Beyond Meat has lost many investors a lot of money. It may look like it's bargain-priced right now, but it's struggling.
Beyond Meat has eliminated much of its debt and appears set to convert the remaining debt into equity as well. While this has significantly reduced the near-term risk of bankruptcy, it has come at the cost of dilution, leading to further losses for existing shareholders. Beyond Meat's business also continues to struggle, and growth initiatives like product reformulation and consumer education have had little impact.

Beyond Meat (BYND) came out with a quarterly loss of $0.47 per share versus the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of $0.41. This compares to a loss of $0.41 per share a year ago.
