British American Tobacco (BTI) Reports 2025 Revenue, Profit Growth Driven by Smokeless Categories
British American Tobacco (NYSE:BTI) is one of the best value stocks to buy now. On February 12, British American Tobacco reported its full-year 2025 earnings report, which was marked by a 2.1% increase in group revenue and 3.4% rise in adjusted profit, driven by a resilient performance in traditional combustibles and an acceleration in New Categories. The company added 4.7 million smokeless consumers, bringing its total to 34.1 million, and remains on track to deliver more than £50 billion in free cash flow by 2030.
In the New Categories segment, modern oral products, led by the Velo brand, grew by 48% globally, with the Velo Plus launch in the US achieving a #2 market position within its first year. Conversely, vapor revenue declined by ~9% due to the prevalence of illicit products in the US and Canada, though H2 of the year showed recovery as enforcement efforts increased. Heated products faced stiff competition in Asia, but the company is hopeful that the premium glo Hilo and next-gen glo HYPER devices will regain market share.
Looking ahead to 2026, British American Tobacco (NYSE:BTI) expects to return to its mid-term growth algorithm of 3-5% revenue growth and 4-6% profit growth. To fund its transformation into a predominantly smokeless business by 2035, the company is intensifying its productivity programs, targeting an additional £2 billion in savings by 2030.
British American Tobacco (NYSE:BTI) provides tobacco and nicotine products to consumers in the US, Europe, Latin America, Canada, the Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, Central Asia, Caucasus, and Africa.

The Shopify Stock Rally Isn't Done: Chart of the Week -- Barrons.com
By Doug Busch Shopify is no longer a pandemic-era growth story that simply failed to slow down. It is compounding at a pace few software platforms its size still manage. In the second quarter of 2026, sales on its platform rose 32%. That was the fifth straight quarter of growth exceeding 30%. Merchants are also using more of Shopify's own tools, from payments to Shop Pay, and new channels like AI shopping agents are starting to increase demand. The simple bull case is that the stock already commands a huge share of independent online commerce, and that position should become more valuable as more buying moves through its checkout. A rule of market mechanics is that the vast majority of an individual security's gain is driven by its underlying sector. Within technology, software has staged a robust recovery, joining semiconductors to power the broader sector higher. The iShares Expanded Tech-Software Sector ETF has maintained an upward trajectory since its mid-April lows, though the advance from $74 to $112 has been choppy as bulls repeatedly stepped in to defend when necessary. Breadth across large-cap software has expanded significantly, with 24 constituents surging over 20% over the past three months. During that same three-month window, Shopify generated outstanding relative strength, advancing 36%, more than doubling the IGV's 17% gain over the same period. Expect the stock's outperformance to persist as software momentum broadens. Let's examine the daily and monthly charts to outline the technical drivers behind this thesis. Looking at the daily chart, the ratio chart against the IGV shows persistent outperformance extending back to mid-May. The stock is riding an eight-session winning streak, during which price action cleared a double-bottom-with-handle pivot at $151.39. Within this broader base, the stock recorded a bullish golden cross in late August and successfully filled its Sept. 10 price gap, tracing back to its Aug. 4 session, the day before a powerful earnings reaction sent the stock surging 17% hi
