively. During the quarter ended June 30, 2022, our system sales growth for consolidated YUM and KFC Division was negatively impacted by two and three percentage points, respectively. During the year to date ended June 30, 2022, our system sales growth for consolidated YUM and KFC Division was negatively impacted by one and two percentage points, respectively. Russia units do not impact our same-store sales results for the quarter.
Historically, our Russian business has constituted approximately 3% of our total operating profit and 2% of our total system sales. During the quarter ended June 30, 2022, our Core Operating Profits in Russia declined versus the second quarter of last year, negatively impacting consolidated YUM and KFC Division Core Operating Profit growth by two and four percentage points, respectively. During the year to date ended June 30, 2022, our Core Operating Profits in Russia declined versus the prior year, negatively impacting consolidated YUM and KFC Division Core Operating Profit growth by two and three percentage points, respectively.
See Note 1 for a discussion regarding our net asset base in Russia.
COVID-19
In late 2019, a novel strain of coronavirus, COVID-19, was first detected and in March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic. As a result of COVID-19, governmental authorities around the world implemented measures to reduce the spread of COVID-19, some of which remain in place today. These measures have included and in some instances continue to include restrictions on travel outside the home and other limitations on business and other activities as well as encouraging social distancing. As a result of COVID-19, we and our franchisees have experienced store closures and instances of reduced store-level operations, including reduced operating hours and dining-room closures. The impact on our sales in each of our markets has been dependent on the timing, severity and duration of the outbreak, measures implemented by government authorities to reduce the spread of COVID-19, as well as our reliance on dine-in sales in the market.
As we ended the second quarter of 2022, COVID-19 outbreaks and resulting government restrictions limiting mobility continued to impact sales in a few key markets, primarily in China. Excluding China, our YUM consolidated same-store sales growth was 6%, our KFC Division same-store sales growth was 7% and our Pizza Hut Division same-store sales growth was 1% for the quarter ended June 30, 2022. Excluding China, our YUM consolidated same-store sales growth was 6%, our KFC Division same-store sales growth was 8% and our Pizza Hut Division same-store sales growth was 1% for the year to date ended June 30, 2022.
The COVID-19 situation is ongoing, and its dynamic nature makes it difficult to forecast any impacts on the Company's results for the balance of 2022.
Investment in Devyani
In 2020, we received an approximate 5% minority interest in Devyani International Limited (“Devyani”), an entity that operates KFC and Pizza Hut franchised units in India. The minority interest was received in lieu of cash proceeds upon the refranchising of approximately 60 KFC restaurants in India. At the time of the refranchisings, the fair value of this minority interest was estimated to be approximately $31 million. On August 16, 2021, Devyani executed an initial public offering and subsequently the fair value of this investment became readily determinable. As a result, concurrent with the initial public offering we began recording changes in fair value in Investment (income) expense, net in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and recognized pre-tax investment loss of $14 million and $7 million, in the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2022, respectively.
KFC Division
The KFC Division has 26,521 units, 85% of which are located outside the U.S. Additionally, 99% of the KFC Division units were operated by franchisees as of June 30, 2022.

As discussed in the Introduction and Overview section of this MD&A, all units in Russia, both Company and franchised, were removed from our same-store sales calculations beginning April 1, 2022.
The quarterly and year to date decreases in Company restaurant margin percentage were driven by commodity and wage inflation.

The year to date increase in Corporate and unallocated G&A expense was driven by higher headcount and salaries including personnel associated with our 2021 investments in digital and technology companies, higher meeting costs, higher professional fees and higher travel costs, offset by lower current year expenses related to our annual incentive compensation programs.
Interest expense, net
The quarterly decrease in Interest expense, net was primarily driven by $6 million lower expense in the current year relating to the call premium and unamortized debt issuance costs written-off associated with the redemption of the 2025 Notes (see Note 10) as compared to the call premium and unamortized debt issuance costs written off associated with the redemption of the 2026 Notes (as discussed in our 2021 Form 10-K) in the prior year.
The year to date decrease in Interest expense, net was primarily driven by $12 million of previously unamortized debt issuance costs written-off in the prior year due to the refinancing of our Credit Agreement and $6 million lower expense in the current year relating to the call premium and unamortized debt issuance costs written-off associated with the redemption of the 2025 Notes as compared to the call premium and unamortized debt issuance costs written off associated with the redemption of the 2026 Notes (as discussed in our 2021 Form 10-K) in the prior year.
Consolidated Cash Flows
Net cash provided by operating activities was $522 million in 2022 versus $773 million in 2021. The decrease was largely driven by an increase in incentive compensation payments, timing of spending on advertising and a decrease in Operating profit before Special Items.
Net cash used in investing activities was $64 million in 2022 versus $8 million in 2021. The change was primarily driven by the lapping of our prior year sale of certain mutual fund investments and higher current year capital spending.
Net cash used in financing activities was $586 million in 2022 versus $966 million in 2021. The change was primarily driven by higher net borrowings in 2022, partially offset by higher dividends and share repurchases.
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 have been in excess of $1.3 billion in each of the past three years and we expect that to continue to be the case in 2022. 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. To the extent operating cash flows plus other sources of cash do not cover our anticipated cash needs, we maintain a $1.25 billion Revolving Facility under our Credit Agreement (see Note 10), that was undrawn as of June 30, 2022. We believe that our ongoing cash from operations, cash on hand, which was approximately $400 million at June 30, 2022, 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 2021 Form 10-K regarding our material cash requirements. Due to the ongoing significance of our debt obligations, we are providing the update below.
Debt Instruments
As of June 30, 2022, approximately 94%, including the impact of interest rate swaps, of our $11.6 billion of total debt outstanding, excluding finance leases, is fixed with an effective overall interest rate of approximately 4.3%. We are managing a capital structure which reflects consolidated leverage, net of available cash, in-line with our target of ~5.0x EBITDA, and 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. We have credit ratings of BB+ (Standard & Poor's)/Ba2 (Moody's) with a balance sheet consistent with highly-levered peer restaurant franchise companies.
The following table summarizes the future maturities of our outstanding long-term debt, excluding finance leases and debt issuance costs and discounts, as of June 30, 2022.

New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In March 2020, the FASB issued guidance related to reference rate reform. The pronouncement provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the current guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens related to the expected market transition from LIBOR and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. The guidance was effective upon issuance and generally can be applied to applicable contract modifications through December 31, 2022. We are currently evaluating the impact of the transition from LIBOR to alternative reference rates, including the impact on our interest rate swaps with notional amounts of $1.5 billion expiring in March 2025. These interest rate swaps are designated cash flow hedges. We do not anticipate the impact of adopting this standard will be material to our Financial Statements.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
There were no material changes during the quarter ended June 30, 2022, to the disclosures made in Item 7A of the Company’s 2021 Form 10-K.
