Hain Celestial: Debt Overhang Remains After A Mixed Q2 (NASDAQ:HAIN)
Hain Celestial faces a "Sell" recommendation due to persistent margin pressure, weak pricing power, and an overleveraged balance sheet, highlighted by a 7% revenue decline and a 36% EBITDA drop in Q2. While a $115 million Snacks business sale offers temporary debt relief, organic growth limitations and stranded costs hinder long-term deleveraging. The company's negative tangible equity and limited free cash flow suggest ongoing operational challenges, making HAIN shares unattractive for investment.
