Philip Morris International Inc. (NYSE:PM) is a tobacco company. Even though the company has built one of the most solid businesses in the world on the back of tobacco products like cigarettes, it has lately started to diversify into smoke-free products. The stability provided by the core business has allowed the firm to grow at a faster than usual pace in the conservative stock domain. For example, the firm projects HTU adjusted IMS volume growth of 10-12% for 2025, in line with 2024 levels. It also forecasts US ZYN shipment volumes of 780-820 million cans for 2025, reflecting an increase of 200-240 million cans over 2024 levels. Organic net revenue growth for 2025 is targeted at 6-8%, supported by strong growth in smoke-free categories and resilient combustibles.
