Exhibit 4
2 June 2026
Firmly on track to deliver FY guidance, driven by continued U.S. delivery and New Category momentum
| • | Accelerating New Category revenue growth led by Modern Oral and Vapour; now expect mid-teens revenue growth for H1 and FY 2026 | |
| • | Velo continues to deliver excellent revenue and category contribution1 growth globally | |
| • | Strong U.S. revenue and profit2 growth, driven by combustibles, Modern Oral and Vapour, with performance expected to be skewed to H1 as we lap a stronger H2 comparator | |
| • | Resilient delivery in AME, with performance expected to accelerate in H2, driven by targeted commercial actions and the further roll-out of New Category innovations | |
| • | Stabilising performance in APMEA through the year, with sequential improvement in H1 vs. H2 2025 | |
| • | Further improvement in New Category contribution1, driven by Modern Oral and Vapour | |
| • | H2 weighted Group profit3 delivery, driven by stabilising our performance in APMEA and the increasing realisation of Fit2Win savings through the year | |
| • | Confident in sustainably delivering our mid-term algorithm: 3-5% revenue, 4-6% APFO3 and 5-8% adjusted diluted EPS3 growth, with 2026 performance still expected at the lower end of these ranges | |
| • | Strong cash generation, with balanced capital allocation; on track to reduce leverage4 to within 2-2.5x by year-end, alongside a progressive dividend and sustainable share buy-backs, with £1.3bn in 2026 |
Tadeu Marroco, Chief Executive
“I am pleased that our full-year delivery remains firmly on track. We are continuing to drive good momentum, and are confident in our ability to sustainably deliver our mid-term algorithm and strong cash returns for shareholders.
In the U.S., our robust delivery is driven by combustibles, Vapour and an excellent Modern Oral performance. The strength of our multi-category portfolio and enhanced commercial execution in the world’s largest nicotine value pool reinforces our confidence in future delivery. We welcome the FDA’s recent prioritisation guidance as an important step toward effective enforcement and expanding market access for responsible products, and we are actively preparing our future Modern Oral and Vapour portfolio for market.
In New Categories, revenue growth is accelerating and we now expect to deliver mid-teens for 2026. We continue to prioritise investment in our most profitable value pools, driving strong contribution growth.
Velo continues its excellent performance across all three regions. We further extended our global category volume share leadership5 in Modern Oral, the fastest growing New Category with the lowest risk*† profile, relative to cigarettes.
In Vapour, I am encouraged by improving performance in the U.S., the world’s largest vapour market, while continuing to build a premium segment with Vuse Ultra in other key markets.
In Heated Products, we have proactively streamlined our commercial footprint to drive further scale in glo Hilo in priority markets, while also initiating a platform reset with Hyper Pro Plus in the value segment. We expect H2 share performance improvement, despite financial delivery being adversely impacted by material inventory movements in Japan alongside significant competitive intensity in the value segment.
We are closely monitoring developments in the Middle East. While there is no significant impact on the Group at this time, the broader macroeconomic and geopolitical backdrop is dynamic, increasing the risk of volatility in consumer sentiment should uncertainty persist.
We are making good progress towards our year-end target leverage4 range of 2.0–2.5x and remain committed to delivering sustainable shareholder value through robust cash returns.”
Our outlook is underpinned by the following key areas where we have continued to make progress:
1. Combustibles: Resilient financial delivery supported by robust pricing YTD
| • | Group value share in top markets6 -20bps, volume share -30bps | |
| • | Continued momentum in U.S. revenue and profit2 growth; share: -20bps value, -80bps volume, driven by heightened competitive activity mainly in deep discount (-20bps volume excl. deep discount) | |
| • | Resilient AME financial delivery led by Brazil and Türkiye; share: -20bps value, +10bps volume | |
| • | In APMEA, while progress has been slower than anticipated in H1, we expect a sequential improvement vs. H2 2025, and our performance to stabilise through the year; share: -30bps value, -30bps volume | |
2. Accelerating New Category performance, now expecting mid-teens revenue growth in H1 and FY26
2.1 Velo: Continued strong growth and share gains globally; Further extending category leadership
| • | Volume share +5.7pts of Total Oral and +7.4pts of Modern Oral in top markets5 | |
| • | Strong double-digit revenue growth, driven by industry growth and share gains | |
| • | Velo Plus is delivering excellent results in the U.S., driving total volume share of Modern Oral +10.4pts, expect strong financial performance in H1 and FY | |
| • | Continued share leadership in AME, over-indexing on value share, with strong financial performance | |
2.2 Vuse: Extending global value share leadership; Strong U.S. financial performance
| • | Global value share in top markets7 +1.3pts, with continued global leadership in tracked channels | |
| • | Strong U.S. financial performance in H1 and FY, value share +4.2pts | |
| • | AME value share -1.5pts, while maintaining value share leadership in Europe; financial delivery impacted by regulatory changes in the UK and Poland | |
| • | Expect mid-single digit revenue growth in H1 and FY driven by the U.S. |
| 2 |
2.3 glo: Innovation led share performance improvement expected in H2
| • | Volume share in top markets8 -1.6pts, AME -0.7pts, APMEA -2.1pts, reflecting heightened competition in value segment | |
| • | Continued premium share9 progress, with glo Hilo across key markets: 2.6% (Japan), 8.8% (Poland) and 1.5% (Italy) and encouraging results in new launch markets, Romania and Greece | |
| • | Strengthening our value offer with Hyper Pro Plus launches in Q2 in Italy, Romania and Greece | |
| • | Expect low double-digit revenue decline in H1 and FY, driven by material inventory movements in Japan, and competitive intensity in the value segment | |
| • | Improving volume share performance in H2 with glo Hilo scale and phased Hyper Pro Plus roll-outs |
3. Continued strong cash delivery, and balanced capital allocation
| • | On track to deliver operating cash flow conversion10 in excess of 95% in FY26 | |
| • | We expect to be within our 2.0-2.5x adjusted net debt/adjusted EBITDA target range4 by year-end, while maintaining a progressive dividend and sustainable share buy-backs, with £1.3bn in 2026 | |
Technical guidance for FY26:
| • | Global cigarette industry volume expected to be down c.2.5% (previously c.2%) | |
| • | Lower end of our medium-term guidance ranges: | |
| • | 3-5% revenue growth, mid-teens (previously low double-digit) New Category revenue growth | |
| • | 4-6% adjusted profit from operations3 growth – H2 weighted | |
| • | Expected c.1% transactional FX11 headwind | |
| • | 5-8% adjusted diluted EPS3 growth | |
| • | Translational FX11 headwind of 2-3% on half-year and full-year adjusted diluted EPS growth | |
| • | Net finance costs3 of c.£1.75bn, (previously £1.8bn) subject to interest rate volatility | |
| • | Operating cash flow conversion10 in excess of 95%, gross capital expenditure of c.£750m | |
| • | Leverage4 within our 2.0-2.5x adjusted net debt/adjusted EBITDA target corridor by year end | |

Financial guidance and trading update expectations based on constant rates: Measures are calculated based on the prior year’s exchange rate, removing the potentially distorting effect of translational foreign exchange on the Group’s results.

This announcement also contains New Category contribution, adjusted profit from operations, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted net debt, adjusted net finance costs and adjusted profit attributable to shareholders, all of which are before the impact of adjusting items and which are reconciled from profit from operations, borrowings, net finance costs and profit attributable to shareholders. See “Note on Non-GAAP Measures”.

Adjusted for Canada: Certain adjusted measures, including adjusted profit from operations, category contribution, net finance costs, adjusted diluted earnings per share, leverage and adjusted EBITDA, are also presented on an “adjusted for Canada” basis, reflecting the removal of 100% of adjusted profit from operations of our Canadian business, excluding New Categories, from 2025 results and 85% from 2026 results, to remove the distorting effect of the Canadian results, as from 29 August 2025, the date all of the Group’s outstanding tobacco litigation in Canada was settled. Annual payments based on a percentage (initially 85%, reducing over time) of the Group’s net income after taxes, based on amounts generated in Canada from all sources, excluding New Categories, will be paid out by the Group until the aggregate settlement amount is paid.

Notes to the analysis of profit from operations above:
* Adjusting items represent certain items which the Group considers distinctive based upon their size, nature or incidence.
Note on Non-GAAP Measures
This announcement contains several forward-looking non-GAAP measures used by management to monitor the Group’s performance. For the non-GAAP information contained in this announcement, no comparable GAAP or IFRS information is available on a forward-looking basis and our forward-looking revenue and other components of the Group’s results, including adjusting items, cannot be estimated with reasonable certainty due to, among other things, the impact of foreign exchange and adjusting items, which could be significant, being highly variable. As such, no reconciliations for this forward-looking non-GAAP information are available and we are unable to: present revenue before presenting constant currency revenue; or present profit from operations before presenting adjusted profit from operations at constant rates as adjusted for Canada; or present diluted EPS before presenting adjusted EPS at constant rates as adjusted for Canada; or present profit/(loss) for the year before presenting adjusted EBITDA at constant rates as adjusted for Canada.
One non-GAAP measure which the Group uses and that is contained in this announcement is operating cash conversion, a non-GAAP measure defined as net cash generated from operating activities before the impact of adjusting items and dividends from associates and excluding trading loans to third parties, pension short fall funding, taxes paid and net capital expenditure, as a proportion of adjusted profit from operations. This announcement also contains New Category contribution, adjusted profit from operations, adjusted diluted earnings per share, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net debt and adjusted net finance costs, all of which are before the impact of adjusting items and which are reconciled from profit from operations, diluted earnings per share, profit / (loss) for the year, net debt and borrowings.
Adjusting items, as identified in accordance with the Group’s accounting policies, represent certain items of income and expense which the Group considers distinctive based on their size, nature or incidence. These include significant items in, profit from operations, net finance costs, taxation and the Group’s share of the post-tax results of associates and joint ventures which individually or, if of a similar type, in aggregate, are relevant to an understanding of the Group’s underlying financial performance. Although the Group does not believe that these measures are a substitute for IFRS measures, the Group does believe such results excluding the impact of adjusting items provide additional useful information to investors regarding the underlying performance of the business on a comparable basis.
| 6 |
The Group’s Management Board reviews a number of our IFRS and non-GAAP measures for the Group and its geographic segments at constant rates of exchange. This allows comparison of the Group’s results, had they been translated at the previous year’s average rates of exchange. The Group does not adjust for the normal transactional gains and losses in operations that are generated by exchange movements. Although the Group does not believe that these measures are a substitute for IFRS measures, the Group does believe that such results excluding the impact of currency fluctuations year-on-year provide additional useful information to investors regarding the operating performance on a local currency basis.
The Group’s Management Board regularly reviews the measures used to assess and present the financial performance of the Group and, as relevant, its geographic segments, and believes that these measures provide additional useful information to investors. Certain of our measures are presented based on an adjusted basis and on a constant currency basis. Please refer to the 2025 Annual Report on Form 20-F for a full description of each measure alongside non-financial measures, pages 23 to 24, 42 to 48, 71 to 75, 102 to 109 and 160 to 162.

Share Buyback Programme
Further to the share buyback programme announcement on 18 March 2024 (“the Programme”), and the subsequent extension of the Programme announced on 10 December 2025, the Company announces that it has entered into an irrevocable, non-discretionary agreement with UBS AG London Branch to purchase ordinary shares of the Company (“Shares”) during the closed period commencing on 30 June 2026 and ending at the close of business on 29 July 2026, the day prior to the release of its half year preliminary results.
UBS AG London Branch will make its trading decisions in relation to the Company’s Shares independently of, and uninfluenced by, the Company.
The purpose of the Programme is to reduce the share capital of the Company. The Shares repurchased will be cancelled.
Any purchases of Shares by the Company in relation to this announcement will be undertaken within certain pre-set parameters, and in accordance with the Company’s general authority to repurchase shares granted by its shareholders from time to time (at the Company's 2026 AGM, shareholders granted the Company authority to purchase a maximum of 217,492,219 Shares (the “Authority”)), the Market Abuse Regulation 596/2014 and the Commission Delegated Regulation (2016/1052), in each case as such legislation forms part of domestic law by virtue of section 3 of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (as amended), and Chapter 9.6 of the Financial Conduct Authority's UK Listing Rules.
Pursuant to the Authority, the maximum price which may be paid for a Share is an amount (exclusive of taxes and expenses) equal to the higher of:
| - | 105 per cent of the average market value of a Share as derived from the LSE's Daily Official List for the five business days immediately preceding the day on which the Share is purchased, in accordance with Listing Rule 9.6.1 of the Listing Rules published pursuant to Part 6 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 ("FSMA") (the "Listing Rules"); and | |
| - | the higher of (i) the price of the last independent trade and (ii) the highest current independent purchase bid on the trading venue where the purchase is carried out, including when the shares are traded on different trading venues, in accordance with Article 3(2) of the UK Safe Harbour Regulation. |

Exhibit 15
British American Tobacco p.l.c. (the “Company”)
Quarterly Dividends for the year ended 31 December 2025:
Payment No. 2 – August 2026 (the “August 2026 Dividend”)
South Africa Branch Register Finalisation Information
On 12 February 2026, the Company announced that the Board had declared an interim dividend of 245.04p per ordinary share of 25p, payable in four equal quarterly instalments of 61.26p per ordinary share in May 2026, August 2026, November 2026 and February 2027.
The August 2026 Dividend will be payable on 14 August 2026 to shareholders registered on either the UK main register or the South Africa branch register on 10 July 2026 (the record date).
In accordance with the JSE Limited (“JSE”) Listing Requirements, the finalisation information for the August 2026 Dividend relating to shareholders registered on the South Africa branch register is set out in the paragraphs below.
The salient dates and other dividend declaration information announced on 12 February 2026 remain unchanged for the August 2026 Dividend.
South Africa Branch Register: Dividend Rate
The British American Tobacco Group reports in sterling, therefore dividends are declared and payable in sterling except for shareholders on the branch register in South Africa whose dividends are payable in rand. A rate of exchange of £:R=21.7279 as at 26 June 2026 (the closing rate on that date as quoted by Bloomberg), results in an equivalent August 2026 Dividend of 1,331.05115 SA cents per ordinary share.
South Africa Branch Register: Dividends Tax Information
South Africa Dividends Tax (at a rate of 20%), equivalent to 266.21023 cents per ordinary share, will be withheld from the gross August 2026 Dividend paid to shareholders on the South Africa branch register, unless a shareholder qualifies for an exemption. After Dividends Tax has been withheld, the net dividend will be 1,064.84092 cents per ordinary share. The August 2026 Dividend is regarded as a ‘foreign dividend’ for the purposes of the South Africa Dividends Tax. For the purposes of South Africa Dividends Tax reporting, the source of income for the payment of the August 2026 Dividend is the United Kingdom.
At the close of business on 26 June 2026 (the latest practicable date prior to the date of the declaration of the South African rand equivalent of the August 2026 Dividend), the Company had a total of 2,165,549,196 ordinary shares in issue (excluding treasury shares). The Company held 132,661,181 ordinary shares in treasury giving a total issued share capital of 2,298,210,377 ordinary shares.
British American Tobacco p.l.c. is registered with the South African Revenue Service (SARS) with tax reference number 9378193172.
For the avoidance of doubt, Dividends Tax and the information provided above is of only direct application to shareholders on the South Africa branch register. Shareholders on the South Africa branch register should direct any questions regarding the application of Dividends Tax to Computershare Investor Services Proprietary Limited, contact details for which are given below:
