Restaurant Brands International has a lower forward P/E ratio of 14x compared to Yum! Brands' 24x, indicating better valuation. RBI also has a lower EV/revenue ratio of 4.4x versus Yum's 6.8x. Yum's negative shareholders' equity poses balance sheet risks. In terms of income, RBI's dividend yield is more favorable, targeting $2.60 per share compared to Yum's $3.00 per share.
