PHILIP MORRIS INTERNATIONAL INC. (PMI) PRESENTS AT
MORGAN STANLEY GLOBAL CONSUMER & RETAIL CONFERENCE
NEW YORK, November 16, 2011 Philip Morris International Inc. (NYSE/Euronext Paris: PM) Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Louis Camilleri, addresses investors today at the Morgan Stanley Global Consumer & Retail Conference in New York.
The presentation and Q&A session are being webcast live at www.pmi.com, in a listen-only mode, beginning at approximately 12 Noon Eastern Time. An archived copy of the webcast, together with slides, will be available on the same site.
The presentation includes the following key highlights:
| PMI announces that, for the full year 2011, it expects to achieve a reported diluted EPS of at least $4.85, up from its previously disclosed guidance range of $4.75 to $4.80. Compared to our adjusted diluted EPS of $3.87 in 2010, this represents a growth rate of approximately 25.0%, or 20.0% after excluding an expected favorable currency variance of approximately 20 cents for the full year; |
| Barring any unforeseen major disruption, PMI expects to again meet its mid to long-term constant currency annual adjusted diluted EPS growth target of 10% to 12% in 2012; |
| Over the next five years, PMI expects cigarette industry volume outside the USA to increase up to 1.3% a year, driven by growth in China and non-OECD markets. The forecast trend for the industry, excluding China and the USA, is between stability and a 1.3% annual decline, an improved outlook compared to previous forecasts; PMI expects to continue to outperform the industry thanks to its excellent business momentum; |
| PMI believes it will exit 2011 with a national market share in Japan of approximately 28.5%; |
| On a year-to-date basis through September, 2011, PMI has exceeded $1.6 billion in pricing variance and expects a favorable pricing environment to continue in 2012; |
| PMI will comfortably surpass its targeted annual pretax cost savings of $250 million for 2011; |
| On a year-to-date basis through September, 2011, PMI has generated $9.0 billion in free cash flow, thus already surpassing its full year 2010 total of $8.7 billion; and |
| Since PMIs spin-off in March 2008, the company has increased its annual dividend by 67.4% to $3.08 per share and has returned nearly $35 billion to its shareholders through dividends and share repurchases. |
