Recent Company History

Over the past five earnings cycles, Hain Celestial has repeatedly reported declining net sales, margin pressure, and sizable net losses, including impairment charges and elevated leverage. Average same-day move was -17.39%, with several sharp selloffs following weak quarters in Q3 2025 and Q4 2025. The current Q2 FY26 report continues themes of lower sales, compressed margins, and net losses, but also shows improved cash generation and stable total debt, extending the turnaround narrative under CEO Alison Lewis.

Historical Analysis

Across five prior earnings reports, average move was -17.39%, mostly sharp selloffs after weak results. Today’s +4.24% pre-news gain contrasts with that pattern despite ongoing sales and margin pressures.

Typical Pattern

Successive earnings have highlighted declining sales, recurring impairment charges, and elevated leverage, while management advances a turnaround via portfolio simplification, pricing, productivity, and cash-flow improvement initiatives.

Analysis

The stock is dropping -22.4% following this news. A negative reaction despite improved cash generation fits a history where earnings highlighted declining sales and persistent losses. Fiscal Q2 2026 net sales fell to $384 million with a net loss of $116 million and gross margin at 19.4%, down 330 basis points. Prior earnings often triggered sizable declines, so continued concern around leverage at 4.9x and margin pressure could reinforce downside moves.

Key Terms

organic net sales, adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, net secured leverage ratio
4 terms
organic net sales financial
"Organic net sales decreased 7% compared to the prior year period."
Organic net sales represent the revenue generated from a company's core business activities, excluding the effects of acquisitions, divestments, or currency changes. It shows how well the company is growing through its existing products and services, similar to tracking how a plant grows from its own roots rather than by adding new plants. Investors use this measure to assess the true growth and health of a company's ongoing operations.
adjusted EBITDA financial
"Adjusted EBITDA was $24 million, compared to $38 million in the prior year period."
Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.
free cash flow financial
"Free cash flow was $30 million in the fiscal second quarter, compared to $25 million in the prior year period."
Free cash flow is the amount of money a company has left over after paying all its expenses and investing in its business, like buying equipment or updating facilities. It shows how much cash is available to reward shareholders, pay down debt, or save for future growth. This helps investors understand if a company is financially healthy and able to grow.
net secured leverage ratio financial
"The company ended the fiscal second quarter with a net secured leverage ratio of 4.9x as calculated under our credit agreement."
A measure of how much secured debt a company has relative to its ability to generate operating cash flow, calculated by taking secured debt minus readily available cash and dividing by a proxy for annual operating cash flow (commonly EBITDA). It matters to investors because it shows how heavily financed a company is with loans backed by assets — like comparing a mortgage balance after savings to your yearly paycheck — and signals credit risk, financial flexibility, and likelihood of meeting loan covenants.

North America
Fiscal second quarter organic net sales decreased by 10% year-over-year, primarily driven by snacks and baby formula, partially offset by growth in beverages.

Segment gross profit and adjusted gross profit were each $41 million in the fiscal second quarter, representing decreases of 28% and 29%, respectively, from the prior year period. Gross margin was 20.6%, a 420-basis point decrease from the prior year period, and adjusted gross margin was 20.8%, a 440-basis point decrease from the prior year period. The decreases in margin were primarily driven by lower volume/mix, cost inflation, and unfavorable fixed cost absorption, partially offset by productivity savings and pricing.

Adjusted EBITDA in the fiscal second quarter was $11 million, compared to $25 million in the prior year period, a decrease of 57%. The decrease was primarily driven by lower gross margins, as discussed above, partially offset by a reduction in SG&A.   Adjusted EBITDA margin was 5.5% of net sales compared to 11.0% of net sales in the prior year period.

International
Fiscal second quarter organic net sales decreased by 3% year-over-year, primarily driven by lower sales in baby & kids. This demonstrates sequential improvement from the 4% decrease year-over-year in organic net sales in the fiscal first quarter of 2026.

Segment gross profit and adjusted gross profit in the fiscal second quarter were both $34 million, each representing an 8% decrease from the prior year period. Gross margin and adjusted gross margin were both 18.1%, each representing a 200-basis point decrease from the prior year period. The decreases in margin were primarily driven by cost inflation, unfavorable fixed cost absorption, and lower volume/mix, partially offset by productivity savings and pricing.

Adjusted EBITDA in the fiscal second quarter was $19 million, compared to $23 million in the prior year period, a decrease of 16%. The decrease was primarily driven by lower gross margins, as discussed above.   Adjusted EBITDA margin was 10.2% compared to 12.4% in the prior year period.

Snacks
The fiscal second quarter organic net sales decline of 20% year-over-year was driven by distribution losses and velocity challenges in North America.

Baby & Kids
The fiscal second quarter organic net sales decline of 14% year-over-year was driven primarily by industry-wide volume softness in purees in the UK and by formula in North America, which was lapping supply recovery from last year.

Beverages
The fiscal second quarter organic net sales increase of 3% year-over-year was driven by growth in tea in North America. This demonstrates acceleration from the 2% year-over-year growth in organic net sales in the fiscal first quarter of 2026.

Meal Prep
The fiscal second quarter organic net sales decline of 1% year-over-year was driven primarily by spreads and drizzles in the UK, partially offset by strength in yogurt in North America.

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 (loss) income and its related margin; diluted net (loss) 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.

  • Adjusted operating income and its related margin: operating loss before goodwill impairment, intangibles and long-lived asset impairment, productivity and transformation costs, costs associated with acquisitions, divestitures and other transactions, plant closure related costs, net, certain litigation expenses, net, and proceeds from insurance claim.

  • Adjusted net (loss) income and its related margin and diluted net (loss) income per common share, as adjusted: net loss, adjusted to exclude the impact of goodwill impairment, intangibles and long-lived asset impairment, productivity and transformation costs, costs associated with acquisitions, divestitures and other transactions, plant closure related costs, net, certain litigation expenses, net, proceeds from insurance claim, (gains) losses on sales of assets, unrealized currency losses (gains) and the related tax effects of such adjustments.

  • Adjusted EBITDA and its related margin: net loss before depreciation and amortization, equity in net loss of equity-method investees, net interest expense, income taxes, stock-based compensation, net, unrealized currency losses (gains), proceeds from insurance claim, certain litigation expenses, net, productivity and transformation costs, plant closure related costs, net, costs associated with acquisitions, divestitures and other transactions, (gains) losses on sales of assets, goodwill impairment and intangibles and long-lived asset impairment.

  • 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.
