    6601 West Broad Street Richmond, Virginia 23230 Dear Fellow Shareholder: It is my pleasure to invite you to join us at the 2016 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of Altria Group, Inc. to be held on Thursday, May 19, 2016 at 9:00 a.m., Eastern Time, at the Greater Richmond Convention Center, 403 North 3rd Street, Richmond, Virginia 23219. At this year’s meeting, we will vote on the election of 11 directors, the ratification of the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and, if properly presented, two shareholder proposals. We will also conduct a non-binding advisory vote to approve the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers. There also will be a report on the Company’s business, and shareholders will have an opportunity to ask questions. To attend the meeting, an admission ticket and government-issued photo identification are required. To request an admission ticket, please follow the instructions on page 9 in response to Question 16. One immediate family member who is 21 years of age or older may accompany a shareholder as a guest. We use the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rule that allows companies to furnish proxy materials to their shareholders over the Internet. We believe this expedites shareholders receiving proxy materials, lowers costs and conserves natural resources. We thus are mailing to many shareholders a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, rather than a paper copy of the Proxy Statement and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015.

Our tobacco businesses were resilient and our employees rose to the challenge together to navigate the COVID-19 pandemic, political and social unrest, and an uncertain economic outlook. Altria’s full-year adjusted diluted earnings per share (EPS) grew 3.6% driven primarily by strong performance of our tobacco businesses, and we increased our dividend for the 55th time in 51 years. Moving Beyond Smoking: Progress Toward Our 10-Year Vision Building on our long history of industry leadership, our Vision is to responsibly lead the transition of adult smokers to a non-combustible future. Altria is Moving Beyond Smoking and leading the way by taking actions to transition millions to potentially less harmful choices — a substantial opportunity for adult tobacco consumers 21+, Altria’s businesses, and society. To achieve our Vision, we are building a deep understanding of evolving adult tobacco consumer preferences, expanding awareness and availability of our non-combustible portfolio, and, when authorized by FDA, educating adult smokers about the benefits of switching to alternative products.

These unintended consequences would likely include: . Significant expansion of the unregulated, illicit cigarette market . Increased organized crime . Increased burdens for law enforcement . An erosion in underage access prevention . Declining tax revenues and tobacco settlement payments to the states .

  • Answer and Defenses of Respondent Altria Group, Inc., With
    PUBLIC response to competition. Altria withdrew its e-vapor products because it concluded that they could not meet FDA’s regulatory requirements, because they lacked consumer appeal, and because they had lost money and had no short- or long-term path to profitability. The minority investment that the FTC challenges, which was designed to make JLI a more successful competitor by, among other things, helping it to successfully navigate complex regulatory hurdles and thereby continue selling its products, does not violate the antitrust laws. Altria submits that, on the full record, and in considering the applicable law, the relief sought by the Complaint should be denied. Altria’s subsidiary, Philip Morris USA, has for more than a century been one of the nation’s leading manufacturers of conventional, combustible cigarettes. In 2012, Altria established a new subsidiary, Nu Mark, to develop reduced-harm tobacco products, recognizing that adult consumers were becoming interested in e-vapor products because they could potentially provide some or all of the satisfaction of combustible cigarettes without the associated tar and without the stigma associated with smoking. Although Altria set up Nu Mark to compete, it did not have scientists or technical experts who were experienced in developing e-vapor products. After failing in its initial efforts to develop a successful product on its own, Altria undertook an acquisition strategy beginning in 2014. All of this was done at a time when the FDA did not regulate e-vapor products. Far from being a “threat to JLI’s market dominance” as the FTC alleges, Altria’s effort was a failure.

  • Altria Reports 2019 Third-Quarter and Nine-Months Results; Announces New 2020 - 2022 Adjusted Diluted Eps Growth Objective to Advance Strategic Business Platform
    ALTRIA REPORTS 2019 THIRD-QUARTER AND NINE-MONTHS RESULTS; ANNOUNCES NEW 2020 - 2022 ADJUSTED DILUTED EPS GROWTH OBJECTIVE TO ADVANCE STRATEGIC BUSINESS PLATFORM RICHMOND, Va. - October 31, 2019 - Altria Group, Inc. (Altria) (NYSE: MO) today announces its 2019 third- quarter and nine-months business results, reaffirms its 2019 full-year adjusted diluted earnings per share guidance and announces a new 2020 - 2022 adjusted diluted earnings per share growth objective. “Our core tobacco businesses delivered excellent third-quarter financial results,” said Howard Willard, Altria’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Our 2019 plans remain on track, and we reaffirm our guidance to deliver full-year 2019 adjusted diluted EPS growth of 5% to 7%.” “We continue to believe the evolution of the tobacco industry represents a significant opportunity for Altria. We marked major milestones in our transformation journey this year, including launching IQOS and completing the on! transaction. We believe that, with current adult smoker trends and e-vapor disruption, it’s an opportune time to expand the availability of these options.” “In light of these considerations, we announce a compounded annual adjusted diluted EPS growth objective of 5% to 8% for the years 2020 through 2022. We believe this new growth objective provides us the flexibility to make investments in noncombustible offerings for the long term, generate sustainable income growth in the core tobacco businesses, and return cash to shareholders through a strong dividend. We also expect to maintain our dividend payout ratio target of approximately 80% of adjusted diluted EPS during this period.” As previously announced, a conference call with the investment community and news media will be webcast on October 31, 2019 at 9:00 a.m.
