Based on: Historical Cycle
The premium spirits segment faces industry-wide headwinds from subdued consumer spending and trade destocking. All four other premium spirits groups on Cassandra.news are predicted to post organic revenue declines: Rémy Cointreau, Diageo, Pernod Ricard and Brown-Forman. Campari (Aperol, Campari, Wild Turkey, Grand Marnier) posted only +1.2% organic growth in FY2025, weighed down by North American weakness and US aperitivo inventory drawdown. Bloomberg sector consensus for H1 2026 projects approximately -3% to -5% organic decline. Americas segment (~40% of group revenues) under pressure from growing RTD and Aperol Spritz competitors.
Data basis for this prediction
- Campari FY2025 organisches Wachstum: +1,2 % (Campari-Pressemitteilung, Feb. 2026)
- Bloomberg Spirits-Sektor H1 2026 Konsens: –3 % bis –5 % organisch (aggregiert, Sep. 2026)
- Branchenvergleich: Rémy, Diageo, Pernod, Brown-Forman alle mit Rückgang erwartet (Cassandra.news)
- Campari Americas-Segment: Marktanteilsverlust US Aperitivo (Nielsen Q2 2026)
Verdict: Miss
Die Vorhersage traf nicht ein. Campari Group meldete am 29. Juli 2026 für H1 2026 (Januar–Juni 2026) ein organisches Nettoumsatzwachstum von +2,7 % (Q1: +2,9 %, Q2: +2,5 %). Nettoumsatz lag bei €1,512 Mrd. Das EBIT-adjusted wuchs sogar organisch um +8,5 %. Campari hob daraufhin den Jahresausblick auf ca. +3 % organisches Wachstum an. Die Vorhersage eines Rückgangs scheiterte vor allem daran: (1) Das Aperitif-Portfolio (Aperol, Campari-Marke) wuchs +4,0 % organisch und machte 49 % des Umsatzes aus – das erwartete Trade-Destocking im Aperitivo-Segment materialisierte sich nicht; (2) der US-Markt erholte sich mit +1,5 % statt weiter zu fallen; (3) die Entwicklungsmärkte lieferten +9,1 % organisches Wachstum.

Rémy Cointreau published its H1 FY2026/27 result on October 27, 2026: organic growth of +2.9 percent YoY for April–September 2026 — 90 basis points above this forecast's threshold. The company confirmed its FY2026/27 guidance ('gradual return to organic growth'). Q2 FY2026/27 (Jul–Sep): Cognac up 12 percent YoY. FY2025/26 full year: +0.2 percent organic ('in line with targets', Rémy IR, June 3, 2026). Achieving above 2.0 percent for the full year only requires H2 (Oct 2026–Mar 2027) to avoid a complete collapse — the 90-basis-point H1 buffer provides substantial safety margin. Risks: US demand weakness, Chinese Cognac tariffs, macro slowdown. Supporting: Rémy Martin premiumization strategy, confirmed guidance, strong Q2 momentum.

After the record of 322 million bottles (2021), Champagne shipments are in structural decline: ~319 million in 2022, ~299 million in 2023 (CIVC). Continued luxury weakness in China (export volume –27% YoY H1 2026), rising input costs, and saturated key markets (USA, France, UK) point to further contraction. At –5 to –7% p.a. decline (2022–2025 trend), 2026 volume would be approximately 262–271 million bottles — well below the 280 million threshold. No prediction market signal available. Confirmed via CIVC annual report or Reuters by January 31, 2027.
