October 20, 2020 6:59 AM

Raises 2020 Full-Year Reported Diluted EPS Forecast to a Range of $5.03 to $5.08, or $5.05 to $5.10 on an Adjusted Basis, Reflecting Organic Growth of Around 5% to 6%

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

Philip Morris International Inc. (NYSE: PM) today announces its 2020 third-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, PMI's total market share has been restated for previous periods to reflect the deconsolidation. Growth rates presented in this press release on an organic basis for consolidated financial results reflect currency-neutral underlying results and "like-for-like" comparisons, where applicable. Adjustments, other calculations and reconciliations to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures are included in the schedules to this press release.

2020 THIRD-QUARTER & YEAR-TO-DATE HIGHLIGHTS

2020 Third-Quarter

2020 Nine Months Year-to-Date

"We delivered stronger-than-anticipated results in the third quarter, despite the ongoing challenges of the pandemic, with adjusted diluted EPS growth of 5.6% on an organic basis," said André Calantzopoulos, Chief Executive Officer.

"The sustained momentum of IQOS was excellent, with an estimated 16.4 million total users at the end of September and smoke-free products accounting for nearly one-fourth of our total net revenues in the quarter. Furthermore, our combustible tobacco business recorded an improved sequential performance, supported by better underlying total industry volumes across both developed and emerging markets."

"Despite continued headwinds for our duty-free business and in Indonesia, we are raising our full-year 2020 guidance and now anticipate adjusted diluted EPS growth of around 5% to 6% on an organic basis, compared to a range of approximately 3.5% to 5.0% previously."

COVID-19: Business Continuity Update

Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, 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.

PMI raises its full-year 2020 reported diluted EPS forecast to a range of $5.03 to $5.08, at prevailing exchange rates, compared to the previously communicated forecast range of $4.92 to $4.99, provided on September 10th.

This revision primarily reflects:

Excluding an unfavorable currency impact, at prevailing exchange rates, of approximately $0.32 per share (compared to approximately $0.31 per share assumed previously), the favorable tax item of $0.06 per share, asset impairment and exit costs of $0.04 per share and the fair value adjustment for equity security investments of $0.04 per share, this forecast represents a projected increase of around 5% to 6% versus pro forma adjusted diluted EPS of $5.13 in 2019, as detailed in the above table.

2020 Full-Year Forecast Assumptions

This forecast assumes:

This forecast excludes the impact of any future acquisitions, unanticipated or unquantifiable 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 forecast.

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

PMI's total shipment volume decreased by 7.6%, due to:

Impact of Inventory Movements

Excluding the net unfavorable impact of estimated distributor inventory movements of approximately 3.4 billion units, PMI’s total in-market sales declined by 5.8%, due to a 8.8% decline in cigarettes, partly offset by a 28.5% increase in heated tobacco units.

The net unfavorable impact of estimated distributor inventory movements of approximately 3.4 billion units reflected a net unfavorable impact of 1.8 billion cigarettes, mainly due to Japan and PMI Duty Free, partly offset by Saudi Arabia, and a net unfavorable impact of 1.6 billion heated tobacco units, primarily due to Japan and Russia.

Nine Months Year-to-Date

PMI's total shipment volume decreased by 8.0% (or by 7.8% on a like-for-like basis), due to:

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.

Net revenues, excluding unfavorable currency, decreased by 1.5%, mainly reflecting: unfavorable volume/mix, primarily due to lower cigarette volume (mainly in Indonesia, Japan and PMI Duty Free), partially offset by higher heated tobacco unit volume (notably in the EU, Japan, Russia and Ukraine, partly offset by PMI Duty Free); partially offset by a favorable pricing variance (notably driven by Germany, Japan, Russia and Saudi Arabia, partly offset by Indonesia and Turkey).

Operating income, excluding unfavorable currency, increased by 20.9%, notably reflecting a favorable comparison, shown in "Cost/Other," due to charges recorded in the in the third quarter of 2019 of $396 million, related to: asset impairment and exit costs associated with a plant closure in Colombia and the Russia excise and VAT audit.

Excluding these charges and unfavorable currency, adjusted operating income increased by 5.8%, primarily reflecting: a favorable pricing variance; lower manufacturing costs (driven by productivity gains related to reduced-risk and combustible products); and lower marketing, administration and research costs (partly driven by cost efficiencies); partially offset by unfavorable volume/mix, due to the same factors as for net revenues noted above.

Adjusted operating income margin, excluding currency, increased by 3.1 points to 44.8%, as detailed in Schedule 8.

Net revenues, excluding unfavorable currency, increased by 7.3%, mainly reflecting: a favorable pricing variance, driven by higher combustible pricing (predominantly in Russia); and favorable volume/mix, mainly driven by higher heated tobacco unit volume across the Region (primarily in Russia and Ukraine), largely offset by unfavorable cigarette volume/mix in Russia.

Operating income, excluding unfavorable currency, increased by +100%, notably reflecting a favorable comparison, shown in "Cost/Other," due to a charge recorded in the third quarter of 2019 of $374 million related to the Russia excise and VAT audit.

Excluding this charge and unfavorable currency, adjusted operating income increased by 28.2%, reflecting: a favorable pricing variance; favorable volume/mix, reflecting the same drivers as for net revenues noted above; and lower manufacturing costs (mainly in Russia); partially offset by higher marketing, administration and research costs due to Russia.

Adjusted operating income margin, excluding currency, increased by 5.9 points to 36.3%, as detailed in Schedule 8.

(1) Cost/Other variance includes the impact of the RBH deconsolidation.

(2) Included in marketing, administration and research costs at the consolidated operating income level.

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.

Net revenues, excluding unfavorable currency, decreased by 19.1%, reflecting: unfavorable volume/mix, due to lower cigarette volume, mainly in Argentina and Mexico; and the unfavorable impact of the deconsolidation of RBH shown in "Cost/Other"; partly offset by a favorable pricing variance, driven by higher combustible pricing across the Region (notably in Mexico). On a like-for-like basis, net revenues, excluding unfavorable currency, decreased by 9.2%, as detailed in Schedule 10.

Operating income, excluding unfavorable currency, increased by +100%, notably reflecting a favorable comparison, shown in "Cost/Other," primarily due to charges recorded in 2019 of $478 million related to: asset impairment and exit costs associated with a plant closure in Colombia, the loss on the deconsolidation of RBH, and the Canadian tobacco litigation-related expense.

Excluding charges and unfavorable currency, adjusted operating income decreased by 27.9%, mainly reflecting: unfavorable volume/mix, due to the same factor as for net revenues noted above; and the unfavorable impact of the deconsolidation of RBH, included in "Cost/Other"; partly offset by a favorable pricing variance; and lower marketing, administration and research costs (notably in Argentina). On a like-for-like basis, excluding unfavorable currency, adjusted operating income decreased by 8.4%, as detailed in Schedule 10.

Adjusted operating income margin, excluding currency, decreased by 3.8 points to 31.2%, as detailed in Schedule 8, or by 0.2 points to 31.0% on a like-for-like basis, as detailed in Schedule 10.

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 U.S. In addition, PMI ships a version of its IQOS Platform 1 device and its consumables to Altria Group, Inc. for sale under license in the U.S., where the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has authorized their marketing as a modified risk tobacco product (MRTP), finding that an exposure modification order for these products is appropriate to promote the public health. 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 product portfolio includes heat-not-burn and nicotine-containing vapor products. As of September 30, 2020, PMI estimates that approximately 11.7 million adult smokers around the world have already stopped smoking and switched to PMI's heat-not-burn product, available for sale in 61 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 and intellectual property; 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. Our business continuity plans and other safeguards in place may not be effective to mitigate the impact of the pandemic. 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 and lower demand for our products, particularly for our mid-price or premium-price brands. 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.

The impact of these risks also depends on factors beyond our knowledge or control, including the duration and severity of the outbreak, its recurrence in our key markets, 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-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. 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.
