The stock is surging and trading higher than the level at which I sold the first half of my position after the company last reported. The restaurants are back. Yum Brands (YUM) is too cheap to ignore here. I added some to my personal account yesterday on top of my already full sized position for client accounts that I accumulated last week at lower prices.

Examining Yum's Tasty Earnings

(closed on 07/30/08)
Yum Brands (YUM) reported its quarterly results after the market closed on Wednesday. The company generated earnings per share of 45 cents on revenues of $2.653 billion and in the process, handily beat analysts’ estimates of 42 cents in EPS and $2.55 billion of revenues. This was quite deceptive, as restaurant level operating margins declined across the board in all regions: China -1.1%; Yum International -1.3%; and, US -2.9%. Increasing commodity costs – food and energy –are eroding the company’s margins. <> I fully expected this to occur and pointed it out on Bloomberg Asia TV when Y...

Yum! management has called China its number-one growth strategy, and expects to have 3,000 stores in the country by year-end. <>To my mind, the fundamentals look tasty enough to take a bite of, regardless of whether it is the “best” play on China or simply a good one. The company has three other growth prongs as well: aggressive international expansion outside China; improving U.S. brand positions, consistency and returns; and driving industry-leading l<><><><><><><>< /><><>< /><>< /><>< /><>< /><>< /><>< /><>< /><>< /><>< />< />...
