Brown-Forman: Sobering Headwinds, Intoxicating Value

BF-A, BF-B
Published: August 29, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Neutral

Brown-Forman faces near-term headwinds from declining US whiskey sales, health trends, and changing consumer preferences, but international growth and RTD products show promise. Despite mixed Q1 results and soft demand in developed markets, the company's strong brand portfolio and premiumization strategy support long-term resilience. Valuation remains reasonable with solid free cash flow, peer-leading margins, and a moat from iconic brands and aging inventory assets.

Published: August 29, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Negative

Brown-Forman published its results for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 yesterday, which were received negatively by the market. In this article, I share my take on BF.A/BF.B's Q1 FY2026 results, focusing on profitability, the problematic inventory situation, and of course leverage. I also explain my strategy for investing in BF.A going forward, a stock that I believe could remain "dead money" for the foreseeable future.

BF-A, BF-B
Published: July 10, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Negative

Following the release of FY 2025 results, Brown-Forman's share price has hit a fresh multi-year low. Although fiscal year 2026 will present certain challenges for the business, it seems that negative market sentiment has gone too far. The stock appears significantly undervalued based on its ability to derive industry-leading margins.

Brown-Forman Corporation: I Still See More Downsides From Here

BF-A, BF-B
Published: June 06, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Negative

I reiterate my sell rating on Brown-Forman as demand weakness and pricing pressure intensify across key markets and brands. FY 2026 guidance signals further declines in organic sales and operating income, dashing hopes for a near-term recovery. A supply glut and collapsing high-margin used barrel sales create new profit headwinds, compounding existing challenges.

Brown-Forman Earnings Preview: A Whiskey Giant In A Sober World

BF-A, BF-B
Published: May 21, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Negative

Brown-Forman Corporation faces major headwinds: weak revenue growth, high short interest, and shifting consumer preferences, especially among Gen Z. Despite stable margins, valuation is unattractive with high PEG and EV/Sales multiples for a company with flat or negative growth. Upcoming earnings are expected to be weak due to seasonality, fading U.S. consumer strength, and inventory pressures.

Brown-Forman: Caught In The Perfect Storm, Finally A Buy (Rating Upgrade)

BF-A, BF-B
Published: February 14, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Positive

Brown-Forman Corporation stock is in the midst of a perfect storm characterized by a massive inventory overhang, a weak demand environment, rebounding inflation and, of course, the threat of tariffs. In this update, I explain why I – quite counterintuitively – finally moved BF.A/BF.B from my watch list to my buy list. However, due to the likely continued volatile environment and the possibility of a temporarily reduced dividend or outright suspension, I am proceeding cautiously in building up my position.
