Frequently asked questions
What is Brown-Forman Corporation's revenue?
Brown-Forman Corporation's trailing twelve-month revenue is $3.91B. Revenue is the top line the whole model builds on, and at this scale the question shifts from how fast it grows to whether margins hold as it compounds.
How profitable is BF-B?
In its most recent fiscal year, BF-B ran a gross margin of 60.54%, an operating margin of 28.23%, and a net margin of 18.20%. Margins this high mean most of each extra dollar of revenue drops through to profit, which is the signature of real pricing power.
How much free cash flow does BF-B generate?
BF-B produced $893.00M in free cash flow in its most recent fiscal year. Free cash flow is what is left after running and reinvesting in the business, and it is the cash that actually funds buybacks, dividends, and a stronger balance sheet.
Is BF-B's balance sheet healthy?
BF-B holds $308.00M in cash and equivalents against — in long-term debt, on $4.02B of shareholder equity. That debt is best read against the cash flow the business throws off each year.
