With a market cap of $12.2 billion, Brown-Forman Corporation (BF.B) is a leading global producer and marketer of premium alcoholic beverages. Its diverse portfolio includes iconic brands such as Jack Daniel’s, Woodford Reserve, Herradura, and el Jimador, spanning whiskey, tequila, vodka, gin, and ready-to-drink cocktails.

Companies worth more than $10 billion are generally labeled as “large-cap” stocks and Brown-Forman fits this criterion perfectly. Operating in over 30 countries, the company distributes its products through a combination of direct and partner channels, serving both retail customers and consumers worldwide.

Despite this, shares of the Louisville, Kentucky-based company have declined 48.3% from its 52-week high of $49.89. BF.B stock has decreased 27.8% over the past three months, underperforming the Nasdaq Composite’s ($NASX) 9.6% rise over the same time frame.

In the longer term, BF.B stock is down over 32% on a YTD basis, lagging behind NASX’s 1.1% gain. Moreover, shares of Brown-Forman have declined 41.6% over the past 52 weeks, compared to NASX’s 9.3% return over the same time frame.

The stock has been trading below its 200-day moving average since last year.

Shares of Brown-Forman tumbled 17.9% on Jun. 5 after the company forecasted a low single-digit decline in both organic net sales and operating income for fiscal 2026. The company reported disappointing Q4 2025 results, with sales dropping 7% to $894 million and earnings per share of $0.31, missing expectations. Additional investor concerns were fueled by soft consumer spending, tariff risks, and Brown-Forman's warning of a challenging year ahead.

In contrast, rival MGP Ingredients, Inc. (MGPI) has experienced a sharper decline over the past 52 weeks, with its stock dropping 60.2%, compared to the performance of Brown-Forman. However, on a YTD basis, MGPI’s stock has fallen 24.3%, a less severe decline than that of Brown-Forman’s shares.

Due to the stock’s underperformance, analysts remain cautious on Brown-Forman. The stock has a consensus rating of “Hold” from 17 analysts in coverage, and as of writing, BF.B is trading below the mean price target of $33.26.
