Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Beyond Meat (BYND) filed an 8-K/A to correct its Q2-25 earnings release. The only change is a downward revision of Selling, General & Administrative (SG&A) expense after management decided to amortize US$4.478 m of previously expensed “certain non-routine SG&A expenses.”

  • Q2-25 SG&A now reported at $37.696 m versus $41.616 m originally (-$3.92 m).
  • 1H-25 SG&A now $85.368 m versus $89.288 m originally (-$3.92 m).
  • No other line items, guidance or narratives were changed.

The amendment improves Q2 and year-to-date operating expenses and, by extension, narrows operating loss and cash burn, but the filing emphasizes that all other previously disclosed figures remain intact. Management furnished the revised earnings release (Exhibit 99.1) and reiterated that the information is furnished, not filed, limiting potential legal liability. Forward-looking statements and risk factor references are unchanged.

Beyond Meat (BYND) ha presentato un 8-K/A per correggere il comunicato sugli utili del secondo trimestre 2025. L'unica modifica riguarda una revisione al ribasso delle spese di Vendita, Generali e Amministrative (SG&A) dopo che la direzione ha deciso di ammortizzare 4,478 milioni di dollari di "alcune spese SG&A non ordinarie" precedentemente contabilizzate come costo.

  • Le spese SG&A del secondo trimestre 2025 sono ora riportate a 37,696 milioni di dollari rispetto ai 41,616 milioni iniziali (-3,92 milioni).
  • Le spese SG&A del primo semestre 2025 sono ora 85,368 milioni di dollari rispetto agli 89,288 milioni iniziali (-3,92 milioni).
  • Non sono state apportate modifiche ad altre voci, alle previsioni o ai commenti.

La modifica migliora le spese operative del secondo trimestre e del periodo cumulato dell'anno e, di conseguenza, riduce la perdita operativa e il consumo di cassa, ma il documento sottolinea che tutte le altre cifre precedentemente comunicate rimangono invariate. La direzione ha fornito il comunicato rivisto sugli utili (Esibizione 99.1) ribadendo che l'informazione è fornita, non depositata, limitando così la responsabilità legale potenziale. Le dichiarazioni previsionali e i riferimenti ai fattori di rischio restano invariati.

Beyond Meat (BYND)는 2025년 2분기 실적 발표를 수정하기 위해 8-K/A를 제출했습니다. 유일한 변경 사항은 경영진이 이전에 비용 처리한 "일부 비일상적인 SG&A 비용" 4.478백만 달러를 상각하기로 결정함에 따라 판매, 일반 및 관리비(SG&A) 비용을 하향 조정한 것입니다.

  • 2025년 2분기 SG&A 비용은 원래 41.616백만 달러에서 37.696백만 달러로 조정되어 3.92백만 달러 감소했습니다.
  • 2025년 상반기 SG&A 비용은 원래 89.288백만 달러에서 85.368백만 달러로 조정되어 3.92백만 달러 감소했습니다.
  • 다른 항목, 가이드라인 또는 설명은 변경되지 않았습니다.

이번 수정은 2분기 및 연간 누적 영업비용을 개선하고, 그에 따라 영업손실과 현금 소모를 줄였지만, 제출 문서에서는 이전에 공개된 다른 모든 수치는 그대로 유지된다고 강조합니다. 경영진은 수정된 실적 발표문(증빙자료 99.1)을 제공했으며, 해당 정보가 제출된 것이 아니라 제공된 것임을 재확인하여 잠재적인 법적 책임을 제한합니다. 미래 예측 진술 및 위험 요소 언급은 변경되지 않았습니다.

Beyond Meat (BYND) a déposé un 8-K/A pour corriger son communiqué de résultats du deuxième trimestre 2025. Le seul changement concerne une révision à la baisse des frais de vente, généraux et administratifs (SG&A) après que la direction a décidé d'amortir 4,478 millions de dollars de "certaines dépenses SG&A non récurrentes" précédemment comptabilisées en charges.

  • Les frais SG&A du T2 2025 sont désormais de 37,696 millions de dollars contre 41,616 millions initialement (-3,92 millions).
  • Les frais SG&A du premier semestre 2025 sont désormais de 85,368 millions de dollars contre 89,288 millions initialement (-3,92 millions).
  • Aucune autre ligne, prévision ou commentaire n'a été modifié.

Cette modification améliore les charges d'exploitation du T2 et de l'année à ce jour et, par extension, réduit la perte opérationnelle et la consommation de trésorerie, mais le dépôt souligne que toutes les autres données précédemment divulguées restent inchangées. La direction a fourni le communiqué de résultats révisé (Exhibit 99.1) et a réitéré que l'information est fournie, non déposée, limitant ainsi la responsabilité juridique potentielle. Les déclarations prospectives et les références aux facteurs de risque restent inchangées.

Beyond Meat (BYND) hat eine 8-K/A eingereicht, um die Gewinnmitteilung für das zweite Quartal 2025 zu korrigieren. Die einzige Änderung ist eine Abwärtskorrektur der Vertriebs-, Verwaltungs- und Allgemeinkosten (SG&A), nachdem das Management beschlossen hat, 4,478 Mio. USD zuvor als Aufwand verbuchte "bestimmte nicht routinemäßige SG&A-Kosten" abzuschreiben.

  • Die SG&A-Kosten für das zweite Quartal 2025 werden nun mit 37,696 Mio. USD statt ursprünglich 41,616 Mio. USD angegeben (-3,92 Mio. USD).
  • Die SG&A-Kosten für das erste Halbjahr 2025 betragen nun 85,368 Mio. USD statt ursprünglich 89,288 Mio. USD (-3,92 Mio. USD).
  • Keine anderen Positionen, Prognosen oder Erläuterungen wurden geändert.

Die Änderung verbessert die operativen Aufwendungen für das zweite Quartal und das Jahr bis dato und verringert dadurch den operativen Verlust und den Cash-Burn, betont jedoch, dass alle anderen zuvor veröffentlichten Zahlen unverändert bleiben. Das Management hat die überarbeitete Gewinnmitteilung (Anlage 99.1) bereitgestellt und bekräftigt, dass die Informationen bereitgestellt, nicht eingereicht wurden, um potenzielle rechtliche Haftung zu begrenzen. Prognoseaussagen und Hinweise auf Risikofaktoren bleiben unverändert.

Positive
  • Lower reported SG&A by US$3.92 m for Q2-25 and 1H-25, modestly improving operating loss and EBITDA.
  • Prompt disclosure via 8-K/A and updated Exhibit 99.1 demonstrates management’s willingness to correct errors quickly.
Negative
  • Need for a financial correction highlights potential weaknesses in accounting controls and could concern investors focused on reporting accuracy.

Insights

TL;DR: Minor restatement cuts SG&A by ~$4 m; negligible valuation impact but flags reporting accuracy.

The correction trims SG&A by 9% for Q2, improving EBITDA by the same amount, but that equates to ≈US$0.05/share on a net-loss base—immaterial to valuation. Because revenue, gross margin and cash guidance are untouched, outlook assumptions stand. However, any need to amend financials raises questions around internal controls, especially after BYND’s recent cost-cut initiatives. I view the event as neutral: slightly positive for near-term metrics, offset by incremental perception risk.

TL;DR: Restatement shows transparency, but recurring errors could trigger SEC scrutiny.

Management acted promptly by filing an 8-K/A and clearly disclosing the nature and magnitude of the adjustment. Because the change involves amortization timing rather than cash, it is unlikely to affect covenants or liquidity. Nonetheless, investors will monitor forthcoming 10-Q for remediation steps; repeated misstatements can elevate SOX 404 control deficiencies. Overall governance signal is neutral to slightly adverse until controls are clarified.

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.
