2. ABSTRACT
The overall percentage of conventional cigarette smokers has hit an all time low on a global scale,
stemming either from its escalating cost, or an increased awareness about potential health
hazards amongst smokers. In spite of a declining per capita consumption of cigarettes in the U.S.,
tobacco related mortality is the leading preventable cause of death in the country (according to
the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, CDC). In response to the cause, health
organizations and pharmaceutical companies over the years have been relentlessly trying to
introduce scientifically proven and efficient smoking cessation products such as nicotine gums
and patches.
Electronic cigarettes or e-cigarettes (as a substitute to conventional smoking) are electronic
devices wherein an atomizer (burning coil) converts a liquid (with or without nicotine) into vapor.
The primary intent of such devices was to imitate conventional cigarettes, evident from the first
generation, called ‘cig-a-likes’ or disposable e-cigarettes. The revenue generation through
the sales of e-cigarettes started gaining significant traction since 2012 and the market was able to
exhibit an unprecedented growth for almost three years, i.e. from 2012-2015. The U.S. accounted
for approximately 44% of the total e-cigarette market value as of 2015.
The first two years since the market started gaining traction in 2012, exhibited a dominance of
disposable and rechargeable starter kits in the market. However, owing to an increased
performance and long term cost effectiveness appeal, VTMs took over the market share of the
first and second generation e-cigarette devices since 2015. It is expected that disposable e-
cigarettes will only be purchased by first time vapers and the major market share will be held by
VTMs since they are perceived to be more beneficial for smoking cessation.
