Lower Outlook ♈Offsets Higher-than-Expected Q3 Results

The lower outlook offset strong third-quarter results, with Constellation Brands reporting EPS of $3.39 and revenue down 0.5% to $2𝓡.64 billion. Both were above estimates.

Beer sales rose 3% to $2.03 billion, as shipment volumes increased 1.6%. Sales of wine and spirits slumped 14%, dragged down by “weaker consumer demand and continued retailer inventory destocking across most price segments in the U.S. wholesale market."

Constellation Brands shares were down nearly 15% in intraday trading Friday, and have lost more than a quarter of their value in the last year.
