STZ’s wine and spirits segment has struggled with persistent headwinds related to shifting consumer preferences, competitive pressures and operational inefficiencies, weighing on overall performance. The company has been witnessing soft consumer demand and continued retailer inventory destocking in most price segments in the U.S. wholesale market. Further, consumer demand remains weak in the wine category, mainly in the lower-price segments.On the last reported quarter’s earnings call, management expects sales for the wine and spirits segment to decline 5-8% year over year for fiscal 2025, with a 17-19% drop in operating income.Constellation Brands witnessed higher packaging and raw material costs from continued inflationary pressures. Also, increased depreciation and operating costs from brewery capacity expansions act as deterrents.The company has been witnessing a challenging operating backdrop, including the ongoing consumer dynamics. The subdued overall spend and prolonged value-seeking behavior in consumers might affect the company’s demand. Also, the macro shifts, mainly any change from potential tariff policies, might act as deterrents. These trends and the expected tariffs are expected to have impacted the company’s margins in the to-be-reported quarter.Constellation Brands Inc Price and EPS Surprise Constellation Brands Inc price-eps-surprise | Constellation Brands Inc QuoteConsequently, on the last reported quarter’s earnings call, the company lowered its earnings per share (EPS) outlook for fiscal 2025. The company now envisions comparable EPS of $13.40-$13.80 for fiscal 2025 compared with the earlier estimate of $13.60-$13.80. STZ anticipates enterprise operating income on a reported basis to decline 62-65% for fiscal 2025. Corporate expenses and net interest expenses are expected to be $250 million and $410 million, respectively, for fiscal 2025.However, the company’s beer segment remains resilient, with minimal impact from broader economic conditions. Constellation Brands’ beer division is expected to have benefited from cost-saving measures and efficiency initiatives, though increased marketing investments are likely to have slightly offset these gains. This is expected to have been reflected in the beer segment’s operating income for the to-be-reported quarter.The company is poised for continued growth in its beer portfolio, driven by brands like Modelo Especial, Corona Extra, Pacifico and Modelo Chelada. The beer segment’s premiumization strategy, including flavored beers and seltzers, is expected to have boosted the top line in the fiscal fourth quarter.On the last reported quarter’s earnings call, management anticipates enterprise net sales to increase 2-5% and the comparable operating income to improve 6-9% for fiscal 2025. It projects 4-7% sales growth, inclusive of 1-2% pricing for the beer segment. The company expects operating income to improve 9-12% and an operating margin of nearly 39% for the beer segment.STZ Stock’s Valuation PictureFrom a valuation perspective, Constellation Brands offers an attractive opportunity, trading at a discount relative to historical and industry benchmarks.
