Description: DEO Diageo January 29, 2026
Diageo plc (NYSE: DEO) is a London-based global alcoholic-beverages group operating across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, Latin America, the Caribbean and Africa. Its portfolio spans beer, whisky, gin, vodka, rum, liqueur, wine and ready-to-drink formats, anchored by marquee brands such as John Walker, Guinness, Smirnoff, Baileys, Don Julio and Crown Royal.
In the most recent quarter (Q3 2024), Diageo reported net sales of $7.1 billion, up 5.2 % year-over-year, driven by a 9 % premium-spirits volume increase in emerging markets and a 4 % price-realization gain in North America. Adjusted operating margin held steady at 22.5 %, while free cash flow reached $1.8 billion, supporting a 3.2 % dividend yield and a 10-year dividend growth streak. The sector is currently influenced by three macro-drivers: (1) sustained consumer shift toward premium and “better-for-you” spirits, (2) favorable currency dynamics for the pound against the euro and yen, and (3) tightening global alcohol-tax regimes that pressure volume growth but can be offset by price-elastic premiumization.
