Noncontrolling Interests
The holders of Partnership exchangeable units held an economic interest of approximately 22.8% and 24.0% in Partnership common equity through the ownership of 102,926,279 and 109,356,545 Partnership exchangeable units as of September 30, 2026 and December 31, 2025, respectively.
Pursuant to exchange notices received, Partnership exchanged 6,430,266 Partnership exchangeable units during the nine months ended September 30, 2026. In accordance with the applicable terms of the partnership agreement, Partnership satisfied the exchange notices by repurchasing 2,784,549 Partnership exchangeable units for approximately $214 million in cash and exchanging 3,645,717 Partnership exchangeable units for the same number of newly issued RBI common shares. Each such Partnership exchangeable unit was cancelled upon the settlement of the exchange. The exchanges represented increases in our ownership interest in Partnership and were accounted for as equity transactions, with no gain or loss recorded in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations.
Share Repurchases
On August 6, 2025, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program authorizing the repurchase of up to $1,000 million of our common shares from September 15, 2025 through September 30, 2027. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2026, we repurchased 817,041 and 3,101,650 of our common shares for $61 million and $232 million, respectively, excluding excise taxes. Of these repurchases, 28,010 common shares had not yet settled as of September 30, 2026 and therefore were not cancelled at that date. Repurchased shares are cancelled upon settlement. As of September 30, 2026, we had $768 million remaining under the share repurchase authorization.
