On June 11, Yum China rose 3.18% in regular trading, trading at HK$346.4/share, with trading volume of approximately HK$68.71 million.

On the news front, reports that Yum! Brands is in exclusive negotiations with U.S. private equity firm LongRange Capital to sell its global Pizza Hut business — encompassing approximately 19,000 stores, brand franchise rights, global headquarters, and international supply chain systems — initially raised market concerns. However, sources close to Yum China clarified that Yum China and Yum! Brands are two independently operated companies, and the transaction will not affect Pizza Hut's daily operations in China. Pizza Hut remains one of Yum China's six core brands and a quality asset independently operated within the Chinese market.

Additionally, Yum China continued its share repurchase program on June 9, buying back 70,410 shares on the NYSE at US$42.38–43.00 per share for approximately US$3 million, and 23,150 shares on the HKEX at HK$331.2–335.6 per share for approximately HK$7.74 million. The consistent buyback activity signals management's confidence in the company's intrinsic value.
