Beyond Meat is a food manufacturer that produces plant-based meat substitutes. Beyond Meat has repeatedly touted its partnerships with large national fast-food chains and its ability to manufacture plant-based meat products at commercial scale.

The securities class action alleges that Beyond Meat made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) the Company overstated the success of its product tests with national food chains and the likelihood of full-scale product launches; (2) the Company was unable to manufacture its products at the scale it told investors; and (3) delays in launching Beyond Meat’s partnerships were caused by ongoing product quality and scaling concerns and not the COVID-19 pandemic, or other factors, as defendants claimed.

The truth began to emerge on October 22, 2021 when Beyond Meat announced that it was lowering its net revenues guidance for the third quarter by 25%. The Company also disclosed that its expenses and inventories were increasing. On this news, the price of Beyond Meat stock fell $12.82, or 11.8%, to close at $95.80 per share on October 22, 2021 on elevated trading volume.

On November 17, 2021, Bloomberg reported that Beyond Meat was experiencing significant delays in production and, according to former employees, there were “significant internal problems” stemming from “confusion and misalignment . . . [and] belated decision-making” that corresponded with exacerbated production delays. On this news, the price of Beyond Meat stock fell $3.01 per share, or 3.61%, to close at $80.47.

On December 9, 2021, multiple media sources reported that Taco Bell cancelled a planned Beyond Meat product test because of quality concerns. On this news, the price of Beyond Meat stock fell $5.58 per share, or 7.96%, to close at $64.51 per share on December 10, 2021.
