Philip Morris's overall stock score is driven by a robust financial performance with strong profitability and cash flow, alongside positive earnings call highlights. However, significant leverage and negative equity present risks. Technical analysis indicates bearish trends, and the valuation reflects a relatively high P/E ratio, though supported by a good dividend yield.

Philip Morris: Strong EPS Growth and Smoke-Free Segment Drive Buy RatingWe note that HTU shipments were better than expected in the quarter at 38.8 bn units, which exceeded the high end of guidance. Currency also looks to have played a role in the revenue miss, as it provided just a 30 bps tailwind to reported results (vs. our expectation for a 2.4 pt benefit). As a reminder, the company had been guiding for currency to provide a 4 pt benefit to adj. EPS in the quarter, which came in meaningfully lower at just a 1.3 pt benefit. As such, despite continued weakening of the U.S. dollar over the course of the quarter, PM held its guidance for currency to remain a 10 cent benefit for the full year.
