David C. Novak, Chairman and CEO, said: “The strength of our worldwide restaurant portfolio enabled us to achieve our quarterly earnings target. Profits increased at both our U.S. and international businesses. We are especially pleased with our international results of 5% system sales growth in local-currency terms despite the adverse effects in the quarter from SARS in Asia and turmoil in the Middle East. The U.S business turned positive this quarter with same store sales growth of 1% at company restaurants, and we expect a stronger second half at each of the brands. As a result, for the full year 2003, we continue to expect to earn at least $2.00 per share prior to special items, which are currently projected to total $0.08 per share.

“This quarter, the company took a pretax charge of $35 million related to a legal judgement against Taco Bell. We plan to vigorously appeal the verdict, and if unsuccessful on appeal, intend to seek reimbursement from appropriate parties. This charge is included in special items.

“Importantly, we remain focused on executing our three key strategies — international restaurant growth, multibrand expansion, and improving restaurant operations — that will drive our continued growth and make us anything but an ordinary restaurant company. We are making solid progress against these strategies:


Following is an update on Yum! Brands’ international and U.S. businesses as well as key business-growth drivers, which include international expansion, multibrand expansion in the U.S., portfolio of category-leading brands, franchise-fee growth and substantial cash generation with high returns.

In the second quarter for Yum! Brands’ international business, continued expansion of our key international brands — KFC and Pizza Hut — was the primary driver of system sales and operating-profit growth. Company restaurant margins were down in the second quarter primarily due to sales deleverage. Some international markets were affected by anti-American sentiment, timing of the Chinese New Year, SARS (Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome) and macro-economic conditions. These markets included Korea, Taiwan, China, Thailand and Mexico. The favorable impact of foreign currency conversion added $5 million to operating profit for the second quarter.

The acquisition of Long John Silver’s and A&W contributed significantly to growth in U.S. system sales for the second quarter. The acquisition of these two brands occurred during the second quarter of 2002. Excluding this impact, system sales increased 2% for the second quarter.

In the second quarter, U.S. systemwide blended same-store sales increased approximately 2%. Estimated U.S. blended same-store sales for franchise restaurants increased approximately 2%, slightly better than company results, which increased 1%.

In the second quarter, U.S. restaurant margin was negatively impacted by sales deleverage at KFC and Pizza Hut and wage inflation. Additionally, higher occupancy and other operating expenses were a factor. The acquisition of Long John Silver’s and A&W negatively impacted margin by 0.1 percentage points.

International  192   403  
           
United States  70   157  


(a)

Excluding licensed locations.


Worldwide new-restaurant openings for the second quarter were driven by growth in new international restaurants from our global brands: KFC and Pizza Hut. Primary growth drivers were the four key international markets — China, the U.K., Mexico and Korea — with 65 new openings this quarter. Franchise and joint-venture partners opened nearly 70% of systemwide new international restaurants year to date. Versus the end of the second quarter 2002, net traditional restaurant count increased 35% in China, 13% in Mexico, 8% in the U.K., and 6% in Korea.

One point not reflected, which primarily affects U.S. net restaurant-growth statistics, is the impact of multibranding on our U.S. restaurant system. Multibrand conversions, while increasing the sales and points of distribution for the second brand added to a restaurant, result in no additional unit counts. Though no additional unit counts are realized, these conversions drive increases in same-store sales and result in upgraded, new-image restaurants for the U.S. business. Similarly, a new multibrand restaurant, while increasing sales and points of distribution for two brands, results in just one additional unit count.

This discussion excludes changes in licensed-unit locations, which are expected to have no material impact on the company’s overall profit performance in 2003. License locations are typically nontraditional sites, such as airports, that normally have substantially lower average unit volumes than traditional restaurant locations.

In the second quarter, 54 multibrand restaurants were added in the U.S., bringing the total to 126 U.S. multibrand additions year to date. In the U.S., company and franchise additions were 21 and 33 respectively. Approximately 50% of the U.S. multibrand additions are expected to be conversions of existing single-brand restaurants, and 50% are expected to be new-restaurant openings for full year 2003.

For the second quarter, the acquisition of Long John Silver’s and A&W contributed 2 percentage points, and favorable foreign currency conversion added 3 percentage points of franchise-fee growth. Excluding these factors, franchise fees increased 4%, primarily driven by net new-restaurant development. Positive U.S. same-store sales growth and increased international rates were also factors.

For second quarter and year to date, the company more than funded capital spending with net cash provided by operating activities. Additional cash was generated from employee stock-option proceeds, proceeds from refranchising restaurants and sales of property, plant and equipment. As a result, the company was able to reduce debt and repurchase stock as indicated in the preceding table.

THIRD-QUARTER 2003 OUTLOOK

The company is comfortable with the current consensus estimate of $0.52 in reported EPS. At this time, the company assumes no special items in the third quarter. This is an increase of $0.06, or 13%, compared to last year’s performance, prior to a gain of $0.01 from special items in 2002.

Projected factors contributing to the company’s EPS expectations are

-

International system-sales growth of 4% to 5% prior to foreign currency conversion, or 10% to 11% after conversion to U.S. dollars. Year-over-year net growth in international traditional restaurants of +5% to +6% will be the primary driver.


-

Based on current foreign currency rates, the company expects a benefit of $4 to $5 million from foreign currency conversion on operating profit for the third quarter. The Australian dollar, British pound sterling, Canadian dollar, Chinese renminbi, Japanese yen, Korean won, and Mexican peso are important currencies in the company’s international business.


-

U.S. blended same-store sales for company restaurants up approximately 3%.


-

Worldwide company restaurant margin is expected to be down approximately one percentage point from third quarter last year. International margin is expected to decline by approximately 1.5 percentage points to a range of 15.0% to 15.5%.


-

General and administrative expenses even in U.S. dollar terms versus last year.


-

Interest expense down slightly versus last year.


-

Refranchising gain/(loss) approximately equal to last year.


-

A targeted tax rate before special items of 29% to 32% versus 31% last year.


ANNUAL OUTLOOK

The company expects earnings per share to grow at least 10% each year with the continued execution of its three key strategies: (1) international new-restaurant growth; (2) multibrand restaurant expansion in the U.S.; and (3) improving restaurant operations and differentiating our core-brand portfolio, resulting in top consumer-rated measures. For 2003, Yum! Brands expects to earn at least $2.00 on a reported EPS basis before special items, or $1.92 reported EPS. This is at least 10% growth versus last year’s $1.82 prior to special items. Net special items are currently expected to be $0.08 for the full year 2003.

For 2003, the company expects worldwide revenue growth of 7% to 8%. This includes 2 percentage points from the favorable impact of the Long John Silver’s and A&W acquisition, at least 2% worldwide traditional system restaurant growth and 1% growth in U.S. company blended same-store sales.

PERIOD 7 SALES

Period 7 estimated international system sales increased 3% prior to foreign currency conversion or 10% after conversion to U.S. dollars. Estimated U.S. blended same-store sales at company restaurants were even during the four-week period ended July 12, 2003 (Period 7).

Yum! Brands, Inc., based in Louisville, Kentucky, is the world’s largest restaurant company in terms of system units with approximately 33,000 restaurants in more than 100 countries and territories. Four of the company’s restaurant brands —KFC, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell and Long John Silver’s— are the global leaders of the chicken, pizza, Mexican-style food and quick-service seafood categories respectively. Since 1919, A&W All-American Food has been serving a signature frosty mug root beer float and all-American pure-beef hamburgers and hot dogs, making it the longest running quick-service franchise chain in America. Yum! Brands is the worldwide leader in multibranding, which offers consumers more choice and convenience at one restaurant location from a combination of KFC, Taco Bell, Pizza Hut, A&W or Long John Silver’s brands. The company and its franchisees today operate over 2,000 multibrand restaurants, generating over $2 billion in annual system sales. Outside the United States in 2002, the Yum! Brands’ system opened about three new restaurants each day of the year, making it one of the fastest growing retailers in the world. In 2002, the company changed its name to Yum! Brands, Inc., from Tricon Global Restaurants, Inc., to reflect its expanding portfolio of brands and its ticker symbol on the New York Stock Exchange.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measurements to GAAP Results
(amounts in millions, except per share amounts)

In addition to the results provided in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) throughout this document, the Company has provided non-GAAP measurements which present operating results on a basis before special items. Special items include the GAAP income statement captions of Wrench litigation, AmeriServe and other charges (credits) and the Cumulative effect of accounting change, net of tax. These amounts are described in (c), (d) and (e) in the accompanying notes.

The Company uses earnings before special items as a key performance measure of results of operations for purposes of evaluating performance internally. This non-GAAP measurement is not intended to replace the presentation of our financial results in accordance with GAAP. Rather, the Company believes that the presentation of earnings before special items provides additional information to investors to facilitate the comparison of past and present operations, excluding items that the Company does not believe are indicative of our ongoing operations.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measurements to GAAP Results
(amounts in millions)

The Company has also provided a non-GAAP measurement - total cash generated - which is intended to measure cash flow inclusive of certain items not contained in the GAAP measurement of net cash provided by operating activities. This non-GAAP measurement is not intended to replace presentations of cash flows in accordance with GAAP. Rather, we use total cash generated to measure Company cash flow internally, and the presentation of total cash generated provides additional information to investors as to cash available to the Company to fund capital spending, repurchases of shares of common stock and debt repayments.

Other (income) expense  $  (2 ) $  5   $  (6 ) $  12  






(c) The amounts recorded as Wrench litigation reflect the legal judgment against Taco Bell Corp. on June 4, 2003 in Wrench v. Taco Bell Corp., as well as anticipated pre-judgment interest.

(d) The amounts recorded as AmeriServe and other charges (credits) for the quarter and year to date ended June 14, 2003 primarily included integration costs related to our acquisition of Yorkshire Global Restaurants. Amounts recorded as AmeriServe and other charges (credits) for the quarter and year to date ended June 15, 2002, which were previously referred to as unusual items, primarily resulted from recoveries related to the AmeriServe bankruptcy reorganization process.

(e) Effective December 29, 2002, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, “Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations” (“SFAS 143”). SFAS 143 addresses the financial accounting and reporting for legal obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated asset retirement costs. As a result of obligations under certain leases that are within the scope of SFAS 143, the Company has recorded a cumulative effect adjustment of $2 million ($1 million after tax). The adoption of SFAS 143 did not materially affect the results of our operations for the quarter or year to date ended June 14, 2003, nor do we anticipate that it will materially affect the results of operations in future periods.
