Restaurant Brands International Limited Partnership (the Company) intends to share the following information, or portions thereof, with investors.
As disclosed in Note 2 to the Company’s Form 10-Q filed on April 30, 2021 for period ended March 31, 2021, certain prior year amounts in the statement of operations and accompanying segment results have been reclassified in order to be comparable with the current year classifications. These consist of the reclassification of advertising fund contributions from Franchise and property revenues to Advertising revenues and advertising fund expenses from Selling, general and administrative expenses to Advertising expenses, with General and administrative expenses now presented separately. Depreciation and amortization expenses related to the advertising funds have also been reclassified from Franchise and property expenses to Advertising expenses. These reclassifications did not arise as a result of any changes to accounting policies and relate entirely to presentation with no effect on previously reported net income. The following information reflects these reclassifications in the results of operations for each quarter of 2020 and for the full year 2020.
Results of Operations for each quarter of 2020 and full year 2020
Tabular amounts in millions of U.S. dollars unless noted otherwise. Segment income may not calculate exactly due to rounding.
