BYND Earnings: Beyond Meat Q3 loss widens despite 13% revenue growth

Beyond Meat, Inc. (NASDAQ: BYND) on Wednesday reported a wider loss for the third quarter of 2021, despite a double-digit increase in revenues. The results missed Wall Street’s forecast.

The El Segundo-based company, a pioneer in plant-based meat substitutes, reported a loss of $0.87 per share for the September quarter, on an adjusted basis, which is wider than last year’s loss of $0.28 per share. Analysts were looking for a smaller loss for the latest quarter.

The reported net loss was $54.8 million or $0.87 per share, compared to a loss of $19.3 million or $0.31 per share in the third quarter of 2020. Meanwhile, revenues increased 13% annually to $106.4 million but missed expectations.

“Our third-quarter results reflect variability as we saw a decline from record net revenues just a quarter ago. Despite current disruptions, we remain focused on rapidly advancing key building blocks of long-term growth,” said Ethan Brown, chief executive officer of Beyond Meat.
