- The analyst thinks that given the risk in the situation of Russia and Ukraine, the management will be forced to lower the FY22 outlook as Philip Morris garners 8% revenue from these places combined.
- Herzog also flagged potential headwinds from currency and user acquisition rates for its heated tobacco brand iQOS due to chip shortages and neo gas supply disruption.
- Philip Morris halted its Russian investments as global companies faced the heat to respond to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
