EDGAR company pages and a date-bounded EDGAR 8-K search show no Form 8-K between May 12–16, 2026 from known publicly traded large spirits distributors (e.g., Molson Coors, Diageo) that reports any brand exit, delisting, or discontinuation in a US state, so the criterion for a YES resolution is not met.

Top-10 US distributor files SEC 8-K naming brand exit or state delisting.
Distributor consolidation and brand departures have accelerated. RNDC, Southern Glazer's, and other major players have been shedding slower-moving portfolios. An 8-K filing would signal another round of portfolio rationalization, a key signal of category health and competitive pressure.
Distributor M&A and portfolio pruning remain hot topics in trade press. A major distributor filing an 8-K to disclose a brand departure or state-level delisting would confirm ongoing rationalization and suggest margin pressure or competitive repositioning. This is a leading indicator of which brands are losing shelf space.
YES if any publicly traded top-10 US spirits distributor (by revenue) files an SEC 8-K on or before Friday, May 16, 2026, that explicitly names a brand exit, delisting, or discontinuation in any US state. NO if no such filing occurs.
