(NASDAQ: BYND) INVESTOR PRESENTATION September 5, 2019


 
Disclaimer This presentation contains, in addition to historical information, certain forward-looking statements that are based on our current assumptions, expectations and projections about future performance and events and relate to, among other matters, our future financial performance, our business strategy, industry and market trends, future expectations concerning our market position, future operations and capital expenditures. Forward-looking statements generally contain words such as "believes," "expects," "may," "will," "should," "seeks," "approximately," "intends," "plans," "estimates," "anticipates," and other expressions that are predictions of or indicate future events and trends and that do not relate to historical matters. Forward-looking statements are based on information available at the time those statements are made and/or management’s good faith belief as of that time with respect to future events and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations include, among others: our ability to effectively manage our growth; our ability to effectively expand our manufacturing and production capacity; our ability to successfully enter new markets, manage our international expansion and comply with any applicable laws and regulations; the effects of increased competition from our market competitors; the success of our marketing efforts and the ability to grow brand awareness and maintain, protect and enhance our brand; changes in consumer tastes and trends in our industry; changes in government regulations and policies, tax laws and rates; our ability to obtain financing arrangements on terms favorable to us or at all; availability and prices of raw materials for our products; outcomes of legal or administrative proceedings; the financial condition of, and our relationship with our suppliers, co-manufacturers, distributors, retailers and foodservice customers; the ability of our suppliers and co-manufacturers to comply with food safety, environmental or other laws or regulations; and general economic conditions. We are under no duty to update any of these forward-looking statements after the date of this presentation to conform these statements to actual results or revised expectations. You should, therefore, not rely on these forward-looking statements as representing our views as of any date subsequent to the date of this presentation. Our historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future periods and our operating results for the three and six-month periods ended June 29, 2019 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2019 or any other interim periods or any future year or period. This presentation also contains estimates and other statistical data obtained from independent parties and by us relating to market size and growth and other data about our industry and ultimate consumers. The number of retail and restaurant and foodservice outlets are derived from data through July 2019. This data involves a number of assumptions and limitations, and you are cautioned not to give undue weight to such estimates and data. In addition, projections, assumptions and estimates of our future performance and the future performance of the geographic and other markets in which we operate are necessarily subject to a high degree of uncertainty and risk. "The Beyond Burger," "Beyond Beef," "Beyond Chicken," "Beyond Meat," “Beyond Sausage,” "Beyond Breakfast Sausage," "The Cookout Classic," "The Future of Protein" and "The Future of Protein Beyond Meat" and design are registered trademarks of Beyond Meat, Inc. in the United States and, in some cases, in certain other countries. All other brand names or trademarks appearing in this presentation are the property of their respective holders. Solely for convenience, the trademarks and trade names in this presentation are referred to without the ® and ™ symbols, but such references should not be construed as any indicator that their respective owners will not assert, to the fullest extent under applicable law, their rights thereto. Non-GAAP Financial Measures We present Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a % of net revenues to help us describe our operating performance. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a % of net revenues is intended as a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a % of net revenues should not be considered as an alternative to net loss, earnings per share or any other performance measures derived in accordance with GAAP as measures of operating performance or operating cash flows or as measures of liquidity. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed to imply that our future results will be unaffected by these items. See the appendix to this presentation for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as a % of net revenues to net loss and net loss as a % of net revenues. “Adjusted EBITDA” is defined as net 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 SG&A 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 those 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. 1
