Constellation Brands stock (ISIN US21036P1084) was last quoted at USD 124.12 on September 14, 2026, after Jefferies cut its price target to USD 135 from USD 147 and kept a Hold rating. The move leaves the shares below MarketBeat's consensus target of USD 167.10, while the company still heads toward second-quarter fiscal 2027 results on October 6, 2026.

Jefferies trims the target

According to MarketBeat on September 14, 2026, Jefferies reduced its target for Constellation Brands to USD 135 from USD 147 and kept a Hold rating. The same report said the stock traded at USD 123.99 during the session and that the implied upside was 8.88 percent from that level.

MarketBeat also said the company's last reported quarter delivered EPS of USD 3.43, below the USD 3.70 consensus by USD 0.27, while revenue came in at USD 2.43 billion. That means the latest reported quarter still matters more than the target cut alone for investors watching margin and earnings power.

Quarterly numbers still drive the debate

MarketBeat also listed a consensus rating of Hold and an average price target of USD 167.10 across 23 analysts. Against the last close, that implies a gap of about 33.6 percent, which leaves the stock far from the top of its 52-week band.
