<p>Beyond Meat Inc.’s shares soared 56% in premarket trading Wednesday after the plant-based meat company said it would raise prices and make steep cost cuts to turn around flagging operations.</p>
<p>The surge, which added more than $300 million to the company’s market capitalization, came amid a frenzied short squeeze, with bearish investors down nearly $100 million on paper. Approximately 37.6% of Beyond Meat’s <a href="https://tokenist.com/investing/what-is-float-in-stocks/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="deco-link">free float</a> was shorted as of Tuesday’s close, according to financial data company Ortex. Co-founder Peter Hillerberg <a href="https://money.usnews.com/investing/news/articles/2024-02-28/beyond-meat-soars-as-price-hikes-cost-cuts-plan-squeeze-highly-shorted-shares" target="_blank" aria-label="said (opens in a new tab)" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" class="deco-link">said</a> the squeeze was just beginning.</p>
<p>Beyond Meat’s stock has plunged 60% over the past year as the El Segundo, California-based company grappled with decreased demand attributed to higher prices amid rampant inflation. The company reported a 7.8% decline in fourth-quarter revenue and recently forecast a return to positive margins next year after restructuring efforts. While acknowledging substantial challenges, analysts and management were optimistic about Beyond Meat’s turnaround plans.</p>
