Pernod Ricard Q1 sales fall 0.9% to $2.4B as US and China inventory cuts bite

Pernod Ricard reported first-quarter fiscal 2027 net sales of €2,234m on October 15, 2026. Organic sales fell 0.9%, while reported sales dropped 6.3%, hit by the disposal of Imperial Blue and Wines and by currency moves. Sales fell 10% in the US and 25% in China, both affected by inventory adjustments. Excluding those two markets, sales grew 4%. India rose 19%, and volumes overall grew 6%. The company expects broadly stable organic net sales for the full year. It aims for average organic growth near the lower end of a 3% to 6% range over fiscal 2027 to 2029, and a net debt to EBITDA ratio below 3x by fiscal 2029. It is also preparing for a potential IPO of its Indian business, subject to board approval.

Pernod Ricard warns US sales slump will drag growth to lower end of 3-6% target despite India boom

Pernod Ricard, the French distiller behind Jameson and Absolut vodka, reported sales of €9.4 billion for the 12 months through June, down 14% from the previous year. The company warned that continued weakness in the US spirits market will keep sales growth at the lower end of its 3%-6% annual target over the next three years. Sharp declines in the US and China dragged overall performance, though India showed strong growth. The company said American consumers face economic pressures and subdued confidence, whilst China's cognac sales have been hit by drinking restrictions on public officials. Pernod is cutting €1 billion in costs by 2028 and expanding ready-to-drink products to attract younger consumers. Shares fell over 7% following the announcement.

Pernod Ricard loses New Delhi licence appeal amid India collusion probe

A court in New Delhi has rejected Pernod Ricard's appeal to resume selling spirits in the Indian capital, according to Reuters. The judge cited an ongoing competition probe as grounds for denying the licence, declaring Pernod "ineligible" whilst under investigation. India's Competition Commission is examining allegations that Pernod illegally colluded with retailers to boost sales in New Delhi, claims the company "unequivocally denies". The French spirits giant insists its business practices fully adhere to Indian laws and regulations. India represents a significant market for Pernod, accounting for 13% of its €10.96 billion net sales in the 2024/2025 financial year. The company declined to comment on the reported ruling.

Brown-Forman and Pernod Ricard call off merger talks

Brown-Forman and Pernod Ricard have terminated merger discussions, both companies announced on 28 April. The potential deal would have united the Louisville-based maker of Jack Daniel's and Woodford Reserve with France's second-largest spirits producer, which owns Absolut Vodka and Jameson Irish Whiskey. The companies were "unable to reach mutually acceptable terms" since confirming talks on 26 March. Brown-Forman said it will focus on expanding its geographic footprint and operational efficiency instead. The spirits industry has faced multi-year sales declines due to reduced consumer spending and health consciousness. Brown-Forman reported an 8% US sales decline and nearly 60% drop in Canada in March. Separately, Sazerac reportedly made a $15 billion bid for Brown-Forman in mid-April, though neither company has commented publicly.
