Beyond Meat results preview: what does the Street expect?
While Beyond Meat’s comparative quarter (Q2 2020) benefitted from a surge in sales as pandemic induced fears equated to bulk buying of products, the most recent quarter (Q2 2021) is expected to see supply chain disruptions amidst increased capital investment in product promotions having negatively affected group earnings.
In turn, a high base of comparison meets an increased cost-based to keep earnings firmly within a loss-making territory.
In terms of the upcoming results, a mean of analyst estimates compiled by Refinitiv data arrive at the following:
- Revenue: $140.77 million (+24.2% year on year)
- Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation (EBITDA): -$10.84 million
- Loss per share: $0.23 (+10.87% year on year)

Beyond Meat share price: technical analysis
The Beyond Meat share price has been trading in a broad range for the last nine months, with the lower level of support of this range at 102.00 and the upper level of resistance at 158.20.
In the near term, we see the price falling towards the 117.20 level. A close below this level would consider 102.00 the next downside support target from the move.
