FAQ

AI-generated questions and answers. How Rhea-AI works. Not financial advice.

What does the BYND 144/A filing report?

It reports amended Form 144 notices to sell vested restricted shares of Beyond Meat (BYND). The excerpt lists multiple individual lots with grant/vesting dates and share counts but does not state aggregate proceeds.

Who is listed as the broker-dealer in the BYND 144/A filing?

Merrill Lynch is listed as the broker-dealer. The filing shows Merrill Lynch contact information and multiple lots submitted for cash sale through that broker-dealer.

How many shares are included in the BYND amendment examples?

Examples in the excerpt include 1,314 shares and 4,134 shares. The filing lists many additional lot sizes (for example, 2,555 and 288) across grant dates from 02/20/2021 to 03/01/2026.

Does the 144/A excerpt show proceeds or sale prices for BYND shares?

No—proceeds and prices are not provided in the excerpt. The lines identify lot sizes, grant/vesting dates, and cash sale designation but do not state execution prices or aggregate proceeds.

Are these shares newly vested or previously vested in the BYND filing?

The filing lists these items as "Vested Restricted Shares." Each row pairs an original grant or vesting date with a lot size and labels the security as vested restricted shares.
