The company boasts a strong portfolio of well-known tobacco brands like Winston and Camel, which provide a stable foundation in the traditional cigarette market. JT's core tobacco business demonstrates remarkable resilience, with revenue increasing by 3.5% year-on-year to 785 billion in the first half of 2025, defying declining volume trends through strategic pricing and market share consolidation. The acquisition of Vector Group in late 2024 significantly boosted JT's presence in the US market, contributing to an 8% rise in operating profit for fiscal year 2024.

JT's commitment to sustainability is evident in its net-zero emissions target by 2050 and its six consecutive years on CDP's 'Climate Change A List', underscoring strong environmental performance.
