Hain Celestial Reports Fiscal Second Quarter 2025 Financial Results

Strong Operating Cash Flow and Reduction in Debt; Positioned to Pivot to Growth in Back HalfExploring Strategic Options for Personal Care Category HOBOKEN, N.J., Feb. 10, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Hain Celestial Group (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 second quarter ended December 31, 2024. “Despite challenges in the quarter, we generated strong operating cash flow and further reduced debt. We drove sequential improvement in baby & kids and in our largest category, meal prep. However, sales growth in the quarter was hindered by poor in-store performance in snacks, driven by marketing and promotion effectiveness, and supply chain challenges, both of which we have already taken steps to address. We are confident that the actions taken, combined with promotional timing shifts, confirmed distribution gains, and full infant formula supply, will drive organic net sales growth in the second half of the year," said Wendy Davidson, Hain Celestial President and CEO. Davidson continued, “The significant progress we have made towards stabilizing our personal care business is driving sequential improvement in gross margin and in sales trends in our core channels of natural and e-commerce. With the goal of further advancing the Focus pillar of our Hain Reimagined strategy and concentrating our portfolio on better-for-you food & beverages, we are exploring strategic options for our personal care business. We believe this is the best path to focus the organization, simplify our business, and create long-term value for shareholders.” FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS* Summary of Fiscal Second Quarter Results Compared to the Prior Year Period Net sales were $411 million, down 9% year-over-year.

North America The fiscal second quarter organic net sales decrease was 9% year-over-year, driven primarily by lower sales in snacks due to in-store marketing activation and promotion effectiveness as well as by lower sales in personal care. Segment gross profit in the fiscal second quarter was $57 million, a decrease of 8% from the prior year period. Adjusted gross profit was $58 million, a decrease of 13% from the prior year period. Gross margin was 24.8%, a 170-basis point increase from the prior year period. Adjusted gross margin was 25.2%, a 40-basis point increase from the prior year period. The increases were driven by productivity, partially offset by pricing due to higher trade spend on promotional activities and efforts to execute winning portfolio actions. Adjusted EBITDA in the fiscal second quarter was $25 million compared to $31 million in the prior year period. The decrease was driven primarily by pricing and deleverage on lower volume, partially offset by productivity. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 11.0% compared to 11.7% in the prior year period. International The fiscal second quarter organic net sales decline was 4% year-over-year, due primarily to lower sales in meal prep and short-term service challenges. Segment gross profit in the fiscal second quarter was $37 million, a 9% decrease from the prior year period. Adjusted gross profit was also $37 million, a decrease of 9% from the prior year period. Gross margin and adjusted gross margin were both 20.0%, a 150- and 160-basis point decrease from the prior year period, respectively. The decrease in each case was primarily due to inflation, deleverage on lower volumes and mix, partially offset by productivity. Adjusted EBITDA in the fiscal second quarter was $23 million, a decrease of 13% versus the prior year period, as deleverage on lower volume and product mix more than offset productivity. Adjusted EBITDA margin was 12.4%, a 160-basis point decrease from the prior year period.

Snacks The fiscal second quarter organic net sales decline of 13% year-over-year was driven by in-store marketing activation and promotion effectiveness. Baby & Kids The fiscal second quarter organic net sales decline of 1% year-over-year represented an improvement from the fiscal first quarter year-over-year decline of 3% as we regained supply of infant formula in all formulations and sizes. This was offset by the impact of SKU simplification driven by the shift to baby food pouches in the U.S. Beverages Fiscal second quarter organic net sales were down 3% year-over-year, on supply chain ingredient challenges in tea, which have since been resolved, as well as channel mix in non-dairy beverage in Europe. Meal Prep The fiscal second quarter organic net sales decline of 4% year-over-year represented an improvement from the fiscal first quarter decline of 5%. The decline was driven primarily by short-term softness in private label spreads & drizzles, partially offset by growth in yogurt and continued strong growth in the soup brands in both regions. Personal Care The fiscal second quarter organic net sales decline was 38% year-over-year, driven primarily by the impact of SKU simplification initiatives as we continue to focus on the execution of our stabilization plan. FISCAL 2025 GUIDANCE* “Commercial execution and supply chain challenges drove second quarter results that were below our expectations. We have already taken steps to address these challenges and remain focused on disciplined execution. Recent distribution wins and the recovery of our infant formula supply bolster our belief that we are well positioned to pivot to growth in the back half of the year, however given performance to date and the challenging macroeconomic backdrop we are adjusting our full year outlook,” stated Lee Boyce, CFO. The company is revising guidance for fiscal 2025 as follows: Organic net sales growth is expected to be down 2 to 4%.Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be flat year-over-year.Gross margin is expected to increase by at least 90 basis points.Free cash flow is expected to be at least $60 million.* The forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures included in this section are not reconciled to the comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measures.

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, discontinued brands and 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, discontinued brands and exited product categories, the net sales of a divested 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, intangibles and long-lived asset 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, intangibles and long-lived asset impairment, unrealized currency (gains) losses 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 gains, certain litigation and related costs, 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, transaction and integration costs, net, goodwill impairment, intangibles and long-lived asset 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, 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.
