Philip Morris International Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
 
Note 1. Background and Basis of Presentation:
Background
Philip Morris International Inc. is a holding company incorporated in Virginia, U.S.A., whose subsidiaries and affiliates and their licensees are engaged in the manufacture and sale of cigarettes and other tobacco products in markets outside of the United States of America. Throughout these financial statements, the term “PMI” refers to Philip Morris International Inc. and its subsidiaries.
Basis of Presentation
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements of PMI are unaudited. These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles and such principles are applied on a consistent basis. It is the opinion of PMI’s management that all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the interim results presented have been reflected therein. All such adjustments were of a normal recurring nature. Net revenues and net earnings attributable to PMI for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire year.
Certain prior years' amounts have been reclassified to conform with the current year's presentation, due to the separate disclosure of investments in unconsolidated subsidiaries. For further details, see Note 17. Investments in Unconsolidated Subsidiaries.
These statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes, which appear in PMI’s Annual Report to Shareholders and which are incorporated by reference into PMI’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Note 2. Asset Impairment and Exit Costs:

Exit Costs
Separation Programs
On September 30, 2013, PMI announced its intention to restructure its global and regional functions based in Switzerland. The potential restructuring is expected to result in the elimination or relocation of approximately 170 positions. PMI expects to finalize its plans during the fourth quarter of 2013.

In another initiative, PMI recorded pre-tax separation program charges of $37 million and $21 million for the nine months and three months ended September 30, 2012, respectively. The 2012 pre-tax separation program charges primarily related to severance costs associated with factory restructurings.

Contract Termination Charges
During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, PMI recorded exit costs of $8 million related to the termination of distribution agreements. During the third quarter of 2012, PMI recorded exit costs of $5 million related to the termination of a distribution agreement.

Future cash payments for exit costs incurred to date are expected to be approximately $11 million, and will be substantially paid in 2014.
Asset Impairment Charges
During the third quarter of 2012, PMI recorded pre-tax asset impairment charges of $8 million related to factory restructurings.

Note 3. Stock Plans:
In May 2012, PMI’s stockholders approved the Philip Morris International Inc. 2012 Performance Incentive Plan (the “2012 Plan”). The 2012 Plan replaced the 2008 Performance Incentive Plan (the “2008 Plan”) and, as a result, there will be no additional grants under the 2008 Plan. Under the 2012 Plan, PMI may grant to eligible employees restricted stock, restricted stock units and deferred stock units, performance-based cash incentive awards and performance-based equity awards. Up to 30 million shares of PMI’s common stock may be issued under the 2012 Plan. At September 30, 2013, shares available for grant under the 2012 Plan were 27,211,610.
In 2008, PMI adopted the Philip Morris International Inc. 2008 Stock Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the “Non-Employee Directors Plan”). A non-employee director is defined as a member of the PMI Board of Directors who is not a full-time employee of PMI or of any corporation in which PMI owns, directly or indirectly, stock possessing at least 50% of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock entitled to vote in the election of directors in such corporation. Up to 1 million shares of PMI common stock may be awarded under the Non-Employee Directors Plan. At September 30, 2013, shares available for grant under the plan were 783,905.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, PMI granted 2.8 million shares of deferred stock awards to eligible employees at a weighted-average grant date fair value of $88.43 per share. During the nine months ended September 30, 2012, PMI granted 3.2 million shares of deferred stock awards to eligible employees at a weighted-average grant date fair value of $79.58 per share. PMI recorded compensation expense related to stock awards of $172 million and $191 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively and $48 million and $55 million during the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, respectively. As of September 30, 2013, PMI had $278 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested restricted and deferred stock awards. The cost is recognized over the original restriction period of the awards, which is typically three or more years after the date of the award, subject to earlier vesting on death or disability or normal retirement, or separation from employment by mutual agreement after reaching age 58.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, 3.2 million shares of PMI restricted stock and deferred stock awards vested. The grant date fair value of all the vested shares was approximately $157 million. The total fair value of restricted stock and deferred stock awards that vested during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was approximately $288 million.

Note 4. Benefit Plans:

Pension coverage for employees of PMI’s subsidiaries is provided, to the extent deemed appropriate, through separate plans, many of which are governed by local statutory requirements. In addition, PMI provides health care and other benefits to substantially all U.S. retired employees and certain non-U.S. retired employees. In general, health care benefits for non-U.S. retired employees are covered through local government plans.

Employer Contributions
PMI makes, and plans to make, contributions, to the extent that they are tax deductible and to meet specific funding requirements of its funded U.S. and non-U.S. plans. Employer contributions of $82 million were made to the pension plans during the nine months ended September 30, 2013. Currently, PMI anticipates making additional contributions during the remainder of 2013 of approximately $138 million to its pension plans, based on current tax and benefit laws. However, this estimate is subject to change as a result of changes in tax and other benefit laws, as well as asset performance significantly above or below the assumed long-term rate of return on pension assets, or changes in interest rates.

Non-amortizable intangible assets substantially consist of trademarks from PMI’s acquisitions in Indonesia in 2005 and Mexico in 2007. Amortizable intangible assets primarily consist of certain trademarks, distribution networks and non-compete agreements associated with business combinations. The range of useful lives as well as the weighted-average remaining useful life of amortizable intangible assets at September 30, 2013 is as follows:

Pre-tax amortization expense for intangible assets during the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, was $71 million and $73 million, respectively, and $23 million and $24 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012,

respectively. Amortization expense for each of the next five years is estimated to be $94 million or less, assuming no additional transactions occur that require the amortization of intangible assets.
The decrease in the gross carrying amount of other intangible assets from December 31, 2012 was due primarily to currency movements.
During the first quarter of 2013, PMI completed its annual review of goodwill and non-amortizable intangible assets for potential impairment, and no impairment charges were required as a result of this review.

Note 6. Financial Instruments:
Overview
PMI operates in markets outside of the United States of America, with manufacturing and sales facilities in various locations around the world. PMI utilizes certain financial instruments to manage foreign currency and interest rate exposure. Derivative financial instruments are used by PMI principally to reduce exposures to market risks resulting from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates by creating offsetting exposures. PMI is not a party to leveraged derivatives and, by policy, does not use derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. Financial instruments qualifying for hedge accounting must maintain a specified level of effectiveness between the hedging instrument and the item being hedged, both at inception and throughout the hedged period. PMI formally documents the nature and relationships between the hedging instruments and hedged items, as well as its risk-management objectives, strategies for undertaking the various hedge transactions and method of assessing hedge effectiveness. Additionally, for hedges of forecasted transactions, the significant characteristics and expected terms of the forecasted transaction must be specifically identified, and it must be probable that each forecasted transaction will occur. If it were deemed probable that the forecasted transaction would not occur, the gain or loss would be recognized in earnings. PMI reports its net transaction gains or losses in marketing, administration and research costs on the condensed consolidated statements of earnings.
PMI uses deliverable and non-deliverable forward foreign exchange contracts, foreign currency swaps and foreign currency options, collectively referred to as foreign exchange contracts, to mitigate its exposure to changes in exchange and interest rates from third-party and intercompany actual and forecasted transactions. The primary currencies to which PMI is exposed include the Australian dollar, Euro, Indonesian rupiah, Japanese yen, Mexican peso, Russian ruble, Swiss franc and Turkish lira. At September 30, 2013, PMI had contracts with aggregate notional amounts of $16.2 billion. Of the $16.2 billion aggregate notional amount at September 30, 2013, $3.5 billion related to cash flow hedges, $2.6 billion related to hedges of net investments in foreign operations and $10.1 billion related to other derivatives that primarily offset currency exposures on intercompany financing.
The fair values of PMI’s foreign exchange contracts included in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, were as follows:

Each type of hedging activity is described in greater detail below.
Cash Flow Hedges
PMI has entered into foreign exchange contracts to hedge foreign currency exchange risk related to certain forecasted transactions. The effective portion of gains and losses associated with qualifying cash flow hedge contracts is deferred as a component of accumulated other comprehensive losses until the underlying hedged transactions are reported in PMI’s condensed consolidated statements of earnings. During the nine months and three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, ineffectiveness related to cash flow hedges was not material. As of September 30, 2013, PMI has hedged forecasted transactions for periods not exceeding

the next fifteen months. The impact of these hedges is included in operating cash flows on PMI’s condensed consolidated statements of cash flows.
 
For the nine months and three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, foreign exchange contracts that were designated as cash flow hedging instruments impacted the condensed consolidated statements of earnings and comprehensive earnings as follows:

Hedges of Net Investments in Foreign Operations
PMI designates certain foreign currency denominated debt and foreign exchange contracts as net investment hedges of its foreign operations. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, these hedges of net investments resulted in losses, net of income taxes, of $163 million and $30 million, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, these hedges of net investments resulted in losses, net of income taxes, of $199 million and $70 million, respectively. These losses were reported as a component of accumulated other comprehensive losses within currency translation adjustments. For the nine months and three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, ineffectiveness related to net investment hedges was not material. Other investing cash flows on PMI’s condensed consolidated statements of cash flows include the premiums paid for and settlements of net investment hedges.

Other Derivatives
PMI has entered into foreign exchange contracts to hedge the foreign currency exchange and interest rate risks related to intercompany loans between certain subsidiaries, and third-party loans. While effective as economic hedges, no hedge accounting is applied for these contracts; therefore, the unrealized gains (losses) relating to these contracts are reported in PMI’s condensed consolidated statements of earnings. For the nine months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the gains from contracts for which PMI did not apply hedge accounting were $67 million and $66 million, respectively. For the three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, the gains from contracts for which PMI did not apply hedge accounting were $87 million and $190 million, respectively. The gains from these contracts substantially offset the losses generated by the underlying intercompany and third-party loans being hedged.

As a result, for the nine months and three months ended September 30, 2013 and 2012, these items impacted the condensed consolidated statements of earnings as follows:

At September 30, 2013, PMI expects $82 million of derivative gains that are included in accumulated other comprehensive losses to be reclassified to the condensed consolidated statement of earnings within the next twelve months. These gains are expected to be substantially offset by the statement of earnings impact of the respective hedged transactions.
Contingent Features
PMI’s derivative instruments do not contain contingent features.
Credit Exposure and Credit Risk
PMI is exposed to credit loss in the event of non-performance by counterparties. While PMI does not anticipate non-performance, its risk is limited to the fair value of the financial instruments less any cash collateral received or pledged. PMI actively monitors its exposure to credit risk through the use of credit approvals and credit limits, and by selecting and continuously monitoring a diverse group of major international banks and financial institutions as counterparties.
Fair Value
See Note 13. Fair Value Measurements and Note 15. Balance Sheet Offsetting for additional discussion of derivative financial instruments.

Note 7. Redeemable Noncontrolling Interest:
Philippines Business Combination:
On February 25, 2010, PMI's affiliate, Philip Morris Philippines Manufacturing Inc. (“PMPMI”), and Fortune Tobacco Corporation (“FTC”) combined their respective business activities by transferring selected assets and liabilities of PMPMI and FTC to a new company called PMFTC Inc. (“PMFTC”). PMPMI and FTC hold equal economic interests in PMFTC, while PMI manages the day-to-day operations of PMFTC and has a majority of its Board of Directors. Consequently, PMI accounted for the contributed assets and liabilities of FTC as a business combination.
The fair value of the assets and liabilities contributed by FTC in this non-cash transaction was determined to be $1.17 billion. FTC holds the right to sell its interest in PMFTC to PMI, except in certain circumstances, during the period from February 25, 2015, through February 24, 2018, at an agreed-upon value of $1.17 billion, which was recorded on PMI’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as a redeemable noncontrolling interest at the date of the business combination.

With the consolidation of PMFTC, FTC’s share of PMFTC’s comprehensive income or loss is attributable to the redeemable noncontrolling interest, impacting the carrying value. To the extent that the attribution of these amounts would cause the carrying value to fall below the redemption amount of $1.17 billion, the carrying amount would be adjusted back up to the redemption value through stockholders’ (deficit) equity. The movement in redeemable noncontrolling interest for the nine months ended September 30, 2013 was as follows:

The redeemable noncontrolling interest balance at September 30, 2012 was $1,276 million. The increase in redeemable noncontrolling interest from December 31, 2011 through September 30, 2012 of $64 million was due to $126 million of net earnings and $17 million of currency translation gains, partially offset by dividend payments of $79 million.
In future periods, if the fair value of 50% of PMFTC were to drop below the redemption value of $1.17 billion, the difference would be treated as a special dividend to FTC and would reduce PMI’s earnings per share. Reductions in earnings per share may be partially or fully reversed in subsequent periods if the fair value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest increases relative to the redemption value. Such increases in earnings per share would be limited to cumulative prior reductions. At September 30, 2013, PMI determined that 50% of the fair value of PMFTC exceeded the redemption value of $1.17 billion.
