10%Constellation Brands reported second-quarter fiscal 2027 earnings of $3.74 per share on $2.63 billion in revenue, beating Wall Street expectations of $3.56 per share and $2.54 billion. Beer revenue rose 5% to $2.47 billion, though depletions fell 0.6%, with Modelo Especial down 2% and Corona Extra down 5%. Chief executive Nicholas Fink said consumers now treat beer as occasion-driven rather than default purchases. Hispanic consumers account for 40% of beer revenue but face labour market and household finance pressures. To diversify, Constellation acquired SpikedAde, a spirit-based ready-to-drink brand, for $75 million upfront plus up to $278 million contingent on performance. The company raised its full-year reported EPS outlook to $11.85–$12.55 from $11.50–$12.20.

The company is tailoring products for specific occasions and younger drinkers, focusing on sports and music events. Constellation acquired SpikedAde, a spirit-based ready-to-drink brand, for $75 million upfront, with potential payments reaching $353 million. The deal provides entry into the fast-growing RTD segment, where premixed cocktail sales grew 16.4% in 2025 to $3.8 billion.
Constellation Brands reported second-quarter fiscal 2027 net income of $565.8 million, or $3.32 per share, up from $466.0 million, or $2.65 per share, a year earlier. Net sales rose 6% to $2.63 billion, with beer revenue up 5% and wine and spirits revenue up 17%. On a comparable basis, the company earned $3.74 per share, beating the $3.55 analyst estimate. Revenue also exceeded the $2.54 billion consensus forecast. Beer segment shipment volumes rose 5.5%, whilst depletions slipped 0.6%. The wine and spirits segment swung to a $6.1 million operating profit from a $19.8 million operating loss a year earlier. Constellation acquired SpikedAde for $75 million, with up to $278 million in additional contingent payments over five years.

Dow futures fell 108 points, or 0.2%, whilst S&P 500 futures remained broadly unchanged and Nasdaq 100 futures declined 0.1%. The Fed minutes could provide additional insight into policymakers' views on inflation and the future path of interest rates. Market expectations for another rate increase have declined following weaker-than-expected employment data. SpaceX is reportedly seeking to raise approximately $40 billion to finance purchases of Nvidia chips, according to the Financial Times. The proposed financing would include $10 billion in bank loans and $30 billion of investment-grade debt. Constellation Brands shares fell in after-hours trading despite reporting second-quarter results above market expectations.
