What the numbers say
CleaRank Financial AI's reading of TAP's valuation, growth and risks.
Molson Coors Beverage Company (TAP) carries no meaningful P/E, because the company lost money over the last 12 months. On sales, the P/S of 0.66 is 70.0% below the sector median P/S of 2.2. The market value stands at $7.4B.
TAP is losing money. Its net margin is -20.81% and its operating margin is 11.30%. Revenue shrank 3.30% over the latest year, leaving it 8.6 percentage points behind the Consumer Defensive sector median of 5.3%. Measured as return on equity, shareholders' capital earns -19.47%, which is below the sector median of 19.7%. Debt-to-equity sits at 0.76, and the trailing dividend yield is 4.83%, or $1.91 a share a year.
TAP's most recent report, dated August 6, 2026, showed EPS of $1.58 against the $1.51 analysts had expected, a beat of 4.64%. The stock followed with a rise of 2.26% in the next session.
TAP has beaten estimates in 5 of the last 7 reports, yet the stock fell after 1 of those 5 beats in the next session. Analysts expect this fiscal year's average EPS of $4.71, a decline of 13.1%. For next year they see $4.83, a rise of 2.6%.
The 30-day standard deviation of TAP's daily returns is 1.55%. The price is 27.91% below its 52-week high of $54.82. Over the last 18 months, insider sales totalled $128K against $562K of purchases; planned sales and tax sales on vesting shares make selling a weaker signal than buying.

CleaRank AI analysis of TAP
The score, the reasoning behind it, and what could move the price next.
Molson Coors Beverage Company (TAP) is caught between its two moving averages. The price of $39.52 sits 7.67% below the 200-day average of $42.80, yet 0.32% above the 50-day average of $39.40. Sitting at 21% of its 52-week range, the price is 11.26% above the 52-week low of $35.52. The 50-day average is 7.96% below the 200-day, a sign that the recovery has yet to climb to the longer-run averages.
Recent gains sit against a weaker longer record: the price rose 1.05% over the past month, fell 3.44% over the past three months and fell 15.99% over the past year. On momentum, the 14-day RSI reads 61.2, in the bullish zone, below the overbought line, although the MACD line is negative, which pulls the other way. The price rose 1.26% in the last session on volume 30.0% above its average.

- Keep an eye on the two closest levels: the 200-day SMA at $42.80 overhead and the 50-day SMA at $39.40 underfoot.
- The 14-day RSI reads 61.2, in the bullish zone, with the MACD line negative; readings above 70 or below 30 mark stretched momentum.
- After the August 6, 2026 report the share price rose 2.26% in the first session; TAP beat estimates in 5 of the last 7 reports.
TAP has a mixed trend. The price is above its 50-day average of $39.40 but below its 200-day average of $42.80. Should the price close above the 200-day, both signals would turn up. A close below the 50-day would turn both down. For now the price sits between the 50-day SMA ($39.40) beneath it and the 200-day SMA ($42.80) above it.

Long-term scenarios
Thousands of simulated paths from the price history. A range of outcomes, not a forecast.
Monte Carlo projection
Thousands of simulated paths for $10,000 in TAP, from its own past volatility. The shaded area holds 80% of them.
CleaRank's 10-year Monte Carlo simulation projects that a $10,000 investment in TAP today could grow to about $7,610 by 2036 in the base case, with a 90th-percentile outcome near $24,444 and a 10th-percentile outcome around $2,369. The simulation models price only; at today's 4.83% yield, dividends would add to these figures. Projections are statistical simulations, not guarantees.
TAP Stock Price Prediction: 2030
The same simulation in share prices, year by year.
CleaRank's simulation projects a price near $35.43 for TAP by 2030 in the base case, from $39.52 today (0.9x over 4 years). The 10th-percentile path ends near $16.94. These are outcomes of a Monte Carlo simulation run on TAP's historical return distribution, not price targets, and they assume no dividends are reinvested.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2027 | $26.59 | $38.46 | $55.62 | |
