Philip Morris International Inc. (NYSE / Euronext Paris: PM) today announced its 2014 first-quarter results.

“Our first-quarter results were in line with our expectations, given the known challenges we face in Asia and inventory distortions," said André Calantzopoulos, Chief Executive Officer.

"Based on our expectation of robust pricing, market share growth momentum and early signs that the operating environment is improving in Europe, combined with our continued investments for the long-term, we remain confident in our constant-currency adjusted diluted EPS growth rate of 6%-8% for this year."

2014 FIRST-QUARTER CONSOLIDATED RESULTS

In this press release, “PMI” refers to Philip Morris International Inc. and its subsidiaries. References to total international cigarette market, defined as worldwide cigarette volume excluding the United States, total cigarette market, total market and market shares are PMI estimates based on the latest available data from a number of internal and external sources and may, in defined instances, exclude the People's Republic of China and/or PMI's duty-free business. North Africa is defined as Algeria, Egypt, Libya, Morocco and Tunisia. The term “net revenues” refers to operating revenues from the sale of our products, excluding excise taxes and net of sales and promotion incentives. Operating companies income, or “OCI,” is defined as operating income, excluding general corporate expenses and the amortization of intangibles, plus equity (income)/loss in unconsolidated subsidiaries, net. PMI's management evaluates business segment performance and allocates resources based on OCI. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Management also reviews OCI, OCI margins and earnings per share, or “EPS,” and EBITDA on an adjusted basis (which may exclude the impact of currency and other items such as acquisitions, asset impairment and exit costs, discrete tax items and unusual items), as well as free cash flow, defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures, and net debt. PMI believes it is appropriate to disclose these measures as they improve comparability and help investors analyze business performance and trends. Non-GAAP measures used in this release should be considered neither in isolation nor as a substitute for the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Comparisons are to the same prior-year period unless otherwise stated. For a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to corresponding GAAP measures, see the relevant schedules provided with this press release. In 2013, PMI concluded a number of business development initiatives and agreements that were not accounted for as acquisitions; thus, non-GAAP financial measures for 2013 that exclude acquisitions do not exclude the impact of said initiatives and agreements. Trademarks and service marks in this press release that are the registered property of, or licensed by, the subsidiaries of PMI, are italicized.

The total cigarette market for the full-year 2014 is estimated to increase by up to 1.0%. PMI's shipment volume in the quarter of 25.5 billion units decreased by 5.5%, primarily due to lower market share, down by 1.6 points to 34.6% as a result of: the share decline of hand-rolled Dji Sam Soe, which decreased by 2.1 points to 4.2%, due to the continuing decline of the hand-rolled kretek segment, partially offset by the growth of machine-made Dji Sam Soe Magnum, and the fact that the brand crossed a critical price point ahead of competition; the withdrawal of PMI's ultra-low price brands Trend Mild and Vegas Mild following the implementation of excise tax legislation relating to sister companies in the fourth quarter of 2013; and increased competition in the machine-made LTLN (low-tar, low-nicotine) segment. Market share of Sampoerna A, in the premium machine-made LTLN segment, increased by 0.1 point to 14.4%, while mid-price U Mild was up by 1.1 points to 5.2%. Marlboro's market share increased by 0.3 points to 5.3% and its share of the “white” cigarettes segment, which represented 6.6% of the total cigarette market, increased by 5.9 points to 80.4%.

In Japan, the total cigarette market increased by 9.6% to 49.4 billion units, mainly driven by retail trade and consumer purchasing ahead of the consumption tax-driven retail price increases of April 1, 2014. Excluding the favorable impact of these inventory movements, the total cigarette market is estimated to have declined by approximately 2.0%. For the full-year 2014, the total cigarette market is projected to decline by an estimated 3.0% to 3.5%. PMI's shipment volume in the quarter of 13.5 billion units decreased by 9.1%, principally due to the adverse timing of PMI shipments and lower market share. PMI's market share decreased by 2.0 points to 25.5%, with share of Marlboro, Lark, Philip Morris and Virginia S. down by 0.4, 0.8, 0.2 and 0.3 points to 11.9%, 7.5%, 2.0% and 1.9%, respectively. Excluding the impact of retail trade and consumer purchasing on the total market, PMI's estimated market share of 25.9% was flat against the fourth quarter of 2013.

In Korea, the total cigarette market decreased by 5.4% to 19.4 billion units, mainly due to an unfavorable comparison with the first quarter of 2013 resulting from trade inventory movements ahead of an anticipated excise tax increase in 2013 that did not materialize. Although PMI's shipment volume of 3.8 billion units decreased by 3.3%, market share increased by 0.7 points to 19.9%, with share of Marlboro, up by 0.3 points to 7.9%, Parliament, up by 0.3 points to 7.1%, driven by Parliament Hybrid 5mg and the successful launch in October 2013 of Parliament Hybrid 1mg, and Virginia S., flat at 4.1%.

In the Philippines, the total tax-paid industry cigarette volume increased by 25.9% to an estimated 19.3 billion units, primarily reflecting a favorable comparison with the first quarter of 2013 which was significantly impacted by a disruptive excise tax increase in January and a surge in the prevalence of domestic non-duty paid products. PMI's shipment volume of 16.2 billion units increased by 19.6%. PMI's market share of 83.7%, down by 4.4 points, was up compared to the fourth-quarter and full-year 2013 market shares of 72.3% and 79.3%, respectively. Marlboro's market share decreased by 2.8 points to 18.8% in the first quarter of 2014. Share of Fortune decreased by 11.4 points to 32.3%, more than offset by gains from PMI's other local brands.

LATIN AMERICA & CANADA REGION

2014 First-Quarter

Net revenues of $713 million decreased by 8.7%, including unfavorable currency of $101 million. Excluding currency, net revenues increased by 4.2%, driven by favorable pricing of $86 million, principally in Argentina, Canada and Mexico, partially offset by unfavorable volume/mix of $53 million, principally due to unfavorable estimated trade inventory movements in Mexico.

Operating companies income of $202 million decreased by 20.5%, including unfavorable currency of $52 million. Excluding currency, operating companies income was flat, reflecting favorable pricing offset by unfavorable volume/mix of $48 million, principally due to the trade inventory movements in Mexico, and higher costs, primarily reflecting the impact of inflation in Argentina and business-building initiatives, notably in Brazil.

Adjusted operating companies income decreased by 20.5% as shown in the table below and detailed on Schedule 7. Adjusted operating companies income, excluding unfavorable currency, was flat.

Latin America & Canada Key Market Commentaries

In Argentina, the total cigarette market decreased by 0.9% to 10.7 billion units. PMI's cigarette shipment volume of 8.3 billion units increased by 2.2% and market share increased by 2.5 points to 77.1%, driven by mid-price Philip Morris, up by 3.2 points to 43.3%, reflecting the positive impact of its capsule variants, partially offset by low-price Next, down by 0.6 points to 2.2%. Share of Marlboro was up by 0.1 point to 24.1%.

In Canada, the total cigarette market decreased by 7.5% to 5.8 billion units, mainly due to the depletion of estimated trade inventory levels and the unfavorable impact of price increases.

While PMI's cigarette shipment volume of 2.2 billion units decreased by 2.7%, market share increased by 2.4 points to 38.5%, with premium brands Benson & Hedges flat at 2.3% and Belmont up by 0.4 points to 2.8%.

In Mexico, the total cigarette market decreased by 11.3% to 7.2 billion units, mainly due to the depletion of estimated trade inventory levels built up ahead of PMI's price increase in December 2013. Excluding these trade inventory movements, the total cigarette market declined by 2.0%. PMI's cigarette shipment volume of 4.9 billion units decreased by 18.3%. PMI's market share decreased by 5.8 points to 67.7%, or by 1.7 points to 71.3%, excluding the impact of trade inventory movements. While market share of Marlboro was down by 6.2 points to 47.0%, or down by 2.8 points to 50.4% excluding the impact of the trade inventory movements, and share of Benson & Hedges was down by 0.6 points to 5.2%, reflecting consumer down-trading and the timing of price increases by PMI's principal competitor, PMI's share of the premium price segment was up by 1.3 points to 91.2%. Market share of Delicados, the second best-selling brand in the market, increased by 0.2 points to 10.7%.

Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements

This press release contains projections of future results and other forward-looking statements. Achievement of projected 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: significant increases in cigarette-related taxes; the imposition of discriminatory excise tax structures; fluctuations in customer inventory levels due to increases in product taxes and prices; increasing marketing and regulatory restrictions, often with the goal of reducing or preventing the use of tobacco products; health concerns relating to the use of tobacco products and exposure to environmental tobacco smoke; litigation related to tobacco use; intense competition; the effects of global and individual country economic, regulatory and political developments; changes in adult smoker behavior; lost revenues as a result of counterfeiting, contraband and cross-border purchases; governmental investigations; unfavorable currency exchange rates and currency devaluations; adverse changes in applicable corporate tax laws; adverse changes in the cost and quality of tobacco and other agricultural products and raw materials; and the integrity of its information systems. PMI's future profitability may also be adversely affected should it be unsuccessful in its attempts to produce products with the potential to reduce the risk of smoking-related diseases; 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; or if it is unable to attract and retain the best global talent.

PMI is further subject to other risks detailed from time to time in its publicly filed documents, including the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. PMI cautions that the foregoing list of important factors is not a complete discussion of all potential risks and uncertainties.
