Beyond Meat (NASDAQ:BYND) shares are down on Wednesday following the company’s disclosure that it is delaying the reporting of its fourth-quarter and full-year financial results until Mar. 31, 2026.
Details
Beyond Meat announced that it is rescheduling its financial results release, which was originally set for earlier this month.
The company cited the need for additional time to complete its financial close procedures and address material weaknesses in internal controls related to inventory provision, which may have led to errors in previously issued financial statements.
In addition, the company plans to file its Annual Report on Form 10-K on the same day, Mar. 31, 2026, after market close.
This report will include information regarding the identified material weaknesses and the prospective corrections for the first three quarters of 2025.
Notably, this is the second time the company has delayed its annual report filing. Last week, the company stated that it will release quarterly results on Mar. 25, citing additional time required to review inventory balances, including excess and obsolete inventory.
Preliminary Results
Also, last week, the company reported preliminary fourth quarter net revenue of around $61 million, in line with the previous guidance range of $60 million-$65 million vs. consensus of $62.57 million.
Also, Beyond Meat expects net revenues of about $275 million in 2025.
