(a)As expected, our company revenues declined primarily due to our
strategic program to sell company restaurants to our franchise
partners.
(b)Reported results, which are more fully described in the financial
attachments, include the impact of accounting changes, facility
action net gains, and unusual items.
David C. Novak, Chief Executive Officer said, "We are very pleased that Tricon grew its ongoing operating earnings per share by more than 40 percent in both the fourth quarter, and full year. Fueled by Pizza Hut's continued success, our full-year domestic blended same store sales growth was four percent, and our international business delivered its strongest increase in profits in almost a decade. These results are a clear reflection that we are continuing to successfully execute our operational and financial strategies. Stepping back, we took a number of actions that strengthened our long-term growth prospects and contributed to this year's outstanding results.
"We successfully entered three new product segments with considerable long term growth potential: "on the go" with sandwiches at KFC, "value" with The Big New Yorker at Pizza Hut and "big taste, hot value" with Chalupas at Taco Bell. We have continued to improve our cost base and have rapidly increased restaurant level margins to industry standards through improvements in base operations. Specifically, we dramatically improved our margins in 1999 which included about 125 basis points from base operations, on top of about 70 basis points from base operations in 1998. Importantly, we're confident we have the right programs in place to drive further increases. Improved margins have helped raise our ROAE up from ten percent to about 23 percent in just two years.
"Over the long-term, our future is even more promising based on the results we are achieving with our international business and our strategy to focus on key equity growth markets. In 1999 Tricon achieved a 39 percent increase in international ongoing operating profit. In fact, in 2000 over one-fourth of our total ongoing operating profit will come from our international business and we expect this to grow at about 15-20 percent annually. In addition to our international development opportunities, we have also uncovered significant new unit opportunity in the U.S. supported by the success of our individual restaurants and multi-branding efforts. In 2000 we expect to build over 1,300 new restaurants across our global system.
"On the financial front, we continue to put restaurants in the hands of growth ready franchisees. In 1999, we reduced our ownership of the system about five points to 23 percent, as we close in on our target of about 20 percent company ownership. Cash from operations and this refranchising strategy have enabled us to pay down over $2.1 billion in debt since year-end 1997, strengthening our balance sheet and increasing our financial flexibility, while also enabling us to invest in the business and buy back shares.
"Given this strong foundation, our outlook for 2000 remains very positive. We're targeting about six percent systemwide sales growth and expect to grow ongoing operating EPS 23 to 27 percent on top of our higher 1999 base. It's too early to know for certain what the impact to our results, if any, might be as a result of last month's Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing by AmeriServe, our principal U.S. distributor. We're pleased that we've been able to maintain service to our restaurants in a cost effective manner to date. We believe AmeriServe's filing should enable it to ultimately establish
a new long-term financing plan. In the interim, along with another major AmeriServe customer, we received Bankruptcy Court approval to extend a debtor-in-possession line of credit to AmeriServe, under which our commitment is $100 million, to fund AmeriServe's ongoing operations. We have also arranged for direct payments to AmeriServe's vendors who supply our system's restaurants," Mr. Novak concluded.
Tricon continued to achieve solid progress in its operations. In the quarter, its ongoing operating profit increased 11 percent driven by a 16 percent increase in franchise fees, a five percent decline in ongoing G&A and a 70 basis point increase in ongoing restaurant level margins. Ongoing base restaurant level margins increased over ten basis points in the quarter even though favorable insurance-related adjustments were 75 basis points lower than the prior year. The company's strong improvement in operating performance was fueled by improved cost management and an increase in blended same store sales in the U.S. of over two percent, driven by Pizza Hut, and a 29 percent increase in ongoing operating profit from the international business.
Tricon also continued to make substantial progress executing its financial strategies, refranchising almost 300 restaurants in the quarter and paying down nearly $200 million of debt. Year-to-date Tricon sold over 1,400 restaurants to its franchise partners reducing its ownership to 23 percent of the system, generated almost $1 billion in free cash flow, paid down over $1 billion in debt and invested approximately $470 million in new and existing restaurants. Based on the improved financial condition of the company, Duff and Phelps upgraded Tricon's debt rating to investment grade in January of this year. In addition, in the fourth quarter Tricon invested over $130 million to buy back 3.3 million of its own shares under the $350 million share repurchase program announced in September 1999.
David Deno, Chief Financial Officer, said, "Our ongoing operating EPS in the quarter was stronger than previously forecast primarily because of a lower effective tax rate, a benefit from insurance-related adjustments, and importantly, stronger performance from the base business. The lower tax rate was driven by a one-time item, however, we continue to implement tax strategies to permanently reduce our effective tax rate in the future. We expect to benefit from these strategies this year, which will allow us to overlap the 1999 one-time benefits reduction. A reduction in our tax rate provides an annual cash benefit to Tricon which ultimately increases shareholder returns.
"In 2000 we'll continue to make measurable progress against our financial strategies by selling 500 to 600 restaurants and generating close to $500 million in free cash flow," said Mr. Deno.
Pizza Hut's six percent increase in same store sales was the tenth consecutive quarter of growth. Driven by the success of The Big New Yorker, launched in January of 1999, same store sales increased nine percent for the year. By delivering on its competitive positioning to have the "Best Pizzas Under One Roof", Pizza Hut led the industry for the year in same store sales growth and grew market share in the key traditional segment.
KFC recorded a two percent increase in same store sales in the quarter on top of four percent growth last year. Full-year 1999, same store sales increased two percent. Starting in September, KFC introduced five new freshly made chicken sandwiches: Tender Roast, Original Recipe, Triple Crunch, Triple Crunch Zinger and Honey Barbecue. In this short period of time, KFC's share of the chicken sandwich category grew from under two percent to over eight percent. This success fueled a 24 percent increase in the chicken sandwich category, which was the strongest category growth in five years.
While sandwiches have not yet reached their full potential, considerable trial upside remains and Tricon believes that this new concept layer of sandwiches will help to drive profitability for the system long term. The focus in 2000 will be to drive sales through effective marketing of both the base chicken-on-the-bone business and sandwiches. In particular, sandwich marketing will be focused on building customer trial and repeat business long term.
As expected, Taco Bell posted a one percent decline in same store sales in the fourth quarter, against a nine percent increase in same store sales last year. This was Taco Bell's most difficult comparison in almost six years. With the launch of the Chalupa in the fourth quarter, Taco Bell successfully reignited transaction growth through its focus on value oriented hot and fried high quality products. Full-year 1999 same store sales were flat.
Tricon's international business delivered a 29 percent increase in ongoing operating profits in the quarter on top of 27 percent growth a year ago. On a local currency basis, same store sales were up at least five percent or better at KFC in Mexico, Australia, the U.K. and China and Pizza Hut in China and Singapore. Additionally, operating profits were up over 50 percent in China and Korea due to product promotions, new restaurants and improved cost controls. Consistent with its strategy to focus company capital on key equity growth markets, in the quarter Tricon entered agreements to transfer its restaurants in Canada and Poland to new joint ventures with some of its largest franchisees.
The term "ongoing" in the following section excludes the impact of accounting changes, facility action net gains, and unusual items.
-- System sales grew seven percent to almost $6.9 billion, driven by same store sales growth and net new restaurants. Year-to-date system sales grew six percent to nearly $21.8 billion.
- U.S. system sales increased three percent for the quarter
and four percent year-to-date.
- International system sales increased 16 percent for the
quarter and ten percent for the year. Excluding the
favorable impact of currency translation, international
system sales grew 12 percent for the quarter and eight
percent year-to-date.
-- As expected, Tricon's refranchising efforts drove a decline in our worldwide company revenues despite net new restaurants.
- U.S. revenues declined 13 percent in the quarter and 11
percent year-to-date.
- International revenues increased three percent for the
quarter and two percent for the year. Excluding the
favorable impact of currency translation, international
revenues were up two percent for the quarter and one percent
year-to-date.
- Franchise and license fees increased 16 percent in the
quarter and 15 percent for the year driven by existing
restaurants acquired by franchisees from Tricon and net new
restaurants.
-- Ongoing company restaurant level margins as a percent of sales increased 70 basis points for the quarter.
-- Ongoing base restaurant level margins were up over ten basis points in the quarter. Excluding the net unfavorable overlap of about 75 basis points of insurance-related adjustments, base restaurant margins were up 85 basis points driven by improved product cost management and new restaurants.
-- Year-to-date, ongoing restaurant level margins increased approximately 175 basis points; ongoing base margins contributed 125 basis points to this growth.
-- Ongoing general and administrative expenses (G&A) declined five percent in the quarter. Lower performance and incentive compensation and savings from Tricon's portfolio actions drove the decline. Ongoing operating G&A was flat for the year.
-- Other income declined 43 percent for the quarter and 31 percent for the year due to a net loss on foreign exchange transactions versus a net gain last year.
-- In the fourth quarter, the favorable impact of previously disclosed accounting changes totaled $0.03 per share. For the year, the favorable impact of accounting changes totaled $0.11 per share.
-- Net interest expense declined 24 percent in the quarter and 26 percent for the year primarily due to lower debt levels.
-- The effective tax rate on ongoing operating income for the quarter of 34.7 percent was lower than the anticipated rate of 39 percent primarily due to a one-time favorable international benefit. This compares to a 40.4 percent rate last year. In the quarter, the lower tax rate versus our previous forecast contributed about $0.05 to the growth in ongoing operating earnings per share. Tricon's full year effective tax rate on ongoing operating income was 39.3 percent versus 42.3 percent in 1998. For 2000, Tricon currently anticipates a 38.5 percent ongoing operating effective tax rate for the year.
-- Tricon repurchased 3.3 million shares for over $130 million in the fourth quarter under its $350 million share buy back program announced in September 1999. The share repurchase program decreased our average diluted shares outstanding by approximately 1.6 million and .5 million in the quarter and year-to-date respectively. Year-to-date in 2000, Tricon has repurchased 3.2 million shares for approximately $120 million.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS AND
SUPPLEMENTAL SCHEDULE OF REPORTABLE OPERATING SEGMENTS' REVENUES AND
OPERATING PROFIT:
(tabular dollar amounts in millions, except per share amounts)
Certain items have been reclassified in the condensed consolidated financial statements for prior periods to conform with the fiscal 1999 presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on previously reported net income.
(a) Percentages may not recompute due to rounding.
(b) Included in our 1999 operating results are several accounting and human resource policy changes. These changes fall into three categories:
-- Required changes in Generally Accepted Accounting Principles
("GAAP") resulting in a benefit of approximately $3 million
and $7 million for the quarter and year-to-date,
respectively,
-- Discretionary methodology changes implemented to more
accurately measure certain liabilities resulting in a
benefit of approximately $1 million and $14 million, for the
quarter and year-to-date, respectively, and
-- Policy changes driven by our accounting and human resource
standardization programs resulting in a benefit of
approximately $4 million and $8 million for the quarter and
year-to-date, respectively.
These changes impacted our results as follows:
