2005 FIRST-QUARTER RESULTS
--------------------------
Diluted Earnings Per Share from Continuing Operations
-----------------------------------------------------
Up 17.0% to $1.24 vs. $1.06 in Year-Ago Quarter,
------------------------------------------------
Including the Items Detailed on Schedule 4
------------------------------------------
Earnings from Continuing Operations Up 18.3% to $2.6 billion
------------------------------------------------------------
NEW YORK, April 20, 2005 - Altria Group, Inc. (NYSE: MO) today announced
first-quarter 2005 diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of
$1.24, including the charges and gains detailed on Schedule 4, versus $1.06 in
the same quarter a year ago.
"Solid overall results for the first quarter were in line with our
expectations," said Louis C. Camilleri, chairman and chief executive officer of
Altria Group, Inc. "Philip Morris USA delivered another quarterly increase in
retail share, driven by Marlboro, and strong income growth. In another difficult
quarter for the entire cigarette industry in Western Europe, Philip Morris
International posted widespread share gains and a 13.1% increase in income,
which was enhanced by favorable currency and a one-time inventory sale to its
new distributor in Italy."
"In our food business, Kraft is making sound progress on its Sustainable
Growth Plan. While commodity costs continue to affect earnings, we are pleased
with Kraft's revenue momentum and strong share growth in numerous key categories
and markets," Mr. Camilleri said.
Altria Group, Inc. reaffirmed its projection for 2005 full-year diluted
earnings per share from continuing operations of $4.95 to $5.05, compared with
$4.57 in 2004. This projection assumes current foreign exchange rates and
approximately $0.12 per share in charges associated with the continuing Kraft
restructuring. However, it does not include any tax impact that could arise
consequent to the repatriation of funds from our international businesses under
provisions of the American Jobs Creation Act, nor does it include any benefit
from the prior year accrual for contributions to the National Tobacco Grower
Settlement Trust. In addition, forecasted results do not include the impact of
the previously announced transaction for PT HM Sampoerna Tbk (Sampoerna) or any
future acquisitions or divestitures. The factors described in the
Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements section of this release represent
continuing risks to this projection.
On March 12, 2005, a subsidiary of Philip Morris International Inc. (PMI)
entered into agreements to acquire 40% of the outstanding shares of Sampoerna,
an Indonesian tobacco company, from a number of Sampoerna's principal
shareholders, and commenced a public tender offer for all of the remaining
shares on April 18, 2005. The tender period closes on May 18, 2005. Assuming all
shares are acquired, the transaction will have a total cost of approximately
$5.2 billion, including Sampoerna's net debt of approximately $160 million, and
is projected to be modestly accretive to 2005 diluted earnings per share.
A conference call with members of the investment community will be Webcast
at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time on April 20, 2005. Access is available at

ALTRIA GROUP, INC.
------------------
Prior-period results for Altria Group, Inc. have been restated to reflect the
impact of discontinued operations, following Kraft's agreement on November 15,
2004, to sell its sugar confectionery business. As such, net revenues and
operating companies income for the sugar confectionery business are excluded
from the company's results, while the net earnings impact is included as a
single line item. All references in this news release are to continuing
operations, unless otherwise noted.
As described in "Note 15. Segment Reporting" of Altria Group, Inc.'s 2004 Annual
Report, management reviews operating companies income, which is defined as
operating income before corporate expenses and amortization of intangibles, to
evaluate segment performance and allocate resources. Management believes it is
appropriate to disclose this measure to help investors analyze business
performance and trends. For a reconciliation of operating companies income to
operating income, see the Condensed Statements of Earnings contained in this
release.
2005 First-Quarter Results
- --------------------------
Net revenues for the first quarter of 2005 increased 8.7% versus 2004 to
$23.6 billion, including favorable currency of $741 million.
Operating income increased 12.5% to $4.2 billion, due primarily to
increases at Philip Morris USA (PM USA) and Philip Morris International (PMI).
Also affecting operating income comparisons were favorable currency of $148
million and the other items described in the attached reconciliation.
Earnings from continuing operations increased 18.3% to $2.6 billion, due
primarily to increases at PM USA and PMI, lower restructuring and impairment
costs at Kraft, higher equity income from SABMiller (which is included in
minority interest in earnings from continuing operations, and equity earnings,
net), gains on sales of businesses and a lower effective tax rate of 33.1% in
the first quarter of 2005 compared to 34.6% in 2004. The decrease in the
effective tax rate was driven by the reversal of tax accruals no longer required
at Kraft, as well as other full-year benefits including the impact of the
domestic manufacturers' deduction under the American Jobs Creation Act.
During the first quarter of 2005, Altria Group, Inc. declared a regular
quarterly dividend of $0.73 per common share, which represents an annualized
rate of $2.92 per common share.
DOMESTIC TOBACCO
----------------
2005 First-Quarter Results
- --------------------------
Philip Morris USA Inc. (PM USA), Altria Group, Inc.'s domestic tobacco
business, achieved solid retail share and income growth, driven by Marlboro's
strong performance. Shipment volume of 42.8 billion units was down 0.7% from the
previous year, but was essentially flat when adjusted for an extra shipping day
in the first quarter of 2004 and the timing of promotional shipments. Operating
companies income increased 7.0%, to $1.0 billion, primarily driven by lower
wholesale promotional allowances, partially offset by expenses related to the
quota buyout legislation and lower volume. PM USA reduced the wholesale
promotional allowance on its Focus on Four brands by $1.00 per carton, from
$6.50 to $5.50, effective December 12, 2004. In addition, effective January 16,
2005, PM USA increased the price of its other brands by $5.00 per thousand
cigarettes or $1.00 per carton.
As shown in the following table, PM USA's total retail share improved in
the first quarter of 2005, driven by Marlboro. In a highly competitive
environment, retail share remained stable for Parliament and Basic, while retail
share for Virginia Slims declined 0.1 percentage point.

*IRI/Capstone Total Retail Panel was developed to measure market share in retail
stores selling cigarettes. It is not designed to capture Internet or direct mail
sales.
PM USA grew retail share in both the premium and discount segments, with
its share of the premium segment increasing 0.3 share points to 62.1% and its
discount segment share increasing 0.2 share points to 16.3% in the first
quarter. For the total industry, the premium category increased 0.4 points to
73.5% in the first quarter of 2005 versus the year-ago period, while the
discount category declined to 26.5%. The deep discount category of the industry,
which includes both major manufacturers' private label brands and all other
manufacturers' discount brands, was down 0.1 point during the first quarter to
11.8%.
In January 2005, PM USA began shipping Marlboro Red and Lights 72mm in
commemorative 50th anniversary packs. Also, at the end of the first quarter, it
began shipping Marlboro UltraSmooth in several test markets to evaluate consumer
acceptance of its taste.
On April 5, PM USA announced the construction of a $300 million research
and technology center in Richmond, Virginia. When completed in 2007, the
facility will nearly double PM USA's research space and will house more than 500
scientists, engineers and support staff.

---------------------
2005 First-Quarter Results
- --------------------------
Cigarette shipment volume for Philip Morris International Inc. (PMI),
Altria Group, Inc.'s international tobacco business, increased 2.1% to 200.9
billion units, reflecting higher volume in Italy as a result of a one-time
inventory sale to PMI's new distributor, continued strong recovery in France and
gains in many other markets in Central Europe, Eastern Europe and Asia,
partially offset by lower shipments in Germany. Excluding the inventory sale in
Italy, PMI's volume at 196.9 billion units was essentially flat versus the same
period a year ago.
PMI achieved widespread market share gains, with increases in 18 of its top
25 income markets including Austria, Belgium, France, Greece, Hong Kong, Italy,
Japan, Korea, Mexico, the Netherlands, Poland, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Spain,
Thailand, Turkey, Ukraine and the United Kingdom.
Operating companies income rose 13.1% to $2.1 billion, due to higher
pricing, favorable currency of $126 million and a $96 million benefit from the
inventory sale in Italy, partially offset by unfavorable mix and expenses of $39
million related to the EC agreement.
Total Marlboro cigarette shipments increased 5.1% in the first quarter, due
to the timing of shipments to Japan in preparation for the expiration of Japan
Tobacco Inc.'s license for Marlboro and the return of full control of the brand
to PMI in May, the inventory sale in Italy and gains in the Philippines and
France, partially offset by lower volumes in Germany and worldwide duty-free.
Excluding the timing of shipments to Japan and the inventory sale in Italy,
Marlboro cigarette volume was down 1.1%. However, Marlboro had one of its best
quarters in terms of relative performance as share increased in many top income
markets, including Argentina, Australia, France, Japan, Korea, Mexico, the
Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Russia, Spain, Switzerland, Thailand, Turkey,
Ukraine and the United Kingdom.
In Western Europe, cigarette volume increased 0.6%, due mainly to France
and the inventory sale in Italy, mostly offset by a decline in Germany.
Excluding the inventory sale in Italy, PMI's volume was down 7.2% in Western
Europe, due primarily to Germany and the timing of shipments in Spain. However,
PMI's overall market share grew 0.2 share points to 38.9%, reflecting gains in
all major markets except Germany.
In France, PMI's business achieved very strong volume and share results.
Volume grew 6.0% and PMI's share was up 2.3 points to 41.5%, driven by Marlboro
and the Philip Morris brand.
In Germany, the combined industry consumption of cigarettes and other
tobacco products declined 7.9% in the first quarter, while cigarette volume
declined 20.1%. The consumption decline was due to one less selling day in the
first quarter of 2005, and tax-driven price increases in March and December 2004
with subsequent down trading to low-priced tobacco portions, which grew from 2.0
billion units in the first quarter of 2004 to 5.1 billion units in 2005. In
addition, the timing of trade inventory purchases in advance of the respective
price increases resulted in the favorable timing of shipments in the first
quarter of 2004 versus unfavorable timing of shipments in the first quarter of
2005. PMI's cigarette volume in Germany declined 22.3% and market share was down
0.9 points to 36.4%, reflecting the impact of higher prices and the growth of
the tobacco portions segment, where Marlboro has a 6.6% share. Including other
tobacco products, PMI's volume was down 16.3%, reflecting a nearly three-fold
increase in other tobacco products volume. Although limited by capacity
constraints, in total PMI captured a 13.0% share of the tobacco portions segment
on the combined strength of Marlboro and Next tobacco portions, which were
launched in the second quarter of 2004.
In Italy, industry shipments of cigarettes declined 9.6%, due to price
sensitivity following December 2004 tax-driven price increases and recently
enacted smoking restrictions. PMI's cigarette volume was up 28.3% in the first
quarter, reflecting the one-time inventory sale of four billion units to its new
distributor, Logista, and the favorable timing of shipments. PMI's market share
was up 0.4 points to 52.2%, due to the performance of Diana and Chesterfield.
In Central Europe, PMI's volume rose 5.2% in the first quarter of 2005, due
mainly to Greece, Poland and Romania, partially offset by declines in the Czech
Republic, Switzerland and inventory adjustments due to the transition of PMI's
distribution system from wholesale to direct retail sales in Serbia. In Poland,
volume was up significantly and market share advanced 5.0 points to 40.2%,
driven by the strong performance of PMI's brand portfolio, including Marlboro,
Bond Street and Red & White. In Romania, the volume increase reflects new brand
launches and trade purchases in advance of an April price increase. In worldwide
duty-free, volume declined 8.7%, mainly reflecting the timing of shipments to
Asia and lower volume in Europe as a result of the accession of new members to
the European Union in May 2004.
In Eastern Europe, the Middle East and Africa, volume grew 7.8%, driven by
gains in Egypt, Kazakhstan, Turkey and Ukraine. In Russia, volume was down
slightly due to trade inventory reductions in the first quarter. However, market
share in Russia rose 1.2 share points to 27.2%. In Ukraine, volume grew 32.8%
partly aided by timing, but also due to increased consumer demand for PMI's
international brands Marlboro, L&M, Bond Street and Chesterfield, resulting in
its market share rising 1.2 points to a record 32.0%.
In Asia, volume was down 1.1% as declines in Korea and Japan were partially
offset by growth in the Philippines and Thailand. In the Philippines, volume was
up 13.3% and share increased significantly due to stronger consumer demand for
Marlboro. In Korea, the overall market was down significantly, due mainly to the
December 2004 tax-driven price increase, and PMI's volume declined 20.8%.
However, PMI's market share increased 2.8 points to a record 10.6%. In Japan,
PMI's volume was down 6.5% due to the timing of shipments, primarily related to
the impending change in health warnings, which become effective July 1, 2005,
partially offset by a significant ramp-up of Marlboro inventories in preparation
for the Marlboro license take back in May. PMI's market share increased 0.5
points to 24.8% in Japan, as a result of the continued success of Marlboro, Lark
and Virginia Slims Rose.
In Latin America, PMI volume was down 3.7%, due primarily to lower volume
in Argentina and Brazil, partially offset by continued growth in Mexico. In
Argentina, PMI's volume was down 9.3%, reflecting a lower total market due to
the impact of several tax-driven price increases in 2004. However, Marlboro
share in Argentina was up 0.5 points to 28.7%. In Brazil, volume declined 8.9%,
due to intense competition from low-priced brands. In Mexico, volume rose 4.4%
and PMI's market share rose 2.5 points to a record 61.6%, aided by last year's
introduction of Marlboro Mild Flavor.

2005 First-Quarter Results
- --------------------------
Yesterday, Kraft Foods Inc. (Kraft) reported 2005 first-quarter results.
Kraft's net revenues were up 6.4% to $8.1 billion, reflecting positive mix,
strong new product and developing market results, the impact of higher marketing
spending, commodity-driven price increases, the shift in Easter timing from
mid-April last year to late March this year and favorable currency of $164
million. Ongoing volume was up 2.5% in total, but was down 0.3% excluding
acquisitions. This volume decline reflects Kraft's continuing efforts to improve
its mix by focusing on higher profit items, the elimination of slower moving
products and the impact of higher prices on category growth rates. Operating
income increased 18.9% to $1.2 billion, due to lower asset impairment and exit
costs, gains on sales of businesses, positive mix, cost reduction efforts and
favorable currency of $22 million, partially offset by higher commodity costs
(net of pricing), increased benefit costs and increased consumer marketing
spending.
Kraft completed the sales of its U.S. yogurt and United Kingdom desserts
businesses during the first quarter of 2005, and expects to complete the sale of
its sugar confectionery business by the end of the second quarter. In accordance
with relevant accounting rules, the sugar confectionery business has been
reflected as a discontinued operation. In addition, Kraft announced on April 12
an agreement to sell its fruit snacks business and recorded a pre-tax asset
impairment charge of $93 million related to it in the first quarter. Kraft
expects that this sale will be completed during the second quarter.
NORTH AMERICAN FOOD
-------------------
2005 First-Quarter Results
- --------------------------
For the first quarter of 2005, Kraft North America Commercial (KNAC) net
revenues grew 4.9% to $5.6 billion, driven by positive mix, strong new product
results, particularly in pizza and biscuits, higher prices, the impact of
increased marketing spending, the shift in Easter timing and favorable currency
of $34 million. Ongoing volume was up 3.3%, driven by acquisitions. Excluding
acquisitions, volume declined 0.4%, reflecting Kraft's efforts to improve
product mix, the elimination of slower moving products and retail inventory
reductions in ready-to-drink beverages. These impacts were partially offset by
solid consumption growth across much of the portfolio. Operating companies
income increased 9.2% to $910 million, due to lower asset impairment and exit
costs, positive mix and cost reduction efforts, partially offset by higher
commodity costs (net of pricing), increased benefit costs and increased consumer
marketing spending.
INTERNATIONAL FOOD
------------------
2005 First-Quarter Results
- --------------------------
For the first quarter of 2005, net revenues for Kraft International
Commercial (KIC) grew 9.8% to $2.5 billion, driven by strong results in
developing markets including Russia, Ukraine, Brazil, Venezuela and Southeast
Asia, solid results in the United Kingdom and the Nordic region and favorable
currency of $130 million. While revenues were up in most markets, revenues in
Germany declined on lower volume following a price increase on coffee. Ongoing
volume was up 0.4% and was below revenue growth due to the impact of higher
prices on consumption growth and the elimination of slower moving products.
Operating companies income increased 55.9% to $293 million, benefiting from a
$115 million pre-tax gain on the sale of the desserts business in the United
Kingdom, lower asset impairment and exit costs, positive mix, cost reduction
efforts and favorable currency of $17 million, partially offset by higher
commodity costs (net of pricing), increased marketing spending and higher
infrastructure investment in developing markets.

2005 First-Quarter Results
- --------------------------
Philip Morris Capital Corporation (PMCC) reported operating companies
income of $41 million for the first quarter of 2005, significantly below results
for the comparable period in 2004 as a result of lower lease portfolio revenues,
reflecting PMCC's progress as it shifts its strategic focus from an emphasis on
the growth of its portfolio of finance leases through new investments to one of
maximizing investment gains and generating cash flows from its existing
portfolio of finance assets. Accordingly, PMCC expects that its operating
companies income will decrease over time, although there may be fluctuations
year to year, as lease investments mature or are sold.
