financingmanagementboard

Summary

Beyond Meat, Inc. stockholders approved key corporate actions at a Special Meeting on November 19, 2025. They approved an amendment to the 2018 Equity Incentive Plan, increasing shares authorized for issuance, including for key employee awards. Stockholders also approved a Charter Amendment, effective November 19, 2025, to increase the total authorized Common Stock from 500,000,000 to 3,000,000,000 shares (via Ex. 3.1). This increase supports the conversion of newly issued 7.00% Convertible Senior Secured Second Lien PIK Toggle Notes due 2030 ("New Notes") and the Restated Plan. Additionally, stockholders approved the potential issuance of shares upon conversion of up to $215.0 million in New Notes, which would exceed 20% of outstanding shares.

Why It Matters

The approval to increase authorized Common Stock from 500 million to 3 billion shares and the potential issuance of shares for up to $215.0 million in New Notes (exceeding 20% of outstanding shares) are material. This significantly alters the company's capital structure, enabling future equity-based compensation and debt conversion, which could lead to substantial dilution for existing shareholders.
