2018 Full-Year Forecast

PMI revises its 2018 full-year reported diluted earnings per share forecast to be in a range of $5.02 to $5.12, at prevailing exchange rates, representing a projected increase of approximately 29% to 32% versus reported diluted earnings per share of $3.88 in 2017.

  • Excluding an unfavorable currency impact, at prevailing exchange rates, of approximately $0.07, the forecast range represents a projected increase of approximately 8% to 10% versus adjusted diluted earnings per share of $4.72 in 2017 as detailed in the attached Schedule 2.

2018 Full-Year Forecast Overview & Assumptions

This revised full-year forecast primarily reflects the effect of certain product and marketing initiatives, elements of which were first announced at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders in May 2018, notably:

  • The worldwide introduction of the next generation of IQOS devices towards the end of 2018, which requires the reduction of current generation device inventories, while the ramp-up of new devices is expected to occur in 2019;
  • A comprehensive set of new marketing programs in Japan, including the launch in October of a new heated tobacco mainstream-price product line for more price-sensitive consumers.

The forecast is based on the conservative view of a very limited favorable impact from these initiatives in Japan in 2018 (the full favorable effect therefore coming as of the beginning of 2019). Consequently, the forecast assumes that the sequential quarterly growth rate in new Japanese IQOS users for the second half of 2018 will be in line with that of the first half.

As a result, this forecast assumes:

  • Significant growth in PMI's in-market heated tobacco sales volume, reaching approximately 44 to 45 billion units in 2018;
  • Heated tobacco unit shipments of approximately 41 to 42 billion units in 2018, including an anticipated full-year inventory reduction -- concentrated in the third quarter of 2018 -- of approximately three billion units due to Japan;
  • A total cigarette and heated tobacco unit shipment volume decline for PMI of approximately 2% versus an estimated total international volume decline of 2% to 3%;
  • Currency-neutral net revenue growth of approximately 3% to 4%, compared to the previously disclosed assumption of approximately 8%, primarily reflecting:
    • the reduction of inventories and lower-than-anticipated consumer off-take, primarily in Japan, of IQOS devices (representing approximately (2.5) points) and heated tobacco units (representing approximately (2.0) points);
    • the impact of moving to highly inflationary accounting in Argentina (representing approximately (0.5) points), as explained below;
    • partially offset by higher-than-expected cigarette shipments (representing approximately 0.5 points).

This forecast further assumes:

  • A combustible product pricing variance of approximately 7%;
  • Net incremental investment behind RRPs of approximately $600 million for the full year;
  • Operating cash flow of approximately $9 billion, subject to currency movements and year-end working capital requirements;
  • Capital expenditures of approximately $1.5 billion compared to the previously disclosed assumption of $1.7 billion, primarily reflecting lower planned spending on heated tobacco unit manufacturing equipment, driven by increased production efficiency and dual-production flexibility at existing factories, coupled with an adjustment for revised production forecasts;
  • An effective tax rate of approximately 24%, as described in the section below; and
  • No share repurchases.

This forecast excludes the impact of any future acquisitions, unanticipated asset impairment and exit cost charges, future changes in currency exchange rates, further developments related to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, and any unusual events. Factors described in the Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements section of this release represent continuing risks to these projections.

2018 SECOND-QUARTER CONSOLIDATED RESULTS

Philip Morris International Inc. (NYSE: PM) today announced its 2018 second-quarter results.

"Our second-quarter earnings highlight the fundamental strength of our business, with positive total volume growth, currency-neutral net revenue growth of more than 8%, driven by higher pricing from our combustible product portfolio, and close to double-digit growth in ex-currency operating income," said André Calantzopoulos, Chief Executive Officer.

"We are seeing encouraging improvement in the markets we previously cited as challenging, with a sequential recovery of volume in the GCC and an improving pricing environment in Russia."

"Reflecting better execution, our heated tobacco portfolio across IQOS launch geographies is performing well, notably in key markets such as the EU. We are implementing the right marketing and product measures to reinvigorate growth in Japan, which is undoubtedly well below our initial expectation this year. These initiatives, which require the rightsizing this year of existing IQOS device and consumable inventories, will position PMI well for a strong overall performance in 2019.”

"Our revised 2018 EPS guidance reflects this decision, as well as the shift in previously positive currency to a headwind for the full year. Partially offsetting these impacts is the benefit of a further reduction of our effective tax rate."

"As demonstrated by our dividend increase of 6.5% last month, we remain confident in our long-term growth prospects, underpinned by the strength of our combustible portfolio and the proven potential of our smoke-free alternatives."

Impact of U.S. Tax Reform

PMI's 2018 full-year diluted earnings per share forecast assumes a full-year effective tax rate of approximately 24%. The reduction in this rate compared to the full-year effective tax rate of 26% communicated in April 2018 mainly reflects further analysis, interpretation and clarifications of the scope and impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Act”).

The Act has significant complexity, and our final full-year effective tax rate may differ from this assumption, due to, among other things, additional guidance that may be issued by the U.S. Treasury Department and the Internal Revenue Service, related interpretations and clarifications of tax law, and earnings mix by taxing jurisdiction.

U.S. GAAP Treatment of Argentina as a Highly Inflationary Economy

Following the categorization of Argentina by the International Practices Task Force of the Center for Audit Quality as a country with a three-year cumulative inflation rate greater than 100%, the country is considered highly inflationary in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Consequently, PMI will begin to account for the operations of its Argentinian affiliates as highly inflationary, and treat the U.S. dollar as the functional currency of the affiliates, effective July 1, 2018.

Dividends

During the quarter, PMI increased its regular quarterly dividend by 6.5%, from $1.07 to $1.14, representing an annualized rate of $4.56 per common share. Since its spin-off in March 2008, PMI has increased its regular quarterly dividend by 147.8% from the initial annualized rate of $1.84 per common share, or a compound annual growth rate of 9.5%.

PMI's Latest Clinical Results: A Step Further to Confirming Risk-Reduction

On June 8, PMI submitted the results of the first six-month term of its 6+6 month exposure response study ("ERS") to the U.S. FDA to add to the extensive body of evidence already presented to the agency in support of PMI’s pending application for authorization of IQOS as a modified risk tobacco product.

The ERS was a six-month randomized, controlled, two-arm parallel group, multi-center U.S. study in adults who switched from smoking cigarettes to IQOS as compared to continuing to smoke cigarettes. The study followed 984 people who were randomized to either continue smoking cigarettes (n=488), or switch to IQOS (n=496) for six months. The ERS assessed a set of eight co-primary clinical risk endpoints, which were selected because of their epidemiological association with smoking-related diseases. These endpoints are negatively impacted by smoking and based on literature are expected to improve within six months of smoking cessation.

The study met its primary objective: all eight of the co-primary clinical risk endpoints moved in the same direction as observed for smoking cessation in the group who switched to IQOS, with statistically significant changes in five of the eight endpoints compared with on-going smoking. These clinical risk endpoints are associated with diseases including heart and lung diseases, covering multiple organ systems, disease pathways, and biological mechanisms such as inflammation and oxidative stress.

The study was designed to address key questions related to the impact of switching to IQOS, as it is actually used. Study participants were adult smokers who had no intention to quit smoking and allowed them to freely use IQOS as well as other tobacco and nicotine containing products. The study met its primary objective, even though there was a proportion of the IQOS users in the study who concomitantly used cigarettes. In addition, data for a number of secondary clinical risk endpoints were also collected and analyzed in this study. These results provide further context and strength to the conclusion from the eight co-primary clinical risk endpoints. For more information on the ERS, go to www.clinicaltrials.gov (Identifier: NCT02396381). The full results will be submitted for publication in a peer-reviewed journal.

"The results are very encouraging," said André Calantzopoulos, Chief Executive Officer. "We believe this study on IQOS is the first ever clinical study of this magnitude to directly assess the risk-reduction potential of a smoke-free product in people who switch to it. Everything we’ve seen, including these new results, continues to point in the direction of risk reduction.”

Net revenues, excluding favorable currency, increased by 7.1%, reflecting: a favorable volume/mix, driven by heated tobacco unit volume in Japan and Korea, partly offset by unfavorable volume in Australia. The favorable volume/mix was partly offset by an unfavorable pricing variance, mainly due to Korea, reflecting the impact of the excise tax increase on the heated tobacco category in December 2017, partly offset by Australia. The pricing variance was also unfavorably impacted by the retail price adjustment of June 1, 2018, in Japan of IQOS device inventories in the distribution and retail trade channels.

Operating income, excluding unfavorable currency, decreased by 1.4%, mainly reflecting: an unfavorable pricing variance; higher marketing, administration and research costs, principally related to increased investment behind reduced-risk products in Japan and Korea; partly offset by favorable volume/mix and lower manufacturing costs, primarily related to Japan.

Adjusted operating income margin, excluding currency, decreased by 3.0 points to 35.1%, reflecting the factors mentioned above, as detailed on Schedule 7.

Second-Quarter

The estimated total market in East Asia & Australia decreased, notably due to:

  • Australia, down by 11.7%, primarily reflecting the impact of excise tax-driven retail price increases in 2017 and in the first quarter of 2018;
  • Japan, down by 1.9%, primarily reflecting the decline of the total cigarette market; and
  • Taiwan, down by 57.7%, primarily reflecting the impact of excise tax-driven retail price increases in June 2017.

PMI's total shipment volume increased by 6.7% to 23.0 billion units, or by 4.3% excluding the net favorable impact of an estimated 0.5 billion units of distributor inventory movements primarily in Japan. The increase was mainly driven by higher heated tobacco unit shipment volume in Japan and Korea, reflecting higher market share, partly offset by lower cigarette shipment volume, mainly in Korea, down by 14.8%, primarily reflecting the lower total cigarette market and out-switching to heated tobacco units, and Taiwan, down by 40.1%, primarily reflecting the lower total market, partly offset by higher share.

The net favorable distributor inventory movements in Japan of an estimated 0.5 billion units reflected:

  • Net favorable cigarette inventory movements of approximately 2.0 billion, reflecting a cigarette inventory reduction in the second quarter of 2017 of approximately 1.3 billion units, driven by out-switching to HeatSticks, and favorable cigarette inventory movements in the second quarter of 2018 of approximately 0.7 billion units, reflecting category consumption trends;

partly offset by

  • Net unfavorable heated tobacco unit inventory movements of approximately 1.5 billion units, driven by the build-up of HeatStick inventory in the second quarter of 2017 in response to increasing market demand.

Excluding the impact of estimated distributor inventory movements, PMI's total shipment volume in Japan was up by 5.0%, reflecting an increase of heated tobacco unit shipment volume of 39.8% partly offset by a decline of cigarette shipment volume of 19.0%.

  • Australia, down by 10.1%, primarily reflecting the same factors as in the quarter;
  • Japan, down by 2.1%, primarily reflecting the same factors as in the quarter; and
  • Taiwan, down by 45.9% primarily reflecting the same factors as in the quarter.

PMI's total shipment volume increased by 3.5% to 44.4 billion units, or by 7.7% excluding the net unfavorable impact of an estimated 1.8 billion units of distributor inventory movements primarily in Japan. The increase was mainly driven by higher heated tobacco unit shipment volume in Japan and Korea, reflecting higher market share, partly offset by lower cigarette shipment in Japan and Korea, down by 12.2% and 10.9%, respectively, primarily reflecting the lower total cigarette market and out-switching to heated tobacco units, and Taiwan, down by 34.8%, primarily reflecting the lower total market, partly offset by higher share.

The net unfavorable distributor inventory movements in Japan of an estimated 1.9 billion units reflected:

  • Net unfavorable heated tobacco unit inventory movements of approximately 2.9 billion units, reflecting inventory build-up during the first six months of 2017 to meet increasing market demand; partly offset by
  • Net favorable cigarette inventory movements of approximately 1.0 billion units, mainly driven by inventory build-up during the first six months of 2018, reflecting category consumption trends.

Excluding the impact of estimated distributor inventory movements, PMI's total shipment volume in Japan was up by 8.1%, reflecting an increase of heated tobacco unit shipment volume of 57.8%, partly offset by a decline of cigarette shipment volume of 17.7%.

Philip Morris International: Who We Are

We are a leading international tobacco company engaged in the manufacture and sale of cigarettes and other nicotine-containing products in markets outside the United States of America. We’re building our future on smoke-free products that are a much better consumer choice than continuing to smoke cigarettes. Through multidisciplinary capabilities in product development, state-of-the-art facilities and scientific substantiation, we aim to ensure that our smoke-free products meet adult consumer preferences and rigorous regulatory requirements. Our vision is that these products ultimately replace cigarettes to the benefit of adult smokers, society, our company and our shareholders. For more information, see www.pmi.com and www.pmiscience.com.

Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements

This press release contains projections of future results and other forward-looking statements. 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; 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, natural disasters and conflicts; 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, and limitations on the ability to repatriate funds; 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 and commercialize reduced-risk 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; 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-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2018. 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.

  • [NEW] In-market sales, or "IMS," is defined as sales to the retail channel, depending on the market and distribution model.
  • "Total shipment volume" is defined as the combined total of cigarette shipment volume and heated tobacco unit shipment volume.
  • Effective January 1, 2018, PMI began managing its business in six reporting segments as follows: the European Union Region (EU); the Eastern Europe Region (EE); the Middle East & Africa Region (ME&A), which includes PMI Duty Free; the South & Southeast Asia Region (S&SA); the East Asia & Australia Region (EA&A); and the Latin America & Canada Region (LA&C).
  • "North Africa" is defined as Algeria, Egypt, Libya, Morocco and Tunisia.
  • "The GCC" (Gulf Cooperation Council) is defined as Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE).

Financial

  • Net revenues related to combustible products refer to the operating revenues generated from the sale of these products, including shipping and handling charges billed to customers, net of sales and promotion incentives, and excise taxes. PMI recognizes revenue when control is transferred to the customer, typically either upon shipment or delivery of goods.
  • PMI has adopted Accounting Standard Update ASU 2014-09 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" as of January 1, 2018 on a retrospective basis. PMI made an accounting policy election to exclude excise taxes collected from customers from the measurement of the transaction price, thereby presenting revenues, net of excise taxes in all periods. The underlying principles of the new standard, relating to the measurement of revenue and the timing of recognition, are closely aligned with PMI's current business model and practices.
  • PMI adopted Accounting Standard Update ASU 2017-07 "Compensation - Retirement Benefits" as of January 1, 2018 on a retrospective basis. Previously, total pension and other employee benefit costs were included in operating income. Beginning January 1, 2018, only the service cost component is required to be shown in operating income, while all other cost components are presented in a new line item “pension and other employee benefit costs" below operating income.
  • Prior to 2018, management evaluated business segment performance, and allocated resources, based on operating companies income, or OCI. Effective January 1, 2018, management began evaluating business segment performance, and allocating resources, based on operating income, or OI.
  • "Cost of sales" consists principally of: tobacco leaf, non-tobacco raw materials, labor and manufacturing costs; shipping and handling costs; and the cost of IQOS devices produced by third-party electronics manufacturing service providers. Estimated costs associated with IQOS warranty programs are generally provided for in cost of sales in the period the related revenues are recognized.
  • "Marketing, administration and research costs" include the costs of marketing and selling our products, other costs generally not related to the manufacture of our products (including general corporate expenses), and costs incurred to develop new products. The most significant components of our marketing, administration and research costs are marketing and sales expenses and general and administrative expenses.
  • "Cost/Other" in the Financial Summary table of total PMI and the six reporting segments of this release reflects the currency-neutral variances of: cost of sales (excluding the volume/mix cost component); marketing, administration and research costs; asset impairment and exit costs; and amortization of intangibles.
  • "Adjusted Operating Income Margin" is calculated as adjusted operating income, divided by net revenues.
  • "Adjusted EBITDA" is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and equity (income)/loss in unconsolidated subsidiaries, excluding asset impairment and exit costs, and unusual items.
  • "Net debt" is defined as total debt, less cash and cash equivalents.
  • Management reviews net revenues, OI, OI margins, 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.
  • 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. For a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, see the relevant schedules provided with this press release.

Reduced-Risk Products

  • "Reduced-risk products," or "RRPs," is the term PMI uses to refer to products that present, are likely to present, or have the potential to present less risk of harm to smokers who switch to these products versus continued smoking. PMI has a range of RRPs in various stages of development, scientific assessment and commercialization. Because PMI's RRPs do not burn tobacco, they produce an aerosol that contains far lower quantities of harmful and potentially harmful constituents than found in cigarette smoke.
  • IQOS is a precisely controlled heating device into which a specially designed and proprietary tobacco unit is inserted and heated to generate an aerosol.
  • "Heated tobacco units," or "HTUs," is the term PMI uses to refer to heated tobacco consumables, which include the company's HEETS, HEETS Marlboro and HEETS FROM MARLBORO, defined collectively as HEETS, as well as Marlboro HeatSticks and Parliament HeatSticks.
  • Net revenues related to RRPs represent the sale of heated tobacco units, IQOS devices and related accessories, and other nicotine-containing products, primarily e-vapor products, including shipping and handling charges billed to customers, net of sales and promotion incentives, and excise taxes. PMI recognizes revenue when control is transferred to the customer, typically either upon shipment or delivery of goods.
