Beverages - Wineries & Distilleries Stocks
Beverages - Wineries & Distilleries: Brown-Forman Corporation owns the largest revenue base AND the fastest current growth.
01 · the industry itself · before any single company
How has Beverages - Wineries & Distilleries moved against S&P 500?
The line below covers up to 5.2 years and opens on the 5Y view; the buttons cut it shorter. Over the most recent two of them this industry is 45% behind S&P 500. Earnings across its companies fell 48% on average over the last four reported quarters.

Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the distance between them is the whole story: the industry line is an equal-weighted index of its 5 companies. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member rebased to 100 at the start and the industry taking the median — so a price line pulling away from flat bars is a re-rating, not earnings. A bar turns red when that figure is lower than the quarter before. Rules are fixed and applied identically everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while earnings grew 20% or more. Hover any point to read both values and the gap. This is a description of what the numbers did, not advice.
02 · sector relative strength, before individual stocks
Is Beverages - Wineries & Distilleries outperforming S&P 500?

The central tension: current leadership is concentrated, so durability matters more than rank.
Start with scale. Then earnings trajectory. Then business quality. Only after those three agree should price leadership carry much weight.

4-Factor Sector Score
An additive sector-relative research score. The four displayed point contributions always equal the total: Growth & earnings (35), Capital efficiency (25), Valuation (20), and Relative strength (20). Missing or stale evidence is absorbed inside the affected factor, never applied as a hidden adjustment.
Growth & earnings · 35%Capital efficiency · 25%Valuation · 20%Relative strength · 20%
Brown-Forman Corporation has the strongest current balance of earnings trajectory, business quality, valuation and price confirmation, with 79.3% evidence confidence.
Brown-Forman Corporation looks inexpensive relative to peers or its own history, but its earnings trajectory has not yet earned the valuation signal.
How this score is built, and what the marks mean
Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. PEG is not shown when the ratio cannot mean anything: the company must be making a profit, its price-to-earnings must be positive, and its three-year earnings growth must fall between 5% and 60%. Dividing a price multiple by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, produces a number that looks precise and tells you nothing. Under relative strength, one mark per week shows the last 12 weeks: a mark is filled where the company led S&P 500 by 5% or more over the 13 weeks ending that week, which is the same test used everywhere on this site. Price stage places the company on the same six-step curve the sector itself is placed on — basing, turning, breaking out, leader, fading, asleep — read from how many weeks running it has led S&P 500 and whether that lead is widening or shrinking. It describes where the PRICE stands, not the earnings trajectory and not a recommendation, and it is left blank for a company whose weekly history is too short or too stale to read.

04 · what price has already done
Market action
Brown-Forman Corporation has the strongest one-year price move in Beverages - Wineries & Distilleries at -7.5%. It also leads on Mansfield relative strength against the S&P 500 at -7.5%. 0 of 4 covered companies are above zero on that measure. Every line covers 314 weekly closes through 2026-08-04.
Price and relative strength
Every company, the sector's own index and S&P 500 all start level on the left edge of the window, so only the distance between the lines counts — the highest line has risen the most since then, and the chart at the top of this page is drawn the same way. It opens on one year; the buttons beside it stretch that to three or five.
How far ahead of or behind S&P 500 each company has been running, measured against its own recent average of that comparison, so the flat line at zero IS S&P 500: above it the company is beating the market, below it the market is beating the company. It opens on one year.
The same measure taken against Beverages - Wineries & Distilleries itself instead of the whole market, so the flat line at zero is the sector: above it the company is beating its own peers, which is the sharper test of the two. It opens on one year.

Revenue Scale & Growth Durability
Brown-Forman Corporation has the highest Revenue among the 5 Beverages - Wineries & Distilleries companies compared here, at $3,928 million. The same company also holds the highest Revenue growth, at -1.2%. 1 of 5 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026. Its Revenue series carries 20 reported observations across the 20-quarter window.
What the numbers say: Brown-Forman Corporation is the scale leader at $3,928 million, Brown-Forman Corporation's growth is -1.2% from a $3,928 million base, with 20 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.
LeaderBrown-Forman Corporation · $3,928 million
GapNot enough peers
Persistence2/8 recent comparable periods
Coverage1/5 companies · 69 observations
Investor read: Brown-Forman Corporation is the scale benchmark; Brown-Forman Corporation is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns.
This conclusion weakens if: Brown-Forman Corporation's growth falls below Brown-Forman Corporation's for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.
Revenue is compared on a common reported-currency basis. Growth is year-on-year, so seasonality does not masquerade as progress.

Return On Capital Employed
Brown-Forman Corporation has the highest ROCE among the 5 Beverages - Wineries & Distilleries companies compared here, at 16.6%. Diageo plc is next at 4.2%. SNDL Inc. has the highest ROCE change at +1.5 percentage points, so level and change sit with different companies. 5 of 5 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026.
What the numbers say: Brown-Forman Corporation leads ROCE at 16.6%, 12.4 percentage points above Diageo plc. SNDL Inc. has the strongest latest improvement at +1.5 percentage points. Read the leader beside the density of its reported history: a sparse high return is a candidate; a repeated high return is evidence of durability.

Valuation Against Growth & Quality
Brown-Forman Corporation has the lowest PEG among the 5 Beverages - Wineries & Distilleries companies compared here, at 0.67×. SNDL Inc. has the lowest P/E at -37.2×, so level and change sit with different companies. 1 of 5 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Jun 2026. Its PEG series carries 4 reported observations across the 20-quarter window.
What the numbers say: Brown-Forman Corporation has the lowest comparable PEG at 0.67×. Only 1 of 5 companies have earnings and growth steady enough for the ratio to mean anything, so no broad “cheapest stock” conclusion is defensible unless the current multiple, own-history position and growth durability agree.

Investor read: Treat valuation as permission to investigate, never as a standalone reason to buy.
This conclusion weakens if: The next two comparable reports reverse the current p/e signal.
PEG is shown only when earnings are positive and three-year EPS growth is between 5% and 60%. It is recomputed consistently as the trailing P/E divided by that growth rate — reported earnings, never an expected-earnings multiple. On Indian companies it is shown only where the two data feeds agreed. Where any of that fails the ratio is left out rather than printed: a P/E divided by a loss, or by growth measured off a tiny base, is a number that looks precise and means nothing.

10 · before the conclusion, check the blind spots
What can make this comparison misleading?
This Beverages - Wineries & Distilleries comparison names 6 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. 2 of the 5 companies report on an older date than the sector's freshest reporters, so their ranks are marked stale. 3 of the 5 ranked sections have fewer than three usable current readings.
Keep these limits visible
- A high growth rate can be a low-base artefact. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
- A high ROCE can be temporary or flattered by a small capital base. Read it beside margin, cash conversion and reinvestment.
- The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks research priority, not portfolio action. Management quality, catalysts and risks need equally fresh evidence before capital is deployed.
- An “all companies” line chart preserves completeness, but rank changes should be checked against reporting dates before drawing a conclusion.
- 2 companies have older fundamental reporting dates than the sector’s freshest reporters; their ranks carry a stale marker.
- Thin comparisons: Revenue, Net profit, Valuation have fewer than three usable current readings.

Is this investment advice?
No. Every figure here is a deterministic calculation from reported company filings and market data, published for research. It contains no recommendation to buy or sell any security, does not account for your circumstances, and is not a substitute for advice from a licensed adviser.
