The Hain Celestial Group, Inc. (NASDAQ:HAIN)

possibly 20 years of good growth ahead

Hain is attached to the long term theme of the battle of overweight and obesity and america. Hain is a healthy and organic food supplier who will benefit in the long run from this trend. Also the organic food industry is predicted to grow from 28.5 bill to over 42 bill in 2015

Americans are finally waking up and smelling the soybeans!! One of your best investments is your health, and I believe consumers are coming to terms with that. Paying just a little more for healthier options is well worth it, and this company is right in the middle of that.

a play on the future of america.

people addicted to their teas-organics is growing and Monster gives them free promotion/placement for their other products sell it at 29.40(wild guess)

The way we look at food is changing and this company looks like it has what it takes to enjoy the ride up.

Organics. A growing industry and with growing concerns over what our kids are eating - its a long term winner. Not to mention they also make Monster Energy drinks, which is an obvious advantage.

They buy profitable companies in organics which I see as a growing industry.

Revenues have been growing about 15-18% per year. They have financed a lot of acquisitions using retained earnings and (only) $150M of debt. Except for (a certain quarter in) FY09, they have consistently earned money and generated cash...to support further expansion. Growth can't continue forever at the pace of the last few years, but their stable of brands should experience some intrinsic growth. Meanwhile, market cap is approximately book value. Look for some growth of share price.

Long term: Kraft target?

While some of HAIN's brands & products are only posing as "green", others are legit, and either way are healthier and more natural than the mainstream. Thumbs Up.

Hain has some of the best known brands in organic foods and natural products. They've positioned themselves into "mainstream" grocery stores and out of the "natural" foods sections increasing sales. During the past year, Hain has worked hard to control input and distribution costs and consolidate or jetison non-performing brands.

Solid investment at a bargain price and a Sustainably minded company to boot! I'm sold.

The products look right and I think quality sells. The management seem to have their heads on right.

I think this is slightly overvalued but I know long term it will be a winner. A very diversified group of natural health companies, I use many of their products and it is hard to avoid some in the health food store.

With the growing concern over where your food comes from and what is in it. I believe this company will continue to grow. I gave my baby their Earth's Best baby food because it was certified organic and want to make sure my child was not getting any preservatives. Also, we used Tushies diapers, which was purchased recently by this company. They seem to be a very affordable natural diaper. This company does a lot more then baby stuff, but this has been my experience with their products. I beleive this company will outperform, especially since it seems to have weathered some tough times in the stock market of late.
