devices. directly mean, above X million close and this to that show mean sequentially I QX. look, I portfolio above X our of So million to a availability which full the of devices quarter, acquisition, acquisition correlated growth the

also play more game, price devices, we expensive different mid-price devices. now the lower-price we segments know, you As have devices,

the today from and sort we’re you So higher, meeting consumer that same of because repeat devices, see should other of as by measured the the long expectations. and think that offering actually as we is have parameters the NPS I consumer the rate, availability perspective number, actually what we liking if not could conversion

the total outside and a and from we see in quarter on the also actually visibility to which we the devices, in the what Russia right, be So a in we the next questions year the can we achieve to once positions or so the that somehow terms Ukraine dynamics, revise would volume. deliver now in of will bridging all there’s before then IQOS

Hi, good morning.

Jacek Olczak

morning, Vivien. Hi, good

Vivien Azer

comments a you the I in on made. there that So was quarter, accretive just I’m one in something two or Thanks. growth something reconciling thought but negative last device because time guys that I ILUMA so to ILUMA, having of mix the up Number change? wanted Japan, follow did hard mix that misunderstanding was you had am device from launch I quarter, Japan,

Jacek Olczak

device talking the ILUMA, mid mix three versions to that that and of you now to think price now, introduced the I consumers. lower we’re have IQOS just of three the the premium, lower as a was selling we’re price, – market

is is And ONE, So device, all on attractive before. one attractive on QX, the price we in the higher which the of mean, recognized at that used than the the to this them market, lower lowest and I goes this in but that than second the version ILUMA already obviously because is device in shipments, the price shipment. we competitions, the have IQOS the price X had

into. here maybe So to Vivien look to we need

Emmanuel Babeau

the with I mix if term Emmanuel positive the within price. because growth gross of any But come may, in of device, It’s to it’s it speaking. higher consumables. versus course Vivien the Yeah, reduced much margin, in mix at a negative device a margin in a is the gross because coming

very to we the a have more dilutive impact has but the on positive, sell, device some margin the be you impact revenue, rate So clear. on gross which it is

Vivien Azer

Understood.

sales the I had think pricing tier. graph was we

So both that. thank you for

results sequential incremental and basis. anything the to second to very I out share call on had get was meaningful you an color Is some from on my because both hoping there a For standpoint, were growth, strong? year-over-year question, there Germany, activation a

Jacek Olczak

so post I the second Germany, the change to increase, is, price comes one post restricted thing. And we No, from devices. mean this start again access benefiting had Germany the not again, in price the environment

take that still and to same of blade the for before one which of we device sort lot broad larger is will is is the version, to Switzerland that market, IQOS in follows obviously a similar free the a would Vivien geography. is performing ILUMA story again IQOS how again IQOS the opening went why one the Germany a continuous this running of with version of and We the make reasons example which the is volume devices. the would ILUMA performance. additional And the into we portfolio So range this I availability here have hence go on comment a can

we so use with further of of the far in I used the Switzerland, Germany. acceleration this proxy very am success because – the a pleased especially as – the of this as for in the growth part, German So German on ILUMA acceleration IQOS speaking could I

Now, nothing consumer is think we I in life. as in reactions can this the is certain But through read far Switzerland. as

Vivien Azer

much. very you Thank Understood.
