This is because the largest part of other revenue is money received from YUM to act as master franchise holder for Pizza Hut in New Zealand. And this is a revenue stream that will be ongoing
2014: $18.863m / $330.399m = 5.7%
2015: $22.523m / $372.803m = 6.0%
2016: $24.207m / $404.095m = 6.0%
2017: $30.567m / $517.549m = 5.9%
2018: $40.361m / $766.289m = 5.3%
Conclusion: Fail Test
Reprising the 'Achillies heal' from the Restaurant Brands result from last year: net profit margin.

The profit margin hasn't got any worse, which is a positive. But it hasn't got any better either. Our Russel has given an object lesson in how to reduce profit margins.
Conclusion: Fail Test

PS Not tempted to top up at today's close of $8.65 either!
