Philip Morris International Inc. Reports 2019 Third-Quarter Results

Revises, for a Tax Charge of $0.20 Per Share in Russia, 2019 Full-Year Reported Diluted EPS Forecast to at Least $4.73 vs. $5.08 in 2018, Reflecting Currency-Neutral Like-For-Like Adjusted Diluted EPS Growth of at Least 9.0%

October 17, 2019 06:59 AM Eastern Daylight Time

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Philip Morris International Inc. (NYSE: PM) today announces its 2019 third-quarter results and revises its 2019 full-year reported diluted earnings per share forecast. Comparisons presented in this press release on a "like-for-like" basis reflect pro forma 2018 results, which have been adjusted for the deconsolidation of PMI's Canadian subsidiary, Rothmans, Benson & Hedges, Inc. (RBH), effective March 22, 2019 (the date of deconsolidation). In addition, reflecting the deconsolidation, PMI's total market share has been restated for previous periods.

"Our third quarter results continued to reflect strong underlying business performance and include the better-than-anticipated timing of pricing and costs compared to our previously communicated assumptions for the quarter," said André Calantzopoulos, Chief Executive Officer.

"The exciting global growth of our heated tobacco products drove our resilient total shipment performance, despite certain timing issues related to our combustible portfolio. The quality of our execution across the business drove growth against each of the key metrics of net revenues, operating income, margin, as well as earnings per share -- both in the quarter and year-to-date -- on a currency-neutral, adjusted like-for-like basis."

"Importantly, IQOS was introduced in the U.S. this quarter, where it is currently the only FDA-authorized heat-not-burn product."

"While we expect our net revenue and adjusted operating income growth in the fourth quarter to be in line with our year-to-date results, our currency-neutral adjusted EPS growth is anticipated to be lower than our year-to-date performance, primarily due to an unfavorable income tax rate comparison and a high relative adjusted operating income growth contribution from markets with sizable non-controlling interests. Nevertheless, we are fully on track to deliver our target of full-year currency-neutral, like-for-like adjusted diluted EPS growth of at least 9%."

PMI revises its full-year 2019 reported diluted EPS forecast to be at least $4.73 at prevailing exchange rates, compared to the previously communicated forecast of at least $4.94, versus $5.08 in 2018.

This revised full-year guidance reflects:

A favorable tax item of $0.04 per share related to a reduction in estimated U.S. federal income tax on dividend repatriation for the years 2015-2018 recorded in the second quarter of 2019;
Asset impairment and exit costs of approximately $0.04 per share resulting from plant closures as part of global manufacturing infrastructure optimization, reflecting: $0.01 per share related to Pakistan recorded in the first quarter of 2019; $0.02 per share related to Colombia ($0.01 per share recorded in the second quarter of 2019 and $0.01 per share in the third quarter of 2019); and $0.01 per share anticipated in the fourth quarter of 2019;
A Canadian tobacco litigation-related expense of approximately $0.09 per share, announced on March 4, 2019, as well as the net impact of the loss on deconsolidation of PMI's Canadian subsidiary Rothmans, Benson & Hedges Inc. (RBH) under U.S. GAAP of approximately $0.12 per share, recorded in the first quarter of 2019, which is a non-cash item;
A charge of approximately $0.20 per share related to an excise and VAT tax audit in Russia (see below for a full description);
An unfavorable currency impact, at prevailing exchange rates, of approximately $0.14;
The exclusion, announced on March 22, 2019, of RBH’s previously anticipated net earnings from PMI’s consolidated financial statements, from March 22, 2019 (the date of deconsolidation) to December 31, 2019, of approximately $0.28 per share;
A full-year effective tax rate of approximately 23%, excluding discrete tax items and Loss on Deconsolidation of RBH; and
A projected increase of at least 9%, excluding currency, versus pro forma adjusted diluted earnings per share of $4.84 in 2018, as detailed in the attached Schedule 3 and as shown in the 2019 EPS Forecast table above.

Russia Excise & VAT Audit Charge

The Moscow Tax Inspectorate for Major Taxpayers (MTI) conducted an audit of AO Philip Morris Izhora (PM Izhora), our Russian affiliate, for the 2015-2017 financial years. On July 26, 2019, MTI issued its initial assessment, claiming that intercompany sales of cigarettes between PM Izhora and another Russian affiliate prior to excise tax increases and submission by PM Izhora of the maximum retail sales price notifications for cigarettes to the tax authorities were improper under Russian tax laws and resulted in underpayment of excise taxes and VAT. In August 2019, PM Izhora submitted its objections disagreeing with MTI’s allegations set forth in the initial assessment and MTI’s methodology for calculating the alleged underpayments. MTI accepted some of PM Izhora’s arguments and in September 2019, issued the final tax assessment claiming an underpayment of RUB 24.3 billion (approximately $374 million) including penalties and interest. In accordance with Russian tax laws, PM Izhora paid the entire amount of MTI’s final assessment. PMI recorded a pre-tax charge of $374 million, representing $315 million net of income tax and an earnings per share charge of approximately $0.20. Under the Russian law, PM Izhora has until mid-September 2020 to challenge the final tax assessment to the Federal Tax Service and is considering whether to pursue such a challenge.

2019 Full-Year Forecast Overview & Assumptions

This forecast assumes:

An estimated total international industry volume decline, excluding China and the U.S., of approximately 2.5%;
A total cigarette and heated tobacco unit shipment volume decline for PMI of approximately 1.0% to 1.5% on a like-for-like basis, compared to the previously communicated decline rate of approximately 1.0%, primarily reflecting the impact of earlier-than-initially-anticipated price increases in select markets;
Heated tobacco unit shipment volume in line with PMI's in-market heated tobacco unit sales volume, with 2019 inventory movements in individual markets expected to offset on an aggregate basis;
Currency-neutral net revenue growth, on a like-for-like basis, of at least 6%;
Currency-neutral net incremental investment behind RRPs of approximately $400 million for the full year 2019;
An increase in full-year currency-neutral, like-for-like adjusted operating income margin of approximately 150 basis points versus 2018, compared to the previously communicated increase of at least 100 basis points;
Operating cash flow of approximately $9.2 billion, compared to the previously communicated assumption of $9.5 billion, primarily reflecting the impact of the Russia excise and VAT audit charge described above, subject to year-end working capital requirements;
Capital expenditures of approximately $1.0 billion, compared to the previously communicated assumption of $1.1 billion;
An effective tax rate of approximately 23%; 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, further developments pertaining to the judgment in the two Québec Class Action lawsuits and the Companies’ Creditors Arrangement Act (CCAA) protection granted to RBH and any unusual events.

This forecast also excludes the contemplated proposal, previously communicated by PMI's local affiliate, to end cigarette production in Berlin, Germany, by January 2020, as part of global manufacturing infrastructure optimization. Until the consultation process is concluded, the closure of the Berlin facility is not considered probable (under U.S. GAAP), and the total potential costs associated with this contemplated proposal, which are expected to be significant, cannot be determined. As a result, no related costs were recorded in the third quarter of 2019. If the consultation process is successfully concluded, PMI would expect, at that time, to record charges, which would include employee severance costs, asset costs, including accelerated depreciation, and impairment and other closure related costs. The amount and timing of the income statement recognition of these amounts and the related cash flows will depend on a number of factors including the timing of the completion of the consultation process as well as the negotiated elements of the associated social plan. The Berlin facility has a projected 2019 production capacity of approximately 40 billion units. Approximately 950 employees are anticipated to be impacted under this contemplated proposal.

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

Third-Quarter

PMI's total shipment volume decreased by 2.1%, or by 1.4% on a like-for-like basis, principally due to:

Middle East & Africa, reflecting lower heated tobacco unit shipment volume in PMI Duty Free and cigarette shipment volume, notably in Saudi Arabia and Turkey, partly offset by Egypt;
South & Southeast Asia, reflecting lower cigarette shipment volume, primarily in Indonesia, Pakistan and the Philippines, partly offset by Thailand; and
Latin America & Canada, due to lower cigarette shipment volume, primarily in Canada (reflecting the impact of the deconsolidation of RBH) and Mexico, partly offset by Brazil. On a like-for-like basis, PMI's total shipment volume in the Region decreased by 6.9%;

partly offset by

the EU, reflecting higher heated tobacco unit shipment volume across the Region, notably in Italy, partly offset by lower cigarette shipment volume, primarily in France and Italy;
Eastern Europe, reflecting higher heated tobacco unit shipment volume across the Region, notably in Kazakhstan, Russia and Ukraine, partly offset by lower cigarette shipment volume, mainly in Russia and Ukraine; and
East Asia & Australia, driven by higher heated tobacco unit shipment volume in Japan (mainly reflecting a favorable comparison with the third quarter of 2018 in which IQOS consumable inventories were reduced), partly offset by lower cigarette shipment volume across the Region, notably in Japan and Korea, as well as lower heated tobacco unit shipment volume in Korea.

Impact of Inventory Movements

On a like-for-like basis, excluding the net favorable impact of estimated distributor inventory movements of approximately 4.8 billion units, PMI’s total in-market sales declined by 3.6% due to a 5.7% decline of cigarette in-market sales, partially offset by a 28.3% increase in heated tobacco unit in-market sales.

The net favorable impact of estimated distributor inventory movements of approximately 4.8 billion units was driven by 3.8 billion heated tobacco units (mainly reflecting a favorable comparison with the third quarter of 2018 in which IQOS consumable inventories in Japan were reduced), and 1.0 billion cigarettes, driven partly by Japan.

Nine Months Year-to-Date

PMI's total shipment volume decreased by 0.9%, or by 0.4% on a like-for-like basis, due to:

South & Southeast Asia, reflecting lower cigarette shipment volume, primarily in Indonesia and Pakistan, partly offset by the Philippines and Thailand;
East Asia & Australia, primarily reflecting lower cigarette shipment volume in Japan and lower cigarette and heated tobacco unit shipment volume in Korea, partly offset by higher heated tobacco unit shipment volume in Japan; and
Latin America & Canada, reflecting lower cigarette shipment volume, principally in Argentina, Canada (primarily reflecting the impact of the deconsolidation of RBH), Mexico and Venezuela, partly offset by Brazil. On a like-for-like basis, PMI's total shipment volume in the Region decreased by 5.2%;

partly offset by

the EU, reflecting higher heated tobacco unit shipment volume across the Region, notably in Italy, and higher cigarette shipment volume in Poland, partly offset by lower cigarette shipment volume in France and Italy; and
Middle East & Africa, primarily reflecting higher cigarette shipment volume, notably in Egypt and Saudi Arabia, partly offset by lower cigarette and heated tobacco unit shipment volume in PMI Duty Free.

PMI's total shipment volume in Eastern Europe was flat, reflecting higher heated tobacco unit shipment volume across the Region, notably in Kazakhstan, Russia and Ukraine, offset by lower cigarette shipment volume, primarily in Russia and Ukraine.

Impact of Inventory Movements

On a like-for-like basis, excluding the net favorable impact of estimated distributor inventory movements of approximately 3.6 billion units, PMI’s total in-market sales declined by 1.0% due to a 2.9% decline of cigarette in-market sales, partly offset by a 31.8% increase in heated tobacco unit in-market sales.

The net favorable impact of estimated distributor inventory movements of approximately 3.6 billion units reflected 2.9 billion heated tobacco units, driven primarily by Japan, partly offset by PMI Duty Free and Russia, and 0.7 billion cigarettes, driven primarily by the EU Region and Saudi Arabia, partly offset by North Africa and Thailand.

⁽²⁾ Unfavorable Cost/Other variance includes 2019 asset impairment and exit costs and the Russia excise and VAT audit charge.

⁽³⁾ Included in Marketing, Administration and Research Costs above.

Note: Net Revenues include revenues from shipments of the IQOS heated tobacco device, heated tobacco units and accessories to Altria Group, Inc., commencing in the third quarter of 2019, for sale under license in the United States.

Net revenues, excluding unfavorable currency, increased by 3.4%, mainly reflecting: a favorable pricing variance, driven notably by Germany, Indonesia, Mexico, the Philippines and Turkey, partly offset by Japan (reflecting the price repositioning of IQOS devices and associated inventory revaluation); as well as a favorable volume/mix, mainly driven by heated tobacco units, notably across the EU, Japan and Russia, partly offset by unfavorable volume/mix of cigarettes, notably in Australia, Indonesia, Japan, Mexico, Russia and Turkey, as well as unfavorable volume of heated tobacco units in Korea and PMI Duty Free. The currency-neutral growth in net revenues of 3.4% came despite the unfavorable impact of $276 million, shown in "Cost/Other," predominantly resulting from the deconsolidation of RBH. On a like-for-like basis, net revenues, excluding unfavorable currency, increased by 7.0%, as detailed in the attached Schedule 9.

Third-Quarter

The estimated total market in the Middle East & Africa increased, notably driven by:

Algeria, up by 7.5%, partly reflecting the impact of estimated trade inventory movements;
Egypt, up by 10.1%, mainly due to the timing of estimated trade inventory movements in the third quarter of 2019 related to anticipated price increases compared to estimated unfavorable trade inventory movements in the third quarter of 2018 following the July 2018 health tax increase; and
Saudi Arabia, up by 4.1%, primarily reflecting a recovery of the total market following the introduction of the new excise tax in June 2017 and VAT in January 2018, respectively;

partly offset by

Duty Free, down by 5.6%, mainly reflecting increased enforcement of traveler allowances, notably by China.

PMI's total shipment volume decreased by 2.5% to 37.6 billion units, notably due to:

PMI Duty Free, down by 11.1%. Excluding the net unfavorable impact of estimated distributor inventory movements, primarily of heated tobacco units, PMI's in market sales declined by 8.0%, primarily reflecting the lower total market;
Saudi Arabia, down by 21.1%. Net unfavorable estimated distributor inventory movements totaled 0.6 billion cigarettes, mainly attributable to the pay-back of adjustments in the first half of 2019 resulting from the delayed importation deadline before the implementation of plain packaging scheduled for January 1, 2020. Excluding the impact of these inventory movements, PMI's in-market sales grew by 1.9%; and
Turkey, down by 10.7%, mainly reflecting lower market share, primarily driven by the timing of above-inflation retail price increases in April 2019 compared to competition, as well as the impact of price increases in August 2019;

partly offset by

Egypt, up by 22.6%, primarily reflecting higher market share, driven by L&M, as well as a higher total market.

Third-Quarter

The estimated total market in South & Southeast Asia decreased, notably due to:

Indonesia, down by 1.6%, mainly due to estimated trade inventory movements;
Pakistan, down by 49.8%, mainly due to estimated trade inventory movements following those of the second quarter 2019 related to anticipated excise tax-driven price increases compared to the prior year. Excluding the impact of these inventory movements, the total market is estimated to have declined by 14.7%; and
the Philippines, down by 5.8%, mainly due to the impact of price increases in the below premium segment in the fourth quarter of 2018, as well as price increases in the third-quarter of 2019;

partly offset by

Thailand, up by 3.3%, primarily reflecting on-going recovery from the September 2017 excise tax reform.

PMI's total shipment volume decreased by 7.6% to 42.4 billion units, notably due to:

Indonesia, down by 5.7%, mainly reflecting a lower market share, primarily due to widening price gaps between Sampoerna A and competitive brands following its price increase in October 2018, as well as a lower total market;
Pakistan, down by 54.1%, mainly reflecting a lower total market; and
the Philippines, down by 2.8%, mainly reflecting a lower total market, partly offset by higher market share, notably of Marlboro;

Net revenues, excluding unfavorable currency, increased by 7.5%, reflecting favorable volume/mix, mainly driven by heated tobacco units in Japan, reflecting the favorable comparison with the third quarter of 2018 in which distributor inventories were rightsized, partly offset by unfavorable cigarette volume in Australia and Japan, and unfavorable cigarette and heated tobacco unit and IQOS device volume in Korea. The favorable volume/mix was partly offset by an unfavorable pricing variance, mainly due to Japan (reflecting the price repositioning of IQOS devices and associated inventory revaluation).

Operating income, excluding favorable currency, increased by 3.1%, mainly reflecting favorable volume/mix, mainly driven by favorable heated tobacco unit volume in Japan, partly offset by unfavorable cigarette volume in Australia and Japan, and unfavorable cigarette and heated tobacco unit volume in Korea. The favorable volume/mix was partly offset by an unfavorable pricing variance and higher marketing, administration and research costs, partly related to reduced-risk products in Japan, partly offset by lower manufacturing costs, mainly in Korea.

Philip Morris International: Delivering a Smoke-Free Future

Philip Morris International (PMI) is leading a transformation in the tobacco industry to create a smoke-free future and ultimately replace cigarettes with smoke-free products to the benefit of adults who would otherwise continue to smoke, society, the company and its shareholders. PMI is a leading international tobacco company engaged in the manufacture and sale of cigarettes, as well as smoke-free products and associated electronic devices and accessories, and other nicotine-containing products in markets outside the United States. In addition, PMI ships its IQOS device and its consumables to Altria Group, Inc. for sale in the United States under license. PMI is building a future on a new category of smoke-free products that, while not risk-free, are a much better choice than continuing to smoke. Through multidisciplinary capabilities in product development, state-of-the-art facilities and scientific substantiation, PMI aims to ensure that its smoke-free products meet adult consumer preferences and rigorous regulatory requirements. PMI's smoke-free IQOS product portfolio includes heat-not-burn and nicotine-containing vapor products. As of September 30, 2019, PMI estimates that approximately 8.8 million adult smokers around the world have already stopped smoking and switched to PMI's heat-not-burn product, available for sale in 51 markets in key cities or nationwide under the IQOS brand.

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 and effectiveness of its data privacy policies. 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. Future results are also subject to the lower predictability of our reduced-risk product category's performance.

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 June 30, 2019. 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.

Key Terms, Definitions and Explanatory Notes

General

"PMI" refers to Philip Morris International Inc. and its subsidiaries. Trademarks and service marks that are the registered property of, or licensed by, the subsidiaries of PMI, are italicized.
Comparisons are made to the same prior-year period unless otherwise stated.
Unless otherwise stated, references to total industry, total market, PMI shipment volume and PMI market share performance reflect cigarettes and heated tobacco units.
References to total international market, defined as worldwide cigarette and heated tobacco unit volume excluding the United States, total industry, total market and market shares are PMI estimates for tax-paid products 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. In addition, to reflect the deconsolidation of PMI's Canadian subsidiary, Rothmans, Benson & Hedges, Inc. (RBH), effective March 22, 2019, PMI's total market share has been restated for previous periods.
"OTP" is defined as "other tobacco products," primarily roll-your-own and make-your-own cigarettes, pipe tobacco, cigars and cigarillos, and does not include reduced-risk products.
"Combustible products" is the term PMI uses to refer to cigarettes and OTP, combined.
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.
"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).
Following the deconsolidation of PMI's Canadian subsidiary, Rothmans, Benson & Hedges, Inc. (RBH), PMI will continue to report the volume of brands sold by RBH for which other PMI subsidiaries are the trademark owner. These include HEETS, Next, Philip Morris and Rooftop, which accounted for approximately 40% of RBH's total shipment volume in 2018.
From time to time, PMI’s shipment volumes are subject to the impact of distributor inventory movements, and estimated total industry/market volumes are subject to the impact of inventory movements in various trade channels that include estimated trade inventory movements of PMI’s competitors arising from market-specific factors that significantly distort reported volume disclosures. Such factors may include changes to the manufacturing supply chain, shipment methods, consumer demand, timing of excise tax increases or other influences that may affect the timing of sales to customers. In such instances, in addition to reviewing PMI shipment volumes and certain estimated total industry/market volumes on a reported basis, management reviews these measures on an adjusted basis that excludes the impact of distributor and/or estimated trade inventory movements. Management also believes that disclosing PMI shipment volumes and estimated total industry/market volumes in such circumstances on a basis that excludes the impact of distributor and/or estimated trade inventory movements, such as on an IMS basis, improves the comparability of performance and trends for these measures over different reporting periods.

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.
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.
"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.
[NEW] "Cost/Other" in the Consolidated 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 (including asset impairment and exit costs, the Canadian tobacco litigation-related expense and the charge related to the deconsolidation of RBH in Canada, and the Russia excise & VAT audit charge); and amortization of intangibles. “Cost/Other” also includes the currency-neutral net revenue variance, unrelated to volume/mix and price components, attributable to fees for certain distribution rights billed to customers in certain markets in the ME&A Region, as well as the impact of the deconsolidation in RBH.
"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.
[NEW] 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. For example, PMI’s adjusted diluted EPS and other impacted results reflect the loss on deconsolidation of RBH and the Canadian tobacco litigation-related expense, recorded in the first quarter of 2019, and the Russia excise & VAT charge, recorded in the third quarter of 2019. PMI believes that the adjusted measures, including pro forma measures, will provide useful insight into underlying business trends and results, and will provide a more meaningful performance comparison for the period during which RBH remains under CCAA protection. For PMI's 2018 pro forma adjusted diluted EPS by quarter and year-to-date, see Schedule 3 in PMI's third-quarter 2019 earnings release.
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 U.S. GAAP measures, see the relevant schedules provided with this press release.
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 began to account for the operations of its Argentinian affiliates as highly inflationary, and to treat the U.S. dollar as the functional currency of the affiliates, effective July 1, 2018. The move to highly inflationary accounting in Argentina reduced PMI's currency-neutral net revenue growth by approximately 0.6 points in 2018.

Reduced-Risk Products

Reduced Risk Products (“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 continuing smoking. PMI has a range of RRPs in various stages of development, scientific assessment and commercialization. PMI's RRPs are smoke-free products that produce an aerosol that contains far lower quantities of harmful and potentially harmful constituents than found in cigarette smoke.
"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.
Unless otherwise stated, all references to IQOS are to PMI's heat-not-burn products.
The IQOS heat-not-burn device is a precisely controlled heating device into which a specially designed and proprietary tobacco unit is inserted and heated to generate an aerosol.

[NEW] IQOS in the United States

On April 30, 2019, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced that the marketing of IQOS, PMI's electrically heated tobacco system, is appropriate for the protection of public health and authorized it for sale in the United States. The FDA’s decision follows its comprehensive assessment of PMI’s premarket tobacco product applications (PMTAs) submitted to the Agency in 2017. In the third quarter of 2019, PMI brought the IQOS device and three variants of its heated tobacco units (the term PMI uses to refer to heated tobacco consumables) to the U.S. through its license with Altria Group, Inc., whose subsidiary, Philip Morris USA Inc., will market the product and comply with the provisions set forth in the FDA's marketing order.
Shipment volume of heated tobacco units to the United States is included in the heated tobacco unit shipment volume of the Latin America & Canada segment. Revenues from shipments of the IQOS heated tobacco device, heated tobacco units and accessories to Altria Group, Inc. for sale under license in the United States are included in Net Revenues of the Latin America & Canada segment.
