Philip Morris International, Inc. Analyst Notes
On April 17, 2014, Philip Morris
International, Inc. (PMI) reported its Q1 2014 financial results.
Total net revenues decreased by 4% YoY to $17.8 billion. PMI's net earnings for Q1 2014
were $1.9 billion or $1.18 per diluted share, compared with
$2.1 billion or $1.28 per diluted share in Q1 2013. Commenting on
the financial performance, André Calantzopoulos, CEO of PMI, said,
"Our first-quarter results were in line with our expectations,
given the known challenges we face in Asia and inventory distortions. While
currencies remain volatile, we have recently witnessed an
improvement in their unfavorable impact on our business, and
accordingly, together with the restructuring charge, we are
increasing our 2014 full-year reported diluted earnings per share
guidance by $0.07." The full
