Philip Morris International Inc. Reports 2020 First-Quarter Reported Diluted EPS of $1.17 Versus $0.87 in 2019, Reflecting Currency-Neutral Like-for-Like Adjusted Diluted EPS Growth of 30.1%

April 21, 2020 6:59 AM

Withdraws 2020 Full-Year Reported Diluted EPS Forecast Due Solely to Uncertainty Related to COVID-19 Pandemic and Replaces With Quarterly Forecast; Provides 2020 Second-Quarter Reported Diluted EPS Forecast of $1.00 to $1.10, Reflecting Unfavorable Currency Impact of Approximately $0.12

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Regulatory News:

Philip Morris International Inc. (NYSE: PM) today announces its 2020 first-quarter results. Comparisons presented in this press release on a "like-for-like" basis reflect pro forma 2019 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.

2020 FIRST-QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS

"During these unprecedented times, our main focus is on the health and well-being of our employees and their families, our commercial partners and the broader communities in which we operate," said André Calantzopoulos, Chief Executive Officer. "To that end, we recently announced a new set of guiding principles to reassure our employees of the company’s commitment to job security. Thanks to our employees' efforts, our business continuity measures are operating effectively."

"We started the year with a very strong first quarter, reflecting continued structural growth momentum driven by our smoke-free portfolio and favorable combustible tobacco pricing. We experienced a limited impact on our performance from the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, as the onset of government restrictions related to social distancing and travel were generally only implemented in our key markets over the course of March."

"We expect that the pandemic will have adverse impacts on our full-year 2020 business results. Those already observable relate to a severe reduction of our duty-free sales, slower IQOS user acquisition and delayed minimum price enforcement in Indonesia. We also have to assume that, in certain markets, unemployment and related reductions in disposable income will have a temporary impact on market dynamics or the ability of certain small retailers to operate."

"The duration of the pandemic, the magnitude of its economic impact during the government restrictions, and the subsequent speed of recovery are today unknown. As we are currently unable to forecast with reasonable accuracy the impact of these factors for the remainder of the year, we are withdrawing our 2020 reported diluted EPS guidance of at least $5.50, originally provided on February 6, 2020, and are instead providing a forecast for the second quarter, for which we have relatively better visibility."

"Despite near-term uncertainty, our company is resilient with a robust financial position. I remain as confident as ever in the underlying fundamentals of our business over time and expect PMI to emerge from the current challenges even better positioned to deliver on our smoke-free ambition and reward our shareholders."

COVID-19: Q1 2020 Volume and Financial Impacts on Like-for-Like Change vs. Q1 2019

The estimated impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on select PMI volume and currency-neutral financial metrics in the first quarter of 2020 are provided in the table below and primarily reflect favorable estimated distributor and trade inventory movements.

COVID-19: Business Continuity Update

Since the onset of COVID-19, PMI has undertaken a number of business continuity measures to mitigate potential disruption to its operations and route-to-market in order to preserve the availability of products to its customers and adult consumers.

Currently, PMI has sufficient access to the inputs for its products and is not facing any significant business continuity issues with respect to key suppliers.

The large majority of PMI's manufacturing facilities globally are currently operational, including all heated tobacco unit factories. Certain cigarette production facilities are temporarily impacted by government-mandated shutdowns or production limitations. Such facilities account for approximately 20% of PMI's total cigarette production capacity worldwide.

Based on current sales trends, there are adequate inventories of PMI finished goods, on average across all markets, of over two months for heated tobacco units, over three months for tobacco heating devices, and over one and a half months for cigarettes. While government-related restrictions have led to complexities in the company's route-to-market in select geographies, PMI does not currently anticipate out-of-stock situations in any major operating income markets and generally expects consumers to have adequate access to its products. In certain emerging markets, potential difficulties for some smaller general trade outlets could lead to temporary localized out-of-stock situations given less developed route-to-market infrastructures.

Currently, PMI has ample liquidity resources through cash on hand, the ongoing cash generation of its business, and continued access to commercial paper. As of March 31, 2020, the company had approximately $3.7 billion of cash and cash equivalents, $1.1 billion of commercial paper, with an average term of approximately 30 days, and $7.5 billion in stand-by revolving credit facilities. PMI repaid approximately $3.6 billion in bond maturities during the first quarter and paid approximately $3.6 billion in dividends to shareholders year-to-date April (reflecting dividends declared in the fourth quarter of 2019 and the first quarter of 2020). The company has a well laddered bond portfolio and $0.3 billion of bonds maturing through the end of 2020.

COVID-19: Primary Business Impacts

While the trajectory and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic -- and related government restrictions -- remain uncertain, PMI anticipates three primary areas of impact from temporary changes to its operating environment:

PMI also anticipates uncertainty as to the general economic impact of the global pandemic and ultimate shape of the recovery, particularly with respect to unemployment, disposable income, consumption and the extent of any down-trading, as well as retail operations in certain developing markets.

2020 FULL-YEAR FORECAST WITHDRAWAL

Given the inherent uncertainty surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic and the related impact on PMI's business globally, the company is currently unable to forecast its full-year financial results with reasonable accuracy. PMI is therefore withdrawing its 2020 reported diluted EPS forecast of at least $5.50, originally provided on February 6, 2020.

The limited impact of COVID-19 on the company's first-quarter 2020 financial results primarily reflected the relatively late-quarter onset of the pandemic in many of PMI's key markets. However, as an increasing number of governments globally have now enforced self-isolation and lock-down measures -- the duration and severity of which remain uncertain -- the company anticipates an adverse impact on its full-year results that cannot be accurately quantified at this time.

Based on data from markets to date, particularly those that were impacted by COVID-19-related government restrictions earlier in the year, PMI believes that the adverse impacts on its business from the pandemic are temporary in nature, mainly subject to the duration of government lock-downs and the subsequent timing of recovery.

2020 SECOND-QUARTER FORECAST

Although the company is unable to assess with reasonable accuracy the impact of COVID-19 on its business over the full year, it has relatively better visibility on the second quarter of 2020.

As initially communicated on February 6th, PMI anticipated a soft second quarter in 2020, notably due to an unfavorable prior year comparison, existing dynamics in Indonesia and the phasing of certain costs. The company now anticipates a further adverse impact related to the COVID-19 pandemic, with the largest quarterly impact this year expected in the second quarter.

PMI forecasts second-quarter reported diluted EPS to be in a range of $1.00 to $1.10, including an unfavorable currency impact, at prevailing exchange rates, of approximately $0.12 per share.

This forecast assumes the following estimated unfavorable EPS impacts in the quarter related to COVID-19:

The forecast also assumes:

Until PMI is able to estimate the full-year 2020 impact of COVID-19 on its business with greater certainty, the company plans to continue providing quarterly forecasts on a one quarter forward basis, with the exception of the following items forecasted for the full year:

The forecasts in this press release exclude the impact of any future acquisitions, unanticipated asset impairment and exit cost charges, future changes in currency exchange rates, further developments related to the U.S. 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, any unusual events, and any COVID-19-related developments different from the assumptions set forth in the company's forecasts.

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

PMI's cigarette shipment volume of the following brands decreased:

The increase in PMI's heated tobacco unit shipment volume was mainly driven by the EU (notably Italy), Eastern Europe (notably Russia and Ukraine) and Japan, partly offset by PMI Duty Free.

PMI's cigarette shipment volume of the following brands increased:

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

Note: Net Revenues include revenues from shipments of Platform 1 devices, heated tobacco units and accessories to Altria Group, Inc., commencing in the third quarter of 2019, for sale under license in the United States.

During the quarter, net revenues, excluding unfavorable currency, increased by 7.1%, mainly reflecting: a favorable pricing variance, notably driven by Australia, the GCC, Germany, Mexico, the Philippines and Turkey, partly offset by Italy; and a favorable volume/mix, primarily driven by heated tobacco unit volume (notably in the EU and Eastern Europe, partly offset by PMI Duty Free), partially offset by lower IQOS device volume (notably in Japan) and lower cigarette volume (mainly due to Mexico, the Philippines, Saudi Arabia and Turkey, largely offset by Germany, Italy, Japan, North Africa and Russia). The currency-neutral growth in net revenues of 7.1% came despite the unfavorable impact of $228 million, shown in "Cost/Other," mainly resulting from the deconsolidation of RBH. On a like-for-like basis, net revenues, excluding unfavorable currency, increased by 10.0%, as detailed in Schedule 8.

Operating income, excluding unfavorable currency, increased by 45.6%, notably reflecting a favorable comparison to charges recorded in the first quarter of 2019 of $453 million, shown in "Cost/Other," related to the loss on deconsolidation of RBH, the Canadian tobacco litigation-related expense, and asset impairment and exit costs related to a plant closure in Pakistan.

Excluding the impact of these 2019 charges, adjusted operating income, excluding unfavorable currency, increased by 19.3%, primarily reflecting: a favorable pricing variance; and favorable volume/mix, primarily driven by heated tobacco unit volume (notably in the EU and Eastern Europe, partly offset by PMI Duty Free); partially offset by higher manufacturing costs; higher marketing, administration and research costs (notably reflecting increased investment behind reduced-risk products, mainly in the EU and Eastern Europe); and the net unfavorable impact resulting from the deconsolidation of RBH, included in "Cost/Other." On a like-for-like basis, adjusted operating income, excluding unfavorable currency, increased by 25.5%, as detailed in Schedule 8.

Adjusted operating income margin, excluding currency, increased by 4.2 points to 41.3%, as detailed in Schedule 7, or by 5.1 points to 41.3% on a like-for-like basis, as detailed in Schedule 8.

During the quarter, net revenues, excluding unfavorable currency, increased by 20.7%, primarily reflecting favorable volume/mix, mainly driven by higher heated tobacco unit volume across the Region (notably in the Czech Republic, Germany, Italy and Poland), as well as higher cigarette volume (notably in Germany and Italy). The favorable pricing variance reflected higher combustible pricing across the Region (notably in Germany), partly offset by lower heated tobacco unit pricing (notably in Italy) and lower IQOS device pricing.

Operating income, excluding unfavorable currency, increased by 36.5%, mainly reflecting: favorable volume/mix, driven by the same factors as for net revenues noted above; and a favorable pricing variance; partly offset by higher manufacturing costs; and higher marketing, administration and research costs, largely related to increased investments behind reduced-risk products.

During the quarter, net revenues, excluding favorable currency, increased by 35.1%, mainly reflecting: favorable volume/mix, predominantly driven by higher heated tobacco unit volume in Russia and Ukraine; and a favorable pricing variance, driven mainly by higher combustible pricing (notably in Russia and Ukraine), partly offset by lower IQOS device pricing (predominantly in Russia).

Operating income, excluding unfavorable currency (primarily related to an adverse transaction currency impact from the revaluation of foreign currency payables in Russia), increased by 48.1%, mainly reflecting: favorable volume/mix, reflecting the same drivers as for net revenues noted above; and a favorable pricing variance; partially offset by higher manufacturing costs and higher marketing, administration and research costs (primarily related to reduced-risk products in Russia and Ukraine).

During the quarter, net revenues, excluding unfavorable currency, decreased by 5.3%, reflecting: unfavorable volume/mix, mainly due to lower heated tobacco unit and IQOS device volume in PMI Duty Free and lower cigarette volume (notably in Saudi Arabia and Turkey, partly offset by Kuwait and North Africa); and lower fees for certain distribution rights billed to customers in certain markets, shown in "Cost/Other"; partially offset by a favorable pricing variance, driven predominantly by the GCC and Turkey.

Operating income, excluding unfavorable currency, decreased by 1.2%, reflecting: unfavorable volume/mix, mainly due to lower heated tobacco unit volume in PMI Duty Free and lower cigarette volume (notably in Saudi Arabia, partly offset by Kuwait and North Africa); and unfavorable "Cost/Other," mainly due to lower fees for certain distribution rights, as for net revenues noted above, and higher manufacturing costs, partly offset by lower marketing, administration and research costs; partially offset by a favorable pricing variance.

During the quarter, net revenues, excluding favorable currency, increased by 10.7%, reflecting a favorable pricing variance, principally driven by the Philippines, partly offset by unfavorable volume/mix, mainly due to lower cigarette volume in Indonesia and the Philippines, partially offset by favorable cigarette mix in Indonesia.

Operating income, excluding favorable currency, increased by 31.8%, partly reflecting a favorable comparison to a charge recorded in the first quarter of 2019, shown in "Cost/Other," for asset impairment and exit costs related to a plant closure in Pakistan.

Excluding the impact of the 2019 charge, adjusted operating income, excluding favorable currency, increased by 26.1%, reflecting a favorable pricing variance, partly offset by unfavorable volume/mix, due to the same factors as for net revenues noted above, and higher marketing, administration and research costs.

Adjusted operating income margin, excluding currency, increased by 5.8 points to 47.1%, as detailed in Schedule 7.

During the quarter, net revenues, excluding unfavorable currency, decreased by 4.3%, reflecting: unfavorable volume/mix, mainly due to lower IQOS device volume in Japan and unfavorable cigarette volume/mix in Australia, partly offset by higher cigarette and heated tobacco unit volume in Japan. The unfavorable volume/mix was partly offset by a favorable pricing variance, mainly driven by Australia.

Operating income, excluding unfavorable currency, increased by 14.8%, mainly reflecting lower manufacturing costs related to Japan; lower marketing, administration and research costs; and a favorable pricing variance; partly offset by unfavorable volume/mix, notably due to unfavorable cigarette volume/mix in Australia, partially offset by higher cigarette volume in Japan.

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 a version of its IQOS Platform 1 device and its consumables authorized by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to Altria Group, Inc. for sale in the U.S. 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 March 31, 2020, PMI estimates that approximately 10.6 million adult smokers around the world have already stopped smoking and switched to PMI's heat-not-burn product, available for sale in 53 markets in key cities or nationwide under the IQOS brand. 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 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 and other nicotine-containing 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.

The COVID-19 pandemic has created significant societal and economic disruption, and resulted in closures of stores, factories and offices, and restrictions on manufacturing, distribution and travel, all of which will adversely impact our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial position during the continuation of the pandemic. Although we have business continuity plans and other safeguards in place, there is no assurance that such plans and safeguards will be effective. While much of the COVID-19 pandemic and its effect on our business is still unknown, currently, significant risks include our diminished ability to convert adult smokers to our RRPs, significant volume declines in our duty-free business and certain other key markets, disruptions or delays in our manufacturing and supply chain, increased currency volatility, and delays in certain cost saving, transformation and restructuring initiatives. Our business could also be adversely impacted if key personnel or a significant number of employees or business partners become unavailable due to the COVID-19 outbreak. The significant adverse impact of COVID-19 on the economic or political conditions in markets in which we operate could result in changes to the preferences of our adult consumers, lower demand for our products, particularly for our mid-price or premium-price brands, and increased illicit trade. Continuation of the pandemic could disrupt our access to the credit markets or increase our borrowing costs. Governments may temporarily be unable to focus on the development of science-based regulatory frameworks for the development and commercialization of RRPs or on the enforcement or implementation of regulations that are significant to our business. In addition, messaging about the potential negative impacts of the use of our products on COVID-19 risks may lead to increasingly restrictive regulatory measures on the sale and use of our products, negatively impact demand for our products, the willingness of adult consumers to switch to our RRPs and our efforts to advocate for the development of science-based regulatory frameworks for the development and commercialization of RRPs.

Despite our efforts to manage these risks, their impact also depends on factors beyond our knowledge or control, including the duration and severity of the outbreak and actions taken to contain its spread and to mitigate its public health effects, and the ultimate economic consequences thereof.

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, 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.
