Rhea AI BYND FY2025 2026-05-07

FY2025 profit was accounting-deep, not operating-deep: core sales still produced too little gross margin to cover the cost base.

FY2025 reported $219M of net income even as operating cash flow stayed at -$144.9M, so the year's profit was not converting into cash. Set beside a -$333.6M operating loss, that gap says the bottom-line profit came from below the operating line rather than from the core selling engine, which still failed to cover its cost base.

Gross margin rebounded from -24.1% in FY2023 to 12.8% in FY2024, which points to a meaningful improvement in production economics or revenue mix before FY2025. But FY2025 slipped back to 2.8% while operating margin fell to -121.1%, meaning that recovery was too thin to support the overhead structure.

Long-term debt fell to $415.7M from $1.14B, so FY2025 looks more like a balance-sheet reset than an operating turnaround. Even after that change, equity was roughly zero because liabilities still edged above assets, leaving little cushion and making outside capital more important than internally generated cash.

Health score ≠ stock price. This rates the quality of Beyond Meat's business: profitability, growth, balance sheet strength. It doesn't tell you whether the stock is a good buy at today's price. Not financial advice. Use it alongside valuation analysis and your own research.

Profitability

Beyond Meat has an operating margin of -121.1%, meaning the company retains $-121 of operating profit per $100 of revenue. This below-average margin results in a low score of 0/100, suggesting thin profitability after operating expenses. This is down from -47.8% the prior year.

Growth

Beyond Meat's revenue declined 15.6% year-over-year, from $326.5M to $275.5M. This contraction results in a growth score of 16/100.

Leverage

Beyond Meat has elevated debt relative to equity (D/E of -416.99), meaning the company relies heavily on borrowed funds. This high leverage results in a low score of 0/100, reflecting increased financial risk.

Liquidity

With a current ratio of 4.56, Beyond Meat holds $4.56 in current assets for every $1 of short-term obligations. This comfortable liquidity earns a score of 91/100.

Cash Flow

While Beyond Meat generated -$144.9M in operating cash flow, capex of $12.3M consumed most of it, leaving -$157.2M in free cash flow. This results in a low score of 0/100, reflecting heavy capital investment rather than weak cash generation.

Beyond Meat passes 3 of 9 financial strength tests. 2 of 4 profitability signals pass, 1 of 3 leverage/liquidity signals pass, neither operating efficiency signal passes.

Earnings Quality Low Quality

-0.66x

For every $1 of reported earnings, Beyond Meat generates $-0.66 in operating cash flow (-$144.9M OCF vs $219.0M net income). This low ratio suggests earnings are primarily driven by accounting accruals rather than cash generation, which may not be sustainable.

Interest Coverage At Risk

-23.8x

Beyond Meat earns $-23.8 in operating income for every $1 of interest expense (-$333.6M vs $14.0M). This narrow margin raises concern about the company's ability to service its debt if operating income declines.
