Yum! Brands, Inc. and its subsidiaries franchise or operate more than 63,000 restaurants in 155 countries and territories under its iconic brands - KFC, Taco Bell, Pizza Hut and Habit Burger & Grill. KFC, Taco Bell and Pizza Hut are global leaders in the chicken, Mexican-inspired food and pizza categories, respectively. Habit is a fast-casual concept known for fresh, cooked-to-order food.

Key Issues

Bullish view

Selling Pizza Hut for $2.7 billion could streamline Yum’s portfolio, reduce debt and direct management attention toward faster-growing KFC and Taco Bell.

Bearish view

The transaction may reduce portfolio diversification, while Pizza Hut’s softer performance and the execution required to redeploy proceeds could limit the expected benefit.
