Beyond Meat strikes partnerships with McDonald's and Yum Brands

Wondering whether or not Yum! Brands makes for a smart investment?

Is YUM! Brands Forging Forward In A Choppy Market?

Shares of Beyond Meat gained 3.3% during premarket trading Friday after news of partnerships with two of the largest fast-food chains overshadowed weak fourth-quarter sales.  The stock fell sharply after the Thursday closing bell when the faux-meat maker announced sales in the fourth-quarter were $101.9 million, compared to the average estimate of $103.6 million. But news that Beyond Meat is partnering with both McDonald's Corp. and Yum! Brands cause shares to retrace their losses. Beyond Meat and McDonald's will enter into a three year agreement that will place the faux-meat maker as the preferred supplier for the patty in the McPlant burger. McDonald's and Beyond Meat will also explore co-developing other plant-based menu items like plant-based chicken, pork, and egg substitutes, according to a news release. This announcement solidifies the relationship between Beyond Meat and McDonald's that began in 2019 with a Canadian test run of a plant-based burger. It also clarifies Beyond Meat's role as the supplier for the McPlant patty, which confused investors in November when the McPlant was first announced.
