There are several developments from the Brown-Forman Corporation Class B (BF-B). Firstly, the company increased its cash dividend for the 41st consecutive year. This reflects the company's strong financial stability. However, its iconic brand, Jack Daniel's Tennessee Whiskey is reportedly out of favour temporarily. This has contributed to a drop in the company's sales and earnings. It's also suggested that Brown-Forman's overall stock is underperforming within the consumer defensive sector.
In terms of acquisitions, the company recently completed the takeover of the Diplomático Rum brand. Moreover, the company began a $400 million share repurchase program. BF-B did manage to outperform the market on one Monday mentioned, indicating potential market resilience.
Despite these trials, many still view the company as a valuable investment. Some analysts recommending it as a stock to buy during big tech slumps. Others question its high P/E multiple, while certain hedge funds consider it the best alcohol stock to own.
