Emerging growth company  ☐

If an emerging growth company, indicate by check mark if the registrant has elected not to use the extended transition period for complying with any new or revised financial accounting standards provided pursuant to Section 13(a) of the Exchange Act.  ☐

In connection with the previously-announced plans of Yum China Holdings, Inc. (the “Company” or “Yum China”) to integrate the businesses of Pizza Hut Casual Dining and Pizza Hut Home Service, beginning with the quarter ended May 31, 2017, the two businesses will be combined and reported together as the Pizza Hut reportable segment.  The new reporting structure, which reflects how management now reviews and evaluates operating performance, is designed to drive greater brand focus, enabling Yum China to create synergies of the two Pizza Hut concepts and accelerate growth.

Accordingly, the Company’s earnings release and quarterly report for the quarter ended May 31, 2017 will reflect two reportable segments: KFC, which remains unchanged, and Pizza Hut. The Company also has three non-reportable segments: East Dawning, Little Sheep and Taco Bell, which are combined and referred to as All Other Segments, as these operating segments are insignificant both individually and in the aggregate.  Prior periods will be adjusted accordingly.

Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K provides a summary of the Company’s annual segment operating results for 2015 and 2016 as well as the quarterly segment operating results for 2016 and the first quarter of 2017 as if they had been reported under this new reportable segment structure, and should be read in conjunction with the Company’s previously filed reports. Consolidated results remain unchanged.

In addition, consistent with the reclassification made in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated and Combined Financial Statements for the quarter ended February 28, 2017, certain comparative items in the Recast Segment Operating Results have been reclassified to facilitate comparison with future periods.
