Rhea-AI Filing Summary

The Hain Celestial Group has completed the sale of its North American Snacks business, including Garden Veggie Snacks™, Terra® chips and Garden of Eatin’® snacks, to Snackruptors Inc. for a total purchase price of $115.0 million, with $111.2 million in cash received at closing.

Hain plans to use the proceeds to reduce debt, with net cash of $101.1 million applied to repay Term Loans, lowering interest expense. The divestiture is described as a first step in refocusing on higher-margin core categories such as yogurt, tea, and baby and kids foods, supported by detailed unaudited pro forma financial statements showing the impact of removing the snacks business.

Positive

  • Debt reduction using sale proceeds: Hain received $111.2 million in cash and plans to use net cash proceeds of $101.1 million to repay Term Loans, with pro forma interest expense reduced by $7.5 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025.
  • Strategic portfolio refocus: The divestiture of the North American Snacks business is described as an important first step toward a simplified North American portfolio centered on higher-margin core categories with stronger margin and cash flow profiles.

Negative

  • Loss on transaction and wider pro forma loss: The company records an estimated $59.3 million loss related to the sale, and pro forma net loss for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025 increases from $530.8 million to $584.3 million.
  • Reduced revenue base: Pro forma adjustments remove $336.0 million of net sales for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025 and $137.3 million for the six months ended December 31, 2025, reflecting the exit from the North American Snacks business.

Insights

Hain sells a major snacks unit, uses over $100M to cut debt and refocus on higher-margin categories.

The Hain Celestial Group completed the sale of its North American Snacks business to Snackruptors for a total purchase price of $115.0 million, receiving $111.2 million in cash after an inventory holdback. This removes a significant snacks portfolio while simplifying the North American business mix.

Net cash proceeds of $101.1 million are earmarked to repay Term Loans, and pro forma statements eliminate $7.5 million of annual interest expense, improving leverage and ongoing financing costs. However, the transaction also generates an estimated $59.3 million loss and reduces net sales in the pro forma fiscal year ended June 30, 2025.

The company positions this divestiture as an “important first step” toward a portfolio centered on higher-margin, better-for-you brands in yogurt, tea, and baby and kids foods. Future filings with periods after December 31, 2025 will show the full impact of the smaller, more focused revenue base and lower debt load.

Exhibit 99.2

Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Information

 

On February 2, 2026, The Hain Celestial Group, Inc. (“Hain”) announced that it had entered into an asset purchase agreement with Snackruptors Inc. (“Snackruptors”) dated as of January 30, 2026 (the “Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which Snackruptors agreed to acquire from Hain its North American Snacks business, including Garden Veggie Snacks™, Terra® chips and Garden of Eatin’® snacks as well as certain private label products, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein (the “Transaction”). On February 27, 2026, Hain completed the Transaction and received $111.2 million in cash, reflecting the total purchase price of $115.0 million less the holdback of an estimate for a customary inventory adjustment, which is subject to finalization following the closing.

 

The Transaction does not meet the criteria requiring the presentation of the business as a discontinued operation in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) and is considered a disposition of a significant business under Item 2.01 of Form 8-K. Hain prepared the accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X.

 

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information is prepared based upon available information and does not include all of the information and note disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. The accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2025 has been prepared giving effect to the Transaction as if it had occurred on December 31, 2025, the end of the most recent period for which a balance sheet is required. The accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated statements of operations for the six months ended December 31, 2025 and fiscal year ended June 30, 2025 give effect to the Transaction as if it had occurred on July 1, 2024.

 

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information is provided for illustrative informational purposes only, has been derived from the historical consolidated financial statements of Hain and is presented based on available information and certain assumptions that Hain believes are reasonable and that are described in the accompanying notes. Differences between these preliminary estimates and the final sale accounting may arise, and these differences could have a material effect on the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information and the Company’s future results of operations and financial position. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information is not necessarily, and should not be assumed to be, an indication of the actual results that would have been achieved had the Transaction been completed as of the dates indicated or that may be achieved in the future.

 

The accompanying unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements should be read together with:

The accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements;
The Company’s historical consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for quarter ended December 31, 2025 (the “Form 10-Q”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on February 9, 2026; and
The Company’s audited historical consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025, filed with the SEC on September 15, 2025.

The pro forma adjustments are described in the accompanying notes and are based upon and derived from information and assumptions available at the time of filing the Current Report on Form 8-K to which these financial statements and related notes are attached as an exhibit.

 

The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information is based on financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which are subject to change and interpretation. The unaudited pro forma consolidated financial statements were based on and derived from our historical consolidated financial statements, adjusted for certain transaction accounting adjustments.

Adjustments to the Unaudited Pro Forma Consolidated Balance Sheet

The following is a description of the pro forma accounting adjustments reflected in the unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet:

(a)
Reflects the removal of the North American Snacks business assets and liabilities that Hain is transferring in connection with the Transaction.
(b)
Reflects $111.2 million of cash consideration received from Snackruptors from the disposal of the North American Snacks business, which reflects the holdback of an estimate for a customary inventory adjustment, which is subject to finalization under the terms of the Purchase Agreement.
(c)
Subsequent to December 31, 2025, Hain anticipates it will incur additional non-recurring costs of approximately $7.7 million to complete the Transaction. These costs primarily relate to transaction advisory and professional fees and will not affect the consolidated statement of operations beyond twelve months after the closing of the Transaction.
(d)
Reflects net cash proceeds of $101.1 million (net of transaction costs and taxes) used to repay a portion of Hain's Term Loans (as defined in the Form 10-Q).
(e)
Reflects an estimated $0.6 million of deferred financing costs expected to be written off in connection with the estimated Term Loan repayment.
(f)
Reflects the income tax effects of the related balance sheet pro forma adjustments resulting from the Transaction. For purposes of presenting the unaudited pro forma consolidated financial information, Hain assumes that federal and state income taxes will be insignificant due to available tax attributes that are expected to fully offset federal and state tax liabilities, and anticipates maintaining a valuation allowance position following the disposition.

(f)
Reflects the income tax effects of the pro forma adjustments calculated using the applicable statutory tax rates in effect within the respective jurisdictions during the periods presented, net of any anticipated impacts to Hain’s U.S. and state valuation allowance position.
