The latest update is out from Philip Morris ( (PM) ).

On February 18, 2026, Philip Morris International used its appearance at the Consumer Analyst Group of New York Conference to showcase the scale and momentum of its transition toward smoke-free products, highlighting that annual smoke-free net revenues have reached about $17 billion across 106 markets and now account for roughly 42% of total net revenues. Management emphasized that several regions, especially Europe, are already majority smoke-free by net revenues, that overall shipment volumes have shifted from structural decline to low single-digit growth driven by smoke-free products, and that the wider cigarette industry outside China and the U.S. shows steeper declines in markets where smoke-free products are available, underscoring both PMI’s strategic repositioning and the growing regulatory and public-health acceptance of tobacco harm-reduction models centered on non-combustible nicotine options.

Spark’s Take on PM Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, PM is a Outperform.

The score is driven primarily by strong profitability and cash generation, reinforced by upbeat 2026 guidance and continued smoke-free momentum. These positives are tempered by balance-sheet risk (negative equity and high debt), overbought technical signals, and a valuation that looks premium versus the dividend yield.
