MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Description of Our Company

We are a leading international consumer goods company, actively delivering a smoke-free future. We are evolving our portfolio for the long term to include products outside of the tobacco and nicotine sector. Our current product portfolio primarily consists of cigarettes and smoke-free products, including heat-not-burn, nicotine pouch and e-vapor products. Since 2008, we have invested over $16 billion to develop, scientifically substantiate and commercialize innovative smoke-free products for adults who would otherwise continue to smoke, with the goal of completely ending the sale of cigarettes. This investment includes the building of world-class scientific assessment capabilities, notably in the areas of pre-clinical systems toxicology, clinical and behavioral research, as well as post-market studies. In November 2022, we acquired Swedish Match AB ("Swedish Match") – a leader in oral nicotine delivery – creating a global smoke-free combination led by the companies’ IQOS and ZYN brands. As of April 30, 2024, we hold the full rights to commercialize IQOS in the U.S. after reaching an agreement to end our U.S. commercial relationship covering IQOS with Altria Group, Inc. in 2022. Following a robust science-based review, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") has authorized the marketing of Swedish Match’s General snus and ZYN nicotine pouches and versions of PMI’s IQOS devices and consumables - the first-ever such authorizations in their respective categories. Versions of IQOS devices and consumables and General snus also obtained the first-ever Modified Risk Tobacco Product ("MRTP") authorizations from the FDA. We describe the MRTP orders in more detail in the "Business Environment" section of this Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations ("MD&A").

With our smoke-free business now operating at scale across our regions, including growth from our U.S. business, PMI has implemented an evolved organizational model with two primary business units: International and U.S. This change was implemented effective January 1, 2026, and as a result PMI realigned its reportable segments accordingly. The four geographic segments have been replaced with the following three new reportable segments:

• International Smoke-Free;

• International Combustibles; and

• U.S. (including our wellness business unit, Aspeya).

Our cigarettes are sold in approximately 170 markets, and in many of these markets they hold the number one or number two market share position. We have a wide range of premium, mid-price and low-price brands. Our portfolio is comprised of both international and local brands.

Smoke-Free Business ("SFB”) is the term PMI uses to refer to all of its smoke-free products. SFB also includes wellness products, as well as consumer accessories, such as lighters and matches.

Smoke-free products (also referred to herein as "SFPs") is the term PMI uses to refer to all of its products that provide nicotine without combusting tobacco, such as heat-not-burn, e-vapor, and oral smokeless, and that therefore generate far lower levels of harmful chemicals. As such, these products have the potential to present less risk of harm versus continued smoking.

IQOS, ZYN and VEEV are the leading brands in our SFPs portfolio. As of March 31, 2026, our smoke-free products were available for sale in 108 markets.

With a strong foundation and significant expertise in life sciences, PMI has a long-term ambition to expand into wellness areas. The business strategy of our wellness unit, Aspeya, currently focuses on developing and commercializing primarily oral consumer wellness offerings. This includes medical and non-recreational cannabinoid products (including CBD), in line with applicable regulatory requirements, though any revenue related to cannabinoids is expected to be negligible in the near to medium term.

We use the term net revenues to refer to our operating revenues from the sale of our products, including shipping and handling charges billed to customers, net of sales and promotion incentives, and excise taxes. Our net revenues and operating income are affected by various factors, including the volume and mix of products we sell, the price of our products and changes in currency exchange rates. Mix is a term used to refer to the proportionate value of premium-price brands to mid-price or low-

price brands in any given market (product mix). "Mix" can also refer to the proportion of shipment volume in more profitable markets versus shipment volume in less profitable markets (geographic mix). "Other” also includes the currency-neutral net revenue variance attributable to the restructuring of distribution terms in certain markets.

Our cost of sales consists primarily of: tobacco leaf, non-tobacco raw materials, labor and manufacturing costs; shipping and handling costs; and the cost of devices produced by third-party electronics manufacturing service providers. Estimated costs associated with device warranty programs are generally provided for in cost of sales in the period the related revenues are recognized.

Our marketing, administration and research costs include the costs of marketing and selling our products, other costs generally not related to the manufacture of our products (excluding corporate expenses and other), and costs incurred to develop new products. The most significant components of our marketing, administration and research costs are marketing and sales expenses and general and administrative expenses.

Corporate expenses and other include certain other expenses related to foreign currency gains/losses and compensation expense related to restricted share units and performance share units awards, which were reclassified from cost of sales and marketing, administration and research costs.

Executive Summary

The following executive summary provides the business update and significant highlights from the "Discussion and Analysis" that follows.

Consolidated Operating Results for the Three Months Ended March 31, 2026

• Net Revenues** - Net revenues of $10.1 billion for the three months ended March 31, 2026, increased by $0.8 billion, or 9.1%, from the comparable 2025 amount. The change in our net revenues from the comparable 2025 amount was driven by the following (variances not to scale with quarterly results):

During the quarter, net revenues increased by 9.1%. Net revenues, excluding currency, increased by 2.7%, mainly reflecting: a favorable pricing variance mainly driven by International Combustibles; partly offset by an unfavorable volume/mix/other, mainly driven by lower International Combustibles and U.S. volumes, notwithstanding higher International Smoke-Free volumes.

Net revenues by product category for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025, are shown below:

Note: Sum of product categories might not foot to total PMI due to rounding

• Diluted Earnings Per Share - The changes in our diluted earnings per share (“diluted EPS”) for the three months ended March 31, 2026, from the comparable 2025 amounts, were as follows:

PMI carried out an evaluation, with the participation of PMI’s management, including PMI’s Group CEO PMI and Group Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of PMI’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, PMI’s Group CEO PMI and Group Chief Financial Officer concluded that PMI’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective. There have been no changes in PMI’s internal control over financial reporting during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, PMI’s internal control over financial reporting.
