Recommendation #1:
Reduce Anheuser-Busch Holdings
![Page 6: Consumer Staples: Stock Recommendations](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56812ba4550346895d8fd99b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Anheuser-Busch Largest brewer in North America
48.8% market share Segments
U.S. Beer International Beer Packaging Entertainment
Growth opportunities International expansion Strategic investment in other beverage producers Distribution agreements Rumored merger with InBev
![Page 7: Consumer Staples: Stock Recommendations](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56812ba4550346895d8fd99b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
A-B Business AnalysisPros Strong brand
Successfully implemented pricing increases Massive distribution channel
Being leveraged to diversify product mix Strategic investments contributing to growth
Grupo Modelo generating much of BUD’s recent growth Consistent cash flows
Dividend yield of 2.70% History of and planned stock buybacks which should boost stock price
Cons North American growth flat
Accounts for majority of revenues Weakness in core brands Margins under pressure
Commodity, labor, marketing, and distribution costs increasing Expansion and diversification strategy is a wildcard
Growth so far has largely been just enough to offset declines in core brands

Anheuser-Busch Summary Lack of organic growth is cause for concern International growth slow in materializing Concerned BUD will need to make sizeable
unplanned investments in marketing and expansion Valuation, performance, and market sentiment
imply limited upside gains in the near term Recommend selling 137bp (50% of holding) Diversification and international endeavors could be
catalysts for higher valuations Re-evaluate remaining position in 3 months

Recommendation #2:
Increase Colgate-Palmolive Holdings
![Page 12: Consumer Staples: Stock Recommendations](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062516/56812ba4550346895d8fd99b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Colgate-Palmolive Large, mature consumer products company Segments
Oral, Personal, and Home Care Pet Nutrition

increased product innovation, more efficient spending on marketing, closing of 1/3 of CL’s factories and more focus on faster growing markets.

C-P Business AnalysisPros Strong brand recognition
Market leader in 53 of the 71 largest toothpaste markets worldwide
Growth in foreign markets Currently, 75% of sales are from international operations and
growing Benefit of weak dollar
Makes goods cheaper to foreign buyers and increases earnings when translated back to dollars
Benefits of restructuring In the second quarter, earnings skyrocketed 49% to $0.76 per
share. Excluding restructuring costs, Colgate earned $0.84 a share, compared to $0.72 a year ago.

C-P Business AnalysisCons Modest growth domestically
2nd quarter sales increase over previous year:North America : 3.5% Europe/South Pacific : 17.0%Latin America: 16.0% Asia/Africa : 15.5%
Pet food recall/counterfeit toothpaste hurting brand Colgate has been proactive in restoring trust in brand
Rising commodity prices/energy prices reduces net margin

Colgate Summary Generating higher earnings through
restructuring plan Excellent international growth Market leader in their key segment
(toothpaste) DCF target price: 80.47, 17.5% upside. Recommend buying 85 basis points
(61.2% increase in current holdings)

Recommendation Summary Anheuser-Busch is fairly valued
Lacking a catalyst upside is currently limited Sell 137bp now and re-evaluate position as
information about diversification strategy is available
Colgate offers an attractive upside Company restructuring should boost growth International exposure and weak dollar create a
favorable environment for CL Accumulate an additional 85bp
Return 52bp for investment in other sectors
