EXHIBIT 99

Restaurant Brands International Inc. Announces

Receipt of Exchange Notice for Approximately 2.8 million Class B Exchangeable Limited Partnership Units and

Intent to Satisfy with Cash on Hand

Miami, August 10, 2026 - Restaurant Brands International Inc. (“RBI” or the “Company”) (NYSE: QSR) (TSX: QSR) announced today that Restaurant Brands International Limited Partnership (“RBI LP”) has received an exchange notice from 3G Restaurant Brands Holdings LP (“RBH”), an affiliate of 3G Capital Partners Ltd. (“3G Capital”), to exchange 2,784,549 Class B exchangeable limited partnership units of RBI LP (the “Exchangeable Units”).

RBI LP intends to satisfy this notice with the repurchase of these Exchangeable Units for cash, using available cash on hand. Once the exchange is settled, the Exchangeable Units will be cancelled, decreasing the fully diluted common shares of RBI by the same number of Exchangeable Units. On an as adjusted basis after giving effect to the exchange, RBH will hold approximately 21% of RBI’s fully diluted common shares.

The exchange date is scheduled to occur on August 31, 2026, and the repurchase of Exchangeable Units for cash will be based on the 20-day volume weighted average price of the Company’s common shares traded on the NYSE in US dollars, in accordance with the terms of the limited partnership agreement of RBI LP. The exchange notice is irrevocable.
