PHILIP MORRIS INTERNATIONAL INC. (PMI) REPORTS 2019 FIRST-QUARTER REPORTED DILUTED EPS OF $0.87 VERSUS $1.00 IN 2018, REFLECTING CURRENCY-NEUTRAL ADJUSTED DILUTED EPS GROWTH OF 15.0%;
REVISES 2019 FULL-YEAR REPORTED DILUTED EPS FORECAST TO AT LEAST $4.87 VERSUS $5.08 IN 2018, REFLECTING CURRENCY-NEUTRAL LIKE-FOR-LIKE ADJUSTED DILUTED EPS GROWTH OF AT LEAST 8%

NEW YORK, April 18, 2019 – Philip Morris International Inc. (NYSE: PM) today announced its 2019 first-quarter results and revised its 2019 full-year reported diluted earnings per share forecast.
2019 FIRST-QUARTER HIGHLIGHTS
•
Cigarette and heated tobacco unit shipment volume up by 1.1%
•
Shipment volume growth from each of PMI's top-five international cigarette brands
•
PMI's total in-market sales growth was 1.7%, driven by a 34.6% increase in heated tobacco unit in-market sales
•
Total international market share up 1.0 point to 28.4%
•
Total international heated tobacco unit market share of 2.0%, up by 0.5 points, driven by: EU Region at 2.1%, up by 1.3 points, Japan at 16.9%, up by 1.1 points, Russia at 3.1%, up by 2.6 points, and Korea flat at 7.3%
"Our first-quarter results represent a promising start to the year, underpinned by a robust performance from our combustible portfolio and strong share growth from our smoke-free products, notably in Japan, Russia and across the EU. Indeed, we achieved an important milestone in the quarter, reaching more than 10 million IQOS users worldwide," said André Calantzopoulos, Chief Executive Officer.
"While our reported results were impacted by previously disclosed charges related to our Canadian subsidiary, on a currency-neutral basis, net revenues, adjusted operating income and adjusted diluted EPS grew by 3.2%, 9.1% and 15.0%, respectively. Adjusted operating income margin, excluding currency, increased by 200 basis points to 37.2%."
"This is an encouraging performance and puts us on track to deliver against our full-year adjusted diluted EPS currency-neutral growth forecast of at least 8% on a like-for-like basis."

(c) Pro forma.
PMI revises its full-year 2019 reported diluted EPS forecast to be at least $4.87 at prevailing exchange rates. This full-year guidance reflects:
•
The net impact of the deconsolidation of PMI's Canadian subsidiary Rothmans, Benson & Hedges Inc. (RBH) under U.S. GAAP of approximately $0.12 per share based on final quarter-end figures (compared to the estimate of $0.10 previously disclosed on March 22, 2019), recorded in the first quarter of 2019,

- -2 -


which is a non-cash item, as well as the Canadian tobacco litigation-related expense of approximately $0.09 per share announced on March 4, 2019;
•
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;
•
Asset impairment and exit costs of approximately $0.01 per share related to a plant closure in Pakistan as part of the optimization of PMI's global manufacturing footprint;
•
An unfavorable currency impact, at prevailing exchange rates, of approximately $0.14;
•
A full-year effective tax rate of approximately 23%, reflecting the current analysis, interpretation and clarifications of the scope and impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act; and
•
A projected increase of at least 8%, 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.
Assumptions underlying this forecast, and PMI’s 2019-2021 targets, as communicated by PMI in its earnings release of February 7, 2019, and reiterated at the CAGNY Conference of February 20, 2019, remain unchanged on a like-for-like basis, except for 2019 operating cash flow, which, due to the impact of the deconsolidation of RBH, is now estimated to be approximately $9.5 billion, subject to year-end working capital requirements.
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. Factors described in the Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements section of this release represent continuing risks to these projections.

During the quarter, PMI's total shipment volume increased by 1.1%, principally driven by:
•
the EU, reflecting higher heated tobacco unit shipment volume across the Region, and higher cigarette shipment volume in Germany, Poland and Spain, partly offset by lower cigarette shipment volume in France and Italy;
•
Middle East & Africa, primarily reflecting higher cigarette shipment volume, notably Algeria, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Turkey, partly offset by lower cigarette shipment volume in PMI Duty Free; and
•
South & South East Asia, reflecting higher cigarette shipment volume, principally in Pakistan, the Philippines and Thailand, partly offset by Indonesia;
partly offset by

First-Quarter Impact of Inventory Movements
Excluding the net unfavorable impact of estimated distributor inventory movements of approximately 1.0 billion units, PMI’s total in-market sales growth was 1.7%, driven by a 34.6% increase in heated tobacco unit in-market sales, partly offset by a 0.2% decline of cigarette in-market sales. The 1.0 billion units of inventory movements reflected:
•
A net unfavorable impact of 1.3 billion heated tobacco units, mainly due to Japan and Russia; and
•
A net favorable impact of approximately 0.3 billion cigarettes, mainly driven by Saudi Arabia, partly offset by Japan, North Africa and PMI Duty Free.

Note: Sampoerna A includes Sampoerna; Philip Morris includes Philip Morris/Dubliss; and Lark includes Lark Harmony.

PMI's cigarette shipment volume was flat, despite the impact of out-switching to heated tobacco units largely from premium and mid-price cigarette brands, reflecting growth from PMI's five largest international brands, offset primarily by PMI's low-price Bond Street. PMI's cigarette shipment volume of the following brands increased:
•
Marlboro, mainly driven by Algeria, Germany, Indonesia, the Philippines, Saudi Arabia, Spain and Turkey, partly offset by Argentina, Italy, Japan, PMI Duty Free and Russia;
•
L&M, mainly driven by Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Thailand, partly offset by Russia;
•
Chesterfield, mainly driven by Mexico, Saudi Arabia and Turkey, partly offset by Argentina, Italy and Venezuela;
•
Philip Morris, mainly driven by Russia, partly offset by Argentina; and
•
Parliament, mainly driven by Turkey, partly offset by Korea.
PMI's cigarette shipment volume of the following brands decreased:
•
Sampoerna A and Dji Sam Soe in Indonesia, mainly reflecting the impact of retail price increases resulting in widened price gaps with competitors' products and the impact of estimated trade inventory movements following the absence of an excise tax increase in January 2019;
•
Bond Street, mainly due to Russia and Ukraine;

- -5 -


•
Lark, mainly due to Japan, partly offset by Turkey;
•
Fortune in the Philippines, mainly reflecting up-trading to Marlboro resulting from a narrowed price gap; and
•
"Others," mainly due to: mid-price brands, notably Sampoerna U in Indonesia, partly reflecting the impact of above-inflation retail price increases; the successful portfolio consolidation of local, low-price brands into international trademarks, notably in Mexico and Russia.
The increase in PMI's heated tobacco unit shipment volume was mainly driven by the EU and Russia, partly offset by Japan.
First-Quarter International Share of Market
PMI's total international market share (excluding China and the United States), defined as PMI's cigarette and heated tobacco unit sales volume as a percentage of total industry cigarette and heated tobacco unit sales volume, increased by 1.0 point to 28.4%, reflecting:
•
Total international cigarette market share of 26.4%, up by 0.5 points; and
•
Total international heated tobacco unit market share of 2.0%, up by 0.5 points.
PMI's total international cigarette market share, defined as PMI's cigarette sales volume as a percentage of total industry cigarette sales volume, was 27.1%, up by 0.7 points.

(1) Unfavorable Cost/Other variance of $45 million, excluding asset impairment & exit costs, the Canadian tobacco litigation-related expense and the loss on deconsolidation of RBH.
(2) Included in Marketing, Administration and Research Costs.
During the quarter, net revenues, excluding unfavorable currency, increased by 3.2%, driven primarily by a favorable pricing variance, notably in Canada, Germany, Indonesia, Japan and the Philippines, partly offset by Argentina, Saudi Arabia and Turkey. Unfavorable volume of cigarettes, resulting from geographic mix, was largely offset by favorable volume of heated tobacco units and favorable mix of cigarettes and heated tobacco units. The currency-neutral growth in net revenues of 3.2% in the quarter came despite a challenging comparison with the first quarter of 2018 in which net revenues grew by 8.3%, excluding currency, partly fueled by higher IQOS device shipments in Japan. In addition, net revenues in the first quarter of 2018 were not impacted at that point by the move to highly inflationary accounting in Argentina that became effective July 1, 2018. Combined, these two items unfavorably impacted the currency-neutral net revenue growth rate of 3.2% in the quarter by approximately 3.4 points.
Operating income, excluding unfavorable currency, decreased by 9.6%. Excluding the loss on deconsolidation of RBH, the Canadian tobacco litigation-related expense, and asset impairment and exit charges related to a plant closure in Pakistan as part of the optimization of PMI's global manufacturing footprint, adjusted operating income, excluding unfavorable currency, increased by 9.1%, primarily reflecting a favorable pricing variance and lower manufacturing costs, partly offset by higher marketing, administration and research costs, notably reflecting increased investment behind reduced-risk products.
Adjusted operating income margin, excluding currency, increased by 2.0 points to 37.2%, reflecting the factors mentioned above, as detailed in the attached Schedule 7.

In the quarter, the estimated total market in the EU decreased by 0.5% to 107.3 billion units, mainly due to:
•
France, down by 8.1%, mainly due to the impact of significant excise-tax driven price increases in March 2018 and 2019, as well as an increase in the prevalence of illicit trade;

- -8 -


•
Germany, down by 4.0%, or by 1.0% excluding the net impact of estimated trade inventory movements of competitors' products in the quarter, primarily reflecting the impact of price increases in March 2018; and
•
Italy, down by 2.9%, or by 1.7% excluding the net impact of estimated trade inventory movements, primarily reflecting the impact of price increases in 2018 and in February 2019;
partly offset by
•
Poland, up by 8.1%, primarily reflecting a lower prevalence of illicit trade; and
•
Spain, up by 2.7%, partly reflecting a lower prevalence of illicit trade.
PMI's total shipment volume increased by 2.9% to 41.8 billion units, notably driven by:
•
higher heated tobacco unit shipment volume across the Region, notably Italy, driven by higher market share; and
•
higher cigarette shipment volume in: Germany, primarily reflecting higher market share of cigarettes, particularly of Marlboro, benefiting from estimated favorable trade inventory movements in the quarter noted above; Poland, mainly driven by a higher total market; and Spain, primarily reflecting net favorable estimated distributor movements;
partly offset by
•
lower cigarette shipment volume, notably in France, mainly reflecting a lower total market, and Italy, primarily reflecting the lower total market, due mainly to the impact of price increases in March 2018 and February 2019, as well as lower cigarette market share due to out-switching to HEETS.

During the quarter, net revenues, excluding unfavorable currency, increased by 3.5%, mainly reflecting favorable volume/mix, principally driven by: favorable cigarette volume and mix in Saudi Arabia and favorable cigarette volume in Turkey; partly offset by lower cigarette volume, principally in PMI Duty Free, and a favorable cost/other variance mainly driven by the timing of other revenues. The favorable volume/mix and favorable cost/other variance were partly offset by an unfavorable pricing variance, mainly due to Saudi Arabia and Turkey, partly offset by Egypt.
Operating income, excluding unfavorable currency, decreased by 1.1%, mainly reflecting: an unfavorable pricing variance; partly offset by favorable volume/mix, reflecting the same market drivers as noted above, a favorable cost/other variance, as noted above.

•
Saudi Arabia, up by 8.1%, primarily reflecting a favorable comparison with the first quarter of 2018, which was down by 40.8% mainly due to the impact of retail price increases in 2017 and the first quarter of 2018 following the introduction of the new excise tax in June 2017 and VAT in January 2018; and
•
Turkey, up by 10.1%, or by 4.3%, excluding the net favorable impact of estimated trade inventory movements associated with expectations regarding excise tax and pricing changes in 2019 compared to 2018 following the excise tax increase in January 2019.

SCIENTIFIC UPDATE
PMI's E-Cigarette Study: A Step Further Toward Confirming Risk-Reduction
On March 14, 2019, PMI presented the results from a study on e-cigarettes at the 58th Annual Society of Toxicology Meeting in Baltimore. The study demonstrates that after six months, e-cigarette vapors with and without nicotine induced significantly lower biological responses associated with cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases than cigarette smoke. This study, which PMI believes is a first-of-its-kind study on this subject matter, assessed the biological response of mice exposed to e-cigarette vapors compared with that of exposure to cigarette smoke.
Background
The combustion of tobacco produces over 6,000 chemicals, of which almost 100 are identified as harmful or potentially harmful. The overwhelming scientific evidence links the exposure to these chemicals, rather than nicotine, as the primary cause of smoking-related disease. Therefore, in recent years, e-cigarettes have been gaining popularity as a potential alternative to cigarettes. Currently, however, there are limited data on the long-term disease risk profile of e-cigarettes or their components compared with that of cigarette smoke. In general, e-cigarettes consist of aerosol formers (propylene glycol [PG] and/or vegetable glycerin [VG]), nicotine, and flavor ingredients. Therefore, the study is relevant for products that contain these components. In contrast with cigarettes, e-cigarettes deliver nicotine without the smoke constituents that arise from the combustion of tobacco.
About the Study
This ApoE-/- mouse study was a six-month inhalation study designed to assess the impact of exposure to e-cigarette vapor (with and without nicotine and flavor) on the respiratory and cardiovascular systems. Female ApoE-/- mice were exposed to air, cigarette smoke, or three formulations of e-cigarette vapors (CARRIER: PG/VG/water; BASE: CARRIER plus 4% nicotine; TEST: BASE plus flavors) for three hours/day, five days/week for six months via a whole-body inhalation system. The study measured a number of disease endpoints, and the results indicate that after six months, e-cigarette vapor with and without nicotine and flavor:
 
•
Resulted in lower levels of lung inflammation, structural damage, and molecular changes in the lungs and induced lower atherosclerotic plaque formation and molecular changes in aorta and heart tissue compared to cigarette smoke;
•
The study also detected an effect of nicotine on pulse wave velocity (an expected effect of nicotine); however, when compared with cigarette smoke, the effect was significantly less for e-cigarette aerosol exposures (with nicotine at comparable concentrations and without nicotine); and
•
Overall, the study demonstrated that e-cigarette vapor induce significantly lower biological responses associated with cardiovascular and pulmonary diseases compared with cigarette smoke.

The full results of this study will be submitted for publication in a peer-reviewed journal. This preclinical mouse study does not pertain to a specific product, but represents a toxicological assessment of an e-vapor aerosol. This study is part of PMI's larger scientific assessment program that includes aerosol chemistry, toxicology, and clinical studies with human subjects adding to the totality of evidence already existing for e-vapor products. As previously disclosed, PMI plans to initiate a clinical study for its e-vapor products to measure selected biomarkers of exposure to harmful or potentially harmful constituents and assess changes in clinical risk markers.

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, smoke-free products and associated electronic devices and accessories, and other nicotine-containing products in markets outside the U.S. 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, 2019, PMI estimates that approximately 7.3 million adult smokers around the world have already stopped smoking and switched to PMI’s heat-not-burn product, which is currently available for sale in 44 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 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-K for the year ended December 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.

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 improves the comparability of performance and trends for these measures over different reporting periods.

•
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.
•
[REVISED] "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 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.
•
"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.
•
[REVISED] 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. 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 first-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 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," 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.
•
"Heated tobacco units," or "HTUs," is the term PMI uses to refer to heated tobacco consumables, which for PMI include the company's HEETS, HEETS Marlboro and HEETS FROM MARLBORO, defined collectively as HEETS, as well as Marlboro HeatSticks and Parliament HeatSticks.
•
[NEW] 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.
