We can see that STZ had a great upwards trend, but has since experienced some volatility and has trended sideways for the past 3 years. STZ missed their most recent earnings, but they've beat 9/10 of their last earnings. STZ has also had consistent increasing annual top-line revenue. Although this company has had increasing annual top-line revenue, which is one of our primary criteria to invest in a company, we would also like to see a strong, consistent upwards trend over time.
