STAMFORD, CT--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 22, 2024-- Regulatory News:

Philip Morris International Inc. (PMI) (NYSE: PM) today announces its 2024 third-quarter and first nine-months results.1

"In the third quarter, we delivered exceptionally strong performance, with record quarterly net revenues and earnings per share," said Jacek Olczak, Chief Executive Officer.
"This reflects excellent momentum across all regions and categories, with a reacceleration in IQOS adjusted in-market sales growth, strong ZYN volumes, and resilient combustible performance."
"As a result of our strong year-to-date delivery, we are raising our full-year growth outlook for adjusted diluted EPS to a range of 14% to 15%, excluding currency."

Third Quarter Highlights

  • Smoke-free business (SFB): Quarterly shipments of smoke-free products (SFP), available in 92 markets, reached close to 40 billion units. The smoke-free business accounted for 38% of our total net revenues and 40% of gross profit (up by 1.9pp and 2.2pp respectively, versus third-quarter last year), and continues to deliver superior performance, with net revenues increasing by 14.2% (16.8% organically) and gross profit increasing by 15.9% (20.2% organically).
  • Inhalable smoke-free products:IQOS continues strengthening its overall position as the second largest nicotine 'brand' in markets where present (gaining 1.0pp of combined cigarette and HTU industry volumes) and driving the growth of the heat-not-burn category (reaching nearly 77% of global category volumes). HTU adjusted in-market sales (IMS) volume, which excludes the net impact of estimated distributor and wholesaler inventory movements, was up by an estimated 14.8%.
    • In Japan, ILUMA i fueled the growth of IQOS, with adjusted IMS up by 14.3%, the 8th consecutive quarter of double-digit growth. IQOS HTU adjusted market share increased by 3.2pp to nearly 30%, driving the overall category to at least 50% of total nicotine offtake share in 8 major cites, including Tokyo and Yokohama.
    • In Europe, IQOS HTU adjusted market share increased by 0.8pp to 9.5%. Adjusted IMS growth reaccelerated to 11.3%, with Italy recovering well and 8 markets growing in excess of 20%, including Greece and Germany. Our portfolio of IQOS consumables continues to expand with both DELIA and LEVIA now being available in 9 markets each, with further launches planned in Q4.
    • Outside Europe and Japan, adjusted IMS growth accelerated and we grew offtake share in key cities across the globe, including Seoul, Toronto, Mexico City, Cairo, and Jakarta. Our strong growth in Indonesia benefits from the expansion of our geographic reach and consumables portfolio, with premium clove and capsule products.

In the vaping category, our focused strategy is delivering good results with excellent volume momentum and unit cost improvements. Europe is at the forefront, as the closed pod segment continues to take share from disposables. VEEV continues to lead the closed pod segment in several markets, including Italy, Romania, and the Czech Republic.

  • Oral SFP2: Shipment volume increased by 24.7% in cans (22.2% in pouches or pouch equivalents), fueled by ZYN nicotine pouch growth in the U.S., where shipments reached 149.1 million cans, representing growth of 41.4% versus prior year as supply constraints start to ease. Outside the U.S., our nicotine pouch volume in cans grew by nearly 70%, with notable contributions from Pakistan and South Africa. The number of markets with ZYN presence increased to 30, including recent launches in Greece and Czech Republic.
  • Combustibles: Net revenues grew by 5.2% (8.6% organically), driven by another quarter of high single-digit pricing and resilient industry volumes. Both our global brands portfolio and Marlboro achieved their highest quarterly market shares since the 2008 spin-off.
  • Dividend: Increased regular quarterly dividend by 3.8% to $1.35 per share, or an annualized $5.40 per share.

Reported diluted EPS is forecast to be in a range of $6.20 to $6.26, at prevailing exchange rates, versus reported diluted EPS of $5.02 in 2023. Excluding a total 2024 adjustment of $0.25 per share, this forecast represents a projected increase of 7.3% to 8.3% versus adjusted diluted EPS of $6.01 in 2023. Also excluding an adverse currency impact of $0.40, at prevailing exchange rates, this forecast represents a projected increase of 14.0% to 15.0% versus adjusted diluted EPS of $6.01 in 2023, as outlined in the above table.

2024 Full-Year Forecast Assumptions

This forecast assumes:

  • An estimated total international industry volume growth of up to 1% for cigarettes and HTUs, excluding China and the U.S.;
  • Total cigarette, HTU and oral smoke-free product shipment volume growth for PMI of 2% to 3% driven by smoke-free products;
  • HTU adjusted IMS to deliver around 13% growth for the full year, and HTU shipment volumes of around 140 billion units;
  • Nicotine pouch shipment volume in the U.S. of 570 to 580 million cans;
  • Net revenue growth of around 9.5% on an organic basis;
  • Organic operating income growth of 14% to 14.5%;
  • An acceleration in organic smoke-free net revenue and gross profit growth compared to 2023;
  • Broadly unchanged net revenue and adjusted operating loss in the Wellness and Healthcare segment compared to 2023;
  • No earnings impact from the May 15, 2024Fiscal Court in Dusseldorf ruling related to the legality of a supplemental tax surcharge on HTUs in Germany, which went into effect in 2022. On June 19, 2024, a German subsidiary of PMI submitted an appeal;
  • No earnings impact from potential impairments of equity holdings, including potential impairment of PMI's Canadian affiliate, Rothmans, Benson & Hedges Inc.;
  • Full-year amortization of acquired intangibles of $0.42 per share, which includes an estimate of amortization of IQOS commercialization rights in the U.S. following the closing of the agreement to end our commercial relationship with Altria Group, Inc. covering IQOS in the U.S. effective May 1, 2024;
  • Net financing costs of approximately $1.1 to $1.2 billion;
  • An effective tax rate, excluding discrete tax events, of approximately 21% to 22%;
  • Operating cash flow of approximately $11 billion at prevailing exchange rates, subject to year-end working capital requirements;
  • Capital expenditures of around $1.4 billion, including further investments in ZYN capacity in the U.S.;
  • Net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio improvement of 0.3x to 0.4x at prevailing exchange rates as we continue to target a ratio of around 2x by the end of 2026; and
  • No share repurchases in 2024

Factors described in the Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements section of this release represent continuing risks to these projections.

Sale of Vectura Group

In September 2024, PMI announced the sale of its subsidiary Vectura Group Ltd. (Vectura) to Molex Asia Holdings Ltd., and the establishment of master service agreements to develop Vectura Fertin Pharma's inhaled therapeutics proprietary pipeline. The transaction is expected to close by the end of 2024, subject to regulatory approval, which may impact the timing, and other customary closing conditions. See PMI's Form 8-K dated September 17, 2024 for additional details. In the third quarter of 2024, PMI recorded an impairment charge of $198 million (previously estimated to be approximately $220 million at the time of announcement) related to Vectura's classification as held for sale.

The remaining units of Vectura Fertin Pharma will continue to operate as a separate company under PMI's ownership and will be given a new corporate identity. This business will focus on developing and commercializing oral consumer health and wellness offerings and inhaled prescription products for therapy areas that include pain management and cardiovascular emergencies.

Update on CCAA Proceeding in Canada

In October 2024, PMI was informed by its deconsolidated Canadian affiliate, Rothmans,Benson & Hedges Inc. (RBH), that the court-appointed mediator and monitor in RBH's Companies' Creditors Arrangement Act (CCAA) proceeding filed a proposed plan of compromise and arrangement outlining certain terms of a comprehensive resolution of tobacco product-related claims and litigation in Canada against RBH and its affiliates. See PMI's Form 8-K dated October 18, 2024 for additional details.

(4) Includes $665 million impairment of goodwill in 2023.

Adjusted net revenues increased by 10.7% on an organic basis, mainly reflecting: a favorable pricing variance, primarily driven by higher combustible tobacco pricing; and favorable volume/mix, driven by higher smoke-free products volume, partly offset by unfavorable cigarette mix.

Adjusted operating income increased by 15.8% on an organic basis, mainly reflecting: the same factors as for net revenues; partly offset by higher marketing, administration and research costs (primarily due to inflationary impacts, notably related to wages, and higher commercial investments), as well as higher manufacturing costs, notably related to tobacco leaf and the impact of the EU single-use plastics directive, partly offset by productivity.

EUROPE REGION

Total Market, PMI Shipment & Market Share Commentaries

Third-Quarter
The estimated total market for cigarettes and HTUs in the Region increased by 1.8% to 148.6 billion units, reflecting a 0.6% increase for cigarettes and continued HTU growth.

Nine Months Year-to-Date
The estimated total market for cigarettes and HTUs in the Region was broadly stable, reflecting a 1.5% decrease for cigarettes, largely offset by an increase for HTUs.

Net revenues increased by 18.7% on an organic basis, primarily reflecting: favorable volume/mix, mainly due to growth of ZYN nicotine pouches in the U.S., partly offset by cigarette volume declines outside of the U.S.; and favorable cigarette pricing.

Adjusted operating income increased by 22.8% on an organic basis, mainly reflecting: favorable price variance and favorable volume/mix, mainly due to the same factors as for net revenues, partly offset by higher marketing, administration and research costs, including incremental investment in the U.S.

Philip Morris International: Delivering a Smoke-Free Future

Philip Morris International (PMI) is a leading international tobacco company, actively delivering a smoke-free future and evolving its portfolio for the long term to include products outside of the tobacco and nicotine sector. The company's current product portfolio primarily consists of cigarettes and smoke-free products. Since 2008, PMI has invested over $12.5 billion to develop, scientifically substantiate and commercialize innovative smoke-free products for adults who would otherwise continue to smoke, with the goal of completely ending the sale of cigarettes. This includes the building of world-class scientific assessment capabilities, notably in the areas of pre-clinical systems toxicology, clinical and behavioral research, as well as post-market studies. In 2022, PMI acquired Swedish Match - a leader in oral nicotine delivery - creating a global smoke-free champion led by the companies' IQOS and ZYN brands. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has authorized versions of PMI's IQOS devices and consumables and Swedish Match's General snus as Modified Risk Tobacco Products and renewal applications for these products are presently pending before the FDA. As of June 30, 2024, PMI's smoke-free products were available for sale in 90 markets, and PMI estimates that 36.5 million adults around the world use PMI's smoke-free products. The smoke-free business accounted for approximately 38% of PMI's total first-nine months 2024 net revenues. With a strong foundation and significant expertise in life sciences, PMI announced in February 2021 its ambition to expand into wellness and healthcare areas and aims to enhance life through the delivery of seamless health experiences. References to "PMI", "we", "our" and "us" mean Philip Morris International Inc., including its subsidiaries. For more information, please visit www.pmi.com and www.pmiscience.com.

Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements

This press release contains projections of future results and goals and other forward-looking statements, including statements regarding expected financial or operational performance; capital allocation plans; investment strategies; regulatory outcomes; market expectations; and business plans and strategies. Achievement of future results is subject to risks, uncertainties and inaccurate assumptions. In the event that risks or uncertainties materialize, or underlying assumptions prove inaccurate, actual results could vary materially from those contained in such forward-looking statements. Pursuant to the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, PMI is identifying important factors that, individually or in the aggregate, could cause actual results and outcomes to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements made by PMI.

PMI's business risks include: excise tax increases and discriminatory tax structures; increasing marketing and regulatory restrictions that could reduce our competitiveness, eliminate our ability to communicate with adult consumers, or ban certain of our products in certain markets or countries; health concerns relating to the use of tobacco and other nicotine-containing products and exposure to environmental tobacco smoke; litigation related to tobacco and/or nicotine use and intellectual property; intense competition; the effects of global and individual country economic, regulatory and political developments, natural disasters and conflicts; the impact and consequences of Russia's invasion of Ukraine; changes in adult smoker behavior; the impact of natural disasters and pandemics on PMI's business; lost revenues as a result of counterfeiting, contraband and cross-border purchases; governmental investigations; unfavorable currency exchange rates and currency devaluations, and limitations on the ability to repatriate funds; adverse changes in applicable corporate tax laws; adverse changes in the cost, availability, and quality of tobacco and other agricultural products and raw materials, as well as components and materials for our electronic devices; and the integrity of its information systems and effectiveness of its data privacy policies. PMI's future profitability may also be adversely affected should it be unsuccessful in its attempts to introduce, commercialize, and grow smoke-free products or if regulation or taxation do not differentiate between such products and cigarettes; if it is unable to successfully introduce new products, promote brand equity, enter new markets or improve its margins through increased prices and productivity gains; if it is unable to expand its brand portfolio internally or through acquisitions and the development of strategic business relationships; if it is unable to attract and retain the best global talent, including women or diverse candidates; or if it is unable to successfully integrate and realize the expected benefits from recent transactions and acquisitions. Future results are also subject to the lower predictability of our smoke-free products performance.

PMI is further subject to other risks detailed from time to time in its publicly filed documents, including PMI's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2023, Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the second quarter ended June 30, 2024, and the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the third quarter ended September 30, 2024, which will be filed in the coming days. PMI cautions that the foregoing list of important factors is not a complete discussion of all potential risks and uncertainties. PMI does not undertake to update any forward-looking statement that it may make from time to time, except in the normal course of its public disclosure obligations.

Non-GAAP Measures, Glossary and Explanatory Notes

Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures in this release to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures can be found in Exhibit 99.2 to the Form 8-K dated October 22, 2024, and at www.pmi.com/2024Q3earnings. A glossary of key terms, definitions and explanatory notes is available in the aforementioned Exhibit 99.2 and on the same webpage, where additional financial schedules, as well as adjustments and other calculations have also been made available.

Management reviews net revenues, gross profit, operating income, operating income margin, operating cash flow and earnings per share, or "EPS," on an adjusted basis, which may exclude the impact of currency and other items such as acquisitions, asset impairment and exit costs, tax items and other special items. Additionally, starting in 2022 and on a comparative basis, for these measures other than net revenues and operating cash flow, PMI includes adjustments to add back amortization expense on acquisition related intangible assets that are recorded as part of purchase accounting and contribute to PMI's revenue generation, as well as impairment of intangible assets, if any. While amortization expense on acquisition related intangible assets is excluded in these adjusted measures, the net revenues generated from these acquired intangible assets are included in the company's adjusted measures, unless otherwise stated. Currency-neutral and organic growth rates reflect the way management views underlying performance for these measures. PMI believes that such measures provide useful insight into underlying business trends and results. Management reviews these measures because they exclude changes in currency exchange rates and other factors that may distort underlying business trends, thereby improving the comparability of PMI's business performance between reporting periods. Furthermore, PMI uses several of these measures in its management compensation program to promote internal fairness and a disciplined assessment of performance against company targets. PMI discloses these measures to enable investors to view the business through the eyes of management.

Non-GAAP measures used in this release should neither be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
