Yum China (YUMC) GM Wang Warton Exercises Options, Sells Shares

What Happened

  • Wang Warton, General Manager of KFC at Yum China (YUMC), had a recent grant and conversion of derivative awards. On 2026-02-06 he received a grant of 20,708 derivative shares (award). On 2026-02-08 he converted/exercised 6,047 derivative units into common shares. As part of the transaction, 2,722 shares were withheld to satisfy tax withholding at $57.95 per share, totaling $157,740. The filing shows the conversion on a one-for-one basis and includes a derivative disposition line for 6,047 shares (reported at $0).

Context

  • This appears to be a conversion/settlement of derivative awards (exercise/conversion) with shares withheld to cover tax obligations — a common, routine, cashless-like settlement rather than an open-market sale of additional shares. The new 20,708-share award is subject to multi-year vesting, so most of it remains unvested.
