Cheap cigarettes will continue taking US market share, tobacco firm JTI predicts

Japan Tobacco International expects a shift towards cheaper cigarette brands in the United States to reach more than 40% of the market by 2027, its finance chief told Reuters. U.S. smokers have been swapping out brands such as Altria's Marlboro and British American Tobacco's (BAT) Newport, which have been raising prices for years, for less expensive brands as high inflation and interest rates stretch their wallets. BAT's U.S. cigarette volumes fell 10.1% last year in part due to this shift, it reported on Thursday, while Altria has also been losing market share.

Big Tobacco nears $24 billion settlement to end Canada lawsuits

If approved, the plan would be the largest settlement of its kind outside the United States, said Jacob Shelley, co-director of the Health Ethics, Law and Policy lab at Canada's Western University. The Canadian units of the three tobacco giants were dealt a massive blow in 2015 after a Quebec court awarded damages to some 100,000 smokers and ex-smokers who alleged the companies knew since the 1950s their product was causing cancer, other illnesses and failed to warn consumers adequately. After an appeal, a Quebec court in 2019 upheld the 2015 decision that awarded smokers in the Canadian province around C$15 billion, forcing the Canadian subsidiaries of all the three cigarette makers to seek bankruptcy protection.
