Results for 2009 reaffirmed our consistent record of success with 13 percent Earnings Per Share (EPS) growth, which marks the eighth straight year we delivered at least 13% growth and exceeded our 10% EPS growth target. For the full year 2009, we improved our worldwide restaurant margin by 1.7 percentage points and opened 1,467 new restaurants outside the U.S. We also grew worldwide operating profit by 9% prior to foreign currency translation, including growth of 23% in China, 5% in YRI and 1% in the U.S. Importantly, we maintained our Return on Investment Capital (ROIC) of 20% and continued to be an industry leader.
Overall, you can expect that in 2010, Yum! Brands will once again prove we are not your ordinary restaurant company and will continue to WIN BIG around the globe!
