Altria Narrows 2025 Full-Year Adjusted Diluted EPS Guidance Jul 30, 2025: Image Source: TradingView.

Altria’s narrowed guidance for full-year 2025 adjusted diluted earnings per share in the range of $5.35-$5.45 (was $5.30-$5.45) is achievable, in our view. The updated guidance represents a growth rate of 3%-5% from a base of $5.19 in 2024. Altria also noted that its guidance “contemplates the current estimated impact of increased tariffs on its costs, based on presently available information about tariffs.” The tobacco giant expects EPS growth to moderate in coming periods as it laps a lower share count associated with its accelerated share repurchase program. We continue to like Altria as a holding in the High Yield Dividend Newsletter portfolio. Shares yield 6.9% at the time of this writing.

UnitedHealth is contending with rising costs and an investigation from the DOJ related to its Medicare business. We expect to lower our fair value estimate of UnitedHealth Group upon its next update, but we continue to include shares in the newsletter portfolios.
