On February 22, 2024, MGPI provided guidance for fiscal year 2024 with a midpoint that was 4.9% below analyst consensus.  During an earnings call that same day, President and Chief Executive Officer David S. Bratcher confirmed industry reports that "inventory destocking at a wholesale level will remain an issue for the branded spirits industry in 2024." 

On this news, MGPI's stock price fell $13.65 per share, or 14.86%, to close at $78.18 per share on February 22, 2024. 

Then, on October 17, 2024, MGPI admitted that soft demand and high inventories were undermining sales.  The following day, Wells Fargo published a report noting that it was lowering its expectations for MGPI's stock price, stating that the Company had "credibility issues". 

Following MGPI's announcement and Wells Fargo's report, the Company's stock price fell $19.71 per share, or 24.16%, to close at $61.86 per share on October 18, 2024.
