Description: STZ Constellation Brands October 14, 2025

Constellation Brands Inc. (NYSE: STZ) is a diversified alcoholic-beverage company that produces, imports, markets, and distributes beer, wine, and spirits across the United States, Canada, Mexico, New Zealand, and Italy. Its beer portfolio includes Corona (Extra, Light, Hard Seltzer, Non-Alcoholic, etc.) and Modelo brands, while its wine lineup features Robert Mondavi, Kim Crawford, Meiomi, and The Prisoner, and its spirits business holds Casa Noble, High West, and SVEDKA among others. The firm sells through wholesale distributors, retailers, on-premise venues, and state alcohol-control agencies.

Key recent metrics (FY 2023) show revenue of approximately $9.6 billion, adjusted EPS of $2.70, and free cash flow of $1.2 billion, with net debt around $14 billion. The company’s growth is driven by premium-segment expansion (e.g., higher-margin craft and super-premium beers), the continued popularity of ready-to-drink seltzers, and favorable pricing power amid modest discretionary-spending resilience. However, exposure to excise-tax policy changes in the U.S. and currency fluctuations in its international markets adds material risk to earnings forecasts.
