The Brown-Forman Form 8-K summary notes that fiscal 2026 net sales were down 1% and mentions lower volumes 'especially after ending the Korbel relationship and Sonoma-Cutrer transition services'; this refers to a previously disclosed change in distribution relationships, not a new state or regional market exit announced during the resolution window.https://www.stocktitan.net/sec-filings/BF/8-k-brown-forman-corp-reports-material-event-c2d10e8d6fc8.html
