Net cash provided by operating activities increased to $3,043 million in the first six months of 2026 from $2,925 million in the first six months of 2025. The $118 million increase was driven primarily by lower State Settlement Agreement payments and higher net revenues in the smokeable products segment. Higher income-tax payments partially offset the operating cash flow improvement. Net cash used in financing activities rose to $4,988 million from $4,693 million, reflecting higher common-stock dividends despite lower debt repayments and share repurchases.
