Philip Morris International Inc. (NYSE / Euronext Paris: PM) today announced its 2013 first-quarter results.

“Our first quarter was relatively difficult, with our headline results marred by a number of known factors, including inventory movements, the 2012 leap year effect, currency and a slowly improving – but nevertheless substantial erosion in our – volume in the Philippines,” said Louis C. Camilleri, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

“Despite this apparent weakness, our pricing actions and market share momentum provide us with the confidence to reiterate our annual constant-currency adjusted diluted EPS growth rate target of 10-12%.”

2013 FIRST-QUARTER CONSOLIDATED RESULTS

In this press release, “PMI” refers to Philip Morris International Inc. and its subsidiaries. References to total international cigarette market, defined as worldwide cigarette volume excluding the United States, total cigarette market, total market and market shares are PMI estimates 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. The term “net revenues” refers to operating revenues from the sale of our products, excluding excise taxes and net of sales and promotion incentives. Operating companies income, or “OCI”, is defined as operating income before general corporate expenses and the amortization of intangibles. PMI’s management evaluates business segment performance and allocates resources based on OCI. Management also reviews OCI, OCI margins 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, discrete tax items and unusual items), earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization, or “EBITDA”, free cash flow, defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures, and net debt. PMI believes it is appropriate to disclose these measures as they improve comparability and help investors analyze business performance and trends. Non-GAAP measures used in this release should be considered neither in isolation nor as a substitute for the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Comparisons are to the same prior-year period unless otherwise stated. For a reconciliation of non-GAAP measures to corresponding GAAP measures, see the relevant schedules provided with this release.

2013 First-Quarter

PMI’s cigarette shipment volume of 204.9 billion units was down by 6.5%, reflecting: a challenging comparison to the first quarter of 2012 in which cigarette shipment volume grew by 5.3%, excluding acquisitions; the favorable impact of the leap year in the first quarter of 2012; the unfavorable reversal in the quarter of trade inventories built up in the fourth quarter of 2012 ahead of excise tax increases in 2013, notably in Turkey; in the EU, the unfavorable impact of excise tax-driven price increases, the weak economic and employment environment, the growth of the OTP category, and the increased prevalence of illicit trade; and, the unfavorable impact of the disruptive January 2013 excise tax increase in the Philippines which reduced PMI shipment volume by 10.0 billion units or 42.5%.

In the Philippines, PMI’s shipment volume was down by 42.5%, primarily reflecting: the unfavorable impact of the disruptive excise tax increase in January 2013, which resulted in a recommended retail selling price increase for premium Marlboro and low-price Fortune of approximately 60% and 70%, respectively; the reversal of the prior-year trade inventory build-up in anticipation of the tax increase; and, the unfavorable impact of higher prices on trade working capital requirements. Although industry cigarette shipment volume was estimated to have declined by 39%, Nielsen consumer off-take data indicates that total cigarette consumption declined significantly less. The difference reflects the unfavorable impact of the aforementioned trade inventory movements and the high prevalence of local non-duty paid product. Total industry cigarette shipments are estimated to decline 20-25% for the full-year 2013. Market share in the quarter declined by 5.0 points to 87.8%. Marlboro’s market share was up by 0.7 points to 21.6%. Share of low-price Fortune was down by 6.2 points to 43.5%.

PMI’s cigarette shipment volume in Latin America & Canada decreased by 7.5%, principally due to a lower total market in Brazil and a lower total market and share in Argentina and Mexico. Shipment volume of Marlboro decreased by 6.8%, mainly reflecting total market declines in Argentina, Brazil and Mexico, partly offset by market share gains in Brazil and Colombia.

Latin America & Canada Key Market Commentaries

In Argentina, the total cigarette market decreased by 4.9% to 10.8 billion units, largely due to the weakening of the economy. PMI’s cigarette shipment volume decreased by 5.3%. While PMI’s market share was down by 0.5 points to 74.6%, it was flat compared to the fourth quarter of 2012. The share decline was mainly driven by Marlboro and low-price Next, down by 0.8 and 0.5 points to 24.0% and 2.8%, respectively, partially offset by share of mid-price Philip Morris, up by 1.5 points to 40.1%.

In Canada, the total tax-paid cigarette market was down by 4.3% to 6.3 billion units, primarily reflecting trade inventory movements of competitors’ products in 2012. Although PMI’s cigarette shipment volume declined by 2.0%, market share was up by 0.7 points to 36.1%, with premium brand Belmont up by 0.1 point to 2.4%, and low-price brand Next up by 1.9 points to 9.1%, partly offset by mid-price Number 7 and low-price Accord, down by 0.1 and 0.4 points, to 4.3% and 3.0%, respectively. Market share of mid-price Canadian Classics was up by 0.1 point to 10.0%.

In Mexico, the total cigarette market was down by 2.7% to 8.1 billion units, primarily reflecting the impact of price increases in 2012 and January 2013. PMI’s cigarette shipment volume decreased by 3.9%. PMI’s market share declined by 0.8 points to 73.5%. Although share of Marlboro was down by 1.1 share points to 53.2%, its share of the premium price segment increased by 0.8 points to 81.1%. Market share of premium Benson & Hedges declined by 0.5 points to 5.8%. While market share of low-price Delicados, the second best-selling brand in the market, decreased by 0.3 points to 10.5%, the decline was offset by gains from PMI’s other local low-price brands.

Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements

This press release contains projections of future results and other forward-looking statements. Achievement of projected 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: significant increases in cigarette-related taxes; the imposition of discriminatory excise tax structures; fluctuations in customer inventory levels due to increases in product taxes and prices; increasing marketing and regulatory restrictions, often with the goal of reducing or preventing the use of tobacco 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; 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; 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. PMI’s future profitability may also be adversely affected should it be unsuccessful in its attempts to produce products with the potential to reduce the risk of smoking-related diseases; 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.

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, 2012. 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.
