It’s not a snapback…Now the U.S. is not going to offer us the same growth that Brazil can.” • Key takeaway: U.S. does not offer the growth that Emerging Markets offer • Constellation Brands LACKS EM exposure • Thus stuck with 90% of sales from a mature U.S. market • Source: WSJ, March 26, 2012 Competition: Diage0

  37. Sum of Parts • Target Price of $17 with Conservative Scenario, using build-up and mid-level discount rates

  38. Sum of Parts • Wine value comes from “Best Case” scenario • PV of wine sales only • SVEDKA purchase price $384 million, adjusted for inflation, and multiplied by 4x to represent case vol growth • Crown valued as the PV of forecasted equity payments

  39. Sum of Parts • Crown value based on PV of future equity earnings • Includes options that will be exercised • Based on build-up method, discount rate of 13.97%

  40. Sum of Parts • Crown value based on PV of future equity earnings • Includes options that will be exercised • Based on build-up method, discount rate of 13.97% • Conclusion: Using both the build-up and mid-level discount rates, an average target price of $17 can be obtained, AFFIRMING SELL RECOMMENDATION

  41. Additional risk Build-up premiums (1-2% per item)

  42. PV of Growth Opportunities • PVGO: The present value of growth opportunities is a tool to extract the market’s expectations on future growth potential for Constellation. • Using the CAPM we determined a cost of equity of 10.41% for Constellation. • PVGO for Constellation under current market conditions is 16.97%. • Peer median of 46.52% • Market does not feel that Constellation has much growth potential. • Given that Constellation has lagged the wine industry growth rate of 3%, the PVGO is justified, especially compared to its peers. Key assumptions: EPS: 1.79 TTM restated Price: 423.62 on 1/12/12

  43. Imported wines ≈ 1/3 U.S. wine sales • USD appreciating against the Euro and Aussie Dollar • Floods market with competitively-priced alternatives • This is a negative for Constellation, as the U.S. consumer is still trending towards value brands Wine Import Data
