    David C. Novak, Chairman and CEO, said, "We have continuously
positioned Yum! Brands to deliver consistent global growth while at
the same time generating substantial and increasing cash flow.

    "Third-quarter performance demonstrated our global growth once
again led by 26% profit growth in China and 22% growth at YRI. As a
result third-quarter EPS increased by 20% despite a 2% decline in U.S.
same-store sales and U.S. profit growth of 1%. Fueled by this
continued strong profit growth from each of our international
divisions, we have once again raised our full-year EPS forecast,
increasing it from $2.83 to $2.89 or 14% growth. This marks our fifth
straight year of at least 13% EPS growth, exceeding our annual target
of at least 10% growth. Importantly, we continue to build even
stronger market positions in our China and YRI businesses.

    "At the same time, our company generates substantial free cash
available for payout to our shareholders with the U.S. business
leading the way. We expect to return over $1 billion to shareholders
again this year in the form of share buybacks and an increased
dividend. For 2006, this payout is substantial for each of our
long-term shareholders as our share count will be reduced by 6%, and
our dividend provides an additional return of more than 1%. We fully
expect to continue to return similar substantial amounts of cash to
shareholders for the foreseeable future.

    "Looking ahead, the growing strength of our China and YRI
businesses gives us continued confidence in our ability to sustain
annual EPS growth of at least 10% while we consistently generate
substantial cash.

    "We remain focused on our four key strategies: (1) build dominant
restaurant brands in China, (2) drive profitable international
expansion, (3) improve U.S. brands and operations, and (4) multibrand
category-leading brands."

    For the third quarter, franchise fees continued to grow as a
result of new-restaurant expansion and same-store-sales growth of 4%.
Additionally, the expansion of our franchise-restaurant base due to
the sale of company restaurants to franchisees (refranchising) added
to growth in franchise fees. YRI opened 176 new restaurants in the
third quarter and 452 year to date with franchisees opening 94% of the
total year to date. Strong system-sales-growth performance continued
in YRI's franchise-only markets driven by both solid growth in new
units and same-store sales.

    For the third quarter, company sales were reduced by the impact of
refranchising 157 company restaurants over the past year.
Company-sales growth of +3% was lower by 6 percentage points due to
this change in restaurant ownership. Overall, company same-store-sales
growth was +4%, improving from a decline in the first quarter and
slightly positive results in the second quarter.

    Operating margin increased 2.7 percentage points in the third
quarter driven by strong franchise performance reflected by 15% growth
in franchise fees.

    We received regulatory approval to complete the acquisition of the
remaining 50% ownership of the Pizza Hut U.K. joint venture from
Whitbread PLC on September 12, 2006. We expect some additional
balance-of-year operating-profit growth from this business.

    For YRI full-year 2006, we expect . . .

    --  System-sales growth of at least 7%.

    --  New-restaurant openings of at least 770.

    --  Operating profit of at least +10%.

    These full-year growth rates are in local currency and excluding
the impact of the fifty-third week last year.

    CHINA DIVISION

    Key growth driver: Profitable expansion of new KFC and Pizza Hut
company restaurants in mainland China.

    Note: China Division includes mainland China, Thailand and the KFC
Taiwan business.

    For the third quarter 2006, company sales for the China Division
increased 25% in local-currency terms due to the continued strong
expansion of both our KFC and Pizza Hut brands in mainland China. Each
brand is the market leader within the quick-service category and
casual-dining category respectively. Mainland China system restaurants
in operation grew 18%, and system-same-store sales grew 12% in
local-currency terms.

    Third-quarter 2006 operating profit increased 23% in
local-currency terms versus last year. The key contributing factor was
continued growth in both our KFC and Pizza Hut brands' sales in
mainland China. Importantly, third-quarter restaurant margin reached
an all-time record. Last year, third-quarter China Division operating
profit included $14 million in other income from a one-time financial
recovery from a supplier.

    For the China Division full-year 2006 in local currency, we expect
.. . .

    --  System-sales growth of 24%.

    --  Operating-profit growth in the range of 35% to 40%.

    For the third quarter, franchise sales and fees grew slightly as a
result of opening new franchise restaurants and the expansion of our
franchise-restaurant base due to the sale of 307 company-owned
restaurants to franchisees (refranchising) over the past year.

    Company sales declined by 8% for the third quarter primarily from
the impact of refranchising 307 company-owned restaurants the past 12
months.

    The key drivers of improvement in third-quarter restaurant and
operating margins were a much improved commodity-cost environment and
lower impairment expenses versus a year ago respectively. Overall,
commodity costs declined by approximately $10 million versus last
year.

    For the U.S. in 2006, we expect . . .

    --  Blended same-store sales to be flat.

    --  Operating-profit growth of +3% to +5%, excluding the
        fifty-third-week benefit in 2005.

    U.S. FRANCHISE OWNERSHIP UPDATE

    As previously communicated, in the U.S. business we have targeted
to sell approximately 1,000 company restaurants to franchisees during
2006 and 2007. We are on schedule and remain fully confident of
meeting our original two-year plan. Year-to-date 2006, 191
company-owned U.S. restaurants have been sold to our franchisees.

    Our two-year program was originally targeted to produce cash
proceeds of $300 million, improve restaurant margin by at least 0.5
percentage points, improve ROIC by at least 0.75 percentage points,
and have a neutral impact on U.S. operating profit. Our latest
estimate is that cash proceeds for 2006 alone will total at least $250
million versus the original target of $150 million. Operating-profit
impact for the U.S. in 2006 will be slightly negative, offset in 2007
by reduced G&A related to the operation of company restaurants sold
during 2006.

    FREE CASH FLOW

    For full-year 2006, we continue to expect to generate about $1.3
billion in Cash from Operating Activities and about $700 million of
free cash flow after capital expenditures. As we have previously
communicated, our objective is to return virtually all free cash
available to our shareholders through our share buybacks and quarterly
dividends after investing more than $600 million in our worldwide
businesses. For the full year 2006, we expect the total payout to net
about 7% to shareholders, which includes significant share buybacks,
reducing share count by 6%, and approximately 1% returned through the
quarterly dividend.

    During the third quarter of 2006, we purchased 7.1 million shares
for $337 million. Year-to-date share repurchases totaled $853 million.

Notes to the Consolidated Summary of Results, Condensed Consolidated
  Balance Sheets and Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows
           (amounts in millions, except per share amounts)
                             (unaudited)

(a)Percentages may not recompute due to rounding.

(b)All periods presented reflect the Company's adoption of Statement
    of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 123 (Revised 2004),
    "Share-Based Payment" (SFAS 123R) effective September 4, 2005. The
    Company adopted SFAS 123R by applying the modified retrospective
    application transition method to the beginning of 2005, and as
    such the first three fiscal quarters of 2005 were adjusted to
    recognize the compensation cost for stock options previously
    reported only in the financial statement proforma footnote
    disclosures as required by SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-
    Based Compensation". Previously reported diluted EPS prior to the
    adoption of SFAS 123R and this adjustment was $0.72 and $1.87 in
    the quarter and year to date ended September 3, 2005,
    respectively.

(c)Amounts presented as of and for the quarter and year to date ended
    September 9, 2006 are preliminary.

(d)Other (income) expense includes equity income from investments in
    unconsolidated affiliates. In the quarter ended March 25, 2006, we
    also recorded an $8 million charge associated with the termination
    of a beverage agreement in the United States segment as other
    expense. In the quarter ended June 11, 2005, we recorded a $17
    million gain associated with the IPO of our Poland/Czech Republic
    business as other income. In the quarter ended September 3, 2005
    we recorded a partial financial recovery of $14 million related to
    a China supplier ingredient issue as other income.

(e)Income of $2 million was recorded in the quarter ended September 3,
    2005 from a settlement with an insurance carrier related to the
    legal judgment against Taco Bell Corp. on June 4, 2003, in Wrench
    v. Taco Bell Corp.
