Note 1 – Description of the Business

 

Yum China Holdings, Inc. (“Yum China” and, together with its subsidiaries, the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our”) was incorporated in Delaware on April 1, 2016. The Company separated from Yum! Brands, Inc. (“YUM” or the “Parent”) on October 31, 2016 (the “separation”), becoming an independent publicly traded company as a result of a pro rata distribution (the “distribution”) of all outstanding shares of Yum China common stock to shareholders of YUM. On October 31, 2016, YUM’s shareholders of record as of 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on October 19, 2016 received one share of Yum China common stock for every one share of YUM common stock held as of the record date. Yum China’s common stock began trading “regular way” under the ticker symbol “YUMC” on the New York Stock Exchange on November 1, 2016.

 

The Company owns, franchises or has an ownership in entities that own and operate restaurants under the KFC, Pizza Hut, East Dawning, Little Sheep, and Taco Bell and COFFii & JOY concepts (collectively, the “Concepts”). In connection with the separation of the Company from YUM, Yum! Restaurants Asia Pte. Ltd., a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of YUM, and Yum Restaurants Consulting (Shanghai) Company Limited (“YCCL”), a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Yum China, entered into a 50-year master license agreement with automatic renewals for additional consecutive renewal terms of 50 years each, subject only to YCCL being in “good standing” and unless YCCL gives notice of its intent not to renew, for the exclusive right to use and sub-license the use of intellectual property owned by YUM and its subsidiaries for the development and operation of the KFC, Pizza Hut and, subject to achieving certain agreed-upon milestones, Taco Bell brands and their related marks and other intellectual property rights for restaurant services in the People’s Republic of China (the “PRC” or “China”), excluding Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macau (the “PRC” or “China”).Macau. In exchange, we pay a license fee to YUM equal to 3% of net system sales from both our Company and franchise restaurants.

We own the intellectual property of East Dawning, and Little Sheep intellectual propertyand COFFii & JOY and pay no license fee related to these concepts.Concepts.

 

The Company also owns a controlling interest in the holding company of DAOJIA.com.cn (“Daojia”), an established online food delivery service provider in China.

In addition, the Company started a new e-commerce business in 2017, offering a wide selection of products including electronics, home and kitchen accessories, and other general merchandise to customers directly through the Company’s e-commerce platform.

Note 2 – Basis of Presentation

In connection with our separation from YUM, the direct and indirect equity interests of all of our operating subsidiaries and intermediate holding companies were transferred from YUM to Yum China, when Yum China was still one of YUM’s subsidiaries, through a series of transactions, which were completed in August 2016. The Company separated from YUM on October 31, 2016, becoming an independent publicly traded company as a result of a pro rata distribution of all outstanding shares of Yum China common stock to shareholders of YUM.

For periods prior to October 31, 2016, the combined financial statements of YUM’s China businesses and operations when Yum China was a wholly-owned subsidiary of YUM are referred to as Condensed Combined Financial Statements. For periods subsequent to October 31, 2016, the consolidated financial statements of the Company as a separate publicly traded company following its separation from YUM are referred to as Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

Our preparation of the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates.


 

We have prepared the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all normal and recurring adjustments considered necessary to present fairly our financial position as of June 30, 2018, and the2019, results of our operations and comprehensive income for the quarters and years to date ended June 30, 20182019 and 2017,2018, and cash flows for the years to date ended June 30, 20182019 and 2017.2018. Our results of operations, comprehensive income and cash flows for these interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated and Combined Financial Statementsconsolidated financial statements and notes thereto defined and included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on February 27, 2018.2019.

 


Through the acquisition of Daojia during the second quarter ofin 2017, the Company also acquired a variable interest entity (“VIE”) and subsidiaries of the VIE effectively controlled by Daojia. There exists a parent-subsidiary relationship between Daojia and its VIE as a result of certain exclusive agreements that require Daojia to consolidate its VIE and subsidiaries of the VIE because Daojia is the primary beneficiary that possesses the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact its economic performance and has the obligation to absorb substantially all of the profits and all of the expected losses of the VIE. The acquired VIE and its subsidiaries were considered immaterial, both individually and in the aggregate. The results of Daojia’s operations have been included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements since the acquisition date.

 

During the first quarter of 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of an additional 36% equity interest in an unconsolidated affiliate that operates KFC stores in Wuxi, China (“Wuxi KFC”), for cash consideration of approximately $98 million, increasing the Company’s equity interest to 83%, allowing the Company to consolidate the entity. The acquisition was considered immaterial. We began consolidating Wuxi KFC upon the completion of acquisition.

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In May 2014,February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“ASC 606”2016-02” or “ASC 842”), to provide principles within a single framework for revenue recognition of transactions involving contracts with customers across all industries.which increases transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. The standard allows for either a full retrospective or modified retrospective transition method. In March, April and May 2016, the FASB subsequently issued the following amendments to clarify the implementation guidance: ASU No. 2016-04, Liabilities-Extinguishments of liabilities (Subtopic 450-20): Revenue of Breakage for Certain Prepaid Stored-Value Products (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force), ASU No. 2016-08, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Principal versus Agent Considerations (Reporting Revenue Gross versus Net), ASU No. 2016-10 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing and ASU No. 2016-12, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606): Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients.guidance. The Company adopted these standards on January 1, 2018, and applied the full2019, using a modified retrospective approach.

The new standard did not have an impact on our recognition of revenue from Company-owned restaurantsmethod for leases that exist at, or our recognition of continuing fees from franchisees and unconsolidated affiliates; however, it changed the way we account for upfront fees. Upfront fees, such as initial and renewal fees from franchisees and unconsolidated affiliates, were previously recognized as revenue when we performed substantially all initial services required by the franchise agreement, generally upon the opening of a store or when a renewal agreement with a franchisee became effective. We now recognize the upfront fees from franchisees and unconsolidated affiliates as revenue over the term of each franchise agreement as the franchise rights are accounted for as rights to access our symbolic intellectual property in accordance with the new standard. Any unamortized portion of fees received is accounted for as a contract liability.

The new standard also had an impact on certain transactions we entered into with franchiseesafter, January 1, 2019, and unconsolidated affiliates, such as sales of food and paper products and advertising services. These transactions were previously eitherhas not included orrecast the comparative periods presented on a net basis in our statements of income or cash flows based on industry-specific guidance included in previous accounting guidance, which was superseded by the new standard. Under the new standard, we consider ourselves the principal in these arrangements as we have the ability to control a promised good or service before transferring that good or service to the customer. Therefore, we include such transactions in revenues and expenses on the Condensed Consolidated StatementsFinancial Statements. Additionally, we elected the package of Income with no significantpractical expedients that allowed us to not reassess: (1) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (2) lease classification for any expired or existing leases and (3) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases. We also elected the hindsight practical expedient to determine the reasonably certain lease term for existing leases.

Upon the adoption of ASC 842, the Company recognized right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities of approximately $2.0 billion and $2.2 billion, respectively, for operating leases of the land and/or building of our restaurants and office spaces based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. In addition, an impairment charge of $60 million (net of related impact on deferred taxes and noncontrolling interests) on ROU assets arising from existing operating leases as of January 1, 2019 was recorded as an adjustment to Net income.retained earnings, as the additional impairment charge would have been recorded before adoption had the operating lease ROU assets been recognized at the time of impairment.

In August 2016,February 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, Statement2018-02, Reclassification of Cash Flows (Topic 230) Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (“ASU 2016-15”2018-02”), which provides clarification regarding how certain cash receipts.

ASU 2016-152018-02 is effective for annual and interim periods beginning after December 15, 2017,the Company from January 1, 2019, with early adoption permitted. We adopted ASU 2016-15the standard on January 1, 2018,2019, and such adoption did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

 

In October 2016,June 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-16, Income Taxes2018-07, Compensation – Stock Compensation (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory718) Improvements to Nonemployee Share-Based Payment Accounting (“ASU 2016-16”2018-07”), which requires.

Certain comparativeprior period items in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation to facilitate comparison.

Our fiscal year ends on December 31. Effective at the beginning of fiscal year 2018, the Company changed its fiscal calendar from two months in the first quarter, three months in the second and third quarters and four months in the fourth quarter, to four three-month quarters ending on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year.

Company Sales

 

Revenues from Company-owned restaurants are recognized when a customer takes possession of the food and tenders payment, which is when our obligation to perform is satisfied. The Company presents sales net of sales-related taxes. We also offer our customers delivery through both our own mobile applications and third-party aggregators’ platforms. For delivery orders placed through our mobile applications, we use our dedicated riders, while for orders placed through third-party aggregators’ platforms, we use our dedicated riders, or, in limited cases, third-party aggregators’ delivery staff. With respect to delivery orders delivered by our dedicated riders, we control and determine the price for the delivery service and generally recognize revenue, including delivery fees, when a customer takes possession of the food. When orders are fulfilled by the delivery staff of third-party aggregators, who control and determine the price for the delivery service, we recognize revenue, excluding delivery fees, when control of the food is transferred to the third-party aggregators’ delivery staff. The payment terms with respect to these sales are short-term in nature.

We recognize revenues from prepaid stored-value products, including gift cards and product vouchers, when they are redeemed by the customer. Prepaid gift cards sold at any given point generally expire over the next 36 months, and product vouchers generally expire over a period of up to 12 months. We recognize breakage revenue, which is the amount of prepaid stored-value products that is not expected to be redeemed, either (1) proportionally in earnings as redemptions occur, in situations where the Company expects to be entitled to a breakage amount, or (2) when the likelihood of redemption is remote, in situations where the Company does not expect to be entitled to breakage, provided that there is no requirement for remitting balances to government agencies under unclaimed property laws. The Company reviews its breakage estimates at least annually based upon the latest available information regarding redemption and expiration patterns.

 

Our privilege membership program offers privilege members benefits, such as free delivery and discounts on coffee or breakfast items. The associated membership fees are recognized ratably over the membership period.

Franchise Fees and Income

 

Franchise fees and income primarily include upfront fees, such as initial fees and renewal fees, and continuing fees. We have determined that the services we provide in exchange for upfront fees and continuing fees are highly interrelated with the franchise right. We recognize upfront fees received from a franchisee as revenue over the term of the franchise agreement or the renewal agreement because the franchise rights are accounted for as rights to access our symbolic intellectual property in accordance with ASC 606. The franchise agreement term is generally 10 years for KFC and Pizza Hut, and five or 10 years for Little Sheep.We recognize continuing fees, which are based upon a percentage of franchisee sales, as those sales occur.

 

Revenues from Transactions with Franchisees and Unconsolidated Affiliates

 

Revenues from transactions with franchisees and unconsolidated affiliates consist primarily of sales of food and paper products, advertising services and other services provided to franchisees and unconsolidated affiliates.

 


The Company centrally purchases substantially all food and paper products from suppliers for substantially all of our restaurants, including franchisees and unconsolidated affiliates, and then sells and delivers them to the restaurants. The performance obligation arising from such transactions is considered distinct from the franchise agreement as it is not highly dependent on the franchise agreement and the customer can benefit from the procurement service on its own. We consider ourselves the principal in this arrangement as we have the ability to control a promised good or service before transferring that good or service to the franchisees and unconsolidated affiliates. Revenue is recognized upon transfer of control over ordered items, generally upon delivery to the franchisees and unconsolidated affiliates.

 

For advertising services, the Company often engages third parties to provide services and acts as a principal in the transaction based on our responsibilities of defining the nature of the services and administering and directing all marketing and advertising programs in


accordance with the provisions of our franchise agreements. The Company collects advertising contributions, which are generally based on a certain percentage of sales from substantially all of our restaurants, including franchisees and unconsolidated affiliates. Other services provided to franchisees and unconsolidated affiliates consist primarily of customer support and technology support services. Advertising services and other services provided are highly interrelated to franchise right, so we doand are not consider them to beconsidered individually distinct and therefore account for them under ASC 606 as a single performance obligation anddistinct. We recognize revenue when the related sales occur.

 

Loyalty Programs

Each of the Company’s KFC and Pizza Hut reportable segments operates a loyalty program that allows registered members to earn points for each qualifying purchase. Points, which generally expire 18 months after being earned, may be redeemed for future purchases of KFC or Pizza Hut branded products or other products for free or at a discounted price. Points cannot be redeemed or exchanged for cash. The estimated value of points earned by the loyalty program members is recorded as a reduction of revenue at the time the points are earned, based on the percentage of points that are projected to be redeemed, with a corresponding deferred revenue liability included in Accounts payable and other current liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and subsequently recognized into revenue when the points are redeemed.redeemed or expire. The Company estimates the value of the future redemption obligations based on the estimated value of the product for which points are expected to be redeemed and historical redemption patterns, including an estimate of the breakage for points that members will never redeem. The Company reviews its breakage estimates at least annuallyperiodically based upon the latest available information regarding redemption and expiration patterns.

As COFFii & JOY and our e-commerce business became operating segments starting from the first quarter of 2019, revenue by segment information for prior quarters has been recast to align with the change in segment reporting. Additional details on our reportable segments are included in Note 13.


Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable mainly consist of trade receivables and royalties from franchisees and unconsolidated affiliates, and are generally due within 30 days of the period in which the corresponding sales occur and are classified as Accounts receivable on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Our provision for uncollectible receivable balances is based upon pre-defined aging criteria or upon the occurrence of other events that indicate that we may not collect the balance due. Additionally, we monitor the financial condition of our franchisees and record provisions for estimated losses on receivables when we believe it is probable that our franchisees will be unable to make their required payments. While we use the best information available in making our determination, the ultimate recovery of recorded receivables is also dependent upon future economic events and other conditions that may be beyond our control. Trade receivables that are ultimately deemed to be uncollectible, and for which collection efforts have been exhausted, are written off against the allowance for doubtful accounts.

Costs to Obtain Contracts

Costs to obtain contracts represent the portionconsist of upfront license fees that we paid to YUM prior to the separation in relation to initial fees or renewal fees we received from franchisees and unconsolidated affiliates.affiliates, as well as license fees that are payable to YUM in relation to our deferred revenue of prepaid stored-value products and customer loyalty programs. They meet the requirements to be capitalized as they are incremental costs of obtaining contracts with customers and the Company expects to generate future economic benefits from such costs incurred, which allow us to enter into franchise agreements and collect fees.incurred. Such costs to obtain contracts are included in Other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and are amortized overon a systematic basis that is consistent with the termtransfer to the customer of the franchise agreement.goods or services to which the assets relate. Subsequent to the separation, we are no longer required to pay YUM any upfrontinitial or renewal fees that we receive from franchisees and unconsolidated affiliates. The Company did not incur any impairment losses related to costs to obtain contracts during any of the periods presented. Costs to obtain contracts were $9 million and $12$8 million at June 30, 20182019 and December 31, 2017,2018, respectively.

Contract liabilities consist of deferred revenue related to prepaid stored-value products, customer loyalty programs and upfront fees. Deferred revenue related to prepaid stored-value products and customer loyalty programs is included in Accounts payable and other current liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Deferred revenue related to upfront fees that we expect to recognize as revenue in the next 12 months is included in Accounts payable and other current liabilities, and the remaining balance is included in


Other liabilities and deferred credits on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Revenue recognized in the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2018 that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of each period amounted to $36 million and $18 million for the quarter ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and $48 million and $30 million for the years to date ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Changes in contract liability balances were not materially impacted by business acquisition, change in estimate of transaction price or any other factors during any of the periods presented.

 


The Company has elected, as a practical expedient, not to disclose the value of remaining performance obligations associated with sales-based royalty promised to franchisees in exchange for franchise right and other related services. The remaining duration of the performance obligation is the remaining contractual term of each franchise agreement. We recognize continuing franchisee fees and revenues from advertising services and other services provided to franchisees and unconsolidated affiliates based on a certain percentage of sales, as those sales occur.

(a)

As a result of the separation, shares of Yum China common stock were distributed to YUM’s shareholders of record as of October 19, 2016 and included in the calculated weighted-average common shares outstanding. Holders of outstanding YUM equity awards generally received both adjusted YUM awards and Yum China awards, or adjusted awards on shares of common stock of either YUM or Yum China in their entirety. Any subsequent exercise of these awards, whether held by the Company’s employees or YUM’s employees, would increase the number of common shares outstanding. The outstanding equity awards are included in the computation of diluted EPS, if there is dilutive effect.

 

(b)

Pursuant to the investment agreements dated September 1, 2016, Yum China issued to strategic investors two tranches of warrants on January 9, 2017, with each tranche initially providing the right to purchase 8,200,405 shares of Yum China common stock, at an exercise price of $31.40 and $39.25 per share, respectively, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. The warrants may be exercised at any time through October 31, 2021. The outstanding warrants are included in the computation of diluted EPS, if there is dilutive effect when the average market price of Yum China common stock for the period exceeds the exercise price of the warrants.

 

(c)

These outstanding employee stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock units and warrantsperformance share units were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because to do so would have been antidilutive for the quarters and years to date presented.

In the first quarter of 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of Wuxi KFC. In connection with the acquisition, the Company also recognized a gain of $98 million from the re-measurement of our previously held 47% equity interest at fair value using discounted cash flow valuation approach and incorporating assumptions and estimates that were not observable in the market. Key assumptions used in estimating future cash flows included projected revenue growth and operating expenses, which were based on internal projections, historical performance of stores and the business environment, as well as the selection of an appropriate discount rate based on weighted-average cost of capital and company-specific risk premium. The gain was not allocated to any segment for performance reporting purposes.

Meituan Dianping (“Meituan”) Investment

In the third quarter of 2018, the Company subscribed for 8.4 million, or less than 1%, of the ordinary shares of Meituan, an e-commerce platform for services in China, for a total consideration of approximately $74 million, when it launched its initial public offering on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange in September 2018. The Company accounted for the equity securities at fair value with subsequent fair value changes recorded in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The fair value of the investment in Meituan is determined based on the closing market price for the shares at the end of each reporting period. As of June 30, 2019, the fair value of the investment was $74 million. The unrealized gain of $17 million and $27 million was included in Investment gain in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income during the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2019, respectively.

Restaurant-Level Impairment Charge

We performed an additional impairment evaluation of long-lived assets of restaurants as a result of adopting ASC 842 and recorded an incremental restaurant-level impairment charge of $12 million in the first quarter of 2019. In the second quarter of 2019, we performed our semi-annual impairment evaluation and recorded a $7 million restaurant-level impairment charge. The restaurant-level impairment charge recorded in the second quarter of 2018 was $13 million. See Note 11 for additional information.

Transition Tax

We completed the evaluation of the impact on our transition tax computation based on the final regulations that were released by the U.S. Treasury Department and the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) and became effective in the first quarter of 2019, and recorded an additional amount of $8 million for the transition tax accordingly. See Note 12 for additional information.

IncreaseChanges in gross carrying amount include the effect of reacquired franchise rightscurrency translation adjustment.

(b)

Decrease in Others during the year to date ended June 30, 20182019 is primarily resulted fromdue to the acquisitionreclassification of Wuxi KFC.favorable lease assets, with a gross carrying amount of $7 million and accumulated amortization of $5 million, to right-of-use assets upon adoption of ASC 842.

 

Amortization expense of definite-lived intangible assets was $7$4 million and $3$7 million for the quarters ended June 30, 20182019 and 2017,2018, respectively, and $13$10 million and $6$13 million for the years to date ended June 30, 20182019 and 2017,2018, respectively. As of June 30, 2018,2019, expected amortization expense for the unamortized definite-lived intangible assets is approximately $14$7 million for the remainder of 2018, $20 million in 2019, $15$13 million in 2020, $15$13 million in 2021, and $15$13 million in 2022.2022 and $3 million in 2023.

Note 10 – Leases

As of June 30, 2019, we operated more than 8,700 restaurants, leasing the underlying land and/or building. We generally enter into lease agreements with initial terms of 10 to 20 years. Most of our lease agreements contain termination options that permit us to terminate the lease agreement early if the restaurant’s unit contribution is negative for a specified period of time. We generally do not have renewal options for our leases. Such options are accounted for only when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise the options. The rent under the majority of our current restaurant lease agreements is generally payable in one of three ways: (i) fixed rent; (ii) the higher of a fixed base rent or a percentage of the restaurant’s sales revenue; or (iii) a percentage of the restaurant’s sales revenue. Most leases require us to pay common area maintenance fees for the leased property. In addition to restaurants leases, we also lease office spaces, logistics centers and equipment. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.


Prior to the adoption of ASC 842, operating leases were not recognized on the balance sheet of the Company, but rent expenses were recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Upon adoption, right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recognized upon lease commencement for operating leases based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. This is consistent with the historical recognition of finance leases, which was unchanged upon adoption of ASC 842. Variable lease payments that do not depend on a rate or index are expensed as incurred. The Company has elected not to recognize right-of-use assets or lease liabilities for leases with an initial term of 12 months or less; we recognize lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. In addition, the Company has elected not to separate non-lease components (e.g., common area maintenance fees) from the lease components.

In limited cases, we sublease certain restaurants to franchisees in connection with refranchising transactions or lease our properties to other third parties. The lease payments under these leases are generally based on the higher of a fixed base rent or a percentage of the restaurant’s annual sales revenue. Income from sublease agreements with franchisees or lease agreements with other third parties are included in Franchise fees and income and Other revenue, respectively, within our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The impact of ASC 842 on our accounting as a lessor was not significant.

As most of our leases do not provide an implicit rate, we use our incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the imputed interest and present value of lease payments. We used the incremental borrowing rate on January 1, 2019 for operating leases that commenced prior to that date.


As of June 30, 2019, we have additional lease agreements that have been signed but not yet commenced of $106 million. These leases will commence between the third quarter of 2019 and 2023 with lease terms of 1 year to 20 years.

Note 1011 – Fair Value Measurements

As of June 30, 2018, the carrying values

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities primarily consist of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, accounts receivable and accounts payable, approximatedand the carrying values of these assets and liabilities generally approximate their fair valuesvalue.

The Company accounts for its investment in the equity securities of Meituan at fair value, which is determined based on the closing market price for the shares at the end of each reporting period, with subsequent fair value changes recorded in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.


The following table is a summary of our financial assets measured on a recurring basis or disclosed at fair value and the level within the fair value hierarchy in which the measurement falls. The Company classifies its cash equivalents, short-term investments and investment in equity securities within Level 1 or Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy because ofit uses quoted market prices or alternative pricing sources and models utilizing market observable inputs to determine their fair value. No transfers among the short-term nature of these instruments.levels within the fair value hierarchy occurred during the quarter ended June 30, 2019.

Non-Recurring Fair Value Measurements

In addition, certain of the Company’s restaurant-level assets such as(including operating lease ROU assets, property, plant and equipment,equipment), goodwill and intangible assets, are measured at fair value based on Level 3 on a non-recurring basis, if determined to be impaired. In the determination of fair value of restaurant level assets, the Company considered the highest and best use of the assets and used unobservable inputs (Level 3), such as reasonable sales growth and margin improvement assumptions in generating after-tax cash flows or the price market participants would pay to sublease the ROU assets for other use.

During


The following table presents amounts recognized from all non-recurring fair value measurements using Level 3 inputs during the quarterquarters and yearyears to date ended June 30, 2018, we recorded restaurant-level impairment (Level 3) of $13 million2019 and $13 million, respectively. During the quarter and year to date ended June 30, 2017, we recorded restaurant-level impairment (Level 3) of $16 million and $19 million, respectively. The remaining net book value of the assets measured at2018. These amounts exclude fair value as of June 30, 2018, subsequentmeasurements made for restaurants that were closed or refranchised prior to these impairments, was not significant.those respective period-end dates.

(a)

ROU impairment prior to the adoption of ASC 842 represents an impairment charge on operating lease ROU assets arising from existing operating leases as of January 1, 2019. After netting with the related impact on deferred taxes of $19 million and the impact on noncontrolling interests of $3 million, we recorded a cumulative adjustment of $60 million to retained earnings in accordance with the transition guidance for the new lease standard. For those restaurants under operating leases with full impairment on their long-lived assets (primarily property, plant and equipment) before January 1, 2019, an additional impairment charge would have been recorded before January 1, 2019 had the operating lease ROU assets been recognized at the time of impairment.

(b)

Reflect incremental restaurant-level impairment upon adoption of ASC 842 in the first quarter of 2019. We performed an additional impairment evaluation of long-lived assets of restaurants, which includes operating lease ROU assets, and property, plant and equipment.

(c)

Restaurant-level impairment changes resulted primarily from our semi-annual impairment evaluation of long-lived assets of individual restaurants that were being operated at the time of impairment and had not been offered for refranchising.

The higherlower effective tax rate for the quarter was primarily due to less excesslower accrued tax benefit driven byon Global Intangible Low Taxed Income (“GILTI”), non-taxable gain related to our investment in equity securities of Meituan and lower foreign withholding tax on the exercise of share-based awards, offset by less estimated repatriation of current year earnings outside of China. The lower year-to-dateyear to date effective tax rate was primarily due to less estimated repatriationlower accrued tax on GILTI and non-taxable gain related to our investment in equity securities of current year earnings outsideMeituan, partially offset by the additional adjustment of China.$8 million on transition tax pursuant to the Tax Act recorded in the first quarter of 2019.

 

In December 2017, the U.S. enacted the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”), which included a broad range of tax reforms, including, but not limited to, the establishment of a flat corporate income tax rate of 21%, the elimination or reduction of certain business deductions and the imposition of tax on deemed repatriation of accumulated undistributed foreign earnings. The Tax Act impacted Yum China in two material aspects: (1) in general, all of the foreign-source dividends received by Yum China from its foreign subsidiaries will beare exempted from taxation starting from the tax year beginning after December 31, 2017 and (2) Yum China recorded additional income tax expense in the fourth quarter of 2017, including an estimated one-time transition tax on its deemed repatriation of accumulated undistributed foreign earnings and additional tax related to the revaluation of certain deferred tax assets.


We completed our analysis of the Tax Act in the fourth quarter of 2018 according to guidance released by the U.S. Treasury Department and the IRS as of December 2018 and made a reversal to provisional amount in the amount of $36 million for the transition tax recorded in 2017 accordingly. The U.S. Treasury Department and the IRS released the final transition tax regulations on January 15, 2019, which were published in the Federal Register and became effective on February 5, 2019. We completed the evaluation of the impact on our transition tax computation based on the final regulations released in the first quarter of 2019 and recorded an additional amount of $8 million for the transition tax accordingly.

 

The Tax Act requires a U.S. shareholder to be subject to tax on Global Intangible Low Taxed Income (GILTI) earned by certain foreign subsidiaries. The Company has not determined its accounting policy with respect to whether to record deferred taxes for basis differences expected to reverse as a result of the GILTI provisions in future periods or use the period cost method. We have however, includedelected the 2018 estimate ofoption to account for current year GILTI tax as a period cost as incurred, and therefore included as part ofit in estimating the estimated annual effective tax rate.

 

As we collect and prepare necessary data, and interpret the Tax Act and any additional guidance issued by the U.S. Treasury Department, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), and other standard-setting bodies, we may make adjustments to the provisional amounts. We continue to expect to complete our analysis within the measurement period not exceeding one year from the enactment date.Note 13 –Segment Reporting

Note 12 – Reportable Operating Segments

We have two reportable segments: KFC and Pizza Hut. We also have fourStarting from the first quarter of 2019, our newly developed COFFii & JOY concept and e-commerce business became operating segments, as their financial results started being regularly reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker. Accordingly, our six non-reportable operating segments, reflecting the operations of East Dawning, Little Sheep, Taco Bell, Daojia, COFFii & JOY and Daojia, whichour e-commerce business, are combined and referred to as All Other Segments, as thesethose operating segments are insignificant both individually and in the aggregate. Segment financial information for prior quarters has been recast to align with this change in segment reporting. There was no impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Company as a result of this change.

Note 1314 – Contingencies 

 

Indemnification of China Tax on Indirect Transfers of Assets

 

In February 2015, the Chinese State Taxation Administration of Taxation (“SAT”STA”) issued Bulletin 7 on Income arising from Indirect Transfers of Assets by Non-Resident Enterprises. Pursuant to Bulletin 7, an “indirect transfer” of Chinese taxable assets, including equity interests in a Chinese resident enterprise, by a non-resident enterprise, may be recharacterized and treated as a direct transfer of Chinese taxable assets, if such arrangement does not have reasonable commercial purpose and the transferor has avoided payment of Chinese enterprise income tax. As a result, gains derived from such an indirect transfer may be subject to Chinese enterprise income tax at a rate of 10%.

 

YUM concluded and we concurred that it is more likely than not that YUM will not be subject to this tax with respect to the distribution. However, given how recently Bulletin 7 was promulgated, there are significant uncertainties regarding what constitutes a reasonable commercial purpose, how the safe harbor provisions for group restructurings are to be interpreted and how the taxing authorities will ultimately view the distribution. As a result, YUM’s position could be challenged by Chinese tax authorities resulting in a 10% tax assessed on the difference between the fair market value and the tax basis of the separated China business. As YUM’s tax basis in the China business is minimal, the amount of such tax could be significant.

 

Any tax liability arising from the application of Bulletin 7 to the distribution is expected to be settled in accordance with the tax matters agreement between the Company and YUM. Pursuant to the tax matters agreement, to the extent any Chinese indirect transfer tax pursuant to Bulletin 7 is imposed, such tax and related losses will be allocated between YUM and the Company in proportion to their respective share of the combined market capitalization of YUM and the Company during the 30 trading days after the separation. Such a settlement could be significant and have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and our financial condition. At the inception of the tax indemnity being provided to YUM, the fair value of the non-contingent obligation to stand ready to perform was insignificant and the liability for the contingent obligation to make payment was not probable or estimable.


Guarantees

From time to time we have guaranteed certain lines of credit and loans of franchisees and unconsolidated affiliates. As of June 30, 2018,2019, we have provided guarantees of approximately $2$1 million on behalf of franchisees and no guarantees were outstanding for unconsolidated affiliates.  

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company is subject to various lawsuits covering a variety of allegations. The Company believes that the ultimate liability, if any, in excess of amounts already provided for these matters in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, is not likely to have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial condition or cash flows. Matters faced by the Company from time to time include, but are not limited to, claims from landlords, employees, customers and others related to operational, contractual or employment issues.

Note 1415 – Subsequent Events

 

On August 1, 2018,July 30, 2019, the Company announced that the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.10$0.12 per share, on Yum China’s common stock, payable as of the close of business on September 19, 2018,17, 2019 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 29, 2018. Total27, 2019. The total estimated cash dividend payable is approximately $38$46 million.

 

On August 1, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement for an offshore credit facility of $100 million. This credit facility has a term of three years and bears interest based on the prevailing rate stipulated by the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) administered by the ICE Benchmark Administration. As of the date of this report, the full amount of borrowing was available to us under this credit facility.

Introduction

Yum China Holdings, Inc. is the largest restaurant company in China, with over 8,1008,700 restaurants as of June 30, 2018.2019. Our growing restaurant base consists of China’s leading restaurant brands and concepts, primarily the KFC and Pizza Hut brands, as well as brands such as East Dawning, Little Sheep, Taco Bell and Taco Bell.COFFii & JOY. Following our separation from YUM, we have hadobtained the exclusive right to operate and sub-license the KFC, Pizza Hut and, subject to achieving certain agreed-upon milestones, Taco Bell brands in China, excluding Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macau (the “PRC” or “China”), and we own the intellectual property of the East Dawning, and Little Sheep marksand COFFii & JOY concepts outright. We were the first major global restaurant brand when we entered China in 1987 and we have developed deep operating experience in the market. We have since grown to become one of China’s largest restaurant developers with locations in over 1,2001,300 cities as of June 30, 2018.2019.

KFC is the leading Quick-Service Restaurantquick-service restaurant (“QSR”) brand in the PRC in terms of system sales and number of restaurants. As of June 30, 2018,2019, KFC operated over 5,6006,100 restaurants in over 1,2001,300 cities across China. Measured by number of restaurants, we believe KFC has aan approximate two-to-one lead over the nearest Western QSR competitor in China, and KFC has continued to grow in both large and small cities. During the first quarter of 2018, the Company completed the acquisition of an additional 36% interest in an unconsolidated affiliate that operates KFC stores in Wuxi, China (“Wuxi KFC”), increasing the equity interest to 83% and allowing the Company to consolidate the entity.

During the second quarter of 2017, we integrated the business of

Pizza Hut Casual Dining and Pizza Hut Home Service as Pizza Hut. Segment financial information for prior periods has been recast to align with this change in segment reporting. After the integration, Pizza Hut continues to beis the leading Casual Dining Restaurantcasual dining restaurant (“CDR”) brand in China as measured byin terms of system sales and number of restaurants. As of June 30, 2019, Pizza Hut operated over 2,200 restaurants in over 500 cities. We believe Pizza Hut has aan approximate four-to-one lead in terms of number of restaurants over its nearest Western CDR competitor in China. As of June 30, 2018, Pizza Hut operated over 2,200 restaurants in over 500 cities.

Separation from YUM

The Company separated from YUM on October 31, 2016, becoming an independent publicly traded company as a result of a pro rata distribution of all outstanding shares of Yum China common stock to shareholders of YUM. On October 31, 2016, YUM’s shareholders of record as of 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on October 19, 2016 received one share of Yum China common stock for every one share of YUM common stock held as of the record date. Yum China’s common stock began trading “regular way” under the ticker symbol “YUMC” on the New York Stock Exchange on November 1, 2016.  

 

Overview

We intend for this MD&A to provide the reader with information that will assist in understanding our results of operations, including metrics that management uses to assess the Company’s performance.  Throughout this MD&A, we discuss the following performance metrics:

The Company provides certain percentage changes excluding the impact of foreign currency translation (“F/X”).  These amounts are derived by translating current year results at prior year average exchange rates.  We believe the elimination of the F/X impact provides better year-to-year comparability without the distortion of foreign currency fluctuations.

The Company provides certain percentage changes excluding the impact of foreign currency translation (“F/X”).  These amounts are derived by translating current year results at prior year average exchange rates.  We believe the elimination of the F/X impact provides better year-to-year comparability without the distortion of foreign currency fluctuations.

System sales growth reflects the results of all restaurants regardless of ownership, including Company-owned, franchise and unconsolidated affiliate restaurants that operate our Concepts, except for non-Company-owned restaurants for which we do not receive a sales-based royalty.  Sales of franchise and unconsolidated affiliate restaurants typically generate ongoing franchise fees for the Company at a rate of approximately 6% of system sales.  Franchise and unconsolidated affiliate restaurant sales are not included in Company sales on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income; however, the franchise fees are included in the Company’s revenues.  We believe system sales growth is useful to investors as a significant indicator of the overall strength of our business as it incorporates all of our revenue drivers, Company and franchise same-store sales as well as net unit growth.

Effective January 1, 2018, the Company revised its definition of same-store sales growth to represent the estimated percentage change in sales of food of all restaurants in the Company system that have been open prior to the first day of our prior fiscal year. We refer to these as our “base” stores. Previously, same-store sales growth represented the estimated percentage change in sales of all restaurants in the Company system that have been open for one year or more, and the base stores changed on a rolling basis from month to month. This revision was made to align with how management measures performance internally and focuses on trends of a more stable base of stores.

This revision was made to align with how management measures performance internally and focuses on trends of a more stable base of stores. Prior periods have been adjusted accordingly.

Company Restaurant profit (“Restaurant profit”) is defined as Company sales less expenses incurred directly by our Company-owned restaurants in generating Company sales.  Company restaurant margin percentage is defined as Restaurant profit divided by Company sales.  Within the Company sales and Restaurant profit analysis, Store Portfolio Actions represent the net impact of new unit openings, acquisitions, refranchising and store closures, and Other primarily represents the impact of same-store sales as well as the impact of changes in restaurant operating costs such as inflation/deflation.

In addition to the results provided in accordance with GAAP throughout this MD&A, the Company provides measures adjusted for Special Items, which include Adjusted Operating Profit, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Earnings Per Common Share, Adjusted Effective Tax Rate and Adjusted EBITDA, which we define as net income including noncontrolling interests adjusted for income tax, interest income, net, investment gain or loss, depreciation and amortization, and other items, including store impairment charges and Special Items. The Special Item for the year to date ended June 30, 2019 represents the impact from the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”). The Special Item for the year to date ended June 30, 2018 represents a gain recognized from the re-measurement of our previously held equity interest in Wuxi KFC at fair value upon acquisition, as described in Note 2. The Company excludes impact from Special Items for the purpose of evaluating performance internally. Special Items are not included in any of our segment results. In addition, the Company provides Adjusted EBITDA because we believe that investors and analysts may find it useful in measuring operating performance without regard to items such as income tax, interest income, net, investment gain or loss, depreciation and amortization, and other items, including store impairment charges and Special Items. These adjusted measures are not intended to replace the presentation of our financial results in accordance with GAAP. Rather, the Company believes that the presentation of these adjusted measures provides additional information to investors to facilitate the comparison of past and present results, excluding those items that the Company does not believe are indicative of our ongoing operations due to their nature.

Tabular amounts are displayed in millions of U.S. dollars except percentages and per share and unit count amounts, or as otherwise specifically identified. Percentages may not recompute due to rounding. References to quarters are references to the Company’s fiscal quarters.

Effective at the beginning of fiscal 2018, the Company changed its fiscal calendar from two months in the first quarter, three months in the second and third quarters and four months in the fourth quarter, to four three-month quarters ending on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year. Prior periods have been recast as if they had been reported under the new fiscal calendar.

As of June 30, 2018,2019, the Company operated over 8,1008,700 units, predominately KFC and Pizza Hut restaurants, which are the leading QSR and CDR brand, respectively, in mainland China. Given our strong competitive position, a growing economy and a population of approximately 1.4 billion in mainland China, the Company has rapidly added KFC and Pizza Hut restaurants.  

 

As compared to the second quarter of 2017,2018, Company sales in the second quarter of 20182019 increased 13%2%, or 6%9% if excluding the impact of F/X. The increase in Company sales during the quarter, excluding the impact of F/X, was driven by net unit growth, partially offset by same-store sales decline. Company sales for the year to date ended June 30, 20182019 increased 15%3%, or 6%10% if excluding the impact of F/X. The quarter and year to date increase in Company sales, excluding the impact of F/X, was driven by net unit growth and same-store sales growth.


 

The decrease in Restaurant profit for the quarter excluding the impact of F/X, was driven by higher promotion and product upgrade costs and wage inflation, partially offset by net unit growth.

(a)

As a result of the acquisition of Wuxi KFC in the first quarter of 2018, as disclosed in Note 2, the Company recognized a gain of $98 million from the re-measurement of our previously held 47% equity interest at fair value, which was not allocated to any segment for performance reporting purposes. (See Note 2)

(b)

The tax expense was determined based upon the nature, as well as the jurisdiction, of each Special Item at the applicable tax rate.

(c)

We completed the evaluation of the impact on our transition tax computation based on the final regulations that were released by the U.S. Treasury Department and the IRS and became effective in the first quarter of 2019, and recorded an additional amount of $8 million for the transition tax accordingly.

The quarter and year to date increasesincrease in Company sales and Restaurant profit, associated with store portfolio actions, excluding the impact of F/X, werewas primarily driven by net unit growth. Significant other factors impacting Company sales and Restaurant profit were the Company same-store sales growth, net unit growth and lower depreciation expenses, partially offset by commodity inflation of 5%, higher labor costs mainly due to wage inflation of 6% and higher promotion costs.

 

Franchise Fees and Income

The quarter and year to date decreasesincrease in Franchise fees and income excluding the impact of F/X, were primarily driven by the acquisition of Wuxi KFC, partially offset by same-store sales growth of unconsolidated affiliates and net unit growth.

G&A Expenses

The quarter and year to date increases in G&A expenses, excluding the impact of F/X, were primarily driven by higher compensation costs due to merit increases.

Operating Profit

The quarter and year to date increases in Operating Profit, excluding the impact of F/X, were primarily driven by the Company same-store sales growth and net unit growth, partially offset by higher restaurant operating costs and higher G&A expenses.

G&A Expenses

The increase in G&A expenses for the quarter, excluding the impact of F/X, was primarily driven by higher compensation costs due to higher performance-based compensation and merit increases, partially offset by lower cost allocation reflecting reduced development activities.

Revenues from Transactions with Franchisees and Unconsolidated Affiliates

The increase in Revenues from transactions with franchisees and unconsolidated affiliates for the quarter, excluding the impact of F/X, was mainly driven by system sales growth of franchisees and unconsolidated affiliates, and an increase in the selling prices of food and paper products due to commodity inflation.

The year to date decreasesincrease in Revenues from transactions with franchisees and unconsolidated affiliates, excluding the impact of F/X, were primarilywas mainly driven by the acquisition of Wuxi KFC, partially offset by system sales growth of franchisees and unconsolidated affiliates and franchisees.an increase in the selling prices of food and paper products due to commodity inflation, partially offset by the impact from the acquisition of Wuxi KFC.

G&A Expenses

Interest

Other Unallocated Income Net

The quarter and year to date increasesdecrease in Other unallocated income, excluding the impact of F/X, was primarily due to a gain of $98 million recognized from the re-measurement of our previously held equity interest income, net were driven by higher returns on larger balancesin Wuxi KFC at fair value upon acquisition in the first quarter of short-term investments and time deposits.2018.

Investment Gain

The Investment gain represents the unrealized gain related to our investment in equity securities of Meituan Dianping (“Meituan”). See Note 6.


Income Tax Provision

Our income tax provision includes tax on our earnings at the Chinese statutory tax rate of 25%, a 10% withholding tax on repatriation of earnings outside of China and U.S. corporate income tax, if any. Our effective tax rate was 26.0%20.0% and 24.3%26.0% for the quarters ended June 30, 20182019 and 2017,2018, respectively, and 26.4%25.2% and 27.9%26.4% for the yearyears to date ended June 30, 20182019 and 2017,2018, respectively. The higherlower effective tax rate for the quarter was primarily due to less excesslower accrued tax benefit driven by the exerciseon GILTI, non-taxable gain related to our investment in equity securities of share-based awards recognized, offset by lessMeituan and lower foreign withholding tax on estimated repatriation of current year earnings outside of China. The lower year-to-dateyear to date effective tax rate was primarily due to less estimated repatriationlower accrued tax on GILTI and non-taxable gain related to our investment in equity securities of current year earnings outsideMeituan, partially offset by the additional adjustment of China.$8 million on transition tax pursuant to the Tax Act recorded in the first quarter of 2019.

Significant Known Events, Trends or Uncertainties Expected to Impact Future Results

 

The Tax Act

In December 2017, the U.S. enacted the Tax Act, which included a broad range of tax reforms, including, but not limited to, the establishment of a flat corporate income tax rate of 21%, the elimination or reduction of certain business deductions and the imposition of tax on deemed repatriation of accumulated undistributed foreign earnings. The Tax Act has impacted Yum China in two material aspects: (i) all of the foreign-source dividends received by Yum China from its foreign subsidiaries will be exempted from taxation starting from the tax year beginning after December 31, 2017 and (ii) Yum China recorded, in the fourth quarter of 2017, an additional income tax expense of $163.9 million, which includes an estimated one-time transition tax of $129.8 million on the deemed repatriation of accumulated undistributed foreign earnings, $4.5 million primarily related to the re-measurement of certain deferred tax assets based on the rates at which they are expected to reverse in the future, and the valuation allowance of $29.6 million for certain deferred tax assets.


The Tax Act requires complex computations with significant estimates to be performed, significant judgments to be made in interpretation of the provisions, and the preparation and analysis of information not previously relevant or regularly produced. The U.S. Treasury Department, the IRS, the SEC and other standard-setting bodies could interpret or issue guidance on how provisions of the Tax Act will be applied or otherwise administered that is different from our current interpretation. As we complete our analysis of the Tax Act, collect and prepare necessary data, and interpret any additional guidance, we may make adjustments to provisional amounts that we have recorded that may materially impact our provision for income taxes in the period in which the adjustments are made. We expect to complete our analysis within the measurement period not exceeding one year from the enactment date.

Tax Examination on Transfer Pricing

We are subject to reviews, examinations and audits by Chinese tax authorities, the IRS and other taxing authorities with respect to income and non-income based taxes. Currently we are under a national audit on transfer pricing by the SATSTA in China regarding our related party transactions for the period from 2006 to 2015. It is reasonably possible that there could be significant developments within the next 12 months. The ultimate assessment will depend upon further review of the information provided and ongoing discussions with the SATSTA and in-charge local tax authorities, and therefore it is not possible to reasonably estimate the potential impact. We will continue to defend our transfer pricing position. However, if the SATSTA prevails in the assessment of additional tax due based on its ruling, the assessed tax, interest and penalties, if any, could have a material adverse impact on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

PRC Value-Added Tax (“VAT”)

 

Effective May 1, 2016, the Chinese government implemented reform to its retail tax structure, which is intended to be a progressive and positive shift to more closely align with a more modern service-based economy. Under this reform, a 6% output VAT replaced the 5% business tax (“BT”) previously applied to certain restaurant sales. VAT rateswas imposed on goods and services includedat the rates of 17%, 13%, 11% and 6%. Input VAT would be creditable to the aforementioned 6% output VAT. Effective from July 1, 2017, the 13% VAT rate primarily applicable to certain agricultural products was reduced to 11%. Effective from May 1, 2018, the VAT rates of 17% and 11% were lowered to 16% and 10%, respectively. Effective from April 1, 2019, the VAT rates of 16% and 10% were further lowered to 13% and 9%, respectively. These rate changes impact our input VAT on all materials and certain services, mainly including construction, transportation and leasing. However, the impact on our operating results is not expected to be significant.

Entities that are VAT general taxpayers are permitted to offset qualified input VAT paid to suppliers against their output VAT upon receipt of appropriate supplier VAT invoices on an entity-by-entity basis. When the output VAT exceeds the input VAT, the difference is remitted to tax authorities, usually on a monthly basis; whereas when the input VAT exceeds the output VAT, the difference is treated as an input VAT credit asset which can be carried forward indefinitely to offset future net VAT payables. VAT related to purchases and sales which have not been settled at the balance sheet date is disclosed separately as an asset and liability, respectively, on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. At each balance sheet date, the Company reviews the outstanding balance of any input VAT credit asset for recoverability based on its forecasted operating results. We evaluate the recoverability of the net VAT credit asset based on our estimated operating results and capital spending, which inherently includes significant assumptions that are subject to change.  


As of June 30, 2018,2019, an input VAT credit asset of $197$243 million and payable of $10$7 million were recorded in Other assets and Accounts payable and other current liabilities, respectively, on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company has not made an allowance for the recoverability of the input VAT credit asset, as the balance is expected to be utilized to offset against net VAT payables more than one year from June 30, 2018.2019. Any input VAT credit asset would be classified as Prepaid expenses and other current assets if the Company expected to use the credit within one year.

 

We have been benefiting from the retail tax structure reform since it was implemented on May 1, 2016. However, the amount of our expected benefit from this VAT regime depends on a number of factors, some of which are outside of our control. The interpretation and application of the new VAT regime are not settled at some local governmental levels. In addition, the timetable for enacting the prevailing VAT regulations into national VAT law, including ultimate enacted VAT rates, is not clear. As a result, for the foreseeable future, the benefit of this significant and complex VAT reform has the potential to fluctuate from quarter to quarter.

 

Effective from July 1, 2017, the 13% VAT rate primarily applicable to certain agricultural products was reduced to 11%.  Effective from May 1, 2018, the VAT rates of 17% and 11% were lowered to 16% and 10%, respectively.  These rate changes impact our input VAT on all materials and certain services, mainly including construction, transportation and leasing. However, the impact on our operating results is not expected to be significant.


Foreign Currency Exchange Rate

 

The reporting currency of the Company is the US$. Most of the revenues, costs, assets and liabilities of the Company are denominated in Chinese Renminbi (“RMB”). Any significant change in the exchange rate between US$ and RMB may materially affect the Company’s business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition, depending on the weakening or strengthening of RMB against the US$. See “Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” for further discussion.

Consolidated Cash Flows

 

Our cash flows for the years to date ended June 30, 20182019 and 20172018 were as follows:

Net cash provided by operating activities was $657 million in 2019 as compared to $819 million in 2018 as compared to $604 million in 2017.2018. The increasedecrease was primarily driven by higher Net income and timing of payments for inventory.

Net cash used in investing activities was $368 million in 2019 as compared to $406 million in 2018 as compared to $465 million in 2017.2018. The decrease was primarily driven byis mainly due to lapping cash inflow generated by short-term investment activities, partially offset byoutflow in 2018 related to the acquisition of Wuxi KFC.KFC, and lower capital expenditures in 2019, partially offset by higher cash outflow related to short-term investment activities in 2019.

Net cash used in financing activities was $259 million in 2019 as compared to $186 million in 2018 as compared to $110 million in 2017.2018.  The increase was primarily driven by an increase in the number of shares repurchased and cash dividends paid to stockholders.stockholders in 2019.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Historically we have funded our operations through cash generated from the operation of our Company-owned stores and from our franchise operations and dividend payments from our unconsolidated affiliates.

 

Our ability to fund our future operations and capital needs will depend on our ongoing ability to generate cash from operations. We believe our principal uses of cash in the future will be primarily to fund our operations and capital expenditures, and any distributions to our stockholders orand share repurchases as well as any acquisition or investment we may make. We believe that our future cash from operations, together with our access to funds on hand and capital markets, will provide adequate resources to fund these uses of cash and that our existing cash and net cash from operations will be sufficient to fund our operations and anticipated capital expenditures for the next 12 months.

 


If our cash flows from operations are less than we require, we may need to access the capital markets to obtain financing. Our access to, and the availability of, financing on acceptable terms and conditions in the future or at all will be impacted by many factors, including, but not limited to:

our financial performance;

our credit ratings;

our financial performance;

the liquidity of the overall capital markets; and

our credit ratings or absence of a credit rating;

the liquidity of the overall capital markets; and

the state of the Chinese, U.S. and global economies.

the state of the Chinese, U.S. and global economies.

 

There can be no assurance particularly as a relatively new company that currently has no credit rating, that we will have access to the capital markets on terms acceptable to us or at all.

 

Generally our income is subject to the Chinese statutory tax rate of 25%. However, to the extent our cash flows from operations exceed our China cash requirements, the excess cash may be subject to an additional 10% withholding tax levied by the Chinese tax authority.authority, subject to any reduction or exemption set forth in relevant tax treaties or tax arrangements.

 


Dividends and Share Repurchases

 

On February 7, 2017, we announced that ourOur Board of Directors has authorized a $300 millionan aggregate of $1.4 billion under our share repurchase program. On October 4, 2017, the Board of Directors increased Yum China’s existing share repurchase authorization from $300 million to an aggregate of $550 million. Yum China may repurchase shares under this program from time to time in open market or privately negotiated transactions, including block trades, accelerated share repurchase transactions and the use of Rule 10b5-1 trading plans. DuringFor the year to date ended June 30, 2018,2019, the Company repurchased $140 million, or 3.5 million shares, of common stock under the repurchase program.The Company repurchased $73 million, or 1.9 million shares, of common stock under the repurchase program.program for the year to date ended June 30, 2018.

For the quarters to date ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, we paid cash dividends of approximately $45 million and $38 million, respectively, to our stockholders through quarterly dividend payments of $0.12 and $0.10 per share, respectively.

On July 30, 2019, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.12 per share, payable as of the close of business on September 17, 2019 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 27, 2019. The total estimated cash dividend payable is approximately $46 million.

Our ability to declare and pay any dividends on our stock may be restricted by applicable Chinese laws. The laws, rules and regulations applicable to our Chinese subsidiaries permit payments of dividends only out of their accumulated profits, if any, determined in accordance with applicable Chinese accounting standards and regulations. Under Chinese law, an enterprise incorporated in China is required to set aside at least 10% of its after-tax profits each year, after making up previous years’ accumulated losses, if any, to fund certain statutory reserve funds, until the aggregate amount of such a fund reaches 50% of its registered capital. As a result, our Chinese subsidiaries are restricted in their ability to transfer a portion of their net assets to us in the form of dividends. At the discretion of the Board of Directors, as an enterprise incorporated in China, each of our Chinese subsidiaries may allocate a portion of its after-tax profits based on Chinese accounting standards to staff welfare and bonus funds. These reserve funds and staff welfare and bonus funds are not distributable as cash dividends.

 

On February 6, 2018, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.10 per share.The cash dividend totaling $39 million was paid to stockholders in March 2018.Borrowing Capacity

 

On May 1, 2018, the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.10 per share.The cash dividend totaling $38 million was paid to stockholders in June 2018.

On August 1, 2018, the Company announced that the Board of Directors declared a cash dividend of $0.10 per share on Yum China’s common stock, payable as of the close of business on September 19, 2018, to stockholders of record as of the close of business on August 29, 2018. Total estimated cash dividend payable is approximately $38 million.

Borrowing Capacity

As of June 30, 2018,2019, the Company had credit facilities of RMB 2,1622,873 million (approximately $327$418 million), includingcomprised of onshore credit facilities of RMB1,500 million (approximately $227$218 million) in the aggregate and an offshore credit facilityfacilities of $100 million.$200 million in the aggregate.


The credit facilities havehad remaining terms ranging fromof one to three years.year or less as of June 30, 2019. Each credit facility bears interest based on the prevailing rate stipulated by the People’s Bank of China or London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) administered by the ICE Benchmark Administration. Each credit facility contains a cross-default provision whereby our failure to make any payment on a principal amount from any credit facility will constitute a default on other credit facilities. Some of the credit facilities contain financial covenants including, among other things, limitations on certain additional indebtedness and liens, and certain other transactions specified in the respective agreement. Interest on any outstanding borrowings is due at least monthly.Some of the onshore credit facilities contain sublimits for overdrafts, non-financial bonding, standby letters of credit and guarantees. As of June 30, 2018,2019, we had outstanding bank guarantees of RMB 70 million (approximately $10 million) to secure our lease payment to landlords for certain Company-owned restaurants. The borrowing capacity under the full amount of borrowingscredit facilities was available to us under each facility.

On August 1, 2018, the Company entered into an agreement for an offshore credit facility of $100 million.

New Accounting Pronouncements

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 2 for details of recently adopted accounting pronouncements.

 


New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (“ASU 2016-02”), which increases transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about leasing arrangements. In July 2018, the FASB issued amendments allowing an optional transition method, which recognizes a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retained earnings in the period of adoption rather than in the earliest period presented as prescribed in ASU 2016-02. We are currently evaluating which transition method we will utilize. We currently plan to use the package of practical expedients that allows us to not reassess: (1) whether any expired or existing contracts are or contain leases, (2) lease classification for any expired or existing leases and (3) initial direct costs for any expired or existing leases. We also plan to elect the hindsight practical expedient to determine the reasonably certain lease term for existing leases. We expect this standard will have a material effect on our financial statements. While we are continuing to assess the effect of adoption, we currently believe the most significant changes relate to the recognition and measurement of right-of-use assets and lease liabilities on our balance sheet for operating leases of the land and/or building of our restaurants and office space. At June 30, 2018, we operated more than 6,600 restaurants, leasing the underlying land and/or building, with our commitments expiring within 20 years from the inception of the lease. The amount of our future minimum lease payments under operating leases was approximately $3 billion as of June 30, 2018. We anticipate continuing to add more restaurants and increase our leasing activity between now and adoption. We are also implementing software to meet the reporting requirements of the new standard, and identifying changes to our business processes and controls to support the adoption of the new standard.

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“(“ASU 2016-13”), which requires measurement and recognition of expected versus incurred credit losses for financial assets held. In November 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-19: Codification Improvements to Topic 326, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses to clarify the implementation guidance. ASU 2016-13 is effective for the Company from January 1, 2020, with early adoption permitted beginning from January 1, 2019. Wepermitted. The adoption of this standard may result in a change of our provision policy primarily for accounts receivable, and we are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of this standard will have on our financial statements.

 

In May 2017,August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-09, Compensation – Stock Compensation2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 718)820): Scope of Modification Accounting (“Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement (“ASU 2017-09”2018-13”), which clarifies that modification accounting is required only ifamended the fair value measurement guidance by modifying the vesting conditions, or the classification of the award (as equity or liability) changes as a result of the changes in terms or conditions.disclosure requirements.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

 

Changes in foreign currency exchange rates impact the translation of our reported foreign currency denominated earnings, cash flows and net investments in foreign operations, virtually all of which are denominated in RMB. While substantially all of our supply purchases are denominated in RMB, from time to time, we enter into agreements at predetermined exchange rates with third parties to purchase certain amount of goods and services sourced overseas and make payments in the corresponding local currencies when practical, to minimize the related foreign currency exposure with immaterial impact on our financial statements.  

 

As substantially all of the Company’s assets are located in China, the Company is exposed to movements in the RMB foreign currency exchange rate. For the quarter ended June 30, 2018,2019, the Company’s Operating Profit would have decreased by approximately $18$20 million if the RMB weakened 10% relative to the US$. This estimated reduction assumes no changes in sales volumes or local currency sales or input prices.

Commodity Price Risk

We are subject to volatility in food costs as a result of market risks associated with commodity prices. Our ability to recover increased costs through higher pricing is, at times, limited by the competitive environment in which we operate. We manage our exposure to this risk primarily through pricing agreements with our vendors.

Investment Risk

In September 2018, we invested $74 million in Meituan’s ordinary shares. The equity investment is recorded at fair value, which is measured on a recurring basis and is subject to market price volatility. See Note 6 for further discussion on our investment in Meituan.

Item 4.
