(unaudited)

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

We have prepared the Financial Statements, without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC applicable to quarterly reporting on Form 10-Q and reflect, in our opinion, all adjustments necessary to present fairly our financial information. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements, prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, have been condensed or omitted as permitted by such rules and regulations. These Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the 2025 Annual Report. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual results.

2. ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES

ACQUISITION

Sea Smoke

In June 2024, we acquired the Sea Smoke business, including a California-based luxury wine brand, vineyards, and a production facility for $158.7 million, net of closing and post-closing adjustments. This transaction also included the acquisition of goodwill, inventory, and a trademark. The results of operations of Sea Smoke are reported in the Wine and Spirits segment and have been included in our consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition.

DIVESTITURES

2025 Wine Divestitures

On June 2, 2025, we sold and, in certain instances, exclusively licensed the trademarks of a portion of our wine and spirits business, primarily centered around our then-owned mainstream wine brands and associated inventory, wineries, vineyards, offices, and facilities. The net cash proceeds from the 2025 Wine Divestitures were used for repayment of debt (see Note 11). Prior to the completion of the 2025 Wine Divestitures, we recorded the results of operations of the divested and exclusively licensed brands in the Wine and Spirits segment. The following table summarizes the net loss recognized in connection with this transaction:


(in millions)
Cash received from buyer	$	846.5
Net assets sold	(859.7)
Direct costs to sell	(2.5)
Loss on sale of business (1)	$	(15.7)

(1)Included in selling, general, and administrative expenses within our consolidated results of operations.

SVEDKA Divestiture

On January 6, 2025, we sold the SVEDKA brand and related assets, primarily including inventory and equipment. The net cash proceeds from the SVEDKA Divestiture were used for general corporate purposes, including funding share repurchases, capital expenditures, and repayment of debt. Prior to the SVEDKA Divestiture, we recorded the results of operations of the SVEDKA brand in the Wine and Spirits segment.

Mexicali Brewery sale

In July 2024, we sold the remaining assets classified as held for sale at the canceled Mexicali Brewery.

Other accrued expenses and liabilities (1)	33.7


Net assets held for sale	$	879.8

(1)Liabilities held for sale are included in the consolidated balance sheets within other accrued expenses and liabilities.

3. RESTRUCTURING

The 2025 Restructuring Initiative is an enterprise-wide cost savings and restructuring initiative designed to help optimize the performance of our business, including through enhanced organizational efficiency and optimized expenditures across our organization. The majority of the work associated with the 2025 Restructuring Initiative is expected to be completed within the year ending February 28, 2026, and is estimated to result in $80 million to $100 million of cumulative pre-tax costs once all phases are fully implemented. This range is estimated to be comprised of (i) employee termination costs (60%) and (ii) consulting services as well as other costs, which primarily include contract termination costs (40%).

We recognized pre-tax restructuring costs in connection with the 2025 Restructuring Initiative as follows:


	Results of Operations Location	For the Six Months Ended August 31, 2025		For the Three Months Ended August 31, 2025
(in millions)



Consulting services	Selling, general, and administrative expenses	$	21.5	$	8.2
Other costs	Selling, general, and administrative expenses	0.1		0.1
		$	21.6	$	8.3

Since the inception of the 2025 Restructuring Initiative, we have incurred the following pre-tax restructuring costs:

6. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

Overview

Our risk management and derivative accounting policies are presented in Notes 1 and 6 of our consolidated financial statements included in our 2025 Annual Report and have not changed significantly for the six months and three months ended August 31, 2025.


Constellation Brands, Inc. Q2 FY 2026 Form 10-Q			#WORTHREACHINGFOR I 9


FINANCIAL STATEMENTS			NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS			Table of Contents

The aggregate notional value of outstanding derivative instruments is as follows:


	August 31, 2025		February 28, 2025
(in millions)
Derivative instruments designated as hedging instruments
Foreign currency contracts	$	2,776.6	$	2,843.6


Pre-issuance hedge contracts	$	—	$	275.0
Net investment hedge contracts	$	145.5	$	—
Derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments
Foreign currency contracts	$	487.2	$	378.2
Commodity derivative contracts	$	327.1	$	322.1

Net investment hedge contracts

In April 2025, we entered into cross-currency swaps to hedge portions of our net investment in certain of our non-U.S. operations against fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. These cross-currency swaps are designated as net investment hedges and mature between April 2028 and April 2029. The changes in the fair value of these swaps are recognized as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) and reported in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in our consolidated balance sheets. The gain or loss will be subsequently reclassified into net earnings when the hedged net investment is either sold, liquidated, or substantially liquidated. We assess the effectiveness of our cross-currency swaps using the spot method. Under this method, the periodic interest settlements are recorded directly in earnings through interest expense, net. Accordingly, we recorded interest income of $0.8 million and $0.5 million during the six months and three months ended August 31, 2025, respectively.

Credit risk

We are exposed to credit-related losses if the counterparties to our derivative contracts default. This credit risk is limited to the fair value of the derivative contracts. To manage this risk, we contract only with major financial institutions that have earned investment-grade credit ratings and with whom we have standard International Swaps and Derivatives Association agreements which allow for net settlement of the derivative contracts. We have also established counterparty credit guidelines that are regularly monitored. Because of these safeguards, we believe the risk of loss from counterparty default to be immaterial.

In addition, our derivative instruments are not subject to credit rating contingencies or collateral requirements. As of August 31, 2025, the estimated fair value of derivative instruments in a net liability position due to counterparties was $0.6 million. If we were required to settle the net liability position under these derivative instruments on August 31, 2025, we would have had sufficient available liquidity on hand to satisfy this obligation.

Results of period derivative activity

The estimated fair value and location of our derivative instruments on our balance sheets are as follows (see Note 7):


Assets					Liabilities
	August 31, 2025		February 28, 2025			August 31, 2025		February 28, 2025

7. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Authoritative guidance establishes a framework for measuring fair value, including a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by requiring that the most observable inputs be used when available. The hierarchy includes three levels:

Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 inputs include data points that are observable such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical assets or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active,


Constellation Brands, Inc. Q2 FY 2026 Form 10-Q			#WORTHREACHINGFOR I 12


FINANCIAL STATEMENTS			NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS			Table of Contents

and inputs (other than quoted prices) such as volatility, interest rates, and yield curves that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; and

Level 3 inputs are unobservable data points for the asset or liability, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the asset or liability.

FAIR VALUE METHODOLOGY

The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair value of our financial instruments:

Derivative instruments

Our derivative instruments consist of foreign currency forward and option contracts, commodity swap contracts, cross-currency swap contracts, interest rate swap contracts, and Pre-issuance hedge contracts. The fair value is estimated based on quoted market prices from respective counterparties. Quotes are corroborated by using discounted cash flow calculations based upon forward interest-rate yield curves, which are obtained from independent pricing services (Level 2 fair value measurement).

Short-term borrowings

Our short-term borrowings consist of our commercial paper program and the revolving credit facility under our senior credit facility. The revolving credit facility is a variable interest rate bearing note with a fixed margin, adjustable based upon our debt rating (as defined in our senior credit facility). For these short-term borrowings, the carrying value approximates the fair value.

Long-term debt

The fair value of our fixed interest rate long-term debt is estimated by discounting cash flows using interest rates currently available for debt with similar terms and maturities (Level 2 fair value measurement). As of August 31, 2025, the carrying amount of long-term debt, including the current portion, was $10,292.4 million, compared with an estimated fair value of $9,677.9 million. As of February 28, 2025, the carrying amount of long-term debt, including the current portion, was $10,691.0 million, compared with an estimated fair value of $9,999.0 million.

The carrying amounts of certain of our financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable, approximate fair value as of August 31, 2025, and February 28, 2025, due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments.

Recurring basis measurements

The following table presents our financial assets and liabilities measured at estimated fair value on a recurring basis:

Equity method investments	Other assets	—		—		—		2.1
Total		$	—	$	—	$	564.8	$	2,252.1

Assets held for sale and related net assets

For the three months ended May 31, 2025, largely in connection with the 2025 Wine Divestitures, then-existing assets held for sale and related net assets were adjusted to their current estimated fair value of $897.7 million, less costs to sell, resulting in a $52.1 million net loss. This net loss was included in asset impairment and related expenses within our consolidated results for the six months ended August 31, 2025. Our estimated fair value of the then-existing assets held for sale was largely based on the expected proceeds from the 2025 Wine Divestitures as of May 31, 2025.

Goodwill

As of August 31, 2024, in connection with negative trends within our Wine and Spirits business primarily attributable to our U.S. wholesale market, driven by declines in both the overall wine market and in our then-owned mainstream and premium wine brands, management updated its Fiscal 2025 outlook for this reporting unit. The updated forecast indicated it was more likely than not the fair value of the Wine and Spirits reporting unit might be below its carrying value. Accordingly, we performed an interim quantitative assessment for goodwill impairment. This assessment indicated that the carrying value of the Wine and Spirits reporting unit exceeded its estimated fair value, resulting in a


Constellation Brands, Inc. Q2 FY 2026 Form 10-Q			#WORTHREACHINGFOR I 14


FINANCIAL STATEMENTS			NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS			Table of Contents

$2,250.0 million goodwill impairment. This loss from impairment was included in goodwill impairment within our consolidated results for the six months and three months ended August 31, 2024. See Notes 8 and 12 for further discussion.

When performing a quantitative assessment for impairment of goodwill, we measure the amount of impairment by calculating the amount by which the carrying value of the reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value. The estimated fair value is determined based on the discounted cash flow calculation. The most significant assumptions used in the discounted cash flow calculation were: (i) a 9% discount rate, (ii) a 1.5% expected long-term growth rate, and (iii) the annual cash flow projections.

Equity method investments

As of August 31, 2025, and August 31, 2024, we evaluated certain equity method investments, made through our corporate venture capital function within the Corporate Operations and Other segment, and determined there were other-than-temporary impairments due to business underperformance. These losses from impairment were included in income (loss) from unconsolidated investments within our consolidated results for the respective periods. The estimated fair values were based largely on the cash flows expected to be generated by the investment using unobservable data points.

8. GOODWILL

The changes in the carrying amount of goodwill are as follows:

(1)Purchase accounting allocations associated with the Sea Smoke acquisition.

(2)In connection with continued negative trends within our Wine and Spirits business primarily attributable to our U.S. wholesale market, driven by declines in both the overall wine market and in our then-owned mainstream and premium wine brands, management updated its Fiscal 2025 outlook and financial projections for this reporting unit. Based on the aforementioned factors, we performed quantitative assessments that led to goodwill impairments which resulted in the carrying value being written down to zero.

(3)Amount was based on the relative fair value of the portion of the business sold and the remaining wine and spirits portfolio. The relative fair values were determined using the transaction price and the income approach based on assumptions, including projected revenue growth, terminal growth, and discount rates and other projected financial information.

Exchangeable Shares	21.2		21.2
Other	155.5		132.9
	$	1,237.2	$	1,061.7

Equity method investments

We acquired several investments which are being accounted for under the equity method, largely in connection with prior Wine and Spirits segment acquisitions. The primary investment consists of Opus One Winery, a 50% owned joint venture arrangement.

Other investments in debt and equity securities

We have multiple investments through our corporate venture capital function in debt and equity securities. As of August 31, 2025, and February 28, 2025, we evaluated certain investments, primarily driven by business underperformance and solvency concerns, and concluded they should be written down to zero.

Exchangeable Shares

Following the April 2024 conversion of our Canopy common shares and exchange a portion of the principal amount of a promissory note issued to us by Canopy, we (i) have 26.3 million Exchangeable Shares and (ii) recognized an


Constellation Brands, Inc. Q2 FY 2026 Form 10-Q			#WORTHREACHINGFOR I 16


FINANCIAL STATEMENTS			NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS			Table of Contents

$83.3 million net gain in income (loss) from unconsolidated investments within our consolidated results for the six months ended August 31, 2024. The fair value of Exchangeable Shares on the date of the conversion and exchange was estimated using a valuation model based primarily on the following inputs: (i) Canopy’s common share price, (ii) the expected volatility of Canopy’s common shares, and (iii) the probability and timing of U.S. federal legalization of recreational cannabis. As the Exchangeable Shares are an equity security without a readily determinable fair value, we elected to account for the Exchangeable Shares under the measurement alternative method. As of February 28, 2025, we evaluated the Exchangeable Shares for impairment primarily due to the continued decline in Canopy’s common share price. We concluded that an impairment did exist, and accordingly, the Exchangeable Shares were written down to their estimated fair value of $21.2 million. The estimated fair value was determined using the same valuation model as of the date of conversion and exchange as noted above. Future impairments, if any, will also be reported in income (loss) from unconsolidated investments within our consolidated results.

2025 Credit Agreement

In April 2025, the Company, CB International, the Administrative Agent, and certain other lenders entered into the 2025 Restatement Agreement that amended and restated our then-existing credit facility (as amended and restated by the 2025 Restatement Agreement, the 2025 Credit Agreement). The principal changes effected by the 2025 Restatement Agreement were (i) refinancing the existing $2.25 billion revolving credit facility, (ii) extending its maturity to April 28, 2030, and (iii) refining certain negative covenants.

2025 Term Credit Agreement

In May 2025, the Company, the Administrative Agent, and certain other lenders entered into the 2025 Term Credit Agreement. The 2025 Term Credit Agreement provides for a six-month delayed draw $500.0 million term loan facility, available in up to two draws. The balance is due and payable two years after the initial funding date, if any, occurs. The proceeds, if drawn, from the 2025 Term Credit Agreement are intended to be used for general corporate purposes, including the repayment of debt.

12. INCOME TAXES

Overview

Our effective tax rate for the six months ended August 31, 2025, was 27.6% of tax expense compared with 30.0% of tax benefit for the six months ended August 31, 2024. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended August 31, 2025, was 37.9% of tax expense compared with 11.4% of tax benefit for the three months ended August 31, 2024.

For the six months and three months ended August 31, 2025, our effective tax rate was higher than the federal statutory rate of 21% largely due to changes in valuation allowances related to net operating losses and tax legislation updates, partially offset by (i) a net income tax benefit recognized as a result of the resolution of various tax examinations and assessments related to prior periods and (ii) the benefit of lower effective tax rates applicable to our foreign businesses.

For the six months ended August 31, 2024, our effective tax rate did not approximate the federal statutory rate of 21% largely due to (i) a net income tax benefit recognized as a result of the resolution of various tax examinations and assessments related to prior periods and (ii) the benefit of lower effective tax rates applicable for foreign businesses, partially offset by a net income tax impact resulting from the non-deductible portion of the Wine and Spirits goodwill impairment.

For the three months ended August 31, 2024, our effective tax rate did not approximate the federal statutory rate of 21% largely due to a net income tax impact resulting from the non-deductible portion of the Wine and Spirits goodwill impairment.

Tax Legislation

OB3 Act

On July 4, 2025, the OB3 Act was signed into U.S. law. The OB3 Act extends and modifies several provisions originally introduced under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, while also implementing additional changes to U.S. federal tax law. Key provisions of the OB3 Act include (i) the permanent extension of 100% bonus depreciation for qualifying assets, (ii) the elimination of the requirement to capitalize and amortize U.S.-based research and experimental expenditures, allowing for immediate expensing, (iii) changes to the limitation on the deductibility of interest expense, and (iv) modifications to the taxation of foreign earnings and other international income tax provisions. The OB3 Act contains multiple effective dates, with certain provisions taking effect beginning in calendar year 2025 and others phased in through calendar year 2027.

We have performed an initial evaluation of the impact of the OB3 Act on our consolidated financial statements, including the effects on our annual effective tax rate, deferred tax assets and liabilities, and cash flows. Based on this initial analysis and activities performed in response to the legislation, we believe there will be a negative impact on our effective tax rate for Fiscal 2026, primarily driven by the changes to the limitation on the deductibility of interest expense.

Additionally, for the six months and three months ended August 31, 2025, we recognized a valuation allowance against our deferred tax asset related to prior year interest expense limitations. We will continue to assess the implications of the OB3 Act, and our income tax provision may continue to be impacted as additional clarifications or interpretive guidance related to the OB3 Act is released.

Pillar Two

The OECD introduced a framework under Pillar Two which includes a 15% global minimum tax rate. Many jurisdictions in which we do business have started to enact laws implementing Pillar Two. We are monitoring these developments and currently do not believe these rules will have a material impact on our financial condition and/or consolidated results.

14. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER COMMON SHARE ATTRIBUTABLE TO CBI

Net income (loss) per common share attributable to CBI (hereafter referred to as “net income (loss) per common share”) – basic for Class A Stock has been computed based on the weighted average shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Net income (loss) per common share – diluted for Class A Stock reflects the weighted average shares of common stock plus the effect of dilutive securities outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method. The effect of dilutive securities includes the impact of outstanding stock-based awards. The dilutive computation does not assume conversion, exercise, or contingent issuance of securities that would have an anti-dilutive effect on the net income (loss) per common share. The computation of basic and diluted net income (loss) per common share for Class A Stock are as follows:


	For the Six Months Ended August 31,				For the Three Months Ended August 31,
	2025		2024		2025		2024

16. BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

Our internal management financial reporting consists of two business divisions: (i) Beer and (ii) Wine and Spirits and we report our operating results in three segments: (i) Beer, (ii) Wine and Spirits, and (iii) Corporate Operations and Other. In the Beer segment, our portfolio consists of high-end imported beer brands and ABAs. We have an exclusive perpetual brand license to produce our Mexican beer portfolio and to import, market, and sell such portfolio in the U.S. In the Wine and Spirits segment, we sell a portfolio comprised of exclusively higher-end wine and spirits brands. Amounts included in the Corporate Operations and Other segment consist of costs of corporate communications, corporate development, corporate finance, corporate strategy, executive management, human resources, internal audit, investor relations, IT, legal, and public affairs, as well as our investments such as those made through our corporate venture capital function. All costs included in the Corporate Operations and Other segment are general costs that are applicable to the consolidated group and are, therefore, not allocated to the other reportable segments. All costs reported within the Corporate Operations and Other segment are not included in our CODM’s evaluation of the operating income (loss) performance of the other reportable segments. Our CODM is our President and Chief Executive Officer. The business segments reflect how our operations are managed, how resources are allocated, how operating performance is evaluated by senior management, and the structure of our internal financial reporting. Long-lived tangible assets and total asset information by segment is not provided to, or reviewed by, our CODM as it is not used to make strategic decisions, allocate resources, or assess performance. Our CODM utilizes segment comparable operating income (loss) performance in deciding how to deploy capital in line with disciplined and balanced priorities. These priorities largely include investing in our people and our brands, making capital investments


Constellation Brands, Inc. Q2 FY 2026 Form 10-Q			#WORTHREACHINGFOR I 25


FINANCIAL STATEMENTS			NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS			Table of Contents

and strategic acquisitions, providing a cash dividend program, and from time-time time, repurchasing shares of our common stock. Our CODM also monitors budgeted versus actual results in assessing segment operating performance and understanding underlying business trends.

Management excludes Comparable Adjustments from its evaluation of the results of each operating segment as these Comparable Adjustments are not reflective of core operations of the segments. Segment operating performance and the incentive compensation of segment management are evaluated based on core segment operating income (loss) which does not include the impact of these Comparable Adjustments, collectively referred to as comparable operating income (loss). We evaluate segment operating performance based on comparable operating income (loss) of the respective business units.

The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described for the Company in Note 1 of our consolidated financial statements included in our 2025 Annual Report. Segment information is as follows:

17. ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE NOT YET ADOPTED

Income taxes

In December 2023, the FASB issued a standard to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures. This standard requires public companies to disclose (i) specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that meet a quantitative threshold, (ii) the amount of income taxes paid disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign taxes and disaggregated by material individual jurisdictions, and (iii) income from continuing operations before income tax expense disaggregated between domestic and foreign and income tax expense from continuing operations disaggregated by federal, state, and foreign. We are required to adopt these disclosures for our annual period ending February 28, 2026, with early adoption permitted and this standard may be applied retrospectively. We expect this standard to impact our disclosures with no material impacts to our results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition.

Disaggregation of income statement expenses

In November 2024, the FASB issued a standard requiring disaggregated information about certain income statement expense line items to be disclosed on an annual and interim basis. We are required to adopt these disclosures for our annual period ending February 29, 2028, with early adoption permitted and this standard may be applied retrospectively. We expect this standard to impact our disclosures with no material impacts to our results of operations, cash flows, or financial condition.
