Is a Mexican public company founded in 1758 that produces, bottles, trades and distributes alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages in Mexico, United States and internationally. Becle is currently the global leader in tequila in terms of volume share. Investment summary Quick Snapshot We issue a HOLD recommendation with a 2019E Price Target of 30.7, which represents a 4.5% upside to its current price ($29.40 as of October Stock Exchange BMV (Mexico) 15th, 2018). Our valuation is based on two main models: a DCF and a Ticker CUERVO* MM relative valuation with a 70/30 weight respectively. Our recommendation is Industry Beverages (Distillers and Vintners) mainly determined by three key drivers: 1) Becle seems to be fairly priced Recommendation HOLD by the market, which is reinforced by our valuation models. 2) Despite Target Price (MXN) 30.7 (4.5%) high growth and innovation opportunities in the Beverages Industry, Becle Enterprise Value (M) 89,767.35 has not been able to take full advantage of such market conditions. 3) A Beta 0.56 shift towards premiumization promises a higher net margin, however, its Average Daily Volume 371,876 success is yet to be seen taking into consideration potential adverse conditions. Our valuation yields a HOLD recommendation, in line with current market expectations. Becle has been a publicly traded company since February 2017 when its IPO took place. Since then, the stock has seen some volatile sessions and is currently trading 13.5% below its IPO price, which could be indicative that the market is still uncertain about Becle. This might be a part of a learning process from the market about the company. Furthemore, recent news regarding C-level management departures as well as some quarters in which it has missed estimates has raised uncertainty on Becle’s ability to continue growing and gaining market share in the industry. Figure 1 - CUERVO vs. MEXBOL Estimates and Historical Data - Summary Attractive industry, but is it an already lost opportunity for Becle? The spirits beverage industry has been growing in both, sales value and sales volume for the last five years. Tequila & Irish whiskey have been the fastest growing categories within the industry in the U.S, with a CAGR of 6% and 13.5% respectively (according to IWSR figures). However, it appears as if the company has not taken advantage of such benefits. During FY2017 Becle reported a 4.9% volume decline in the United States and Canada segment; a trend that hasn’t changed since then as it reported a decline of -16.9% and -7.0% in 1Q18 and 2Q18 respectively. On the good side, Becle follows a mixed strategy of organic and inorganic growth, which we consider positive in an industry of rapid changing trends and new products constantly entering the market and which could significantly change the trend if done correctly. Figure 2- Football Field, Estimates A shift towards ‘premiumization’ promises a higher margin business. Becle’s management has repeatedly announced its intention to shift a strategy of volume over value around, mainly through the premiumization of its portfolio (Figure 3). Recent acquisitions like the Irish Whisky Bushmills and the Canadian Whiskey Pendleton are strong indicators that the company is in fact moving to a higher margin business. However, it appears as if the market has already priced in this shift, which could be bad news in case the strategy fails or takes longer to materialize. Figure 3- Premiumization Strategy Source: Bloomberg 2 Current Highlights Becle enters into the premium whisky segment in the US and other key markets. Becle enters into the premium whisky segment in the US and other key markets. On February, 2018 Becle completed the acquisition of Pendleton Whisky -one of the leading premium whisky companies in the United States- assets for a total of US $205 million. This purchase included Pendleton Midnight, Pendleton 1910 and Pendleton Directors' Reserve. In considering this strategy and assessing its possible successfulness, Mexican government transition turns out to be critical. New policies adopted by the president elect, may have an important negative impact on luxury and premium segments. Proximo Spirits CEO leaves the company, leaving behind many question marks. Proximo Spirits CEO leaves the company, raisging many question marks. On June, 2018 Proximo Spirits’ (Becle’s subsidiary in the United States) former CEO, Mark Teasdale, departed from the firm to join Bigger & Leith, a New York-based spirits. Becle remains in search for a new CEO, position that has been temporarily taken by Michael Cheek (current member of Becle’s Board of Directors). Such event, together with the departure of the former CFO Daniel Elguea (June 2018 as well), raised a lot of questions regarding Becle’s top management.

  • Tequila Margaritas
    TEQUILA Tequila is made by distilling the fermented juice of agave plants. It is descended from pulque, a favorite alcoholic drink of Aztecs and other Indian tribes. Agave (taken from the Greek, meaning magnificent), a pre-historic plant, is a spicy leafed member of the LILY family. It is not a cactus. By Mexican law, tequila is produced from blue agave only, one of Mexico’s hundreds of varieties of agave. Mezcal, on the other hand, can be made from other species of agave. Tequila is a specific type of mezcal. All tequila is mezcal, but not all mezcal is tequila. Tequila is produced in specifically designated regions of Mexico, most notably Jalisco. The more elaborate bottled tequila sometime contains a “worm”, a caterpillar like bug that bores into the plant. The survival of its body, intact, is said to be a sign of the spirit’s high alcohol content and the consumption of the worm and enhancement of manliness. Mixto - Colorless tequilas that are matured for only a few weeks. Others may be colored and softened on the palate, with a caramel or almond essence. Silver or Blanco - Colorless tequilas that are matured for only a few weeks. Reposado - Matured in oak casks, often from Kentucky bourbon distillers, up to 6 months. Añejo - Matured in oak casks, often from Kentucky bourbon distillers, for at least a year. Extra Añejo - Matured in oak casks, often from Kentucky bourbon distillers, for at least 3 years and occasionally 8-10 years.

  • Jose Cuervo®
    Historia de Jose Cuervo® José Antonio de Cuervo y sus hijos José María Guadalupe y José Prudencio, jamás imaginaron que los centenares de agaves que cultivaron en el siglo XVIII iban a multiplicarse por millones con el paso del tiempo. Tampoco vislumbraron que ellos serían los fundadores de una dinastía tequilera que iba a convertirse en una de las empresas más fuertes, hoy la más antigua del ramo. Es posible que Casa Cuervo® haya nacido antes de 1795 y sea, tal vez, una de las empresas más antiguas del país. No sabemos con certeza si José Antonio de Cuervo que en 1758 había obtenido algunas tierras en lo que hoy es Tequila, Jalisco para sembrar diferentes cultivos formó parte de aquellos contribuyentes que cosechaban agaves desde principios del siglo XVIII. José Prudencio de Cuervo, hijo de José Antonio, afianzó su relación con Tequila al colaborar entre 1771 y 1775 en la construcción de la parroquia del pueblo. Hacia 1781 en plena prohibición de Carlos III para la producción y comercio de más de 75 bebidas, por considerar que embrutecían el alma y la conducta de los indios, adquirió los potreros de la Hacienda de Abajo, donde más tarde se instalaría la Taberna de Cuervo. En 1795, su hermano José María Guadalupe Cuervo recibió de Carlos IV, cuando ya había sido anulada la prohibición, la primera licencia para producir vino mezcal, antecedente de nuestro actual Tequila. Con esto, comenzó de manera formal la historia de la más antigua compañía tequilera. Más tarde, al morir José Guadalupe, dejó todas sus propiedades a sus hijos Don José Ignacio Faustino y Doña María Magdalena de Cuervo.
