USA: Constellation Brands downgraded to "Equal-weight" amid concerns over long-term beer volume growth
|
Morgan Stanley downgraded Constellation Brands (NYSE:STZ) to "Equal-weight" amid concerns over long-term beer volume growth due to shifting consumer trends and also on macroeconomic pressures, Yahoo Finance reported on February 27.
The brokerage pointed to structural challenges, including a decline in alcohol consumption among younger generations, increased health and wellness trends, cannabis competition, and muted overall beer industry growth.
“We are EW STZ, with increased concern over long term beer growth, including pressure from health/wellness, less younger age alcohol consumption than in prior generations, cannabis, competition,” analyst said.
It also flagged near-term pressures such as macroeconomic headwinds, Hispanic consumer sentiment post-elections, and high-end light beer discounting.
Morgan Stanley lowered its long-term beer depletion growth assumptions and noted potential earnings risks from possible Mexico tariffs, which could impact margins as Constellation expands capacity. However, it said the company’s already compressed valuation appears reasonable.
“A more mature STZ brand portfolio&muted category growth, but already compressed STZ valuation looks reasonable.”

USA: US Budweiser, Michelob prices safe from tariff impact for now
|
Tariffs on aluminium should not have a major impact on the U.S. prices of beers like Budweiser and Michelob Ultra in 2025, but could at a later date, Anheuser-Busch InBev CEO Michel Doukeris said on February 26, Reuters reported.
AB InBev, the world's top beer maker, brews both labels as well as others like Bud Light and Corona, including in the United States where it has can manufacturing operations.
Doukeris told Reuters that for the U.S. market the company buys prepared aluminium for cans mostly from local U.S. companies, but these firms source the raw metal from all over the world.
The cost of the prepared aluminium AB InBev buys could rise as a result of tariffs, and the brewer could also face a secondary impact from levies affecting other materials like chemicals, he said.
These risks have prompted some brewers, especially craft beer makers, to warn of rising prices for their products.
Doukeris anticipated the impact of tariffs to be limited in 2025, thanks to factors like hedging, but he said it could become more pronounced in 2026 if tariffs come into full force.
The company has "different levers" it could pull to mitigate the impact, he said, including raising the price of its beers.

DR Congo: Heineken reports disruption amid DR Congo conflict
|
Heineken sites in DR Congo have been hit by the recent conflict in the east of the country.
The brewing giant said facilities in two cities have been affected.
Last month, the so-called M23 rebels took over territory that included the cities of Bukavu and Goma.
Heineken said its local subsidiary Bralima had suspended its operations before the fighting reached the cities.
In Bukavu, Bralima’s depots and brewery in Bukavu had subsequently been “extensively looted”.
Stock, raw materials and equipment was stolen and there was “significant damage” to the brewery control room, Heineken said in a statement. “Assessing the full extent of the damage will take time,” it said.
A dept 120km further south in Uvira has also been looted by “military and militia groups”, Heineken added. “We are greatly relieved that no Bralima colleagues or their families were harmed,” the Amstel brewer added.
Heineken, which has four breweries in DR Congo, said Bralima “will continue to operate as normal in the remainder of DRC while taking all precautions necessary to protect our colleagues” in the country.
Dolf van den Brink, Heineken’s chair and CEO, worked as a commercial director at Bralima from 2005 to 2009.
The Dutch beer behemoth does not disclose its sales in DR Congo.
