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 2026 Annual Report. Results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of annual results.
2. 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 was executed within the year ended February 28, 2026. The 2025 Restructuring Initiative is estimated to result in $130 million of cumulative pre-tax costs once all phases are fully implemented. These costs are expected to be comprised of (i) employee termination costs (50%) and (ii) consulting services as well as other costs, which primarily include contract termination costs (50%).
We recognized pre-tax restructuring costs within selling, general, and administrative expenses in our consolidated results related to the 2025 Restructuring Initiative as follows:

4. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
Overview
Our risk management and derivative accounting policies are presented in Notes 1 and 7 of our consolidated financial statements included in our 2026 Annual Report and have not changed significantly for the three months ended May 31, 2026.
The aggregate notional value of outstanding derivative instruments is as follows:

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
| Constellation Brands, Inc. Q1 FY 2027 Form 10-Q | #WORTHREACHINGFOR I 7 |
| FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS | Table of Contents |
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 $0.6 million and $0.3 million during the three months ended May 31, 2026, and May 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 May 31, 2026, there were no derivative instruments in a net liability position due to counterparties.
Results of period derivative activity
The estimated fair value and location of our derivative instruments on our balance sheets are as follows (see Note 5):

5. 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. Q1 FY 2027 Form 10-Q | #WORTHREACHINGFOR I 9 |
| 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 May 31, 2026, the carrying amount of long-term debt, including the current portion, was $10,197.5 million, compared with an estimated fair value of $9,588.0 million. As of February 28, 2026, the carrying amount of long-term debt, including the current portion, was $10,296.5 million, compared with an estimated fair value of $9,858.2 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 May 31, 2026, and February 28, 2026, due to the relatively short maturity of these instruments.

Assets held for sale and related net assets
For the three months ended May 31, 2026, in connection with the New Zealand Wine Divestitures, net assets with a $36.7 million carrying value were adjusted to their estimated fair value of $18.4 million, less costs to sell, resulting in an $18.3 million net loss. This net loss was included in asset impairment and related expenses within our consolidated results for the three months ended May 31, 2026. Our estimated fair value was based on the expected proceeds from this transaction as of May 31, 2026. For additional information, refer to Note 6.
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 three months ended May 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.

The carrying amount of our Wine and Spirits segment goodwill was zero as of May 31, 2026, February 28, 2026, and February 28, 2025, respectively.
ACQUISITION
HOPWTR
In April 2026, we purchased the remaining ownership interest in HOPWTR, a premium non-alcoholic brand crafted with hops, adaptogens, and nootropics. HOPWTR has been a part of our corporate ventures portfolio since 2021. This transaction also included the acquisition of goodwill and trademarks. The results of operations of HOPWTR are reported in the Beer 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. 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.
Assets held for sale
In May 2026, we entered into a definitive agreement to divest eight small-scale domestic-market New Zealand mainstream wine brands and associated inventory, equipment, a winery, and vineyards which were reclassified to net assets held for sale as of May 31, 2026. The carrying value of these net assets is largely included with prepaid expenses and other on our consolidated balance sheet. The New Zealand Wine Divestitures transaction was completed in June 2026, and the net cash proceeds were used for general corporate purposes.

The financial covenants are limited to a minimum interest coverage ratio and a maximum net leverage ratio.
Commercial paper program
We have a commercial paper program which provides for the issuance of up to an aggregate principal amount of $2.25 billion of commercial paper. Our commercial paper program is backed by unused commitments under our revolving credit facility under our 2025 Credit Agreement.

Senior notes
In May 2026, we issued $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of 4.85% senior notes due May 2031. Proceeds from this offering, net of discount and debt issuance costs, were $496.8 million. Interest on the 4.85% May 2026 Senior Notes is payable semiannually on May 6 and November 6 of each year, beginning November 6, 2026. The 4.85% May 2026 Senior Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part, at our option at any time prior to April 6, 2031, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the outstanding principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest and a make-whole payment based on the present value of the future payments at the adjusted treasury rate, as defined in the applicable indenture, plus 15 basis points. On or after April 6, 2031, we may redeem the 4.85% May 2026 Senior Notes, in whole or in part, at our option at any time at a redemption price equal to 100% of the outstanding principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The 4.85% May 2026 Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations which rank equally in right of payment to all of our existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness.
On May 18, 2026, we redeemed $600.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.70% December 2016 Senior Notes prior to maturity using proceeds from the 4.85% May 2026 Senior Notes and commercial paper borrowings at a redemption price equal to 100% of the outstanding principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest.

9. INCOME TAXES
Overview
Our effective tax rate for the three months ended May 31, 2026, and May 31, 2025, was 11.6% and 14.3%, respectively.
For the three months ended May 31, 2026, our effective tax rate was lower than the federal statutory rate of 21% largely due to the benefit of lower effective tax rates applicable to our foreign businesses, partially offset by (i) certain tax legislation updates, (ii) adjustments to tax attributes, and (iii) changes to valuation allowances.
For the three months ended May 31, 2025, our effective tax rate was lower than the federal statutory rate of 21% largely due to (i) the benefit of lower effective tax rates applicable to our foreign businesses and (ii) a net income tax benefit recognized as a result of the resolution of various tax examinations and assessments related to prior periods.
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 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 analysis and activities performed in response to the legislation, there will be a negative impact on our effective tax rate for Fiscal 2027, primarily driven by modifications to the taxation of foreign earnings and other international income tax provisions.
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.

In April 2025, our Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $4.0 billion of our publicly traded common stock under the 2025 Authorization, which expires in February 2028. Shares repurchased under this authorization become treasury shares. For the three months ended May 31, 2026, we repurchased 1,465,295 shares of Class A Stock pursuant to the 2025 Authorization through open market transactions at an aggregate cost of $223.8 million. Subsequent to May 31, 2026, we repurchased 714,387 shares of Class A Stock pursuant to the 2025 Authorization at an aggregate cost of $100.0 million through open market transactions made pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan. As of June 26, 2026, $2,752.1 million remains available for future share repurchases, excluding the impact of Federal excise tax owed pursuant to the IRA.
11. 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-

13. 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 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 and strategic acquisitions, providing a cash dividend program, and from time-to-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.

14. ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE NOT YET ADOPTED
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.
