Across its top 20 institutional holders, YUM's holder base skews toward low-concentration, low-turnover investors on average (avg. concentration score 6/100, avg. turnover score 38/100).
YUM ranks #258 out of 37696 tracked stocks by institutional interest — one of the most closely watched names in our coverage.

Wealth Enhancement Advisory Services, LLC has trimmed its YUM position for two straight quarters, cutting it by $8.4M while still holding $21.3M.

YUM does not currently show a 13F-and-insider convergence signal — its insider confidence score is 0/100, below the threshold this product uses to flag combined buying pressure.
13F data as of 2026-09-30 quarterly filings. Note: many large institutions file close to the 45-day post-quarter deadline, so early-quarter flow figures can shift substantially as more filings arrive.

View Full Filing (SEC EDGAR)Yum! Brands disclosed on August 20, 2026 that its Board appointed Steve Bratspies as a new director, effective August 26, 2026, and he'll stand for election by shareholders at the company's next Annual Meeting. For now, he hasn't been assigned to any board committees. His pay follows the standard package for non-employee directors: a one-time stock grant worth $25,000 on August 27, plus a prorated portion of the annual stock retainer. The company added that his selection involved no arrangement or understanding with any other person.
View Full Filing (SEC EDGAR)YUM! Brands filed an amendment to its earlier 8-K to update Kathleen Oberg's board committee assignment after she joined the board. She initially wasn't placed on any standing committee; on May 13, 2026, the board appointed her to the Audit Committee, effective immediately. This is a routine governance update rather than a major leadership or compensation event.
View Full Filing (SEC EDGAR)Yum! Brands disclosed that on August 7, 2026, its subsidiary YRICF signed an amended and restated master license agreement with Yum China's operating subsidiary YCCL, following the completion of a so-called "China Transaction" (whose terms aren't detailed in this excerpt). The amended deal strips out Pizza Hut references and any future Pizza Hut royalties in mainland China, while for KFC and Taco Bell it gives YCCL a shot at incentives tied to KFC system-sales growth over the next 12 years and sets up a framework for Taco Bell's long-term expansion in the PRC. Yum China also issued a guaranty backing YCCL's payment and other obligations under the agreement.
View Full Filing (SEC EDGAR)Yum! Brands put out its quarterly earnings press release on July 30, 2026, covering the three months ended June 30, 2026. This 8-K simply attaches that release as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporates it by reference — a standard way of making the results official. No actual revenue or profit numbers show up in this excerpt, so there's nothing here to judge performance on.
