In addition to sales through its company-operated retail stores, Starbucks sells whole bean coffees through a specialty sales group and supermarkets. Additionally, Starbucks produces and sells bottled Frappuccino coffee drink and a line of premium ice creams through its joint venture partnerships and offers a line of innovative premium teas produced by its wholly owned subsidiary, Tazo Tea Company. The company&#8217;s objective is to establish Starbucks as the most recognized and respected brand in the world.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000080;\"><strong>Want to learn more about ValuEngine?

This global coffee alliance will allow Nestle to obtain the rights to market, sell, and distribute Starbucks\u00ae, Seattle\u2019s Best Coffee\u00ae, Starbucks Reserve\u00ae, Teavana\u2122, Starbucks VIA\u00ae and Torrefazione Italia\u00ae packaged coffee and tea in all global at-home and away-from-home channels.<\/p>\n<p>Kevin Johnson, president and chief executive officer, Starbucks, said that<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">This global coffee alliance will bring the Starbucks experience to the homes of millions more around the world through the reach and reputation of Nestl\u00e9. This historic deal is part of our ongoing efforts to focus and evolve our business to meet changing consumer needs, and we are proud to work alongside a company that is committed to our shared values.<\/p>\n<p>The sale will provide Starbucks with a big cash infusion, and that cash may help investors. Starbucks intends to use the after-tax proceeds from this up-front payment primarily to accelerate share buybacks and now expects to return approximately $20 billion in cash to shareholders in the form of share buybacks and dividends through fiscal year 2020. Additionally, the transaction is expected to be earnings per share (EPS) accretive by the end of fiscal year 2021 or sooner, with no change to the company\u2019s currently stated long-term financial targets.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, our models have been down on the stock of late, and we continue our SELL recommendation on Starbucks for 2018-05-04. Based on the information we have gathered and our resulting research, we feel that Starbucks has the probability to UNDERPERFORM average market performance for the next year. The company exhibits UNATTRACTIVE Book Market Ratio and Momentum.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, this may change as analysts update their earnings estimates and the stock price changes if the firm follows through on their buyback plans.<\/p>\n<p>You can download a free copy of detailed report on Starbucks (SBUX) from the link below.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.valuengine.com\/charts\/pricerating_jpg\/SBUX.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<table width=\"45%\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td colspan=\"3\"><strong>ValuEngine Forecast<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\" width=\"90\"><\/td>\n<th width=\"122\">Target<br \/>\nPrice*<\/th>\n<th width=\"113\">Expected<br \/>\nReturn<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>1-Month<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>57.42<\/td>\n<td>-0.45%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>3-Month<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>57.61<\/td>\n<td>-0.12%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>6-Month<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>56.20<\/td>\n<td>-2.56%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>1-Year<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>54.59<\/td>\n<td>-5.36%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>2-Year<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>54.97<\/td>\n<td>-4.70%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>3-Year<\/strong><\/td>\n<td>55.06<\/td>\n<td>-4.54%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<table width=\"65%\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td colspan=\"4\"><strong>Valuation &amp;
