2026-05-15SEC Filing SCHEDULE 13G/A (0001193125-26-227122)

This Schedule 13G/A, filed on May 15, 2026, by Berkshire Hathaway Inc. and its Chairman, Warren E. Buffett, reports a new ownership position in Constellation Brands, Inc. (STZ). As of the event date on March 31, 2026, the reporting group beneficially owns 632,890 shares of Class A Common Stock, representing approximately 0.4% of the outstanding shares. The filing identifies several subsidiaries under the Berkshire Hathaway umbrella as part of the reporting group, including National Indemnity Company, GEICO Corporation, and Government Employees Insurance Company. The reporting persons indicate that the shares were acquired in the ordinary course of business and not with the intent to influence or change the control of the issuer. This filing marks an increase from a previously reported 0.0% ownership stake, though the overall holding remains below the 5% threshold typically requiring a 13G filing, suggesting this may be a voluntary disclosure or part of a larger reporting strategy for the group.
