Chonghe Li, Zhongyu Wang, and Di Xie

Abstract—Contemporarily, the American tobacco industry has experienced a great development, which attracts plenty of investors. According to previous literatures, Philip Morris International has become an excellent investment target. The data of this paper comes from Philip Morris’ financial statements. In this paper, quantitative indicator analysis is carried out to illustrate the investment value of Philip Morris in terms of valuation, growth, profitability, and payout. Based on the analysis, Philip Morris is a well performance investment target because of the steady growth and the powerful profitability. Besides, as the rapid development of North American tobacco industry, some policies permit the sale of tobacco in North America, which lead to the promotion of Philip Morris. Therefore, Philip Morris will keep the occupation status in this industry, i.e., investors will be able to earn profit by investing in Philip Morris. Additionally, it might attract more investors in the future. This paper paves a path to quantitatively analysis whether a company is deserved to be invested based on evidence from Philip Morris.
