STAMFORD, CT--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Regulatory News:
Philip Morris International Inc. (PMI) (NYSE: PM) today announces its 2024 fourth-quarter and full-year results.1
"2024 was a remarkable year for PMI. We delivered very strong full-year results driven by the continued growth of IQOS and ZYN in addition to a robust combustibles performance," said Jacek Olczak, Chief Executive Officer.
"The long-awaited U.S. FDA authorization of all ZYN nicotine pouches currently marketed in the U.S. is further evidence of the compelling science supporting smoke-free products. We hope our other pending FDA applications will be accelerated. We also hope other countries follow the example of the U.S. and embrace effective tobacco harm reduction measures. This is especially important in places where smoke-free products are banned, resulting in the perpetuation of combustible cigarette consumption."
"With strong momentum across all categories, we are confident that our smoke-free transformation and unparalleled brand portfolio will continue to deliver excellent performance and create value for our shareholders in 2025 and for the long term."
Results Highlights |
- Smoke-free business (SFB): Quarterly shipments of HTU and oral smoke-free products exceeded 40 billion units for the first time, driving our smoke-free business to a superior performance, with full-year net revenues increasing by 14.2% (16.7% organically) and gross profit increasing by 18.7% (22.7% organically). In the fourth quarter, we delivered 9.2% net revenue growth (9.0% organically) and 15.1% gross profit growth (both reported and organically), despite a tough comparison due to shipment phasing. The smoke-free business accounted for 40% of our total net revenues and around 42% of gross profit (up by 0.7pp and 0.9pp respectively, versus fourth-quarter 2023), with 38.6 million estimated adult users of our smoke-free products (up by 5.3 million versus December 2023), which are now available in 95 markets.
- Inhalable smoke-free products (SFP): IQOS continues to strengthen its overall position as the second largest nicotine 'brand' in markets where present (gaining 0.7pp of combined cigarette and HTU industry volumes in the fourth quarter) and driving the growth of the heat-not-burn category (over 75% 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 for the full year by an estimated 12.6%, with an acceleration, as expected, in the second half to close to 14%, with growth of around 13% in the fourth quarter.
- In Japan, ILUMA i fueled the growth of IQOS, with adjusted IMS up by around 13% for the full year and the fourth quarter, the 9th consecutive quarter of double-digit growth. IQOS HTU adjusted market share increased by 3.1pp to 30.6% in the fourth quarter. In December, the overall HTU category exceeded 50% of total nicotine offtake share in 10 major cities and 5 prefectures.
- In Europe, IQOS HTU adjusted market share increased by 0.9pp in the fourth quarter to 10.6%. Adjusted IMS grew by an estimated 9.4% for the full year with an acceleration in the second half to almost 11%. This includes close to 10% estimated growth in the fourth quarter, with strong double-digit growth in many markets, including Spain, Bulgaria, Romania, Greece, and Germany. IQOS HTU offtake share reached a number of milestones in key cities, crossing 40% in Budapest, 30% in Rome, 15% in Belgrade, and approaching 10% in London and Vienna, with Madrid not far behind.
- Outside Europe and Japan, strong adjusted IMS growth continued and offtake share increased in key cities across the globe, including Riyadh, Kuala Lumpur, Jakarta, and Mexico City.
In the vaping category, VEEV is an increasingly trusted choice among IQOS legal-age poly-users, and an important part of our smoke-free multi-category strategy, which we continue to deploy across our markets. VEEV is a top 3 pod brand in 13 European markets (holding the #1 position in 5 markets, including Italy, Romania and Czech Republic).
- Oral SFP2: Full-year shipment volume increased by nearly 28% in cans (nearly 25% in pouches or pouch equivalents). Fourth quarter shipment volume increased by 25% in cans (22% in pouches or pouch equivalents), fueled by ZYN nicotine pouch growth in the U.S., where shipments reached nearly 165 million cans, representing growth of nearly 42% versus prior year. Outside the U.S., our nicotine pouch quarterly shipment volume more than doubled, with notable contributions from Pakistan, South Africa, the UK and Mexico. The number of markets where our nicotine pouch products are available increased to 37, including recent launches in Italy, Romania and Thailand.
- Combustibles: Full-year net revenues grew by 4.0% (5.9% organically) predominantly driven by strong pricing. Fourth quarter net revenues grew by 6.0% (6.2% organically), driven by another quarter of high single-digit pricing and growing industry volumes in markets where smoke-free products are not allowed, including Turkey, India, Brazil and Vietnam. Strong pricing and productivity improvements resulted in gross profit growth of 10.7% (10.8% organically). Our global brands portfolio and Marlboro both achieved further market share gains.
- Dividend: Declared regular quarterly dividend of $1.35 per share, or an annualized $5.40 per share.

Reported diluted EPS is forecast to be in a range of $6.55 to $6.68, at prevailing exchange rates, versus reported diluted EPS of $4.52 in 2024. Excluding a total 2025 adjustment of $0.49 per share, this forecast represents a projected increase of 7.2% to 9.1% versus adjusted diluted EPS of $6.57 in 2024. Also excluding an adverse currency impact of $0.22, at prevailing exchange rates, this forecast represents a projected increase of 10.5% to 12.5% versus adjusted diluted EPS of $6.57 in 2024, as outlined in the above table.
2025 Full-Year Forecast Assumptions
This forecast assumes:
- An estimated total international industry volume decline of around 1% for cigarettes and HTUs, excluding China and the U.S.;
- Total cigarette and smoke-free product shipment volume growth for PMI of up to 2% driven by smoke-free products volume growth of 12% to 14%. This factors absolute growth in HTU adjusted IMS volumes at a similar level to 2024, translating into 10% to 12% growth, with the HTU shipment growth rate broadly in line subject to shipment timing and trade inventory movements, and an acceleration in U.S. nicotine pouch shipment volume to reach 780 to 820 million cans, representing growth of 34% to 41%;
- Net revenue growth of around 6% to 8% on an organic basis;
- Organic operating income growth of 10.5% to 12.5%;
- Full-year amortization of acquired intangibles of $0.49 per share, including the amortization of IQOS commercialization rights in the U.S. related to the agreement to end our commercial relationship with Altria Group, Inc. covering IQOS in the U.S.;
- An effective tax rate, excluding discrete tax events, of approximately 22.5% to 23.5%;
- Operating cash flow of around $11 billion at prevailing exchange rates, subject to year-end working capital requirements. This takes into account non-recurring payments relating to the German tax surcharge and the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which amount to approximately $1 billion;
- Capital expenditures of approximately $1.5 billion, including further investments in ZYN capacity in the U.S.;
- Further net debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio improvement as we continue to target a ratio of around 2x by the end of 2026;
- No dividend income from Rothmans, Benson & Hedges Inc. (our deconsolidated Canadian affiliate);
- No share repurchases in 2025; and
- First quarter adjusted diluted EPS of $1.58 to $1.63, including an estimated adverse currency impact of 4 cents at prevailing exchange rates.
Factors described in the Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements section of this release represent continuing risks to these projections.
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.
On January 24, 2025, RBH filed an objection to approval of the proposed plan with the CCAA court. The positions taken by RBH in this objection, the positions taken by other parties in related filings, and other related developments narrowed the range of possible outcomes with respect to the allocation of the aggregate settlement amount of CAD 32.5 billion, which was determined to be an indicator that PMI's investment in RBH may be impaired. Although there remains some uncertainty as to the final terms of the plan, PMI concluded that, the estimated fair value of its investment in RBH was lower than its carrying value and recorded a non-cash impairment charge of $2.3 billion in the consolidated statement of earnings for the year ended December 31, 2024 as a recognized subsequent event, with an adverse impact on reported diluted EPS of $1.49.
Additionally, PMI has determined that if the CCAA court approves the plan as proposed and it is subsequently implemented, RBH would likely remain deconsolidated under U.S. GAAP. Since the first quarter of 2019, and to date, PMI's reported and adjusted EPS, net debt and other financial results have excluded RBH. However, subject to the terms and requirements of the proposed plan, the payment of certain dividends from RBH to PMI would be permitted going forward, which would be incremental to PMI's cash flow and adjusted diluted EPS.
New Segment Structure |
Following the sale of Vectura Group Ltd. on December 31, 2024, we will update our segment reporting by including the remaining units of Vectura Fertin Pharma in the Europe segment as of the first quarter of 2025. We plan to disclose select historical financial information for the 2022 to 2024 period reflecting this change in the coming weeks.
Conference Call |
A conference call hosted by Jacek Olczak, Chief Executive Officer, and Emmanuel Babeau, Chief Financial Officer, will be webcast at 9:00 a.m., Eastern Time, on February 6, 2025. Access the webcast at www.pmi.com/2024Q4earnings.

Philip Morris International: Delivering a Smoke-Free Future
Philip Morris International 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 $14 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. Following a robust science-based review, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has authorized the marketing of Swedish Match's General snus and ZYN nicotine pouches and versions of PMI's IQOS devices and consumables - the first-ever such authorizations in their respective categories. Versions of IQOS devices and consumables and General snus also obtained the first-ever Modified Risk Tobacco Product authorizations from the FDA. As of December 31, 2024, PMI's smoke-free products were available for sale in 95 markets, and PMI estimates that 38.6 million adults around the world use PMI's smoke-free products. The smoke-free business accounted for approximately 39% of PMI's total full-year 2024 net revenues. With a strong foundation and significant expertise in life sciences, PMI has a long-term ambition to expand into wellness and healthcare areas and aims to enhance life through the delivery of seamless health experiences.

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; business plans and strategies; plans and strategies related to the CCAA proceedings; the likelihood and impact to PMI of the proposed CCAA plan; and the likelihood and impact of RBH remaining deconsolidated. 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 third quarter ended September 30, 2024, and the Form 10-K for the fourth quarter and year ended December 31, 2024, which will be filed later today. 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 February 6, 2025, and at www.pmi.com/2024Q4earnings. 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, restructuring 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.
