Philip Morris International Inc. (NYSE / Euronext Paris: PM) today announced its 2012 second-quarter results.

"Despite the anticipated Japan hurdle and currency headwinds, we had a solid second quarter which underscored our sustained business momentum," said Louis C. Camilleri, Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer.

"Excluding the Japan hurdle, our year-to-date organic cigarette volume grew by an exceptional 3.3%. On the same basis, our currency neutral, reported and adjusted diluted earnings per share were up by a very robust 17.2% and 18.2%, respectively.

"Our broad geographic footprint, world-class brand portfolio and a strong pricing environment remain the cornerstone of our continuing ability to capitalize on growth opportunities around the world, whilst enabling us to weather uncertainty in those markets where economic conditions are still currently weak."

Since May 2008, when PMI began its first share repurchase program, the company has spent an aggregate of $24.4 billion to repurchase 449.9 million shares at an average price of $54.21 per share, or 21.3% of the shares outstanding at the time of the spin-off in March 2008.

During the quarter, PMI announced a new three-year share repurchase program of $18 billion, anticipated to commence on August 1, 2012, following completion of the existing three-year program of $12 billion which began in May 2010, and which will conclude ahead of schedule.

PMI has a share repurchase target for 2012 of $6.0 billion.

2012 Full-Year Forecast

PMI reaffirms, at prevailing exchange rates, its 2012 full-year reported diluted earnings per share forecast to be in a range of $5.10 to $5.20, versus $4.85 in 2011. Forecasted total unfavorable currency of approximately $0.27 per share for the full-year 2012 is up by an additional $0.02 per share compared to the unfavorable currency forecast previously announced on June 21, 2012. This additional forecasted unfavorable currency of $0.02 per share is expected to be fully offset by an anticipated improvement in business performance driven largely by Asia and EEMA. On a currency neutral basis, reported diluted earnings per share in 2012 are projected to increase by approximately 10% to 12% versus adjusted diluted earnings per share of $4.88 in 2011.

This guidance excludes the impact of any potential future acquisitions, unanticipated asset impairment and exit cost charges, and any unusual events.

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

2012 SECOND-QUARTER CONSOLIDATED RESULTS

In this press release, "PMI" refers to Philip Morris International Inc. and its subsidiaries. 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, operating 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 and discrete tax 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. 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. Comparisons are to the same prior-year period unless otherwise stated.

PMI's cigarette shipment volume was down by 1.2%, excluding acquisitions.

PMI's June year-to-date cigarette shipment volume was essentially flat.

Total cigarette shipment volume of Marlboro of 76.9 billion units was down by 1.5% in the quarter.

The total cigarette market in the EU declined by 9.7% to 132.2 billion units in the quarter, due primarily to: tax-driven price increases; the unfavorable economic environment, particularly in southern Europe, and the impact of related austerity measures; the growth of the OTP segment, notably in Greece, Italy and Spain; the prevalence of illicit trade, mainly in Greece, Italy and Poland; and the timing of Easter trade inventory movements.

EU Key Market Commentaries

In France, the total cigarette market was down by 5.9% to 13.6 billion units, mainly reflecting the impact of price increases in the fourth quarter of 2011.

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 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.
