표면상으로 볼 때, 비욘드 미트(NASDAQ:BYND)는 투자 기회 중 하나를 나타내는 것처럼 보인다. 2022년, 딜로이트(Deloitte)의 조사에 따르면 90%의 젊은 소비자들가 재정적 제약에도 불구하고 환경에 미치는 영향을 줄이기 위한 노력을 했으며, 이에는 식물 기반 식품 사용도 포함되었다. 불행히도, 이러한 긍정적인 분위기가 최근 몇 년간 BYND 주식에 많은 도움을 주지 못했다.

Beyond Meat Inc

On paper, Beyond Meat Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYND#NASDAQ">BYND</a>) seemingly represents one of the more compelling investment opportunities. In 2022, a Deloitte survey revealed that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/penny-stocks/22/07/27981691/90-of-consumers-under-40-report-wanting-healthier-eco-friendlier-options-this-plant-based-br">90% of younger consumers</a> — despite encountering financial constraints — made at least some effort to reduce their environmental impact, including using plant-based foods. Unfortunately, this positive sentiment backdrop hasn't done many favors for BYND stock in recent years.
One major clue that the business isn't clicking is that Beyond continues to march forward with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/41982695/whats-going-on-with-beyond-meat-stock-today">new product innovations</a> but yielding no sustained positive price action in BYND stock. For example, shares temporarily popped higher in November when the company announced its latest product called Beyond Sun Sausage. Unfortunately, the pop was short-lived, with BYND losing about 31% of value in the trailing month.
Another clue is the poor financial performance. It's true that Beyond is paring down its losses per share over the past few quarters. However, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/BYND/earnings">revenue growth has largely declined</a> on a year-over-year basis. And with that, it's hardly surprising that the vast majority of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/BYND/insider-trades">insider transactions</a> have been sales of BYND stock.

<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="1024" height="583" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/20140856/BYND-stock-12202024-1024x583.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-702330" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/20140856/BYND-stock-12202024-1024x583.jpg 1024w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/20140856/BYND-stock-12202024-300x171.jpg 300w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/20140856/BYND-stock-12202024-768x437.jpg 768w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/20140856/BYND-stock-12202024.jpg 1045w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px" /></figure>
Finally, the immediate technical situation is difficult to ignore. Beyond Meat stock struggled to hold onto the critical $5 support line in November and it conspicuously failed to grip the $4 level as well. Even the $3.50 level appears questionable, tempting an options strategy called the bear call spread.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Underwriting the Risk That BYND Stock Will Stay Subdued</h2>
A distinct multi-leg transaction, the <a href="https://help.benzinga.com/en/articles/6332601-bear-call-spread-options-trade">bear call spread</a> — as implied in the name — represents a pessimistic trade. The basic idea is the trader entering the position anticipates the target security to fall in value. However, unlike a "directly" bearish wager, the bear call starts from a cash inflow position.
Structurally, the trader sells a call option for a given expiration date while simultaneously buying a call at a higher strike price. Naturally, the gross debit paid for the long call cuts into the income received from the short call credit. However, buying the long call is important in case the stock moves against the trader (i.e. in the upward direction).
Therefore, the bear call spread features a capped-risk, capped-reward opportunity. Effectively, the speculator is underwriting the risk that the target security will not rise above the breakeven threshold. Ideally, the stock in question will drop to the short call strike or slightly below to collect the maximum reward, which is called the yield.
Generally speaking, the higher the yield, the less likely it is that the bear call spread will pan out successfully for the risk underwriter. At the same time, extremely low yields may pose a significant positional risk due to the amount of capital in danger of incurring the maximum loss.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Targeting the $3.50 Level</h2>
For a quick yield opportunity, traders may consider selling the 3.50/4.00 bear call spread for the options chain expiring Jan. 3, 2025. At the time of writing, the individual process involves selling the $3.50 call at a bid of 20 cents and buying the $4 call at an ask of 12 cents. Applying the options multiplier, the maximum reward is $8 for every $42 at risk or a yield of slightly more than 19%.
While it's not the most exciting reward, the timeframe comes out to only two business weeks. Further, BYND stock needs to fall to $3.50 (or lower) to receive the maximum yield. That's a doable proposition given the security's technical and fundamental woes.
Lastly, while businesses always have a chance at a comeback, Beyond Meat has consistently disappointed its stakeholders. Since the start of the year, BYND has lost about 56% of its value. With insiders not believing in their own stock, it's a gargantuan task to convince outside investors to take the plunge.

(BYND) - Analyzing Beyond Meat's Short Interest

Beyond Meat, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYND#NASDAQ">BYND</a>) shares are up on Thursday following the announcement of its latest product innovation, Beyond Sun Sausage, which is now rolling out <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/11/g41973205/beyond-sun-sausage-expands-to-whole-foods-market" rel="noreferrer noopener">nationwide at Whole Foods Market stores</a>.
This new plant-based sausage expands Beyond Meat&#8217;s product portfolio by offering an alternative that doesn&#8217;t aim to replicate traditional meat products but instead stands as its own protein option.
Unlike Beyond Meat&#8217;s typical offerings, Beyond Sun Sausage has plant-based ingredients such as spinach, bell peppers, yellow pea, brown rice, and red lentils. The product is available in two flavors—Beyond Sun Sausage Pesto, that is now available at all Whole Foods stores, and Beyond Sun Sausage Cajun, available at select locations.
Beyond Sun Sausage offers 12g of protein per link from a blend of plant-based proteins and is made with heart-healthy avocado oil, containing just 1g of saturated fat and no cholesterol.

The product has earned certifications from the American Heart Association&#8217;s Heart-Check program and the American Diabetes Association&#8217;s Better Choices for Life program.
This launch follows Beyond Meat&#8217;s recent health-focused reformulation of its core products, reinforcing the company&#8217;s commitment to providing nutritious, sustainable, and accessible plant-based options.
Earlier this month, the company revised its full-year 2024 revenue outlook from a range of $320 million to $340 million to a new range of <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/41788941" rel="noreferrer noopener">$320 million to $330 million.</a>

Mizuho Maintains Underperform on Beyond Meat, Lowers Price Target to $5

Beyond Meat, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYND#NASDAQ">BYND</a>) is seeing its stock fall Monday. Here&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/08/40234768/beyond-meat-stock-jumps-on-q2-earnings-what-you-need-to-know">what you need to know.</a>
What To Know: In its second-quarter financial results, released last week, Beyond Meat reported a revenue decline of 8.8% year-over-year.
But the company managed to beat Wall Street expectations with $93.2 million in revenue compared to the expected $87.81 million. 
However, the plant-based, vegan meat company reported a slightly larger-than-expected adjusted loss of 53 cents per share, missing estimates of a 51-cent loss.
CEO Ethan Brown expressed optimism, highlighting the company&#8217;s progress in 2024 as a pivotal year toward sustainable operations and profitability. Beyond Meat ended the quarter with $158 million in cash but also reported $1.1 billion in total outstanding debt as of June 29.
What Else: Beyond Meat expects full-year revenue to range between $320 million to $340 million, with a gross margin in the mid-teens range.
Additionally, the stock has caught the attention of options traders, with significant bullish activity spotted. Although analysts remain cautious, with BMO Capital lowering the price target from $9 to $6, the options market has shown a split sentiment, with 50% bullish and 41% bearish trades.
BYND Price Action: As of the latest update, Beyond Meat shares were down 7.12% trading at $5.94, according to<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard"> Benzinga Pro.</a>
