Shares of Molson Coors rose 1.3% on Aug. 5 after the company reported Q2 2025 adjusted EPS of $2.05, beating analyst expectations. Net sales came in at $3.2 billion, down 1.6% year-over-year but above the estimate, driven by pricing growth and favorable timing of U.S. shipments. Investors reacted positively to the earnings and revenue beat despite the company lowering its annual profit forecast due to higher aluminum tariffs, softer U.S. market share, and macroeconomic pressures.
For the fiscal year ending in December 2025, analysts expect TAP’s adjusted EPS to decline 7.9% year-over-year to $5.49. The company’s earnings surprise history is mixed. It beat the consensus estimates in three of the last four quarters while missing on another occasion.
Among the 21 analysts covering the stock, the consensus rating is a “Moderate Buy.” That’s based on five “Strong Buy” ratings, one “Moderate Buy,” and 15 “Holds.”www.barchart.com
On Aug. 8, TD Cowen cut Molson Coors’ price target to $47, maintaining a “Hold" rating.
As of writing, the stock is trading below the mean price target of $54.24. The Street-high price target of $72 implies a potential upside of nearly 41% from the current price.
