Broken storySelling offAI verdict · as of 2026-08-21

Falling on heavy selling — points lower unless it turns around.

Organic-and-natural-foods leader at 62-cents on the dollar — the tape has essentially given up.

Hain Celestial makes and distributes organic and natural consumer packaged goods — Celestial Seasonings, Terra Chips, Ella's Kitchen, Earth's Best baby food. The category peaked years ago and has been in secular decline as private-label alternatives and direct-to-consumer wellness brands take share.

  • Q3 fiscal revenue was down 13% year-on-year to $338M and Q2 was -6.7% — the top line has been declining for five straight quarters, and the deceleration is accelerating rather than moderating.
  • Trades at ~$57M market cap with -$0.11 TTM P/E — the market has priced this equity as fundamentally impaired; ~0.04x sales says the market thinks the sales base itself is the wrong number to value against.
  • Sits at the 8th percentile of the 52-week range and is 27% below the 200-day trend, -64% over 12 months — the tape has been telegraphing the demand-side break in real time, and the recent Celestial Seasonings wellness-tea launch (Jul 30) hasn't moved the equity.
  • The Aug 17 fiscal Q4 conference call announcement is the next specific event — management has time to reset expectations, though they've had multiple prior chances.

What restarts the move is Sep 14 fiscal Q4 landing revenue year-on-year meaningfully less-negative alongside a specific 2027 fiscal outlook that includes portfolio simplification (divestitures, brand rationalization). What confirms the breakdown is another 10%+ revenue decline or a fresh brand writedown; at $0.62 the equity has minimal downside math protection.

What to watch: Sep 14 fiscal Q4 earnings — revenue trajectory and fiscal 2027 outlook. Watch for any brand-divestiture announcements as the specific management action that could reset the equity story.

Fundamentals & catalyst

Profitability, valuation, and the next earnings event — at a glance, with rule-of-thumb signals.

Key ratios

P/E
-0.1How much investors are paying per dollar of profit the company actually earned in the last 12 months. Lower means the stock looks cheaper relative to earnings.~15–25 is typical for the S&P 500; high-growth names trade 30+; hyper-growth or speculative can be 100+ or negative.
ROIC
3.6%What percentage return the business earns on every dollar of capital (equity + debt) deployed in operations. The cleanest measure of business quality.Above ~15% is high-quality; consistently above 25% suggests a real moat. Below the company's cost of capital is value-destroying.
Op margin
2.2%Operating profit (after sales, marketing, R&D, and overhead but before interest and taxes) as a percentage of revenue. The clearest view of how well the underlying business is run.Mature business above 20% is healthy; software businesses can run 30%+; commodity / retail businesses operate in single digits.
FCF yield
74.1%Free cash flow (operating cash flow minus capex) divided by the company's market cap. The cash-on-cash return you'd get owning the whole business at today's price.Above ~5% is attractive; below ~2% means you're paying up for growth. Capital-light businesses (software) run higher than capital-heavy ones (utilities).
P/S
0.0Same idea as P/E but per dollar of revenue. Useful for companies that aren't profitable yet, where P/E is meaningless.Under ~2 is cheap; software / SaaS often runs 8–15; well above 20 implies the market is pricing in very high future growth.
ROE
-141%Net income as a percentage of shareholders' equity. Similar to ROIC but counts only the equity side.Above 20% is strong, but can be inflated by leverage — a heavily indebted company can show high ROE with weak underlying ROIC.
Gross margin
19.3%Revenue minus the direct cost of producing what was sold, as a percentage of revenue. The first read on whether the product is structurally profitable.Software / SaaS is typically 70%+; consumer goods 30–50%; commodity / hardware businesses can be under 20%.
D/E
2.8Total debt divided by shareholders' equity. Measures how much the business runs on borrowed money versus owner capital.Under 1 is conservative; 1–2 is typical for mature businesses; over 2 is leveraged and more sensitive to interest rates.
