Altria Reports 2019 Fourth-Quarter and Full-Year Results; Provides 2020 Full-Year Earnings Guidance; Revises 2020 - 2022 Adjusted Diluted EPS Growth Objective; Revises Terms of JUUL Transaction
Altria Group, Inc. (Altria) (NYSE: MO) today announces its 2019 fourth-quarter and full-year business results, provides guidance for 2020 full-year adjusted diluted earnings per share (EPS) and revises its adjusted diluted EPS objective for the years 2020 through 2022.
“Altria’s core tobacco businesses delivered outstanding performance in 2019. In addition, Altria exceeded its $575 million annualized cost savings target and increased the dividend for the 54th time in 50 years,” said Howard Willard, Altria’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.
“Despite the unexpected challenges related to our investment in JUUL, which led to impairment charges and reported losses, we made significant progress advancing and building our noncombustible business platform with the launch of IQOS and completion of the on! transaction. We enter 2020 with continued focus on harm reduction. We believe Altria’s enhanced business platform best positions us to succeed under various future category scenarios.”
As previously announced, a conference call with the investment community and news media will be webcast on January 30, 2020 at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time. Access to the webcast is available at www.altria.com/webcasts and via the Altria Investor app.

2 “EPS” is defined as diluted earnings (losses) per share attributable to Altria.
Cash Returns to Shareholders
Dividends:
- Altria’s current annualized dividend rate is $3.36 per share, representing an annualized dividend yield of 6.8% as of January 27, 2020 and an increase of 5.0% from 2018.
- Altria expects to maintain a dividend payout ratio target of approximately 80% of adjusted diluted EPS for the years 2020 through 2022. Future dividend payments remain subject to the discretion of Altria’s Board of Directors (Board).
Share Repurchase Program:
- Altria repurchased 16.5 million shares in 2019 at an average price of $51.24 per share, for a total cost of approximately $845 million.
- As of December 31, 2019, Altria had $500 million remaining in the current $1 billion share repurchase program, which Altria expects to complete by the end of 2020. The timing of share repurchases depends on marketplace conditions and other factors, and this program remains subject to the discretion of the Board.
Noncombustible Products Business Platform
IQOS Heated Tobacco System
- IQOS is now commercialized in the Atlanta, Georgia and Richmond, Virginia lead markets.
- Heatsticks are distributed across more than 500 retail stores in Atlanta and Richmond combined.
- There are now more than 100+ trained IQOS professionals to provide guided trials to adult smokers.
on! Oral Nicotine Pouches
- on! is now available in 15,000 stores nationally, including 3 of the top 5 chains for smokeless volume.
- Helix expects to begin manufacturing on! at the Richmond Manufacturing Center in first-quarter 2020.
Cost Reduction Program
- Altria achieved $600 million in annualized cost savings in 2019, exceeding the target $575 million annualized cost reduction program announced in December 2018 (Cost Reduction Program). The program included savings from workforce reductions, third-party spending reductions and the closure of Altria’s Nu Mark operations.
JUUL Investment
- Altria recorded a fourth-quarter, non-cash pre-tax impairment charge of $4.1 billion related to its investment in JUUL. This impairment is primarily due to the increased number of legal cases pending against JUUL and the expectation that the number of legal cases against JUUL will continue to increase. Since October 31, 2019, the number of legal cases pending against JUUL has increased by more than 80%. Altria has not made any assumptions, or drawn any conclusions, regarding the merits or likelihood of success of any of these cases, litigation is subject to uncertainty and it is possible that there could be adverse developments in pending or future cases. For 2019, Altria recorded a total of $8.6 billion in non-cash pre-tax impairment charges to its JUUL investment, bringing the value of its JUUL investment to $4.2 billion as of December 31, 2019.
- Altria now expects a resolution with respect to antitrust clearance in the first half of 2020.
Revised Terms for Investment in JUUL
Altria and JUUL agreed to revised terms governing Altria’s minority investment in JUUL, which include the following provisions:
- Altria and JUUL are focusing their work together to create compelling pre-market tobacco product applications (PMTA) based on rigorous scientific research and data-driven underage use prevention efforts. As a result, Altria will continue providing regulatory affairs services to JUUL, which includes supporting the company in preparing and submitting its PMTA. Altria will discontinue all other services by the end of March 2020 that were part of the original investment agreement.
- JUUL will, upon antitrust clearance from the U.S. Federal Trade Commission under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act, restructure its board of directors to consist of two directors designated by Altria, three independent directors, the JUUL CEO and three directors designated by JUUL stockholders other than Altria.
- Upon antitrust clearance, the restructured JUUL Board of Directors will add a nominating committee and a litigation oversight committee to its existing compensation and audit committees.
- Altria has the option to be released from its non-compete obligation if JUUL is prohibited by federal law from selling e-vapor products in the U.S. for at least a year, or if Altria’s carrying value of the JUUL investment is not more than 10% of its initial carrying value of $12.8 billion.
“This agreement is a continuation of the reset initiated by JUUL’s leadership team.” said Willard. “We look forward to working with the company under this structure to support JUUL’s commitment to working with regulators and submitting the best possible PMTA.”
For more information, see the Form 8-K that will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Expected Accounting Methodology for Investment in JUUL
Upon antitrust clearance, Altria expects to account for its equity investment in JUUL using the fair value option. Under the fair value option, Altria’s income statement will include any cash dividends received from the investment and any quarterly changes in the fair value of the investment. Quarterly changes in the fair value of the investment will be treated as a special item and excluded from adjusted diluted EPS.
2020 - 2022 Adjusted Diluted EPS Growth Objective
Altria lowers its compounded annual adjusted diluted EPS growth objective to 4% to 7% for the years 2020 through 2022 from its previously announced objective of 5% to 8%, primarily to reflect Altria’s current expectation for no equity earnings contributions from JUUL through 2022.
2020 Full-Year Guidance
Altria expects its 2020 full-year adjusted diluted EPS to be in a range of $4.39 to $4.51, representing a growth rate of 4% to 7% from an adjusted diluted EPS base of $4.22 in 2019, as shown in Table 1. Altria’s 2020 guidance reflects increased investments related to PM USA’s commercialization efforts for IQOS, Helix’s plans to manufacture and expand U.S. distribution of on! and one extra shipping day in the first quarter.
The guidance range excludes estimated per share charges in 2020 of $0.05 of tax expense resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (Tax Reform Act) related to a tax basis adjustment to Altria’s ABI investment.
Altria expects the 2020 full-year total domestic cigarette industry adjusted volume decline rate to be in a range of 4% to 6%, which includes the impact of federal legislation raising the minimum age to purchase all tobacco products to 21. Altria expects continued volatility across tobacco categories and will no longer provide a multi-year forecast for U.S. cigarette volume declines.
Altria expects its 2020 full-year adjusted effective tax rate will be in a range of 23.5% to 24.5%.
Altria expects its 2020 capital expenditures to be between $225 million and $275 million and depreciation and amortization expenses of approximately $240 million.
Altria’s full-year adjusted diluted EPS guidance and full-year forecast for its adjusted effective tax rate exclude the impact of certain income and expense items that management believes are not part of underlying operations. These items may include, for example, restructuring charges, asset impairment charges, acquisition-related costs, equity investment-related special items (including any changes in fair value for the equity investment and any related warrants and preemptive rights), certain tax items, charges associated with tobacco and health litigation items, and resolutions of certain nonparticipating manufacturer (NPM) adjustment disputes under the Master Settlement Agreement (such dispute resolutions are referred to as NPM Adjustment Items).
Altria’s management cannot estimate on a forward-looking basis the impact of certain income and expense items, including those items noted in the preceding paragraph, on its reported diluted EPS or its reported effective tax rate because these items, which could be significant, may be unusual or infrequent, are difficult to predict and may be highly variable. As a result, Altria does not provide a corresponding U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) measure for, or reconciliation to, its adjusted diluted EPS guidance or its adjusted effective tax rate forecast.
The factors described in the “Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements” section of this release represent continuing risks to Altria’s forecast.

Financial Performance
Fourth Quarter
- Net revenues decreased 1.8% to $6.0 billion, primarily due to lower net revenues in the smokeable products segment, partially offset by higher net revenues in the smokeless products segment. Revenues net of excise taxes was essentially unchanged at $4.8 billion.
- Reported diluted EPS decreased 100%+ to ($1.00), primarily driven by the impairment of JUUL equity securities and higher interest expense, partially offset by higher reported operating companies income (OCI), higher reported earnings from Altria’s equity investment in ABI, 2019 Cronos-related special items and favorable tax items.
- Adjusted diluted EPS increased 7.4% to $1.02, primarily driven by higher adjusted OCI in the smokeable and smokeless products segments and higher adjusted earnings from Altria’s equity investment in ABI, partially offset by higher interest expense.
Full Year
- Net revenues decreased 1.0% to $25.1 billion, primarily due to lower net revenues in the smokeable products segment, partially offset by higher net revenues in the smokeless products segment. Revenues net of excise taxes increased 0.9% to $19.8 billion.
- Reported diluted EPS decreased 100+% to ($0.70), primarily driven by the impairment of JUUL equity securities, 2019 Cronos-related special items and higher interest expense (which includes acquisition-related costs associated with the JUUL and Cronos transactions), partially offset by higher reported OCI, favorable tax items and higher reported earnings from Altria’s equity investment in ABI.
- Adjusted diluted EPS increased 5.8% to $4.22, primarily driven by higher adjusted OCI in the smokeable and smokeless products segments, lower spending as a result of Altria’s decision in 2018 to refocus its innovative products efforts and higher adjusted earnings from Altria’s equity investment in ABI, partially offset by higher interest expense.

Note: Retail share results for cigarettes are based on data from IRI/MSAi, a tracking service that uses a sample of stores and certain wholesale shipments to project market share and depict share trends. This service tracks sales in the food, drug, mass merchandisers, convenience, military, dollar store and club trade classes. For other trade classes selling cigarettes, retail share is based on shipments from wholesalers to retailers (STARS). This service is not designed to capture sales through other channels, including the internet, direct mail and some illicitly tax-advantaged outlets. It is IRI’s standard practice to periodically refresh its services, which could restate retail share results that were previously released in this service.

New types of smokeless products, as well as new packaging configurations of existing smokeless products, may or may not be equivalent to existing moist smokeless tobacco (MST) products on a can-for-can basis. To calculate volumes of cans and packs shipped, one pack of snus, irrespective of the number of pouches in the pack, is assumed to be equivalent to one can of MST.

Note: The smokeless products retail share results exclude international volume and oral nicotine pouch volume. Retail share results for smokeless products are based on data from IRI InfoScan, a tracking service that uses a sample of stores to project market share and depict share trends. This service tracks sales in the food, drug, mass merchandisers, convenience, military, dollar store and club trade classes on the number of cans and packs sold. Smokeless products is defined by IRI as moist smokeless and spit-free tobacco products. New types of smokeless products, as well as new packaging configurations of existing smokeless products, may or may not be equivalent to existing MST products on a can-for-can basis. For example, one pack of snus, irrespective of the number of pouches in the pack, is assumed to be equivalent to one can of MST. Because this service represents retail share performance only in key trade channels, it should not be considered a precise measurement of actual retail share. It is IRI’s standard practice to periodically refresh its InfoScan services, which could restate retail share results that were previously released in this service.

Altria’s Profile
Altria’s wholly-owned subsidiaries include Philip Morris USA Inc. (PM USA), U.S. Smokeless Tobacco Company LLC (USSTC), John Middleton Co. (Middleton), Sherman Group Holdings, LLC and its subsidiaries (Nat Sherman), Ste. Michelle Wine Estates Ltd. (Ste. Michelle) and Philip Morris Capital Corporation (PMCC). Altria owns an 80% interest in Helix Innovations LLC (Helix). Altria holds equity investments in Anheuser-Busch InBev SA/NV (ABI), JUUL Labs, Inc. (JUUL) and Cronos Group Inc. (Cronos).
The brand portfolios of Altria’s tobacco operating companies include Marlboro®, Black & Mild®, Copenhagen®, Skoal® and on!®. Ste. Michelle produces and markets premium wines sold under various labels, including Chateau Ste. Michelle®, 14 Hands® and Stag’s Leap Wine Cellars™, and it imports and markets Antinori®, Champagne Nicolas Feuillatte™ and Villa Maria Estate™ products in the United States. Trademarks and service marks related to Altria referenced in this release are the property of Altria or its subsidiaries or are used with permission.
More information about Altria is available at altria.com and on the Altria Investor app, or follow Altria on Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn.
Basis of Presentation
Altria reports its financial results in accordance with GAAP. Altria’s management reviews OCI, which is defined as operating income before general corporate expenses and amortization of intangibles, to evaluate the performance of, and allocate resources to, the segments. Altria’s management also reviews certain financial results, including OCI, OCI margins and diluted EPS, on an adjusted basis, which excludes certain income and expense items, including those items noted under “2020 Full-Year Guidance.” Altria’s management does not view any of these special items to be part of Altria’s underlying results as they may be highly variable, may be unusual or infrequent, are difficult to predict and can distort underlying business trends and results. Altria’s management also reviews income tax rates on an adjusted basis. Altria’s adjusted effective tax rate may exclude certain tax items from its reported effective tax rate. Altria’s management believes that adjusted financial measures provide useful additional insight into underlying business trends and results and provide a more meaningful comparison of year-over-year results. Altria’s management uses adjusted financial measures for planning, forecasting and evaluating business and financial performance, including allocating resources and evaluating results relative to employee compensation targets. These adjusted financial measures are not consistent with GAAP and may not be calculated the same as similarly titled measures used by other companies. These adjusted financial measures should thus be considered as supplemental in nature and not considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of historical adjusted financial measures to corresponding GAAP measures are provided in this release.
Altria uses the equity method of accounting for its investment in ABI and Cronos and reports its share of ABI’s and Cronos’s results using a one-quarter lag because ABI’s and Cronos’s results are not available in time to record them in the concurrent period. The one-quarter reporting lag for ABI and Cronos does not affect Altria’s cash flows. Altria accounts for its investment in JUUL as an investment in an equity security. If and when antitrust clearance is obtained, Altria expects to account for its investment in JUUL under the fair value option.
Altria’s reportable segments are smokeable products, including combustible cigarettes and cigars manufactured and sold by PM USA, Middleton and Nat Sherman; smokeless products, including moist smokeless tobacco and snus products manufactured and sold by USSTC, and oral nicotine pouches sold by Helix; and wine, produced and/or distributed by Ste. Michelle. Results for innovative tobacco products and PMCC are included in “All Other.”
Comparisons are to the corresponding prior-year period unless otherwise stated.
Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements
This release contains projections of future results and other forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties and are made pursuant to the Safe Harbor Provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Important factors that may cause actual results and outcomes to differ materially from those contained in the projections and forward-looking statements included in this release are described in Altria’s publicly filed reports, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 and its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the periods ended March 31, 2019 and September 30, 2019. These factors include the following:
- unfavorable litigation outcomes, including risks associated with adverse jury and judicial determinations, courts and arbitrators reaching conclusions at variance with our, our subsidiaries’ and our investees’ understanding of applicable law, bonding requirements in the jurisdictions that do not limit the dollar amount of appeal bonds, and certain challenges to bond cap statutes;
- government, including U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and private sector actions that impact adult tobacco consumer acceptability of, or access to, tobacco products;
- the growth of the e-vapor category and other innovative tobacco products contributing to reductions in cigarette and smokeless tobacco product consumption levels and sales volume;
- tobacco product taxation, including lower tobacco product consumption levels and potential shifts in adult consumer purchases as a result of federal and state excise tax increases;
- the failure by our tobacco and wine subsidiaries to compete effectively in their respective markets;
- our tobacco and wine subsidiaries’ continued ability to promote brand equity successfully; to anticipate and respond to evolving adult consumer preferences; to develop, manufacture, market and distribute products that appeal to adult consumers (including, where appropriate, through arrangements with, and investments in third parties); to improve productivity; and to protect or enhance margins through cost savings and price increases;
- changes, including in economic conditions that result in consumers choosing lower-priced brands;
- the unsuccessful commercialization of adjacent products or processes by our tobacco subsidiaries and investees, including innovative tobacco products that may reduce the health risks associated with current tobacco products and that appeal to adult tobacco consumers;
- significant changes in price, availability or quality of tobacco, other raw materials or component parts;
- the risks related to the reliance by our tobacco subsidiaries on a few significant facilities and a small number of key suppliers, including an extended disruption at a facility or of service by a supplier;
- required or voluntary product recalls as a result of various circumstances such as product contamination or FDA or other regulatory action;
- the failure of our information systems or service providers’ information systems to function as intended, or cyber-attacks or security breaches;
- unfavorable outcomes of any government investigations of Altria, our subsidiaries or our investees;
- a successful challenge to our tax positions;
- the risks related to our and our investees’ international business operations, including failure to prevent violations of various United States and foreign laws and regulations such as laws prohibiting bribery and corruption;
- our inability to attract and retain the best talent due to the impact of decreasing social acceptance of tobacco usage and tobacco control actions;
- the adverse effect of acquisitions or other events on our credit rating;
- our inability to acquire attractive businesses or make attractive investments on favorable terms, or at all, or to realize the anticipated benefits from an acquisition or investment;
- the risks related to disruption and uncertainty in the credit and capital markets, including risk of access to these markets both generally and at current prevailing rates which may adversely affect our earnings or dividend rate or both;
- impairment losses as a result of the write down of intangible assets, including goodwill;
- the risks related to Ste. Michelle’s wine business, including competition, unfavorable changes in grape supply and governmental regulations;
- the adverse effects of risks encountered by ABI in its business, foreign currency exchange rates and ABI’s stock price on our equity investment in ABI, including on our reported earnings from and carrying value of our investment in ABI and the dividends paid by ABI on the shares we own;
- the risks related to our inability to transfer our equity securities in ABI until October 10, 2021, and, if our ownership percentage decreases below certain levels, the adverse effects of additional tax liabilities, a reduction in the number of directors that we have the right to have appointed to the ABI Board of Directors, and our potential inability to use the equity method of accounting for our investment in ABI;
- the risk of challenges to the tax treatment of the consideration we received in the ABI/SABMiller business combination and the tax treatment of our equity investment;
- the risks related to our inability to obtain antitrust clearance required for the conversion of our non-voting JUUL shares into voting shares in a timely manner or at all, including the resulting limitations on our rights with respect to our investment in JUUL;
- the risks generally related to our investments in JUUL and Cronos, including our inability to realize the expected benefits of our investments in the expected time frames, or at all, due to the risks encountered by our investees in their businesses, such as operational, compliance and regulatory risks at the international, federal, state and local levels, including actions by the FDA, and adverse publicity; potential disruptions to our investees’ management or current or future plans and operations; domestic or international litigation developments, government investigations, tax disputes or otherwise; and impairment of our investments;
- the risks related to our inability to acquire a controlling interest in JUUL as a result of standstill restrictions or to control the material decisions of JUUL, restrictions on our ability to sell or otherwise transfer our shares of JUUL until December 20, 2024, and non-competition restrictions for the same time period;
- the risks related to any decrease of our percentage ownership in JUUL, including the loss of certain of our governance, consent, preemptive and other rights; and
- the risks, including criminal, civil or tax liability for Altria, related to Cronos’s failure to comply with applicable laws, including cannabis laws.
Altria cautions that the foregoing list of important factors is not complete and does not undertake to update any forward-looking statements that it may make except as required by applicable law. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to Altria or any person acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements referenced above.
