The same-store sales growth of YUM CHINA (09987.HK)  +4.000 (+1.178%)    Short selling $18.91M; Ratio 17.187%   (YUMC.US)      's KFC and Pizza Hut improved and profit margin expanded, but overall sales were still weaker than expected, dragging down the Company's 1Q25 performance, China Merchants Securities (CMS) issued a research report saying.

Taking into account YUM CHINA's continued solid net store openings throughout the year and Pizza Hut's repositioning in the mass market, the broker expected a potential rebound in revitalized footfall to be a key positive for the Group.
