The story

Alliance One International was established in 2005, as a result of the corporate merger between Dimon Incorporated and Standard Commercial Corporation. The company changed its name to Pyxus International in 2018.

Dimon was founded in 1995, and later in 1997 it acquired Intabex Holdings Worldwide, which was the world's fourth-largest leaf merchant at the time. The company’s acquisition of Intabex was considered as the biggest one of that kind in the leaf history.

Standard Commercial Corporation, established in 1910, operated tobacco leaf business in Mediterranean area. It was the third-largest leaf merchant of the world prior to the merger with Dimon.

On June 15, 2020, Pyxus International Inc. filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy. The company's debtors emerged from bankruptcy on August 24, 2020.

Risk factors and legal proceedings

The risks Alliance One International names in Item 1A of its 10-K filed Jun 4, 2026: 38 risks under these headings, as written.16

  • Risks Related to Our Indebtedness
  • We may not be able to refinance or renew our indebtedness or be able to borrow under our ABL credit facility or other future credit facilities, which may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition.
  • We may not continue to have access to the capital markets to obtain long-term and short-term financing on acceptable terms and conditions.
  • We require a significant amount of cash to service our indebtedness, and our ability to generate cash depends on many factors beyond our control.
  • We have substantial debt which may adversely affect us by limiting future sources of financing, interfering with our ability to pay interest and principal on our indebtedness, and subjecting us to additional risks.
  • Despite current indebtedness levels, we may incur additional debt, which could increase the risks associated with our significant leverage.
  • Risks Related to Our Leaf Tobacco Operations
  • Our reliance on a small number of significant customers may adversely affect our financial results.
  • Vertical integration by our customers could materially adversely affect our financial performance.
  • Shifts in customer requirements for sourcing tobacco could negatively affect our organizational structure, asset base, and results of operations, including shifts resulting from the imposition of tariffs.
  • Our financial results will vary according to growing season conditions, customer indications, and other factors, which significantly impacts our ability to forecast our quarterly and annual financial performance.
  • Loss of confidence in us by our customers and suppliers may have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.
The other 28 risks
  • Suppliers who have historically grown tobacco may elect to grow other crops instead of tobacco, which could affect the global supply of tobacco and impact our financial performance.
  • Our advancement of inputs to tobacco suppliers could expose us to losses.
  • When we purchase tobacco directly from suppliers, we bear the risk that the tobacco will not meet our customers’ quality and quantity requirements.
  • Weather and other conditions can affect the marketability of our inventory, and climate change may adversely alter weather patterns in tobacco-growing regions.
  • Competition could erode our earnings.
  • Continued high inflation may adversely affect our profitability and the demand for our leaf tobacco products.
  • Risks Related to Our Financial Condition and Capital Structure
  • We may be unable to continue to access short-term operating credit lines to fund local operations on terms that are acceptable or at all.
  • We may not be able to achieve our stated goals, which may adversely affect our liquidity.
  • Failure of foreign banks in which our subsidiaries deposit funds or the failure of those foreign banks to transfer funds or honor withdrawals, may affect our results of operations.
  • Developments with respect to our liquidity needs and sources of liquidity could result in a deficiency in liquidity.
  • Derivative transactions may expose us to potential losses and counterparty risk.
  • Risks Related to the Scope of Our International Operations
  • We face increased risks of doing business due to the extent of our international operations.
  • We face risks related to global conflicts, which could significantly disrupt our operations and access to capital.
  • We are subject to the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the "FCPA"), and we operate in jurisdictions that pose a high risk of potential FCPA violations.
  • Changes in tax laws or challenges to our tax positions pursuant to ongoing tax audits could adversely affect our business.
  • Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange and interest rates could adversely affect our results of operations.
  • Risks Related to Other Aspects of Our Operations
  • We rely on internally and externally hosted information technology systems and disruption, failure, or security breaches of these systems could adversely affect our business.
  • We cannot assure you that material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting ("ICFR") will not be identified in the future.
  • Regulations regarding environmental matters may substantially increase our costs and expose us to potential liability.
  • We are subject to changing sustainability regulatory requirements and expectations, which exposes us to increased costs and legal and reputational risks.
  • Our joint venture manufactures and supplies e-liquid and consumable nicotine-related products, which inherently carry the risk of exposure to product liability claims, regulatory action, and litigation in the event such products are alleged to have caused injury, harm, or death, and the Company and our related joint venture could be affected by such actions through reputational impact or claims alleging that our supplied materials contributed to the alleged harm.
  • Risks Related to the Ownership of Our Common Stock
  • Certain shareholders have the ability to exercise controlling influence on various corporate matters.
  • The price of our common stock may be negatively impacted by factors that are unrelated to our operations.
  • Risks Related to the Tobacco Industry
  • Reductions in demand for cigarettes and other consumer tobacco products could adversely affect our results of operations.
  • Legislation, regulatory, and other governmental initiatives could impose burdensome restrictions on the tobacco industry and reduce consumption of consumer tobacco products and demand for our services.
  • The impact of potential regulations to prohibit the sale of cigarettes in the U.S., other than low-nicotine cigarettes, if they are adopted and become effective, is uncertain, but they could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
  • Government actions can have a significant effect on the sourcing of tobacco. If some of the current efforts are successful, we could have difficulty obtaining sufficient tobacco to meet our customers’ requirements, which could have an adverse effect on our performance and results of operations.
  • Certain of our predecessor companies have been subject to governmental investigations into, and litigation concerning, leaf tobacco industry buying and other payment practices.
