Item 8.01. Other Events.
On June 21 and 22, 2012, Philip Morris International Inc. (“PMI”) is holding a two-day investor meeting (“2012 Investor Day”). In connection with the 2012 Investor Day, PMI is issuing a press release (the “Press Release”) on June 21, 2012 announcing key highlights of the presentations made during the 2012 Investor Day.
A copy of the Press Release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference into this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Adjusted diluted EPS is not a U.S. GAAP measure. PMI defines adjusted diluted EPS as reported diluted EPS adjusted for asset impairment and exit costs, discrete tax items and unusual items. PMI believes it is appropriate to disclose this measure as it represents core earnings, improves comparability and helps investors analyze business performance and trends. Adjusted diluted EPS should be considered neither in isolation nor as a substitute for reported diluted EPS prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
The information on PMI’s website referenced in the press release, including the presentations made during the 2012 Investor Day, is not, and shall not be deemed to be, part of this Form 8-K or incorporated into any filing PMI makes with the Securities and Exchange Commission, except as expressly set forth in such a filing.
