LOUISVILLE, Ky.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--April 21, 2004--Yum! Brands Inc. (NYSE: YUM) today reported results for the first-quarter ended March 20, 2004.
-- Raises full-year 2004 EPS guidance $0.03 to at least $2.30 prior to special items, an increase of 12%, and reported EPS to at least $2.32.

restaurants increased 2%.

|
David C. Novak, Chairman and CEO, said: "I am pleased to report we
are raising our full-year 2004 estimate to at least $2.30 or 12%
growth prior to special items. This reflects our confidence that we
will once again exceed our 10% annual EPS growth target. Our estimate
includes the impact of increased commodity inflation in the U.S.,
which has minimal effect on our largest and fastest growing division,
Yum! Restaurants International. In fact, international profits grew
36%, and system sales grew by 8% in local currency for the first
quarter, and we anticipate once again opening at least 1,000 new
system restaurants outside the U.S. this year.
"In the U.S., Taco Bell continues to generate strong, positive
same-store-sales results driven by product news and steady operations
improvement. Pizza Hut results were driven by the successful
introduction of the innovative 4forAll(TM) Pizza. As expected, KFC's
sales performance continues to be negative. However, we expect
positive same-store-sales growth in the second half of the year as KFC
executes a major brand relaunch including the roll out of a new menu
board, new advertising campaign and new products.
"It is also important to note that while second-quarter
international system-sales growth will be adversely affected by the
avian flu, China sales trends have fully recovered, and we expect this
key market will continue to report rapid growth in 2004.
"Shareholders should continue to expect us to execute against the
unique growth opportunities that make us anything but an ordinary
restaurant company: profitable international expansion, steady
improvement in operations, and multibranding category-leading brands."

A key growth driver for this business segment is profitable
new-restaurant expansion.
In the first quarter, continued expansion of our key international
brands -- KFC and Pizza Hut -- and positive system same-store-sales
growth drove international revenue, system-sales and operating-profit
growth.
First-quarter international system-sales growth prior to foreign
currency conversion was 8%. Overall, system restaurants in operation
grew 5%, a significant contributing factor to this performance. Our
two most important markets, China and the U.K., increased system sales
in local currency terms by 40% and 10% respectively. Growth of system
restaurants in operation of 25% in China and 8% in the U.K. were key
factors. The company's international franchise-only markets,
representing 34% of international system restaurants, had 10% growth
in system sales prior to currency conversion and 6% growth of system
restaurants in operation.
Other markets contributing positively to overall system-sales
growth prior to foreign currency conversion included Australia and
Korea. Performance in Mexico, Canada, and Japan had an adverse impact
to overall international system-sales growth.
Restaurant margin as a percentage of sales increased 0.7
percentage points prior to the unfavorable impact from foreign
currency translation of 0.3 percentage points. The increase was
primarily driven by same-store-sales growth and the addition of new
restaurants with above-average margins, principally in China. The
increase was partially offset by the company operating Taco Bell and
Pizza Hut restaurants in Canada that were previously owned by the
Canada joint venture, which negatively impacted international
restaurant margin by 0.9 percentage points. For the balance of the
year, the company expects the adverse effect on margin of foreign
currency translation and the dissolution of the Canada joint venture
will continue to negatively impact international restaurant margin.
Overall, foreign currency conversion added $8 million to operating
profit.

|
In the first quarter, the primary drivers of revenue growth were
higher same-store sales and continued development of new,
higher-volume restaurants, which, on average, more than offset reduced
revenues and profits associated with the closure of lower-volume
restaurants.
System restaurants declined by one percent due primarily to
closures of Pizza Hut dine-in restaurants and certain lower-volume A&W
single-brand mall restaurants. The U.S. restaurant portfolio continues
to be upgraded with new restaurants, which, on average, are higher
volume, and many are multibrand. Opening new restaurants with higher
volumes than those restaurants that were closed contributed 1
percentage point of revenue growth.
U.S. restaurant margin increased 0.6 percentage points versus the
prior year, driven by positive same-store sales partially offset by
higher occupancy and commodity (primarily cheese and beef) costs.
Occupancy costs increased, primarily due to higher utility costs and
the amendment of two Long John Silver's sale/lease-back agreements
that were previously accounted for as financings now being accounted
for as operating leases. As a result of these amendments in the third
quarter of 2003, the payments made under these agreements that were
previously recorded primarily as interest expense are now recorded as
rent expense.

|
System new-restaurant openings for the first quarter were
primarily driven by growth in new international KFC and Pizza Hut
restaurants in the key international markets noted in the preceding
table. Franchise and joint-venture partners opened more than 70% of
systemwide new international restaurants for the first quarter.
In key markets with a company operations presence, restaurant
counts increased 25% in China, 8% in the U.K., 8% in Mexico and 2% in
Korea versus the end of first-quarter 2003. In franchise-only markets,
year-over-year restaurant growth was 6%, specifically, Asia, 9%;
southern Africa, 6%; the Middle East, 5%; and Caribbean/Latin America,
4%.
In the U.S. market, the majority of new-restaurant openings were
KFC and Pizza Hut restaurants. Over 60% of the U.S. new-restaurant
openings were franchised. KFC new-restaurant openings were
approximately 60% multibrand restaurants.
This discussion excludes changes in license-unit locations, which
are expected to have no material impact on the company's overall
profit performance in 2004. License locations are typically
nontraditional sites, such as airports, that normally have
substantially lower average unit volumes than traditional restaurant
locations.

In the first quarter, 91 multibrand restaurants were added in the
U.S., bringing the total to 2,221 U.S. multibrand restaurants in
operation at the end of the first quarter. Of the 91 U.S. multibrand
additions, 53% were conversions of existing single-brand restaurants
including 9% that were rebuilds on existing sites. The remaining 47%
were new-restaurant openings including 13% that were relocations --
building a new restaurant in place of an older restaurant nearby. More
than 50% of the 2,221 U.S. multibrand restaurants in operation at the
end of the first quarter were franchised.
In the U.S., the company's principal multibrand focus will combine
Long John Silver's with A&W, Taco Bell or KFC. Additional multibrand
combinations will include KFC with A&W. Pizza Hut will expand testing
of multibrand combinations in delivery/carry-out restaurants with the
newly created brand WingStreet.
First
Quarter
-----------
Franchise Net New-Restaurant Growth +1%
Total Franchise Fees ($ million) $223
Growth Vs. 2003 +9%
|
International markets contributing to +5% growth of international
franchise restaurants were Asia, southern Africa, the Middle East and
Caribbean/Latin America. In the U.S. market, overall franchise
restaurants declined 1%.
For the first quarter, favorable foreign currency conversion added
4 percentage points of franchise-fee growth. Excluding this factor,
franchise fees increased 5%. This growth was primarily driven by
international new-restaurant development and worldwide franchise
same-store-sales growth of 3%.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES
Worldwide general and administrative (G&A) expenses increased $30
million, or 14%, in the first quarter prior to an unfavorable impact
from foreign currency conversion of $4 million. The company incurred
approximately $7 million of one-time charges related to the impairment
of corporate assets and increased reserves related to potential
development sites. The increase was also partially attributed to
approximately $3 million associated with the company operating
restaurants in Canada that were previously owned by our Canada joint
venture.
Other factors contributing to the increase include costs
associated with the implementation of new financial and human-resource
systems, increased compensation-related costs including pension and
costs associated with international expansion.
OTHER INCOME/EXPENSE
Following the unexpected death of Arthur Ho, the principal of our Yan Can joint-venture, the company decided to dissolve this partnership. The company plans to liquidate the business. The financial impact of the dissolution was not material and is included in unallocated other income (expense).
CASH-FLOW
In the first quarter, the company generated $189 million in net cash provided by operating activities, spent capital of $103 million and repurchased $216 million of its own shares. Additional cash was generated from employee stock-option proceeds, proceeds from sales of property, plant and equipment and refranchising restaurants.
SECOND-QUARTER 2004 OUTLOOK
The company is comfortable with the current consensus estimate of
$0.52 in EPS prior to special items in the second quarter.
In several Asian markets, avian flu impacted the company's sales
trends at KFC. Sales in all these Asian markets, including China, have
recovered.
It is important to note that the short-term adverse impact of the
avian-flu situation in Asia will be reflected in second-quarter
results (primarily in Period 4 with some continued impact in Period
5). The company estimates the avian-flu situation negatively impacted
Period 4 international system-sales results by 5 to 6 percentage
points prior to foreign currency conversion. The company estimates the
negative impact of the avian-flu situation to Period 5 international
system sales will be approximately 2 percentage points prior to
foreign currency conversion. As previously indicated, the
international period close is one period prior to the company's
period-end date to facilitate worldwide consolidated reporting. The
company has incorporated the impact of the avian-flu situation in its
annual EPS guidance of at least $2.30 before special items.
Additionally, the company expects to receive recoveries from the
AmeriServe bankruptcy estate that will result in a second-quarter net
special-items gain of $0.02 per share. It is our expectation that this
will substantially complete the company's AmeriServe recoveries.
FULL-YEAR OUTLOOK
The company expects earnings per share to grow at least 10% each
year with the continued execution of its three key strategies: (1)
profitable international expansion, (2) steady improvement in
operations and (3) multibranding category-leading brands.
Based on first-quarter results and information currently
available, including the short-term impact of the avian-flu situation
and higher commodity prices, the company expects full-year EPS of
$2.30 prior to special items. As always, the company will continue to
update shareholders each four-week period on current sales trends
worldwide.
Projected factors contributing to the company's annual 2004 EPS
guidance were published in the company's December 4, 2003, press
release when the company presented its full-year EPS forecast for 2004
of at least $2.23 prior to special items. Based on current
information, the company believes that those factors remain
reasonable, except that the company now expects 2004 EPS of at least
$2.30 prior to special items, which incorporates the following updated
factors:
-- Worldwide revenue growth of +6% to +7%: International, +13% to
+14%; U.S., +2% to +3%.
-- Franchise fees will exceed $1 billion, growth of +7% to +8%.
-- International restaurant margin will be adversely affected by 0.5 percentage points versus 2003 due to the full-year impact of the company now operating restaurants in Canada.
-- General and administrative expenses will increase approximately $50 million or 5% versus 2003. This forecast includes the impact of the company now operating restaurants in Canada and the foreign-currency-conversion impact for the full year.
-- Interest expense will be down approximately $20 to $25 million versus 2003.
-- A benefit of approximately $25 million from foreign currency conversion on operating profit.
-- Average shares outstanding to be in a range of 304 to 307 million.
For 2004, the company currently expects reported EPS of at least $2.32 including a special-items gain of approximately $0.02 per share.

EPS prior to Special Items $2.30 $2.06 +12%
Special Items EPS $0.02 $(0.04) NM
Reported EPS $2.32 $2.02 +15%
|
PERIOD 4 SALES
Period 4 estimated international system sales increased 3% prior to foreign currency conversion or 12% after conversion to U.S. dollars. Estimated U.S. blended same-store sales at company restaurants increased 1% versus last year for the comparable four-week period ended April 17, 2004 (Period 4).
The company estimates the avian-flu situation in several Asian
markets negatively impacted Period 4 international system-sales
results by 5 to 6 percentage points prior to foreign currency
conversion. The company estimates the negative impact of the avian-flu
situation to Period 5 international system sales will be approximately
2 percentage points prior to foreign currency conversion.
The timing of the Chinese New Year in 2004 negatively impacted
Period 4 international system-sales results by approximately 1
percentage point versus 2003. As previously communicated, this
positively impacted Period 3 international system-sales results by a
similar amount.

U.S. BLENDED +1% +1%
Taco Bell +6% +1%

The timing of the Easter holiday weekend in 2004 negatively impacted Taco Bell and Pizza Hut Period 4 results by approximately 2 percentage points each versus 2003. This will positively impact Period 5 results by a similar amount.

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, in 2003, the Cumulative effect of accounting change, net of tax. These amounts are described in (d), (e) and (f) 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 facilitate the comparison of past and present operations, excluding items that the Company does not believe are indicative of our ongoing operations.

In the previous year's reporting of results for the quarter ended March 22, 2003, store closure costs and asset impairment charges were included in other (income) expense.
(c) Other (income) expense primarily includes equity income from investments in unconsolidated affiliates.
(d) An insignificant amount of expense was recorded for the quarter
ended March 20, 2004 reflecting interest related to the yet to be
paid judgment against Taco Bell Corp. on June 4, 2003, in Wrench
v. Taco Bell Corp. Our total recorded liability for this judgment,
including interest, at March 20, 2004 was approximately $42
million.
(e) Amounts recorded as AmeriServe and other charges (credits) were not significant for the quarters ended March 20, 2004 and March 22, 2003.
(f) 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 recorded a cumulative effect adjustment of $2 million ($1 million after tax).
(g) In the quarter ended March 20, 2004, we repurchased approximately 6 million shares of our common stock at an average price of $36 per share.

Multibrand conversions increase the sales and points of distribution for the second brand added to a restaurant but do not result in an additional unit count. Similarly, a new multibrand restaurant, while increasing sales and points of distribution for two brands, results in just one additional unit count.
(a) Amounts do not reflect 180 International multibrand units in operation at the end of the period. This balance includes a decrease of 18 units primarily related to corrections to the 2003 year-end multibrand unit count for Canada.
