Philip Morris International outlines smoke-free product expansion and organizational changes
PM
Product Launch
Guidance Update
Dividends
  • PMI’s smoke-free products now account for over 40% of total sales, are available in 100+ markets, and have delivered positive total volumes for five consecutive years by fully offsetting declines in combustible cigarette volumes.
  • The smoke-free category remains in its early stages, with significant upside potential in large markets such as India, Vietnam, and Turkey (each exceeding 100 billion annual cigarette units) once regulatory barriers are lifted.
  • The pouch segment (e.g., ZYN) is the fastest-growing nicotine category, and PMI expects robust growth into 2026, while awaiting U.S. authorization of its ILUMA heated-tobacco device to complete its multi-category smoke-free offering.
  • International IQOS volume is guided to grow 10–12% HTU IMS in 2025, underpinned by continued device innovation and expansion across existing and new markets.
  • PMI has reorganized into two business units (U.S. and International) with three reporting segments (International Smoke-Free, Combustibles, and U.S.), and is targeting ~2× leverage, strong cash flow generation, and progressive dividend policy, with organic growth as the primary capital allocation focus.

PMI outlines smoke-free growth and US expansion at Morgan Stanley conference
PM
Guidance Update
Product Launch
  • PMI reaffirmed its 2025 guidance at Q3 levels in a press release issued earlier in the day.
  • Smoke-free products now represent over 40% of PMI’s revenues across 100+ markets, with smoke-free volumes expected to grow 10–12% annually, outpacing combustible trends.
  • In the US, a $100 m Q3 marketing investment for ZYN alleviated supply constraints, driving ~30% category growth and ZYN capturing 50%+ of that growth, though such promotional intensity will normalize.
  • PMI targets ~10% US smoker penetration for IQOS Iluma within five years of launch, leveraging the latest device iteration and existing consumer awareness.
  • Following the Swedish Match integration and an $11.5 bn cash flow target for 2025, PMI expects leverage to decline to ~2x in 2026, supporting ongoing dividend growth and potential further shareholder returns.

Philip Morris International outlines smoke-free strategy at Morgan Stanley conference
PM
  • PMI’s smoke-free products are now sold in over 100 markets, account for over 40% of sales, and are expected to grow 10–12% globally versus an industry trend of around 10% growth.
  • The company offers three smoke-free platforms—heat-not-burn (IQOS), nicotine pouches (ZYN), and e-vapor—to meet different smoker usage occasions and drive accelerated migration away from cigarettes.
  • IQOS maintains share through its 11th consecutive year of growth, and despite headwinds such as EU flavor bans (e.g., Poland) and Japanese excise equalization, PMI expects the long-term heat-not-burn trajectory to remain intact.
  • For the fifth straight year, smoke-free volume gains have more than offset combustible cigarette declines, and large markets like India, Vietnam, and Turkey represent significant untapped opportunities once regulatory authorization is secured.
  • PMI reorganized post-Q3 into separate US and International business units, with reporting segments for International Smoke-free, Combustibles, and the US, to sharpen focus on its smoke-free transformation.

  • The company emphasizes a multi-platform smoke-free strategy—heat-not-burn (IQOS), nicotine pouches (ZYN) and e-vapor—to cater to different usage occasions and accelerate cigarette volume declines.
  • A $100 million marketing investment in Q3 spurred US pouch category growth of ~30%, with ZYN capturing over 50% of that growth despite premium pricing.
  • PMI targets a 10% share of the 28 million US smoker market for the upcoming IQOS ILUMA within five years, leveraging the latest device technology and existing awareness.
