The decreasing trend in the quick ratio over the years, culminating in the missing data in 2025, indicates a possible deterioration in Constellation Brands Inc Class A's ability to meet its short-term obligations with its readily available assets. This trend warrants further analysis and monitoring to understand the underlying reasons and implications for the company's financial health.
