    Value Investing BYND Stock

    Value Investing BYND Stock


    BYND Stock

    Posted: 31 Mar 2019 04:10 PM PDT

    Beyond Meat is supposed to IPO this year and as a vegan myself I'm curious if others have also looked into the business. Even if it IPOs at an inflated value, assuming the price stabelizes is anyone interested in also owning this company? Its hard to look into the fundamentals of a private company any tips?

    BYND seems to have a major market share and frankly produces a product which is unrivaled at the consumer level other than impossible foods which only sells to resturantes. They also hold a sizable cash position which they intend to deploy to aquire other brands and from what I've read have low debt. This market share plus their aquisition potential lead me to believe they can be the biggest player in the growing vegan foods industry in the future. They currently run the vegan beef market and their new vegan sausage line is gaining market share fast. With the addition of possibly a vegan dairy line (beyond milk?) Which is currently 11B+ in sales worldwide they can be a juggernaut. With the aquisition or partnership with a company like miyokos creamery (small vegan creamery that makes dairy alternitive which is clearly the best from a quality perspective but lacks in supply chain and resources compared to larger companies like daiay) that would be a dangerous combo to the market.

    Edit: also a good amount of people are dogmatically opposed to veganism and the average investor who has these oppositions to veganism might also allow these biases to have a unreasonably negative outlook when deciding to invest in a company like BYND leading to deflated pricing? Is this possible?

    Last year's financial data: revenue was 88m net loss 30m Total assets 134m total liabilities 56m IPO is set at 100m. Revenue up 104% YoY.

    Competitor garden has comparable sales but less growth.

    CAG which acquired PF recently has has huge growth in revenues this year somewhat due to PFs brand gardein.

    Lyft's 5 Billion Redeemable Convertible Preferred Stock

    Posted: 01 Apr 2019 03:55 AM PDT

    Hi guys I am a little unsure of how preferred stock works, I'd like to verify that I'm understanding these correctly. I've been reading the SEC filing by Lyft.

    There's a section here.

    "The redeemable convertible preferred stock will be automatically converted into common stock at the applicable conversion rate immediately upon the earlier of (1) the closing of a firm commitment underwritten public offering in which the resulting gross proceeds to the Company (before deducting underwriter discounts and commissions) are at least $150,000,000, or (2) the date, or the occurrence of an event, specified by written consent or agreement of the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of redeemable convertible preferred stock voting together as a single class, on an as converted to common stock basis (provided that the approval of certain classes of redeemable convertible preferred stock must be obtained to automatically convert such classes)."

    Does this mean all the preferred stock has now been converted to common stock?

    There's 285,877,300 outstanding common shares and 219,175,709 preferred shares. So... after the conversion there's going to be 505,053,009 outstanding shares. Aren't the existing shareholders going to be massively diluted?

    And this part

    No shares of redeemable convertible preferred stock are unilaterally redeemable by either the stockholders or the Company; however, the Company's Amended Certificate of Incorporation provides that upon any liquidation event such shares shall be entitled to receive the applicable liquidation preference.

    So, the company doesn't have to buy these back?

    Thanks.

    EDIT: Got something wrong.

    New to investing. Looking for some advice to better understand where I should go from here.

    tl;dr - Have a decent starting chunk of stock in McDonald's that seems safe for a long time, but looking for advice on whether I should continue investment into them or to look for other companies that pay out dividends. Or not who knows I have no idea what I'm talking about this was thrust onto me lol

    My grandparents set up a Custodial account about a decade ago and invested about $1500 into McDonalds. The valuation has increased by 400% overtime. I've been watching it for about a month now, and the only trading I've done is buying two more in it, but where should I go from here? I have about $2000 in a cash account that was attached to it from dividends (they never set it to reinvest the dividends). Should I continue investing in McDonalds, or look at other companies that pay out a decent dividend over a long period of time? I'm not looking to day trade or speculate. I'm just looking for advice on what I should do next. The McDonalds stock seems to be doing fine, and doesn't look like itll go anywhere anytime soon, but I also think it'd be smart to diversify just in case it does. Thank you for reading
