Beyond Meat Investor Lawsuit Update: March 2026 Deadline


02/11/2026


Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a nationally recognized securities litigation firm, is reviewing possible claims on behalf of investors in Beyond Meat, Inc. (“Beyond Meat” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: BYND). The firm reminds investors that the deadline to seek appointment as lead plaintiff in the federal securities class action lawsuit against the Company is March 24, 2026.

Faruqi & Faruqi maintains offices in New York, Pennsylvania, California, and Georgia, and has secured recoveries totaling hundreds of millions of dollars for investors since its establishment in 1995. Additional information is available at www.faruqilaw.com.

According to the complaint, Beyond Meat and certain of its senior executives allegedly violated federal securities laws by issuing inaccurate or misleading statements and omitting key information, including: (1) that the carrying value of some of the Company’s long-lived assets exceeded their fair value, making a significant non-cash impairment charge likely; (2) that this situation could hinder Beyond Meat’s ability to file required reports with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on time; and (3) that, as a result, public statements made by the Company were materially misleading during the relevant period.

On November 3, 2025, before the market opened, Beyond Meat announced it would postpone releasing its third-quarter 2025 financial results to complete its impairment analysis. Following this announcement, the Company’s stock price declined by $0.265, or 16.01%, closing at $1.39 per share that day.

On November 10, 2025, after the market closed, Beyond Meat released its Q3 2025 results, reporting an operating loss of $112.3 million, including $77.4 million in non-cash impairment charges related to certain long-lived assets. After this disclosure, the stock price dropped another $0.12, or 8.96%, closing at $1.22 per share on November 11, 2025.

Later on November 11, 2025, during an earnings call with investors and analysts, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, Lubi Kutua, stated that the $77.4 million impairment was allocated across property, plant, and equipment, operating lease right-of-use assets, and prepaid lease expenses. Following this call, Beyond Meat’s stock price fell an additional $0.105, or 8.61%, closing at $1.115 per share on November 12, 2025.

In securities class actions, the court-appointed lead plaintiff is typically the investor with the greatest financial stake who can adequately represent the class and oversee the litigation. Any eligible investor may apply to serve as lead plaintiff through legal counsel, or choose to remain a passive class member. Participation as a lead plaintiff does not affect an investor’s ability to receive any potential recovery.

Faruqi & Faruqi also invites individuals with knowledge of Beyond Meat’s actions—including whistleblowers, former employees, shareholders, and others—to contact the firm with relevant information.
