Altria now expects the acquisition to close in the second quarter of 2023, subject to closing conditions. The $2.75 billion acquisition of NJOY, which makes vaping products, is a major step towards boosting the company’s smoke-free portfolio.
Overall, the Street has a $48.90 consensus price target on Altria alongside a Moderate Buy consensus rating.
