Imperial Brands has confirmed this morning's @TimesBusiness scoop that the company "has recently initiated a process to search for a non-executive chairman to succeed Mark Williamson".

The workaround is to capitalize the "H".

"Imperial Tobacco to increase RRPs across all cigarettes"


Imperial Tobacco is increasing the RRP across its cigarettes, rolling tobacco (RYO), pipes and cigars from 4 February, RN has been told.

The wholesale prices charged to retailers are also likely to increase, as the manufacturer also plans to raise the prices paid by wholesalers for orders placed after 4 February. Prices for papers, tips, rolling machines, tubes, lighters and snuff will remain unchanged.

In 20s cigarettes, all Imperial’s brands including Lambert and Butler, JPS and Embassy will increase by 35p. Across its RYO brands including Golden Virginia and Drum, 30g packets will increase by 50p and 50g packets by 80p.

Market report:

"..Imperial Brands was on the blue-chip losers list, with British American Tobacco also falling.

"The whisper – presumably interspersed with a smoker’s cough – is that US regulators are getting more agitated about ecigarettes."

For 2019

FTSE 250 +5.9%

IMB -1.3%

BATS -5.1%

EJ a solid bear case but on the flip side tobacco stocks have proven to be extremely resilient and have been facing volume declines and regulation fears for over a decade. Pricing is still extremely low in emerging markets and cannabis is still an X factor that can recitalize the industry.

Will probably be out of favor for a year or two then rebound heavily when the numbers will speak instead of emotions.

[philanderer] 28/1/2019 12:14

Can't argue with that EJ.

I hold IMB and BATS , but they're part of a fairly well diversified portfolio so it's not costing me too much. I'll continue holding for the time being.

Good luck with yours as well :-)

Only thing around seems to be German sales data ......

11:42 am

Which was bad. Down 1.1% for December,

11:43 am
BE
That's sales. By volume it's even worse. Down 3.8%.

11:43 am

Germany's been a surprisingly resilient market for smoking. Did 0.4% by sales for November, for instance.

11:44 am
BE
By memory, BAT and Imperial have about 25% shares in Germany. PMI has 40-ish.

11:45 am
BE
It was always one of those problem markets for merger combos due to share concentration.
