Philip Morris International Inc. (PMI) Presents at the Consumer Analyst Group of New York (CAGNY) Conference

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Feb. 23, 2012-- Regulatory News:

Philip Morris International Inc.’s (NYSE / Paris Euronext: PM) Chief Financial Officer, Hermann Waldemer, addresses investors today at the CAGNY Conference in Boca Raton, Florida.

The presentation and Q&A session are being webcast live, in a listen-only mode, beginning at approximately 9:15 a.m. ET, at www.pmi.com. An archived copy of the webcast, together with presentation remarks and slides, will be available on the same site.

The presentation’s key focus is on the elements that define PMI, notably its: commitment to shareholder value; world-class portfolio of brands; global footprint; and strong free cash flow generation. The presentation also highlights some of the principal drivers of its ability to deliver solid and reliable results.

PMI also reaffirms its guidance, announced on February 9, for 2012 full-year reported diluted earnings per share to be in a range of $5.25 to $5.35, at prevailing exchange rates at that time, versus $4.85 in 2011, resulting in an anticipated unfavorable currency impact of approximately $0.10 for 2012. Excluding the unfavorable currency impact, reported diluted earnings per share are projected to increase by approximately 10% to 12% versus reported diluted earnings per share in 2011, or by approximately the same percentages versus 2011 adjusted diluted earnings per share of $4.88.

Adjusted diluted earnings per share of $4.88 in 2011 is calculated as reported diluted earnings per share of $4.85, less a $0.02 per share benefit for discrete tax items, plus a $0.05 per share charge related to asset impairment and exit costs.

This guidance excludes the impact of potential future acquisitions, unanticipated asset impairment and exit cost charges, and any unusual events.
