Wall Street Analyst: Bud Light's Loss of 15-20% of Its Sales is <i>Permanent</i>

Wall Street Analyst: Bud Light's Loss of 15-20% of Its Sales is Permanent

Bud Light sales hit a fresh new low last week:

Data from Bump Williams Consulting and NielsenIQ show that sales for Bud Light are down 28.5 percent year-over-year for the week ending June 17, according to the New York Post. That's a decline of about 2 percentage points from the week ending June 10, when sales dropped 26.8 percent, Bump Williams's data show.
Anheuser-Busch's other brands, including Budweiser and Michelob Ultra, have also suffered year-over-year losses. Budweiser's sales are down 12.3 percent, Busch Light is down 8.1 percent, and Michelob Ultra is down 4 percent, according to Bump Williams and Nielsen IQ.
At the same time, competitors like Yuengling Lager went up 25.1 percent, the data show. Coors Light saw a 21.8 percent increase, and Miller Lite went up 16 percent.
And for the month of May, Constellation Brands-owned Modelo Especial was the number one-selling brand in the United States, outpacing Bud Light, which fell to number two, industry data show.
Bump Williams, chief of the eponymous consulting company, told the New York Post on June 21, "This was a tough week for Bud Light and other beer brands" that are owned by Anheuser-Busch, including Budweiser. Sales of Budweiser were down by 10 percent, Natural Light was down by 2.3 percent, and Michelob Ultra was down by 2.4 percent.

Bud Light claims that "misinformation" is the reason for their decline, but video shows them proudly supporting the Toronto Shame March, where pedophile-adjacent
naked men paraded their penises in front of children.

And check out what appeared on Bud Light's stage there -- or don't. CONTENT WARNING for cosmic revulsion.

Has Bud Light lost the taint of its old "fratty" humor yet, Alissa?

The forecasts call for the current losses to be permanent. And not only have they lost 15-20% of their sales volume permanently, but they'll go back to losing market share bit-by-bit before they came up with the brilliant idea of bringing in Dylan Mulvaney as a transfluencer.

The article seems to spin for Anheuser-Busch, saying that people should buy their stock because it's lost as much as it's going to lose. But in offering that advice, the analyst admits that A-B's sales losses are permanent.

It's time to buy Bud Light's stock even if Americans aren't back to buying Bud Light just yet, according to Deutsche Bank analyst Mitch Collett.
Collett upgraded Bud Light's parent company, Anheuser-Busch InBev (BUD), from Hold to Buy and raised his price target from $52 to $60, noting that Bud Light is "at the end of the tunnel" of its controversy.
"We believe recent underperformance implies a permanent reduction in ABI's US business," Collett wrote. "Our proprietary survey data suggests these headwinds are likely to fade even if we do not expect the US business ever to fully recover from its current challenges."

I can't see any of this as good news:

In the week ending June 10, Bud Light sales declined 26.8% compared to the same period a year prior, marking the ninth straight week of declines greater than 20%, according to Nielsen. Analysis from Evercore ISI indicates that volume declines are steadying in a range of 26-28%, though no recovery is in sight yet.
ABInBev's stock has stumbled amid the declining sales reports and Modelo surpassing Bud Light as the top-selling beer in America. Shares are down roughly 13% since the beginning of April when the Mulvaney ad campaign was launched.

Another analyst agrees that Tranheuser's loss of sales is permanent.

...
But some Wall Street analysts don't see good times ahead for the Bud Light brand itself. Deutsche Bank sees some of Bud Light's declines as a "permanent reduction" in AbInBev's US business. Evercore ISI analyst Robert Ottenstein agrees.
"Bud Light will permanently lose about 15-20% of its volume, after which declines will resume at about the average rate of the prior 10 years," Ottenstein wrote in a note on Wednesday. "Budweiser will also see a similar pattern, with consumers lost in 2022 not coming back."

Instead of apologizing to its customers or firing the parties responsible, Bud Light has decided to bring back a "beloved" icon.

No, not the Wazzup guys. Not the Budweiser frogs. Not even Spuds MacKenzie.

No, remember, the Sorority Sad-Sack Alissa Heinerscheid branded Bud Light has having previously been known for "fratty" "bad humor." So they can't bring back those "fratty" "bad humor" icons. Every headline would say, Bud Light brings back advertising campaign its VP of advertising called "fratty" and "bad humor."

Well not every headline would say that -- but the honest ones would.

So they're bringing back an "icon" that I have never heard of, dating from all the back
to 2018. Yes, the "Bud Knight" is back.

Can you feel the excitement?!?!

Bud Light reintroduces the Bud Knight

Hero from advertising past arrives on social as brand attempts to regain momentum following boycott

Bud Light has recruited a hero of its past, the Bud Knight, to reinforce its message on social media.
Is he a white knight?
Bud Light on Monday reawakened a hero from its advertising past when the "Bud Knight" tweeted for the first time since February 2021. The character was established in 2018 by Bud Light's then-agency Wieden+Kennedy as part of the brand's "Dilly Dilly" universe.
On Monday, the account wrote "Yeah, I'm thinking I'm back," which was subsequently quote-tweeted by Bud Light's Twitter account, saying "Guess who's back?"
...
Todd Allen, VP of marketing for Bud Light, confirmed the Bud Knight was back.
"Since inception, the Bud Knight has shown up to remind fans that the best moments are made better when celebrated with a Bud Light," Allen said in a statement. "The Bud Knight is an iconic character, and he's coming back to delight fans on social media, reinforcing our message that Bud Light is easy to drink, easy to enjoy this summer."

So iconic I never heard of him. Then again, I gave up football when it got too woke so I just haven't been watching television when they're most likely to run beer ads.

Is the armor tuck friendly?

Meanwhile, "dozens" of Starbucks locations were picketed by leftwing gay extremists who need constant validation by everyone at all moments of the day.

Dozens of Starbucks U.S. locations were picketed on Sunday over allegations by the baristas' union that managers at several stores removed Pride flags and decor. On Friday, the union announced the strike, which is purported to be joined by 3,000 workers at over 150 Starbucks over the next week, making it the largest national strike against Starbucks ever staged.
Near the route of the city's Pride parade, workers picketed outside a lower Manhattan, New York store on Sunday, chanting, "New York is a union town! On Strike! Shut it down!" Several customers refused to cross the picket line to patronize the establishment. Maggie McKeon, a would-be customer heading into the location, decided to turn around after hearing about the strike, saying: "If people are going to be affected by this, then I'm with them, not the company."

Starbucks denies these allegations -- Allegations of Sanity, if you ask me -- but there are a lot of claims from individual stores that owners have instructed workers to take down all the homosexual festoonery.

This is supposedly video of Starbucks employees taking down "rainbow" decorations:

Flashback:

From September 19, 2022: I think this young up-and-comer has a real bright future ahead of her at Bud Light.

Bud Light's new leader Alissa Heinerscheid on how she'll approach the job
The VP of marketing is one of Ad Age's 2022 40 Under 40 honorees
In June, Alissa Heinerscheid became the first woman to lead Bud Light in the brand's 40-year history. And she has wasted no time getting to work. Heinerscheid, 38, oversaw a creative agency review that led to the late August hiring of Anomaly, which is taking over from Wieden+Kennedy, signaling big marketing changes ahead for the nation's largest beer brand.

Heinerscheid, VP of marketing for Bud Light Blue (which refers to the main brand), was promoted to the job after a nearly eight-year tenure at Anheuser-Busch InBev in various marketing roles, including a recent stint as VP of direct-to-consumer marketing, which includes e-commerce. She created the role, proposing it to a top AB InBev exec via a 30-page pitch deck. It came after nearly four years of working on Bud Light, including overseeing the 2019 "Game of Thrones" Super Bowl ad collab.
Heinerscheid describes her return to lead Bud Light as a "homecoming," adding, "It's an incredibly iconic brand. I feel such humility and passion for the fact that this precious crown jewel of a brand has been placed under my stewardship." As for what's next: "Our No. 1 job on Bud Light is to grow meaning and relevance with new drinkers--that is how we transform and really preserve this brand for the next 40 years."

Not quite. All of the mass market light beers are more alike than they are different.

This debacles caused them to try something else *at all* and then the ongoing mess made those people want to keep trying that something else.

It takes 30-60 days to change a habit, and that's what brand preferences are: habits. In an undifferentiated market like "light beer" or "toothpaste" or "soap," the brand preference exists because it makes life easier. Get the same thing every time and don't think about it.

This went on for too long and now those people have *new* habits - that is, new brand preferences. I was calling this as a permanent decline once it rolled into June. It went on too long.

Question: do ads really influence someone to buy a particular brand of beer? I didn't come from an alcohol drinking family, so there was no "family" brand we grew up with. In college, everyone bought the cheapest label available, because it was college. Little money and desire for beer, any beer were the drivers there. Once I was on my own, I think the only beer I really enjoyed was Bitburger, in Germany, and that was because a gentleman at the Hofbrauhouse bought one for me. (So I guess free beer is the deciding factor there.) So do kids these days watch an ad or influencer and say, "So and so says this is good beer so I gotta try it!"

Heinerscheid, 38, oversaw a creative agency review that led to the late August hiring of Anomaly, which is taking over from Wieden+Kennedy, signaling big marketing changes ahead for the nation's largest beer brand.

INDIANA JONES AND THE DIAL OF DESTINY (Paramount/Lucasfilm/Disney) barely scraped the bottom of weekend expectations with $60M, and that studio estimate assumes an very strong Sunday. The extremely expensive tentpole–$400M+ in production and worldwide marketing costs–combined an elderly franchise built around an 80-year old star with mediocre reviews following an ill-advised Cannes premiere, to underwhelming results

Estimated. No real numbers yet.

And that isn't "underwhelming," it's a disaster. If - and it's a big "if" - Indy 5 performs comparably to the recent Marvel movies, it might end up at 2.5 that figure over it's whole run. That would be $325 million globally, which is less than the cost of production. And, of course, Disney doesn't get all that money (they get about half of it)..

They've spent at least $425 million on production and marketing and will probably net $150 to $175 million. That's a pretty staggering loss.

The bombs went off near a Truist bank, a Nike store, and a Safeway grocery. The police are saying "local businesses" were targeted.

130 We can thank the Left for accelerating the national divorce when the Right refuses to:

Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes tells U.S. Supreme Court to shove it. Colorado has a law on the books that says, in simple terms, a business open to the public can’t discriminate against gay people. The radical right-wing majority of the U.S. Supreme Court issued a ruling last week saying that, yes, it can.

Arizona has a law much like Colorado’s, and Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes announced in no uncertain terms that her office is determined to enforce it.bThe Supreme Court be damned.

"States Rights" to perpetuate racist laws. Federal Power to nullify progressive laws.

Let the billionaires funding these supreme court decisions go broke by taking EVERY case to the supreme court, over and over. They are an arbitrary body, anyway, not following any laws already on the books, themselves.

This was inevitable. The Court has no way to enforce it's bogus decisions, and I doubt the DOJ will do it for them.

It's also hard to translate older titles and series -- as well as older actors -- to the newer generation. Probably the biggest demographic of movie audiences was born many years after Raiders, and has no memory of the first three good Indy movies. Maybe they remember Crystal Skull and didn't like it. That is not a recipe for success for a fifth movie, especially one as pooch-screwing as this one.

The June 30 decision to deny the petition for certiorari, or review, in Kincaid v. Williams (court file 22-633), is important because it is being interpreted as a victory for the transgender rights movement.

So she brings the BL, and I say "whatever, I'll drink it, it's already paid for. Just grab a Yuengling next time, honey."

It was PURE SKUNK.

I went back and told them the beer was bad. The guy was just like "oh, thanks. These Budweiser kegs just sit until they go bad now." He was less-than-pleased.

Not.

Libs may suck at running anything at all, but they are organized 1000X better than conservatives are. They've been playing this game for decades and cons have been asleep the whole time. If conservatives had any game at all they would be down at the border educating these hordes of illegals instead of letting the left just have them. Work with what you're getting, deal with the hand you're being dealt. Those illegals are coming, better get them on our side. Same for lots of other issues. Stop whining, get off your asses and organize. The pro-2A people at least have their shit together, but I can't think of any other issue that conservatives are as well organized on. Maybe abortion. We are losing the war for the American mind. Wake the fuck up and do something about it like a liberal would. Organize, infiltrate, etc. Steal their playbook.

The marketing industry is extremely monolithic - white, affluent, and so far Left that the buildings they work in nearly tip over. You need to be in a newsroom or Congress to get a further Left group of people, and maybe not even there.

Changing which Party-connected group of scribblers peddles your product won't change the monkeypox-positive marketing.

294 Seriously unrelated to beer sales, but it explains a lot:

Per Wikipedia, "Censuses measuring race and ethnicity have been banned by the French government since 1978."

So info is hard to come by! And NOT by accident.

The info that IS out there, is kind of 3-card monte boob bait:

The French govt will only say that "10% of the population identify as Muslim." But that, of course excludes those who refuse to answer, and those who select "no religion."

The French Govt does report that "22% [of the population] have at least one foreign-born parent."

So what is the Arab foreign born + second generation Arab population of France, then? Impossible to determine, because it would be bad for you to know.

One more thing: As God is my witness, the media have trotted out the "mostly peaceful" line again.

AB has been nearly giving away their Bud Light, and a 28% decline means that there are still 72% who continue to drink it. If you have space for 10 or 20 or 50 or 500 cases of a beer you like at practically no cost, wouldn't you stock up?

Blah Blah and I loved him in Glengarry Glen Ross. We even bought 8 units in Mountain View from Shelly Levine. Being on a fixed income and with social security, we have to make the best investments we can, plus we like talking to salesmen.

302 Pretty sure the retail sales arr near zero bars et al have contracts that need to run out I think. But maybe not.

They're ok. Cattlemen's Restaurant in Downtown Ft. Worth has/had them on their menu years ago.

RMOs basically taste like chicken fried steak. More chewy. Not a particularly good cut of meat. Not awful, either. Unremarkable. A novelty food, basically.

I'd bet it is a 63/64 Chevy truck. Single headlight and distinctive cab.

307 The S&P 500 is under performing the market as a whole. The behemoths/Blackrock darlings are a drag on the economy

308 I've noticed a couple Yuengling logoed vans roaming the area, maybe sales calling on liquor stores. Maybe somebody is smart enough to strike while the iron is hot?

How long til he changes his name to Kelsey Travis? If you want your face on the can, buddy, you'll have to take one for the team.

The DOW has been in the low thirties under Bideny yet most funds have taken big hits. What's the explanation?

316 Yuengling is family owned. Traditionally one of the sons has actually bought the company from his parents. The current generation is all female so I feared the worst, but have been pleasantly surprised for the most part.

Not all of us females are woke idiots, you know.

317 307 Joe

For 2023 H1:

DOW +3.8%
S&P +15.9%
NQ +31.7%

Hard for me to conclude, as you do, that "the S&P is underperforming the market as a whole" in 2023.

318 Boycott Modelo too. A Mexican Beer is #1??? Boycott all the beers owned by InBev. American mircobrews or craft macros like Sierra Nevada, Samuel Adams, etc. Boycott Corona until the border is shut and we deport at least 50% of the illegals. Boycott Jose Cuervo under the same goals.

Oh, I don’t think she’s against fratty humor, as long as it’s the right frat.

321 Unions stand in solidarity with homosocialists? What a not-surprise this is.
