COMPETITION: DIAGE0

Diageo: U.S. Spirits business driven by flavored Vodkas “[The U.S.] is showing very good signs of

improvement. 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

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

Page 38: Fuad Fadel Jim Fish Kevin Kaznica Matthew Krajna.

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

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%

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

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 restatedPrice: 423.62 on 1/12/12

WINE IMPORT DATA 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

EPS

Page 46: Fuad Fadel Jim Fish Kevin Kaznica Matthew Krajna.

WINE

STZ Vincor, Robert Mondavi, Ravenswood, Arbor Mist, and Ruffino Approximately 90% of sales Lags the industry growth rate Sold only 12.7% of the wine cases during 2010 Negative EPS between 2008-2010 Negative organic growth in 2011 Extremely low exposure to emerging markets, leading to lack of revenue growth

Industry: Smallest segment in the alcoholic beverage industry compared to beer and spirits 3% CAGR on average Mature and slow growth industry Large conglomerates, such as STZ Competitors are E & J Gallo, The Wine Group, Vina Concha y Toro, and Treasury Wine Estates 4-6% CAGR prior to the recession On-premise v. off-premise sales

Larger growth in off-premise sales than on-premise (use graph showing this off Bloomberg) Value v. Premium Wine Sales

Trend towards value brands continues Remains to be seen if producers can successfully persuade consumers to abandon value brands for premium

Franzia Winetaps (The Wine Group), a value wine, has the largest market share of 7.9% High growth seen in developing markets, but mainly China where CAGRs are in the mid-teens

Page 47: Fuad Fadel Jim Fish Kevin Kaznica Matthew Krajna.

WINE CRUSH DATA

California’s 2011 wine grape crush, from all varieties, totaled 3,342,689 tons, down 7 percent from 2010

  varieties accounted for the largest share of all grapes crushed, at

1,917,132 tons, down 7 percent from 2010. The 2011 white wine varieties crush totaled 1,425,557 tons, down 7 percent from 2010.

  On the price side, record highs were set for both red and white wine

grapes   average price for the 2011 crop of red wine grapes was $702.70, up

12 percent from 2010, while the average price for white wine grapes came in at $541.11, up 8 percent from last year. The 2011 average price of all varieties reached a record high of $588.96, up 8 percent from 2010 and 3 percent above the previous record high set in 2009.

SPIRITS

STZ SVEDKA, Black Velvet, & Paul Mason Brandy

Since acquisition, Svedka is quadrupled in case sizes Approximately 10% of sales Miniscule market share with many global competitors Lacks brand recognition that competitors have Growing at double-digit rate

Driven mainly by SVEDKA

Industry: 2nd largest market segment of alcoholic beverage industry Led by vodka and whiskey

Smirnoff, Absolut, Grey Goose, & Skyy Diageo, Brown-Foreman, & Beam Global & Spirits

Industry: Largest market share compared to wine and spirits Dominated by major companies

Anheuser-Busch InBev, Miller Coors, Crown Imports, Growing trend towards Imports and Craft Brews in the US

Double digit growth rate compared to stagnant growth for whole industry 16.4% volume growth compared to -2%; Dollar growth, craft up 17.5% compared to .3% for the industry

Democratic corporate governance strongly associated with higher relative returns Most democratic: 3.8 abnormal Most dictatorial: -5%

Gompers, Ishi, Metrick

Firm value increases with the cash-flow rights of the largest shareholder, but decreases when voting rights exceed cash-flow rights

ADDITIONAL SCENARIOS

Key Assumptions: Scenario 4 – “10yr No Real Growth & JV Termination”: Base Case, but with termination of JV. AB InBev

would increase their stake in Grupo Modelo, triggering a cash payment of 4x EBIT to Constellation. In 2017, earnings from the Crown Imports JV will only incorporate 10 months due to the timing of the termination. Equity earnings going forward will be significantly impacted and no longer material. Constellation would receive a cash payment, estimated at $2 billion, upon notice being granted for FY2014. The scenario shows the effect of the joint-venture termination by Grupo Modelo.

Scenario X – “10yr No Real Growth & JV Termination”: Base Case, but with termination of JV. AB InBev would increase their stake in Grupo Modelo, triggering a cash payment of 4x EBIT to Constellation. In 2017, earnings from the Crown Imports JV will only incorporate 10 months due to the timing of the termination. Equity earnings going forward will be significantly impacted and no longer material. Constellation would receive no cash payment. The scenario shows the effect of the joint-venture termination by Grupo Modelo.

Stress Tested Scenario 3 – “Decreasing SG&A significantly”: Same as Scenario 3, but with SG&A decreasing as a perfect of sales from 20.5% to 15%. We feel this significant of an efficiency gain would be significant, but drastic, and unlikely.

5yr Crown Cash Now, Best Case -- Modeled Scenario 3 with a $2 billion cash payment in year 2014. 5yr Crown Cash Later, Best Case -- Modeled Scenario 3 with cash payment of $300 million approximating

estimated 50% of BV of the joint venture, upon termination this payment would be received by Constellation. 10yr Model with JV Continuing -- Base case, but assuming 10yr model 5yr Crown Cash Now, Base Case -- Modeled Scenario 1 with a $2 billion cash payment in year 2014. 5yr Crown Cash Later, Base Case -- Modeled Scenario 1 with cash payment of $300 million approximating

estimated 50% of BV of the joint venture, upon termination this payment would be received by Constellation.

SMID PREMIUM

U.S. mid-caps have historically provided only minor diversification benefits, having a correlation to large caps of more than 0.94 over the past 10 years. Mid-caps have behaved similarly to U.S. small-cap equities, exhibiting a correlation of 0.98. The volatility of return on mid-cap stocks as measured by standard deviation was 18.8%, more than 3 percentage points greater than that of large caps. One way to interpret this number is to assume a normal distribution of returns. If you expect mid-caps to earn an average return of 6% in any given year, there is at least a 2% chance that the return will be less than 31.6% (two standard deviations less than the average). Viewed in this light, the 36% drop in 2008 should be viewed as unlikely but not impossible.

WINE IMPORT DATA

Imports grew 3.9 percent to 109.8 million cases. - account for 32 percent of the volume of wine sold in the U.S.

As the USD appreciates in value against the Euro and Aussie Dollar, imported value wines become cheaper to import, thus flooding the market with value brands

This is a negative for Constellation, as the U.S. consumer is still trending towards value brands

CROWN JV POTENTIAL OUTCOMES

1. Modelo gives notice by 2013 that the JV will NOT renew after 2016, and Modelo will import their brands into the U.S.

2. Modelo does NOT renew JV, chooses different party (other than STZ) as importer

3. Modelo renews the JV for another 10 years

BASE CASE SCENARIO

Scenario 1 – “5yr Base Case”: CWNA grown at

2.25%/year Spirits growing

at 10%/year driven by SVEDKA sales

Equity earnings, driven by Crown Imports, grew 8%/year

Page 73: Fuad Fadel Jim Fish Kevin Kaznica Matthew Krajna.

WORST CASE SCENARIO

Scenario 2 – “5yr Worst Case”: CWNA, Spirits, and

Crown Imports sales grow at an inflation rate of 2%.

Based on the fact our “Worst Case” scenario was a SELL rating, we did not do further sensitivity testing of lesser growth rates for wine, spirits, or Crown segments.

Page 74: Fuad Fadel Jim Fish Kevin Kaznica Matthew Krajna.

BEST CASE SCENARIO

Scenario 3 – “5yr Best Case”: CWNA sales growing

at 5% YoY, which outpaces the industry average

Spirit Sales driven by SVEDKA growth at 20%

Equity earnings from Crown grow at 10% YoY.
