Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP and should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021 (the “Form 10-K”). The amounts as of and for the periods ended June 30, 2021 are derived from the Company’s audited annual financial statements. The unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments which, in management’s opinion, are necessary for a fair presentation for interim periods. Operating results for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2022. Please refer to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements as of June 30, 2021 and for the fiscal year then ended included in the Form 10-K for information not included in these condensed notes.

All amounts in the unaudited consolidated financial statements, notes and tables have been rounded to the nearest thousand, except par values and per share amounts, unless otherwise indicated.

Significant Accounting Policies

The Company's significant accounting policies are described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices, in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Form 10-K. Included herein are certain updates to those policies.

Transfer of Financial Assets

The Company has non-recourse accounts receivable financing arrangements in which eligible receivables are sold to third-party buyers in exchange for cash. The Company transferred accounts receivable in their entirety to the buyers and satisfied all of the conditions to report the transfer of financial assets in their entirety as a sale. The principal amount of receivables sold under these arrangements was $112,607 and $59,871 during the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The incremental cost

9

of accounts receivable financing arrangements is included in Other (income) expense, net in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. The proceeds from the sale of receivables are included in cash provided by operating activities in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, which requires an acquirer to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination on the acquisition date in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as if it had originated the contracts. This approach differs from the current requirement to measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination at fair value. The Company adopted ASU 2021-08 during the second quarter of fiscal year 2022, and the adoption did not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by reference rate reform. ASU 2020-04 is currently effective and upon adoption may be applied prospectively to contract modifications made on or before December 31, 2022. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope, which clarifies certain provisions in Topic 848, if elected by an entity, to apply to derivative instruments that use an interest rate for margining, discounting, or contract price alignment that is modified as a result of reference rate reform. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2022, the Company adopted the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections as applicable as additional changes in the market occur.

There were 508 and 4 restricted stock awards excluded from our calculation of diluted net income per share for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, as such awards were anti-dilutive. There were 275 and 182 restricted stock awards excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, as such awards were anti-dilutive.

Additionally, 231 and 23 stock-based awards outstanding at March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, as such awards were contingently issuable based on market or performance conditions, and such conditions had not been achieved during the respective periods. There were 541 and 957 stock-based awards outstanding at March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, that were excluded from the calculation of diluted net income per share for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, as such awards were contingently issuable based on market or performance conditions.

Share Repurchase Program

In June 2017, August 2021 and January 2022, the Company's Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $250,000, $300,000 and $200,000 of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock, respectively. Share repurchases under the 2021 and 2022 authorizations commenced after the previous authorizations were fully utilized. Repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market, pursuant to pre-set trading plans, in private transactions or otherwise. The current 2022 authorization does not have a stated expiration date. The extent to which the Company repurchases its shares and the timing of such repurchases will depend upon market conditions and other corporate considerations. In November 2021, the Company entered into a share repurchase agreement with affiliates of Engaged Capital, LLC (collectively, the “Selling Stockholders”), pursuant to which the Company repurchased 1,700 shares directly from the Selling Stockholders at a price of $45.00 per share (see Note 19, Related Party Transactions). During the nine months ended March 31, 2022, the Company repurchased 10,126 shares under the repurchase program, inclusive of the shares repurchased from the Selling Stockholders, for a total of $395,821, excluding commissions, at an average price of $39.09 per share. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had $186,579 of remaining authorization under the share repurchase program. During the nine months ended March 31, 2021, the Company repurchased 2,408 shares under the repurchase program for a total of $80,255, excluding commissions, at an average price of $33.33 per share.

4.     ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS

That's How We Roll

On December 28, 2021, the Company acquired all outstanding stock of THWR, the producer and marketer of ParmCrisps® and Thinsters®, deepening the Company's position in the snacking category. Consideration for the transaction consisted of cash, net of cash acquired, totaling $260,871, subject to an adjustment for working capital. Of the total consideration, $260,474 was paid with the remaining $397 payable as of March 31, 2022. The acquisition was funded with borrowings under the Credit Agreement (as defined in Note 9, Debt and Borrowings). The Company incurred $5,103 of transaction costs in connection with the acquisition which were expensed as incurred, and are included as a component of Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2022.

The following table summarizes the Company's preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective estimated fair values on the acquisition date. The Company expects to finalize the allocation during fiscal 2022.

	March 31, 2022
Accounts receivable, net	$	5,107
Inventory	9,871
Prepaid expenses and other current assets	542
Property, plant & equipment	9,198
Identifiable intangible assets	193,800
Operating lease right-of-use assets	3,676
Other assets	164
Deferred income taxes	(42,252)
Goodwill	94,071
Accounts payable & accrued expenses	(9,082)
Operating lease liabilities	(4,225)
	$	260,870

The fair values assigned to identifiable intangible assets acquired were based on assumptions and estimates made by management. Of the $193,800 of identifiable intangible assets acquired, $70,800 was preliminarily assigned to customer relationships with a weighted average estimated useful life of 17 years, and $123,000 was preliminarily assigned to tradenames with indefinite lives. The goodwill recorded as a result of this acquisition is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

Results of THWR are included in the United States operating segment, a component of the North America reportable segment. THWR's net sales included in our consolidated results were 5.0% and 1.8% of consolidated net sales for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022.

The following table provides unaudited pro forma results of continuing operations had the acquisition been completed at the beginning of fiscal 2021. The proforma information reflects certain adjustments related to the acquisition but does not reflect any potential operating efficiencies or cost savings that may result from the acquisition. Accordingly, this information has been provided for illustrative purposes only and does not purport to be indicative of the actual results that would have been achieved by the Company for the periods presented or that will be achieved by the combined company in the future. The pro forma information has been adjusted to give effect to items that are directly attributable to the transactions and are expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results.

(1)The pro forma adjustments include the elimination of transaction costs totaling $5,103 from the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and recognition of those costs in the nine months ended March 31, 2021. Additionally, the pro forma adjustments include the elimination of integration costs and a fair value inventory adjustment totaling $1,500 and $1,800, respectively, for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 and recognition of those costs in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021.

Dispositions

GG UniqueFiber®

On June 28, 2021, the Company completed the divestiture of its crispbread crackers business, GG UniqueFiber® (“GG”) for total cash consideration of $336. The sale of GG is consistent with the Company’s transformation and portfolio simplification process. GG operated in Norway and was part of the Company’s International reportable segment. The Company deconsolidated the net assets of GG during the twelve months ended June 30, 2021, recognizing a pre-tax loss on sale of $3,753 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021.

Dream® and WestSoy®

On April 15, 2021, the Company completed the divestiture of its North America non-dairy beverages business, consisting of the Dream® and WestSoy® brands, for total cash consideration of $33,000, subject to customary post-closing adjustments. The final purchase price was $31,320. The non-dairy beverage business was considered to be non-core within our broader North American business, and the sale aligns with the Company’s portfolio simplification process. The business operated out of the United States and Canada and was part of the Company’s North America reportable segment. The Company deconsolidated the net assets of the North American non-dairy beverage business during the twelve months ended June 30, 2021, recognizing a pre-tax gain on sale of $7,519 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021.

Fruit

In August 2020, the Company's Board of Directors approved a plan to sell its prepared fresh fruit, fresh fruit drinks and fresh fruit desserts division ("Fruit"), primarily consisting of the Orchard House® Foods Limited business and associated brands. This decision supported the Company's overall strategy as the Fruit business did not align, and had limited synergies, with the rest of the Company's businesses. The Fruit business operated in the U.K. and was part of the Company’s International reportable segment. The Company determined that the held for sale criteria was met and classified the assets and liabilities of the Fruit business as held for sale as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2020, recognizing a pre-tax non-cash loss to reduce the carrying value to its estimated fair value less costs to sell of $56,093 during the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The sale was completed on January 13, 2021 for a total cash consideration of $38,547, recognizing a pre-tax loss on sale of $1,904 during the third quarter of fiscal 2021.

Danival

The Company entered into a definitive stock purchase agreement on June 30, 2020 for the sale of its Danival business, a component of the International reportable segment, and the transaction closed on July 21, 2020. The Company deconsolidated the net assets of the Danival business upon closing of the sale during the quarter ended September 30, 2020, recognizing a pre-tax gain on sale of $611 during the first quarter of fiscal 2021.

Discontinued Operations

Sale of Tilda Business

On August 27, 2019, the Company sold the entities comprising the Tilda Group Entities and certain other assets of the Tilda business for an aggregate price of $342,000 in cash, subject to customary post-closing adjustments based on the balance sheets of the Tilda business. The disposition of the Tilda operating segment represented a strategic shift that had a major impact on the Company’s operations and financial results and has been accounted for as discontinued operations. Net income from discontinued operations, net of tax in our Consolidated Statements of Operations was nil for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 as well as for the nine months ended March 31, 2022. The following table presents the major classes of Tilda’s results within Net income from discontinued operations, net of tax in our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2021:

7.    LEASES

The Company leases office space, warehouse and distribution facilities, manufacturing equipment and vehicles primarily in North America and Europe. The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The Company’s lease agreements generally do not contain residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

Some of the Company’s leases contain variable lease payments, which are expensed as incurred unless those payments are based on an index or rate. Variable lease payments based on an index or rate are initially measured using the index or rate in effect at lease commencement and included in the measurement of the lease liability; thereafter, changes to lease payments due to rate or index changes are recorded as variable lease expense in the period incurred. The Company does not have any related party leases, and sublease transactions are de minimis.

On December 22, 2021, the Company refinanced its revolving credit facility by entering into a Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides for senior secured financing of $1,100,000 in the aggregate, consisting of (1) $300,000 in aggregate principal amount of term loans (the "Term Loans") and (2) an $800,000 senior secured revolving credit facility (which includes borrowing capacity available for letters of credit, and is comprised of a $440,000 U.S. revolving credit facility and $360,000 global revolving credit facility) (the "Revolver"). Both the Revolver and the Term Loans mature on December 22, 2026. As of March 31, 2022, there were $538,000 of loans under the Revolver, $298,125 of Term Loans, and $8,919 letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement provides that loans will bear interest at rates based on (a) the Eurodollar Rate plus a rate ranging from 0.875% to 1.75% per annum or (b) the Base Rate plus a rate ranging from 0.00% to 0.75% per annum, the relevant rate being the Applicable Rate. The Applicable Rate will be determined in accordance with a leverage-based pricing grid, as set forth in the Credit Agreement. Swing Line Loans and Global Swing Line Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars will bear interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate, and Global Swing Line Loans denominated in foreign currencies shall bear interest based on (a) the Euro Short Term Rate, or €STR, in the case of such loans denominated in Euros plus the Applicable Rate, (b) the Sterling Overnight Index Average Reference Rate, or SONIA, in the case of such loans denominated in Sterling plus the Applicable Rate or (c) the Canadian Prime Rate plus the Applicable Rate. The weighted average interest rate on outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement at March 31, 2022 was 1.67%. Additionally, the Credit Agreement contains a Commitment Fee on the amount unused under the Credit Agreement ranging from 0.15% to 0.25% per annum, and such Commitment Fee is determined in accordance with a leverage-based pricing grid.

The Credit Agreement includes maintenance covenants that will require compliance with a consolidated interest coverage ratio, a consolidated secured leverage ratio and a consolidated leverage ratio. As of March 31, 2022, $253,081 was available under the Credit Agreement, and the Company was in compliance with all associated covenants.

In connection with the Credit Agreement, the Company and its material domestic subsidiaries entered into an Amended and Restated Security and Pledge Agreement (the “Security Agreement”), pursuant to which all of the obligations under the Credit Agreement will be secured by liens on assets of the Company and its material domestic subsidiaries, including the equity interests in each of their direct subsidiaries and intellectual property, subject to agreed-upon exceptions.

Credit Agreement Issuance Costs

Based on the Company's evaluation of the borrowing capacity associated with the creditors participating in the previous facility compared to those in the Credit Agreement, $1,762 of the $2,036 of unamortized deferred financing costs at December 22, 2021 were deferred and the remaining $274 were expensed as a component of Interest and other financing expense, net on our Consolidated Statement of Operations. Additionally, the Company incurred debt issuance costs of approximately $2,764 in connection with the Credit Agreement. Of the total $4,526 of deferred debt issuance costs, $3,292 were associated with the Revolver and are being amortized on a straight-line basis within Other assets on our Consolidated Balance Sheet, and $1,234 are being amortized on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest method, as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the Term Loans as a component of Interest and other financing expense, net on our Consolidated Statement of Operations over the term of the Credit Agreement.

10.    INCOME TAXES

In general, the Company uses an estimated annual effective tax rate, which is based on expected annual income and statutory tax rates in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates, to determine its quarterly provision for income taxes. Certain significant or unusual items are separately recognized in the quarter in which they occur and can be a source of variability on the effective tax rates from quarter to quarter. The Company’s effective tax rate may change from period-to-period based on recurring and non-recurring factors including the geographical mix of earnings, enacted tax legislation, state and local income taxes and tax audit settlements.

The effective income tax rate from continuing operations was an expense of 23.7% and 25.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The effective income tax rate from continuing operations was an expense of 20.3% and 55.5% for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The effective income tax rate from continuing operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 was impacted by the reversal of uncertain tax position accruals based on filing and approval of certain elections by taxing authorities, deductions related to stock-based compensation, non-deductible transaction costs related to the acquisition of THWR (see Note 4, Acquisitions and Dispositions), the reversal of a valuation allowance due to the utilization of a capital loss carryover and the finalization of fiscal year 2021 U.S. income tax returns. The effective income tax rate from continuing operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2021 was negatively impacted by various discrete items including the tax impact of the United Kingdom Fruit business reserve, the legal entity reorganization, and the U.K. rate change. The effective income tax rates in each period were also impacted by the geographical mix of earnings and state valuation allowance.

The income tax benefit from discontinued operations was nil for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, while the income tax from discontinued operations was nil and a benefit of $11,320 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, respectively. The benefit for income tax for the nine months ended March 31, 2021 was impacted by a legal entity reorganization.

12.    STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION AND INCENTIVE PERFORMANCE PLANS

The Company has a stockholder-approved plan, the Amended and Restated 2002 Long-Term Incentive and Stock Award Plan (the "2002 Plan"), under which the Company’s officers, senior management, other key employees, consultants and directors may be granted equity-based awards. The Company also grants shares under its 2019 Equity Inducement Award Program (the "2019 Inducement Program") to induce selected individuals to become employees of the Company. The 2002 Plan and 2019 Inducement Program are collectively referred to as the "Stock Award Plans." In conjunction with the Stock Award Plans, the Company maintains a long-term incentive program (the “LTI Program” or "LTIP") that provides for equity awards, including performance and market-based equity awards that can be earned over defined performance periods. The Company's plans are described in Note 14, Stock-Based Compensation and Incentive Performance Plans, in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Form 10-K.

Compensation cost and related income tax benefits recognized in the Consolidated Statements of Operations for stock-based compensation plans were as follows:

Restricted Stock

Awards of restricted stock are either restricted stock awards ("RSAs") or restricted stock units ("RSUs") that are issued at no cost to the recipient. Performance-based or market-based RSUs are issued in the form of performance share units ("PSUs"). A summary of the restricted stock activity (including all RSAs, RSUs and PSUs) for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 is as follows:

	Number of Shares and Units	Weighted Average Grant Date Fair  Value (per share)
Non-vested RSAs, RSUs and PSUs outstanding at June 30, 2021	1,780	$	16.55
Granted	828	$	44.70
Vested	(1,579)	$	15.58
Forfeited	(158)	$	25.26
Non-vested RSAs, RSUs and PSUs outstanding at March 31, 2022	871	$	43.54

The table above includes a total of 190 shares granted during the nine months ended March 31, 2022 that represent the target number of shares that may be earned based on pre-defined market conditions that are eligible to vest ranging from zero to 200% of target. All such shares relate to the 2022-2024 LTIP as further described below. Granted shares also include 56 shares that may be earned based on certain performance-based metrics being met. Vested shares during the nine months ended March 31, 2022 include a total of 1,299 shares under the 2019-2021 LTIP that vested at 100% of target based on achievement of target absolute total shareholder return ("TSR") levels, and a total of 13 shares granted in a previous period that vested based on certain performance-based metrics being met.

The fair value of RSAs, RSUs and PSUs granted and of shares vested, and the tax benefit recognized from restricted shares vesting was as follows:

	Nine Months Ended March 31,
	2022		2021
Fair value of RSAs, RSUs and PSUs granted	$	37,005	$	7,298
Fair value of shares vested	$	71,285	$	12,266
Tax benefit recognized from restricted shares vesting	$	3,643	$	1,786

At March 31, 2022, there was $29,787 of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to non-vested restricted stock awards which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.2 years.

2022-2024 LTIP

During the nine months ended March 31, 2022, the Company granted market-based PSU awards under the LTI Program with a total target payout of 190 shares of common stock. At March 31, 2022, 175 of such shares were outstanding. Vesting is pursuant to a defined calculation of either relative TSR or absolute TSR (as defined) over the period from November 18, 2021 through the earlier of (i) November 17, 2024; (ii) the date the participant’s employment is terminated due to death or Disability (as defined); or (iii) the effective date of a Change in Control (as defined) (the “TSR Performance Period”). Vesting of 117 target shares of the outstanding PSU awards is pursuant to a defined calculation of relative TSR over the TSR Performance Period (the “Relative TSR PSUs”). Vesting of 58 target shares of the outstanding PSU awards is pursuant to the achievement of pre-established three-year compound annual TSR targets over the TSR Performance Period (the “Absolute TSR PSUs”). Total shares eligible to vest for both the Relative TSR PSUs and Absolute TSR PSUs range from zero to 200% of the target amount. Grant date fair values are calculated using a Monte-Carlo simulation model with grant date fair values per target share and related valuation assumptions as follows:

22

	Absolute TSR PSUs		Relative TSR PSUs
Grant date fair value (per target share)	$39.51		$60.99
Risk-free interest rate	0.84	%	0.84	%
Expected dividend yield	—		—
Expected volatility	36.90	%	24.20	%

13.    INVESTMENTS

On October 27, 2015, the Company acquired a minority equity interest in Chop’t Creative Salad Company LLC, predecessor to Founders Table Restaurant Group, LLC (“Founders Table”). Founders Table owns and operates the fast-casual restaurant chains Chop't Creative Salad Co. and Dos Toros Taqueria. The investment is being accounted for as an equity method investment due to the Company’s representation on the Board of Directors of Founders Table. At March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021, the carrying value of the Company’s investment in Founders Table was $9,808 and $10,699, respectively, and is included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as a component of Investments and joint ventures.

The Company also holds the following investments: (a) Hutchison Hain Organic Holdings Limited, a joint venture with HUTCHMED (China) Limited, accounted for under the equity method of accounting, (b) Hain Future Natural Products Private Ltd., a joint venture with Future Consumer Ltd, accounted for under the equity method of accounting, and (c) Yeo Hiap Seng Limited, in which the Company holds a less than 1% equity ownership interest. The carrying value of these combined investments was $6,248 and $6,218 as of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively, and is included in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as a component of Investments and joint ventures.

14.    FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS MEASURED AT FAIR VALUE

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value are required to be grouped in one of three levels. The levels prioritize the inputs used to measure the fair value of the assets or liabilities. These levels are:

•Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

•Level 2 – Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

•Level 3 – Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).

The following table presents assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2022: 

	Total		Quoted prices in active markets (Level 1)		Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)		Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)
Assets:
Derivative financial instruments	$	2,698	$	—	$	2,698	$	—
Equity investment	603		603		—		—
Total	$	3,301	$	603	$	2,698	$	—
Liabilities:
Derivative financial instruments	$	3,841	—		$	3,841	—
Total	$	3,841	$	—	$	3,841	$	—

23

The following table presents assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2021:

	Total		Quoted prices in active markets (Level 1)		Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)		Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)
Assets:
Derivative financial instruments	$	699	$	—	$	699	$	—
Equity investment	646		646		—		—
Total	$	1,345	$	646	$	699	$	—
Liabilities:
Derivative financial instruments	11,968		—		11,968		—
Total	$	11,968	$	—	$	11,968	$	—

The equity investment consists of the Company’s less than 1% investment in Yeo Hiap Seng Limited, a food and beverage manufacturer and distributor based in Singapore. Fair value is measured using the market approach based on quoted prices. The Company utilizes the income approach to measure fair value for its foreign currency forward contracts. The income approach uses pricing models that rely on market observable inputs such as yield curves, currency exchange rates and forward prices.

There were no transfers of financial instruments between the three levels of fair value hierarchy during the nine months ended March 31, 2022 or 2021.

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, net, accounts payable and certain accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these financial instruments. The Company’s debt approximates fair value due to the debt bearing fluctuating market interest rates (see Note 9, Debt and Borrowings).

In addition to the instruments named above, the Company makes fair value measurements in connection with its interim and annual goodwill and tradename impairment testing and accounting for acquisitions. These measurements fall into Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy (See Note 8, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets).

Derivative Instruments

The Company uses interest rate swaps to manage its interest rate risk and cross-currency swaps and foreign currency exchange contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. The fair values of interest rate swaps are determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts (or payments) and the discounted expected variable cash payments (or receipts). The variable cash payments (or receipts) are based on an expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves.

In accordance with the provisions of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, the Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both the Company’s nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of the Company’s derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, the Company has considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts and guarantees.

Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. The Company has determined that the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments made to its derivative contracts, which determination was based on the fair value of each individual contract, was not significant to the overall valuation. As a result, all of the derivatives held as of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021 were classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

24

The fair value estimates presented in the fair value hierarchy tables above are based on information available to management as of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021. These estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts we could ultimately realize.

15.    DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources and duration of its assets and liabilities and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company’s receivables and borrowings.

Certain of the Company’s foreign operations expose the Company to fluctuations of foreign exchange rates. These fluctuations may impact the value of the Company’s cash receipts and payments in terms of the Company’s functional currency. The Company enters into derivative financial instruments to protect the value or fix the amount of certain assets and liabilities in terms of its functional currency, the U.S. Dollar.

Accordingly, the Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage and mitigate such risks. The Company does not use derivatives for speculative or trading purposes.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing variable rate debt.

For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in AOCL and subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported in AOCL related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable rate debt. During the remaining three months of fiscal 2022, the Company estimates that an additional $301 will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had the following outstanding interest rate derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk:

Interest Rate Derivative	Number of Instruments	Notional Amount
Interest Rate Swap	4	$230,000

Cash Flow Hedges of Foreign Exchange Risk

The Company is exposed to fluctuations in various foreign currencies against its functional currency, the U.S. Dollar. The Company uses foreign currency derivatives including cross-currency swaps to manage its exposure to fluctuations in the USD-EUR exchange rates. Cross-currency swaps involve exchanging fixed-rate interest payments for fixed-rate interest receipts, both of which will occur at the USD-EUR forward exchange rates in effect upon entering into the instrument. The Company, at times, also uses forward contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations in the GBP-EUR exchange rates. The Company designates these derivatives as cash flow hedges of foreign exchange risk.

For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of foreign exchange risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in AOCL and subsequently reclassified in the period(s) during which the hedged transaction affects earnings within

25

the same income statement line item as the earnings effect of the hedged transaction. During the remaining three months of fiscal 2022, the Company estimates that an additional $47 relating to cross-currency swaps will be reclassified as a decrease to interest expense.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had the following outstanding foreign currency derivatives that were used to hedge its foreign exchange risk:

Foreign Currency Derivative	Number of Instruments	Notional Sold	Notional Purchased
Cross-currency swap	1	€24,700	$26,775
Foreign currency forward contract	3	£2,515	€3,000

Net Investment Hedges

The Company is exposed to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates on investments it holds in its European foreign entities and their exposure to the Euro. The Company uses fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swaps to hedge its exposure to changes in the foreign exchange rate on its foreign investment in Europe. Currency forward agreements involve fixing the USD-EUR exchange rate for delivery of a specified amount of foreign currency on a specified date. The currency forward agreements are typically cash settled in U.S. Dollars for their fair value at or close to their settlement date. Cross-currency swaps involve the receipt of functional-currency-fixed-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making foreign-currency fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreement.

For derivatives designated as net investment hedges, the gain or loss on the derivative is reported in AOCL as part of the cumulative translation adjustment. Amounts are reclassified out of AOCL into earnings when the hedged net investment is either sold or substantially liquidated.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had the following outstanding foreign currency derivatives that were used to hedge its net investments in foreign operations:

Foreign Currency Derivative	Number of Instruments	Notional Sold	Notional Purchased
Cross-currency swap	2	€76,969	$83,225

Non-Designated Hedges

Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and are used to manage the Company’s exposure to interest rate movements and other identified risks but do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements and/or the Company has not elected to apply hedge accounting. Changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated in hedging relationships are recorded directly in earnings.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had no outstanding derivatives that were not designated as hedges in qualifying hedging relationships.

17.    COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Securities Class Actions Filed in Federal Court

On August 17, 2016, three securities class action complaints were filed in the Eastern District of New York (the "District Court") against the Company alleging violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The three complaints are: (1) Flora v. The Hain Celestial Group, Inc., et al. (the “Flora Complaint”); (2) Lynn v. The Hain Celestial Group, Inc., et al. (the “Lynn Complaint”); and (3) Spadola v. The Hain Celestial Group, Inc., et al. (the “Spadola Complaint” and, together with the Flora and Lynn Complaints, the “Securities Complaints”). On June 5, 2017, the District Court issued an order for consolidation, appointment of Co-Lead Plaintiffs and approval of selection of co-lead counsel. Pursuant to this order, the Securities Complaints were consolidated under the caption In re The Hain Celestial Group, Inc. Securities Litigation (the “Consolidated Securities Action”), and Rosewood Funeral Home and Salamon Gimpel were appointed as Co-Lead Plaintiffs. On June 21, 2017, the Company received notice that plaintiff Spadola voluntarily dismissed his claims without prejudice to his ability to participate in the Consolidated Securities Action as an absent class member. The Co-Lead Plaintiffs in the Consolidated Securities Action filed a Consolidated Amended Complaint on August 4, 2017 and a Corrected Consolidated Amended Complaint on September 7, 2017 on behalf of a purported class consisting of all persons who purchased or otherwise acquired Hain Celestial securities between November 5, 2013 and February 10, 2017 (the “Amended Complaint”). The Amended Complaint named as defendants the Company and certain of its former officers (collectively, “Defendants”) and asserted violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 based on allegedly materially false or misleading statements and omissions in public statements, press releases and SEC filings regarding the Company’s business, prospects, financial results and internal controls. Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Amended Complaint on October 3, 2017 which the District Court granted on March 29, 2019, dismissing the case in its entirety, without prejudice to replead. Co-Lead Plaintiffs filed a Second Amended Consolidated Class Action Complaint on May 6, 2019 (the “Second Amended Complaint”). The Second Amended Complaint again named as defendants the Company and certain of its former officers and asserts violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 based on allegations similar to those in the Amended Complaint, including materially false or misleading statements and omissions in public statements, press releases and SEC filings regarding the Company’s business, prospects, financial results and internal controls. Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint on June 20, 2019. On April 6, 2020, the District Court granted Defendants' motion to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint in its entirety, with prejudice. Co-Lead Plaintiffs appealed the District Court’s decision dismissing the Second Amended Complaint to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit (the "Second Circuit"). By decision dated December 17, 2021, the Second Circuit vacated the District Court’s judgment and remanded the case for further proceedings. On April 6, 2022, the District Court issued an order directing the parties to submit position papers outlining their views regarding: (a) the scope of the Court's reconsideration of Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss the Second Amended Complaint; and (b) the appropriate procedure the Court should follow in light of the Second Circuit's opinion. On April 14, 2022, the District Court entered an order setting the schedule for, and determining the scope of, supplemental briefing on Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss the Second Amended Complaint, which is due to be fully briefed on or before June 23, 2022.

Additional Stockholder Class Action and Derivative Complaints Filed in Federal Court

On April 19, 2017 and April 26, 2017, two class action and stockholder derivative complaints were filed in the Eastern District of New York against the former Board of Directors and certain former officers of the Company under the captions Silva v. Simon, et al. (the “Silva Complaint”) and Barnes v. Simon, et al. (the “Barnes Complaint”), respectively. Both the Silva Complaint and the Barnes Complaint allege violation of securities law, breach of fiduciary duty, waste of corporate assets and unjust enrichment.

31

On May 23, 2017, an additional stockholder filed a complaint under seal in the Eastern District of New York against the former Board of Directors and certain former officers of the Company. The complaint alleged that the Company’s former directors and certain former officers made materially false and misleading statements in press releases and SEC filings regarding the Company’s business, prospects and financial results. The complaint also alleged that the Company violated its by-laws and Delaware law by failing to hold its 2016 Annual Stockholders Meeting and includes claims for breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment and corporate waste. On August 9, 2017, the District Court granted an order to unseal this case and reveal Gary Merenstein as the plaintiff (the “Merenstein Complaint”).

On August 10, 2017, the District Court granted the parties' stipulation to consolidate the Barnes Complaint, the Silva Complaint and the Merenstein Complaint under the caption In re The Hain Celestial Group, Inc. Stockholder Class and Derivative Litigation (the “Consolidated Stockholder Class and Derivative Action”) and to appoint Robbins Arroyo LLP and Scott+Scott as Co-Lead Counsel, with the Law Offices of Thomas G. Amon as Liaison Counsel for Plaintiffs. On September 14, 2017, a related complaint was filed under the caption Oliver v. Berke, et al. (the “Oliver Complaint”), and on October 6, 2017, the Oliver Complaint was consolidated with the Consolidated Stockholder Class and Derivative Action. The Plaintiffs filed their consolidated amended complaint under seal on October 26, 2017. On December 20, 2017, the parties agreed to stay Defendants’ time to answer, move, or otherwise respond to the consolidated amended complaint through and including 30 days after a decision was rendered on the motion to dismiss the Amended Complaint in the Consolidated Securities Action, described above.

On March 29, 2019, the District Court in the Consolidated Securities Action granted Defendants’ motion, dismissing the Amended Complaint in its entirety, without prejudice to replead. Co-Lead Plaintiffs in the Consolidated Securities Action filed the Second Amended Complaint on May 6, 2019. The parties to the Consolidated Stockholder Class and Derivative Action agreed to continue the stay of Defendants’ time to answer, move, or otherwise respond to the consolidated amended complaint through 30 days after a decision on Defendants' motion to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint in the Consolidated Securities Action.

On April 6, 2020, the District Court granted Defendants’ motion to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint in the Consolidated Securities Action, with prejudice. Pursuant to the terms of the stay, Defendants in the Consolidated Stockholder Class and Derivative Action had until May 6, 2020 to answer, move, or otherwise respond to the complaint in this matter. This deadline was extended, and Defendants moved to dismiss the Consolidated Stockholder Class and Derivative Action Complaint on June 23, 2020, with Plaintiffs’ opposition due August 7, 2020.

On July 24, 2020, Plaintiffs made a stockholder litigation demand on the current Board containing overlapping factual allegations to those set forth in the Consolidated Stockholder Class and Derivative Action. On August 10, 2020, the District Court vacated the briefing schedule on Defendants’ pending motion to dismiss in order to give the Board of Directors time to consider the demand. On each of September 8 and October 8, 2020, the District Court extended its stay of any applicable deadlines for 30 days to give the Board of Directors additional time to complete its evaluation of the demand. On November 3, 2020, Plaintiffs were informed that the Board of Directors had finished investigating and resolved, among other things, that the demand should be rejected. On November 6, 2020, Plaintiffs and Defendants notified the District Court that Plaintiffs were evaluating the rejection of the demand, sought certain additional information and were assessing next steps, and requested that the District Court extend the stay for an additional 30 days, to on or around December 7, 2020. The Parties then filed a number of additional joint status reports, requesting that the District Court continue the stay of applicable deadlines through December 30, 2021. In light of the Second Circuit vacating the District Court’s judgment in the Consolidated Securities Action referenced above and remanding the case for further proceedings, the Parties submitted a joint status report on December 29, 2021 requesting that the District Court continue the temporary stay pending the District Court’s reconsideration of the Defendants’ motion to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint in the Consolidated Securities Action. The District Court has extended the temporary stay through December 30, 2022.

Baby Food Litigation

Since February 2021, a large number of consumer class actions have been brought against the Company alleging that the Company’s Earth’s Best baby food products (the “Products”) contain unsafe and undisclosed levels of various naturally occurring heavy metals, namely lead, arsenic, cadmium and mercury. There are currently 29 active lawsuits, which generally allege that the Company violated various state consumer protection laws and make other state and common law warranty and unjust enrichment claims related to the alleged failure to disclose the presence of these metals and that consumers would have allegedly either not purchased the Products or would have paid less for them had the Company made adequate disclosures. These putative class actions seek to certify a nationwide class of consumers as well as various state subclasses. One of the consumer class actions (Kathryn Gavula, et al. v. Beech-Nut Nutrition Co., et al.) filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Oregon alleges that the Company violated the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (“RICO”) by conspiring

32

with other baby food manufacturers to conceal the presence of these heavy metals in our respective products. These actions have been filed against all of the major baby food manufacturers in federal courts across the country. The U.S. Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation (“JPML”) declined a request to centralize all of the consumer class action lawsuits against all of the baby food manufacturers into a single multidistrict proceeding, and all but one of these cases against the Company have now been transferred and consolidated in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York into a proceeding captioned In re Hain Celestial Heavy Metals Baby Food Litigation, Case No. 2:21-cv-678 (the "Consolidated Proceeding"). The Court appointed interim class counsel for Plaintiffs in the Consolidated Proceeding, and Plaintiffs filed a Consolidated Amended Class Action Complaint on March 18, 2022. The Company intends to file a motion to dismiss the Consolidated Amended Class Action Complaint, but no briefing schedule has been set. One consumer class action is pending in New York Supreme Court, Nassau County. The Company has moved to stay or transfer this case to the Consolidated Proceeding and that motion is pending. The Company denies the allegations in these lawsuits and contends that its baby foods are safe and properly labeled.

The claims raised in these lawsuits were brought in the wake of a highly publicized report issued by the U.S. House of Representatives Subcommittee on Economic and Consumer Policy on Oversight and Reform, dated February 4, 2021 (the “House Report”), addressing the presence of heavy metals in baby foods made by certain manufacturers, including the Company. Since the publishing of the House Report, the Company has also received information requests with respect to the advertising and quality of its baby foods from certain governmental authorities, as such authorities investigate the claims made in the House Report. The Company is fully cooperating with these requests and is providing documents and other requested information. The Company has been named in one civil government enforcement action, State of New Mexico ex rel. Balderas v. Nurture, Inc., et al., which was filed by the New Mexico Attorney General against the Company and several other manufacturers based on the alleged presence of heavy metals in their baby food products. The Company and several other manufacturers moved to dismiss the New Mexico Attorney General’s lawsuit, which motion the Court denied. The Company filed its answer to the New Mexico Attorney General’s amended complaint on April 23, 2022. The Company denies the New Mexico Attorney General’s allegations and maintains that its baby foods are safe, properly labeled, and compliant with New Mexico law.

In addition to the consumer class actions discussed above, the Company is currently named in five lawsuits in state and federal courts alleging some form of personal injury from the ingestion of the Company’s Products, purportedly due to unsafe and undisclosed levels of various naturally occurring heavy metals. Three of these lawsuits name multiple plaintiffs alleging claims of physical injuries. These lawsuits generally allege injuries related to neurological development disorders such as autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. The Company denies that its Products led to any of these injuries and will defend the cases vigorously.

Other

In addition to the litigation described above, the Company is and may be a defendant in lawsuits from time to time in the normal course of business.

With respect to all litigation and related matters, the Company records a liability when the Company believes it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. For the matters disclosed in this note, if the Company determines that a liability is probable and the loss can be reasonably estimated, the Company discloses the liability recorded. As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company has not recorded a liability for any of the matters disclosed in this note. It is possible that some matters could require the Company to pay damages, incur other costs or establish accruals in amounts that could not be reasonably estimated as of the end of the period covered by this report.

18.    SEGMENT INFORMATION

Our organization structure consists of two geographic based reportable segments: North America and International. Our North America reportable segment consists of the United States and Canada as operating segments. Our International reportable segment is comprised of three operating segments: United Kingdom, Ella’s Kitchen UK and Europe. This structure is in line with how our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) assesses our performance and allocates resources.

We use segment net sales and operating income to evaluate performance and to allocate resources. We believe these measures are most relevant in order to analyze segment results and trends. Segment operating income excludes certain general corporate expenses (which are a component of selling, general and administrative expenses), impairment and acquisition related expenses, restructuring, integration and other charges.

Item 2.        Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the related Notes thereto for the period ended March 31, 2022 contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. Forward-looking statements in this Form 10-Q are qualified by the cautionary statement included in this Form 10-Q under the sub-heading “Forward-Looking Statements” in the introduction of this Form 10-Q.

Overview

The Hain Celestial Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (collectively, along with its subsidiaries, the “Company,” and herein referred to as “Hain Celestial,” “we,” “us” and “our”), was founded in 1993 and is headquartered in Lake Success, New York. The Company’s mission has continued to evolve since its founding, with health and wellness being the core tenet. The Company continues to be a leading marketer, manufacturer and seller of organic and natural, "better-for-you" products by anticipating and exceeding consumer expectations in providing quality, innovation, value and convenience. The Company is committed to growing sustainably while continuing to implement environmentally sound business practices and manufacturing processes. Hain Celestial sells its products through specialty and natural food distributors, supermarkets, natural food stores, mass-market and e-commerce retailers, food service channels and club, drug and convenience stores in over 80 countries worldwide. The Company operates under two reportable segments: North America and International.

The Company manufactures, markets, distributes and sells organic and natural products under brand names providing consumers with the opportunity to lead A Healthier Way of Life®. Hain Celestial's food and beverage brands include Celestial Seasonings®, Clarks™, Cully & Sully®, Earth’s Best®, Ella’s Kitchen®, Frank Cooper’s®, Garden of Eatin’®, Hain Pure Foods®, Hartley’s®, Health Valley®, Imagine®, Joya®, Lima®, Linda McCartney's® (under license), MaraNatha®, Natumi®, New Covent Garden Soup Co.®, ParmCrisps®, Robertson’s®, Rose's® (under license), Sensible Portions®, Spectrum®, Sun-Pat®, Terra®, The Greek Gods®, Thinsters®, Yorkshire Provender® and Yves Veggie Cuisine®. Hain Celestial’s personal care brands include Alba Botanica®, Avalon Organics®, JASON®, Live Clean®, and Queen Helene®.

Our previous strategy, which we refer to as Hain 2.0, was executed under four key pillars—(1) simplify our portfolio; (2) strengthen our capabilities; (3) expand profit margins and cash flow; and (4) reinvigorate profitable topline growth. This strategy has laid the foundation for Hain 3.0, our vision and strategy for the next several years, which is about building a global healthy food and beverage company with industry-leading top line growth. We believe Hain 3.0 positions us as an advantaged and differentiated company, as compared to others in the food industry for several reasons:

•we are singularly focused on health and wellness,

•we are a global company in high-growth categories with opportunities for expansion in existing and new channels and geographies,

•we have unique and advantaged brands with strong points of difference, and

•given our size, small wins can drive material incremental growth.

We have re-segmented the brand portfolio with a more global view to where we have the most growth potential. As a result, we have migrated from a strategy focused on rejuvenating North America behind a construct of “Get Bigger" and "Get Better” brand categories to one that focuses on growing global brands in categories where we think we have the most potential. The categories we have identified are called Turbocharge, Targeted Investment, and Fuel:

•The Turbocharge brands are leading-share brands in very high-growth categories. The Turbocharge brands are made up of plant-based meat and non-dairy beverages as well as snacks. Our meat and dairy alternatives are concentrated outside the United States, while the snacks businesses include brands both within the United States and in International.

•The Targeted Investment brands are made up of leading-share brands in lower-growth categories. To date, we have demonstrated our ability to drive market share and reinvigorate these categories, and we expect that we can continue to do this in the future. The Targeted Investment brands are made up of tea, baby, yogurt, and personal care. In contrast with Hain 2.0, baby is now one of our growth focus areas, due to its strong brands, scale, profitability, and growth prospects.

•The Fuel brands are stable brands that will be leveraged to fuel investment in the Turbocharge and Targeted Investment categories. Fuel brands are made up of premium pantry brands with scale, in categories such as soup, cooking oils and nut butters.

36

Additionally, as part of Hain 3.0, we will continue to simplify our brand portfolio as we continue to identify brands that are declining and have low margins. The Simplify brands are subscale declining businesses that have limited long-term potential for the Company, and therefore will be managed for profit until they are potentially divested, likely over the course of the next several years. Acquisitions are expected to play a role in Hain 3.0 and part of our capital allocation strategy is focused on actively looking for targets in the market. As we continue to simplify and stabilize the organization and consolidate sales into fewer priority categories, we are well-positioned and expect to make targeted acquisitions supported by our borrowing capacity to help us further strengthen our position in those categories.

COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a net increase in overall demand for our products. The impact was particularly pronounced during the early stages of the pandemic as consumers reacted to stay-at-home measures and the uncertainty of the pandemic. In particular, our net sales during the third quarter of fiscal 2020 through the second quarter of fiscal 2021 benefited from pandemic-driven demand. The pandemic-driven demand for our products has subsided as effective vaccines have become available, governments have eased safety measures and consumer purchasing behaviors have started to return to pre-pandemic norms.

The pandemic and the measures being taken by governments, businesses and consumers to limit the spread of COVID-19 have led to operational challenges in our business and may result in broader and longer-term challenges and uncertainty that we will need to manage successfully. Such challenges include but are not limited to:

•manufacturing, supply chain and logistics challenges resulting from health and safety precautions among our employees and the general population as well as macroeconomic factors resulting from the pandemic, including labor market shortages;

•an uncertain future demand environment as a result of changing consumer behaviors amid uncertain economic conditions; and

•increased costs of operating our business and managing our supply chain during a global pandemic, driven by well-publicized industry-wide inflation, supply chain and labor challenges.

Russia-Ukraine War

Although we have no material assets in Russia, Belarus or Ukraine, our supply chain was adversely impacted by the Russia-Ukraine war during the three months ended March 31, 2022, and we continue to face other challenges and risks arising from the war. In particular, the war has added significant costs to existing inflationary pressures through increased fuel and raw material prices and labor costs. Further, beyond increased costs, labor challenges and other factors have led to supply chain disruptions. While, to date, we have been able to identify replacement raw materials where necessary, we have incurred increased costs in doing so. For example, the supply of sunflower oil has become constrained, compelling us to identify and procure alternative oils. The war has also negatively impacted consumer sentiment, particularly in Europe, with some consumers shifting to lower-priced products, which has somewhat affected demand for our products. Additionally, we face increased cybersecurity risks, as companies based in the United States and its allied countries have become targets of malicious cyber activity. While we are continuing to monitor and manage the impacts of the war on our business, the extent to which the Russia-Ukraine war and the related economic impact may affect our financial condition or results of operations remains uncertain.

Acquisition

On December 28, 2021, the Company acquired all outstanding stock of Proven Brands, Inc. (and its subsidiary That's How We Roll LLC) and KTB Foods Inc., collectively doing business as "That's How We Roll" ("THWR"), the producer and marketer of ParmCrisps® and Thinsters®. The acquisition of these two fast-growing, better-for-you brands deepens the Company's position in the snacking category and represents a significant step in establishing the Company as a high-growth, global healthy food company. See Note 4, Acquisitions and Dispositions, in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for additional details.

Discontinued Operations

On August 27, 2019, the Company and Ebro Foods S.A. (the “Purchaser”) entered into, and consummated the transactions contemplated by, an agreement relating to the sale and purchase of the entities comprising the Company’s Tilda operating segment and certain other assets.

The Company's dispositions are described in more detail in Note 5, Dispositions, in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Form 10-K.

Net Sales

Net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were $502.9 million, an increase of $10.3 million, or 2.1%, as compared to $492.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021. On a constant currency basis, adjusted for the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and discontinued brands, net sales increased approximately $7.2 million, or 1.5%, from the prior year quarter driven by growth in the North America reportable segment offset by a decline in the International reportable segment. Further details of changes in net sales by segment are provided below in the Segment Results section.

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $115.7 million, a decrease of $14.2 million, or 10.9%, as compared to the prior year quarter. Additionally, gross profit margin of 23.0% was lower when compared with the prior year quarter. The decrease in gross profit was driven primarily by the International reportable segment, mainly due to lower net sales in the United Kingdom and Europe operating segments, as well as higher energy and supply chain costs when compared to the prior year period, partially offset by higher net sales in the Ella's Kitchen UK operating segment. The North America reportable segment also had a decrease in gross profit mainly due to inflationary and supply chain challenges, such as continued industry-wide distribution and warehousing cost pressures driven by labor shortages, freight carrier availability and other freight cost issues, as well as lower net sales in the Canada operating segment when compared with the prior year period.

38

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $75.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, an increase of $1.4 million, or 1.9%, from $74.3 million for the prior year quarter. The increase was primarily driven by the North America reportable segment offset in part by the International reportable segment and Corporate and Other. The United States operating segment accounted for the increase in the North America reportable segment due to the acquisition of THWR. The increase was partially offset by a decrease in people-related expenses as well as efficiencies gained from the Company's productivity and transformation initiatives.

Amortization of Acquired Intangible Assets

Amortization of acquired intangibles was $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, an increase of $1.0 million from $2.1 million in the prior year quarter due to the acquisition of THWR in the current fiscal year, partially offset by lower amortization expense in the current year period as a result of prior year dispositions that occurred in the later part of fiscal 2021.

Productivity and Transformation Costs

Productivity and transformation costs were $1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, a decrease of $2.8 million from $4.5 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease was primarily due to reduced spending related to productivity and transformation initiatives as the current transformation effort approaches its conclusion.

Operating Income

Operating income for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $35.2 million compared to $49.6 million in the prior year quarter as a result of the items described above.

Interest and Other Financing Expense, Net

Interest and other financing expense, net totaled $3.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, an increase of $1.2 million, or 58.8%, from $2.0 million in the prior year quarter. The increase resulted primarily from a higher outstanding debt balance driven primarily by the acquisition of THWR in the prior quarter as well as share repurchase activity. See Note 9, Debt and Borrowings, in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Other (Income) Expense, Net

Other income, net totaled $0.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022, compared to other expense, net totaling $1.6 million in the prior year quarter. The change to income from expense was primarily attributable to a loss on the sale of the Fruit business, which occurred in the prior year quarter with no comparable loss in the current year quarter.

Income from Continuing Operations Before Income Taxes and Equity in Net Loss (Income) of Equity-Method Investees

Income from continuing operations before income taxes and equity in net loss (income) of our equity-method investees for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $32.7 million compared to $46.0 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease was due to the items discussed above.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes includes federal, foreign, state and local income taxes. Our income tax expense from continuing operations was $7.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 compared to an income tax expense of $11.8 million in the prior year quarter.

The effective income tax rate from continuing operations was an expense of 23.7% and 25.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The effective income tax rate from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was impacted by deductions related to stock-based compensation and the finalization of fiscal year 2021 income tax returns. The effective income tax rate from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was impacted by various discrete items including the finalization of fiscal year 2020 U.S. income tax returns.

39

Equity in Net Loss (Income) of Equity-Method Investees

Our equity in net loss (income) from our equity-method investments for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was a loss of $0.4 million and income of $0.1 million in the prior year quarter. See Note 13, Investments, in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Net Income

Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $24.5 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, compared to $34.3 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, in the prior year quarter. The decrease was attributable to the factors noted above.

Adjusted EBITDA

Our Adjusted EBITDA was $58.7 million and $73.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, as a result of the factors discussed above and the adjustments described in the Reconciliation of Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures to U.S. GAAP Measures presented following the discussion of our results of operations.

Segment Results

The following table provides a summary of net sales and operating income (loss) by reportable segment for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021:

North America

Our net sales in the North America reportable segment for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were $325.7 million, an increase of $38.2 million, or 13.3%, from net sales of $287.5 million in the prior year quarter. On a constant currency basis, adjusted for the impact of an acquisition, net sales increased by 8.5%. In the United States operating segment, adjusted sales were higher compared to the prior year quarter mainly due to stronger sales in snacks, baby, personal care and other product categories. In the Canada operating segment, adjusted sales decreased compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to lower sales in personal care product categories. Operating income in North America for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $28.5 million, a decrease of $11.0 million from $39.5 million in the prior year quarter. The decrease in operating income was mainly driven by inflationary and supply chain challenges, such as continued industry-wide distribution and warehousing cost pressures driven by labor shortages, freight carrier availability and other freight cost issues, as well as lower net sales in the Canada operating segment when compared with the prior year quarter.

40

International

Our net sales in the International reportable segment for the three months ended March 31, 2022 were $177.2 million, a decrease of $27.9 million, or 13.6%, from net sales of $205.1 million in the prior year quarter. Foreign exchange and divestitures reduced net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2022. On a constant currency basis, adjusted for the impact of divestitures, net sales decreased 8.2% from the prior year quarter primarily due to a decline in sales in the Europe and United Kingdom operating segments, partially offset by an increase in sales in the Ella's Kitchen UK operating segment. The net sales decrease in the Europe operating segment was primarily due to the loss of a large non-dairy co-manufacturing customer. The net sales decrease in the United Kingdom was due to lower sales in plant-based, soup and puddings resulting from lower total store sales and the impact of shipment halts during the price increase negotiations with certain customers. The net sales increase in the Ella's Kitchen UK operating segment was due to higher sales coming out of the COVID-19 pandemic, since Ella's Kitchen UK sales were negatively impacted in the prior year quarter due to a slow-down in consumer demand for baby food as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic stay-at-home requirements and sales pull back in the second quarter of the prior year due to Brexit (e.g. the sales were made the second quarter of the prior year rather than the third quarter of the prior year). Operating income in our International reportable segment for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $18.3 million, a decrease of $8.5 million from operating income of $26.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. Operating income was lower in the current quarter when compared to the prior year quarter mainly due to lower gross profit resulting from a decline in sales, as well as higher energy and supply chain costs.

Corporate and Other

Our Corporate and Other category consists of expenses related to the Company’s centralized administrative functions, which do not specifically relate to an operating segment. Such Corporate and Other expenses are comprised mainly of compensation and related expenses of certain of the Company’s senior executive officers and other employees who perform duties related to our entire enterprise as well as expenses for certain professional fees, acquisition and divestiture transaction costs, facilities, and other items which benefit the Company as a whole. Our operating loss in Corporate and Other for the three months ended March 31, 2022 was $11.7 million, a decrease of $5.0 million, from operating loss of $16.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021. This change was primarily due to lower employee-related expenses, partially offset by higher baby food litigation expenses.

Net Sales

Net sales for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 were $1,434.8 million, a decrease of $84.9 million, or 5.6%, as compared to $1,519.6 million in the nine months ended March 31, 2021. On a constant currency basis, adjusted for the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and discontinued brands, net sales decreased approximately $4.3 million, or 0.3%, from the prior comparable period driven by the International reportable segment, partially offset by the North America reportable segment. Further details of changes in net sales by segment are provided below in the Segment Results section.

42

Gross Profit

Gross profit for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 was $338.4 million, a decrease of $40.6 million, or 10.7%, as compared to the prior year comparable period. Gross profit margin was 23.6% of net sales, compared to 24.9% in the prior year comparable period. The decrease in gross profit was driven primarily by the North America reportable segment as a result of both the United States and Canada operating segments which were impacted by higher costs associated with inflationary and supply chain challenges, such as continued industry-wide distribution and warehousing cost pressures driven by labor shortages, freight carrier availability and other freight cost issues. Additionally, the decrease in gross profit was due to lower net sales in the Canada operating segment when compared with the prior year period. The International reportable segment gross profit also decreased due to both the United Kingdom and Europe operating segments partially offset by increased gross profit in the Ella's Kitchen UK operating segment. The decrease in gross profit in the Europe and United Kingdom operating segments was due to lower net sales and higher delivery and warehousing costs while the increased gross profit in the Ella's Kitchen UK operating segment was due to higher net sales than the prior year period due to a slow-down in consumer demand for baby food in the prior year period as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic stay-at-home requirements which negatively impacted prior year net sales.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $229.9 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, a decrease of $8.6 million, or 3.6%, from $238.5 million for the prior year comparable period. The decrease was driven by a decrease in the International and North America reportable segments, partially offset by an increase in Corporate and Other as a result of higher transaction costs incurred in fiscal year 2022 including costs related to the acquisition of THWR, advisory costs related to the divestiture by affiliates of Engaged Capital, LLC of their shares of the Company's common stock, as well as higher litigation expenses related to the baby food litigation described in Note 17, Commitments and Contingencies. The decrease in the International reportable segment was primarily due to (1) the sale of the Fruit business in the third quarter of the prior year with no comparable selling, general and administrative expenses in the current year, (2) lower broker commissions in the Europe operating segment, and (3) lower people-related expenses. The decrease in the North America reportable segment was primarily due to lower people-related expenses.

Amortization of Acquired Intangible Assets

Amortization of acquired intangibles was $7.3 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, an increase of $0.5 million from $6.8 million in the prior year comparable period due to the acquisition of THWR in the current fiscal year, partially offset by lower amortization in the current year period as a result of prior year dispositions that occurred in the later part of fiscal 2021.

Productivity and Transformation Costs

Productivity and transformation costs were $8.4 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, a decrease of $2.4 million from $10.9 million in the prior year comparable period. The decrease was primarily due to reduced spending related to productivity and transformation initiatives as the current transformation effort approaches its conclusion.

Long-lived Asset and Intangibles Impairment

During the nine months ended March 31, 2022, the Company recognized a pre-tax impairment charge of $0.3 million related to a facility in the United Kingdom. During the nine months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recognized a pre-tax impairment charge of $57.7 million primarily related to a reduction in the carrying value to the estimated fair value, less costs to sell, for the United Kingdom fruit business (see Note 4, Acquisitions and Dispositions, in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q).

Operating Income

Operating income for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 was $92.7 million compared to $65.8 million in the prior year comparable period as a result of the items described above.

43

Interest and Other Financing Expense, Net

Interest and other financing expense, net totaled $7.7 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, an increase of $0.9 million, or 12.5%, from $6.8 million in the prior year comparable period. The increase resulted primarily due to higher outstanding debt balances driven primarily by the THWR acquisition and share repurchase activity, partially offset by lower variable interest rates applied to borrowings outstanding under the Company's revolving credit facility. See Note 9, Debt and Borrowings, in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Other Income, Net

Other income, net totaled $10.6 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, compared to $0.9 million in the prior year comparable period. The increase in income was primarily attributable to the gain on sale of assets related to the sale of undeveloped land plots in Boulder, Colorado resulting in a gain of $8.7 million with no comparable gain in the prior year period.

Income from Continuing Operations Before Income Taxes and Equity in Net Loss of Equity-Method Investees

Income from continuing operations before income taxes and equity in net loss of our equity-method investees for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 was income of $95.6 million compared to $59.8 million in the prior year comparable period. The increase was due to the items discussed above.

Provision for Income Taxes

The provision for income taxes includes federal, foreign, state and local income taxes. Our income tax expense from continuing operations was $19.4 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 compared to $33.2 million in the prior year comparable period.

The effective income tax rate from continuing operations was an expense of 20.3% and 55.5% for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The effective income tax rate from continuing operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 was impacted by the reversal of uncertain tax position accruals based on filing and approval of certain elections by taxing authorities, deductions related to stock-based compensation, non-deductible transaction costs related to acquisition of THWR, the reversal of a valuation allowance due to the utilization of a capital loss carryover, and the finalization of fiscal year 2021 U.S. income tax returns. The effective income tax rate from continuing operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2021 was negatively impacted by various discrete items including the tax impact of the United Kingdom fruit business reserve, the legal entity reorganization and the U.K. rate change.

Equity in Net Loss of Equity-Method Investees

Our equity in net loss from our equity-method investments for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 was $1.4 million compared to $1.0 million in the prior year comparable period. See Note 13, Investments, in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Net Income from Continuing Operations

Net income from continuing operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 was $74.8 million, or $0.79 per diluted share, compared to net income of $25.6 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, for the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The change was attributable to the factors noted above.

Net Income from Discontinued Operations, Net of Tax

Net income from discontinued operations, net of tax, for the nine months ended March 31, 2021 was $11.3 million, or $0.11 per diluted share. During the nine months ended March 31, 2021, the Company recognized an $11.3 million adjustment to the Tilda business primarily related to the recognition of a deferred tax benefit. There was no comparable line item for the nine months ended March 31, 2022.

See Note 4, Acquisitions and Dispositions, in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for further discussion.

44

Net Income

Net income for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 was $74.8 million, or $0.79 per diluted share, compared to $36.9 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, in the prior year comparable period. The change was attributable to the factors noted above.

Adjusted EBITDA

Our Adjusted EBITDA was $165.2 million and $190.8 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively, as a result of the factors discussed above and the adjustments described in the Reconciliation of Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures to U.S. GAAP Measures presented following the discussion of our results of operations.

North America

Our net sales in the North America reportable segment for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 were $866.3 million, an increase of $15.5 million, or 1.8%, from net sales of $850.8 million in the prior year comparable period. On a constant currency basis, adjusted for the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and discontinued brands, net sales increased by 2.6% due to increased sales in the United States operating segment as a result of stronger sales in certain snack products and baby food in the current year period partially offset by decreased sales in the Canada operating segment. Operating income in North America for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 was $72.5 million, a decrease of $32.7 million from $105.2 million in the prior year comparable period. The decrease was mainly driven by higher cost of goods sold in the United States operating segment largely because of inflationary and supply chain challenges, such as continued industry-wide distribution and warehousing cost pressures driven by labor shortages, freight carrier availability and other freight cost issues; and lower sales in the Canada operating segment, partially offset by lower selling, general and administrative expenses in both the United States and Canada operating segments. Lower selling, general and administrative expenses were mainly due to lower marketing and people-related expense.

Our net sales in the International reportable segment for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 were $568.5 million, a decrease of $100.4 million, or 15.0%, from net sales of $668.9 million in the prior year comparable period. On a constant currency basis, adjusted for the impact of divestitures and discontinued brands, net sales decreased 4.4% from the prior year comparable period mainly due to lower sales in the Europe and United Kingdom operating segments, partially offset by higher sales in the Ella's Kitchen UK operating segment. Ella's Kitchen UK net sales improved during the nine months ended March 31, 2022 compared to the prior year period due to a slow-down in consumer demand for baby food in the prior year period as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic stay-at-home requirements which negatively impacted prior year net sales. Operating income in our International reportable segment for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 was $69.7 million, an increase of $61.6 million from operating income of $8.1 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The increase mainly reflected non-recurring charges associated with the fruit business impairment that was recognized in the prior year period. In addition, the International reportable segment incurred lower selling, general and administrative expenses for the reasons noted above.

Corporate and Other

Our Corporate and Other category consists of expenses related to the Company’s centralized administrative functions, which do not specifically relate to an operating segment. Such Corporate and Other expenses are comprised mainly of compensation and related expenses of certain of the Company’s senior executive officers and other employees who perform duties related to our entire enterprise as well as expenses for certain professional fees, acquisition and divestiture transaction costs, facilities, and other items which benefit the Company as a whole. Our operating expenses in Corporate and Other for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 were $49.5 million, an increase of $2.0 million, from $47.5 million in the prior year period. This change was primarily related to higher transaction costs incurred in fiscal year 2022 including costs related to the acquisition of THWR and advisory costs related to the divestiture by affiliates of Engaged Capital, LLC of their shares of the Company's common stock, as well as higher litigation expenses related to the baby food litigation described in Note 17, Commitments and Contingencies, partially offset by lower employee-related expenses.

Refer to Note 18, Segment Information, in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We finance our operations and growth primarily with the cash flows we generate from our operations and from borrowings available to us under our Credit Agreement (as defined below). We believe that our cash flows from operations and borrowing capacity under our Credit Agreement will be adequate to meet anticipated operating and other expenditures for the foreseeable future.

Amended and Restated Credit Agreement

On December 22, 2021, the Company refinanced its revolving credit facility by entering into a Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides for senior secured financing of $1,100.0 million in the aggregate, consisting of (1) $300.0 million in aggregate principal amount of term loans (the "Term Loans") and (2) an $800.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (which includes borrowing capacity available for letters of credit, and is comprised of a $440.0 million U.S. revolving credit facility and $360.0 million global revolving credit facility) (the "Revolver"). Both the Revolver and the Term Loans mature on December 22, 2026.

Our cash and cash equivalents balance decreased $18.1 million at March 31, 2022 to $57.8 million as compared to $75.9 million at June 30, 2021. Our working capital from continuing operations was $273.6 million at March 31, 2022, a decrease of $11.1 million from $284.7 million at the end of fiscal 2021. Additionally, our total debt increased by $604.5 million at March 31, 2022 to $835.5 million as compared to $231.0 million at June 30, 2021 as a result of increased net borrowings to support the THWR acquisition and the share repurchases carried out during the period. As of March 31, 2022, $253.1 million was available under the Credit Agreement as compared to $763.6 million available as of June 30, 2021 under the predecessor agreement to the Credit Agreement. The Company was in compliance with all covenants at March 31, 2022.

Liquidity is affected by many factors, some of which are based on normal ongoing operations of the Company’s business and some of which arise from fluctuations related to global economics and markets. Our cash balances are held in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Europe, Middle East and India. As of March 31, 2022, substantially all of the total cash balance from continuing operations was held outside of the United States. It is our current intent to indefinitely reinvest our remaining foreign earnings outside the United States.

46

We maintain our cash and cash equivalents primarily in money market funds or their equivalent. As of March 31, 2022, all of our investments were expected to mature in less than three months. Accordingly, we do not believe that our investments have significant exposure to interest rate risk. Cash provided by (used in) operating, investing and financing activities is summarized below.

	Nine Months Ended March 31,				Change in
(amounts in thousands)	2022		2021		Dollars
Cash flows provided by (used in):
Operating activities from continuing operations	$	99,186	$	146,517	$	(47,331)
Investing activities from continuing operations	(284,271)		(25,968)		(258,303)
Financing activities from continuing operations	172,858		(110,956)		283,814
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash from continuing operations	(5,836)		5,650		(11,486)
Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents	$	(18,063)	$	15,243	$	(33,306)

Cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations was $99.2 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, a decrease of $47.3 million from cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations of $146.5 million in the prior year period. This decrease versus the prior period resulted primarily from a reduction of $18.1 million in net income adjusted for non-cash charges in the current period and lower cash generation of $29.2 million from our working capital accounts which was mainly due to a refund of $53.8 million received by the Company in the prior year from Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (the "CARES Act").

Cash used in investing activities from continuing operations was $284.3 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, an increase of $258.3 million from $26.0 million in the prior year period primarily due to the acquisition of THWR in the current year, partially offset by $10.8 million in proceeds from the sale of assets in the current year, which was primarily related to the sale of undeveloped land plots in Boulder, Colorado.

Cash provided by financing activities from continuing operations was $172.9 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, an increase in cash provided of $283.8 million compared to $111.0 million of cash used in the prior year period. The increase in cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to higher borrowings under the Credit Agreement to finance the THWR acquisition, partially offset by higher repayments under the revolver, higher share repurchases and payment of shares withheld for employee payroll taxes during the nine months ended March 31, 2022.

Operating Free Cash Flow from Continuing Operations

Our operating free cash flow from continuing operations was $65.2 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2022, a decrease of $28.2 million from $93.5 million in the nine months ended March 31, 2021. This decrease versus prior year resulted primarily from a decrease in cash flow from operations of $47.3 million driven by the reasons explained above. Additionally, the decrease was due to a $19.1 million reduction in property, plant and equipment purchases in the current period. See the Reconciliation of Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures to U.S. GAAP Measures following the discussion of our results of operations for definitions and a reconciliation from our net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations to operating free cash flow from continuing operations.

Share Repurchase Program

In June 2017, August 2021 and January 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $250.0 million, $300.0 million and $200.0 million of the Company’s issued and outstanding common stock, respectively. Repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market, pursuant to pre-set trading plans, in private transactions or otherwise. The 2017 and 2021 authorizations have been fully utilized. The current 2022 authorization does not have a stated expiration date. The extent to which the Company repurchases its shares and the timing of such repurchases will depend upon market conditions and other corporate considerations. In November 2021, the Company entered into a share repurchase agreement with affiliates of Engaged Capital, LLC (collectively, the “Selling Stockholders”), pursuant to which the Company repurchased 1.7 million shares directly from the Selling Stockholders at a price of $45.00 per share. During the nine months ended March 31, 2022, the Company repurchased 10.1 million shares under the repurchase program, inclusive of the shares repurchased from the Selling Stockholders, for a total of $395.8 million, excluding commissions, at an average price of $39.09 per share. As of March 31, 2022, the Company had $186.6 million of remaining authorization under the share repurchase program. During the nine months

47

ended March 31, 2021, the Company repurchased 2.4 million shares under the repurchase program for a total of $80.3 million, excluding commissions, at an average price of $33.33 per share.

Reconciliation of Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures to U.S. GAAP Measures

We have included in this report measures of financial performance that are not defined by U.S. GAAP. We believe that these measures provide useful information to investors and include these measures in other communications to investors.

For each of these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, we are providing below a reconciliation of the differences between the non-U.S. GAAP measure and the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, an explanation of why our management and Board of Directors believe the non-U.S. GAAP measure provides useful information to investors and any additional purposes for which our management and Board of Directors use the non-U.S. GAAP measures. These non-U.S. GAAP measures should be viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of, the comparable U.S. GAAP measures.

Net Sales - Constant Currency Presentation

We believe that this measure provides useful information to investors because it provides transparency to underlying performance in our consolidated net sales by excluding the effect that foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations have on year-to-year comparability given the volatility in foreign currency exchange markets. To present this information for historical periods, 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. As a result, the foreign currency impact is equal to the current year results in local currencies multiplied by the change in average foreign currency exchange rate between the current fiscal period and the corresponding period of the prior fiscal year.

Net Sales - Acquisitions, Divestitures and Discontinued Brands

We also exclude the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and discontinued brands when comparing net sales to prior periods, which results in the presentation of certain non-U.S. GAAP financial measures. The Company's management believes that excluding the impact of acquisitions, divestitures and discontinued brands when presenting period-over-period results of net sales aids in comparability.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, equity in net loss (income) of equity-method investees, stock-based compensation, net, unrealized currency gains and losses, litigation and related costs, plant closure related costs, net, productivity and transformation costs, warehouse and manufacturing consolidation and other costs, costs associated with acquisitions, divestitures and other transactions, gains or losses on sales of assets and businesses, inventory write-downs, impairment of long-lived assets and intangibles and other adjustments. The Company’s management believes that this presentation provides useful information to management, analysts and investors regarding certain additional financial and business trends relating to its results of operations and financial condition. In addition, management uses this measure for reviewing the financial results of the Company and as a component of performance-based

49

executive compensation. Adjusted EBITDA is a non-U.S. GAAP measure and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

We do not consider Adjusted EBITDA in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The principal limitation of Adjusted EBITDA is that it excludes certain expenses and income that are required by U.S. GAAP to be recorded in our consolidated financial statements. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is subject to inherent limitations as this metric reflects the exercise of judgment by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining Adjusted EBITDA. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents Adjusted EBITDA in connection with U.S. GAAP results.

A reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA is as follows:

Operating Free Cash Flow from Continuing Operations

In our internal evaluations, we use the non-U.S. GAAP financial measure “Operating Free Cash Flow from continuing operations.” The difference between Operating Free Cash Flow from continuing operations and cash flow provided by or used in operating activities from continuing operations, which is the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, is that Operating Free Cash Flow from continuing operations reflects the impact of purchases of property, plant and equipment (capital spending). Since capital spending is essential to maintaining our operational capabilities, we believe that it is a recurring and

50

necessary use of cash. As such, we believe investors should also consider capital spending when evaluating our cash provided by or used in operating activities. We view Operating Free Cash Flow from continuing operations as an important measure because it is one factor in evaluating the amount of cash available for discretionary investments. We do not consider Operating Free Cash Flow from continuing operations in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

A reconciliation from cash flow provided by operating activities from continuing operations to Operating Free Cash flow from continuing operations is as follows:

	Nine Months Ended March 31,
(amounts in thousands)	2022		2021
Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations	$	99,186	$	146,517
Purchases of property, plant and equipment	(33,939)		(53,062)
Operating free cash flow from continuing operations	$	65,247	$	93,455

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

At March 31, 2022, we did not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as defined in Item 303 of Regulation S-K that have had, or are likely to have, a material current or future effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Critical Accounting Estimates

Our financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The accounting principles we use require us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and amounts of income and expenses during the reporting periods presented. We believe in the quality and reasonableness of our critical accounting policies; however, materially different amounts may be reported under different conditions or using assumptions different from those that we have applied. The accounting policies that have been identified as critical to our business operations and to understanding the results of our operations pertain to revenue recognition, trade promotions and sales incentives, valuation of accounts and chargeback receivable, valuation of long-lived assets, goodwill and intangible assets, stock-based compensation and valuation allowances for deferred tax assets. The application of each of these critical accounting policies and estimates is discussed in Part II, Item 7, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, from which there have been no material changes.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Refer to Note 2, Basis of Presentation, in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Seasonality

Certain of our product lines have seasonal fluctuations. Hot tea, hot-eating desserts and soup sales are stronger in colder months, while sales of snack foods, sunscreen and certain of our personal care products are stronger in the warmer months. As such, our results of operations and our cash flows for any particular quarter are not indicative of the results we expect for the full year, and our historical seasonality may not be indicative of future quarterly results of operations. In recent years, net sales and diluted earnings per share in the first fiscal quarter have typically been the lowest of our four quarters.

Item 3.         Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There have been no significant changes in market risk from those addressed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021 during the nine months ended March 31, 2022. See the information set forth in Part II, Item 7A, Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk, of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.

Item 4.        Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), with the assistance of other members of management, have reviewed the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report. Our disclosure controls and procedures are intended to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports it files or submits under the Exchange Act is (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Consistent with guidance issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission that an assessment of internal controls over financial reporting of a recently acquired business may be omitted from management's evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures, management is excluding an assessment of such internal controls of Proven Brands, Inc. (and its subsidiary That's How We Roll LLC) and KTB Foods Inc. (collectively doing business as "That's How We Roll" ("THWR")) from its evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures. The Company acquired all outstanding stock of THWR on December 28, 2021. THWR represented approximately 13.2% of the Company's consolidated total assets at March 31, 2022. THWR's net sales included in our consolidated results were 5.0% and 1.8% for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022. Based on this review, our CEO and CFO have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures for the Company were effective as of March 31, 2022.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect every misstatement. An evaluation of effectiveness is subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may decrease over time.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting that occurred during the three months ended March 31, 2022 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting except that, as reported above, on December 28, 2021, the Company acquired all outstanding stock of THWR. As a result, the Company is currently integrating THWR’s operations into its overall system of internal control over financial reporting and, if necessary, will make appropriate changes as it integrates THWR into the Company's overall internal control over financial reporting process.

Dear Chris:

We are pleased to offer employment to you as Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer of The Hain Celestial Group, Inc. (“Hain Celestial” or the “Company”). As we have discussed, your employment will commence on January 18, 2022 (the “Start Date”) as Executive Vice President, Finance, and you will become Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer at the close of business on February 4, 2022.

1.Your annual base salary will be $550,000 (less required withholdings and elected deductions) and will be paid in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices.

2.You will be eligible to earn an annual incentive award (the “Annual Incentive Award”) under the terms and conditions of the Company’s Annual Incentive Plan. Your target Annual Incentive Award for fiscal year 2022 shall be equal to 85% of your annual base salary (“Target AIP Award”), prorated based on your Start Date. The amount payable to you under the Annual Incentive Award will be determined by the Compensation Committee in its discretion under the terms of the annual incentive plan, and you must be actively employed by the Company at the time of payment. For fiscal year 2022, your minimum payout of your Annual Incentive Award will be your Target AIP Award, prorated based on your Start Date.

3.As a member of the Hain Celestial leadership team, you will be eligible to participate in the Company’s Long-Term Incentive Program (“LTIP”) beginning in fiscal year 2022, subject to your continued employment and Compensation Committee plan design and approval. As soon as practicably possible following your Start Date, for fiscal year 2022, you will receive an award prorated to reflect the months of employment of the current fiscal year based on a target value of $1,000,000, subject to the terms and conditions of such program. Your fiscal year 2022 LTIP award will consist of (A) an award of Restricted Share Units (“RSUs”) (50% of the award value) vesting in 1/3 installments on each of November 18, 2022, 2023 and 2024 and (B) awards of Performance Share Units (“PSUs”) (50% of the award value), with 2/3 of the PSUs tied to relative Total Shareholder Return and 1/3 of the PSUs tied to absolute Total Shareholder Return, under the terms of the LTIP. With respect to this award for fiscal year 2022, the RSUs will have the added protection that if Hain Celestial terminates your employment without cause within the first 18 months following your Start Date, vesting of the RSUs will be accelerated on a prorated basis such that the total fraction of the RSUs that will have vested at the time of such termination (including any RSUs that have vested as scheduled) will equal the total number of days you were employed divided by the total number of days in the period from your Start Date through November 18, 2024.

4.If Hain Celestial terminates your employment without cause, as determined by the Compensation Committee in good faith, you will be entitled to receive a severance payment of one (1) times your annual base salary in effect at the time of termination and one (1) times your Target AIP Award for the year in which the termination date occurs, payable (less applicable withholdings) in bi-weekly payments, in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices, following the termination of your employment. Your entitlement to the severance payment will be subject to the execution of a separation agreement and release of claims in a form satisfactory to the Company, including an acknowledgment of the continued effectiveness of your post-employment restrictive covenants and other obligations to the Company.

5.You will participate in the Company’s “Change in Control Agreement,” in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of such agreement. The Change in Control Agreement will generally provide a severance benefit equal to (2) times the sum of your annual base salary and Target AIP Award if your employment is terminated under certain circumstances in connection with a Change in Control (as defined in the agreement).

6.Our group health insurance benefit plan provides for participation by new employees on the first calendar day of the month following completion of 30 days of employment. Additionally, as soon as practicable but no later than the first calendar day of the month following completion of 30 days of employment, you will be eligible to participate in the Hain Celestial 401(k) Retirement Plan.

7.You will be entitled to up to four (4) weeks of annual paid vacation and other personal leave in accordance with Company policy, which shall be subject in all respects to the terms and conditions of the Company’s paid time off policies, as may be in effect from time to time.

8.This offer is contingent upon your completion of a pre-hire screening, which will require that you execute documents required by Hain Celestial for a background investigation concerning your criminal, employment, education, and credit history. You also will be required to enter into a Restrictive Covenant Agreement (which includes our standard requirements relating to non-competition, non-solicitation, and confidentiality) within thirty (30) days of the Start Date.

9.You have advised us that you are not a party to or restricted by an agreement with a previous employer that would interfere with or impair in any way your ability to perform the duties of your position with Hain Celestial as described in this letter. It is a condition of your employment with Hain Celestial that you refrain from using or disclosing any proprietary information or trade secrets of any previous employer in the course of your employment with Hain Celestial. If any previous employer asserts a claim that your employment with Hain Celestial violates any contractual obligations owed by you, or that you have otherwise committed a breach of any contractual or other duty to a previous employer, Hain Celestial may immediately terminate your employment, and such termination will be treated as a termination for cause. In the event of such a claim, Hain Celestial is not obligated to indemnify you for any damages or to provide a defense against such claims.

10.    This letter does not constitute a contract of employment or a guarantee that your employment will continue for any period of time or any specific treatment. Your employment with us is “at-will” and is therefore terminable by either Hain Celestial or you without cause, notice or liability except as set forth in paragraphs 4 and 5 above. Your continued employment is subject to, among other things, your satisfactory completion of your job responsibilities and your compliance with Hain Celestial’s policy requirements.

11.    This letter and the Company’s obligations hereunder are intended to comply with or otherwise be exempt from Section 409A and its corresponding regulations, to the extent applicable, and shall be so construed.

12.    This letter supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements, understandings, negotiations, or representations, whether oral or written, express or implied, on this subject. This letter may not be modified or amended except by a specific, written arrangement signed by you and Hain Celestial's Chief Executive Officer. The terms of this letter shall be governed by New York law.

Please acknowledge your acceptance of these terms by your signature below. Afterwards, kindly return the signed letter to me and keep a copy for your records.

Sincerely,

/s/ JoAnn A. Murray

This Award shall constitute a Restricted Share Units award under the Company’s Amended and Restated 2002 Long Term Incentive and Stock Award Plan (the “Plan”), as amended to the Grant Date, the provisions of which are incorporated herein by reference. By accepting the Notice, the Participant: (a) acknowledges receipt of and represents that the Participant has read and is familiar with the Notice, this Agreement, and the Plan, (b) accepts the Award subject to all of the terms and conditions of the Notice, this Agreement and the Plan and (c) agrees to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Compensation Committee”) upon any questions arising under the Notice, this Agreement or the Plan.

1.DEFINITIONS AND CONSTRUCTION.

1.1Definitions. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Notice or the Plan.

1.2Construction. References herein to the Participant’s employment or employment arrangements with the Company shall be deemed to refer to employment with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates. Captions and titles contained herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the meaning or interpretation of any provision of this Agreement. Except when otherwise indicated by the context, the singular shall include the plural and the plural shall include the singular. Use of the term “or” is not intended to be exclusive, unless the context clearly requires otherwise.

2.ADMINISTRATION.

In accordance with Section 3 of the Plan, all questions of interpretation concerning the Notice and this Agreement shall be determined by the Compensation Committee. All determinations by the Compensation Committee made reasonably and in good faith shall be final and binding upon all persons having an interest in this Award.

3.THE AWARD.

3.1Grant of RSUs. On the Grant Date, the Participant shall acquire, subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the Total Number of RSUs set forth in the Notice. Each Unit represents a right to receive one (1) Share on the applicable vesting date determined in accordance with the Notice and this Agreement.

3.2No Monetary Payment Required. The Participant is not required to make any monetary payment (other than applicable tax withholding, if any) as a condition to receiving the RSUs or Shares issued upon settlement of the RSUs, the consideration for which shall be past services actually rendered and/or future services to be rendered to the Company or for its benefit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if required by applicable state corporate law, the Participant shall furnish consideration in the form of cash or past services rendered to the Company or for its benefit having a value not less than the par value of the Shares issued upon settlement of the RSUs.

3.3Confidentiality, Non-Interference, and Invention Assignment Agreement. As a condition to the grant of the Award and the receipt of Restricted Share Units pursuant to this Agreement and the Notice, the Participant accepts the Confidentiality, Non-Interference, and Invention Assignment Agreement attached hereto as Annex B.

4.VESTING OF RSUs.

4.1Normal Vesting. Except as provided by Section 4.2, the RSUs shall vest as provided in the Notice.

4.2Acceleration of Vesting Upon Certain Terminations. If the Participant’s employment with the Company is terminated (i) at any time as a result of the Participant’s death or Disability (as defined in Annex A), or (ii) by the Company without Cause (as defined in Annex A) within twelve (12) months following the consummation of a Change in Control (as defined in Annex A), then, in each case, any unvested RSUs shall vest immediately.

4.3Prorated Acceleration of Vesting Upon Certain Terminations. If, prior to July 18, 2023, the Participant’s employment with the Company is terminated by the Company without Cause other than within twelve (12) months following the consummation of a Change in Control, then vesting of the RSUs will be accelerated on a prorated basis (to the extent application of this Section 4.3 results in acceleration) such that the total fraction of the RSUs that will have vested at the time of such termination (including any RSUs that have vested as scheduled) will equal the number of days the Participant spent on the active payroll on and following the Grant Date divided by the total number of days in the period beginning on the Grant Date and ending on November 18, 2024.

5.DIVIDENDS CREDITED ON THE RESTRICTED SHARE UNITS.

5.1The RSUs will earn dividend equivalents in the form of additional RSUs. Specifically, as of each dividend payment date for Company common stock during the period beginning on the Grant Date and ending on the Vesting Date, the Participant’s account will be credited with additional RSUs (“Dividend Equivalent RSUs”) equal in number to the number of Shares that could be bought with the cash dividends that would be paid on the RSUs if each of the unvested RSUs was a Share, rounded to a whole number of Dividend Equivalent RSUs using normal rounding.

5.2The number of Shares that could be bought with the cash dividends will be calculated based on the Fair Market Value (as defined below) of Company common stock on the applicable dividend payment date. For purposes of this Agreement, “Fair Market Value” means the average of the high and the low per Share trading prices for Company common stock as reported in The Wall Street Journal for the specific dividend payment date, or in such other source as the Company deems reliable.

5.3Dividend Equivalent RSUs will vest at the same time and in the same manner as the RSUs with which they are associated.

6.SETTLEMENT OF THE AWARD; FORFEITURE AND CLAWBACK.

6.1Issuance of Shares. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.3 and Section 7, promptly following each Vesting Date, the Company shall issue to the Participant in settlement of the RSUs that vested on such Vesting Date, the number of Shares equal to one (1) Share for each RSU that vests on such Vesting Date. The Participant understands and agrees that the administration of the issuance of Shares may take up to 15 days following the Vesting Date.

2

6.2Mechanics of Issuance of Shares. The Participant hereby authorizes the Company, in its sole discretion, to deposit for the benefit of the Participant with any broker with which the Participant has an account relationship of which the Company has notice (including any broker that administers the Company’s equity award plans) any or all Shares acquired by the Participant pursuant to the settlement of the Award. Except as provided by the preceding sentence, a certificate for the Shares as to which the Award is settled shall be registered in the name of the Participant, or, if applicable, in the names of the heirs of the Participant.

6.3Securities Laws and Other Laws. The grant of the Award and issuance of Shares upon settlement of the Award shall be subject to compliance with all applicable requirements of federal, state or foreign law, including securities laws and regulations.

6.4Forfeiture and Clawback. In the event the Participant breaches the Confidentiality, Non-Interference, and Invention Assignment Agreement attached hereto as Annex B, then the Company shall have the right to (a) deem all RSUs which have not vested to be canceled and rescinded, and forfeited by the Participant, and (b) require the Participant to return to the Company any Shares issued to the Participant upon settlement of the RSUs during the two (2) years prior to such breach and pay to the Company any proceeds realized as a result of the Participant’s sale of Shares issued to the Participant upon settlement of the RSUs during the two (2) years prior to such breach, in each case within thirty (30) days following the Company’s request for such return or payment.

7.TAX IMPLICATIONS.

7.1In General. The Participant hereby authorizes withholding from payroll and any other amounts payable to the Participant, and otherwise agrees to make adequate provision for, any sums required to satisfy the federal, state, local and foreign tax (including any social insurance) withholding obligations of the Company (or its Affiliate or Subsidiary), if any, which arise in connection with this Award, the vesting of RSUs or the issuance of Shares in settlement thereof (the “Tax Liability”). These requirements may change from time to time as laws or interpretations change. Regardless of the Company’s (or its Affiliate’s or Subsidiary’s) actions in this regard, the Participant hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Tax Liability shall be the Participant’s responsibility and liability.

7.2Withholding in Shares. The Company may satisfy all or any portion of tax withholding obligations by deducting from the Shares otherwise deliverable to the Participant in settlement of the Award a number of whole Shares having a fair market value, as determined by the Company as of the date on which the tax withholding obligations arise, not in excess of the amount of such tax withholding obligations determined by the applicable maximum statutory withholding rates.

8.ADJUSTMENTS FOR CHANGES IN CAPITAL STRUCTURE.

The Compensation Committee may make adjustments in accordance with Section 4(d) of the Plan.

9.NO RIGHTS AS A STOCKHOLDER OR EMPLOYEE.

The Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any RSUs until the date of the issuance of the Shares in settlement thereof. No adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date the Shares are issued, except as provided in Sections 5 and 8. The Participant understands and acknowledges that, except as otherwise provided in a separate, written employment agreement between the Company and the Participant, the Participant’s employment is “at will” and is for no specified

3

term. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the employment of the Company or any Subsidiary or interfere in any way with any right of such entities to terminate the Participant’s employment at any time.

10.MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.

10.1Termination or Amendment. The Board may terminate or amend the Plan or this Agreement at any time; provided, however, that no such termination or amendment may adversely affect the Participant’s rights under this Agreement without the consent of the Participant unless such termination or amendment is necessary to comply with applicable law or government regulation, including, but not limited to, Section 409A of the Code. No amendment or addition to this Agreement shall be effective unless in writing.

10.2Nontransferability of the Award. Prior to the issuance of Shares on settlement of the Award, neither this Award nor any RSUs subject to this Award shall be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, exchange, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, or garnishment by creditors of the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary, except transfer by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. All rights with respect to the Award shall be exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant or the Participant’s guardian or legal representative.

10.3Further Instruments. The parties hereto agree to execute such further instruments and to take such further action as may reasonably be necessary to carry out the intent of this Agreement.

10.4Binding Effect. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the successors and assigns of the Company and, subject to the restrictions on transfer set forth herein, be binding upon the Participant and the Participant’s heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assigns.

10.5Delivery of Documents and Notices. Any document relating to participation in the Plan or any notice required or permitted hereunder shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given (except to the extent that this Agreement provides for effectiveness only upon actual receipt of such notice) upon personal delivery, electronic delivery at the e-mail address, if any, provided for the Participant by the Company, or upon deposit in the U.S. Post Office or foreign postal service, by registered or certified mail, or with a nationally recognized overnight courier service, with postage and fees prepaid, if to the Company at 1111 Marcus Avenue, Lake Success, NY 11042, Attention: General Counsel, and if to the Participant at the home address of the Participant on file with the Company.

(a)Description of Electronic Delivery. The Plan documents, which may include but do not necessarily include: the Plan, the Notice, this Agreement, the Plan’s prospectus, and any reports of the Company provided generally to the Company’s stockholders, may be delivered to the Participant electronically. In addition, the Participant may deliver electronically the Notice and this Agreement to the Company or to such third party involved in administering the Plan as the Company may designate from time to time. Such means of electronic delivery may include but do not necessarily include the delivery of a link to a Company intranet or the internet site of a third party involved in administering the Plan, the delivery of the document via e-mail or such other means of electronic delivery specified by the Company.

(b)Consent to Electronic Delivery and Execution. The Participant acknowledges that the Participant has read Section 10.5(a) of this Agreement and consents to the electronic delivery of the Plan documents, as described in Section 10.5(a). The Participant

4

acknowledges that he or she may receive from the Company a paper copy of any documents delivered electronically at no cost to the Participant by contacting the Company by telephone or in writing. The Participant further acknowledges that the Participant will be provided with a paper copy of any documents if the attempted electronic delivery of such documents fails. Similarly, the Participant understands that the Participant must provide the Company or any designated third party administrator with a paper copy of any documents if the attempted electronic delivery or execution of such documents fails. The Participant may revoke his or her consent to the electronic delivery of documents described in Section 10.5(a) or may change the electronic mail address to which such documents are to be delivered (if Participant has provided an electronic mail address) at any time by notifying the Company of such revoked consent or revised e-mail address by telephone, postal service or electronic mail. Finally, the Participant understands that he or she is not required to consent to electronic delivery of documents described in Section 10.5(a). Electronic acceptance of the Notice, this Agreement and any annexes shall have the same binding effect as a written or hard copy signature and accordingly, shall bind the Participant to all of the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan, the Notice, this Agreement and any annexes.

10.6Integrated Agreement. The Notice, this Agreement and the Plan shall constitute the entire understanding and agreement of the Participant and the Company with respect to the subject matter contained herein or therein and supersedes any prior agreements, understandings, restrictions, representations, or warranties between the Participant and the Company with respect to such subject matter other than those as set forth or provided for herein or therein. To the extent contemplated herein or therein, the provisions of the Notice and the Agreement shall survive any settlement of the Award and shall remain in full force and effect.

10.7Section 409A. This Agreement and the RSUs granted hereunder are intended to fit within the “short-term deferral” exemption from Section 409A of the Code as set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(4). In administering this Agreement, the Company shall interpret this Agreement in a manner consistent with such exemption. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if it is determined that the RSUs fail to satisfy the requirements of the short-term deferral rule and are otherwise deferred compensation subject to Section 409A, and if the Participant is a “Specified Employee” (within the meaning set forth Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code) as of the date of the Participant’s separation from service (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h)), then the issuance of any Shares that would otherwise be made upon the date of the separation from service or within the first six (6) months thereafter will not be made on the originally scheduled date(s) and will instead be issued in a lump sum on the date that is six (6) months and one day after the date of the separation from service, but if and only if such delay in the issuance of the Shares is necessary to avoid the imposition of additional taxation on the Participant in respect of the Shares under Section 409A of the Code. Each installment of Shares that vests is intended to constitute a “separate payment” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2).

10.8Applicable Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York without regard to its conflict of laws provisions. The parties agree that any action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement shall be brought exclusively in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, Nassau County, or in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, or in any other court of competent jurisdiction in and for the State of New York, Nassau County and the parties agree to the personal jurisdiction thereof. The parties hereby irrevocably waive any objection they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such action in such court(s), and further irrevocably waive any claim they may now or hereafter have that any such action brought in such court(s) has been brought in an inconvenient forum. The parties agree that, if any dispute or

5

controversy arising from or relating to this agreement is submitted for adjudication to any court, all issues of fact shall be tried without a jury.

10.9Severability. If any term or provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Participant or circumstance shall to any extent be invalid or unenforceable, such provision will be modified, rewritten or interpreted to include as much of its nature and scope as will render it enforceable. If it cannot be so modified, rewritten or interpreted to be enforceable in any respect, it will not be given effect and the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of such term or provision to Participants or circumstances other than those held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term and provision of this Agreement shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law.

10.10Acceptance. By accepting this Agreement, the Participant: (a) acknowledges receipt of and represents that the Participant has read and is familiar with this Agreement and the Plan, (b) accepts the Award subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan, (c) agrees to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions or interpretations of the Committee upon any questions arising under this Agreement except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and (d) accepts the Confidentiality, Non-Interference, and Invention Assignment Agreement attached hereto as Annex B. The Participant acknowledges that there may be tax consequences upon the vesting and settlement of the RSUs or disposition of the underlying Shares and that the Participant has been advised to consult a tax advisor prior to such vesting, settlement or disposition.

INVENTION ASSIGNMENT AGREEMENT

In consideration of Employee’s continued employment with the Company and remuneration received thereunder, and Employee’s receipt of the compensation now and hereafter paid to Employee by the Company, including Employee’s receipt of an award of Restricted Share Units in accordance with the Notice of Grant of Restricted Share Units and Restricted Share Unit Agreement to which this Agreement is attached, the receipt and sufficiency of which are mutually acknowledged, Employee agrees as follows:

Section 1. Confidential Information.

(a)Company Information. Employee acknowledges that, during the course of Employee’s employment, Employee will have substantial access to, be provided with and inevitably will use confidential and proprietary information of the Company.

Employee understands that “Confidential Information” means information in spoken, printed, electronic, or any other form or medium, that is not generally known publicly and is owned or maintained by the Company and/or has been acquired, developed, discovered or compiled by the Company at its great effort and expense, and that the Company wishes to maintain as confidential, that has value in or to the business of the Company. Employee understands that:

(i)Confidential Information includes, but is not limited to, any and all non-public information that relates to the actual or anticipated business and/or products or services, research, or development of the Company, or to the Company’s technical data, trade secrets, or know-how, including, but not limited to, business records, customer lists or compilations, terms of customer agreements, supplier or service information, pricing or cost information, marketing information, future products and strategies or plans, ideas, business opportunities, inventions, creations, enhancements, business operation information, financial information or personnel data, designs, drawings or inspections of premises, parts, equipment, or other Company property, any formula, recipe, manufacturing process, pattern, device and/or compilation of information that is used in the Company’s business and that gives the Company an advantage over its competitors, or other information regarding the Company’s products or services, markets, customers (including, but not limited to, customers of the Company on whom Employee called or with whom Employee may become acquainted during the Employment Period), software, processes, formulas, product specifications, technology, designs, drawings, engineering, hardware configuration information, marketing, finances, policies, training manuals and similar materials used by the Company in conducting its business operations, potential business combinations, and other business information disclosed by the Company either directly or indirectly, in writing, electronically or orally, and other confidential or proprietary information created, used and/or obtained by Employee in the course of Employee’s employment with the Company;

B-1

(ii)Confidential Information also includes proprietary or confidential information of any third party who may disclose such information to Company or to Employee in the course of the Company’s business subject to a duty on the Company’s part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes;

(iii)Confidential Information also includes other information of any existing or prospective customer or of any other Person that has entrusted information to the Company in confidence. Employee acknowledges that all Confidential Information is the sole and exclusive property of the Company. Employee further acknowledges that the Company’s communication systems (such as email and voicemail) are maintained to assist in the conduct of the Company’s business and that such systems and data exchanged or stored thereon are Company property; and

(iv)notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information shall not include any of the foregoing items that have become publicly and widely known through no unauthorized disclosure by Employee or others who were under confidentiality obligations as to the item or items involved.

(b)Former Employer Information. Employee represents and warrants that Employee is not a party to any non-competition agreement or other contractual limitation that would interfere with or hinder Employee’s ability to undertake the obligations and expectations of employment with the Company. Employee represents that Employee’s performance of all of the terms of this Agreement as an employee of the Company has not breached and will not breach any agreement to keep in confidence proprietary information, knowledge, or data acquired by Employee in confidence or trust prior to the commencement of Employee’s employment with the Company, and Employee will not disclose to the Company, or induce the Company to use, any developments, or confidential information or material Employee may have obtained in connection with employment with any prior employer in violation of a confidentiality agreement, nondisclosure agreement, or similar agreement with such prior employer. If any prior employer asserts a claim that Employee’s employment with the Company violates any contractual obligations owed by Employee, or that Employee has otherwise committed a breach of any contractual or other duty to a prior employer, the Company may immediately terminate Employee’s employment. In the event of such a claim, the Company is not obligated to indemnify Employee for any damages or to provide a defense against such claims.

(c)Permitted Disclosure. This Agreement does not limit or interfere with Employee’s right, without notice to or authorization of the Company, to communicate and cooperate in good faith with any self-regulatory organization or federal, state, or local governmental agency, commission, or entity (collectively, a “Government Entity”) for the purpose of (i) reporting a possible violation of any federal, state, or local law or regulation, (ii) participating in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted or managed by any Government Entity, including by providing documents or other information, or (iii) filing a charge or complaint with a Government Entity, provided that in each case, such communications, participation, and disclosures are consistent with applicable law. Additionally, Employee shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that is made (i) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, or to an attorney, solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law, or (ii) in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. If Employee files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law, Employee may disclose the trade secret to the Employee’s attorney in such lawsuit and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if Employee files any document containing the trade secret under seal and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order. All disclosures permitted under this Section 1(c) are hereinafter

B-2

referred to as “Permitted Disclosures.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, under no circumstance will Employee be authorized to disclose any Confidential Information as to which the Company may assert protections from disclosure under the attorney-client privilege or the attorney work product doctrine, without prior written consent of Company’s General Counsel or other authorized officer designated by the Company.

Section 2. Developments.

All inventions, improvements, trade secrets, reports, manuals, computer programs, systems, educational and sales materials or other publications, and other ideas and materials developed or invented by Employee, including all tangible work product derived therefrom, during the Employment Period, either solely or in collaboration with others, which relate to the actual or anticipated business or research of the Company, which result from or are suggested by any work Employee may do for the Company, or which result from use of the Company’s premises or the Company’s or its customers’ property (collectively, the “Developments”) shall be the sole and exclusive property of the Company. Employee hereby assigns to the Company Employee’s entire right and interest in any such Developments. Employee agrees to promptly and fully disclose to the Company all Developments. At the request of the Company, Employee will, during and after the term of this Agreement, without charge to the Company but at the expense of the Company, assist the Company in any reasonable way to vest in the Company title to all such Developments, and to obtain any related patents, trademarks, or copyrights in all countries throughout the world. Employee will execute and deliver assignments and any other documents that the Company may reasonably request in connection with such assistance.

This Section 2 does not apply to an invention for which no equipment, supplies, facility or trade secret information of the Company was used and which was developed entirely on Employee’s own time, and (1) which does not relate (a) directly to the business of the Company or (b) to the Company’s actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development, or (2) which does not result from any work performed by Employee for the Company.

Section 3. Returning Company Documents and Equipment.

At the time of the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company for any reason (or earlier if so requested), Employee will promptly deliver to the Company (and will not keep in Employee’s possession, recreate, copy, or deliver to anyone else) any and all Confidential Information and all other documents, materials, information, computer equipment, electronic equipment, mobile phones, and other property in Employee’s possession or control, created or received by Employee in connection with Employee’s employment or otherwise belonging to the Company (excluding documents related only to Employee’s compensation and employee benefits). Any property situated on the Company’s premises and owned by the Company (or any other member of the Company), including USB flash drives and other storage media, filing cabinets, and other work areas, is subject to inspection by the Company at any time with or without notice. Furthermore, at the time of termination, Employee will return all property of the Company in proper working order without any modification to device or data contained within it, and will provide all passwords or passcodes needed for the Company to access any electronic devices.

Section 4. Restrictions on Interfering.

(a)Non-Competition. During the Employment Period and the Post-Termination Restricted Period, Employee shall not, without the express written consent of the CEO of the Company, directly or indirectly, individually or on behalf of any Person, whether for compensation or otherwise, engage in any Competitive Activities in any jurisdiction in which the

Company engages in business and in relation to which Employee has had a material influence or material involvement, or obtained material Confidential Information.

(b)Non-Interference. During the Employment Period and the Post-Termination Restricted Period, Employee shall not, without the express written consent of the CEO of the Company, directly or indirectly, individually or on behalf of any Person, engage in Interfering Activities.

Section 5. Reasonableness of Restrictions.

Employee acknowledges and recognizes the highly competitive nature of the Company’s business, and agrees that access to Confidential Information renders Employee special and unique within the Company’s industry, and that Employee will have the opportunity to develop substantial relationships of confidence, trust and goodwill with existing and prospective employees, customers, vendors, suppliers, and/or business partners of the Company during the course of and as a result of Employee’s employment with the Company. In light of the foregoing, Employee recognizes and acknowledges that the restrictions and limitations set forth in this Agreement are reasonable and valid in geographic and temporal scope and in all other respects and are essential to protect the value of the Business, goodwill and assets of the Company. Employee further acknowledges that the Company competes worldwide, and that Employee’s access to Confidential Information, including trade secrets, and the relationships Employee builds during Employee’s employment make it necessary for the Company to restrict Employee’s post-employment activities in any market in which the Company competes, and in which Employee’s access to Confidential Information and the relationships Employee builds during Employee’s employment could be used to the detriment of the Company. Employee further acknowledges that the restrictions and limitations set forth in this Agreement will not materially interfere with Employee’s ability to earn a living following the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company.

B-5

Section 6. Independence; Severability; Blue Pencil.

Each of the rights enumerated in this Agreement shall be independent of the others and shall be in addition to and not in lieu of any other rights and remedies available to the Company at law or in equity. If any of the provisions of this Agreement or any part of any of them is hereafter construed or adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable in any respect, the same shall not affect the remainder of this Agreement, which shall be given full effect without regard to the invalid portions. If any of the covenants contained herein are held to be invalid or unenforceable because of the duration of such provisions or the area or scope covered thereby, the court making such determination shall have the power to modify the duration, scope, and/or area of such provision to the maximum and/or broadest duration, scope, and/or area permissible by law, and in its reduced form said provision shall then be enforceable. Such modification will apply only with respect to the operation of such provision in the particular jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made.

Section 7. Remedies.

Employee expressly acknowledges that any breach or threatened breach of any of the terms and/or conditions set forth in this Agreement may result in substantial, continuing, and irreparable injury to the Company, monetary relief would not compensate for such breach, and damages arising out of such a breach may be difficult to ascertain. Therefore, Employee agrees that, in addition to any other remedy that may be available to the Company, including but not limited to the remedies set forth in Section 6.4 of the Restricted Share Unit Agreement, the Company has the right to seek temporary, preliminary, and/or or permanent injunctive relief, specific performance, or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction in the event of any breach or threatened breach of the terms of this Agreement, without the necessity of showing any actual damages or that money damages would not afford an adequate remedy, and without the necessity of posting any bond or other security. The Company may pursue any remedy available, including declaratory relief, concurrently or consecutively in any order, and the pursuit of one such remedy at any time will not be deemed an election of remedies or waiver of the right to pursue any other remedy. In addition, in the event of a breach by the Employee of any provision of this Agreement, the Company shall be entitled to the cessation of payment of any unpaid severance benefits and/or to seek repayment of any severance benefits paid to the Employee pursuant to any severance benefit agreement, plan, or program of the Company, as may be legally permissible. Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the Post-Termination Restricted Period shall be tolled during any period of violation of any of the covenants in Section 4 of this Agreement.

Section 8. Cooperation.

Following any termination of Employee’s employment, Employee will continue to provide reasonable cooperation to the Company and its counsel in connection with any investigation, administrative proceeding, or litigation relating to any matter that occurred during the Employment Period in which Employee was involved or of which Employee has knowledge. As a condition of such cooperation, the Company shall reimburse Employee for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred at the request of the Company with respect to Employee’s compliance with this Section 8. In the event Employee is subpoenaed by any person or entity (including, but not limited to, any Government Entity) to give testimony or provide documents (in a deposition, court proceeding, or otherwise), that in any way relates to Employee’s employment by the Company, Employee will give prompt notice of such subpoena to the Company and will make no disclosure until the Company has had a reasonable opportunity to contest the right of the requesting person or entity to such disclosure. Nothing in this Section 8 shall limit Employee’s right to make Permitted Disclosures as provided in Section 1(c).

B-6

Section 9. General Provisions.

The failure of either the Company or Employee, whether purposeful or otherwise, to exercise in any instance any right, power, or privilege under this Agreement or under law shall not constitute a waiver of the same or any other right, power, or privilege in any other instance.  Any waiver or modification by the Company or by Employee must be in writing and signed by either Employee, if Employee is seeking to waive any of Employee’s rights under this Agreement, or by the CEO of the Company, if the Company is seeking to waive any of its rights under this Agreement.

(e)Survival. The provisions of this Agreement shall survive the termination of Employee’s employment with the Company and/or the assignment of this Agreement by the Company to any successor in interest or other assignee.

(f)Section Headings. Section and subsection headings are inserted for convenience only and shall not limit, expand, or alter the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in affiliated companies in which the Company exerts significant influence, but which it does not control, are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. As such, consolidated net income includes the Company's equity in the current earnings or losses of such companies.

The Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP and should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021 (the “Form 10-K”). The amounts as of and for the periods ended June 30, 2021 are derived from the Company’s audited annual financial statements. The unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments which, in management’s opinion, are necessary for a fair presentation for interim periods. Operating results for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2022. Please refer to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements as of June 30, 2021 and for the fiscal year then ended included in the Form 10-K for information not included in these condensed notes.

All amounts in the unaudited consolidated financial statements, notes and tables have been rounded to the nearest thousand, except par values and per share amounts, unless otherwise indicated.

Significant Accounting Policies

The Company's significant accounting policies are described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices, in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Form 10-K. Included herein are certain updates to those policies.

Transfer of Financial Assets

The Company has non-recourse accounts receivable financing arrangements in which eligible receivables are sold to third-party buyers in exchange for cash. The Company transferred accounts receivable in their entirety to the buyers and satisfied all of the conditions to report the transfer of financial assets in their entirety as a sale. The principal amount of receivables sold under these arrangements was $112,607 and $59,871 during the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The incremental cost

of accounts receivable financing arrangements is included in Other (income) expense, net in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. The proceeds from the sale of receivables are included in cash provided by operating activities in the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, which requires an acquirer to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination on the acquisition date in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as if it had originated the contracts. This approach differs from the current requirement to measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination at fair value. The Company adopted ASU 2021-08 during the second quarter of fiscal year 2022, and the adoption did not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by reference rate reform. ASU 2020-04 is currently effective and upon adoption may be applied prospectively to contract modifications made on or before December 31, 2022. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope, which clarifies certain provisions in Topic 848, if elected by an entity, to apply to derivative instruments that use an interest rate for margining, discounting, or contract price alignment that is modified as a result of reference rate reform. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2022, the Company adopted the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections as applicable as additional changes in the market occur.

Share repurchases under the 2021 and 2022 authorizations commenced after the previous authorizations were fully utilized. Repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market, pursuant to pre-set trading plans, in private transactions or otherwise. The current 2022 authorization does not have a stated expiration date. The extent to which the Company repurchases its shares and the timing of such repurchases will depend upon market conditions and other corporate considerations. In November 2021, the Company entered into a share repurchase agreement with affiliates of Engaged Capital, LLC (collectively, the “Selling Stockholders”), pursuant to which the Company repurchased 1,700 shares directly from the Selling Stockholders at a price of $45.00 per share (see Note 19, Related Party Transactions).

ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS

That's How We Roll

On December 28, 2021, the Company acquired all outstanding stock of THWR, the producer and marketer of ParmCrisps® and Thinsters®, deepening the Company's position in the snacking category. Consideration for the transaction consisted of cash, net of cash acquired, totaling $260,871, subject to an adjustment for working capital. Of the total consideration, $260,474 was paid with the remaining $397 payable as of March 31, 2022. The acquisition was funded with borrowings under the Credit Agreement (as defined in Note 9, Debt and Borrowings). The Company incurred $5,103 of transaction costs in connection with the acquisition which were expensed as incurred, and are included as a component of Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2022.

The following table summarizes the Company's preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their respective estimated fair values on the acquisition date. The Company expects to finalize the allocation during fiscal 2022.

	March 31, 2022
Accounts receivable, net	$	5,107
Inventory	9,871
Prepaid expenses and other current assets	542
Property, plant & equipment	9,198
Identifiable intangible assets	193,800

Deferred income taxes	(42,252)
Goodwill	94,071
Accounts payable & accrued expenses	(9,082)
Operating lease liabilities	(4,225)
	$	260,870

The fair values assigned to identifiable intangible assets acquired were based on assumptions and estimates made by management. Of the $193,800 of identifiable intangible assets acquired, $70,800 was preliminarily assigned to customer relationships with a weighted average estimated useful life of 17 years, and $123,000 was preliminarily assigned to tradenames with indefinite lives. The goodwill recorded as a result of this acquisition is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.

Results of THWR are included in the United States operating segment, a component of the North America reportable segment. THWR's net sales included in our consolidated results were 5.0% and 1.8% of consolidated net sales for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022.

The following table provides unaudited pro forma results of continuing operations had the acquisition been completed at the beginning of fiscal 2021. The proforma information reflects certain adjustments related to the acquisition but does not reflect any potential operating efficiencies or cost savings that may result from the acquisition. Accordingly, this information has been provided for illustrative purposes only and does not purport to be indicative of the actual results that would have been achieved by the Company for the periods presented or that will be achieved by the combined company in the future. The pro forma information has been adjusted to give effect to items that are directly attributable to the transactions and are expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results.

	Unaudited supplemental pro forma information
	Three Months Ended March 31,				Nine Months Ended March 31,
	2022		2021		2022		2021
Net sales	$	502,939	$	514,867	$	1,488,483	$	1,584,194

Diluted net income per common share from continuing operations	$	0.30	$	0.30	$	0.86	$	0.27

(1)The pro forma adjustments include the elimination of transaction costs totaling $5,103 from the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and recognition of those costs in the nine months ended March 31, 2021. Additionally, the pro forma adjustments include the elimination of integration costs and a fair value inventory adjustment totaling $1,500 and $1,800, respectively, for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 and recognition of those costs in the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021.

Dispositions

GG UniqueFiber®

On June 28, 2021, the Company completed the divestiture of its crispbread crackers business, GG UniqueFiber® (“GG”) for total cash consideration of $336. The sale of GG is consistent with the Company’s transformation and portfolio simplification process. GG operated in Norway and was part of the Company’s International reportable segment. The Company deconsolidated the net assets of GG during the twelve months ended June 30, 2021, recognizing a pre-tax loss on sale of $3,753 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021.

Dream® and WestSoy®

On April 15, 2021, the Company completed the divestiture of its North America non-dairy beverages business, consisting of the Dream® and WestSoy® brands, for total cash consideration of $33,000, subject to customary post-closing adjustments. The final purchase price was $31,320. The non-dairy beverage business was considered to be non-core within our broader North American business, and the sale aligns with the Company’s portfolio simplification process. The business operated out of the United States and Canada and was part of the Company’s North America reportable segment. The Company deconsolidated the net assets of the North American non-dairy beverage business during the twelve months ended June 30, 2021, recognizing a pre-tax gain on sale of $7,519 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021.

Fruit

In August 2020, the Company's Board of Directors approved a plan to sell its prepared fresh fruit, fresh fruit drinks and fresh fruit desserts division ("Fruit"), primarily consisting of the Orchard House® Foods Limited business and associated brands. This decision supported the Company's overall strategy as the Fruit business did not align, and had limited synergies, with the rest of the Company's businesses. The Fruit business operated in the U.K. and was part of the Company’s International reportable segment. The Company determined that the held for sale criteria was met and classified the assets and liabilities of the Fruit business as held for sale as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2020, recognizing a pre-tax non-cash loss to reduce the carrying value to its estimated fair value less costs to sell of $56,093 during the nine months ended March 31, 2021. The sale was completed on January 13, 2021 for a total cash consideration of $38,547, recognizing a pre-tax loss on sale of $1,904 during the third quarter of fiscal 2021.

Danival

The Company entered into a definitive stock purchase agreement on June 30, 2020 for the sale of its Danival business, a component of the International reportable segment, and the transaction closed on July 21, 2020. The Company deconsolidated the net assets of the Danival business upon closing of the sale during the quarter ended September 30, 2020, recognizing a pre-tax gain on sale of $611 during the first quarter of fiscal 2021.

Discontinued Operations

Sale of Tilda Business

On August 27, 2019, the Company sold the entities comprising the Tilda Group Entities and certain other assets of the Tilda business for an aggregate price of $342,000 in cash, subject to customary post-closing adjustments based on the balance sheets of the Tilda business. The disposition of the Tilda operating segment represented a strategic shift that had a major impact on the Company’s operations and financial results and has been accounted for as discontinued operations. Net income from discontinued operations, net of tax in our Consolidated Statements of Operations was nil for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021 as well as for the nine months ended March 31, 2022. The following table presents the major classes of Tilda’s results within Net income from discontinued operations, net of tax in our Consolidated Statements of Operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2021:

	Nine Months Ended March 31,

LEASES

LEASES

The Company leases office space, warehouse and distribution facilities, manufacturing equipment and vehicles primarily in North America and Europe. The Company determines if an arrangement is or contains a lease at inception. Lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise that option. The Company’s lease agreements generally do not contain residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

Some of the Company’s leases contain variable lease payments, which are expensed as incurred unless those payments are based on an index or rate. Variable lease payments based on an index or rate are initially measured using the index or rate in effect at lease commencement and included in the measurement of the lease liability; thereafter, changes to lease payments due to rate or index changes are recorded as variable lease expense in the period incurred. The Company does not have any related party leases, and sublease transactions are de minimis.

Amended and Restated Credit Agreement

On December 22, 2021, the Company refinanced its revolving credit facility by entering into a Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides for senior secured financing of $1,100,000 in the aggregate, consisting of (1) $300,000 in aggregate principal amount of term loans (the "Term Loans") and (2) an $800,000 senior secured revolving credit facility (which includes borrowing capacity available for letters of credit, and is comprised of a $440,000 U.S. revolving credit facility and $360,000 global revolving credit facility) (the "Revolver"). Both the Revolver and the Term Loans mature on December 22, 2026. As of March 31, 2022, there were $538,000 of loans under the Revolver, $298,125 of Term Loans, and $8,919 letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement provides that loans will bear interest at rates based on (a) the Eurodollar Rate plus a rate ranging from 0.875% to 1.75% per annum or (b) the Base Rate plus a rate ranging from 0.00% to 0.75% per annum, the relevant rate being the Applicable Rate. The Applicable Rate will be determined in accordance with a leverage-based pricing grid, as set forth in the Credit Agreement. Swing Line Loans and Global Swing Line Loans denominated in U.S. Dollars will bear interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate, and Global Swing Line Loans denominated in foreign currencies shall bear interest based on (a) the Euro Short Term Rate, or €STR, in the case of such loans denominated in Euros plus the Applicable Rate, (b) the Sterling Overnight Index Average Reference Rate, or SONIA, in the case of such loans denominated in Sterling plus the Applicable Rate or (c) the Canadian Prime Rate plus the Applicable Rate. The weighted average interest rate on outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement at March 31, 2022 was 1.67%. Additionally, the Credit Agreement contains a Commitment Fee on the amount unused under the Credit Agreement ranging from 0.15% to 0.25% per annum, and such Commitment Fee is determined in accordance with a leverage-based pricing grid.

The Credit Agreement includes maintenance covenants that will require compliance with a consolidated interest coverage ratio, a consolidated secured leverage ratio and a consolidated leverage ratio. As of March 31, 2022, $253,081 was available under the Credit Agreement, and the Company was in compliance with all associated covenants.

In connection with the Credit Agreement, the Company and its material domestic subsidiaries entered into an Amended and Restated Security and Pledge Agreement (the “Security Agreement”), pursuant to which all of the obligations under the Credit Agreement will be secured by liens on assets of the Company and its material domestic subsidiaries, including the equity interests in each of their direct subsidiaries and intellectual property, subject to agreed-upon exceptions.

Credit Agreement Issuance Costs

Based on the Company's evaluation of the borrowing capacity associated with the creditors participating in the previous facility compared to those in the Credit Agreement, $1,762 of the $2,036 of unamortized deferred financing costs at December 22, 2021 were deferred and the remaining $274 were expensed as a component of Interest and other financing expense, net on our Consolidated Statement of Operations. Additionally, the Company incurred debt issuance costs of approximately $2,764 in connection with the Credit Agreement. Of the total $4,526 of deferred debt issuance costs, $3,292 were associated with the Revolver and are being amortized on a straight-line basis within Other assets on our Consolidated Balance Sheet, and $1,234 are being amortized on a straight-line basis, which approximates the effective interest method, as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the Term Loans as a component of Interest and other financing expense, net on our Consolidated Statement of Operations over the term of the Credit Agreement.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

INCOME TAXES

INCOME TAXES

In general, the Company uses an estimated annual effective tax rate, which is based on expected annual income and statutory tax rates in the various jurisdictions in which the Company operates, to determine its quarterly provision for income taxes. Certain significant or unusual items are separately recognized in the quarter in which they occur and can be a source of variability on the effective tax rates from quarter to quarter. The Company’s effective tax rate may change from period-to-period based on recurring and non-recurring factors including the geographical mix of earnings, enacted tax legislation, state and local income taxes and tax audit settlements.

The effective income tax rate from continuing operations was an expense of 23.7% and 25.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The effective income tax rate from continuing operations was an expense of 20.3% and 55.5% for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The effective income tax rate from continuing operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 was impacted by the reversal of uncertain tax position accruals based on filing and approval of certain elections by taxing authorities, deductions related to stock-based compensation, non-deductible transaction costs related to the acquisition of THWR (see Note 4, Acquisitions and Dispositions), the reversal of a valuation allowance due to the utilization of a capital loss carryover and the finalization of fiscal year 2021 U.S. income tax returns. The effective income tax rate from continuing operations for the nine months ended March 31, 2021 was negatively impacted by various discrete items including the tax impact of the United Kingdom Fruit business reserve, the legal entity reorganization, and the U.K. rate change. The effective income tax rates in each period were also impacted by the geographical mix of earnings and state valuation allowance.

The income tax benefit from discontinued operations was nil for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022, while the income tax from discontinued operations was nil and a benefit of $11,320 for the three and nine months ended March 31, 2021, respectively. The benefit for income tax for the nine months ended March 31, 2021 was impacted by a legal entity reorganization.

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS MEASURED AT FAIR VALUE

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS MEASURED AT FAIR VALUE

FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS MEASURED AT FAIR VALUE

The Company’s financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value are required to be grouped in one of three levels. The levels prioritize the inputs used to measure the fair value of the assets or liabilities. These levels are:

•Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;

•Level 2 – Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs which are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability; and

•Level 3 – Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported by little or no market activity).

The following table presents assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of March 31, 2022: 

	Total		Quoted prices in active markets (Level 1)		Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)		Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)
Assets:
Derivative financial instruments	$	2,698	$	—	$	2,698	$	—
Equity investment	603		603		—		—
Total	$	3,301	$	603	$	2,698	$	—
Liabilities:
Derivative financial instruments	$	3,841	—		$	3,841	—
Total	$	3,841	$	—	$	3,841	$	—

The following table presents assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of June 30, 2021:

	Total		Quoted prices in active markets (Level 1)		Significant other observable inputs (Level 2)		Significant unobservable inputs (Level 3)
Assets:
Derivative financial instruments	$	699	$	—	$	699	$	—
Equity investment	646		646		—		—
Total	$	1,345	$	646	$	699	$	—
Liabilities:
Derivative financial instruments	11,968		—		11,968		—
Total	$	11,968	$	—	$	11,968	$	—

The equity investment consists of the Company’s less than 1% investment in Yeo Hiap Seng Limited, a food and beverage manufacturer and distributor based in Singapore. Fair value is measured using the market approach based on quoted prices. The Company utilizes the income approach to measure fair value for its foreign currency forward contracts. The income approach uses pricing models that rely on market observable inputs such as yield curves, currency exchange rates and forward prices.

There were no transfers of financial instruments between the three levels of fair value hierarchy during the nine months ended March 31, 2022 or 2021.

The carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, net, accounts payable and certain accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate fair value due to the short-term maturities of these financial instruments. The Company’s debt approximates fair value due to the debt bearing fluctuating market interest rates (see Note 9, Debt and Borrowings).

In addition to the instruments named above, the Company makes fair value measurements in connection with its interim and annual goodwill and tradename impairment testing and accounting for acquisitions. These measurements fall into Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy (See Note 8, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets).

Derivative Instruments

The Company uses interest rate swaps to manage its interest rate risk and cross-currency swaps and foreign currency exchange contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The valuation of these instruments is determined using widely accepted valuation techniques, including discounted cash flow analysis on the expected cash flows of each derivative. This analysis reflects the contractual terms of the derivatives, including the period to maturity, and uses observable market-based inputs, including interest rate curves and implied volatilities. The fair values of interest rate swaps are determined using the market standard methodology of netting the discounted future fixed cash receipts (or payments) and the discounted expected variable cash payments (or receipts). The variable cash payments (or receipts) are based on an expectation of future interest rates (forward curves) derived from observable market interest rate curves.

In accordance with the provisions of ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements, the Company incorporates credit valuation adjustments to appropriately reflect both the Company’s nonperformance risk and the respective counterparty’s nonperformance risk in the fair value measurements. In adjusting the fair value of the Company’s derivative contracts for the effect of nonperformance risk, the Company has considered the impact of netting and any applicable credit enhancements, such as collateral postings, thresholds, mutual puts and guarantees.

Although the Company has determined that the majority of the inputs used to value its derivatives fall within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the credit valuation adjustments associated with its derivatives utilize Level 3 inputs, such as estimates of current credit spreads to evaluate the likelihood of default by the Company and its counterparties. The Company has determined that the significance of the impact of the credit valuation adjustments made to its derivative contracts, which determination was based on the fair value of each individual contract, was not significant to the overall valuation. As a result, all of the derivatives held as of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021 were classified as Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.

The fair value estimates presented in the fair value hierarchy tables above are based on information available to management as of March 31, 2022 and June 30, 2021. These estimates are not necessarily indicative of the amounts we could ultimately realize.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives

The Company is exposed to certain risks arising from both its business operations and economic conditions. The Company principally manages its exposures to a wide variety of business and operational risks through management of its core business activities. The Company manages economic risks, including interest rate, liquidity and credit risk primarily by managing the amount, sources and duration of its assets and liabilities and the use of derivative financial instruments. Specifically, the Company enters into derivative financial instruments to manage exposures that arise from business activities that result in the receipt or payment of future known and uncertain cash amounts, the value of which are determined by interest rates. The Company’s derivative financial instruments are used to manage differences in the amount, timing and duration of the Company’s known or expected cash receipts and its known or expected cash payments principally related to the Company’s receivables and borrowings.

Certain of the Company’s foreign operations expose the Company to fluctuations of foreign exchange rates. These fluctuations may impact the value of the Company’s cash receipts and payments in terms of the Company’s functional currency. The Company enters into derivative financial instruments to protect the value or fix the amount of certain assets and liabilities in terms of its functional currency, the U.S. Dollar.

Accordingly, the Company uses derivative financial instruments to manage and mitigate such risks. The Company does not use derivatives for speculative or trading purposes.

Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk

The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to manage its exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, the Company primarily uses interest rate swaps as part of its interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps designated as cash flow hedges involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount. During the three and nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, such derivatives were used to hedge the variable cash flows associated with existing variable rate debt.

For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in AOCL and subsequently reclassified into interest expense in the same period during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Amounts reported in AOCL related to derivatives will be reclassified to interest expense as interest payments are made on the Company’s variable rate debt. During the remaining three months of fiscal 2022, the Company estimates that an additional $301 will be reclassified as an increase to interest expense.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had the following outstanding interest rate derivatives that were designated as cash flow hedges of interest rate risk:

Interest Rate Derivative	Number of Instruments	Notional Amount
Interest Rate Swap	4	$230,000

Cash Flow Hedges of Foreign Exchange Risk

The Company is exposed to fluctuations in various foreign currencies against its functional currency, the U.S. Dollar. The Company uses foreign currency derivatives including cross-currency swaps to manage its exposure to fluctuations in the USD-EUR exchange rates. Cross-currency swaps involve exchanging fixed-rate interest payments for fixed-rate interest receipts, both of which will occur at the USD-EUR forward exchange rates in effect upon entering into the instrument. The Company, at times, also uses forward contracts to manage its exposure to fluctuations in the GBP-EUR exchange rates. The Company designates these derivatives as cash flow hedges of foreign exchange risk.

For derivatives designated and that qualify as cash flow hedges of foreign exchange risk, the gain or loss on the derivative is recorded in AOCL and subsequently reclassified in the period(s) during which the hedged transaction affects earnings within

the same income statement line item as the earnings effect of the hedged transaction. During the remaining three months of fiscal 2022, the Company estimates that an additional $47 relating to cross-currency swaps will be reclassified as a decrease to interest expense.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had the following outstanding foreign currency derivatives that were used to hedge its foreign exchange risk:

Foreign Currency Derivative	Number of Instruments	Notional Sold	Notional Purchased
Cross-currency swap	1	€24,700	$26,775
Foreign currency forward contract	3	£2,515	€3,000

Net Investment Hedges

The Company is exposed to fluctuations in foreign exchange rates on investments it holds in its European foreign entities and their exposure to the Euro. The Company uses fixed-to-fixed cross-currency swaps to hedge its exposure to changes in the foreign exchange rate on its foreign investment in Europe. Currency forward agreements involve fixing the USD-EUR exchange rate for delivery of a specified amount of foreign currency on a specified date. The currency forward agreements are typically cash settled in U.S. Dollars for their fair value at or close to their settlement date. Cross-currency swaps involve the receipt of functional-currency-fixed-rate amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the Company making foreign-currency fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreement.

For derivatives designated as net investment hedges, the gain or loss on the derivative is reported in AOCL as part of the cumulative translation adjustment. Amounts are reclassified out of AOCL into earnings when the hedged net investment is either sold or substantially liquidated.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had the following outstanding foreign currency derivatives that were used to hedge its net investments in foreign operations:

Foreign Currency Derivative	Number of Instruments	Notional Sold	Notional Purchased
Cross-currency swap	2	€76,969	$83,225

Non-Designated Hedges

Derivatives not designated as hedges are not speculative and are used to manage the Company’s exposure to interest rate movements and other identified risks but do not meet the strict hedge accounting requirements and/or the Company has not elected to apply hedge accounting. Changes in the fair value of derivatives not designated in hedging relationships are recorded directly in earnings.

As of March 31, 2022, the Company had no outstanding derivatives that were not designated as hedges in qualifying hedging relationships.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Securities Class Actions Filed in Federal Court

On August 17, 2016, three securities class action complaints were filed in the Eastern District of New York (the "District Court") against the Company alleging violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The three complaints are: (1) Flora v. The Hain Celestial Group, Inc., et al. (the “Flora Complaint”); (2) Lynn v. The Hain Celestial Group, Inc., et al. (the “Lynn Complaint”); and (3) Spadola v. The Hain Celestial Group, Inc., et al. (the “Spadola Complaint” and, together with the Flora and Lynn Complaints, the “Securities Complaints”). On June 5, 2017, the District Court issued an order for consolidation, appointment of Co-Lead Plaintiffs and approval of selection of co-lead counsel. Pursuant to this order, the Securities Complaints were consolidated under the caption In re The Hain Celestial Group, Inc. Securities Litigation (the “Consolidated Securities Action”), and Rosewood Funeral Home and Salamon Gimpel were appointed as Co-Lead Plaintiffs. On June 21, 2017, the Company received notice that plaintiff Spadola voluntarily dismissed his claims without prejudice to his ability to participate in the Consolidated Securities Action as an absent class member. The Co-Lead Plaintiffs in the Consolidated Securities Action filed a Consolidated Amended Complaint on August 4, 2017 and a Corrected Consolidated Amended Complaint on September 7, 2017 on behalf of a purported class consisting of all persons who purchased or otherwise acquired Hain Celestial securities between November 5, 2013 and February 10, 2017 (the “Amended Complaint”). The Amended Complaint named as defendants the Company and certain of its former officers (collectively, “Defendants”) and asserted violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 based on allegedly materially false or misleading statements and omissions in public statements, press releases and SEC filings regarding the Company’s business, prospects, financial results and internal controls. Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Amended Complaint on October 3, 2017 which the District Court granted on March 29, 2019, dismissing the case in its entirety, without prejudice to replead. Co-Lead Plaintiffs filed a Second Amended Consolidated Class Action Complaint on May 6, 2019 (the “Second Amended Complaint”). The Second Amended Complaint again named as defendants the Company and certain of its former officers and asserts violations of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 based on allegations similar to those in the Amended Complaint, including materially false or misleading statements and omissions in public statements, press releases and SEC filings regarding the Company’s business, prospects, financial results and internal controls. Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint on June 20, 2019. On April 6, 2020, the District Court granted Defendants' motion to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint in its entirety, with prejudice. Co-Lead Plaintiffs appealed the District Court’s decision dismissing the Second Amended Complaint to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit (the "Second Circuit"). By decision dated December 17, 2021, the Second Circuit vacated the District Court’s judgment and remanded the case for further proceedings. On April 6, 2022, the District Court issued an order directing the parties to submit position papers outlining their views regarding: (a) the scope of the Court's reconsideration of Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss the Second Amended Complaint; and (b) the appropriate procedure the Court should follow in light of the Second Circuit's opinion. On April 14, 2022, the District Court entered an order setting the schedule for, and determining the scope of, supplemental briefing on Defendants’ Motion to Dismiss the Second Amended Complaint, which is due to be fully briefed on or before June 23, 2022.

Additional Stockholder Class Action and Derivative Complaints Filed in Federal Court

On April 19, 2017 and April 26, 2017, two class action and stockholder derivative complaints were filed in the Eastern District of New York against the former Board of Directors and certain former officers of the Company under the captions Silva v. Simon, et al. (the “Silva Complaint”) and Barnes v. Simon, et al. (the “Barnes Complaint”), respectively. Both the Silva Complaint and the Barnes Complaint allege violation of securities law, breach of fiduciary duty, waste of corporate assets and unjust enrichment.

On May 23, 2017, an additional stockholder filed a complaint under seal in the Eastern District of New York against the former Board of Directors and certain former officers of the Company. The complaint alleged that the Company’s former directors and certain former officers made materially false and misleading statements in press releases and SEC filings regarding the Company’s business, prospects and financial results. The complaint also alleged that the Company violated its by-laws and Delaware law by failing to hold its 2016 Annual Stockholders Meeting and includes claims for breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment and corporate waste. On August 9, 2017, the District Court granted an order to unseal this case and reveal Gary Merenstein as the plaintiff (the “Merenstein Complaint”).

On August 10, 2017, the District Court granted the parties' stipulation to consolidate the Barnes Complaint, the Silva Complaint and the Merenstein Complaint under the caption In re The Hain Celestial Group, Inc. Stockholder Class and Derivative Litigation (the “Consolidated Stockholder Class and Derivative Action”) and to appoint Robbins Arroyo LLP and Scott+Scott as Co-Lead Counsel, with the Law Offices of Thomas G. Amon as Liaison Counsel for Plaintiffs. On September 14, 2017, a related complaint was filed under the caption Oliver v. Berke, et al. (the “Oliver Complaint”), and on October 6, 2017, the Oliver Complaint was consolidated with the Consolidated Stockholder Class and Derivative Action. The Plaintiffs filed their consolidated amended complaint under seal on October 26, 2017. On December 20, 2017, the parties agreed to stay Defendants’ time to answer, move, or otherwise respond to the consolidated amended complaint through and including 30 days after a decision was rendered on the motion to dismiss the Amended Complaint in the Consolidated Securities Action, described above.

On March 29, 2019, the District Court in the Consolidated Securities Action granted Defendants’ motion, dismissing the Amended Complaint in its entirety, without prejudice to replead. Co-Lead Plaintiffs in the Consolidated Securities Action filed the Second Amended Complaint on May 6, 2019. The parties to the Consolidated Stockholder Class and Derivative Action agreed to continue the stay of Defendants’ time to answer, move, or otherwise respond to the consolidated amended complaint through 30 days after a decision on Defendants' motion to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint in the Consolidated Securities Action.

On April 6, 2020, the District Court granted Defendants’ motion to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint in the Consolidated Securities Action, with prejudice. Pursuant to the terms of the stay, Defendants in the Consolidated Stockholder Class and Derivative Action had until May 6, 2020 to answer, move, or otherwise respond to the complaint in this matter. This deadline was extended, and Defendants moved to dismiss the Consolidated Stockholder Class and Derivative Action Complaint on June 23, 2020, with Plaintiffs’ opposition due August 7, 2020.

On July 24, 2020, Plaintiffs made a stockholder litigation demand on the current Board containing overlapping factual allegations to those set forth in the Consolidated Stockholder Class and Derivative Action. On August 10, 2020, the District Court vacated the briefing schedule on Defendants’ pending motion to dismiss in order to give the Board of Directors time to consider the demand. On each of September 8 and October 8, 2020, the District Court extended its stay of any applicable deadlines for 30 days to give the Board of Directors additional time to complete its evaluation of the demand. On November 3, 2020, Plaintiffs were informed that the Board of Directors had finished investigating and resolved, among other things, that the demand should be rejected. On November 6, 2020, Plaintiffs and Defendants notified the District Court that Plaintiffs were evaluating the rejection of the demand, sought certain additional information and were assessing next steps, and requested that the District Court extend the stay for an additional 30 days, to on or around December 7, 2020. The Parties then filed a number of additional joint status reports, requesting that the District Court continue the stay of applicable deadlines through December 30, 2021. In light of the Second Circuit vacating the District Court’s judgment in the Consolidated Securities Action referenced above and remanding the case for further proceedings, the Parties submitted a joint status report on December 29, 2021 requesting that the District Court continue the temporary stay pending the District Court’s reconsideration of the Defendants’ motion to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint in the Consolidated Securities Action. The District Court has extended the temporary stay through December 30, 2022.

Baby Food Litigation

Since February 2021, a large number of consumer class actions have been brought against the Company alleging that the Company’s Earth’s Best baby food products (the “Products”) contain unsafe and undisclosed levels of various naturally occurring heavy metals, namely lead, arsenic, cadmium and mercury. There are currently 29 active lawsuits, which generally allege that the Company violated various state consumer protection laws and make other state and common law warranty and unjust enrichment claims related to the alleged failure to disclose the presence of these metals and that consumers would have allegedly either not purchased the Products or would have paid less for them had the Company made adequate disclosures. These putative class actions seek to certify a nationwide class of consumers as well as various state subclasses. One of the consumer class actions (Kathryn Gavula, et al. v. Beech-Nut Nutrition Co., et al.) filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Oregon alleges that the Company violated the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (“RICO”) by conspiring

with other baby food manufacturers to conceal the presence of these heavy metals in our respective products. These actions have been filed against all of the major baby food manufacturers in federal courts across the country. The U.S. Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation (“JPML”) declined a request to centralize all of the consumer class action lawsuits against all of the baby food manufacturers into a single multidistrict proceeding, and all but one of these cases against the Company have now been transferred and consolidated in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York into a proceeding captioned In re Hain Celestial Heavy Metals Baby Food Litigation, Case No. 2:21-cv-678 (the "Consolidated Proceeding"). The Court appointed interim class counsel for Plaintiffs in the Consolidated Proceeding, and Plaintiffs filed a Consolidated Amended Class Action Complaint on March 18, 2022. The Company intends to file a motion to dismiss the Consolidated Amended Class Action Complaint, but no briefing schedule has been set. One consumer class action is pending in New York Supreme Court, Nassau County. The Company has moved to stay or transfer this case to the Consolidated Proceeding and that motion is pending. The Company denies the allegations in these lawsuits and contends that its baby foods are safe and properly labeled.

The claims raised in these lawsuits were brought in the wake of a highly publicized report issued by the U.S. House of Representatives Subcommittee on Economic and Consumer Policy on Oversight and Reform, dated February 4, 2021 (the “House Report”), addressing the presence of heavy metals in baby foods made by certain manufacturers, including the Company. Since the publishing of the House Report, the Company has also received information requests with respect to the advertising and quality of its baby foods from certain governmental authorities, as such authorities investigate the claims made in the House Report. The Company is fully cooperating with these requests and is providing documents and other requested information. The Company has been named in one civil government enforcement action, State of New Mexico ex rel. Balderas v. Nurture, Inc., et al., which was filed by the New Mexico Attorney General against the Company and several other manufacturers based on the alleged presence of heavy metals in their baby food products. The Company and several other manufacturers moved to dismiss the New Mexico Attorney General’s lawsuit, which motion the Court denied. The Company filed its answer to the New Mexico Attorney General’s amended complaint on April 23, 2022. The Company denies the New Mexico Attorney General’s allegations and maintains that its baby foods are safe, properly labeled, and compliant with New Mexico law.

In addition to the consumer class actions discussed above, the Company is currently named in five lawsuits in state and federal courts alleging some form of personal injury from the ingestion of the Company’s Products, purportedly due to unsafe and undisclosed levels of various naturally occurring heavy metals. Three of these lawsuits name multiple plaintiffs alleging claims of physical injuries. These lawsuits generally allege injuries related to neurological development disorders such as autism and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. The Company denies that its Products led to any of these injuries and will defend the cases vigorously.

Other

In addition to the litigation described above, the Company is and may be a defendant in lawsuits from time to time in the normal course of business.

With respect to all litigation and related matters, the Company records a liability when the Company believes it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated. For the matters disclosed in this note, if the Company determines that a liability is probable and the loss can be reasonably estimated, the Company discloses the liability recorded. As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company has not recorded a liability for any of the matters disclosed in this note. It is possible that some matters could require the Company to pay damages, incur other costs or establish accruals in amounts that could not be reasonably estimated as of the end of the period covered by this report.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

SEGMENT INFORMATION

SEGMENT INFORMATION

Our organization structure consists of two geographic based reportable segments: North America and International. Our North America reportable segment consists of the United States and Canada as operating segments. Our International reportable segment is comprised of three operating segments: United Kingdom, Ella’s Kitchen UK and Europe. This structure is in line with how our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) assesses our performance and allocates resources.

We use segment net sales and operating income to evaluate performance and to allocate resources. We believe these measures are most relevant in order to analyze segment results and trends. Segment operating income excludes certain general corporate expenses (which are a component of selling, general and administrative expenses), impairment and acquisition related expenses, restructuring, integration and other charges.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The Company’s unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in affiliated companies in which the Company exerts significant influence, but which it does not control, are accounted for under the equity method of accounting. As such, consolidated net income includes the Company's equity in the current earnings or losses of such companies.

The Company's unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP and should be read in conjunction with the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021 (the “Form 10-K”). The amounts as of and for the periods ended June 30, 2021 are derived from the Company’s audited annual financial statements. The unaudited consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments which, in management’s opinion, are necessary for a fair presentation for interim periods. Operating results for the nine months ended March 31, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2022. Please refer to the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements as of June 30, 2021 and for the fiscal year then ended included in the Form 10-K for information not included in these condensed notes.

All amounts in the unaudited consolidated financial statements, notes and tables have been rounded to the nearest thousand, except par values and per share amounts, unless otherwise indicated.

Significant Accounting Policies

Significant Accounting Policies

The Company's significant accounting policies are described in Note 2, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies and Practices, in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in the Form 10-K. Included herein are certain updates to those policies.

Transfer of Financial Assets

Transfer of Financial Assets

The Company has non-recourse accounts receivable financing arrangements in which eligible receivables are sold to third-party buyers in exchange for cash. The Company transferred accounts receivable in their entirety to the buyers and satisfied all of the conditions to report the transfer of financial assets in their entirety as a sale. The principal amount of receivables sold under these arrangements was $112,607 and $59,871 during the nine months ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The incremental cost

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, which requires an acquirer to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination on the acquisition date in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, as if it had originated the contracts. This approach differs from the current requirement to measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination at fair value. The Company adopted ASU 2021-08 during the second quarter of fiscal year 2022, and the adoption did not have an impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides temporary optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions affected by reference rate reform. ASU 2020-04 is currently effective and upon adoption may be applied prospectively to contract modifications made on or before December 31, 2022. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope, which clarifies certain provisions in Topic 848, if elected by an entity, to apply to derivative instruments that use an interest rate for margining, discounting, or contract price alignment that is modified as a result of reference rate reform. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2022, the Company adopted the hedge accounting expedients related to probability and the assessments of effectiveness for future LIBOR-indexed cash flows to assume that the index upon which future hedged transactions will be based matches the index on the corresponding derivatives. Application of these expedients preserves the presentation of derivatives consistent with past presentation. The Company continues to evaluate the impact of the guidance and may apply other elections as applicable as additional changes in the market occur.
