Restaurant Brands International (RBI) currently trades at a cheaper valuation and offers a higher dividend yield compared to Yum! Brands, making it more attractive for retirement-focused investors. RBI's forward P/E is 14x versus Yum's 24x, and it has a stronger income proposition with a higher dividend yield and a larger capital return plan. While Yum! Brands has delivered stronger long-term growth driven by Taco Bell and KFC, its higher valuation and leveraged balance sheet pose risks. RBI's consistent 8% organic operating income growth and recent share price gains suggest it is closing the valuation gap. Investors prioritizing income and value should favor RBI, while growth-focused investors might prefer Yum! for its expansion potential.
