Shares of Yum! Brands, Inc. (NYSE:YUM), declined -2.10% to $71.63, during its current trading session.
Yum! Brands, will discuss further details of its planned separation into two independent publicly-traded companies, with strong growth prospects for each, during its annual investor conference recently in Plano, TX. The Company will outline how the separation transaction will enable Yum! to transform from one company with a previous growth target of at least 10% EPS growth into two companies each targeting an estimated 15% shareholder return per year (EPS growth + Dividend yield). Furthermore, following through on its commitment to return substantial capital to shareholders in conjunction with its business separation, Yum! intends to return up to $6.2 billion of capital to its shareholders between the separation declaration date of October 20, 2015 and the actual business separation, which is predictable to be accomplished by the end of 2016.
In connection with conference, Yum! Brands also confirmed its forecast of about flat to low-single-digit positive full-year 2015 EPS growth, not taking into account Special Items; offered an operating profit outlook for 2016; and stated China same-store sales for November, while reaffirming its fourth-quarter China same-store sales guidance.
“We continue to make solid progress on our planned separation into two independent, publicly-traded companies – Yum! Brands and Yum! China – each with compelling growth strategies, distinct investment characteristics, and optimized capital structures,” said Greg Creed, Yum! Brands Chief Executive Officer. We believe this transaction is a classic example of ‘one plus one equaling more than two’ as it will enable each company to realize its full potential and achieve greater value on a standalone basis. By optimizing our capital structure, we will move from a previous growth target model of at least 10% EPS delivered by one company, to building two, strong, independent companies that each have the potential to deliver an estimated 15% annual shareholder return. Additionally, I’m very happy to declare that we intend to return up to $6.2 billion of capital to shareholders before the completion of the separation, reflecting our ongoing commitment to generate raised returns for shareholders while underscoring our confidence in Yum!’s long-term growth prospects and strong financial position.”
