Yum! Brands reports Q3 adjusted EPS $1.37, consensus $1.41

Reports Q3 SSS down 2%. David Gibbs, CEO, said “I’m incredibly proud of how our teams have navigated such a complex consumer environment to deliver 3% Core Operating Profit growth this quarter. The strengths of our twin growth engines were evident: Taco Bell U.S. significantly outperformed QSR competition with 4% same-store sales growth, and KFC International grew units an impressive 9% year-over-year. KFC International’s unit openings spanned 64 countries this quarter, and year-to-date gross openings are up nearly 150 units year-over-year. While sales have been impacted by pressures relating to geopolitical conflicts and challenged consumer sentiment, our iconic brands which are led by our world-class talent and enabled by Yum!’s unmatched scale and cutting-edge, proprietary tech, are positioned for unstoppable growth.”
