Constellation Brands stock slips as guidance and targets reset
Published on 09/03/2026 at 21:48 | Editorial responsibility: Rafael Müller, Editor-in-Chief AD HOC NEWS
Constellation Brands Inc. stock (ISIN US21036P1084) opened at $129.42 on September 3, 2026, with a market capitalization of $22.10 billion and a one-year low of $126.45. MarketBeat says the shares were down 0.93 percent, and the same page puts the average analyst target at $170.00.
June quarter sets the tone
The last reported quarter brought revenue of $2.43 billion, down 3.3 percent year over year, while adjusted EPS came in at $3.43 versus a consensus of $3.70. That gap left the stock with a weaker near-term setup, even though revenue still topped the Street view of $2.39 billion.
Constellation Brands also set FY 2027 guidance at 11.200-11.900 EPS, a range that frames the next catalyst more clearly than the recent quarter alone. For investors, the spread between the $129.42 share price and the $170.00 consensus target remains a live benchmark.
Analysts stay mixed
MarketBeat's coverage shows 11 Buy ratings, nine Hold ratings and one Sell rating, which translates into an average Hold call. The same data set gives the stock a 12.35 P/E ratio and a 3.2 percent dividend yield.
That combination matters because the stock is already close to its one-year low while still trading on a market-cap base above $22 billion. The July to September analyst reset has kept valuation and guidance in the same sentence.
Constellation Brands guidance and valuation
The latest quarter, the FY 2027 earnings range and the consensus target show why the stock is being judged on earnings power rather than sales alone.
Beer remains the core
Constellation Brands remains best known for beer, wine and spirits, with imported beer brands doing most of the heavy lifting in the United States. The stock still trades with the beer business, the margin profile and the pace of earnings guidance revisions.
Price and range
At $129.42 on September 3, 2026, the shares sat near the lower end of their one-year band between $126.45 and $168.60. That leaves the current quote closer to support than to the consensus target of $170.00.
