Philip Morris International Inc. (PM) has been seeing a promising trend with its shares outperforming its competitors despite several losses. This is catalyzed by a strong third quarter, driven by leaps in revenues achieved primarily through smoke-free products. Other notable factors contributing to this include: a steady growth pattern, making the company 'a growth stock again'; a Q3 2024 outlook that surpassed Wall Street estimates; and a significant dividend increase. The CEO, Stacey Kennedy, has been under the spotlight for her leadership in North America during this period of growth. The company has also taken steps towards expansion, evidenced by the creation of new job opportunities through a $600 Million investment in a manufacturing facility in Aurora, Colorado. Their core product, 'Zyn', a nicotine pouch, has seen a surge in sales, indicating favorable market reception. Nevertheless, there have been some movements away from the stock, particularly from a few investment advisors and management firms. PM’s achievements were slightly marred by insider selling and a certain misdemeanour report revolving around the disposal of an inhaler company after facing backlash.
