Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Plan Participants and Plan Administrator
YUM! Brands 401(k) Plan:
Opinion on the Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of YUM! Brands 401(k) Plan (the Plan) as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2023, and the related notes (collectively, the financial statements). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2023 and 2022, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2023, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Plan in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Accompanying Supplemental Information
The Schedule H, line 4i - Schedule of Assets (Held at End of Year) as of December 31, 2023 has been subjected to audit procedures performed in conjunction with the audit of the Plan’s financial statements. The supplemental information is the responsibility of the Plan’s management. Our audit procedures included determining whether the supplemental information reconciles to the financial statements or the underlying accounting and other records, as applicable, and performing procedures to test the completeness and accuracy of the information presented in the supplemental information. In forming our opinion on the supplemental information, we evaluated whether the supplemental information, including its form and content, is presented in conformity with the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. In our opinion, the supplemental information is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole.

YUM! BRANDS 401(k) PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2023 and 2022
(Tabular amounts in thousands)
(1) Plan Description
The following description of the YUM! Brands 401(k) Plan (the "Plan") provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan document for a more complete description of the Plan’s provisions.
(a)General
YUM! Brands, Inc. (the "Company") adopted the Plan effective October 7, 1997. Any employee within a group or class so designated by the Plan document is eligible to participate in the Plan. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA").
The investments of the Plan are maintained in a trust (the "Trust") by State Street Bank and Trust Company (the "Trustee") who has been appointed as Trustee by the Plan. The Trustee is responsible for the management and control of the Plan’s assets. Voya Institutional Plan Services, LLC serves as record keeper for the Plan.
(b)Contributions
Each participant in the Plan may elect to contribute up to 75% of eligible pay, as defined in the Plan document. The maximum pre-tax annual contribution allowed for calendar year 2023 was $22,500.
Eligible participants receive a matching contribution from the Company that is equal to 100% of such salary deferral contribution that does not exceed 6% of the participant’s eligible pay. Participants direct the investment of contributions into various investment options offered by the Plan. The Company may also make discretionary contributions to the Plan. To the extent necessary in a year to satisfy IRS nondiscrimination tests that apply to its qualified plans, YUM! Brands will make nonelective contributions for that year to a business classification of nonhighly compensated employees who have a least one year of service and are employed on the last day of that year. YUM! Brands made nonelective contributions of approximately $23,000 in 2023 relating to IRS nondiscrimination tests for 2022. There were no other discretionary contributions made by the Company during the calendar year 2023.
The Plan allows eligible participants to make additional tax-deferred contributions. Participants eligible to make additional tax-deferred contributions must be 50 years or older by the end of the calendar year in which they want to make the additional tax-deferred contribution. These contributions are made in the same manner as salary deferral contributions and are deposited in the participant’s salary deferral account. These contributions are not subject to the eligible earnings limitation as defined by the Plan. Thus, a participant can contribute more than their eligible earnings of pay to the extent needed to make an additional tax-deferred contribution. The 2023 annual Internal Revenue Code ("IRC") limit on these contributions was $7,500. Participants may also elect to make after-tax contributions pursuant to Code Section 402A ("Roth Contributions"). Eligible participants can make additional Roth Contributions in addition to the additional tax-deferred contributions described above. Roth Contributions shall be considered for and shall be eligible for matching contributions as described above. The contribution limits noted above include both pre-tax and Roth Contributions in total.
(c)Investment Options
Participants may elect to invest their account balances in any of the available investment options provided by the Plan. Participants may change their investments on any business day, subject to certain limitations outlined in the Plan. Included in the investment option is a self-directed brokerage account that allows participants to invest in a broad range of individual stocks, exchange traded funds and mutual funds.
(d)Participant Accounts
Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s contribution and allocations of: a) the Company’s contribution and b) Plan earnings, and charged with an allocation of administrative expenses. Allocations of Plan earnings and administrative expenses are based on participant earnings or account balances, as defined by the Plan. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit that can be provided from the participant’s account.

December 31, 2023 and 2022
(Tabular amounts in thousands)
(e)Loans to Participants
The Plan has a loan program for participants. The maximum amount a participant may borrow, when aggregated with all other outstanding loans of the participant, is the lesser of: a) 50% of the participant’s vested interest under the Plan; b) $50,000 reduced by the excess of the highest outstanding loan balance during the preceding one-year period ending on the day prior to the date the loan was made, over the outstanding balance of loans on the date the loan was made; c) 100% of the value of the participant’s investment in certain funds; or d) the maximum loan amount that can be amortized by the participant’s net pay. Participants may elect repayment periods from one year to four years at six-month intervals. For new loans, only one loan may be outstanding at any time. For loans originating prior to January 1, 2022, participants could have up to two loans outstanding. The fixed interest rate for loans is based on the prime rate as of the last day of the month before the loan request plus 1%. A one-time loan origination fee is charged to those participants who obtain a loan. Interest on loans is allocated to each of the funds based upon the participant’s investment election percentages. For each month or part thereof the loan remains outstanding, the borrowing participant may be assessed a monthly administration fee. Generally, any loans outstanding shall become immediately due and payable in full if the participant’s employment is terminated. Principal and interest is paid ratably through monthly payroll deductions.
Loans are secured by the balance in the participant’s account. Outstanding loans bear interest at rates that range from 4.25% to 9.50% with maturity dates ranging from 2024 to 2028 as of December 31, 2023.
As a result of Plan mergers, the Plan will occasionally hold transferred participant loans through their original settlement period, and such transferred loans may have different terms than noted above.
(f)Vesting
Participants are fully vested in the entire value of their accounts upon contribution, including the Company matching contribution.
(g)Payment of Benefits
Distributions under the Plan are generally made upon a participant’s death, disability, retirement, hardship or termination of employment. Benefit payments are made in the form of a lump sum cash amount or in kind distribution. An in kind distribution is limited to the Participant’s interest in the Company’s Common Stock and certain securities held in the Self-directed Brokerage Account.
(h)Termination
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to terminate the Plan, subject to the provisions of ERISA and the IRC.
(2) Summary of Accounting Policies
(a)Basis of Accounting
The financial statements of the Plan are prepared under the accrual method of accounting.
(b)Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and changes in net assets available for benefits, and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
(c)Investment Valuation and Income Recognition
5
YUM! BRANDS 401(k) PLAN
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2023 and 2022
(Tabular amounts in thousands)
Investment Valuation
Investments are presented at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company's Investment Committee determines the Plan's investment policy utilizing information provided by the investment advisers, including the appointment of investment managers, and the monitoring of the performance of the Plan's investment funds. See Note 3 for discussion of fair value measurements.
Income Recognition
Income from investments and interest income are recorded as earned on an accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Net appreciation (depreciation) includes the Plan's gains and losses on investments bought and sold as well as held during the year.
(d)Participant Loan Valuation
Participant loans are recorded at amortized cost which represents unpaid principal plus accrued interest.
(e)Payment of Benefits
The Plan accounts for participant distributions when paid.
(f)Administrative Costs
Certain expenses of the Plan may be paid in whole or in part by the Company. Any expenses not paid by the Company will be paid by the Trustee with assets of the Trust. In 2023 and 2022, all expenses were borne by the Company, except for monthly investment management service fees, loan application fees charged to participants who obtained a loan, transaction and monthly access fees charged to participants within the Self-directed Brokerage Account, certain monthly recordkeeping fees paid to Voya Institutional Plan Services, LLC, certain monthly custodial fees paid to State Street Bank and Trust Company and fees paid for peer-group analysis and benchmarking of the Plan's target date funds.
(3) Fair Value Measurements
Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 820 defines fair value and establishes a framework for measuring fair value. The framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are described below:
Level 1 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are quoted prices available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date;
Level 2 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are observable inputs, other than those included in Level 1, based on quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in inactive markets, or financial instruments for which all significant inputs are observable; either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3 - Inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable inputs in situations where there is little or no market activity for the asset or liability and the reporting entity makes estimates and assumptions related to the pricing of the asset or liability including assumptions regarding risk.
A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

(Tabular amounts in thousands)
Accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. require plan management to evaluate tax positions taken by the Plan. The financial statement effects of uncertain tax positions are recognized when the Plan has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would be sustained upon examination by the IRS. The Plan administrator has analyzed the tax positions taken by the Plan and has concluded that as of December 31, 2023, there are no uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken. The Plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress.

(6) Related Party Transactions and Parties in Interest Transactions
Certain Plan investments are shares of common/commingled trusts managed by an affiliate of the Trustee. Transactions involving these investments, the YUM! Stock Fund and fees paid to the Trustee qualify as exempt party-in-interest transactions. Such fees paid by the Plan were not material to either of the years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

(7)Risks and Uncertainties
The Plan invests in various investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks and uncertainties such as interest rate, market, and credit risks, as well as economic changes, political unrest and regulatory changes. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect participants’ account balances and the amounts reported in the statements of net assets available for benefits. Approximately 18% and 21% of net assets available for benefits are invested in the Company’s Common Stock at December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
(8)Subsequent Events
The Plan has evaluated subsequent events through June 24, 2024, the date of this filing and the date these financial statements were issued and available. There were no subsequent events to disclose that would have a material impact on these financial statements.
