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, 2018 (“2018 Form 10-K”).

YUM! Brands, Inc. and its Subsidiaries (collectively referred to herein as the “Company,” “YUM,” “we,” “us” or “our”) franchises or operates a system of over 48,000 quick service restaurants in more than 145 countries and territories. At June 30, 2019, 98% of these restaurants were owned and operated by franchisees. The Company’s KFC, Pizza Hut and Taco Bell brands (collectively the “Concepts”) are global leaders of the chicken, pizza and Mexican-style food categories.

As of June 30, 2019, YUM consisted of three operating segments:


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


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


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

YUM's fiscal year begins on January 1 and ends December 31 of each year, with each quarter comprised of three months. Our U.S. subsidiaries and certain international subsidiaries operate on a weekly periodic calendar where the first three quarters of each fiscal year consists 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. For our subsidiaries that operate on this weekly periodic calendar, 2019 will include a 53rd week. 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 2018 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 other items in the Financial Statements for the prior periods to be comparable with the classification for the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2019. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported Net Income.

Note 2 - Lease Accounting

Starting in February 2016 and continuing into 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued standards on the recognition and measurement of leases ("Topic 842"). We adopted these standards beginning with the quarter ended March 31, 2019, using a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of 2019 and have not recast the comparative periods presented in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The standards provide a number of optional practical expedients and policy elections in transition. We elected the ‘package of practical expedients’ under which we did not reassess under the standards our prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. We did not elect the use-of-hindsight or the practical expedient pertaining to land easements. Refer to Note 5 for information regarding the adjustments recorded to our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of the beginning of the quarter ended March 31, 2019 to reflect the adoption of Topic 842. Below is information about the nature of our leases, accounting policies and assumptions subsequent to adopting Topic 842 and other required disclosures.

In certain instances, we lease or sublease certain restaurants to franchisees. Our lessor and sublease portfolio primarily consists of stores that have been leased to franchisees subsequent to refranchising transactions. Our most significant leases with lease and non-lease components are leases with our franchisees that include both the right to use a restaurant as well as a license of the intellectual property associated with our Concepts’ brands. For these leases, which are primarily classified as operating leases, we account for the lease and non-lease components separately. Revenues from rental agreements with franchisees are presented within Franchise and property revenues in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and related expenses (e.g. depreciation and rent expense) are presented within Franchise and property expenses. The impact of adopting Topic 842 on the accounting for our lessor and sublease portfolio was not significant.

We lease land, buildings or both for certain of our restaurants and restaurant support centers worldwide. Rental expense for leased restaurants is presented in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income as Company restaurant expenses and rental expense for restaurant support centers is presented as General and administrative expenses. The length of our lease terms, which vary by country and often include renewal options, are an important factor in determining the appropriate accounting for leases including the initial classification of the lease as finance (referred to as “capital” leases prior to the adoption of Topic 842) or operating as well as the timing of recognition of rent expense over the duration of the lease. We include renewal option periods in determining the term of our leases when failure to renew the lease would impose a penalty on the Company in such an amount that a renewal appears to be reasonably certain at the commencement of the lease. The primary penalty to which we are subject is the economic detriment associated with the existence of leasehold improvements that might be impaired if we choose not to continue the use of the leased property. Our leasing activity for other assets, including equipment, is not significant.

Prior to the adoption of Topic 842 (“Legacy GAAP”) liabilities for future rental payments under operating leases were not recognized on the balance sheet of the Company except when recognizing a liability was necessary to reflect the impact of recognizing rent expense on a straight-line basis. Upon the adoption of Topic 842, right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized upon lease commencement for operating leases based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Such assets and liabilities have historically been recorded for finance leases. Right-of-use assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Subsequent amortization of the right-of-use asset and accretion of the lease liability for an operating lease is recognized as a single lease cost, on a straight-line basis, over the lease term. For finance leases, the right-of-use asset is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the lesser of the useful life of the leased asset or lease term. Interest on each finance lease liability is determined as the amount that results in a constant periodic discount rate on the remaining balance of the liability. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit discount rate, we use our incremental secured borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date, including the lease term and currency, in determining the present value of lease payments for both operating and finance leases. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet; we recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Right-of-use assets are assessed for impairment in accordance with our long-lived asset impairment policy, which is performed annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a restaurant may not be recoverable. We reassess lease classification and remeasure right-of-use assets and lease liabilities when a lease is modified and that modification is not accounted for as a separate new lease or upon certain other events that require reassessment in accordance with Topic 842. The difference between operating lease rental expense recognized in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and cash payments for operating leases is recognized within Other, net within Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Note 5 - Items Affecting Comparability of Net Income, Financial Position and Cash Flows

Refranchising (Gain) Loss

The Refranchising (gain) loss by our Divisional reportable segments is presented below. Given the size and volatility of refranchising initiatives, our chief operating decision maker ("CODM") does not consider the impact of Refranchising (gain) loss when assessing Divisional segment performance. As such, we do not allocate such gains and losses to our Divisional segments for performance reporting purposes.

During the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2019, we sold certain restaurant assets associated with existing franchise restaurants to the franchisee. Additionally, we refranchised 6 restaurants in the first quarter of 2019. Pre-tax proceeds related to these sales totaled $11 million and $25 million for the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2019, respectively. During the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2018, we refranchised 51 restaurants and 195 restaurants, respectively, and received $47 million and $252 million, respectively, in pre-tax proceeds.

A summary of Refranchising (gain) loss is as follows:



	Quarter ended						Year to date

Pizza Hut U.S. Transformation Agreement

In May 2017, we reached an agreement with Pizza Hut U.S. franchisees that will improve brand marketing alignment, accelerate enhancements in operations and technology and that included a permanent commitment to incremental advertising as well as digital and technology contributions by franchisees (the “Transformation Agreement”). In connection with the Transformation Agreement we anticipate investing approximately $90 million from 2017 to 2019 to upgrade restaurant equipment to improve operations, fund improvements in restaurant technology and enhance digital and e-commerce capabilities. As of June 30, 2019, we have invested $82 million since the inception of the agreement.

We have invested $5 million and $13 million in the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $4 million and $11 million in the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2018, respectively, related to the Transformation Agreement. These amounts primarily consisted of capital investments and franchisee incentive payments that were capitalized. Also included are operating investments of $1 million and $2 million in both the quarters and years to date ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Due to their unique and long-term brand-building nature as well as their non-recurring impact on Pizza Hut’s Division results, the financial impact of operating investments that are part of the Transformation Agreement are not being considered by our CODM when assessing segment performance. As such, these operating investments are not being allocated to the Pizza Hut Division operating segment results for performance reporting purposes.

Depreciation on capital investments made as part of the Transformation Agreement is being allocated to Pizza Hut segment results as the expense is recurring and is not expected to significantly impact the comparability of results in any given period. For the same reasons, the amortization related to capitalized franchisee incentive payments is being allocated to Pizza Hut Division operating segment results.

In addition to the investments above, we funded $37.5 million of incremental system advertising from the second half of 2017 through 2018, including $2 million and $5 million we incurred during the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2018, respectively. These advertising amounts were recorded primarily in Franchise and property expenses and were included in the Pizza Hut Division segment operating results.

KFC U.S. Acceleration Agreement

During 2015, we reached an agreement with our KFC U.S. franchisees that gave us control of brand marketing execution as well as an accelerated path to expanded menu offerings, improved assets and enhanced customer experience. In connection with this agreement we are investing approximately $130 million from 2015 through 2019 primarily to fund new back-of-house equipment for franchisees and to provide incentives to accelerate franchisee store remodels. We invested $1 million and $2 million in the quarters ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $2 million and $3 million in the years to date ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. We have invested approximately $125 million since the inception of the agreement.

In addition to the investments above, we funded $60 million of incremental system advertising from 2015 through 2018, including $3 million and $5 million incurred during the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2018, respectively. These advertising amounts were recorded primarily in Franchise and property expenses and were included in the KFC Division segment operating results.

Turkey Acquisition Contingent Consideration

During the quarter ended June 30, 2019 we recorded charges of $8 million and $2 million to Other (income) expense and Interest expense, net, respectively, related to cash payments in excess of our recorded liability to settle contingent consideration associated with our 2013 acquisition of the KFC Turkey and Pizza Hut Turkey businesses. Consistent with prior adjustments to the recorded contingent consideration, our CODM does not consider this charge when assessing segment performance due to the nature of these costs. As such, these costs are not being allocated to any of our segment operating results for performance reporting purposes.

Investment in Grubhub, Inc. ("Grubhub")

On February 7, 2018, certain of our subsidiaries entered into a master services agreement with a subsidiary of Grubhub, the leading online and mobile takeout food-ordering company in the U.S., which is intended to provide dedicated support for the KFC and Taco Bell branded online delivery channels in the U.S. through Grubhub’s online ordering platform, logistics and last-mile support for delivery orders, as well as point-of-sale integration to streamline operations. Concurrently with the master services agreement, one of our subsidiaries entered into an investment agreement with Grubhub to invest $200 million in exchange for approximately 2.8 million shares of Grubhub common stock, subject to customary closing conditions. In April 2018, all necessary regulatory approvals were obtained and the purchase of Grubhub shares was consummated. Shares acquired as part of this purchase are restricted from being transferred until the earlier of the two-year anniversary of closing the investment agreement or 30 days following the termination of our master services agreement with Grubhub. In the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2019 we recognized pre-tax income of $24 million and $4 million, respectively, related to the mark-to-market of these shares, which includes the appreciation in the market price of Grubhub common stock less valuation adjustments related to the transfer restrictions. In the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2018, we recognized pre-tax income of $25 million and $91 million, respectively, which included the appreciation in the market price of Grubhub common stock since entering into the agreement less valuation adjustments related to the transfer restrictions. The $25 million recognized in the quarter ended June 30, 2018 also included the reversal of the valuation adjustment that was established in the first quarter of 2018 regarding the then likelihood of obtaining the necessary regulatory approvals to close the investment agreement. Changes in the fair value of our investment in Grubhub common stock are presented as Investment (income) expense, net within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Impact of Adopting New Lease Standards

As discussed in Note 2, we adopted Topic 842 beginning with the quarter ended March 31, 2019, using a modified retrospective method. Topic 842 was applied to all leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of 2019. As a result of adopting Topic 842, the following adjustments were made to the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of the beginning of the quarter ended March 31, 2019:

Total Shareholders’ Deficit	(7,926		)	(2		)	(7,928		)
Total Liabilities and Shareholders’ Deficit	$	4,130		$	679		$	4,809

We recorded lease liabilities within Accounts payable and other current liabilities and Other liabilities and deferred credits of $83 million and $661 million, respectively, related to the present value of the remaining operating lease payments. These adjustments were partially offset by reductions to Accounts payable and other current liabilities and Other liabilities and deferred credits of $7 million and $56 million, respectively, primarily related to the write offs of liabilities previously recorded to reflect the impact of recognizing rent expense on a straight-line basis when lease payments were escalating under Legacy GAAP. Additionally, lease liabilities recognized upon adoption were offset by the write-off of prepaid rent of $11 million that was recorded under Legacy GAAP resulting in a decrease within Prepaid expenses and other current assets and Other assets of $10 million and $1 million, respectively.

We recorded a corresponding right-of-use asset within Other Assets of $690 million. This right-of-use asset reflected a $2 million impairment charge that would have been recorded before adoption of Topic 842 had the right-of-use asset been recognized under Legacy GAAP. A related increase was recorded in Accumulated deficit.

Note 6 - Other (Income) Expense

Other (income) expense primarily includes settlement of contingent consideration associated with our 2013 acquisition of the KFC Turkey and Pizza Hut Turkey businesses (See Note 5) and net foreign exchange (gains) losses for the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2019. For the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2018, Other (income) expense primarily includes net foreign exchange (gains) losses and store closure and impairment expenses.

Note 7 - Supplemental Balance Sheet Information

Accounts and Notes Receivable, net

The Company’s receivables are primarily generated as a result of 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. Accounts and notes receivable, net also includes receivables generated from advertising cooperatives that we consolidate.



	6/30/2019			12/31/2018
Accounts and notes receivable, gross	$	580		$	592
Allowance for doubtful accounts	(45		)	(31		)
Accounts and notes receivable, net	$	535		$	561

Accumulated depreciation and amortization	(1,135		)	(1,116		)
Property, plant and equipment, net	$	1,193		$	1,237

Assets held-for-sale totaled $24 million as of both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 and are included in Prepaid expenses and other current assets in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

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

(a)	Restricted cash within Prepaid expenses and other current assets reflects Taco Bell Securitization interest reserves and the cash related to advertising cooperatives that we consolidate that can only be used to settle obligations of the respective cooperatives.


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

Note 8 - Income Taxes



	Quarter ended						Year to date
	2019			2018			2019			2018
Income tax provision	$	88		$	36		$	125		$	112
Effective tax rate	23.3		%	9.9		%	18.5		%	12.9		%

Our second quarter and year to date effective tax rate was higher than prior year primarily due to the unfavorable impact of lapping a prior year decrease to the provisional tax expense recorded in the fourth quarter of 2017 associated with the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”), the unfavorable impact of the global intangible low-taxed income provisions of the Tax Act in the current year, and lapping the favorable impact attributable to prior year refranchising transactions. These items were partially offset by lapping $19 million in expense recorded in the prior year to correct an error associated with the tax recorded on a prior year divestiture.

Note 13 - Derivative Instruments

We use derivative instruments to manage certain of our market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.

Interest Rate Swaps

We have entered into interest rate swaps with the objective of reducing our exposure to interest rate risk for a portion of our variable-rate debt interest payments. At both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our interest rate swaps expiring in July 2021 had notional amounts of $1.55 billion and our interest rate swaps expiring in March 2025 had notional amounts of $1.5 billion. These interest rate swaps are designated cash flow hedges as the changes in the future cash flows of the swaps are expected to offset changes in expected future interest payments on the related variable-rate debt. There were no other interest rate swaps outstanding as of June 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018.

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. Through June 30, 2019, the swaps were highly effective cash flow hedges.

Foreign Currency Contracts

We have entered into foreign currency forward and swap contracts with the objective of reducing our exposure to earnings volatility arising from foreign currency fluctuations associated with certain foreign currency denominated intercompany receivables and payables. The notional amount, maturity date, and currency of these contracts match those of the underlying intercompany receivables or payables. Our foreign currency contracts are designated cash flow hedges as the future cash flows of the contracts are expected to offset changes in intercompany receivables and payables due to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.

Gains or losses on the foreign currency contracts are reported as a component of AOCI. Amounts are reclassified from AOCI each quarter to offset foreign currency transaction gains or losses recorded within Other (income) expense when the related intercompany receivables and payables affect earnings due to their functional currency remeasurements. Through June 30, 2019, all foreign currency forward and swap contracts related to intercompany receivables and payables were highly effective cash flow hedges.

As of both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, foreign currency forward and swap contracts outstanding related to intercompany receivables and payables had total notional amounts of $456 million. As of June 30, 2019 these foreign currency forward and swap contracts have durations that expire in 2019 or 2020.

As a result of the use of interest rate swaps and foreign currency contracts, 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 June 30, 2019, all of the counterparties to our interest rate swaps and foreign currency contracts had investment grade ratings according to the three major ratings agencies. To date, all counterparties have performed in accordance with their contractual obligations.

Gains and losses on derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges recognized in OCI and reclassifications from AOCI into Net Income:

As of June 30, 2019, the estimated net gain included in AOCI related to our cash flow hedges that will be reclassified into earnings in the next 12 months is $6 million, based on current LIBOR interest rates.

See Note 14 for the fair value of our derivative assets and liabilities.

Note 14 - Fair Value Disclosures

As of June 30, 2019, the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term investments, 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 notes receivable net of allowances and lease guarantees less subsequent amortization approximates their carrying value. The following table presents the carrying value and estimated fair value of the Company’s debt obligations:



	6/30/2019				12/31/2018
	Carrying Value		Fair Value (Level 2)		Carrying Value		Fair Value (Level 2)

Securitization Notes^(a)	$	2,913	$	3,048	$	2,928	$	2,967

YUM Senior Unsecured Notes^(b)	1,875		1,899		1,875		1,798


(a)	We estimated the fair value of the Securitization Notes by obtaining broker quotes from two separate brokerage firms that are knowledgeable about the Company’s Securitization Notes and, at times, trade these notes. 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 Company has interest rate swaps, foreign currency contracts, an investment in Grubhub common stock and other investments, all of which are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis (See Note 13 for discussion regarding derivative instruments and Note 5 for discussion regarding our investment in Grubhub common stock). The following table presents fair values for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the measurements fall.



			Fair Value

Interest Rate Swaps	Other liabilities and deferred credits	2	69		23

The fair value of the Company’s foreign currency contracts and interest rate swaps were determined based on the present value of expected future cash flows considering the risks involved, including nonperformance risk, and using discount rates appropriate for the duration based on observable inputs. The fair value of the investment in Grubhub common stock was determined primarily based on closing market prices for the shares. The other investments include investments in mutual funds, which are used to offset fluctuations for a portion of our deferred compensation liabilities. The other investments' fair value is determined based on the closing market prices of the respective mutual funds as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Note 15 - Contingencies

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 June 30, 2019, the potential amount of undiscounted payments we could be required to make in the event of non-payment by the primary lessee was approximately $500 million. The present value of these potential payments discounted at our pre-tax cost of debt at June 30, 2019, was approximately $400 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. Accordingly, the liability recorded for our probable exposure under such leases as of June 30, 2019 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.

We are currently engaged in various 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, 2018 (“2018 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. ("Company", “YUM”, "we", "us" or "our") franchises or operates a worldwide system of over 48,000 restaurants in more than 145 countries and territories, primarily under the concepts of KFC, Pizza Hut and Taco Bell (collectively, the "Concepts"). These three Concepts are global leaders of the chicken, pizza and Mexican-style food categories, respectively. Of the over 48,000 restaurants, 98% are operated by franchisees.

YUM currently consists of three reporting segments:


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


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


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

On October 11, 2016, we announced our strategic transformation plans to drive global expansion of our KFC, Pizza Hut and Taco Bell brands (“YUM’s Strategic Transformation Initiatives”) following the separation of our business in China. Major features of the Company’s transformation and growth strategy involve being more focused, franchised and efficient. YUM’s Strategic Transformation Initiatives below represent the continuation of YUM’s transformation of its operating model and capital structure.


•	More Focused. Four growth drivers form the basis of YUM’s strategic plans and repeatable business model to accelerate same-store sales growth and net-new restaurant development at KFC, Pizza Hut and Taco Bell around the world over the long term. The Company is focused on becoming best-in-class in:


•	Building Relevant, Easy and Distinctive Brands, by increasing investment in consumer insights, core product innovation, digital excellence and initiatives that strengthen the quality, convenience and appeal of the customer experience;


•	Developing Unmatched Franchise Operating Capability, strengthening how we equip and recruit the best restaurant operators to deliver great customer experiences, and build and protect our brands;


•	Driving Bold Restaurant Development through partnerships with growth-minded franchisees who can expand and penetrate markets with modern restaurants, strong economics and value; and


•	Growing Unrivaled Culture and Talent to strengthen the customer experience and franchise success with best-in-class people capability and culture.


•	More Franchised. YUM successfully increased franchise restaurant ownership to its 98% target as of the end of 2018.


•	More Efficient. The Company is revamping its financial profile, improving the efficiency of its organization and cost structure globally, by:

•

Reducing annual capital expenditures associated with Company-operated restaurant maintenance and other projects to less than $100 million and funding any additional capital for any new Company units through the refranchising of existing Company units. Capital spending in 2019 net of refranchising proceeds is expected to approximate $125 million as we fund additional strategic investments in technology that we believe will generate faster growth and incremental value for the Company;


•	Lowering General and administrative expenses ("G&A") to 1.7% of system sales in 2019; and


•	Maintaining an optimized capital structure of ~5.0x Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) leverage.

From 2017 through 2019, we intend to return $6.5 - $7.0 billion to shareholders through share repurchases and cash dividends. We intend to fund these shareholder returns through a combination of refranchising proceeds, free cash flow generation and maintenance of our five times EBITDA leverage. Refer to the Liquidity and Capital Resources section of this MD&A for additional details.

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 sales of all restaurants that have been open and in the YUM system for one year or more. In 2019 we are also including in our prior year base the sales of stores that were added as a result of the Telepizza strategic alliance and that have been open for one year or more. See description of the Telepizza strategic alliance within this MD&A.


•	Net new units represents new unit openings, offset by store closures.


•	Company restaurant profit ("Restaurant profit") is defined as Company sales less expenses incurred directly by our Company-owned restaurants in generating Company sales. Company restaurant margin as a percentage of sales is defined as Restaurant profit divided by Company sales.

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:

•

System sales and System sales excluding the impacts of foreign currency translation ("FX"). System sales include 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. Franchise restaurant sales are not included in Company sales on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income; however, the franchise and license fees 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.


•	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.

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.

Certain 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.

For the quarter ended June 30, 2019, GAAP diluted EPS decreased 5% to $0.92 per share, and diluted EPS, excluding Special Items, increased 15% to $0.93 per share. Special Items negatively impacted GAAP diluted EPS comparisons, adding $0.15 per share in the quarter ended June 30, 2018 as opposed to a negative impact of $0.01 per share in the quarter ended June 30, 2019. The change in fair value of our investment in Grubhub Inc. ("Grubhub") added $0.06 per share in diluted EPS for both the quarters ended June 30, 2019 and 2018.

For the year to date ended June 30, 2019 , GAAP diluted EPS decreased 22% to $1.75 per share, and diluted EPS, excluding Special Items, increased 2% to $1.76 per share. Both EPS comparisons were negatively impacted by the year-over-year impact of changes

in the fair value of our investment in Grubhub, which added $0.22 per share in the year to date ended June 30, 2018 as opposed to $0.01 per share in the year to date ended June 30, 2019. The GAAP diluted EPS comparison was also negatively impacted by Special Items which added $0.54 per share in the year to date ended June 30, 2018 as opposed to a negative impact of $0.01 per share in the year to date ended June 30, 2019.

Additionally:


•	Adjusting the prior year base to include units added as a result of our fourth quarter 2018 strategic alliance with Telepizza, system sales growth excluding foreign currency translation would have been 9% and 8% Worldwide and 4% and 3% for the Pizza Hut Division for the quarter and year to date, respectively.


•	We opened 312 and 622 net new units for the quarter and year to date, respectively. On a year-over-year basis, which takes into account the strategic alliance with Telepizza in the fourth quarter of 2018, net new unit growth was 7%.


•	During the quarter, we repurchased 1.9 million shares totaling $196 million at an average price of $104. During the year to date, we repurchased 3.0 million shares totaling $302 million at an average price of $100.


•	Foreign currency translation impacted Divisional Operating Profit unfavorably for the quarter and year to date by $17 million and $36 million, respectively.

(b)

Tax Expense 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. Additionally, during the quarter ended June 30, 2018, we recorded a $19 million increase to our Income tax provision for the correction of an error associated with the tax recorded on a prior year divestiture, the effects of which were previously recorded as a Special Item.

(c)

During the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2018, we recorded $32 million and $16 million decreases, respectively, related to our provisional tax expense recorded in the fourth quarter of 2017 associated with the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 ("Tax Act") that was reported as a Special Item. We also recorded Special Items tax benefits of $8 million and $18 million in the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2018, respectively, related to 2018 U.S. foreign tax credits that became realizable directly as a result of the impact of deemed repatriation tax expense associated with the Tax Act.


(d)	The foreign currency impact on reported Operating Profit is presented in relation only to the immediately preceding year presented. When determining applicable Core Operating Profit growth percentages, the Core Operating Profit for the current year should be compared to the prior year GAAP Operating Profit adjusted only for any prior year Special Items Income (Expense).


(e)	Company sales represents sales from our Company-operated stores as presented on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.


(f)	The foreign currency impact on System sales is presented in relation only to the immediately preceding year presented. When determining applicable System sales growth percentages, the System sales excluding FX for the current year should be compared to the prior year System sales.

Items Impacting Current Quarter and Expected to Impact Future Results

Investment in Grubhub

For the quarters ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 we recognized pre-tax income of $24 million and $25 million, respectively, related to changes in fair value in our investment in Grubhub. For the years to date ended June 30, 2019 and 2018 we recognized pre-tax income of $4 million and $91 million, respectively, related to changes in fair value in our investment in Grubhub. See Note 5 for further discussion of our investment in Grubhub.

Telepizza Strategic Alliance

On December 30, 2018, the Company consummated a strategic alliance with Telepizza Group S.A. (“Telepizza”), the largest non U.S.-based pizza delivery company in the world, to be the master franchisee of Pizza Hut in Latin America and portions of Europe. The key terms of the alliance are set forth below:


•	In Spain and Portugal, Telepizza will continue operating the Telepizza brand and will oversee franchisees operating Pizza Hut branded restaurants


•	In Latin America (excluding Brazil), the Caribbean and Switzerland, Telepizza will progressively convert its existing restaurants to the Pizza Hut brand and oversee franchisees operating Pizza Hut branded restaurants


•	Telepizza will manage supply chain logistics for the entire master franchise territory and will become an authorized supplier of Pizza Hut branded restaurants


•	Across the regions covered by the master franchise agreement, Telepizza will target opening at least 1,300 new units over the next ten years and 2,550 units in total over 20 years

Upon formation of the alliance we added 1,305 Telepizza units to our Pizza Hut Division unit count. In total, approximately 2,300 Pizza Hut and Telepizza units are subject to the master franchise agreement as of June 30, 2019.

Based upon our ongoing and active maintenance of the Pizza Hut intellectual property as well as Telepizza’s active involvement in supply chain management and their role as a master franchisee, both parties are exposed to significant risks and rewards depending on the commercial success of the alliance. As a result, the alliance has been identified as a collaborative arrangement and upon consummation of the alliance no amounts were recorded in our Consolidated Financial Statements (other than insignificant success fees that were paid to third-party advisors). Subsequent to consummation of the deal, for all Pizza Hut restaurants that are part of the alliance, we are receiving a continuing fee of 3.5% of restaurant sales. Likewise, for most Telepizza restaurants that are part of the alliance we are receiving an alliance fee of 3.5% of restaurant sales. These fees are being recorded as Franchise and property revenues within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income when the related sales occur, consistent with our recognition of continuing fees for all other restaurants subject to our franchise agreements. These fees are reduced by a sales-based credit that decreases over time and, potentially, certain incentive payments if development or conversion targets are met. Previously, the existing Pizza Hut restaurants that are now subject to the master franchise agreement with Telepizza generally paid a continuing fee of 6% of restaurant sales consistent with our standard International franchise agreement terms. The impact to Operating Profit for the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2019 as a result of the strategic alliance was not significant. System Sales growth excluding foreign currency for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 was approximately 1 percentage point higher Worldwide and approximately 6 percentage points higher for the Pizza Hut Division as a result of the Telepizza strategic alliance. System Sales growth excluding foreign currency for the year to date ended June 30, 2019 was approximately 1 percentage point higher Worldwide and approximately 5 percentage points higher for the Pizza Hut Division as a result of the Telepizza strategic alliance. Additionally, net new unit growth for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 was approximately 3 percentage points higher Worldwide and approximately 8 percentage points higher for the Pizza Hut Division as a result of the strategic alliance.

KFC United Kingdom ("UK") Supply Availability Issues

On February 14, 2018, we and our franchisees transitioned to a new distributor for the products supplied to our approximately 900 KFCs in the United Kingdom and Ireland (those restaurants accounted for approximately 3% of YUM’s global system sales in the year ended December 31, 2018). In connection with this transition, certain of the restaurants experienced supply availability issues which resulted in store closures or stores operating under a limited menu. Beginning mid-May 2018, all restaurants opened for business, offering their full menus, with advertising beginning at the end of May. For the second quarter of 2018, we estimated that Core Operating Profit growth was negatively impacted by 3 percentage points for our KFC Division and 1 percentage point for YUM as a result of these issues. For the year to date ended June 30, 2018 we estimated that Core Operating Profit was negatively impacted by 4 percentage points for our KFC Division and 2 percentage points for YUM as a result of these issues. We estimated KFC Division's same-store sales growth would have been 3% and YUM's same-store sales growth would have been 2% in the second quarter of 2018 for both the quarter and year to date absent the supply disruption. On a full-year basis in 2018, we estimated the negative impact to Core Operating Profit growth was 2 percentage points for KFC Division and 1 percentage point for YUM, respectively, and the negative impact to same-store sales growth was 50 basis points for KFC Division and 25 basis points for YUM, respectively.

KFC Division

The KFC Division has 23,118 units, 82% of which are located outside the U.S. Additionally, 99% of the KFC Division units were operated by franchisees as of June 30, 2019.

Company sales

The quarterly and year to date decreases in Company sales, excluding the impacts of foreign currency translation, were driven by refranchising.

Franchise and property revenues

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

The year to date increase in Franchise and property revenues, excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, was driven by net new unit growth and franchise same-store sales growth of 1%.

G&A

The quarterly and year to date decreases in G&A, excluding the impacts of foreign currency translation, were driven by the positive impacts of YUM’s Strategic Transformation Initiatives, including reductions in G&A directly attributable to refranchising.

Operating Profit

The quarterly increase in Operating Profit, excluding the impact of foreign currency translation, was driven by profits generated from our ownership of QuikOrder, LLC ("QuikOrder"), same-store sales growth, net new unit growth, lower G&A, and lapping advertising costs in the prior year associated with the Pizza Hut Transformation Agreement (See Note 5), partially offset by higher provisions for past due receivables.

G&A

G&A for the quarter was flat with prior year as the impact of cost inflation was offset by the positive impacts of YUM's Strategic Transformation Initiatives.

The year to date increase in G&A was driven by the unfavorable impact of lapping prior year forfeitures related to share based compensation awards.

Operating Profit

Corporate and unallocated G&A

The decreases in Corporate G&A expenses for the quarter and year to date were driven by current year G&A reductions due to the impact of YUM’s Strategic Transformation Initiatives.

Unallocated Franchise and property expenses

Unallocated Franchise and property expenses reflect charges related to the Pizza Hut U.S. Transformation Agreement and/or the KFC U.S. Acceleration Agreement. See Note 5.

Unallocated Other income (expense)

Unallocated Other income (expense) primarily includes settlement of contingent consideration associated with our 2013 acquisition of the KFC Turkey and Pizza Hut Turkey businesses. See Note 5.

Interest expense, net

The quarterly and year to date increases in Interest expense, net were driven by increased outstanding borrowings.

Consolidated Cash Flows

Net cash provided by operating activities was $461 million in 2019 versus $381 million in 2018. The increase was largely driven by an increase in Operating profit before Special Items, a decrease in income tax payments, and lower compensation payments, partially offset by an increase in interest payments.

Net cash used in investing activities was $52 million in 2019 versus $42 million in 2018. The change was primarily driven by lower refranchising proceeds in the current year, partially offset by the lapping of our prior year investment in Grubhub common stock.

Net cash used in financing activities was $492 million in 2019 versus $1,579 million in 2018. The decrease was primarily driven

by lower share repurchases and lower net debt repayments in the current year.

Consolidated Financial Condition

Our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet was impacted by the adoption of Topic 842 (See Note 2).

Liquidity and Capital Resources

In October 2016, we announced YUM’s Strategic Transformation Initiatives to drive global expansion of the KFC, Pizza Hut and Taco Bell brands following the separation of our China business on October 31, 2016. As part of this transformation we announced our intention to own less than 1,000 stores by the end of 2018, which we achieved in December 2018. Additionally, we announced our intention to improve our efficiency by lowering G&A to 1.7% of system sales. We also intend to reduce capital spending associated with Company-operated restaurant maintenance and other projects to less than $100 million and fund capital for any new units to be operated by the Company through the refranchising of existing company units. Capital spending in 2019 net of refranchising proceeds is expected to approximate $125 million as we fund additional strategic investments in technology that we believe will generate faster growth and incremental value for the Company.

From 2017 through the second quarter of 2019, we returned a cumulative $5.7 billion to shareholders through share repurchases and cash dividends towards our commitment to return between $6.5 and $7.0 billion from 2017 to 2019. We are funding these shareholder returns through a combination of refranchising proceeds, free cash flow generation and maintenance of our five times EBITDA leverage. We generated total gross refranchising proceeds of $2.8 billion in connection with our initiative to increase franchise ownership to 98%, which we achieved in December 2018.

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash on hand, cash generated by operations and our revolving facilities. We have historically generated substantial cash flows from the operations of our Company-owned stores and from our extensive franchise operations, which require a limited YUM investment. Our annual operating cash flows have historically been in excess of $1 billion. Decreases in operating cash flows from the operation of fewer Company-owned stores due to refranchising have been offset, and are expected to continue to be offset, with savings generated from decreased capital investment and G&A required to support company operations. To the extent operating cash flows plus other sources of cash such as refranchising proceeds do not cover our anticipated cash needs, we maintain a $1 billion Revolving Facility under our existing Credit Agreement. As of June 30, 2019, there was approximately $157 million of outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Facility.

Our balance sheet often reflects a working capital deficit, which is not uncommon in our industry and is also historically common for YUM. Our royalty receivables from franchisees are generally due within 30 days of the period in which the related sales occur and Company sales are paid in cash or by credit card (which is quickly converted into cash). Substantial amounts of cash received have historically been either returned to shareholders or invested in new restaurant assets which are non-current in nature. As part of our working capital strategy we negotiate favorable credit terms with vendors and, as a result, our on-hand inventory turns faster than the related short-term liabilities. Accordingly, it is not unusual for current liabilities to exceed current assets. We believe such a deficit has no significant impact on our liquidity or operations.

Debt Instruments

As of June 30, 2019, our Long-term debt is comprised primarily of borrowings under our Securitization Notes, the Credit Agreement, Subsidiary Senior Unsecured Notes, YUM Senior Unsecured Notes and Revolving Facility. See Note 12 for additional details. The following table summarizes the future maturities of our outstanding long-term debt, excluding finance leases, as of June 30, 2019.

New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In June 2016, the FASB issued a standard that requires measurement and recognition of expected versus incurred credit losses for financial assets held. The standard is effective for the Company in our first quarter of fiscal 2020. We do not anticipate the impact of adopting this standard will be material to our 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 sheet of YUM! Brands, Inc. and Subsidiaries (YUM) as of June 30, 2019, the related condensed consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income and shareholders’ deficit for the quarter and year-to-date periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, the related condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the year-to-date periods ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, 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 sheet of YUM as of December 31, 2018, 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, 2019, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2018, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Basis for Review Results

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.

Dear Chris,

I am pleased to confirm our offer of employment as Chief Financial Officer for Yum! Brands, reporting to Greg Creed, Yum! Brands CEO. This position will provide tremendous opportunity for personal and professional development.

As we build a world with more Yum!, we need exceptional talent like you on our team to achieve our mission. At Yum!, you will have the opportunity to grow yourself through personal and professional development, make a difference and experience an energetic and inclusive culture.

Details of the offer are as follows:


•	Start Date: To be determined


•	Salary: You will be paid bi-weekly in the amount of $23,076.92 per pay period, ($600,000 if annualized), less applicable taxes and withholdings.


•	Bonus: In addition to your annual salary, you are also eligible for our Yum! Leaders' Bonus. This annual bonus recognizes and rewards you for our overall performance as a company as well as your individual contributions to the business.

Your target bonus award is 95% of your annual salary, but this award can range from 0 up to 300% of the target award percentage based on the performance of both you and the Company. Here’s how it works:


◦	Your payout from the Team Performance Factor is based on the year-end results of Yum!’s annual performance and can range from 0 to 200% of your target bonus.


◦	Likewise, depending on how well you perform against the personal goals and objectives set by you and your manager, your Individual Performance Factor could range from 0 to 150% of your target bonus.


◦	If we achieved the maximum 200% Team Factor multiplied by the maximum 150% Individual Factor this would result in a bonus award 3 times your target.


◦	For your first year in an eligible position, your reward will be prorated based on the number of days in position.


•	Long-Term Incentives: The target value of your award is $1,250,000 in economic value on the date of the grant. The actual award you receive will be based on management’s assessment of your performance. This award will be delivered 50% in Stock Appreciation Rights (SARs) and 50% in Performance Shares. Awards are typically granted annually in February.


◦	Stock Appreciation Rights: Our performance-based stock appreciation rights program allows you to have a stake in the long-term growth of the company by granting you the right to the appreciation or gain in Yum!'s stock price over time.


◦	Performance Share Plan: Your actual payout can range from 0% to 200% of the value granted to you depending on Yum!’s performance against pre-defined metrics over a three year performance period.


•	Sign-on Bonus: We are also offering you a one-time sign-on bonus in the amount of $500,000 (less applicable taxes and withholdings). This bonus will be paid to you within 30 days of your employment start date. If you voluntarily resign within one year of this date, you will be required to repay this bonus to Yum.


•	Sign-on Grant: You will also receive a sign-on Restricted Stock Units grants of $1,500,000 in economic value on the date of the grant. This grant will vest one-third (33%) per year.


•	Ownership Guidelines: To be eligible to receive an annual long-term incentive grant, you must be on trend with your Ownership Guidelines. Ownership guidelines are set by a multiple of your base salary and you have five years to reach these guidelines through a variety of ownership vehicles. For your level, you must hold a multiple of 3 times your salary.

•

Executive Income Deferral: The Executive Income Deferral Program (EID) provides our leaders with an opportunity to enjoy tax-deferred investment returns by deferring up to 100% of your annual bonus and/or up to 85% of your annual base salary. There are several investment choices for your deferred money. As an executive officer, you will be eligible to defer your income through any of the investment options in the Yum!'s Executive Income Deferral Program (EID) except for the Yum! Matching Stock Fund for bonus deferrals and the Yum Stock Fund for base salary deferrals.


•	Executive Physical: You will be eligible for an annual physical examination.

•

Retirement: In addition, after 60 days of employment, you are also eligible to participate in the YUM! Brands 401(k) Plan (the “401(k) Plan”). The 401(k) Plan will match your contribution $1 for $1 on up to 6% of eligible pay per pay period-starting with your very first contribution. Information regarding the 401(k) Plan, including enrollment and investment options, will be sent to your home address prior to your eligibility date.


•	Leadership Retirement Plan (LRP): The LRP is a nonqualified plan with 4 percent of Base Pay and Target Bonus credited on your behalf each year employed. Annual credits are subject to the actual plan provisions, including eligibility and vesting terms. After three years of service with Yum!, you will be vested in the LRP.


•	Benefits: A variety of benefits are available to you as a Yum! Employee.


◦	Medical, dental, vision, and legal are available to you effective on your first day of employment. However, you must enroll before your 45th day in order to receive coverage for 2019 and it will be backdated to day one of employment.


◦	There are other benefits available to you immediately, including but not limited to 24/7/365 physician access for only $20, wellness programs and information security protection.


◦	You can learn more about these benefits, and others, by visiting HRonline.yum.com. You will have access to HRonline.yum.com after your first day of work.


•	Vacation: You are eligible to receive four weeks of vacation.

Let’s make it official:

•	Change in Control: You will be provided a Change in Control agreement.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Financial Statement Presentation 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, 2018 (“2018 Form 10-K”).

YUM! Brands, Inc. and its Subsidiaries (collectively referred to herein as the “Company,” “YUM,” “we,” “us” or “our”) franchises or operates a system of over 48,000 quick service restaurants in more than 145 countries and territories. At June 30, 2019, 98% of these restaurants were owned and operated by franchisees. The Company’s KFC, Pizza Hut and Taco Bell brands (collectively the “Concepts”) are global leaders of the chicken, pizza and Mexican-style food categories.

As of June 30, 2019, YUM consisted of three operating segments:

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

YUM's fiscal year begins on January 1 and ends December 31 of each year, with each quarter comprised of three months. Our U.S. subsidiaries and certain international subsidiaries operate on a weekly periodic calendar where the first three quarters of each fiscal year consists 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. For our subsidiaries that operate on this weekly periodic calendar, 2019 will include a 53rd week. 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 2018 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 other items in the Financial Statements for the prior periods to be comparable with the classification for the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2019. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported Net Income.

Leases [Abstract]

Leases [Text Block] Lease Accounting

Starting in February 2016 and continuing into 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued standards on the recognition and measurement of leases ("Topic 842"). We adopted these standards beginning with the quarter ended March 31, 2019, using a modified retrospective transition approach for leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of 2019 and have not recast the comparative periods presented in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The standards provide a number of optional practical expedients and policy elections in transition. We elected the ‘package of practical expedients’ under which we did not reassess under the standards our prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. We did not elect the use-of-hindsight or the practical expedient pertaining to land easements. Refer to Note 5 for information regarding the adjustments recorded to our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of the beginning of the quarter ended March 31, 2019 to reflect the adoption of Topic 842. Below is information about the nature of our leases, accounting policies and assumptions subsequent to adopting Topic 842 and other required disclosures.

In certain instances, we lease or sublease certain restaurants to franchisees. Our lessor and sublease portfolio primarily consists of stores that have been leased to franchisees subsequent to refranchising transactions. Our most significant leases with lease and non-lease components are leases with our franchisees that include both the right to use a restaurant as well as a license of the intellectual property associated with our Concepts’ brands. For these leases, which are primarily classified as operating leases, we account for the lease and non-lease components separately. Revenues from rental agreements with franchisees are presented within Franchise and property revenues in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and related expenses (e.g. depreciation and rent expense) are presented within Franchise and property expenses. The impact of adopting Topic 842 on the accounting for our lessor and sublease portfolio was not significant.

We lease land, buildings or both for certain of our restaurants and restaurant support centers worldwide. Rental expense for leased restaurants is presented in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income as Company restaurant expenses and rental expense for restaurant support centers is presented as General and administrative expenses. The length of our lease terms, which vary by country and often include renewal options, are an important factor in determining the appropriate accounting for leases including the initial classification of the lease as finance (referred to as “capital” leases prior to the adoption of Topic 842) or operating as well as the timing of recognition of rent expense over the duration of the lease. We include renewal option periods in determining the term of our leases when failure to renew the lease would impose a penalty on the Company in such an amount that a renewal appears to be reasonably certain at the commencement of the lease. The primary penalty to which we are subject is the economic detriment associated with the existence of leasehold improvements that might be impaired if we choose not to continue the use of the leased property. Our leasing activity for other assets, including equipment, is not significant.

Prior to the adoption of Topic 842 (“Legacy GAAP”) liabilities for future rental payments under operating leases were not recognized on the balance sheet of the Company except when recognizing a liability was necessary to reflect the impact of recognizing rent expense on a straight-line basis. Upon the adoption of Topic 842, right-of-use assets and liabilities are recognized upon lease commencement for operating leases based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Such assets and liabilities have historically been recorded for finance leases. Right-of-use assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Subsequent amortization of the right-of-use asset and accretion of the lease liability for an operating lease is recognized as a single lease cost, on a straight-line basis, over the lease term. For finance leases, the right-of-use asset is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the lesser of the useful life of the leased asset or lease term. Interest on each finance lease liability is determined as the amount that results in a constant periodic discount rate on the remaining balance of the liability. As most of our leases do not provide an implicit discount rate, we use our incremental secured borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date, including the lease term and currency, in determining the present value of lease payments for both operating and finance leases. Leases with an initial term of 12 months or less are not recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet; we recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Right-of-use assets are assessed for impairment in accordance with our long-lived asset impairment policy, which is performed annually or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a restaurant may not be recoverable. We reassess lease classification and remeasure right-of-use assets and lease liabilities when a lease is modified and that modification is not accounted for as a separate new lease or upon certain other events that require reassessment in accordance with Topic 842. The difference between operating lease rental expense recognized in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and cash payments for operating leases is recognized within Other, net within Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Refranchising (Gain) Loss

The Refranchising (gain) loss by our Divisional reportable segments is presented below. Given the size and volatility of refranchising initiatives, our chief operating decision maker ("CODM") does not consider the impact of Refranchising (gain) loss when assessing Divisional segment performance. As such, we do not allocate such gains and losses to our Divisional segments for performance reporting purposes.

During the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2019, we sold certain restaurant assets associated with existing franchise restaurants to the franchisee. Additionally, we refranchised 6 restaurants in the first quarter of 2019. Pre-tax proceeds related to these sales totaled $11 million and $25 million for the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2019, respectively. During the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2018, we refranchised 51 restaurants and 195 restaurants, respectively, and received $47 million and $252 million, respectively, in pre-tax proceeds.

Pizza Hut U.S. Transformation Agreement

In May 2017, we reached an agreement with Pizza Hut U.S. franchisees that will improve brand marketing alignment, accelerate enhancements in operations and technology and that included a permanent commitment to incremental advertising as well as digital and technology contributions by franchisees (the “Transformation Agreement”). In connection with the Transformation Agreement we anticipate investing approximately $90 million from 2017 to 2019 to upgrade restaurant equipment to improve operations, fund improvements in restaurant technology and enhance digital and e-commerce capabilities. As of June 30, 2019, we have invested $82 million since the inception of the agreement.

We have invested $5 million and $13 million in the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2019, respectively, and $4 million and $11 million in the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2018, respectively, related to the Transformation Agreement. These amounts primarily consisted of capital investments and franchisee incentive payments that were capitalized. Also included are operating investments of $1 million and $2 million in both the quarters and years to date ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Due to their unique and long-term brand-building nature as well as their non-recurring impact on Pizza Hut’s Division results, the financial impact of operating investments that are part of the Transformation Agreement are not being considered by our CODM when assessing segment performance. As such, these operating investments are not being allocated to the Pizza Hut Division operating segment results for performance reporting purposes.

Depreciation on capital investments made as part of the Transformation Agreement is being allocated to Pizza Hut segment results as the expense is recurring and is not expected to significantly impact the comparability of results in any given period. For the same reasons, the amortization related to capitalized franchisee incentive payments is being allocated to Pizza Hut Division operating segment results.

In addition to the investments above, we funded $37.5 million of incremental system advertising from the second half of 2017 through 2018, including $2 million and $5 million we incurred during the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2018, respectively. These advertising amounts were recorded primarily in Franchise and property expenses and were included in the Pizza Hut Division segment operating results.

KFC U.S. Acceleration Agreement

During 2015, we reached an agreement with our KFC U.S. franchisees that gave us control of brand marketing execution as well as an accelerated path to expanded menu offerings, improved assets and enhanced customer experience. In connection with this agreement we are investing approximately $130 million from 2015 through 2019 primarily to fund new back-of-house equipment for franchisees and to provide incentives to accelerate franchisee store remodels. We invested $1 million and $2 million in the quarters ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $2 million and $3 million in the years to date ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. We have invested approximately $125 million since the inception of the agreement.

In addition to the investments above, we funded $60 million of incremental system advertising from 2015 through 2018, including $3 million and $5 million incurred during the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2018, respectively. These advertising amounts were recorded primarily in Franchise and property expenses and were included in the KFC Division segment operating results.

Turkey Acquisition Contingent Consideration

During the quarter ended June 30, 2019 we recorded charges of $8 million and $2 million to Other (income) expense and Interest expense, net, respectively, related to cash payments in excess of our recorded liability to settle contingent consideration associated with our 2013 acquisition of the KFC Turkey and Pizza Hut Turkey businesses. Consistent with prior adjustments to the recorded contingent consideration, our CODM does not consider this charge when assessing segment performance due to the nature of these costs. As such, these costs are not being allocated to any of our segment operating results for performance reporting purposes.

Investment in Grubhub, Inc. ("Grubhub")

On February 7, 2018, certain of our subsidiaries entered into a master services agreement with a subsidiary of Grubhub, the leading online and mobile takeout food-ordering company in the U.S., which is intended to provide dedicated support for the KFC and Taco Bell branded online delivery channels in the U.S. through Grubhub’s online ordering platform, logistics and last-mile support for delivery orders, as well as point-of-sale integration to streamline operations. Concurrently with the master services agreement, one of our subsidiaries entered into an investment agreement with Grubhub to invest $200 million in exchange for approximately 2.8 million shares of Grubhub common stock, subject to customary closing conditions. In April 2018, all necessary regulatory approvals were obtained and the purchase of Grubhub shares was consummated. Shares acquired as part of this purchase are restricted from being transferred until the earlier of the two-year anniversary of closing the investment agreement or 30 days following the termination of our master services agreement with Grubhub. In the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2019 we recognized pre-tax income of $24 million and $4 million, respectively, related to the mark-to-market of these shares, which includes the appreciation in the market price of Grubhub common stock less valuation adjustments related to the transfer restrictions. In the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2018, we recognized pre-tax income of $25 million and $91 million, respectively, which included the appreciation in the market price of Grubhub common stock since entering into the agreement less valuation adjustments related to the transfer restrictions. The $25 million recognized in the quarter ended June 30, 2018 also included the reversal of the valuation adjustment that was established in the first quarter of 2018 regarding the then likelihood of obtaining the necessary regulatory approvals to close the investment agreement. Changes in the fair value of our investment in Grubhub common stock are presented as Investment (income) expense, net within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Impact of Adopting New Lease Standards

As discussed in Note 2, we adopted Topic 842 beginning with the quarter ended March 31, 2019, using a modified retrospective method. Topic 842 was applied to all leases existing at, or entered into after, the beginning of 2019. As a result of adopting Topic 842, the following adjustments were made to the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of the beginning of the quarter ended March 31, 2019:

We recorded lease liabilities within Accounts payable and other current liabilities and Other liabilities and deferred credits of $83 million and $661 million, respectively, related to the present value of the remaining operating lease payments. These adjustments were partially offset by reductions to Accounts payable and other current liabilities and Other liabilities and deferred credits of $7 million and $56 million, respectively, primarily related to the write offs of liabilities previously recorded to reflect the impact of recognizing rent expense on a straight-line basis when lease payments were escalating under Legacy GAAP. Additionally, lease liabilities recognized upon adoption were offset by the write-off of prepaid rent of $11 million that was recorded under Legacy GAAP resulting in a decrease within Prepaid expenses and other current assets and Other assets of $10 million and $1 million, respectively.

We recorded a corresponding right-of-use asset within Other Assets of $690 million. This right-of-use asset reflected a $2 million impairment charge that would have been recorded before adoption of Topic 842 had the right-of-use asset been recognized under Legacy GAAP. A related increase was recorded in Accumulated deficit.

Our second quarter and year to date effective tax rate was higher than prior year primarily due to the unfavorable impact of lapping a prior year decrease to the provisional tax expense recorded in the fourth quarter of 2017 associated with the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “Tax Act”), the unfavorable impact of the global intangible low-taxed income provisions of the Tax Act in the current year, and lapping the favorable impact attributable to prior year refranchising transactions. These items were partially offset by lapping $19 million in expense recorded in the prior year to correct an error associated with the tax recorded on a prior year divestiture.

Pension Benefits 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. The Plan and our most significant non-qualified plan in the U.S. are closed to new salaried participants.

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

Derivative Instruments
6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2019

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivative Instruments Derivative Instruments

We use derivative instruments to manage certain of our market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates.

Interest Rate Swaps

We have entered into interest rate swaps with the objective of reducing our exposure to interest rate risk for a portion of our variable-rate debt interest payments. At both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, our interest rate swaps expiring in July 2021 had notional amounts of $1.55 billion and our interest rate swaps expiring in March 2025 had notional amounts of $1.5 billion. These interest rate swaps are designated cash flow hedges as the changes in the future cash flows of the swaps are expected to offset changes in expected future interest payments on the related variable-rate debt. There were no other interest rate swaps outstanding as of June 30, 2019 or December 31, 2018.

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. Through June 30, 2019, the swaps were highly effective cash flow hedges.

Foreign Currency Contracts

We have entered into foreign currency forward and swap contracts with the objective of reducing our exposure to earnings volatility arising from foreign currency fluctuations associated with certain foreign currency denominated intercompany receivables and payables. The notional amount, maturity date, and currency of these contracts match those of the underlying intercompany receivables or payables. Our foreign currency contracts are designated cash flow hedges as the future cash flows of the contracts are expected to offset changes in intercompany receivables and payables due to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.

Gains or losses on the foreign currency contracts are reported as a component of AOCI. Amounts are reclassified from AOCI each quarter to offset foreign currency transaction gains or losses recorded within Other (income) expense when the related intercompany receivables and payables affect earnings due to their functional currency remeasurements. Through June 30, 2019, all foreign currency forward and swap contracts related to intercompany receivables and payables were highly effective cash flow hedges.

As of both June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, foreign currency forward and swap contracts outstanding related to intercompany receivables and payables had total notional amounts of $456 million. As of June 30, 2019 these foreign currency forward and swap contracts have durations that expire in 2019 or 2020.

As a result of the use of interest rate swaps and foreign currency contracts, 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 June 30, 2019, all of the counterparties to our interest rate swaps and foreign currency contracts had investment grade ratings according to the three major ratings agencies. To date, all counterparties have performed in accordance with their contractual obligations.

Fair Value Measurements Fair Value Disclosures

As of June 30, 2019, the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, short-term investments, 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 notes receivable net of allowances and lease guarantees less subsequent amortization approximates their carrying value.

We estimated the fair value of the Securitization Notes by obtaining broker quotes from two separate brokerage firms that are knowledgeable about the Company’s Securitization Notes and, at times, trade these notes. 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 Company has interest rate swaps, foreign currency contracts, an investment in Grubhub common stock and other investments, all of which are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis (See Note 13 for discussion regarding derivative instruments and Note 5 for discussion regarding our investment in Grubhub common stock). The following table presents fair values for those assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis and the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the measurements fall.

The fair value of the Company’s foreign currency contracts and interest rate swaps were determined based on the present value of expected future cash flows considering the risks involved, including nonperformance risk, and using discount rates appropriate for the duration based on observable inputs. The fair value of the investment in Grubhub common stock was determined primarily based on closing market prices for the shares. The other investments include investments in mutual funds, which are used to offset fluctuations for a portion of our deferred compensation liabilities. The other investments' fair value is determined based on the closing market prices of the respective mutual funds as of June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018.

Contingencies
6 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2019

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

Guarantees, Commitments and Contingencies Contingencies

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 June 30, 2019, the potential amount of undiscounted payments we could be required to make in the event of non-payment by the primary lessee was approximately $500 million. The present value of these potential payments discounted at our pre-tax cost of debt at June 30, 2019, was approximately $400 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. Accordingly, the liability recorded for our probable exposure under such leases as of June 30, 2019 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.

We are currently engaged in various 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.

Contingencies	Jun. 30, 2019
Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Guarantees, Commitments and Contingencies	Contingencies 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 June 30, 2019, the potential amount of undiscounted payments we could be required to make in the event of non-payment by the primary lessee was approximately $500 million. The present value of these potential payments discounted at our pre-tax cost of debt at June 30, 2019, was approximately $400 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. Accordingly, the liability recorded for our probable exposure under such leases as of June 30, 2019 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. We are currently engaged in various 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.
