Beyond Meat announced a 1-for-30 reverse stock split, effective August 13, 2026. Every 30 shares of common stock will be combined into 1 share, and shares are expected to trade on a split-adjusted basis on the Nasdaq from August 14, still under the ticker "BYND" but with a new CUSIP. The company is also cutting its authorized shares from 3 billion to 100 million. The move is designed to lift the share price back above Nasdaq's minimum bid requirement and keep the stock listed.

Beyond Meat entered into a Second Supplemental Indenture with its trustee on August 10, 2026, amending the terms of its 7.00% convertible senior secured second lien notes due 2030. The amendment does two things: it lifts certain restrictions on the company's ability to repurchase or exchange its 0% convertible notes due 2027 for cash or equity, and it extends the make-whole period for conversions of the 2030 notes by three months, to January 15, 2029.

Beyond Meat (BYND) filed an 8-K on August 5, 2026 to confirm that it had issued its Q2 2026 earnings release for the quarter ended June 27, 2026. The press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1, but the full text isn’t included in this excerpt, so there are no actual revenue or profit figures to see here. The filing is mostly standard boilerplate, including the usual forward-looking statement disclaimer.

Beyond Meat filed an 8-K that covers two leadership changes. The company hired Brijesh Krishnaswamy as chief operating officer; he is expected to start part-time on Aug. 24, 2026, and convert to full-time on Sept. 30, 2026, with base salary going from $110,000 a year during the part-time period to $550,000 once he is full-time, plus a target bonus of 60% of salary, up to $100,000 in relocation reimbursement, and a $1.2 million equity award subject to compensation committee approval. John Boken, who had been handling COO duties on an interim basis, will no longer do so once Krishnaswamy starts full-time. The filing also says the board appointed founder and CEO Ethan Brown as a Class III director on July 28, filling the vacancy left by Raphael Wallander's resignation in May; the report date on the form is listed as July 26, but I am reporting the appointment date as written.

Beyond Meat announced it is in private talks with holders of its 2030 convertible notes to amend the terms. The amendment would allow Beyond Meat to repurchase or exchange its 2027 notes for cash or equity, and extend the make-whole adjustment period for conversions of the 2030 notes. The changes require consent from a majority of noteholders, and there is no guarantee they will happen.
