What the Analysts think about Brown-Forman

Analyst projections of the future price of Brown-Forman stock.

Bulls say / Bears say

Ready-to-drink sales rose 20% in the quarter, with New Mix up 48% as it expands in the US; Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Blackberry is also growing internationally. This gives Brown-Forman fresh products to counter weaker trends in established spirits. (Brown-Forman Corporation)
Underlying profitability and cash generation held up despite slightly lower sales: organic operating income rose 4%, gross margin expanded 40 basis points and free cash flow increased by $32 million to $161 million. That resilience suggests cost control is helping cushion the downturn. (Brown-Forman Corporation)
Brown-Forman has paid a regular dividend for 82 consecutive years and increased it for 42 consecutive years. That long record may appeal to investors seeking a steady income stream, though it does not guarantee future increases. (Brown-Forman Corporation)
Demand remains weak in developed markets, where consumers are cutting back; US-made spirits also remain off shelves in most Canadian provinces. That puts pressure on important markets beyond the company’s control. (U.S. News)
Weakness extends beyond a single brand: organic tequila sales fell 13% and used-barrel sales fell 61% in the latest quarter, while whiskey sales were flat. Growth in ready-to-drink products is having to offset declines elsewhere in the portfolio. (Brown-Forman Corporation)
Management expects roughly flat organic sales and a 3% to 5% fall in organic operating income for fiscal 2027. Higher costs in whiskey stocks laid down during the pandemic are also expected to weigh on gross margin over the next couple of years. (Brown-Forman Corporation, Investing.com)
