About Yum! Brands

From its filings with the US Securities and Exchange Commission

SEC filings

Yum! Brands is based in Louisville, Kentucky and is incorporated in North Carolina. Its shares trade on NYSE under the ticker YUM. It is a member of the S&P 500. The SEC classifies its business as retail-eating places. In the fiscal year to 31 December 2025, it reported revenue of $8.21bn and net income of $1.56bn. At that date it held total assets of $8.20bn and shareholders' equity of −$7.33bn.

In its own words

YUM has over 63,000 restaurants in 155 countries and territories primarily operating under the four concepts of KFC, Taco Bell, Pizza Hut and Habit Burger & Grill (the “Concepts”). The Company’s KFC, Taco Bell and Pizza Hut brands are global leaders of the chicken, Mexican-inspired food and pizza categories, respectively. Habit Burger & Grill is a fast-casual restaurant concept specializing in made-to-order chargrilled burgers, sandwiches and more. At December 31, 2025, 97% of our Concepts’ units are operated by independent franchisees or licensees under the terms of franchise or license agreements. The terms franchise or franchisee within this Form 10-K are meant to describe third parties that operate units under either franchise or license agreements.

In 2025, we began a review of strategic options for the Pizza Hut brand. The objective of the review is to create value for YUM, Pizza Hut and its franchise partners by determining the optimal approach to best capitalize on Pizza Hut's structural advantages — strong brand equity, experienced franchise partners and meaningful scale — in the highly fragmented pizza market. We currently intend to complete this strategic options review in 2026, and there can be no assurance this review will result in any specific outcome or transaction.
