“We ended the year with record net sales and earnings growth fueled by strong worldwide demand for our diverse portfolio of leading organic and natural brands across many product categories, sales channels and geographies,” said Irwin D. Simon, Founder, President and Chief Executive Officer of Hain Celestial. “We achieved these results while overcoming numerous challenges during the year including the largest voluntary recall in the Company’s history, a fire that limited production for one of our largest brands and disruptions with some of our distributor and retail customers. Our global team did a tremendous job in both the fourth quarter and fiscal year with product innovation, controlling expenses, improving productivity and successfully integrating acquisitions by leveraging our infrastructure.”

Hain Celestial US reported record fourth quarter net sales of $332.8 million.

Net sales of Rudi’s Organic Bakery®, Plainville Farms®, FreeBird®, Empire®, Kosher Valley® and Live Clean® brands acquired during or after the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2014 also contributed to the growth.
The Company earned net income from continuing operations of $71.1 million, a 99% increase, and adjusted net income of $57.2 million, a 24% increase, compared to the prior year fourth quarter.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release and the accompanying tables include non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted operating income, adjusted income from continuing operations, adjusted income per diluted share from continuing operations, adjusted EBITDA (defined below) and operating free cash flow. The reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in the tables “Reconciliation of GAAP Results to Non-GAAP Measures” for the three and twelve months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014 and in the paragraphs below. Management believes that the non-GAAP financial measures presented provide useful additional information to investors about current trends in the Company’s operations and are useful for period-over-period comparisons of operations. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the comparable GAAP measures. In addition, these non-GAAP measures may not be the same as similar measures provided by other companies due to potential differences in methods of calculation and items being excluded. They should be read only in connection with the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income presented in accordance with GAAP.
The Company defines adjusted EBITDA as net income (a GAAP measure) before income taxes, net interest expense, depreciation and amortization, impairment of long lived assets, equity in the earnings of non-consolidated affiliates, stock based compensation, acquisition-related expenses, including integration and restructuring charges, and other non-recurring items. 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 executive compensation.
For the three and twelve months ended June 30, 2015 and 2014, adjusted EBITDA was calculated as follows:
