Supreme Reports 180% Increase in Profits and 63% Revenue Growth
UK consumer goods manufacturer and supplier Supreme reported a 180% increase in pre-tax profit for the six months ending September 30, reaching £12.3m, and a 63% increase in revenue to £105.1m.

According to Zonebourse, Supreme, a consumer goods manufacturer and supplier based in Manchester, UK, reported on November 28th that the company's pre-tax profit for the six months ending on September 30th was £12.3 million, an increase of 180% compared to £4.4 million last year. The company also recorded a revenue of £105.1 million, a 63% increase from £64.6 million last year.

 

According to the latest report from Supreme PLC, the revenue of its e-cigarette brand division has experienced a significant increase, reaching £30.6 million. This accounts for 86% of the total revenue of the division for the first half of this year, showing a substantial growth compared to last year's £3.4 million. Within this division, ELFBAR has played a major role, contributing £26.4 million in revenue, which equates to 25.1% of the company's total revenue.

 

Supreme emphasized that while it does not manufacture or own ELFBAR, it has signed a distribution agreement with them. The company clearly stated that the introduction of ELFBAR has not had a significant impact on the profit margins in this category. Looking ahead, Supreme stated that the second half of the year has been performing well, with all departments showing a growth trend.

 

The projected revenue for the fiscal year 2024 is expected to be between £210 million and £225 million, showing an improvement from the March forecast of £195 million to £205 million. This represents a growth of at least 61% compared to the £130.8 million revenue generated in the fiscal year 2023.

Wall Street Journal: U.S. FDA Plans Faster Vape and Nicotine Pouch Reviews, Revisit of 2021 PMTA Rule
The Trump administration is preparing changes intended to accelerate FDA market authorization reviews for e-cigarettes and nicotine pouches, according to The Wall Street Journal. The FDA is expected to revisit its 2021 PMTA rule and may simplify some scientific study requirements and shorten review times. The agency has not formally announced the changes. Over the past year, the FDA has already accelerated nicotine-pouch reviews, expanded ENDS authorizations and upgraded its CTP Portal NextGen application system. As of August 2026, 43 nicotine pouch products and 48 e-cigarette products had received FDA marketing authorization.

Yinghe-Controlled Vape Maker SKE Ordered to Post £569,039 Security as It Pursues Crystal Bar Design Infringement Case in UK
The UK High Court has ordered Chinese vape manufacturer Shenzhen SKE Technology to provide £569,039 ($776,000) in security for costs in its design infringement proceedings against Vapepen London and other defendants over its Crystal Bar vape product. The court did not accept the defendants’ main argument that recovering costs from a China-based company would face significant enforcement obstacles, but found that SKE had not sufficiently disclosed its own financial position. The order is procedural and does not determine the underlying infringement claims.

PMI Pushes Smoke-Free Business in Latin America as Argentina Lifts Heated Tobacco Ban, Mexico City Share Tops 7%
Philip Morris International (PMI) showcased IQOS heated tobacco systems and nicotine pouch products at Technovation 2026 in Buenos Aires on October 7–8, presenting research on consumer attitudes, regulatory developments and illicit cigarette trade across Latin America. PMI Chief Global Growth Officer Stefano Volpetti said smoke-free products accounted for more than 7% of the Mexico City market. Argentina repealed its heated tobacco ban in May 2026 and introduced registration requirements for tobacco and nicotine products, while local media reported nicotine pouch sales in Mendoza. A PMI-commissioned survey found that only 8% of respondents across four Latin American countries were familiar with nicotine pouches. A separate KPMG study estimated illicit cigarette consumption at 77 billion sticks across 11 markets in Latin America and Canada in 2025.
