YUMC Stock Recent News

Yum China (YUMC) reported earnings 30 days ago. What's next for the stock?

ByRussell Flannery,

Yum China reported strong 1Q25 results with better-than-expected same-store sales growth and restaurant margins, aided by temporary and permanent store closures. We are positive on YUMC's consistent execution amid China's weak macro backdrop, expecting continued menu innovation and unique store concepts to drive traffic. KCOFFEE's 20% y/y growth and PH's WOW concept are key drivers, expanding YUMC's market presence and offering value-oriented options for consumers.

YUMC's first-quarter 2025 results are aided by increased same-store transactions.
