David C. Novak, Chairman and CEO said, “I’m pleased to report full-year EPS growth of 14%, making 2011 the tenth consecutive year we exceeded our annual target of at least 10%.
The highlight of 2011 was again the exceptional performance of our China business, which grew system sales by 29% and operating profit by 15%, prior to foreign currency translation. We opened a record 656 new restaurants and delivered extraordinary same-store sales growth of 19%. Clearly, our KFC and Pizza Hut brands in China continued to strengthen their category-leading positions. At the same time, Yum! Restaurants International opened 905 new units, including 622 in high-growth emerging markets. We are on the ground floor of growth in India, Russia and Africa, where system sales grew at strong double-digit rates. For the year, our emerging market businesses at Yum! Restaurants International grew system sales 13%, prior to foreign currency translation, including new-unit growth of 7%. Emerging markets contributed nearly 50% of operating profit at Yum! Restaurants International. The Yum! growth story is clearly about China and a whole lot more.
We continue to focus on three key elements that drive the value of our company: new-unit development, same-store sales growth, and high returns. Our new-unit potential in emerging markets is arguably the best in the restaurant industry. To put this in perspective, today we have fewer than two restaurants per million people in the top 10 emerging markets compared to nearly 60 restaurants per million people in the U.S. Clearly, we have a very long runway for growth. To fully maximize the value of our existing asset base of 37,000 restaurants, we are introducing sales layers like breakfast, expanded beverages and new product platforms. Finally, we continue to be disciplined with capital as we invest in high-return growth opportunities around the world, along with paying a meaningful dividend and making significant share repurchases. Our return on invested capital of over 22% is among industry leaders and has improved for eight consecutive years.
We are proud of our consistent track record of growth and are well-positioned to meet or exceed our annual target of at least 10% EPS growth in 2012.”

OWNERSHIP UPDATE
- On February 1, 2012, we acquired a controlling interest in Little Sheep Group, Ltd., the leading hot-pot concept based in China. This included approximately 450 system units.
- During the fourth quarter, we divested our Long John Silver’s and A&W All-American Restaurants brands. LJS was sold on December 16th and A&W was sold on December 19th. These divestitures included 349 franchise units at YRI and 1,232 franchise units in the U.S. The U.S. franchise restaurants provided 5 percent of franchise revenue in the U.S. in 2011. We do not expect these divestitures to have a material impact to ongoing earnings.
- Our company ownership in the U.S. dropped to 13% from 15% last year. We refranchised 404 restaurants, including 264 KFCs, 74 Taco Bells and 66 Pizza Huts in 2011. Our target for Pizza Hut and KFC is about 5% company ownership. We also announced in December our decision to reduce company ownership in Taco Bell from 23% to about 16% over the next two years.
OTHER ITEMS UPDATE
- Our fiscal year ends on the last Saturday in December and, as a result, a 53rd week is added every five or six years. In 2011, this 53rd week benefited the U.S. and a portion of YRI markets by providing an additional week in their reporting calendars. This yielded a $26 million benefit to YRI and U.S. operating profit in the fourth quarter. As a result, the operating profit growth rate in the fourth quarter of 2012 will be negatively impacted by this overlap. This benefit was offset throughout 2011 by investments, including franchise development incentives, as well as higher-than-normal spending, such as restaurant closures in the U.S. and YRI.
- Worldwide effective tax rate, prior to Special Items, declined to 24.2% from 25.3% for the year, but increased to 26.7% from 23.8% in the fourth quarter of last year.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measurements to GAAP Results |
|
(amounts in millions, except per share amounts) |
|
(unaudited) |
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 in 2011 and 2010 on a basis before Special Items. Included in Special Items are the U.S. refranchising gain (loss), the depreciation reduction from the KFC restaurants impaired upon our offer to refranchise in 2010 that remained Company stores for some or all of the quarter or year presented, charges relating to U.S. General and Administrative ("G&A") productivity initiatives and realignment of resources, the losses and other costs relating to the sales of Long John Silver's ("LJS") and A&W All-American Food Restaurants ("A&W") brands, the losses associated with refranchising equity markets outside the U.S. and the depreciation reduction from the Pizza Hut UK restaurants impaired upon our decision to refranchise these restaurants which remain company-owned as of December 31, 2011. These amounts are described in (b), (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 the purpose 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 in 2011 and 2010 that the Company does not believe are indicative of our ongoing operations due to their size and/or nature.

| Notes to the Consolidated Summary of Results, Consolidated Balance Sheets | ||
| and Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows | ||
| (amounts in millions, except per share amounts) | ||
| (unaudited) | ||
| (a) | Amounts presented as of and for the quarter and year ended December 31, 2011 are preliminary. | |
| (b) | As part of our plan to transform our U.S. business we took several measures ("the U.S. business transformation measures") in 2011 and 2010 including: continuation of our U.S. refranchising, potentially reducing our Company ownership in the U.S. to about 8%, including a reduction of Taco Bell Company ownership from 23% to 16%; and G&A productivity initiatives and realignment of resources (primarily severance and early retirement costs). We have traditionally not allocated refranchising (gains) losses for segment reporting purposes and also have not allocated the costs associated with the productivity initiatives and realignment of resources to the U.S. segment. Additionally, these items have been reflected as Special Items for certain performance measures (see accompanying reconciliation to reported results). We recorded non-cash impairment charges, primarily in the first quarter of 2010, related to our offers to refranchise a substantial portion of our KFC restaurants in the U.S. We have recorded the depreciation reduction resulting from the non-cash impairment charges related to these KFCs that remained Company stores for some or all of the periods presented as a Special Item, resulting in depreciation expense in the U.S. segment results continuing to be recorded at the rate at which it was prior to the impairment charge being recorded for these KFCs while we continue to own the restaurants. | |
| (c) | During the quarter ended December 31, 2011, we sold the LJS and A&W brands to key franchise leaders and strategic investors in separate transactions. During 2011, as a result of our decision to sell these brands, we recognized $86 million of net pre-tax losses and other costs, primarily in Closures and impairment (income) expenses. Additionally, we recognized $104 million of tax benefits primarily related to tax losses associated with the sales. These items were recorded as Special Items and have not been allocated to any segment for performance reporting purposes (see accompanying reconciliation to reported results). | |
| (d) | During the quarter ended September 3, 2011, we recognized a pre-tax $76 million refranchising loss ($63 million net of tax) as a result of our decision to offer to refranchise all remaining company-owned Pizza Hut restaurants in the UK. This item was recorded as a Special Item and has not been allocated to any segment for performance reporting purposes (see accompanying reconciliation to reported results). During the quarter and year ended December 31, 2011, we recorded the depreciation reduction resulting from this non-cash impairment charge as a Special Item, resulting in depreciation expense in the YRI segment results continuing to be recorded at the rate at which it was prior to the impairment charge being recorded while we continue to own these restaurants. | |
| (e) | During the quarter ended March 20, 2010 we refranchised all of our remaining company restaurants in Taiwan, which consisted of 124 KFCs. We included in our March 20, 2010 financial statements a non-cash write off of $7 million of goodwill in determining the loss on refranchising of Taiwan. This loss did not result in a related income tax benefit, was not allocated to any segment for performance reporting purposes and has been reflected as a Special Item for certain performance measures (see accompanying reconciliation to reported results). | |
| (f) | Other (income) expense for the China Division primarily consists of equity income from investments in unconsolidated affiliates. | |
| (g) | Subsequent to year end on February 1, 2012, we completed our acquisition of an additional 66% of Little Sheep Group Limited ("Little Sheep") for $584 million. We owned 27% of the outstanding shares as of December 31, 2011, and had $300 million in an escrow account to demonstrate availability of funds to acquire additional shares in this business. The funds placed in escrow were restricted to the acquisition of Little Sheep and are included in Restricted cash in our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2011. | |
