` Dear Stockholder: Your company is continuing its solid growth in a rapidly and radically changing world. Political and economic developments are creating new opportunities for us. The borderless Euro- pean Community planned for 1992, together with Eastern European countries now experimenting with free market systems, will constitute a larger market than North America. We are well positioned to prosper from these changes. We have had a major international tobacco presence for more than 20 years. We have been the largest cigarette company in Europe since 1983, and in 1990 we widened our lead. We took an important step to strengthen our competit iveness in European food markets by acquir- ing Jacobs Suchard AG, a Swiss-based coffee and confectionery company. This $4.1 billion purchase makes us the third-largest food company in Europe, and brings us brands and distribution channels in countries where we needed to broaden our business. The consolidation of European markets is not the only key to our growth. Although the cigarette market in the United States is declining slightly, we continue to gain volume and share. Our business in Asian cigarette markets, particularly Japan, is building rapidly. And in September 1990, we reached a major agreement to export cigarettes to the Russian Republic, the largest republic in the world's third-largest cigarette market-the Soviet Union. Both developments add impetus to the continued expansion of our international tobacco operations. We are devoting ever increasing resources to the building of our food businesses. By pooling the research and talents of people in different parts of Kraft General Foods and applying them to a shared challenge, we accelerated the introduction of fat free foods in seven categories this past year. We have announced introductions in still more categories in 1991. In 1990, we increased our dividend by 25.1%, to an annualized rate of $1.72 per share, marking the 23rd consecutive year of dividend increases. Through our stock repurchase program, we spent $221 million in 1990 to repurchase Philip Morris common stock, at an average price of $38.88 per share. 1990 Results Consolidated operating revenues of $51.2 billion were 16.1% higher than in 1989. Our 1990 perfor- mance includes operating results from Jacobs Suchard since its acquisition. Our operating companies income grew 22.1% to $8.7 billion. Net earnings were $3.5 billion, up 'hilip Morris management visiting Masuo Fukujin, a Tokyo retailer. .eft to right: Hamish Maxwell, Michiko Egawa (Philip Morris apan), Michael Miles, William Murray, Nicolaas Kuijpers (Kraft aeneral Foods International), Mr. Fukujin, and John Keenan. 20.'2'!4>, and net earnings per share reached $3.83, 20.4% higher than in 1989. Our tobacco operations enjoyed continued sales and profit growth. We sold one billion more cigarettes in the United States in 1990 than in 1989, while U.S. industry volume, based on shipments, declined 1.8 billion units. Outside the United States, we sold 368.1 billion units, 15.5% more than in 1989, bringing our tobacco factory utilization rates around the world close to full capacity. At Kraft General Foods, volume grew by 6.5% for the year. Excluding Jacobs Suchard, volume grew by 3.3%, while revenues and operating companies income continued to grow strongly, and operating margins also improved. Including t full year of 1990 Jacobs Suchard results on a pro forma basis, our food companies would have con- ributed approximately 52% of our revenues and 31% of our operating companies income, while mploying 66% of our work force. Miller Brewing Company volume was up by 1.6 million barrels, or 3.8%, and operating companies ,icome advanced by 26%. Five years of steady growth, fueled by successful new product introduc- ions, have helped Miller build its position as a major competitor in the consolidating beer industry. lanagement and Board of Directors 1 April, Richard D. Parsons, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the Dime Savings Bank of few York, FSB, joined the Philip Morris Board of Directors. Also in April, two members of your Board, Howard L. Clark and William P. Tavoulareas, retired in ccordance with our policies. Each had served with distinction on the Board of the General Foods orporation prior to its acquisition by Philip Morris in 1985.

have contributed great value to Philip Morris during their years of service on your Board. Social and Legislative Issues We market more than 3,000 products to millions of consumers around the world. Our activities involve us in a host of public policy issues in every country in which we do business. Among all these social issues, the relationship between smoking and health is the most controver- sialpJe have acknowledged that smoking is a risk factor in the development of lung cancer and certain other human diseases, because a statistical relationship exists between smoking and the occurrence of those diseases. Accordingly, we insist that the decision to smoke, like many other life- style decisions, should be made by informed adults. We believe that smokers around the world are well aware of the potential risks associated with tobacco use, and have the knowledge necessary to make an informed decision.l The U.S. cigarette industry is both mature and highly competitive. Outside the U.S., most ciga- rettes are made and sold by government-owned enterprises; we are competing-for instance- against the elected governments of Japan, Italy, and France. Our competitors throughout the world are just as eager to attract our customers as we are to attract theirs. It is against this competitive background that we engage in marketing programs designed to persuade existing smokers to use our brands. We believe that such programs affect brand choices, but not the decision to smoke. Many experts and studies-including those cited by the U.S. Surgeon General and the U.S. Environ- mental Protection Agency-remain divided over the relationship between environmental tobacco smoke and human health. We favor policies which accommodate and, if necessary, segregate non- smokers and smokers in the workplace and in confined public spaces. We do not believe that the prohibition or unreasonable regulation of cigarette use in such places is justified, and we will, there- fore, continue to oppose such proposals. Cigarette product liability is the most publicized legal issue we face. By the end of 1990, the num- ber of product liability cases pending against the U.S. cigarette industry dropped to 51, continuing a decline from a peak of 151 in 1986. We view this trend as a positive development for both your com- pany and the U.S. tobacco industry. The Outlook Our goal is to be the world's most successful consumer packaged products company. We will con- tinue to judge that success not only against our own past performance but against that of our competitors. Moreover, we will measure success not merely in terms of income and volume growth and in overall returns to our stockholders; we also aim to be the best in anticipating and providing for the needs of our consumers and customers and in accepting and fulfilling our responsibilities to the communities in which we live and work and to the environment in general. No company can take these for granted. The war in the Persian Gulf, together with slowing eco- nomic growth in many countries, added to the risks and uncertainties of doing business. Fortunately, our products are consumer staples, and our businesses are relatively resilient. To improve our effectiveness in each of our core businesses, we will continue to expand and fill in gaps while taking advantage of manufacturing, marketing, and distribution synergies. Acting on this strategy in 1990, we purchased a cigarette manufacturer from the former East German state; announced a marketing and manufacturing joint venture with the largest Hungarian coffee and con- fectionery producer, BEV; and acquired majority ownership of Negroni S.p.A., a specialty meat company in Italy. To assure consistency, quality, and availability of our brands, we are investing in our production processes. In 1990, our capital expenditures set a new record of $1.4 billion. We anticipate that from 1991 to 1995 they will amount to another $9.0 billion. We are also addressing increasingly urgent environmental concerns, even as we continue to find new ways of satisfying consumer desires for convenience, nutrition, and variety. Our greatest competitive assets are not manufacturing facilities or brand franchises, however, but the talents, energies, and dedication of all our employees. We are only as strong as our employees are ambitious for our businesses. We thank them for all their past contributions and we count on their continued efforts to help us realize our potential to be the best consumer packaged products company in the world.
