7 Food Stocks That Are Leading Through Innovation - 1 of 7

 
 

#1 - Beyond Meat (NASDAQ:BYND)

I haven’t been the biggest fan of Beyond Meat (NASDAQ:BYND), and there are reasons for that. However, there’s no question that plant-based foods are a major trend. And Beyond Meat is the only pure-play stock on this trend.

The company has delivered two consecutive quarters of year-over-year revenue growth in the first and second fiscal quarters of 2020. Investors will be looking to see if the company can continue that trend and also if it can start to become consistently profitable. After reporting positive earnings per share (EPS) of three cents in May, Beyond Meat’s profit turned to a negative two cents per share in its most recent quarter.

It remains to be seen if Beyond Meat will consistently deliver strong revenue as other competitors enter the sector, including some of the major packaged meat companies. However, investors that bought the stock at the beginning of the year and held onto it through the pandemic have been rewarded with a stock that has nearly doubled in price.
