Explanatory Note
On August 6, 2025, Beyond Meat, Inc. (the “Company”) issued an earnings release and filed a Current Report on Form 8-K announcing its financial results for the second quarter ended June 28, 2025 (the “Original Earnings Release”). The Company is filing this Current Report on Form 8-K/A to furnish the earnings release, as revised (the “Revised Earnings Release”), solely to correct the reported amount of “Selling, general and administrative expenses” and the resulting effects of such change on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations, Balance Sheets and Statements of Cash Flows. Total Selling, general and administrative expenses (in thousands) should be $37,696 for the three months ended June 28, 2025 rather than $41,616 and $85,368 for the six months ended June 28, 2025 rather than $89,288, as previously reported. The reduced, amended amounts are the result of amortizing certain expenses totaling $4,478 (in thousands) for the three and six months ended June 28, 2025, respectively, and characterized as “Certain non-routine SG&A expenses” over 12 and 24 month periods, rather than expensing the full amount in the second quarter of 2025. No other corrections have been made to the Revised Earnings Release. The information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K/A and the Revised Earnings Release amends and supersedes the corresponding information contained in the Original Earnings Release.
Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On August 8, 2025, the Company posted to the Investor Relations section of its website the Revised Earnings Release to correct an error in its Original Earnings Release, as described in the Explanatory Note above. The full text of the Revised Earnings Release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information contained or incorporated by reference in this Item 2.02, including the Revised Earnings Release furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1, shall not be deemed “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K/A constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the federal securities laws. These statements are based on management’s current opinions, expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, assumptions or projections regarding future events or future results. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding the Company’s operations and financial results and expected charges and savings related to the Company’s workforce reduction described herein. These forward-looking statements are only predictions, not historical fact, and involve certain risks and uncertainties, as well as assumptions. Actual results, levels of activity, performance, achievements and events could differ materially from those stated, anticipated or implied by such forward-looking statements. While the Company believes that its assumptions are reasonable, it is very difficult to predict the impact of known factors, and, of course, it is impossible to anticipate all factors that could affect actual results. There are many risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements made or implied herein including the risks discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC on
March 5, 2025, the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 29, 2025 filed with the SEC on May 8, 2025 and the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 28, 2025 to be filed with the SEC, as well as other factors described from time to time in the Company's filings with the SEC. Such forward-looking statements are made only as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K/A. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement because of new information, future events or otherwise, except as otherwise required by law. If it does update one or more forward-looking statements, no inference should be made that the Company will make additional updates with respect to those or other forward-looking statements.
