Executive summary

Philip Morris International sells tobacco and nicotine products outside the United States. Its portfolio includes the Marlboro cigarette brand and smoke-free products such as heated tobacco devices and oral nicotine pouches. The company earns money by selling these products through distributors and retailers in many countries. It is shifting part of its business toward alternatives to cigarettes, while regulation and excise taxes strongly influence the industry.

Looking at the top line, revenue was $42.5 billion for the latest twelve months and it grew by 8.6% a year over three years. Operating margin was 37.7%, and return on invested capital is 37%. Its net debt to EBITDA ratio is 2.4 times. Shareholders receive a dividend with a yield of 2.9%.

StocksXray gives Philip Morris International Inc. an X-Ray Score of 49 out of 100 (high confidence), ahead of 41% of the S&P 500 stocks in its sector. Its strongest lens is profitability (63) and its weakest is valuation (24).

Our fair value blend is $103.44 (range $95.00 to $113.04). At $205.20 the stock trades 98% above that blend, so the label is "Overvalued" with high model uncertainty. Fair value is a range, not a price target.

How to read this report

Every number comes from SEC filings, end-of-day prices and the StocksXray models described on the methodology page. The X-Ray Score ranks each metric against the company's own sector. Fair value blends three models and carries a typical error of about 40%, so treat it as a range. Analyst ratings, price targets and earnings-call summaries are not part of this report. Educational research, not financial advice; read the disclaimer.
