British American Tobacco p.l.c. (BTI) Q4 2025 Earnings Call Transcript

Tadeu Marroco
CEO, Member of Management Board & Executive Director

Good morning, everyone. I’m delighted to welcome you to our Full Year 2025 Results Presentation. With me this morning, Javed Iqbal, Interim CFO; and Victoria Buxton, Group Head of Investor Relations.

I will begin with our transformation highlights. Javed will then take you through our financial results in more detail. Finally, I will return to talk more about our performance outlook and why we are confident in the pathway ahead given the clear momentum we are driving. We will then take your questions.

With that, I would like to draw your attention to the disclaimers on Slides 2 and 3. So let’s begin by looking at the positive transformation momentum we are driving. Starting with some key highlights. We added 4.7 million smokeless consumers, bringing our total to 34.1 million, mainly driven by our continued strong performance in Modern Oral. This marks our strongest growth acceleration to date and position us well for 2026.

We delivered 2025 group results at the top end of guidance, driven by resilient delivery in combustibles and an excellent performance from Velo in all three regions.
