Author: Nabaparna Bhattacharya | February 07, 2024 12:32pm

The Hain Celestial Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:HAIN) shares are diving on Wednesday after the company announced second quarter fiscal 2024 results.

Quarterly net sales were flat year over year at $454.1 million, missing the analyst consensus of $462.05 million.

North America net sales in the fiscal second quarter were $267.7 million, down 5.2% year over year, owing to lower sales in baby formula stemming from continued industry-wide challenges in organic formula supply.

International net sales in the fiscal second quarter rose 8.5% year over year to $186.4 million, driven by growth in Meal Prep as well as in Beverages.

The adjusted gross profit margin was 23.5%, a 60-basis point increase from the prior year.

Adjusted net income was $10.9 million compared to adjusted net income of $18.3 million in the prior year period. The adjusted net income margin was 2.4%, as compared to 4.0% in the prior year.

The adjusted EBITDA margin was 10.4%, a 60-basis point decrease compared to the prior year’s period.

Adjusted EPS was $0.12, in line with the analyst consensus. 

Net debt at the end of the fiscal second quarter was $755.6 million.

Outlook: Hain Celestial revised FY24 organic net sales growth outlook to approximately 1% or more, compared to previous guidance of 2% to 4% growth.

Adjusted EBITDA is expected between $155 million and $160 million, compared to previous guidance of $155 million to $165 million.

Price Action: HAIN shares are trading lower by 15.43% to $9.59 on the last check Wednesday.
