The proliferation of illicit, flavored disposable e-vapor products is a major market disruption, contributing 2-3% to the cigarette industry's volume decline. This illicit trade undermines Altria's legitimate sales channels for both its traditional and smoke-free products, creating a significant competitive and regulatory challenge.
Filing excerpt
