Constellation reaffirmed its fiscal 2026 outlook, projecting overall earnings per share between $11.30 and $11.60. The company continued to expect beer net sales to decline 2–4% and beer operating income to decrease 7–9%.

McCormick & Company, Incorporated (NYSE: MKC) reported third-quarter results that beat analyst expectations, marking its fifth consecutive quarter of volume-driven growth despite inflationary pressures and higher input costs.

The spice and flavoring producer posted adjusted earnings per share of $0.85 for the quarter ended August 31, ahead of analyst estimates of $0.82.

HSBC initiated coverage on Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOGL) with a Buy rating and a price target of $285.00, citing confidence in the company’s full-stack artificial intelligence strategy and diversified business model.

The firm said Alphabet’s AI ecosystem—anchored by its Gemini model, custom chip development, and extensive data from Search, YouTube, and other platforms—positioned it strongly within the cloud and advertising sectors. HSBC highlighted Google DeepMind as a key advantage underpinning its innovation.

Analysts said Google Search and Google Cloud remained the company’s two most valuable businesses. They expected AI Overviews and browser-based Gemini integrations to help maintain Google’s roughly 90% share in the traditional search market, even as ChatGPT led the in-app AI model segment.

For Google Cloud, HSBC projected that generative AI adoption would drive new customer acquisitions and reinforce cloud lock-in effects, while YouTube was expected to benefit from continued growth in paid subscriptions and connected TV advertising.

The firm valued Alphabet using a sum-of-the-parts approach and forecast about 16% upside potential, noting that the stock’s 22.6x FY26 GAAP P/E multiple remained justified by its robust cloud and YouTube growth prospects.

Needham downgraded TrueCar Inc. (NASDAQ: TRUE) from Buy to Hold, sending shares down more than 14% intra-day on Tuesday.

Analysts cited intensifying competition from used-vehicle lead generation companies that were increasingly targeting the new-vehicle market. They also noted that TrueCar’s reliance on new vehicle leads, which was a headwind during the supply shortages of 2021 and 2022, had not yet turned into a sustained advantage.

Needham added that the stock appeared fairly valued, trading at a modest premium to industry peers despite lingering uncertainty around its growth prospects.
