RICHMOND, Va. - October 30, 2014 - Altria Group, Inc. (Altria) (NYSE: MO) today announced its 2014 third-quarter and nine-month business results, and reaffirmed its guidance for 2014 full-year reported and adjusted diluted EPS.
“Our business results are on track,” said Marty Barrington, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Altria. “We grew adjusted diluted EPS 6.2% in the third quarter behind strong income performance by our smokeable products segment, our companies’ leading premium brands and the strength of our diverse business model. Nu Mark continued its national expansion of MarkTen and continues to develop a robust product pipeline,” said Mr. Barrington.

Conference Call
As previously announced, a conference call with the investment community and news media will be webcast on October 30, 2014 at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time. Access to the webcast is available at altria.com or via the Altria Investor app.
Cash Returns to Shareholders - Dividends and Share Repurchase Program
In August 2014, the Board increased the regular quarterly dividend by 8.3% to $0.52 per share versus the previous rate of $0.48 per share. The current annualized dividend rate is $2.08 per share. As of October 24, 2014, Altria’s annualized dividend yield was 4.4%. Altria paid $952 million in dividends in the third quarter and $2.9 billion in the first nine months of 2014. Altria expects to continue to return a large amount of cash to shareholders in the form of dividends by maintaining a dividend payout ratio target of approximately 80% of its adjusted diluted EPS. Future dividend payments remain subject to the discretion of the Board.
In the third quarter of 2014, Altria completed the prior $1 billion share repurchase program. In July 2014, the Board authorized a new $1 billion share repurchase program, which Altria expects to complete by the end of 2015. During the third quarter of 2014, Altria repurchased approximately 6.4 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $42.87 for a total cost of approximately $275 million. Altria had approximately $778 million remaining in the current $1 billion share repurchase program. The timing of share repurchases depends upon marketplace conditions and other factors. The program remains subject to the discretion of the Board.
Innovative Tobacco Products
Nu Mark LLC (Nu Mark) continued its national expansion of MarkTen e-vapor products during the third quarter of 2014. MarkTen achieved distribution in approximately 80,000 retail stores, primarily in the western half of the U.S. As of September 30, 2014, MarkTen continued to be ranked in the top three e-vapor brands in the western U.S. based on retail market share. Nu Mark plans to further expand MarkTen in the eastern half of the U.S. and complete its national expansion in the fourth quarter.
2014 Full-Year Guidance
Altria reaffirms its guidance for 2014 full-year reported diluted EPS to be in a range of $2.54 to $2.59. Altria’s full-year reported diluted EPS guidance reflects the impact of the special items shown in Table 1.
Altria also reaffirms its 2014 full-year adjusted diluted EPS guidance, which excludes special items, to be in a range of $2.54 to $2.59, representing a growth rate of 7% to 9% from an adjusted diluted EPS base of $2.38 in 2013. Altria expects stronger adjusted diluted EPS growth in the fourth quarter as compared to the first three quarters in 2014, driven by several factors, including a significantly lower fourth-quarter effective tax rate on operations compared to the fourth quarter of 2013 resulting from
2
Altria’s 2013 debt tender offer, and lower fourth-quarter costs in the smokeable products segment due to the end of the federal tobacco quota buy-out payments.
The factors described in the Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements section of this release represent continuing risks to this forecast. Reconciliations of full-year adjusted to reported diluted EPS are shown in Table 1.

ALTRIA GROUP, INC.
Altria reports its financial results, including diluted EPS, in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). Altria’s management reviews OCI, which is defined as operating income before corporate expenses and amortization of intangibles, to evaluate the performance of, and allocate resources to, the segments. Altria’s management also reviews OCI, operating margins and diluted EPS on an adjusted basis, which excludes certain income and expense items that management believes are not part of underlying operations. These items may include, for example, loss on early extinguishment of debt, restructuring charges, SABMiller plc (SABMiller) special items, certain tax items, charges associated with tobacco and health litigation items, and settlements of, and determinations made in connection with, certain non-participating manufacturer (NPM) adjustment disputes (such settlements and determinations are referred to collectively as NPM Adjustment Items). Altria’s management does not view any of these special items to be part of Altria’s sustainable results as they may be highly variable and difficult to predict and can distort underlying business trends and results. Altria’s management also reviews income tax rates on an adjusted basis. Altria’s effective tax rate on operations may exclude certain tax items from its reported effective tax rate. Altria’s management believes that these adjusted measures provide useful insight into underlying business trends and results and provide a more meaningful comparison of year-over-year results. Altria’s management uses adjusted measures for planning, forecasting and evaluating business and financial performance, including allocating resources
3
and evaluating results relative to employee compensation targets. These adjusted financial measures are not consistent with GAAP, and should thus be considered as supplemental in nature and not considered in isolation or as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. Reconciliations of adjusted measures to corresponding GAAP measures are provided in the release. Comparisons are to the corresponding prior-year period unless otherwise stated.
Altria’s reportable segments are smokeable products, manufactured and sold by Philip Morris USA Inc. (PM USA) and John Middleton Co. (Middleton); smokeless products, manufactured and sold by U.S. Smokeless Tobacco Company LLC (USSTC) and PM USA; and wine, produced and/or distributed by Ste. Michelle Wine Estates Ltd. (Ste. Michelle).
Altria’s 2014 third-quarter net revenues decreased by 0.9% to $6.5 billion. For the first nine months of 2014, Altria’s net revenues decreased by 0.7% to $18.3 billion. Altria’s revenues net of excise taxes of $4.8 billion and $13.3 billion were essentially unchanged for the third quarter and for the first nine months of 2014, respectively.
Altria’s 2014 third-quarter reported diluted EPS increased 1.4% to $0.71 driven by higher earnings from Altria’s equity investment in SABMiller, lower interest and other debt expense, a lower tax rate and fewer shares outstanding. These factors were mostly offset by gains on asset sales in 2013 at Philip Morris Capital Corporation (PMCC) and higher investment in innovative tobacco products in 2014. Altria’s third-quarter adjusted diluted EPS, which excludes the special items shown in Table 2, increased 6.2% to $0.69 primarily driven by higher adjusted OCI in the smokeable products segment, lower interest and other debt expense, a lower tax rate and fewer shares outstanding. These factors were partially offset by gains on asset sales in 2013 at PMCC and higher investment in innovative tobacco products in 2014.
For the first nine months of 2014, Altria’s reported diluted EPS decreased 4.5% to $1.93 primarily driven by lower OCI in the smokeable products segment resulting from PM USA’s NPM Adjustment Items during the first nine months of 2013. Lower gains on asset sales at PMCC and higher investment in innovative tobacco products also contributed to lower reported diluted EPS for the first nine months of 2014. These factors were partially offset by lower interest and other debt expense, higher OCI from the smokeless products segment, a lower tax rate and fewer shares outstanding. Altria’s first-nine months adjusted diluted EPS grew 5.5% to $1.91, primarily due to higher adjusted OCI in the smokeable and smokeless products segments, lower interest and other debt expense, a lower tax rate and fewer shares outstanding. These factors were partially offset by lower gains on asset sales at PMCC and higher investment in innovative tobacco products.

SMOKEABLE PRODUCTS
The smokeable products segment delivered strong adjusted OCI and adjusted OCI margin growth in both the third quarter and first nine months of 2014, primarily through higher pricing. PM USA grew Marlboro’s and its total cigarette category retail share in both the third quarter and first nine months.
The smokeable products segment’s net revenues increased 1.0% for the third quarter and were essentially unchanged for the first nine months driven by higher pricing mostly offset by lower volume. Revenues net of excise taxes increased 2.7% in the third quarter and 1.6% in the first nine months.
The smokeable products segment’s 2014 third-quarter reported OCI increased 0.8% primarily due to higher pricing, which was mostly offset by NPM Adjustment Items in 2013 and lower reported shipment volume. Adjusted OCI, which is calculated excluding the special items identified in Table 3, grew 9.0% and adjusted OCI margins expanded 2.5 percentage points to 44.3%.
For the first nine months of 2014, the smokeable products segment’s reported OCI decreased 5.7% primarily driven by the impact of NPM Adjustment Items in the first nine months of 2013 and lower reported shipment volume, partially offset by higher pricing. Adjusted OCI, which excludes the special items shown in Table 3, grew 6.3% primarily due to higher pricing, partially offset by lower reported shipment volume. Adjusted OCI margins expanded 2.0 percentage points in the first nine months of 2014 to 44.2%. Table 3 summarizes revenues and OCI for the smokeable products segment.

PM USA’s 2014 third-quarter reported domestic cigarettes shipment volume decreased 2.8%, driven by the industry’s decline, partially offset by retail share gains. For the first nine months of 2014, PM USA’s reported domestic cigarettes shipment volume decreased 3.5% primarily due to the same factors. When adjusted for trade inventory changes and other factors, PM USA estimates that its third-quarter and first-nine months domestic cigarettes shipment volume decreased approximately 3% and 3.5%, respectively, and that total industry cigarette volumes declined approximately 3.5% in the third quarter and 4% for the first nine months of 2014.
Middleton’s reported cigars shipment volume increased 8.4% for the third quarter and 6.8% for the first nine months of 2014, driven by Black & Mild’s strong performance in the tipped cigars segment, including Black & Mild Jazz. Table 4 summarizes smokeable products segment volume performance.
Note: Cigarettes volume includes units sold as well as promotional units, but excludes units sold in Puerto Rico and U.S. Territories, to overseas military and by Philip Morris Duty Free Inc., none of which, individually or in the aggregate, is material to the smokeable products segment.

Marlboro gained 0.1 retail share point in both the third quarter and for the first nine months of 2014. PM USA grew its total retail share in the third quarter by 0.2 points and 0.3 points for the first nine months due to gains by Marlboro, and L&M in Discount, partially offset by share losses on other portfolio brands.
In the machine-made large cigars category, Black & Mild’s retail share was unchanged in the third quarter and declined 0.2 points for the first nine months of 2014. Table 5 summarizes retail share performance by PM USA in cigarettes and Middleton in machine-made large cigars.

Note: Retail share results for cigarettes are based on data from IRI/MSAi, a tracking service that uses a sample of stores and certain wholesale shipments to project market share and depict share trends. Retail share results for cigars are based on data from IRI InfoScan, a tracking service that uses a sample of stores to project market share and depict share trends. Both services track sales in the Food, Drug and Mass Merchandisers (including Wal-Mart), Convenience, Military, Dollar Store and Club trade classes. For other trade classes selling cigarettes, retail share is based on shipments from wholesalers to retailers (STARS). These services are not designed to capture sales through other channels, including the Internet, direct mail and some illicitly tax-advantaged outlets. Retail share results for cigars are based on data for machine-made large cigars. Middleton defines machine-made large cigars as cigars, made by machine, that weigh greater than three pounds per thousand, except cigars sold at retail in packages of 20 cigars. Because the cigars service represents retail share performance only in key trade channels, it should not be considered a precise measurement of actual retail share. It is IRI’s standard practice to periodically refresh its services, which could restate retail share results that were previously released in these services.
SMOKELESS PRODUCTS
In both the third quarter and for the first nine months of 2014, USSTC and PM USA grew adjusted OCI and expanded adjusted OCI margins. USSTC also increased Copenhagen and Skoal’s combined retail share in both periods.
The smokeless products segment’s 2014 third-quarter net revenues decreased 3.9% driven by lower volumes and higher promotional investments, partially offset by higher pricing. For the first nine months, net revenues grew 0.9% driven by higher pricing, partially offset by higher promotional spending. The smokeless products segment’s revenues net of excise taxes decreased 4.0% in the third quarter and increased 0.5% for the first nine months of 2014.
The smokeless products segment’s 2014 third-quarter reported OCI increased 1.1%, primarily driven by higher pricing and lower costs, partially offset by lower volume and higher promotional

spending. For the first nine months reported OCI grew 4.6%, primarily driven by higher pricing, partially offset by higher promotional spending. Adjusted OCI for the smokeless products segment, which excludes the special items shown in Table 6, grew 0.7% in the third quarter and 4.4% for the first nine months of 2014. Adjusted OCI margins for the smokeless products segment expanded 3.1 percentage points to 64.9% in the third quarter and 2.4 percentage points to 64.6% for the first nine months of 2014.

USSTC and PM USA’s combined reported domestic smokeless products shipment volume decreased 4.6% in the third quarter of 2014 primarily driven by one less shipping week. USSTC and PM USA’s combined reported domestic smokeless products shipment volume increased 0.7% for the first nine months of 2014, as volume growth in Copenhagen was mostly offset by declines in Skoal and Other portfolio brands. Copenhagen and Skoal’s combined reported shipment volume decreased 4.1% in the third quarter and increased 1.1% for the first nine months of 2014.
After adjusting for calendar differences and trade inventory changes, USSTC and PM USA estimate that their combined domestic smokeless products shipment volume grew approximately 2.5% in the third quarter and 3% in the first nine months of 2014. USSTC and PM USA estimate that the smokeless products category volume grew approximately 3% over the last 12 months, reflecting slower industry volume growth in the past two quarters.

Copenhagen and Skoal’s combined retail share increased 0.4 share points to 51.3% in the third quarter of 2014, the highest combined retail share since the acquisition of UST LLC in 2009. Copenhagen’s retail share grew 1.4 share points in the third quarter and 1.6 share points for the first nine months, driven primarily by Copenhagen Long Cut Wintergreen.

USSTC and PM USA’s combined smokeless products retail share for the third quarter of 2014 increased 0.3 share points, as retail share gains for Copenhagen were mostly offset by share losses for Skoal and Other portfolio brands. For the first nine months of 2014, USSTC and PM USA’s combined smokeless products retail share was up 0.1 share point to 55.1%. Table 8 summarizes smokeless products retail share performance.

WINE
In the wine segment, Ste. Michelle grew 2014 third-quarter net revenues and OCI by 3.4% and 10.7%, respectively, primarily due to increased shipments. For the first nine months, net revenues grew by 4.1% primarily due to increased shipments and higher pricing. Ste. Michelle’s OCI grew by 11.0% in the first nine months due to higher pricing and increased shipments, partially offset by higher costs. Revenues net of excise taxes increased 3.5% in the third quarter and 4.3% for the first nine months of 2014. Ste.

Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements
This press release contains projections of future results and other forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties and are made pursuant to the Safe Harbor Provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Important factors that may cause actual results and outcomes to differ materially from those contained in the projections and forward-looking statements included in this press release are described in Altria’s publicly filed reports, including its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, and its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended June 30, 2014.
These factors include the following: significant competition; changes in adult consumer preferences and demand for Altria’s operating companies’ products; fluctuations in raw material availability, quality and price; reliance on key facilities and suppliers; reliance on critical information systems, many of which are managed by third-party service providers; fluctuations in levels of customer inventories; the effects of global, national and local economic and market conditions; changes to income tax laws; federal, state and local legislative activity, including actual and potential federal and state excise tax increases; increasing marketing and regulatory restrictions; the effects of price increases related to excise tax increases and concluded tobacco litigation settlements on trade inventories, consumption rates and consumer preferences within price segments; health concerns relating to the use of tobacco products and exposure to environmental tobacco smoke; privately imposed smoking restrictions; and, from time to time, governmental investigations.
Furthermore, the results of Altria’s tobacco businesses are dependent upon their continued ability to promote brand equity successfully; to anticipate and respond to evolving adult consumer preferences; to develop, manufacture, market and distribute products that appeal to adult tobacco consumers (including,
11
where appropriate, through arrangements with, and investments in, third parties); to improve productivity; and to protect or enhance margins through cost savings and price increases.
Altria and its tobacco businesses are also subject to federal, state and local government regulation, including broad-based regulation of PM USA and USSTC by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). Altria and its subsidiaries continue to be subject to litigation, including risks associated with adverse jury and judicial determinations, courts reaching conclusions at variance with the companies’ understanding of applicable law, bonding requirements in the limited number of jurisdictions that do not limit the dollar amount of appeal bonds and certain challenges to bond cap statutes.
Altria cautions that the foregoing list of important factors is not complete and does not undertake to update any forward-looking statements that it may make except as required by applicable law. All subsequent written and oral forward-looking statements attributable to Altria or any person acting on its behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements referenced above.
