Our latest recap available to Bespoke subscribers covers Constellation Brands’ (STZ) Q3 2025 earnings call.
Constellation Brands (STZ) is a premier producer of beer, wine, and spirits, known for iconic brands like Corona, Modelo, and others. In Q3 fiscal 2025, STZ discussed subdued consumer spending and elevated unemployment rates, particularly among Hispanic consumers. Despite that, the Beer Business achieved a 3.2% growth in depletions and a 3% increase in net sales. The company advanced over half of its target of 500,000 additional distribution outlets and introduced innovative pack formats, such as the 12-ounce Chelada cans. The Wine and Spirits segment faced a 14% decline in net sales due to demand headwinds and inventory de-stocking but saw growth in high-end brands like Meiomi and Kim Crawford following the divestiture of SVEDKA.

An earnings triple play is a stock that reports earnings and manages to 1) beat analyst EPS estimates, 2) beat analyst sales estimates, and 3) raise forward guidance. You can read more about “triple plays” at Investopedia.com where they’ve given Bespoke credit for popularizing the term. We like triple plays as an indication that a company’s business is firing on all cylinders, with better-than-expected results and an improving outlook. A triple play is indicative of positive “fundamental momentum” instead of pure fundamentals, and there are always plenty of names with both high and low valuations on our quarterly list.
Bespoke’s Triple Play Report highlights companies that have recently reported earnings triple plays, and it features commentary from management on triple-play conference calls, company descriptions and analysis, and price charts. Bespoke’s Triple Play Report is available at the Bespoke Institutional level only. You can sign up for Bespoke Institutional now and receive a 14-day trial to read this week’s Triple Play Report, which features 24 new stocks.

Sportradar (SRAD) is an example of a company that recently reported an earnings triple play, its first since its IPO in 2021. The stock rallied 13% in reaction to the triple play on 11/7, which has subsequently triggered further gains putting the stock up about 40% since the beginning of November. That’s an impressive six weeks! Despite the gains, shares remain roughly 35% below their IPO price, so they still have ground to make up.
SRAD works as the behind-the-scenes engine driving everything from live game updates to sports betting platforms. The company partners with big leagues like the NBA, NHL, and more, collecting and distributing real-time statistics to media outlets, sportsbooks, and leagues worldwide. They also use advanced technology to spot suspicious betting patterns. What makes SRAD particularly interesting is its position at the intersection of two booming trends: the global rise of legal sports betting, and the increasing demand for real-time, data-driven fan experiences. As the betting markets expand, especially in the US, SRAD’s services are becoming indispensable for sportsbooks looking to provide accurate odds and more engaging features to bring more business to their platforms. There have also been several companies that we’ve recently covered noting the growing popularity of sports, whether it be the recent and upcoming Olympics, World Cup, College Football, and NFL playoffs, or the broader rise of women’s sports as seen with women’s college basketball and the WNBA. Sports is undoubtedly a hot place to be. Additionally, SRAD’s embrace of AI and predictive analytics also sets them apart and brings them into the AI slipstream, allowing them to offer next-gen insights that could redefine how fans and businesses interact with sports.
