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, 2023 (“2023 Form 10-K”).  

Yum! Brands, Inc. and its Subsidiaries (collectively referred to herein as the “Company,” “YUM,” “we,” “us” or “our”) franchise or operate a system of over 59,000 restaurants in more than 155 countries and territories.  As of June 30, 2024, 98% of these restaurants were owned and operated by franchisees.  The Company’s KFC, Taco Bell and Pizza Hut brands are global leaders of the chicken, Mexican-style and pizza categories, respectively. The Habit Burger Grill is a fast-casual restaurant concept specializing in made-to-order chargrilled burgers, sandwiches and more.

As of June 30, 2024, YUM consisted of four operating segments:  

The KFC Division which includes our worldwide operations of the KFC concept
The Taco Bell Division which includes our worldwide operations of the Taco Bell concept
The Pizza Hut Division which includes our worldwide operations of the Pizza Hut concept
The Habit Burger Grill Division which includes our worldwide operations of the Habit Burger Grill concept

YUM's fiscal year begins on January 1 and ends December 31 of each year, with each quarter comprised of three months. The majority of our U.S. subsidiaries and certain international subsidiaries operate on a weekly periodic calendar where the first three quarters of each fiscal year consist of 12 weeks and the fourth quarter consists of 16 weeks in fiscal years with 52 weeks and 17 weeks in fiscal years with 53 weeks. For subsidiaries that operate on this periodic weekly calendar, 2024 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 2023 Form 10-K, the results of the interim periods presented. Our results of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows and changes in shareholders' deficit for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

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

We have reclassified certain items in the Financial Statements for the prior periods to be comparable with the classification for the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2024. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported Net Income.


Note 2 - KFC United Kingdom ("U.K.") and Ireland Restaurant Acquisition

On April 29, 2024, we completed the acquisition of all of the issued shares of two franchisee entities that owned 216 KFC restaurants in the U.K. and Ireland. The acquisition creates a significant opportunity to accelerate KFC's growth strategy in the large and growing U.K. and Ireland chicken market. The purchase price to be allocated for accounting purposes of $171 million consisted of cash, net of cash acquired, in the amount of $174 million offset by the settlement of a liability of $3 million related to our preexisting contractual relationship with the franchisee.

The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price is based on management's analysis, including preliminary work performed by third party
9


valuation specialists, as of April 29, 2024. We will continue to obtain information to assist in determining the fair value of net assets acquired during the measurement period.

The components of the preliminary purchase price allocation upon the April 29, 2024 acquisition were as follows:

Total Current Assets$2 
Property, plant and equipment, net88 
Reacquired franchise rights (included in Intangible assets, net)
47 
Operating lease right-of-use assets (included in Other assets)109 
Total Assets246 
Total Current Liabilities(18)
Operating lease liabilities (included in Other liabilities and deferred credits)(102)
Other liabilities(31)
Total Liabilities(151)
Total identifiable net assets95 
Goodwill76 
Purchase price to be allocated$171 

Reacquired franchise rights, which were valued based on after-royalty cash flows expected to be earned by the acquired restaurants over the remaining term of their then-existing franchise agreements, have an estimated weighted average useful life of 5 years. The excess of the purchase price over the preliminary estimated fair value of the net, identifiable assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill recognized represents expected benefits of the acquisition that do not qualify for recognition as intangible assets. This includes value arising from cash flows expected to be earned in years subsequent to the expiration of the terms of franchise agreements existing upon acquisition. The goodwill is expected to be partially deductible for income tax purposes and has been allocated to our KFC U.K. reporting unit.

The financial results of the acquired restaurants have been included in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements since the date of the acquisition but did not significantly impact our results for the quarter ended June 30, 2024. The pro forma impact on our results of operations if the acquisition had been completed as of the beginning of 2023 would not have been material. The direct transaction costs associated with the acquisition were also not material and were expensed as incurred.

Note 7 - Income Taxes
 Quarter endedYear to date

Income tax provision
$120 $60 $189 $131 
Effective tax rate24.7 %12.6 %21.8 %15.4 %

Our estimated effective tax rate on income for the full fiscal year is expected to be higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21%, primarily due to state income taxes and U.S. taxes on foreign earnings partially offset by taxes on income earned in foreign jurisdictions with statutory tax rates below 21%.

Our second quarter and year to date effective tax rate is higher than the prior year primarily due to the lapping of higher foreign tax benefits recorded in the quarter ended June 30, 2023, associated with the favorable resolutions of tax audits and the establishment of additional net operating loss carryforward deferred tax assets in foreign jurisdictions, as well as higher taxes paid in foreign jurisdictions where our intellectual property rights are domiciled and higher current U.S. tax expense on foreign earnings. These unfavorable items were partially offset by current quarter and year to date favorability associated with tax deductions for share-based compensation.

Note 8 - Revenue Recognition

Disaggregation of Total Revenues

The following tables disaggregate revenue by Concept, for our two most significant markets based on Operating Profit and for all other markets. We believe this disaggregation best reflects the extent to which the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of our revenues and cash flows are impacted by economic factors.

Our chief operating decision maker (CODM) does not consider the impact of Corporate and unallocated amounts when assessing Divisional segment performance. As such, we do not allocate such amounts to our Divisional segments for performance reporting purposes.

(a)Unallocated Company restaurant expenses include amortization of reacquired franchise rights (see Note 2).

(b)Includes changes in the value of our investment in Devyani International Limited (see Note 13).

Note 10 - Pension Benefits

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

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

Details of our Short-term borrowings and Long-term debt as of December 31, 2023 can be found within our 2023 Form 10-K.

On April 26, 2024, KFC Holding Co, Pizza Hut Holdings, LLC and Taco Bell of America, LLC (collectively, the "Borrowers"), each of which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, completed the refinancing of the then outstanding $713 million under the term loan A facility and $1.25 billion capacity under the revolving facility through the issuance of a new $500 million term loan A facility (the "Term Loan A Facility") and a $1.5 billion revolving facility (the "Revolving Facility") pursuant to an amendment to the Credit Agreement (as defined in our 2023 Form 10-K). The transaction did not add any additional net new debt to the Company's Balance Sheet. The Term Loan A Facility and the Revolving Facility will mature on the earliest of (i) April 26, 2029, (ii) the date that is 91 days prior to the March 15, 2028 maturity of the Borrowers' existing Term Loan B Facility if more than $250 million of such Term Loan B remains outstanding as of such date or (iii) the date that is 91 days prior to the June 1, 2027 maturity of the Borrowers' existing Subsidiary Senior Unsecured Notes if more than $250 million of such Subsidiary Senior Unsecured Notes remains outstanding as of such date. The amendment also removed the excess cash flow mandatory prepayment requirement with respect to the Term Loan A Facility.

The refinanced Term Loan A Facility is subject to quarterly amortization payments in an amount equal to 0.625% of the principal amount of the facility as of the refinance date now beginning with the third quarter of 2025. The Term Loan A Facility quarterly amortization payments increase to 1.25% of the principal amount of the facility as of the refinance date beginning with the third quarter of 2027. All other material provisions of the Credit Agreement remain unchanged.

As a result of this refinancing, $8 million of fees were capitalized as debt issuance costs, $6 million of which were paid directly to lenders, and are presented within Long-term debt on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2024. During the quarter ended June 30, 2024, previously recorded unamortized debt issuance costs of $1 million were written off and recognized within Interest expense, net due to this refinancing.

Cash paid for interest during the year to date ended June 30, 2024, was $254 million. Cash paid for interest during the year to date ended June 30, 2023 was $266 million.

Note 12 - Derivative Instruments

We use derivative instruments to manage certain of our market risks related to fluctuations in interest rates, equity prices and foreign currency exchange rates. Our use of foreign currency contracts to manage foreign currency exchange rates associated with certain foreign currency denominated intercompany receivables and payables is currently not significant.

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 primarily under our Term Loan B Facility. At both June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had interest rate swaps expiring in March 2025 with notional amounts of $1.5 billion. These interest rate swaps have been 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, 2024 or December 31, 2023.

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, 2024, the swaps were highly effective cash flow hedges.

Gains and losses on these interest rate swaps recognized in OCI and reclassifications from AOCI into Net Income were as follows:
 Quarter endedYear to date
 Gains/(Losses) Recognized in OCI (Gains)/Losses Reclassified from AOCI into Net IncomeGains/(Losses) Recognized in OCI (Gains)/Losses Reclassified from AOCI into Net Income

Interest rate swaps$3 $24 $(8)$(7)$14 $17 $(17)$(12)
Income tax benefit/(expense)(1)(7)2 2 (4)(5)4 3 

As of June 30, 2024, 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 $23 million, based on current Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") interest rates.

Total Return Swaps

We have entered into total return swap derivative contracts, with the objective of reducing our exposure to market-driven changes in certain of the liabilities associated with compensation deferrals into our Executive Income Deferral (“EID”) plan. While these total return swaps represent economic hedges, we have not designated them as hedges for accounting purposes. As a result, the changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recognized immediately in earnings within General and administrative expenses in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income largely offsetting the changes in the associated EID liabilities. The fair value associated with the total return swaps as of both June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, was not significant.

As a result of the use of derivative instruments, the Company is exposed to risk that the counterparties will fail to meet their contractual obligations. To mitigate the counterparty credit risk, we only enter into contracts with major financial institutions carefully selected based upon their credit ratings and other factors, and continually assess the creditworthiness of counterparties. At June 30, 2024, all of the counterparties to our derivative instruments had investment grade ratings according to the three major ratings agencies. To date, all counterparties have performed in accordance with their contractual obligations.

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

Note 13 - Fair Value Disclosures

As of June 30, 2024, 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 our notes receivable, net of allowances, and lease guarantees, less reserves for expected losses, approximates their carrying value. The following table presents the carrying value and estimated fair value of the Company’s debt obligations:

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The Company has interest rate swaps and other investments, all of which are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis (see Note 12 for discussion regarding derivative instruments). 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.

Assets
InvestmentsOther assets$1 $125 
InvestmentsOther assets7 7 
Interest Rate SwapsPrepaid expenses and other current assets2324 
Interest Rate SwapsOther assets 2 

The fair value of the Company’s 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.

Investments as of December 31, 2023, primarily included our approximate 5% minority interest in Devyani International Limited (“Devyani”), a franchise entity that operates KFC and Pizza Hut restaurants in India, with a fair value of $124 million. During the quarter ended March 31, 2024, we sold our ownership interest in Devyani for net proceeds of $104 million and recognized pre-tax investment losses of $20 million related to changes in fair value prior to the date of sale.

Note 14 - Contingencies

Internal Revenue Service Proposed Adjustment

As a result of an audit by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) for fiscal years 2013 through 2015, in August 2022, we received a Revenue Agent’s Report (“RAR”) from the IRS asserting an underpayment of tax of $2.1 billion plus $418 million in penalties for the 2014 fiscal year. Additionally, interest on the underpayment is estimated to be approximately $1.2 billion through the second quarter of 2024. The proposed underpayment relates primarily to a series of reorganizations we undertook during that year in connection with the business realignment of our corporate and management reporting structure along brand lines. The IRS asserts that these transactions resulted in taxable distributions of approximately $6.0 billion.

We disagree with the IRS’s position as asserted in the RAR and intend to contest that position vigorously. In September 2022, we filed a Protest with the IRS Examination Division disputing on multiple grounds the proposed underpayment of tax and penalties. In March 2023, we received the IRS Examination Division’s Rebuttal to our Protest and the matter is proceeding with the IRS Office of Appeals.

20


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

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

Lease Guarantees

As a result of having assigned our interest in obligations under real estate leases as a condition to the refranchising of certain Company-owned restaurants, and guaranteeing certain other leases, we are frequently secondarily liable on lease agreements.  These leases have varying terms, the latest of which expires in 2065.  As of June 30, 2024, the potential amount of undiscounted payments we could be required to make in the event of non-payment by the primary lessee was approximately $375 million. The present value of these potential payments discounted at our pre-tax cost of debt at June 30, 2024, was approximately $300 million.  Our franchisees are the primary lessees under the vast majority of these leases.  We generally have cross-default provisions with these franchisees that would put them in default of their franchise agreement in the event of non-payment under the lease.  We believe these cross-default provisions significantly reduce the risk that we will be required to make payments under these leases, although such risk may not be reduced in the context of a bankruptcy or other similar restructuring of a large franchisee or group of franchisees.  The liability recorded for our expected losses under such leases as of June 30, 2024, was not material.

Legal Proceedings

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

India Regulatory Matter

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

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

On January 29, 2020, the Special Director issued an order imposing a penalty on YRIPL and certain former directors of approximately Indian Rupee 11 billion, or approximately $135 million. Of this amount, $130 million relates to the alleged failure to invest a total of $80 million in India within an initial seven-year period. We have been advised by external counsel that the order is flawed and have filed a writ petition with the Delhi High Court, which granted an interim stay of the penalty order on March 5, 2020. In November 2022, YRIPL was notified that an administrative tribunal bench had been constituted to hear an appeal by DOE of certain findings of the January 2020 order, including claims that certain charges had been wrongly dropped and that an insufficient amount of penalty had been imposed. A hearing with the administrative tribunal that had been scheduled for July 30, 2024 has been rescheduled to October 8, 2024. A hearing held on August 1, 2024, before the Delhi High Court has been continued to September 17, 2024, and the stay order remains in effect. We deny liability and intend to continue vigorously defending this matter. We do not consider the risk of any significant loss arising from this order to be probable.

Other Matters

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

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

Introduction and Overview

The following Management's Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”), should be read in conjunction with the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (“Financial Statements”), the Forward-Looking Statements and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, (“2023 Form 10-K”). All Note references herein refer to the Notes to the Financial Statements.  Tabular amounts are displayed in millions of U.S. dollars except per share and unit count amounts, or as otherwise specifically identified. Percentages may not recompute due to rounding.

Yum! Brands, Inc. and its Subsidiaries (collectively referred to herein as the “Company,” “YUM,” “we,” “us” or “our”) franchise or operate a system of over 59,000 restaurants in more than 155 countries and territories, primarily under the concepts of KFC, Taco Bell, Pizza Hut and The Habit Burger Grill (collectively, the “Concepts”).  The Company’s KFC, Taco Bell and Pizza Hut brands are global leaders of the chicken, Mexican-style and pizza categories, respectively. The Habit Burger Grill, is a fast-casual restaurant concept specializing in made-to-order chargrilled burgers, sandwiches and more. Of the over 59,000 restaurants, 98% are operated by franchisees.

YUM currently consists of four operating segments:

The KFC Division which includes our worldwide operations of the KFC concept
The Taco Bell Division which includes our worldwide operations of the Taco Bell concept
The Pizza Hut Division which includes our worldwide operations of the Pizza Hut concept
The Habit Burger Grill Division which includes our worldwide operations of the Habit Burger Grill concept

Through our Good Growth Strategy we intend to unlock the growth potential of our Concepts and YUM, drive increased collaboration across our Concepts and geographies and consistently deliver better customer experiences, improved unit economics and higher rates of growth. Key enablers include accelerated use of technology and better leverage of our systemwide scale.

Our global citizenship and sustainability strategy is reflected in our Good agenda, which includes our priorities for social responsibility, risk management and sustainable stewardship of our people, food and planet.  

Our Growth agenda is based on four key drivers:
Unrivaled Culture and Talent: Leverage our culture and people capability to fuel brand performance and franchise success
Unmatched Operating Capability: Recruit and equip the best restaurant operators in the world to deliver great customer experiences
Relevant, Easy and Distinctive Brands: Innovate and elevate iconic restaurant brands people trust and champion
Bold Restaurant Development: Drive market and franchise unit expansion with strong economics and value

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

Same-store sales growth is the estimated percentage change in system sales of all restaurants that have been open and in the YUM system for one year or more, including those temporarily closed. From time-to-time restaurants may be temporarily closed due to remodeling or image enhancement, rebuilding, natural disasters, health epidemic or pandemic, landlord disputes, boycotts, social or civil unrest or other issues. The system sales of restaurants we deem temporarily closed remain in our base for purposes of determining same-store sales growth and the restaurants remain in our unit count (see below). Same-store sales growth excludes, for subsidiaries operating on a monthly calendar, the extra day resulting from a leap year and excludes, for subsidiaries operating on a weekly periodic calendar, the last week of the year in fiscal years with 53rd weeks. We believe same-store sales growth is useful to investors because our results are heavily dependent on the results of our Concepts' existing store base. Additionally, same-store sales growth is reflective of the strength of our Brands, the effectiveness of our operational and advertising initiatives and local economic and consumer trends.

Gross unit openings reflects new openings by us and our franchisees. Net new unit growth reflects gross unit openings offset by permanent store closures, by us and our franchisees. To determine whether a restaurant meets the definition of a unit we consider whether the restaurant has operations that are ongoing and independent from another YUM unit, serves the primary product of one of our Concepts, operates under a separate franchise agreement (if operated by a franchisee) and
22


has substantial and sustainable sales. We believe gross unit openings and net new unit growth are useful to investors because we depend on new units for a significant portion of our growth. Additionally, gross unit openings and net new unit growth are generally reflective of the economic returns to us and our franchisees from opening and operating our Concept restaurants.

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

In addition to the results provided in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (GAAP), the Company provides the following non-GAAP measurements:

Diluted Earnings Per Share excluding Special Items (as defined below);

Effective Tax Rate excluding Special Items;

Core Operating Profit. Core Operating Profit excludes Special Items and FX and we use Core Operating Profit for the purposes of evaluating performance internally;

Company restaurant profit and Company restaurant margin as a percentage of sales (as defined below).

These non-GAAP measurements are not intended to replace the presentation of our financial results in accordance with GAAP. Rather, the Company believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP measurements provide additional information to investors to facilitate the comparison of past and present operations.

Special Items are not included in any of our Division segment results as the Company does not believe they are indicative of our ongoing operations due to their size and/or nature. Our chief operating decision maker does not consider the impact of Special Items when assessing segment performance.

Company restaurant profit is defined as Company sales less Company restaurant expenses, both of which appear on the face of our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Company restaurant expenses include those expenses incurred directly by our Company-owned restaurants in generating Company sales, including cost of food and paper, cost of restaurant-level labor, rent, depreciation and amortization of restaurant-level assets and advertising expenses incurred by and on behalf of that Company restaurant. Company restaurant margin as a percentage of sales (“Company restaurant margin %”) is defined as Company restaurant profit divided by Company sales. We use Company restaurant profit for the purposes of internally evaluating the performance of our Company-owned restaurants and we believe Company restaurant profit provides useful information to investors as to the profitability of our Company-owned restaurants. In calculating Company restaurant profit, the Company excludes revenues and expenses directly associated with our franchise operations as well as non-restaurant-level costs included in General and administrative expenses, some of which may support Company-owned restaurant operations. The Company also excludes restaurant-level asset impairment and closures expenses, which have historically not been significant, from the determination of Company restaurant profit as such expenses are not believed to be indicative of ongoing operations. Further, while we generally include depreciation and amortization of restaurant-level assets within Divisional Company restaurant expenses used to derive Divisional Company restaurant profit, we record amortization of reacquired franchise rights arising from acquisition accounting within Corporate and Unallocated Company restaurant expenses as such amortization is not believed to be indicative of ongoing Divisional results as well as to enhance comparability of acquired stores' margins with those of existing restaurants. Company restaurant profit and Company restaurant margin % as presented may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies in the industry.

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

(a)    Due to their size and volatility, we have reflected as Special Items those refranchising gains and losses that were recorded in connection with market-wide refranchisings. During the quarters ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, we recorded net refranchising losses of $1 million and net refranchising gains of $2 million, respectively, that have been reflected as Special Items. During the years to date ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, we recorded net refranchising losses of $4 million and net refranchising gains of $5 million, respectively, that have been reflected as Special Items.

Additionally, we recorded net refranchising gains of $15 million during both quarters ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 that have not been reflected as Special Items. During the years to date ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, we recorded net refranchising gains of $23 million and $16 million, respectively, that have not been reflected as Special Items. These net refranchising gains relate to refranchising of restaurants unrelated to market-wide refranchisings that we believe are indicative of our expected ongoing refranchising activity.

(b)In April 2023, we completed our exit from the Russia market by selling the KFC business in Russia to Smart Service Ltd. Our GAAP operating results presented herein reflect revenues from and expenses to support the Russian operations for KFC prior to the date of sale, within their historical financial statement line items and operating segments. However, given our decision to exit Russia and our pledge to direct any future net profits attributable to Russia subsequent to the date of invasion to humanitarian efforts, we reclassed such net operating profits or losses from the KFC Division segment results to Unallocated Other income (expense). Additionally, we incurred certain expenses related to the dispositions of the businesses and other one-time costs related to our exit from Russia which we recorded within Corporate and unallocated G&A and Unallocated Franchise and property expenses. The resulting net Operating Loss of $9 million and $12 million for the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2023, respectively, has been reflected as a Special Item.

(c)We recorded charges of $25 million and $46 million during the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2024, respectively, and $8 million and $10 million during the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2023, respectively, to General and administrative expenses related to a resource optimization program. This program has allowed us to reallocate significant resources to accelerate our digital, technology and innovation capabilities to deliver a modern, world-class team member and customer experience and improve unit economics. We recently expanded the program to identify further opportunities to optimize the Company’s spending and identify additional, critical areas in which to potentially reallocate resources, both with a goal to enable the acceleration of the Company’s growth rate. Costs incurred to date related to the program include severance associated with positions that have been eliminated or relocated and consultant fees. Due to their scope and size, these charges have been reflected as Special Items.

(d)The below table includes the detail of Special Items Tax Benefit:

Other Income Tax impacts recorded as Special in the year to date ended June 30, 2024 and the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2023 include benefits related to the reversal of reserves due to the favorable resolutions of tax audits in foreign jurisdictions. Such reserves were established in prior years related to income tax liabilities and deferred tax assets originally recorded as Special Items as part of intercompany restructurings of intellectual property. Other Income Tax impacts recorded as Special in the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2023 also include the release of valuation allowances associated with a jurisdiction in which a market-wide refranchising event occurred.

Items Impacting Reported Results and Reasonably Likely to Impact Future Results

The following items impacted reported results in 2024 and/or 2023 and/or are reasonably likely to impact future results. See also the Detail of Special Items in this MD&A for other items similarly impacting results.

Middle East Conflict

During the fourth quarter of 2023, certain of our markets, principally in our KFC and Pizza Hut Divisions, began being impacted by a military conflict in the Middle East region. Our sales continue to be impacted significantly in markets across the Middle East, Malaysia and Indonesia, and the recovery trajectory we observed in these markets in the quarter ended March 31, 2024 flattened during the quarter ended June 30, 2024. The impact in the Middle East, Malaysia and Indonesia represented a low single-digit headwind to YUM's overall same-store sales growth in both the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2024.
30


Additionally, we believe we have experienced conflict-related impacts in a broader set of markets, though such amounts are difficult to precisely quantify. The Middle East conflict is ongoing, and its dynamic nature makes it difficult to forecast any impacts on the Company’s balance of year 2024 revenues, operating profit and unit count with any certainty.

Impact of Foreign Currency Translation on Operating Profit

Changes in foreign currency exchange rates negatively impacted the translation of our foreign currency denominated Divisional Operating Profit by $12 million and $23 million for the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2024, respectively. This included a negative impact to our KFC Division Operating Profit of $10 million and $20 million for the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2024, respectively. We currently expect changes in foreign currency to negatively impact Divisional Operating Profit by approximately $25 to $35 million on a full-year basis.

Investment in Devyani

During the quarter ended March 31, 2024, we sold our approximate 5% minority investment in Devyani International Limited ("Devyani"), a franchise entity that operates KFC and Pizza Hut restaurants in India, for pre-tax proceeds of $104 million. Changes in the fair value of our ownership interest in Devyani prior to the date of sale resulted in pre-tax investment losses of $20 million in the year to date ended June 30, 2024 and pre-tax gains of $28 million and $5 million in the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2023, respectively.

KFC Division

The KFC Division has 30,689 units, 88% of which are located outside the U.S. Additionally, 99% of the KFC Division units were operated by franchisees as of June 30, 2024.

Corporate and unallocated G&A

Corporate and unallocated G&A was flat during the quarter, as higher costs associated with our resource optimization program were offset by lower current year expenses related to our annual incentive compensation programs and lapping costs related to the prior year ransomware attack.

The year to date increases in Corporate and Unallocated G&A expense was driven by higher costs associated with our resource optimization program, partially offset by lapping costs related to the prior year ransomware attack and lower current year expenses related to our annual incentive compensation programs.

Interest expense, net

The quarterly decrease in Interest expense, net was primarily driven by lower borrowings.

The year to date decrease in Interest expense, net was primarily driven by lower borrowings and higher interest income.

Consolidated Cash Flows

Net cash provided by operating activities was $705 million in 2024 versus $678 million in 2023. The increase was primarily driven by an increase in Operating Profit before Special Items and timing of accounts receivable collections, partially offset by higher income tax payments.

Net cash used in investing activities was $253 million in 2024 compared to net cash provided by investing activities of $26 million in 2023. The change was primarily driven by outflows in the current year related to the KFC U.K. and Ireland restaurant acquisition and lapping proceeds from the prior year sale of KFC Russia. Current year proceeds arising from the sale of our approximate 5% minority investment in Devyani were primarily offset with higher current year purchases of short-term investments.

Net cash used in financing activities was $547 million in 2024 versus $698 million in 2023. The change was primarily driven by lower current year net debt repayments.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We have historically generated substantial cash flows from our extensive franchise operations, which require a limited YUM investment, and from the operations of our Company-owned stores. Our annual operating cash flows have been in excess of $1.3 billion in each of the past five years and we expect that to continue to be the case in 2024. It is our intent to use these operating cash flows to continue to invest in growing our business and pay a competitive dividend, with any remaining excess then returned to shareholders through share repurchases. To the extent operating cash flows plus other sources of cash do not cover our anticipated cash needs, we maintain a $1.5 billion Revolving Facility under our Credit Agreement which had $180 million outstanding as of June 30, 2024. We believe that our ongoing cash from operations, cash on hand, which was approximately $400 million at June 30, 2024, and availability under our Revolving Facility will be sufficient to fund our cash requirements over the next twelve months.

There have been no material changes to the disclosures made in Item 7 of the Company's 2023 Form 10-K regarding our material cash requirements. Due to the ongoing significance of our debt obligations, we are providing the update below.

Debt Instruments

As of June 30, 2024, approximately 96%, including the impact of interest rate swaps, of our $11 billion of total debt outstanding, excluding the Revolving Facility balance, finance leases and debt issuance costs and discounts, is fixed with an effective overall interest rate of approximately 4.5%. We ended the quarter with a consolidated net leverage ratio of 4.1x EBITDA. We continually reassess our optimal leverage ratio to maximize shareholder returns. We target a capital structure which we believe provides an attractive balance between optimized interest rates, duration and flexibility with diversified sources of liquidity and maturities spread over multiple years. We have credit ratings of BB+ (Standard & Poor's)/Ba2 (Moody's).

The following table summarizes the future maturities of our outstanding long-term debt, excluding finance leases and debt issuance costs and discounts, as of June 30, 2024.

New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which updates reportable segment disclosure requirements through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The standard is effective for the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2024, and subsequent interim periods, with early adoption permitted. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the financial statements. We are currently evaluating the impact of the standard on our disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which updates income tax disclosure requirements related to the income tax rate reconciliation and requires disclosure of income taxes paid by jurisdiction. The standard is effective for the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2025 with early adoption permitted. The amendments should be applied prospectively; however, retrospective application is permitted. We are currently evaluating the impact of the standard on our disclosures.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Except as disclosed below, there were no material changes during the year to date ended June 30, 2024, to the disclosures made in Item 7A of the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K.

Equity Investment Risk

During the quarter ended March 31, 2024, the Company sold its equity ownership interest in Devyani International Limited for pre-tax proceeds of $104 million. As a result, we are no longer exposed to material equity investment risk as of June 30, 2024.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 as of the end of the period covered by this report.  Based on the evaluation, performed under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”) and the Chief Financial Officer (the “CFO”), the Company’s management, including the CEO and CFO, concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by the report.

Changes in Internal Control

There were no changes with respect to the Company’s internal control over financial reporting or in other factors that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2024.

Forward-Looking Statements

Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts and by the use of forward-looking words such as “expect,” “expectation,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “may,” “could,” “intend,” “belief,” “plan,” “estimate,” “target,” “predict,” “likely,” “seek,” “project,” “model,” “ongoing,” “will,” “should,” “forecast,” “outlook” or similar terminology. Forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations, estimates, assumptions and/or projections, our perception of historical trends and current conditions, as well as other factors that we believe are appropriate and reasonable under the circumstances. Forward-looking statements are neither predictions nor guarantees of future events, circumstances or performance and are inherently subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and assumptions that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated by those statements. There can be no assurance that our expectations, estimates, assumptions and/or projections will be achieved. Factors that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from our expectations and forward-looking statements include (i) the factors described in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in Part I, Item 2 of this report, (ii) any risks and uncertainties described in the Risk Factors included in Part II, Item 1A of this report, (iii) the factors described in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in Part II, Item 7 of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, and (iv) the risks and uncertainties described in the Risk Factors included in Part I, Item 1A of our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. We are not undertaking to update any of these 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, 2024, the related condensed consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, and shareholders’ deficit for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the related condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, 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, 2023, 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, 2024, 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, 2023 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.

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, 2023 (“2023 Form 10-K”).  

Yum! Brands, Inc. and its Subsidiaries (collectively referred to herein as the “Company,” “YUM,” “we,” “us” or “our”) franchise or operate a system of over 59,000 restaurants in more than 155 countries and territories.  As of June 30, 2024, 98% of these restaurants were owned and operated by franchisees.  The Company’s KFC, Taco Bell and Pizza Hut brands are global leaders of the chicken, Mexican-style and pizza categories, respectively. The Habit Burger Grill is a fast-casual restaurant concept specializing in made-to-order chargrilled burgers, sandwiches and more.

As of June 30, 2024, YUM consisted of four operating segments:  

The KFC Division which includes our worldwide operations of the KFC concept
The Taco Bell Division which includes our worldwide operations of the Taco Bell concept
The Pizza Hut Division which includes our worldwide operations of the Pizza Hut concept
The Habit Burger Grill Division which includes our worldwide operations of the Habit Burger Grill concept

YUM's fiscal year begins on January 1 and ends December 31 of each year, with each quarter comprised of three months. The majority of our U.S. subsidiaries and certain international subsidiaries operate on a weekly periodic calendar where the first three quarters of each fiscal year consist of 12 weeks and the fourth quarter consists of 16 weeks in fiscal years with 52 weeks and 17 weeks in fiscal years with 53 weeks. For subsidiaries that operate on this periodic weekly calendar, 2024 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 2023 Form 10-K, the results of the interim periods presented. Our results of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows and changes in shareholders' deficit for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

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

We have reclassified certain items in the Financial Statements for the prior periods to be comparable with the classification for the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2024. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported Net Income.

Business Combination, Asset Acquisition, and Joint Venture Formation [Abstract]  
Business Combination Disclosure [Text Block] KFC United Kingdom ("U.K.") and Ireland Restaurant Acquisition
On April 29, 2024, we completed the acquisition of all of the issued shares of two franchisee entities that owned 216 KFC restaurants in the U.K. and Ireland. The acquisition creates a significant opportunity to accelerate KFC's growth strategy in the large and growing U.K. and Ireland chicken market. The purchase price to be allocated for accounting purposes of $171 million consisted of cash, net of cash acquired, in the amount of $174 million offset by the settlement of a liability of $3 million related to our preexisting contractual relationship with the franchisee.

The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price is based on management's analysis, including preliminary work performed by third party
valuation specialists, as of April 29, 2024. We will continue to obtain information to assist in determining the fair value of net assets acquired during the measurement period.

The components of the preliminary purchase price allocation upon the April 29, 2024 acquisition were as follows:

Total Current Assets$
Property, plant and equipment, net88 
Reacquired franchise rights (included in Intangible assets, net)
47 
Operating lease right-of-use assets (included in Other assets)109 
Total Assets246 
Total Current Liabilities(18)
Operating lease liabilities (included in Other liabilities and deferred credits)(102)
Other liabilities(31)
Total Liabilities(151)
Total identifiable net assets95 
Goodwill76 
Purchase price to be allocated$171 

Reacquired franchise rights, which were valued based on after-royalty cash flows expected to be earned by the acquired restaurants over the remaining term of their then-existing franchise agreements, have an estimated weighted average useful life of 5 years. The excess of the purchase price over the preliminary estimated fair value of the net, identifiable assets acquired was recorded as goodwill. The goodwill recognized represents expected benefits of the acquisition that do not qualify for recognition as intangible assets. This includes value arising from cash flows expected to be earned in years subsequent to the expiration of the terms of franchise agreements existing upon acquisition. The goodwill is expected to be partially deductible for income tax purposes and has been allocated to our KFC U.K. reporting unit.
The financial results of the acquired restaurants have been included in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements since the date of the acquisition but did not significantly impact our results for the quarter ended June 30, 2024. The pro forma impact on our results of operations if the acquisition had been completed as of the beginning of 2023 would not have been material. The direct transaction costs associated with the acquisition were also not material and were expensed as incurred.

Effective tax rate24.7 %12.6 %21.8 %15.4 %

Our estimated effective tax rate on income for the full fiscal year is expected to be higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21%, primarily due to state income taxes and U.S. taxes on foreign earnings partially offset by taxes on income earned in foreign jurisdictions with statutory tax rates below 21%.

Our second quarter and year to date effective tax rate is higher than the prior year primarily due to the lapping of higher foreign tax benefits recorded in the quarter ended June 30, 2023, associated with the favorable resolutions of tax audits and the establishment of additional net operating loss carryforward deferred tax assets in foreign jurisdictions, as well as higher taxes paid in foreign jurisdictions where our intellectual property rights are domiciled and higher current U.S. tax expense on foreign earnings. These unfavorable items were partially offset by current quarter and year to date favorability associated with tax deductions for share-based compensation.

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. Our two significant U.S. plans, including the Plan and a supplemental plan, were previously amended such that any salaried employee hired or rehired by YUM after September 30, 2001, is not eligible to participate in those plans. Additionally, these two plans in the U.S. are currently closed to new hourly participants.  

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

Details of our Short-term borrowings and Long-term debt as of December 31, 2023 can be found within our 2023 Form 10-K.

On April 26, 2024, KFC Holding Co, Pizza Hut Holdings, LLC and Taco Bell of America, LLC (collectively, the "Borrowers"), each of which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, completed the refinancing of the then outstanding $713 million under the term loan A facility and $1.25 billion capacity under the revolving facility through the issuance of a new $500 million term loan A facility (the "Term Loan A Facility") and a $1.5 billion revolving facility (the "Revolving Facility") pursuant to an amendment to the Credit Agreement (as defined in our 2023 Form 10-K). The transaction did not add any additional net new debt to the Company's Balance Sheet. The Term Loan A Facility and the Revolving Facility will mature on the earliest of (i) April 26, 2029, (ii) the date that is 91 days prior to the March 15, 2028 maturity of the Borrowers' existing Term Loan B Facility if more than $250 million of such Term Loan B remains outstanding as of such date or (iii) the date that is 91 days prior to the June 1, 2027 maturity of the Borrowers' existing Subsidiary Senior Unsecured Notes if more than $250 million of such Subsidiary Senior Unsecured Notes remains outstanding as of such date. The amendment also removed the excess cash flow mandatory prepayment requirement with respect to the Term Loan A Facility.

The refinanced Term Loan A Facility is subject to quarterly amortization payments in an amount equal to 0.625% of the principal amount of the facility as of the refinance date now beginning with the third quarter of 2025. The Term Loan A Facility quarterly amortization payments increase to 1.25% of the principal amount of the facility as of the refinance date beginning with the third quarter of 2027. All other material provisions of the Credit Agreement remain unchanged.

As a result of this refinancing, $8 million of fees were capitalized as debt issuance costs, $6 million of which were paid directly to lenders, and are presented within Long-term debt on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2024. During the quarter ended June 30, 2024, previously recorded unamortized debt issuance costs of $1 million were written off and recognized within Interest expense, net due to this refinancing.

Cash paid for interest during the year to date ended June 30, 2024, was $254 million. Cash paid for interest during the year to date ended June 30, 2023 was $266 million.

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, equity prices and foreign currency exchange rates. Our use of foreign currency contracts to manage foreign currency exchange rates associated with certain foreign currency denominated intercompany receivables and payables is currently not significant.
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 primarily under our Term Loan B Facility. At both June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, we had interest rate swaps expiring in March 2025 with notional amounts of $1.5 billion. These interest rate swaps have been 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, 2024 or December 31, 2023.

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, 2024, the swaps were highly effective cash flow hedges.

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

Interest rate swaps$$24 $(8)$(7)$14 $17 $(17)$(12)
Income tax benefit/(expense)(1)(7)(4)(5)

As of June 30, 2024, 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 $23 million, based on current Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") interest rates.

Total Return Swaps

We have entered into total return swap derivative contracts, with the objective of reducing our exposure to market-driven changes in certain of the liabilities associated with compensation deferrals into our Executive Income Deferral (“EID”) plan. While these total return swaps represent economic hedges, we have not designated them as hedges for accounting purposes. As a result, the changes in the fair value of these derivatives are recognized immediately in earnings within General and administrative expenses in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income largely offsetting the changes in the associated EID liabilities. The fair value associated with the total return swaps as of both June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, was not significant.

As a result of the use of derivative instruments, the Company is exposed to risk that the counterparties will fail to meet their contractual obligations. To mitigate the counterparty credit risk, we only enter into contracts with major financial institutions carefully selected based upon their credit ratings and other factors, and continually assess the creditworthiness of counterparties. At June 30, 2024, all of the counterparties to our derivative instruments had investment grade ratings according to the three major ratings agencies. To date, all counterparties have performed in accordance with their contractual obligations.

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

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

The Company has interest rate swaps and other investments, all of which are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis (see Note 12 for discussion regarding derivative instruments). 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 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.

Investments as of December 31, 2023, primarily included our approximate 5% minority interest in Devyani International Limited (“Devyani”), a franchise entity that operates KFC and Pizza Hut restaurants in India, with a fair value of $124 million. During the quarter ended March 31, 2024, we sold our ownership interest in Devyani for net proceeds of $104 million and recognized pre-tax investment losses of $20 million related to changes in fair value prior to the date of sale.

Internal Revenue Service Proposed Adjustment

As a result of an audit by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) for fiscal years 2013 through 2015, in August 2022, we received a Revenue Agent’s Report (“RAR”) from the IRS asserting an underpayment of tax of $2.1 billion plus $418 million in penalties for the 2014 fiscal year. Additionally, interest on the underpayment is estimated to be approximately $1.2 billion through the second quarter of 2024. The proposed underpayment relates primarily to a series of reorganizations we undertook during that year in connection with the business realignment of our corporate and management reporting structure along brand lines. The IRS asserts that these transactions resulted in taxable distributions of approximately $6.0 billion.

We disagree with the IRS’s position as asserted in the RAR and intend to contest that position vigorously. In September 2022, we filed a Protest with the IRS Examination Division disputing on multiple grounds the proposed underpayment of tax and penalties. In March 2023, we received the IRS Examination Division’s Rebuttal to our Protest and the matter is proceeding with the IRS Office of Appeals.
The Company does not expect resolution of this matter within twelve months and cannot predict with certainty the timing of such resolution. The Company believes that it is more likely than not the Company’s tax position will be sustained; therefore, no reserve is recorded with respect to this matter.

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

Lease Guarantees

As a result of having assigned our interest in obligations under real estate leases as a condition to the refranchising of certain Company-owned restaurants, and guaranteeing certain other leases, we are frequently secondarily liable on lease agreements.  These leases have varying terms, the latest of which expires in 2065.  As of June 30, 2024, the potential amount of undiscounted payments we could be required to make in the event of non-payment by the primary lessee was approximately $375 million. The present value of these potential payments discounted at our pre-tax cost of debt at June 30, 2024, was approximately $300 million.  Our franchisees are the primary lessees under the vast majority of these leases.  We generally have cross-default provisions with these franchisees that would put them in default of their franchise agreement in the event of non-payment under the lease.  We believe these cross-default provisions significantly reduce the risk that we will be required to make payments under these leases, although such risk may not be reduced in the context of a bankruptcy or other similar restructuring of a large franchisee or group of franchisees.  The liability recorded for our expected losses under such leases as of June 30, 2024, was not material.

Legal Proceedings

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

India Regulatory Matter

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

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

On January 29, 2020, the Special Director issued an order imposing a penalty on YRIPL and certain former directors of approximately Indian Rupee 11 billion, or approximately $135 million. Of this amount, $130 million relates to the alleged failure to invest a total of $80 million in India within an initial seven-year period. We have been advised by external counsel that the order is flawed and have filed a writ petition with the Delhi High Court, which granted an interim stay of the penalty order on March 5, 2020. In November 2022, YRIPL was notified that an administrative tribunal bench had been constituted to hear an appeal by DOE of certain findings of the January 2020 order, including claims that certain charges had been wrongly dropped and that an insufficient amount of penalty had been imposed. A hearing with the administrative tribunal that had been scheduled for July 30, 2024 has been rescheduled to October 8, 2024. A hearing held on August 1, 2024, before the Delhi High Court has been continued to September 17, 2024, and the stay order remains in effect. We deny liability and intend to continue vigorously defending this matter. We do not consider the risk of any significant loss arising from this order to be probable.

Other Matters

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

Guarantor Obligations [Line Items]  
Deferred Tax Liability Not Recognized, Events that Would Cause Temporary Difference to be Taxable, Undistributed Earnings of Foreign Subsidiaries As a result of an audit by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) for fiscal years 2013 through 2015, in August 2022, we received a Revenue Agent’s Report (“RAR”) from the IRS asserting an underpayment of tax of $2.1 billion plus $418 million in penalties for the 2014 fiscal year. Additionally, interest on the underpayment is estimated to be approximately $1.2 billion through the second quarter of 2024. The proposed underpayment relates primarily to a series of reorganizations we undertook during that year in connection with the business realignment of our corporate and management reporting structure along brand lines. The IRS asserts that these transactions resulted in taxable distributions of approximately $6.0 billion.We disagree with the IRS’s position as asserted in the RAR and intend to contest that position vigorously. In September 2022, we filed a Protest with the IRS Examination Division disputing on multiple grounds the proposed underpayment of tax and penalties. In March 2023, we received the IRS Examination Division’s Rebuttal to our Protest and the matter is proceeding with the IRS Office of Appeals.The Company does not expect resolution of this matter within twelve months and cannot predict with certainty the timing of such resolution. The Company believes that it is more likely than not the Company’s tax position will be sustained; therefore, no reserve is recorded with respect to this matter.An unfavorable resolution of this matter could have a material, adverse impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in future periods.

Loss Contingencies [Line Items]  
Litigation, Nature On January 29, 2020, the Special Director issued an order imposing a penalty on YRIPL and certain former directors of approximately Indian Rupee 11 billion, or approximately $135 million. Of this amount, $130 million relates to the alleged failure to invest a total of $80 million in India within an initial seven-year period. We have been advised by external counsel that the order is flawed and have filed a writ petition with the Delhi High Court, which granted an interim stay of the penalty order on March 5, 2020. In November 2022, YRIPL was notified that an administrative tribunal bench had been constituted to hear an appeal by DOE of certain findings of the January 2020 order, including claims that certain charges had been wrongly dropped and that an insufficient amount of penalty had been imposed. A hearing with the administrative tribunal that had been scheduled for July 30, 2024 has been rescheduled to October 8, 2024. A hearing held on August 1, 2024, before the Delhi High Court has been continued to September 17, 2024, and the stay order remains in effect. We deny liability and intend to continue vigorously defending this matter. We do not consider the risk of any significant loss arising from this order to be probable.
