Distil plc ( (GB:DIS) ) has provided an announcement.

Distil plc has unveiled a major packaging refresh for its flagship RedLeg Spiced Rum range, the most significant redesign since the brand’s 2012 launch. Developed with Barlow & Co, the new look brightens the colour palette with greater use of RedLeg’s signature red, simplifies the wordmark with Caribbean sign-writing influences, and updates the hermit crab icon with foiling and tactile varnish to improve shelf standout and appeal to younger adult consumers. The refreshed core product is already rolling out across UK retail, on-trade venues and online, while the flavoured variants will follow later in the year with bolder coloured labels to enhance visibility and flavour recognition. Distil reports that 77% of surveyed consumers prefer the new pack, and early performance is described as encouraging, suggesting potential uplift in brand equity and sales as the company backs the redesign with further marketing support across both on- and off-trade channels.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:DIS) stock is a Hold with a £0.11 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Distil plc stock, see the GB:DIS Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on GB:DIS Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, GB:DIS is a Neutral.

The score is driven mainly by weak financial performance (multi-year losses and ongoing cash burn) and bearish technicals (price below key moving averages with negative MACD). Corporate updates provide some strategic positives and funding support, but they do not yet outweigh the current profitability and cash-flow risks; valuation is also constrained by loss-making results and no dividend.
