About Hain Celestial

Hain Celestial is a company known for manufacturing and marketing natural and organic food products, beverages, and personal care items. The company operates across several core categories with a significant presence in both North America and international markets.

In recent years, company has undergone executive changes, strategic reviews, and significant financial pressures, all while attempting to implement turnaround strategies and cost-saving measures to address ongoing declines in sales and profitability.

Potential Concerns Under Investigation

Lawyers are investigating whether Hain Celestial may have made misleading statements or omitted key information that was material to investors during a potential class period from May 7, 2025 through Sept. 12, 2025.

Several areas of concern have emerged based on public disclosures and stock price movements.

One major focus is the sharp decline in Hain Celestial’s stock price following specific company announcements. On Sept. 15, 2025, after releasing its Q4 fiscal year 2025 results, the stock fell by approximately 25 percent, closing at around $1.62, a drop of $0.53 from the prior close.

This one-day loss was significant and far exceeded typical market fluctuations, suggesting that the decline was directly tied to company-specific news rather than broader market factors. Similarly, following the prior quarter’s results, Hain Celestial shares dropped about 20 percent.

These steep declines appear to be linked to the company’s own disclosures, including the announcement of a 13 percent revenue decline, significant impairments, and aggressive turnaround measures.

Lawyers may investigate whether Hain Celestial’s management made overly optimistic statements in the months leading up to these disclosures. For example, in the Nov. 7, 2024 earnings release, the CEO stated that Hain Celestial was “positioned for growth” and anticipated “accelerating growth in the back half” of fiscal year 2025.

On Feb. 10, 2025, CEO Wendy Davidson seemingly assured shareholders that new measures would “drive organic net sales growth in the second half of the year."

However, these forward-looking assurances did not reflect the alleged mounting internal problems that later became clear, such as severe sales declines and distribution challenges. Legal professionals might examine if Hain Celestial minimized or selectively disclosed negative trends in its core business.

For instance, during the May 7, 2025 call, Interim CEO Alison Lewis acknowledged a Q3 shortfall but emphasized positive trends in non-U.S. markets and cost savings, while the North America segment was experiencing double-digit organic sales declines.

CFO Lee Boyce also highlighted isolated wins and productivity gains, which may have downplayed the severity of ongoing negative trends. Attorneys could investigate if Hain Celestial adequately disclosed known issues, such as supplier or customer insolvencies and the scale of impending write-offs.

For example, while the company disclosed a large non-cash write-down of its Personal Care business as “held for sale,” there was no advance warning to investors about the magnitude of forthcoming write-offs, which ultimately totaled $252 million in Q4.

The magnitude of the impairments and losses, along with executive turnover and prior regulatory scrutiny, could be relevant to assessing whether management knew or should have known about the issues.
