David C. Novak, Chairman and CEO said, "First quarter results reflect our ongoing progress in growing revenues and earnings in both our international and U.S. businesses. Continued global expansion with outstanding returns led to double-digit increases in international ongoing operating profit, both in U.S. dollars and prior to foreign currency conversion. Each of our U.S. brands posted same-store sales growth, which led to substantially increased restaurant-level margin and 25% ongoing operating profit growth for the U.S. business.

During the quarter, we executed two initiatives that will accelerate two of our long-term revenue-driving strategies: leading the way in multibrand innovation and improving day-to-day restaurant operations. First, we signed a definitive agreement to acquire Long

John Silver's and A&W All-American Food Restaurants to drive multibranding leadership. We have successfully tested combining KFC and Taco Bell with A&W and Long John Silver's and have seen increases in our average unit sales volumes of 20% to 30% and EBITDA of 30% to 50%. The acquisition has the potential to ultimately enable multibranding in 12,000 of our nearly 17,000 traditional U.S. restaurants and be expanded internationally. We are confident multibranding is a key enabler for accelerating the renewal of our existing asset base and adding new units with excellent returns for our shareholders. I am pleased to report the acquisition transition is proceeding smoothly, and we expect the transaction to close within the next few weeks.

Second, we launched our worldwide Customer Mania initiative that we expect will result in improved restaurant operations. We are aligning with our global franchise partners to train our 725,000 team members around the world on delivering a consistent customer experience with a "Yes" attitude. Through Customer Mania training, our team members learn how to better execute our operational basics and are empowered to solve customer problems on the spot.

For the second quarter, we expect to post another set of solid results with ongoing operating earnings per share of $0.83-$0.87. Given our strong start to the year and our optimism for the balance of the year, we are raising our full-year 2002 ongoing operating EPS guidance to $3.63-$3.70 from $3.56-$3.63. We also expect shareholders to approve our company name change to Yum! Brands, Inc. at our annual shareholders meeting on May 16. Our new name will better reflect our expanding portfolio of brands and our unique recognition culture. Everything is in place for 2002 to be an excellent year for Yum! Brands."

Following is an update on Tricon's business segments and key growth drivers, which include global expansion, portfolio of leading U.S. brands, multibranding, franchise fees and cash generation and returns:

  1. Prior to foreign exchange conversion to U.S. dollars.

In the first quarter for Tricon's international business, new-restaurant development was the primary driver of revenue and ongoing operating profit growth. The adoption of SFAS 142, which included the elimination of goodwill amortization, contributed 4 percentage points of ongoing operating profit growth for the quarter. Restaurant margin increased 0.7 percentage points primarily due to the adoption of SFAS 142.

For the full year 2002, the company expects international revenues to grow at a low-double-digit rate and international ongoing operating profit to grow at least 15%. Ongoing operating profit growth includes the impact of foreign currency translation and the favorable impact of the adoption of SFAS 142. Based on current foreign currency rates, the company expects an approximate $9 to $12 million adverse impact of foreign currency conversion on ongoing operating profit for the full year 2002.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

In the first quarter 2002 for Tricon's U.S. portfolio of brands, blended same-store sales at company restaurants increased 5% and consisted of an 8% increase at Taco Bell, a 5% increase at KFC, and a 2% increase at Pizza Hut. Increases in system-wide same-store sales for all brands drove revenue growth of 6% for the quarter. Restaurant margin improved 1.9 percentage points, primarily due to positive same-store sales growth and the adoption of SFAS 142. Ongoing operating profit increased 25% primarily as a result of solid revenue growth. The adoption of SFAS 142 contributed 4 percentage points of ongoing operating profit growth for the quarter.

For the balance of the year, the company expects U.S. portfolio blended same-store sales to grow at least 2%.

WORLDWIDE NEW-RESTAURANT DEVELOPMENT

Worldwide net restaurant growth of 2%, versus first quarter 2001, was primarily driven by the company's four high-growth international markets - China, Mexico, Korea and the U.K. - as well as solid growth by international franchisees. Versus first quarter 2001, net restaurant growth was 35% in China, 15% in Mexico and Korea, and 7% in the U.K.

One point not reflected, which primarily affects U.S. net restaurant growth statistics, is the impact of multibranding on our U.S. restaurant system. Multibrand conversions, while increasing the sales and points of distribution for the added brand, result in no additional unit counts. Though no additional unit counts are realized, these conversions drive significant increases in same-store sales and result in upgraded, new-image restaurants for the U.S. business. Similarly, a newly opened multibrand unit, while increasing sales and points of distribution for two brands, results in just one additional unit count.

For 2002, we expect 5% to 6% net growth in international restaurants and no net change in the U.S. This forecast excludes licensed locations.

MULTIBRANDING

---------------------------------------------------
                                                Q1
                                             ------
System-wide Multibrand Net Additions            37
Total System-wide Multibrand Restaurants     1,566
---------------------------------------------------

In the quarter, U.S. net additions totaled 35 and international 2. In the U.S., company and franchise net additions were 14 and 21 respectively. About 50% of the U.S. multibrand net additions represented conversions of existing single-brand restaurants, and 50% represented new-restaurant openings. Additionally, at the beginning of the second quarter, we opened our first multibranded restaurant with Back Yard Burgers, a conversion of a single-brand Taco Bell to a Taco Bell/Back Yard Burgers multibrand in Shepherdsville, Kentucky. Testing with Back Yard Burgers will continue with additional multibranded openings scheduled for the second quarter.

For 2002, Tricon continues to expect to add at least 325 company and franchise multibranded restaurants through new-restaurant openings and conversions of existing restaurants. About 60% of these additions are expected to be conversions of single-brand restaurants to mulitbrands and 40% are expected to be new multibrand restaurants.

CASH GENERATED AND RETURN ON INVESTED CAPITAL

-----------------------------------------------------------
($ millions)                                         Q1
                                                  ---------
Cash Generated                                     $281
  Capital Spending and Acquisitions                $132

  Return on Invested Capital                        NM
-----------------------------------------------------------

Cash generated for the first quarter continued to more than fund capital spending for worldwide restaurant growth and restaurant asset upgrades. The first quarter included $46 million of after-tax employee stock-option proceeds and $17 million of after-tax refranchising proceeds.

For 2002, the company expects to generate nearly $1.2 billion in cash, including $200 million in proceeds from stock-option exercises and $65 million from after-tax refranchising proceeds prior to capital spending of an estimated $750 million.

SECOND-QUARTER 2002 OUTLOOK

The company expects to earn $0.83 to $0.87 in ongoing operating EPS. This includes the impact of the acquisition of Yorkshire Global Restaurants (YGR) during the quarter. We are expecting this to impact our financial results for one four-week period, Period 6, in the second quarter.

Projected factors contributing to the company's EPS expectations are . . .

YEAR 2002 OUTLOOK

Tricon now expects ongoing operating EPS of between $3.63 and $3.70 for the full year. Our previous guidance was $3.56 to $3.63 of ongoing operating EPS.

APRIL (PERIOD 4) SALES

Estimated U.S. portfolio blended same-store sales at company restaurants increased 2% during the four-week period ended April 20, 2002 (Period 4). For the comparable four-week period, U.S. same-store sales increased 9% at Taco Bell and 1% at KFC and decreased 3% at Pizza Hut.

For Period 4, International system sales increased 17% prior to foreign currency conversion or 12% after conversion to U.S. dollars. Year-to-date international system sales increased 11% prior to foreign currency conversion or 6% after conversion to U.S. dollars.

Same-store sales results for Period 5, 2002 (primarily the latter half of April and first half of May for the U.S. businesses), will be released Thursday, May 23, 2002.

  5. In the first quarter 2002, unusual items income of $11 million primarily resulted from recoveries related to the AmeriServe bankruptcy reorganization process.

    In the first quarter 2001, unusual items expense of $2 million primarily included costs of defending certain wage and hour litigation.

  6. Effective December 30, 2001, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS 142") in its entirety. In accordance with the requirements of SFAS 142, we completed separate transitional impairment tests of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles, as of December 30, 2001, which indicated that there was no impairment. In addition, we ceased amortization of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles. The following table summarizes the favorable effect of SFAS 142 on restaurant margin and ongoing operating profit had SFAS 142 been effective in the first quarter of 2001:
    
                                   U.S.          International       Unallocated       Worldwide
                               -------------   ----------------    --------------   ----------------
    Restaurant profit          $     4         $        2          $       -        $     6
                               =============   ================    ==============   ================
    Restaurant margin (%)          0.5 ppts.          0.5 ppts.            -            0.5 ppts.
    Ongoing operating profit   $     4         $        3          $       -        $     7
                               =============   ================    ==============   ================
    

    Additionally, if SFAS 142 had been effective for the first quarter of 2001, reported net income and ongoing operating EPS would have increased by approximately $5 million and $0.03, respectively.
