EL SEGUNDO, Calif., Feb. 27, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Beyond Meat, Inc. (NASDAQ:BYND) (“Beyond Meat” or “the Company”), a leader in plant-based meat, today reported financial results for its fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2019.

Fourth Quarter 2019 Financial Highlights Compared to Prior Year Period

Net revenues were $98.5 million, an increase of 212%, compared to net revenues of $31.5 million in the year-ago period;
Gross profit was $33.5 million, or 34.0% of net revenues, compared to gross profit of $7.9 million, or 25.0% of net revenues, in the year-ago period;
Net loss was $0.5 million, or $0.01 per common share, compared to net loss of $7.5 million, or $1.10 per common share in the year-ago period; and
Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, was $9.5 million compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $3.8 million in the year-ago period.

Full Year 2019 Financial Highlights Compared to Prior Year

Net revenues were $297.9 million, an increase of 239%, compared to net revenues of $87.9 million in the prior year;
Gross profit was $99.8 million, or 33.5% of net revenues, compared to gross profit of $17.6 million, or 20.0% of net revenues, in the prior year;

See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for how Beyond Meat defines Adjusted EBITDA and the financial table that accompanies this release for a reconciliation of this measure to the closest comparable GAAP measure.

“Our outstanding fourth quarter and full-year 2019 results are a testament to the vitality of the movement that we continue to lead," said Ethan Brown, Beyond Meat's President and Chief Executive Officer. "With our simple objective of building a perfect piece of meat from plants, our greater mission is much larger than us and seeks to address some of the key challenges of our time—improving health and nutrition, enhancing the sustainability of our global food supply, while lowering our environmental impact, and promoting animal welfare.”

Fourth Quarter 2019
Net revenues increased 212% to $98.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 compared to $31.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2018. Growth in net revenues in the fourth quarter of 2019 was primarily due to an increase in volume sold in Beyond Meat’s Fresh platform products across Retail, and Restaurant and Foodservice channels. Growth in volume sold was driven by increased sales to international customers, expansion in the number of points of distribution, including new strategic customers, higher sales velocities at existing customers, and contribution from new products introduced in 2019.

Gross profit was $33.5 million, or 34.0% of net revenues, in the fourth quarter of 2019, compared to $7.9 million, or 25.0% of net revenues, in the year-ago period. The increase in gross profit and gross margin was primarily due to an increase in the volume of products sold, production efficiency improvements, and more favorable mix as the Company’s Fresh platform contributed a greater proportion of gross revenues in the fourth quarter of 2019 compared to the year-ago period. Temporary disruptions related to capacity expansion projects at two co-manufacturing partners’ plants partially offset the year-over-year improvements in gross margin in the fourth quarter of 2019 and contributed to the sequential decline in gross margin relative to the third quarter of 2019.

Loss from operations in the fourth quarter of 2019 was $0.9 million compared to a loss from operations of $7.1 million in the fourth quarter of the prior year. The narrowed loss from operations in the fourth quarter of 2019 was driven by the year-over-year increase in gross profit, partially offset by higher operating expenses primarily to support the Company’s marketing initiatives, higher stock-based compensation costs, higher restructuring expense, continued investment in innovation, and increased administrative costs associated with being a public company.

Net loss was $0.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2019 compared to a net loss of $7.5 million in the year-ago period. The reduction in net loss was primarily the result of the increase in net revenues and gross profit compared to the fourth quarter of 2018.

Adjusted EBITDA was $9.5 million, or 9.7% of net revenues, in the fourth quarter of 2019 compared to an Adjusted EBITDA loss of $3.8 million, or (11.9%) of net revenues, in the fourth quarter of 2018. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure defined under “Non-GAAP Financial Measures,” and is reconciled to net loss, the closest comparable GAAP measure, at the end of this release.

Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, Mark Nelson commented, “We are pleased with our strong financial results and operating performance in 2019. In 2020, we seek to build on this foundation while continuing to prioritize aggressive growth by increasing our intensity with respect to our marketing and R&D initiatives, and accelerating our global expansion plans to capitalize on our strong positive momentum.”

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Highlights

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents balance was $276.0 million as of December 31, 2019 and total outstanding debt was $30.6 million. Net cash used in operating activities was $47.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2019, compared to $37.7 million for the prior year. Capital expenditures totaled $23.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2019 compared to $22.2 million for the prior year.

2020 Outlook

For the full year 2020, the Company is providing the following guidance and expects:

Net revenues in the range of $490 million to $510 million, an increase of 64% to 71% from 2019;
Gross margin in the range of 33% to 35%; and
Adjusted EBITDA as a % of net revenues approximately equivalent to 2019 levels, as the Company anticipates accelerated investments in marketing, R&D and international expansion initiatives in 2020.

The Company’s 2020 Outlook is based on a number of assumptions that are subject to change and many of which are outside the control of the Company. If actual results vary from these assumptions, the Company’s expectations may change. There can be no assurance that the Company will achieve these results.

The Company does not provide guidance for net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, and similarly cannot provide a reconciliation between its forecasted Adjusted EBITDA and net income metrics without unreasonable effort due to the unavailability of reliable estimates for certain items. These items are not within the Company’s control and may vary greatly between periods and could significantly impact future financial results.

Conference Call and Webcast

The Company will host a conference call and webcast with an accompanying presentation to discuss these results with additional comments and details today at 4:30 p.m. Eastern, 1:30 p.m. Pacific. The conference call webcast will be available live over the Internet through the “Investors” section of the Company’s website at www.beyondmeat.com. Investors interested in participating in the live call can dial 866-221-1171 from the U.S. or 270-215-9602 from international locations. A telephone replay will be available approximately two hours after the call concludes through Friday, March 13, 2020, by dialing 855-859-2056 from the U.S., or 404-537-3406 from international locations, and entering confirmation code 3888678.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Beyond Meat uses the following non-GAAP financial measures in assessing its operating performance and in its financial communications:

“Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as net income (loss) adjusted to exclude, when applicable, income tax expense, interest expense, depreciation and amortization expense, restructuring expenses, share-based compensation expense, inventory losses from termination of an exclusive supply agreement with a co-manufacturer, costs of termination of an exclusive supply agreement with the same co-manufacturer, and expenses primarily associated with the conversion of our convertible notes and remeasurement of our preferred stock warrant liability and common stock warrant liability.

“Adjusted EBITDA as a % of net revenues” is defined as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net revenues.

We use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a % of net revenues because they are important measures upon which our management assesses our operating performance. We use Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a % of net revenues as key performance measures because we believe these measures facilitate operating performance comparison from period-to-period by excluding potential differences primarily caused by the impact of restructuring, asset depreciation and amortization, non-cash share-based compensation and non-operational charges including the impact to cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative expenses related to the termination of an exclusive co-manufacturing agreement, early extinguishment of convertible notes and remeasurement of warrant liability. Because Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a % of net revenues facilitate internal comparisons of our historical operating performance on a more consistent basis, we also use these measures for our business planning purposes. In addition, we believe Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a % of net revenues are widely used by investors, securities analysts, ratings agencies and other parties in evaluating companies in our industry as a measure of our operational performance.

There are a number of limitations related to the use of Adjusted EBITDA rather than net income (loss), which is the most directly comparable GAAP measure. Some of these limitations are:

Adjusted EBITDA excludes depreciation and amortization expense and, although these are non-cash expenses, the assets being depreciated may have to be replaced in the future increasing our cash requirements;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect interest expense, or the cash required to service our debt, which reduces cash available to us;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect income tax payments that reduce cash available to us;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect restructuring expenses that reduce cash available to us;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect share-based compensation expenses and therefore does not include all of our compensation costs;
Adjusted EBITDA does not reflect other income (expense) that may increase or decrease cash available to us; and
other companies, including companies in our industry, may calculate Adjusted EBITDA differently, which reduces its usefulness as a comparative measure.

These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for financial information provided in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures may not be computed in the same manner as similarly titled measures used by other companies.

The following table presents the reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to its most comparable GAAP measure, net loss, as reported (unaudited):
