Key Highlights
Revenue and Profit Growth Total revenues $11.80B, up 4% reported; Operating Profit $1.29B, up 11% excluding F/X impact.
System Sales Improvement System Sales grew 4% excluding F/X; Same-Store Sales Growth achieved 1% for the fiscal year 2025.
Restaurant Scale and Digital Sales Total restaurant count reached 18,101 units; Digital ordering drove 94% of total Company sales in 2025.
Risk Factors
YUM License Dependency Risk Success tied to YUM brand strength; Taco Bell development stalled, missing 2025 target of 225 stores (only 28 units).
China Regulatory and Delisting Risk Substantially all operations in China face evolving laws; PCAOB inspection uncertainty risks potential NYSE delisting.
Delivery Costs Pressure Margins Increased delivery cost due to higher sales mix partially offset profit gains; raw material price volatility remains a threat.
