Recent coverage centers on analyst positioning and the smokeless-product transition. Jefferies reaffirmed a Buy rating with a target of GBX 5500, citing potential for accelerating growth as investment in smokeless products pays off, and Deutsche Bank reiterated its own Buy the same day. A separate piece pegged fair value at £51.50, framing the stock as 19% undervalued on cash generation, deleveraging, and buyback and dividend commitments. Other coverage compared BTI with Altria and included Philip Morris in a broader industry outlook on declining cigarette volumes and smoke-free investment. RBC reiterated a Sell rating with a target of GBX 3800, while Morningstar issued a Buy rating in the same roundup.
