Analyst consensus from Finnhub and Financial Modeling Prep. Actual results posted within minutes of the SEC filing on the YUM page.
Drawn from management commentary in the Q2 2026 10-Q:
Management completed its strategic review and entered definitive agreements to sell the Pizza Hut brand in two transactions. Yum expects to receive approximately $2.3 billion in net proceeds after taxes and fees, with a potential $75 million earn-out. Both deals are expected to close in August 2026.
In July 2026, a multistate Cyclospora outbreak prompted Taco Bell U.S. to voluntarily remove and recall certain lettuce. Management warned of a meaningful near-term sales impact and guided Q3 Taco Bell U.S. company restaurant margin to 19%–21%, down from the 25.9% reported in Q2.
KFC Division operating profit grew 9% ex‑FX in the quarter, fueled by 2% same‑store sales growth and a 7% net unit increase. Franchise and property revenues also benefited from unit growth and higher franchise sales.
