Beyond Meat Slips Below $1, Raising Nasdaq Delisting Risk
A reverse split now looks like the near-term fix to keep the Nasdaq listing.
Overview
- Shares trade under $0.70, which is below Nasdaq’s $1 minimum and puts the stock at risk of removal from the exchange.
- Market watchers say a reverse stock split is the most likely step to lift the per‑share price, though it would not change sales, profits, or the company’s total value.
- Management has faced sales and margin pressure and delayed its annual filings to review inventory, signaling more strain on operations.
- The company has discussed diversifying with new protein shakes, but its core meat substitutes have not driven growth and losses per share remain steep.
- The stock briefly jumped more than 1,000% in a meme surge earlier this year, yet it is now down 84% from its 52‑week high and off 16.5% for 2026, and a delisting could spark more selling and make fundraising harder.
