PMPhilip Morris International
Is the price fair?
A demanding price: at the top of its own P/E range and rich vs its sector.
Priced for ~7% a year FCF growth. Roughly in line with its three-year revenue growth of 9% a year.
Expensive vs its own history: P/E 28.9 vs a 15.0 median over 41 quarters (+93% vs median).
Sector median 16.6× across 78 covered peers. EV/EBIT counts debt as part of the price, so a cash-rich and a borrowed company can be compared on the same footing.
Unless marked, from derived, as of Jun 30, 2026.
