Philip Morris International Inc. will host a live webcast on December 2, 2025, at 10:15 AM ET featuring CEO Jacek Olczak. This event is expected to draw significant investor interest in the company's future strategies.
As of June 2025, PMI's smoke-free products are sold in 100 markets and are used by over 41 million legal-age consumers. This demonstrates the company's proactive shift towards a smoke-free future, which is crucial for its long-term growth.
The smoke-free business accounted for 41% of PMI's total net revenues in the first nine months of 2025, indicating the company's success in reducing tobacco dependence and enhancing its market competitiveness.
Since 2008, PMI has invested over $14 billion in developing smoke-free products, aiming to completely end cigarette sales. This ongoing commitment to health and innovation positions PMI favorably in the evolving market landscape.

According to Wall Street analysts, the average 1-year price target for PM is 181.63 USD with a low forecast of 158.00 USD and a high forecast of 200.00 USD.

Reason
Jefferies analyst Edward Mundy downgraded Philip Morris (PM) to Hold from Buy with a price target of $180, down from $220. The firm sees limited re-rating potential for the shares in 2026. Philip Morris' competitor British American Tobacco (BTI) is driving category growth in U.S. pouches and Japan Tobacco is "competing more assertively" in heated tobacco, the analyst tells investors in a research note. Jefferies sees potential downside risk to the consensus estimates for Philip Morris.

BofA lowered the firm's price target on Philip Morris to $185 from $186 and keeps a Buy rating on the shares. Entering 2026, the largest unresolved question for staples remains consumption growth and valuations remain dispersed across the group, but "there feels little to get them off the sidelines in '26 until fundamentals signal a greater turning of the tide," the analyst tells investors in a year-ahead note for the consumer staples group.
