Key The Hain Celestial Group News

Here are the key news stories impacting The Hain Celestial Group this week:

• Neutral Sentiment: Zacks Research issued a batch of forward EPS estimates and kept a “Hold” rating on HAIN, projecting loss-year FY2026 (-$0.15) before returning to modest profitability in FY2027 ($0.16) and FY2028 ($0.22). The note updates quarterly cadence through Q2 2028 and signals gradual recovery rather than an immediate catalyst.
• Negative Sentiment: Short interest jumped sharply in February to 10.08M shares (up ~49.7% month‑over‑month), representing about 11.3% of float and ~2.7 days‑to‑cover — higher shorting can amplify downside pressure and volatility for HAIN shares.
• Negative Sentiment: Recent U.S. Supreme Court activity on baby‑food litigation could raise legal and reputational risk across food brands (state‑court suits allowed to proceed; rulings rebuking lower courts). While Hain is not named in these articles, the rulings increase sector regulatory and liability scrutiny that investors may price into natural/consumer‑food stocks.
