Hain Celestial Reports Fiscal Third Quarter 2025 Financial Results

/EIN News/ -- HOBOKEN, N.J., May 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Hain Celestial Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: HAIN), a leading global health and wellness company whose purpose is to inspire healthier living through better-for-you brands, today reported financial results for its fiscal third quarter ended March 31, 2025. In a separate release today, the Company announced a CEO transition and strategic review of the Company’s portfolio.

"We are disappointed with our third quarter results, which fell far short of our expectations primarily due to worse-than-expected performance in North America. Despite the shortfall in net sales in the quarter, we are encouraged by a return to organic net sales growth in our international segment and continued progress in reducing net debt,” said Alison Lewis, Interim President and CEO. “Going forward, we are focused on five key drivers for improving value: simplifying our business and reducing overhead spending, accelerating renovation and innovation in our brands, implementing strategic revenue growth management and pricing actions, driving operational productivity and working capital reduction, and strengthening our digital capabilities."

Lewis continued, “While the macroeconomic environment remains challenging, recent regulatory shifts focusing on health and wellness reaffirm Hain’s strength as a pure-play, better-for-you leader. We have a portfolio of strong brands in attractive categories, and we believe the challenges we face are largely within our control. The opportunity ahead of us now is to unlock the full value of our business through focused and disciplined execution."

North America
Fiscal third quarter organic net sales decreased by 10% year-over-year, primarily driven by lower sales in snacks and baby & kids.

Segment gross profit in the fiscal third quarter was $49 million, a decrease of 17% from the prior year period. Adjusted gross profit was $50 million, also a decrease of 17% from the prior year period. Gross margin was 22.1%, unchanged from the prior year period. Adjusted gross margin was 22.4%, a 20-basis point increase from the prior year period. The increase was driven by productivity partially offset by higher trade spend and inflation.

Adjusted EBITDA in the fiscal third quarter was $17 million compared to $28 million in the prior year period. The decrease was primarily driven by lower volume/mix and higher trade spend, partially offset by productivity. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 7.8% compared to 10.4% in the prior year period.  

International
Fiscal third quarter organic net sales growth was 0.5% year-over-year. This was driven by growth in meal prep and baby & kids and the supply chain recovery from the service issues discussed last quarter, partially offset by declines in beverages and snacks.

Segment gross profit in the fiscal third quarter was $35 million, a 5% decrease from the prior year period. Adjusted gross profit was also $35 million, a decrease of 7% from the prior year period. Gross margin and adjusted gross margin were both 21.1%, representing a 90- and 130-basis point decrease from the prior year period, respectively. The decrease in each case was driven by inflation, partially offset by productivity.

Adjusted EBITDA in the fiscal third quarter was $22 million, a decrease of 10% versus the prior year period, driven primarily by inflation and net pricing, inclusive of own label contracts, partially offset by favorable volume/mix. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 13.2%, a 120-basis point decrease from the prior year period.

Snacks
The fiscal third quarter organic net sales decline of 13% year-over-year was driven by lower promotion effectiveness as well as continued category softness.

Baby & Kids
The fiscal third quarter organic net sales decline of 6% year-over-year was driven by lapping formula sales last year at a key retailer which was lost in the spring of 2024, softness in pouches, and the impact of SKU simplification.

Beverages
The fiscal third quarter organic net sales decline of 7% year-over-year was driven by continued channel mix shift in non-dairy beverage in Europe and by our slow start to hot tea season.

Meal Prep
The fiscal third quarter organic net sales growth of 1% was primarily driven by continued growth in soup brands in the UK and growth in yogurt in North America.

CREDIT AGREEMENT AMENDMENT

Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the company and the lenders under the company’s credit agreement have amended the credit agreement to provide for increased operational flexibility. Among other things, the amended credit agreement sets a maximum net secured leverage ratio of 4.75x for the quarter ending June 30, 2025 through (and including) the quarter ending March 31, 2026, 4.50x for the quarter ending June 30, 2026 and 4.25x for the quarter ending September 30, 2026 and thereafter.

FISCAL 2025 GUIDANCE*

“We are adjusting our outlook for the year based on the slower than anticipated volume recovery and the softening and volatile macroeconomic environment, coupled with increased investment in promotional activities to support our brands and drive incremental distribution,” stated Lee Boyce, CFO.

The company is revising guidance for fiscal 2025 as follows:

  • Organic net sales growth is expected to be down approximately 5%-6%.
  • Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be approximately $125 million.
  • Gross margin is expected to be approximately 21.5%.
  • Free cash flow is expected to be approximately $40 million.

* The forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures included in this section are not reconciled to the comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures. The company is not able to reconcile these forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures without unreasonable efforts because the company is unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the type and extent of certain items that would be expected to impact GAAP measures but would not impact the non-GAAP measures. Such items may include certain litigation and related expenses, transaction costs associated with acquisitions and divestitures, productivity and transformation costs, impairments, gains or losses on sales of assets and businesses, foreign exchange movements and other items. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on the company’s GAAP financial results.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release and the accompanying tables include non-GAAP financial measures, including, among others, organic net sales; adjusted gross profit and its related margin; adjusted operating income and its related margin; adjusted net income and its related margin; diluted net income per common share, as adjusted; adjusted EBITDA and its related margin; free cash flow; and net debt. The reconciliations of historic non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures are provided in the tables below. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the comparable GAAP measures. In addition, these non-GAAP measures may not be the same as similar measures provided by other companies due to potential differences in methods of calculation and items being excluded. They should be read only in connection with the company’s consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with GAAP.

We define our non-GAAP financial measures as follows:

  • Organic net sales: net sales excluding the impact of acquisitions, divestitures, held for sale businesses, discontinued brands, exited product categories and foreign exchange. To adjust organic net sales for the impact of acquisitions, the net sales of an acquired business are excluded from fiscal quarters constituting or falling within the current period and prior period where the applicable fiscal quarter in the prior period did not include the acquired business for the entire quarter. To adjust organic net sales for the impact of divestitures, held for sale businesses, discontinued brands and exited product categories, the net sales of a divested business, held for sale business, discontinued brand or exited product category are excluded from all periods. To adjust organic net sales for the impact of foreign exchange, current period net sales for entities reporting in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the average monthly exchange rates in effect during the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year, rather than at the actual average monthly exchange rate in effect during the current period of the current fiscal year.
  • Adjusted gross profit and its related margin: gross profit, before plant closure related costs, net, warehouse and manufacturing consolidation and other costs, net, and other costs.
  • Adjusted operating income and its related margin: operating loss before certain litigation expenses, net, plant closure related costs, net, warehouse and manufacturing consolidation and other costs, net, productivity and transformation costs, costs associated with acquisitions, divestitures and other transactions, goodwill impairment, long-lived asset and intangibles impairment and other costs.
  • Adjusted net income and its related margin and diluted net income per common share, as adjusted: net loss, adjusted to exclude the impact of certain litigation expenses, net, plant closure related costs, net, warehouse and manufacturing consolidation and other costs, net, productivity and transformation costs, costs associated with acquisitions, divestitures and other transactions, (gains) losses on sales of assets, goodwill impairment, long-lived asset and intangibles impairment, unrealized currency losses (gains) and other costs, and the related tax effects of such adjustments.
  • Adjusted EBITDA and its related margin: net loss before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, equity in net loss of equity-method investees, stock-based compensation, net, unrealized currency losses, certain litigation expenses, net, plant closure related costs, net, warehouse and manufacturing consolidation and other costs, net, productivity and transformation costs, costs associated with acquisitions, divestitures and other transactions, (gains) losses on sales of assets, goodwill impairment, long-lived asset and intangibles impairment and other adjustments.
  • Free cash flow: net cash provided by operating activities less purchases of property, plant and equipment.
  • Net debt: total debt less cash and cash equivalents.

We believe that the non-GAAP financial measures presented provide useful additional information to investors about current trends in the company’s operations and are useful for period-over-period comparisons of operations. We provide:

  • Organic net sales to demonstrate the growth rate of net sales excluding the impact of acquisitions, divestitures, held for sale businesses, discontinued brands, and exited product categories and foreign exchange, and believe organic net sales is useful to investors because it enables them to better understand the growth of our business from period to period.
  • Adjusted results as important supplemental measures of our performance and believe they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of our Company and companies in our industry.
  • Free cash flow as one factor in evaluating the amount of cash available for discretionary investments.
  • Net debt as a useful measure to monitor leverage and evaluate the balance sheet.

We discuss the Company’s net secured leverage ratio as calculated under our credit agreement as a measure of our financial condition, liquidity and compliance with our credit agreement. For a description of the material terms of our credit agreement and risks of non-compliance with our credit agreement, see “Liquidity and Capital Resources” under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and “Risk Factors” in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and our subsequent quarterly reports on Form 10-Q filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
