Beyond Meat’s stock cratered 17% in morning trading Thursday as Wall Street voiced doubts about the company’s growth prospects.
The plant-based meat maker reported disappointing third-quarter results after the bell on Wednesday. Its loss was wider than expected, while revenue fell short of expectations, even after a warning from the company last month. Beyond also issued a gloomy outlook that indicated sales wouldn’t snap back immediately.
Jefferies called it “the quarter that likely broke the camel’s back.” Bernstein analyst Alexia Howard
