How to read these bars and different assessments

Council is a separate blend of available disciplines; MoonshotScore above remains the five-pillar research rating.

Bars show each model's ordered assessment on its own scale, not a probability or a comparable investment return. The adjacent words give the assessment; more filled segments indicate a stronger model reading.

On Apr 29, 2026, the Munger lens read the price at that time as undervalued against its own estimate of value.

Readings on this page are from Oct 5, 2026, except a card that shows its own read date.

The last price recorded on this page for Imperial Brands PLC (IMBBY) is $32.53, as of the Oct 2, 2026 trading session (source: Financial Modeling Prep (FMP) · quote). It is a provider snapshot, not a live exchange feed, so check a brokerage quote before you trade.

Yes. Imperial Brands PLC (IMBBY) shows a trailing 12-month dividend yield of 6.67%, as of Oct 2, 2026, in the data on this page. Payout ratio and cash-flow coverage decide whether it can last, and past dividends do not guarantee future payments.

Sources — records for every figure on this page (51 figures)

The 51 rows below are exactly the facts the evidence-backed sections of this page printed — the 10-second verdict, the MoonshotScore, price and market value, the five questions with their receipts, and the records behind this page. Known dates and sources are recorded on their own rows; an em dash or UNRECORDED tier preserves a stored observation without inventing either. The quarterly income statement is provider-standardized (FMP) under one row, and scale definitions — a 0-100 rating, the band ladder, the Piotroski 0–9 range — are fixed rather than measured. No number in those sections was generated by a model. The register does not cover quoted third-party headlines, the dated council readings, or the Frequently Asked Questions; each of those says where it came from where it stands.

"As of" is the date the value is true for where the source carries one — a quarter end, a filing date, a price close, the day the score was computed. A cached observation with no source date remains undated; the page publication date is not used as a substitute.

Business description
Imperial Brands PLC, along with its various subsidiaries, operates globally, primarily focusing on the manufacturing, sourcing, marketing, and sale of tobacco and related products across continents including Europe, the Americas, Africa, Asia, and Australasia. Its extensive product portfolio encompasses traditional tobacco items such as cigarettes, fine cut and smokeless tobacco, rolling papers, and cigars. Additionally, the company maintains a significant presence in the "Next Generation Products" (NGPs) market, offering innovations like e-vapour devices, oral nicotine products, and heated tobacco. These diverse products are sold under numerous well-recognized brands, a selection of which includes Davidoff, Gauloises, JPS, Winston, blu, Golden Virginia, and Dutch Masters.
