Yum sees China sales rebound in 4th quarter


NEW YORK: KFC parent Yum Brands Inc said it expects sales growth to resume at its established restaurants in China this quarter, after a surprisingly steep August decline following a food safety scare and a bird flu outbreak in its most important market.

Yum on Friday estimated a 10 percent drop in China same-restaurant sales for August, versus the 7.7 percent decline expected by analysts polled by Consensus Metrix.
