Constellation Brands Earnings: Profits Rise on Beer Resilience, but Wine and Spirits Still a Drag
We plan to maintain our $280 fair value estimate for wide-moat Constellation Brands after absorbing fiscal 2025 second-quarter results. Revenue grew 3%, led by a 6% increase in beer (87% of sales), which more than offset a 13% slump in wine and spirits. Adjusted earnings per share rose 14% on expense leverage and a lower share count due to buybacks. We are maintaining our fiscal 2025 projection for 6% sales growth and $13.70 in adjusted EPS and our 10-year forecast for 6% annual sales growth and operating margins in the low 30s. The shares look undervalued at a 12% discount to our intrinsic valuation.
