Based on: Historical Cycle
Starbucks is in a robust turnaround under CEO Brian Niccol: Q3 FY2026 beat the Non-GAAP EPS consensus by 29% ($0.85 vs. ~$0.66 expected) with four consecutive quarters of positive comparable store sales growth (+7.9% in Q3). Cost savings of >$2B implemented ('Back to Starbucks' strategy). Q4 consensus of $0.72 accounts for seasonal slowdown but should again be exceeded given operational momentum — CNBC raised its price target after Q2 beat-and-raise report.

Verdict: Hit
Starbucks meldete am 29. Oktober 2026 nach Börsenschluss einen Non-GAAP-EPS von 0,80 USD für Q4 FY2026 – ein klarer Beat gegenüber dem Konsens von 0,72 USD (+11,1%). Globales comparable-sales-Wachstum betrug +7,2% (fünftes Quartal in Folge positiv). Quellen: SEC 8-K Earnings Release (s203.q4cdn.com/326826266/files/content_files/4Q26-Earnings-Release-_2026-10-29_-FINAL.pdf), CNBC (cnbc.com/2026/10/29/starbucks-sbux-q4-2026-earnings.html), MarketBeat (marketbeat.com/earnings/reports/2026-10-29-starbucks-co-stock/). Einziger Wermutstropfen: Umsatz (9,14 Mrd. USD) verfehlte den Konsens von 9,23 Mrd. USD leicht, was an der China-Devestition lag – der EPS-Kern der Vorhersage trat jedoch ein.

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.
