BaiSheng Catering continues to evaluate Pizza Hut.

Yum Brands is seeking to split its Pizza Hut division, focusing on Taco Bell and KFC. Company executives said in the fourth quarter earnings call that the evaluation is ongoing as planned. The company hopes to complete the assessment of various options this year. Pizza Hut's same-store sales grew by 1% in international markets, but declined by 3% in the US market. Yum Brands is providing marketing support for the brand and will be closing some stores.
