PART I
Item 1. Business.
(a) General Description of Business
Philip Morris Incorporated (the "Company"), a Virginia corporation, and its subsidiaries and
affiliates (collectively "Philip Morris") are engaged in the manufacture and sale of tobacco
products
(mainly cigarettes ), beer, soft drinks and industrial products and in community development. Philip
Morris, on the basis of unit sales and excluding two national enterprises, is the second largest
cigarette
company in the world and its principal brand, Marlboro, has been the world's leading cigarette brand
since
1972. Miller Brewing Company ("Miller"), a subsidiary of the Company, is the second largest brewing
company in the world.
Philip Morris is organized into six operating companies, consisting of the following divisions or
subsidiaries: (1) Philip Morris U.S.A., which manufactures and sells cigarettes in the United
States; (2)
Philip Morris International, which manufactures and sells tobacco products outside the United States
and
sells beer and soft drink products outside the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico; (3) Miller,
which
manufactures and sells beer in the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico; (4) The Seven-Up Company
("Seven-Up"), which manufactures and sells soft drink products in the United States, Canada and
Puerto
Rico, food flavors and colors in the Western Hemisphere and certain food products worldwide; (5)
Philip
Morris Industrial, which manufactures and sells various industrial products; and (6) Mission Viejo
Company, which owns and operates community development projects in California and Colorado. In
addition, a 77%-owned subsidiary of the Company owns all of the outstanding shares of Lindeman
(Holdings) Limited, the leading Australian winemaker.
On May 26, 1981, the Company acquired from Rembrandt Group Limited for $350 million (i) 50%
of the equity of Rothmans Tobacco (Holdings) Limited ("RTH UK"), which owns approximately 44% of
Rothmans International ple ("Rothmans"), (ii) £7,362,500 6.25% Convertible Senior Subordinated
Sterling/Deutsche Mark Bonds of Rothmans, (iii) £33,655,000 6.95% Convertible Junior Subordinated
Sterling/Deutsche Mark Bonds of Rothmans and (iv) certain tobacco trademark rights not owned by
RTH UK or Rothmans. As a result of the investment in RTH UK, the Company has obtained an indirect
equity interest of approximately 22% in Rothmans. Based on unit sales and excluding two national
enterprises, Rothmans is believed~ by the Company to be the fourth largest cigarette company in the
world.
The purchase price of the investment exceeded the equity in the net tangible assets acquired by $150
million. Su& excess is being amortized over a period of 40 years on a straight-line basis. For
additional
information concerning Rothmans, reference is made to the discussion under "International Tobacco
Products."
( b ) Industry Segments
Tobacco products (of which cigarettes accounted for 97.7% of sales in 1981) and beer represent
Philip
Morris's significant industry segments. The amounts of revenues, operating profit (together with a
reconciliation to consolidated operating income of operating companies) and identifiable assets
attribut-
able to each of the industry segments of Philip Morris for each of the last three years are set
forth in a note
to the consolidated financial statements on p. 51 of the Company's annual report to shareholders for
the
year ended December 311, 1981 and incorporated herein by reference.
(c) Narrative Description of Business
Tobacco Products
Philip Morris U'.S.A. is responsible for the manufacture, marketing and sale of tobacco products in
the
United States and Philip Morris International is responsible for the manufacture, marketing and sale
of
such products outside the United States (including United States possessions and territories ) and
for
exports from the United States.
Philip Morris's tobacco products are sold principally to wholesalers (including distributors and
government-owned organizations ), vending machine operators and large retail organizations. Product
quality, marketing and packaging are the principal methods of competition in the highly competitive
market for tobacco products. Philip Morris extensively advertises and promotes its tobacco products
through various media, although television and radio advertising of cigarettes is prohibited in
certain
countries, including the United States.
I

Philip Morris purchases leaf tobacco of various grades and types each year, primarily at auction.
The
tobacco is then graded, cleaned, stemmed and redried prior to its storage for aging up to three
years.
Large quantities of leaf tobacco inventory are maintained to support production requirements.
Tobacco is
an agricultural commodity subject to United States government controls, including the Tobacco Price
Support and Production Adjustment Program administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The
price of leaf tobacco has risen in recent years.
Domestic Tobacco Products
In 1981, Philip Morris's total sales of cigarettes manufactured in the United States, including
export
sales of 45.6 billion units, amounted to 244.9 billion units, an increase of 4.5% over 1980 (4.3%
excluding
export sales). The industry's estimated sales of cigarettes manufactured in the United States,
including
export sales, increased by 1.4% in 1981 over 1980. In recent years, the industry has experienced
only a
modest increase in annual unit volume. The following table sets forth the estimated industry sales
of
cigarettes manufactured in the United States, the Company's unit sales and its share of the industry
(including export sales in all cases ):

Philip Morris U.S.A.'s major cigarette brands are Marlboro, Benson & Hedges 100's, Merit, Virginia
Slims, Parliament Lights, Saratoga and Cambridge. Marlboro is the largest selling brand in the
United
States; Merit is one of the largest selling low "tar" brands in the United States; Benson & Hedges
100's is
the largest selling 100mm. brand in the United States; and Virginia Slims is the largest selling
cigarette
brand in the United States designed especially for women.
The fastest growing sector of the cigarette industry is the so-called low "tar" sector, generally
considered to consist of brands delivering 15 mg. or less of "tar" per cigarette. In 198'1, this
market
accounted for approximately 59.9% of United States industry sales, and Philip Morris U.S.A.'s low
"tar"
brands accounted for approximately 24.0% of such market. Sales of ultra-low "tar" cigarettes,
generally
considered to consist of brands delivering 6 mg. or less of "tar" per cigarette, now account for
approximately 9.8% of United States industry sales. Philip Morris's two ultra-low "tar" cigarette
brands,
Cambridge and Merit Ultra Lights, introduced in 1980 and 1981, respectively, accounted for 8.7% of
the
ultra-low "tar" market in 1981.
Current prices per thousand cigarettes of Philip Morris U.S.A.'s principal brands, including the
Federal excise tax of $4.00 per thousand, are $21.70 for 100mm. and 120mm. cigarettes and $21.20 for
other cigarettes (including two price increases totalling $1.70 during 1981 and a price increase of
$1.00 in
February 1982).
Excise taxes, sales taxes and other taxes levied by various states, counties and municipalities
affecting
cigarettes have been increasing in recent years. These taxes vary considerably and, when combined
with
the Federal excise tax, may be as high as 37 cents per package of twenty and may influence cigarette
sales.
International Tobacco Products
Philip Morris International is the largest United States exporter of cigarettes (45.6 billion units
in
1981, an increase of 5.8% over 1980) and markets its brands in more than 170 countries and
territories
through subsidiaries, affiliates, export sales organizations, licensees and other companies with
which it has
contractual arrangements.
World cigarette industry unit sales (excluding the United States ) were approximately 3.9 trillion
units
in 1981. Philip Morris International's share of the world market in 1981 was approximately 6.4%, up
from
2

6.2% in 1980. Philip Morris International has cigarette market shares of at least 15%-and in a
number of
cases substantially more than 13%-in at least 20 countries, including Argentina, Australia, Finland,
Italy,
Mexico, Pakistan, Switzerland and Venezuela.
Prices in many of Philip Morris International's markets are government controlled, and excise tax
increases, higher costs and government price restraints in a number of markets have restricted and
may
continue to restrict the operating income margins of Philip Morris International.
The principal activities of Rothmans are the manufacture and sale of cigarettes and other tobacco
products in Europe, Canada and Australia. Its principal cigarette brands include Rothmans King Size
Filter, Dunhill International, Dunhill King Size Filter, Lord Extra, Peter Stuyvesant, Belga,
Caballero and
Craven "A ". Martin Brinkmann AG, a subsidiary of Rothmans, and Philip Morris G.m.b.H., a subsidiary
of the Company, are, respectively, the third and fourth largest cigarette manufacturers in the
Federal
Republic of Germany. In 1981, the Company made a notification of its acquisition of an equity
interest in
Rothmans to the German Federal Cartel Office, which has issued a ruling opposing the transaction to
the
extent that it creates a deemed merger of Martin Brinkman AG and Philip Morris G.m.b.H. There are
procedures for review of the decision of the Cartel Office and the whole proceeding could be
protracted
over a period of years.
In addition, a complaint has been filed with the Commission of the European Economic Community
(the "EEC") alleging that the acquisition violates the competition laws of the EEC. The Company has
made submissions to the EEC refuting these allegations. No formal proceedings have been instituted
by
the EEC. Should any such proceedings be commenced, any decision could be appealed and the whole
process could extend over a number of years.
Smoking and Health; Legislation
Reports and speculation with respect to the alleged harmful physical effects of cigarette smoking
have
been publicized for many years and, in the opinion of the Company, have had and may continue to have
an adverse effect upon the industry's sales. In 1964, the Report of the Advisory Committee to the
Surgeon
General of the U. S. Public Health Service, essentially a review of the prior literature and
consisting
primarily of statistical association studies, concluded that cigarette smoking was a health hazard
of
sufficient importance to warrant appropriate remedial action..
In January 1979, the Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare released another report, principally
a compendium of research studies published since the 1964 report, restating conclusions similar to
those
contained in the 1964 report and asserting that a broader range of health hazards is associated with
cigarette smoking than~ those mentioned in the previous report. In January 1980, the Surgeon General
released a report on the health consequences of smoking to women, stating that women face the same
health hazards as men and that pregnant women and their unborn children face greater risks: In
December 1980, the Surgeon General issued a report stating that all cigarettes, including those with
the
lowest tar and nicotine content, were health hazards and recommended various Federal measures to
reduce smoking. In January 1981, the Surgeon General released another report reviewing changes in
the
composition of cigarettes in recent decades, repeating the assessment that smoking any type of
cigarette
involves health risks and recommending further study of the possible risks. In February 1982, the
Surgeon
General released a report reviewing the recent literature regarding cancer and concluding that
cigarette
smokers have overall mortality rates from cancer substantially greater than non-smokers and that
cigarette
smoking is a major cause or a contributing factor in the development of various cancers. In the
Company's
opinion, the 1982 report contains essentially no new conclusions.
Since 1966, a Federal statute has required a warning statement on cigarette packaging. The current
statement is: "Warning: The Surgeon General Has Determined That Cigarette Smoking Is Dangerous to
Your Health~" The Federal Trade Commission (the "FTC"), in annual and special reports to Congress,
has recommended that Congress enact legislation requiring stronger warnings and the funding of
antismoking messages in mass media. Such legislation is now, pending.
. Since 1971, television and radio advertising of cigarettes has been prohibited in the United
States.
Cigarette advertising in other media in the United States is required to include information with
respect to
the "tar" and nicotine content of cigarettes as well as the warning statement.
3

In 1972, the FTC approved consent orders requiring the Company and five other cigarette
manufacturers to include in specified types of advertisements and in a prescribe& format the warning
statement required by Congress for cigarette packaging. In 1981, the Company entere& into a consent
judgment which modified the 1972 order by requiring certain changes in the format of the health
warning
in advertising, including an increase in size in certain cases.
Lawsuits have been brought against asbestos companies seeking recovery for asbestosis and other
diseases allegedly caused by exposure to asbestos. Some of the defendants have asserted cross-claims
against the cigarette manufacturers on the theory that the claimed injuries were caused by cigarette
smoking or exposure to smoking. In the Company's opinion, the proof required to establish derivative
liability would be the same as that required in an action directly against a cigarette manufacturer.
To date,
all direct actions against cigarette manufacturers alleging that smoking or exposure to cigarette
smoke
caused disease have been unsuccessful.
From year to year, legislation has been proposed in Congress which, if passed, could be detrimental
to
the tobacco industry. The most significant bills relating to cigarettes which have been introduced
would:
increase the Federal excise tax on cigarettes; modify or eliminate the Tobacco Price Support and
Production Adjustment Program administered by the U.S. Department of Agriculture; require that a
series
of different health warnings be printed in rotational order on cigarette packages; require the
printing on
cigarette packages of the content of "tar", nicotine, carbon monoxide and other smoke constituents;
and
require the manufacture of cigarettes which minimize the risk of igniting fires in fabrics or other
materials.
Legislation potentially detrimental to the tobacco industry has been introduced from time to time in
various state and local legislative bodies. Such measures usually relate to the taxation of
cigarettes or to
regulation of the advertising, labeling, promotion, sale and consumption of cigarettes.
Enactments by regulatory agencies and other governmental authorities have restricted smoking areas
aboard certain common carriers and in certain public places, and anti-cigarette groups are now
concentrating on attempts to ban smoking in public places and places of employment.
In recent years, a number of foreign countries have taken steps to restrict or prohibit cigarette
advertising and to discourage cigarette smoking. In some cases, the restrictions are more onerous
than in
the United States.
Beer
Miller had an 8.1% increase in barrels sold in 1981 over 1980. Miller's major products are Miller
High
Life, the second largest selling brand in the United States, Lite, the largest selling
lowered-calorie beer and
third largest selling brand in the United States, and Ldwenbrhu, brewed and sold in the United
States
under a license agreement with LiSwenbritu Mtinchen AG and the second largest selling super-premium
beer in the United States.
The following table sets forth the industry's sales of beer, Miller's unit sales and Miller's share
of the
industry:

(a) Source: United States Department of the Treasury and Bureau of Census.
The beer industry is highly competitive, with the principal methods of competition being product:
quality, price, distributionj marketing and advertising. Miller engages in~ a wide variety of
advertising and
4

sales promotion activities. Miller's beer products are produced with ingredients generally available
in the
market. The production process includes fermentation and aging periods. After completion of the
process,
beer products are distributed primarily through independent beer wholesalers. The production process
is
conducted throughout the year and at any one time Miller has on hand only a small quantity of
finished
products. Containers (glass or cans ) for beer products are either purchased from suppliers or
produced at
Miller's own facilities..
Soft Drinks
Seven-Up manufactures and sells extract for soft drinks, principally 7UP, in the United States,
Canada
and Puerto Rico. Sales in more than 90 other countries are handled by Seven-Up International, an
operating division of Philip Morris International. 7UP is reported to be the third largest selling
soft drink
in the world. Seven-Up is also engaged in the manufacture and sale of finished soft drink products,
principally canned, bottled and pre-mixed 7UP and Diet 7UP and fountain syrup for 7UP and Diet 7UP.
Through subsidiaries, Seven-Up is engaged in the processing and packaging of lemon oil and frozen
concentrate for lemonade, as well as apple and other fruit-flavored products; the growing,
processing and
selling of fresh lemons and lemon products; the production of reconstituted lemon and lime juice;
the
manufacture of food flavors and colors; and the production of a broad product line of freeze-dried
and
convenience foods.
In April 1977, the Food and Drug Administration (the "FDA") moved to ban the use of saccharin in
consumer products. Acts of Congress have postponed the ban until August 14, 1983, pending further
analysis of studies said to link the sweetener with bladder cancer. Should a ban ultimately be
instituted,
the diet segment of the soft drink industry could be adversely affected.
Industrial Products
Philip Morris Industrial manufactures and sells dense specialty papers, printing and technical
papers,,
disposable paper tissue products and specialized labels.
Community Development
Mission Viejo Company is engaged in community development and home building in Southern
California and Colorado. It is developing Mission Viejo, a completely pre-planned town on
approximately
10,000 acres in Orange County, California, between Los Angeles and San Diego;, Aliso Viejo, on
approximately 6,600 acres close to Mission Viejo; a smaller residential area near Denver, Colorado,
and
the 22,000 acre Highlands Ranch in the Denver area.
Employees
At December 31, 1981, Philip Morris employed approximately 72,000 people.
Energy
Philip Morris's energy requirements are satisfied by utilizing several forms of energy, including
coal,
electricity,, fuel oil and natural gas: Philip Morris has taken a number of steps to conserve energy
and to
date has not experienced any material problems in satisfying its requirements.
Environmental Controls
Philip Morris is subject to various Federal, state and local laws and regulations concerning the
discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise related to environmental' protection.
Compliance
therewith has been accomplished without any material adverse effect on Philip Morris's earnings,
capital
expenditures or competitive position.
(d) Foreign and Domestic Operations and Export Sales
The amounts of operating revenues, operating profit and identifiable assets attributable to each of
Philip Morris's geographic areas and the amount of export sales from the United States for each, of
the ltast
three fiscal years are set forth in the notes to the consolidated financial statements on page 52 of
the
Company's annual report to shareholders for the year ended December 31, 1981 and are incorporated
