Yum! Brands (YUM), the parent company of
KFC, Taco Bell, and
Pizza Hut, is considering the sale of the globally recognized pizza chain, amidst underperformance. As Pizza Hut struggles in the market, YUM concentrates on driving growth via Taco Bell and KFC, which have helped fuel an
8% quarterly revenue rise. An strategic review for the chain is currently ongoing with the aim to maximize shareholder value and tap into its full potential. Those who invested in Yum! Brands five years ago have seen significant returns, with stock prices up by
59%. Key leadership appointments have been made by YUM to guide future growth globally. Newly appointed CEO, Chris Turner, takes the helm on October 1, 2025. Furthermore, the company is intensively exploring AI technology for supply chain management, aiming for greater efficiency under 'one voice'. Yum! Brands recently initiated corporate structure re-adjustments, moving its headquarters to a downtown tower. Members of the investment community, including Evercore ISI, are advising buying Yum Brands stock as it mulls the sale of Pizza Hut. Ultimately, this strategic review aims to position Yum Brands favorably for the future, following a mixed third-quarter performance.
