Thank you, Mary and good morning everyone. And we appreciate you joining us this last week of August. What a year it's been. I’m extremely proud of all the work that has been accomplished by our team. Building upon a strong team, as well as our core growth plans, our cost saving initiatives through Project Terra, we have made significant progress. All of our business segments delivered constant currency net sales growth during the fourth quarter, as we gain momentum throughout the year in delivering on our strategic plan and investments. The U.S. team, led like Gary Tickle, has done a great job. We’re pleased, net sales grew 2% on a constant currency basis in the fourth quarter. We accomplished this even with our decision to reduce our U.S. fuel count by 20%, the most comprehensive SKU rationalization in the Company’s history. This, and our inventory realignment, reduced net sales by approximately $60 million, and Gary will take you through the benefits that we’re seeing for us. Across natural MULO, club, Amazon, our consumption was up 6% for the top 500 SKUs, which represents 94% of our sales. As the industry has evolved so we at Hain Celestial; what has made us so successful? What will drive our continued success in the future is our ability to evolve our business as we grow our Better-for-You brands, expand relationships with new and existing customers and attract many, many new consumers globally. Across our organic and natural Better-for-You brands, we are well position in some of the most exciting and fastest growing product categories around the world. Before I address our path ahead, I’d like to focus on our total company and segment results in a little more detail. We are really pleased that our fourth quarter and fiscal year 2017, on…

Thank you, Irwin. It’s my pleasure to present the fourth quarter and full year results for the U.S. business. U.S. food retail landscape has continued to evolve as the shopping occasions fragment across the traditional supermarkets, ecommerce, club, and specialty channels. The customer and channel centric strategies, we are executing today, directly respond to this environment. I continue to see significant opportunities for Hain Celestial to engage the natural organic shopper and become a much larger part of the conventional shoppers’ basket. Our growth roadmap requires us to deliver on four specific strategies. As I outlined to you June, we will seek to; firstly, focus resources on leading brands and products that represent 90% of our business, and which are outgrowing our entire business; secondly, to drive cost out of our business and streamline our product portfolio and supply chain to reduce complexity; thirdly, increase investment in our leading brands and consumer engagement with a focus on innovation where our cost savings will fuel our investment plans to create a virtual circle of growth; and fourthly, enhance our in-market retail activation within the store and online to improve sales execution with more effective trade investment. Our quarter-four momentum demonstrates with our plan is working and I look forward to providing you more detail on how we’re executing against these goals, going forward. In the fourth quarter, we generated net sales of $309 million, an increase of 1% from quarter four last year or 2% increase on a constant currency basis, accounting for Ella’s Kitchen brand in the UK, which is $3 million top line foreign exchange drag. In delivering this result, we continued on the path set to increase our focus on the top 500 SKUs, representing 94% of our MULO+C consumption as of 7/16/2017. Our SKU rationalization program, announced…

Thank you, Gary. Good morning. Project Terra is our $350 million cost savings program, which will provide us with the fuel we need to make strategic brand investments, like Gary was talking about, while also expanding our margins overtime. We believe Project Terra represents a tremendous opportunity for Hain Celestial to create value over the next three years. Part of our historical strategy was guided by the view that at that the time, we could create more value by taking advantage of opportunities to build our natural organic Better-for-You branded product portfolio and global footprint. This strategy has clearly paid-off as today we are a leading pure play organic, natural and Better-for-You company and we are well position to benefit from key industry growth tailwinds. However, this approach has also resulted in complexity and costs across the organization. We started Project Terra to help us identify and reduce these complexities in their attending costs. Today, I’m focusing on our cost savings opportunities. We’ve studied our global cost structure and identified savings opportunities across the P&L while at the same time, continuing to leverage our proven supply chain productivity function; but we’re attacking all cost opportunities, including both direct and indirect costs. And to reinforce the importance of Project Terra, we have business leader incentives in place to drive accountability. For FY18, we've identified $100 million in savings across our worldwide operations. We have detailed and prioritized these savings opportunities on a business-by-business and project-by-project basis based on what's the CapEx requirements and the return on the invested capital, as well as what are the non-CapEx cash spending requirements; and of course, what are the FY18 savings and the ongoing annual savings. Now, some of the exciting Terra projects we are executing against include, in the U.S.; where we have identified a significant savings opportunity related to optimizing warehouse handling and freight utilization; where at Hain Pure Protein, where we have indentified millions in cost savings through process improvements that drive increased yield, higher throughput and labor savings; and in the UK, as Irwin mentioned, we've identified millions of cost savings based on our planned exit of project Castel, the own-label chilled frozen desserts business; and globally, where we are looking to drive millions in annual savings by reducing indirect spending. With just those this shows four areas that I talked about alone will drive $25 million in annualized savings. So to summarize, Project Terra is our cost savings initiative to drive $350 million in savings over the next three years to provide us with the fuel we need to prudently invest behind our business, while expanding our margins overtime. We look forward to providing you with more updates on our progress in the future. Now, I’ll turn the call over to James Langrock. James?

Thank you, John, and good morning, everyone. We are extremely pleased with the momentum we achieved in the fourth quarter. Fiscal 2017 has been a transitional year at Hain, but our results continue to improve throughout the year. These improvements across our business, provides us with greater confidence in our fiscal 2018 guidance, which I will discuss in more detail after I review 2017 results. Please refer to our GAAP to non-GAAP reconciliation tables in the press release for additional information on our financial statements. First, I want to provide some color on the timing of our 10-K filing. As you are aware, we filed our 2016 Form 10-K and Form 10-Qs for the first three quarters of 2017 on June 22. 2017. This resulted in significant time and resources being diverted from the Company’s usual fiscal year-end audit process. Accordingly, we plan to file a Form 12-B 25 today and expect to file our audited financial statements within the additional 15 days afforded by the SEC to continue to be deemed a timely filer. With the filing of our 2017 Form 10-K, we expect to return to the normal quarterly financial reporting cycle. Now, on to our results. We gain strong momentum in our business during the fourth quarter, and we believe we are well-positioned to substantially increase profitability in fiscal 2018. Net sales for the fourth quarter performed to our expectations at $725 million, a decrease of $12 million or 2%, which includes $28 million of unfavorable foreign currency impact. Net sales increased by 2% on a constant currency basis. Importantly, the U.S. segment net sales returned to growth, increasing by 2% at constant rates. The acquisition of Yorkshire Provender, completed in the last week of April and the Better Bean acquisition which closed in the last week…

Thank you [Operator Instructions]. And our first question comes from Andrew Lazar from Barclays. Your line is open.

I guess, I wanted to start-off a little bit with looking at the momentum that you saw in your underlying business through the fourth quarter. And just trying to compare that, and see how it drives with maybe what we all see, just from the measured data more recently in the U.S. And I know that only picks-up obviously a percentage of your U.S. business. But perhaps you can just help us bridge a little bit, some of the recent trends we’ve seen in Scanner with your expectation for 4% to 6% sales growth as we move forward through fiscal '18. And then I've just got a follow-up.

Gary is going to answer that. But I think as we all look at IRR or Nielsen information, as you heard me say, it represents MULO, it doesn’t represent a lot of our other accounts out there. The other thing as we've been going through a SKU rationalization and that tail has been a drag by a couple of points. And what we're talking about is our top 500 SKUs that represent 94% of our sales. So let me get to Gary just to take you through the combination, like I said, of what natural Amazon club is, so Gary.

As Irwin pointed out, of course we and I mentioned on the call, we obviously have some SKU rationalization drag, which we anticipate will continue through just mid-2018. But outside of the measured channels that you see, as I again mentioned, we have seen broader consumption improvement across the number our unmeasured channels. And of course, the focus is on the top 500 SKUs in those channels as well. And if I look at the most recent reads across those channels, we’re seeing acceleration in many parts for the top 500 SKUs, very encouraging to see better results in the natural channel, which has been a drag for us. And also with some of our major customers, such as Whole Foods, where we’re definitely seeing much better trends with the focus on the top 500 SKUs, and we would anticipate that that will continue with the assistance of what is going on with Amazon as well. So all-in-all, it’s a change in the balance, if you like in the SKUs. And of course, what you’re seeing in the Scanner data is probably overemphasized because of just one or two decisions and one or two retailers affecting one category. And as you know, sensible portions is a big piece of our business, and it’s turned from growth driver to, at the moment, a drag largely because decisions in one customer. So that tends to color the numbers a little bit that you see in MULO as well.

And then just a quick follow-up. Gary, I think -- but I could be wrong. On the last call, you’d mentioned the same low to mid-single-digit sales growth expectation in Hain U.S. for ’18. And I think it was EBITDA growth of low-double-digit. I think that you might have mentioned EBITDA growth in line with the sales growth. So if I do have that right, I’m just curious what the change was. But it’s possible I have that wrong.

Yes. So first of all, low to mid-single-digit is our expectations of the top-line. And yes, just to confirm, our bottom-line expectations in EBITDA is to be more or less in line with our sales growth. That would be our expectation, recognizing that we, obviously, are making a fairly significant investment in the business to get this growth. And I think that’s a fairly reasonable balance.

Andrew, this is James. I just want to clarify. So, the growth is low mid-single-digits on sales. But the EBITDA would be low-double-digits growth on EBITDA, because just the way the math works.

So it’s consistent with what we had heard last quarter.

Yes, consistent with what we heard last call.

Thank you. Our next question comes from Akshay Jagdale with Jefferies. Your line is open.

Wanted to ask a follow-up on the U.S. Gary, can you -- and just going back to Andrew’s question. I just want to make sure there is no channel-fill related shipments in this quarter that may or may not reverse right, because, you’re doing a lot of, obviously, brand re-launches and you mentioned yogurt and obviously, MaraNatha, and I’m sure there is more coming. So can you give us some sense, if it is a call out, if there is any channel-fill related to your launches? And then I have a couple of follow-up.

Yes, I can absolutely confirm, this is consumption driven. What we’re seeing is consumption driven improvement. The launch, for example, for Greek Gods really has only taken effect now in August. So it really has no impact at all. And for the balance, it’s absolutely a shift in the model as we flag this whole intention of what we've done to 2017 to shift our inventory balance, is all around gearing for consumption driven growth. And that's exactly what we're seeing.

And then just to follow-up. Can you provide a little more color on what you’re seeing in from the Greek Gods launch? It seems like the timeline potentially little bit delayed in terms of the execution and store, but that from a, coming from a very small sample that we have surveyed. So you mentioned the things are going better than you thought or at least encouraging early on. So can you give us a little bit more color on Greek Gods? And then also MaraNatha, I think, the Nielsen data is still not capturing that. So maybe you can give us a better read from what you’re seeing there in the most recent periods. That would be great.

Greek Gods is basically running to our original planned time table; this unscheduled for launch predominantly; kicking-off in Walmart; performance is very strong; the most recent reads we’re seeing very encouraging; good early trial; very much on or ahead of our plan with them; we go to fairly substantial lift in TDPs as a result of the innovation coming in; and we've started the in-store activation program, as I mentioned; so that we get the opportunity for the consumer to try to product. And today, the reads we’re seeing are very encouraging. Of course, it will flow through in the MULO results in the coming reads. So you'll see more of that. In the case of MaraNatha, performance in the MULO read is strong. We've got strong unit growth, as I mentioned. And outside of that, we’re seeing in products of the natural channel, for example, double-digit growth, which we have not seen for some time, also very strong growth in whole foods. So this is broad based growth for MaraNatha across a range of channels, so very encouraging.

And just one last one for Irwin, on Hain Pure Protein, results came in below expectations even this quarter. Can you give us a little bit more color on why you feel confident that things have turned around? Because obviously, your guidance seem to imply that things are going to already turnaround a little bit more than they have this quarter. So anything you can share with us since the quarter close; as to how the results are doing; or that could give us a little bit more confidence that you are in fact going to beyond plan for the Hain Pure Protein business in '18, especially in light of everything going on in retail. So, I think Amazon one of the products they cut prices on, was organic protein. So, we would love to hear your thoughts there. Thanks.

Number one, what I said is; here in the quarter, we saw a 8% top line growth; we're seeing good growth and good profitability coming out of FreeBird; matter of fact, our chicken sales are, right now, we’re sold at on capacity; we're seeing good pricing, good consumption on wings, which prices have moved up dramatically; same with our Empire Kosher business; seeing good growth and good consumption there. Plainville basically as other companies have mentioned. The Turkey category and pricing has come down, not so much in the ABF and the organic, which we’re moving more and more to. We also have moved more and more into the whole daily and Better-For-You products there. So with that, we have a good plan in place. We took out a lot of costs. We’re seeing good momentum on our cost structure, which a big part of our profitability will come from. We have a plan for Thanksgiving, which started in July. So I feel good about the turnaround. It’s mostly Plainville. It was mostly turkey pricing. But it was not -- the first -- the fourth quarter, is not a big quarter for us. It really starts in the first and second quarter, Akshay; so FreeBird, Empire doing real well; Plainville, we’re working it and we’re coming into our big seasons now. And with rotisserie chicken at Whole Foods and prices coming down, it’s a big part of our business and we saw some major-major growth coming out of Whole Foods rotisserie chicken business.

Our next question comes from Scott Mushkin from Wolfe Research. Your line is open.

So I just wanted to get your view, Irwin, on the landscape. I know you talked a little bit about in your prepared remarks. But clearly, a lot of your traditional package food competitors are struggling in a major way, and retailers is somewhat in chaos, because of what’s going on with Amazon. So just wondering, as you look at your business and seeing clearly, the Better-for-You is going fast. But do you feel like you’ve made enough adjustments to the business to deal with what’s going on with the landscape? Is Hain big enough? And my third question along the same line of questions is, as Amazon Whole Foods becomes big, are you expecting for them to ask for concessions on price?

So number one Scott. We have made significant infrastructure changes under Jamie Fay; what we’ve done with our sales organization; what we’re doing in regards going direct versus broker the infrastructure that we’ve put in place; and the talent that we have hired at Hain, to represent us at our major retailers is a major, major upgrade. In regards to what Gary has talked about is investing in our consumers, connecting to our consumers, the acquisition costs to bring consumers to educate them about our brands. What we’ve done to upgrade our brands to overhaul packaging, whether on MaraNatha, Spectrum would come out very shortly and just our Arrowhead Mills, is just to name of few. So a lot has been done to improve products; a lot has been done the way we sell our products; a lot is being on Project Terra, as you heard John talked about; and Jay Erskine and his team in regards to service levels; improving our service levels by 2-3 points is worth $40 million, $50 million for us. So the infrastructure is built in probably the strongest that’s ever been. The team that’s running these entities today is probably the strongest. So with that, as you heard me say before, of natural foods, only 9% of natural foods is bought at brick-and-mortar, over 30% is bottom-line. And if you look and see who is buying our brands today, it’s millennials. And that is where the consumptions going to continuously move from. As I said, consumption is not going to grow out there. It's the whole category, whether its $700 billion or $800 billion in sales, it's going to move more and more over the natural organic foods. With that, yes, there will be more brands. There will be more private label get in there. And from a Hain standpoint; this is here we've been doing it for 24 years; we have supply; we have manufacturing; we have innovation. The biggest thing we have to do is connect with our consumers and make sure we connect with our customers. In regards to pricing, listen, I think one of the good things that we have is excellent partnerships and relationships with all our customers. We meet with, whether it's Amazon, Whole Foods, Walmart, Target, Sprouts on a regular basis, everyone wants to sell more everyone wants to cut prices. From a standpoint there, they’re asking us for better pricing. I think at the end of the day, everybody wants better pricing. But we have to enhance our margins. One of the reasons we’re taking a lot of costs out of our business that if there is better pricing available, we’ll pass it on. But the most important thing is what you heard me say today is Whole Foods’ comps with us are up 5%, Scott, where they are in negative territory for periods of times; so sale, sale, sales, drives a lot of margins at the bottom line.

Thank you. Our next question comes from Amit Sharma from BMO. Your line is open.

I just wanted to follow-up on that point about Amazon Whole Foods first. They've talked about that this is just beginning. So would you expand on who you see it as a positive if they’re bringing down prices on average 25% on something. And just bringing the 365 on to Amazon.com, what kind of pricing are you working to your model right now versus volume? Thanks.

So I'll jump in there. Listen, number one is, we are a manufacturer and marketer of organic and natural foods. We've got the infrastructure and supply in place that we've built over the last 24 years. So it's just, when you say you’re bringing this on, we're bringing on private label; supply, manufacturing, it's just not easy to push a button, go out there to get products, like a conventional product. Number two is, listen, our research shows where millennials connect to brands, and that’s why we’re spending the dollars we are to invest in our brands where our consumers will connect to our brands. And we think, whether it's MaraNatha, Spectrum, Arrowhead Mills, Earth’s Best, Terra Chips, they are strong brands, and millennials are buying those brands. So it's important we invest behind them. Listen in regards to pricing I think Amazon sees the opportunity of where Whole Foods prices were to bring them down. And ultimately, we got profit margins to make and we're going to hit those profit margins. And as you heard we say before, sales drives a lot of cost, and that's the most important thing how we drive consumption here. And that will be the way that we will be able to -- we need to pass other costs back down, that will be the way we’ll do it.

Thank you. Our next question comes from David Palmer from RBC. Your line is open.

Maybe you answered this before. But what U.S. division sales growth is baked into your 4% to 6% sales growth target for fiscal '18?

Low to mid to singles, David…

And when your total consumption that we see in measured channels, people have eluted to, it's down mid-single digit slightly. How much has that gap widened in recent quarters, and how it's versus total consumption? And in other words, where do you think total consumption is versus what we’re seeing in Nielsen? And how much has that widened in recent quarters?

I couldn’t be precise about the delta. But what I can say is that you have some very specific drags in the MULO numbers, which I referenced some of it before where sensible portions is going from being a growth driver to at least in the short-term a drag. We obviously also have some of the pullback on Ella’s, which we flagged the last earnings call coming out, which will eventually come out of the numbers. Greek Gods, of course has been in recent times, a drag as we pulled out some of the innovation from the last season and replaced it now with innovation that’s coming through in August. So you’ve got this temporary situation where we do see some of the drags coming through MULO+C. But most importantly, we’re totally focused on the top 500 SKUs and the amount of consumption growth we’re seeing across all channels. And that’s where we see encouraging signs and obviously quarter four numbers demonstrated, we’re seeing that come through in terms of top-line sales. So our expectations in terms of MULO+C, I think, we were asked this question before, when do we see this turning around, it’s probably in quarter three, our fiscal quarter three. But in the meantime, total consumption growth for us is our focus in all channels.

But I think, David, what we mentioned is, as you look at our growth in natural club, ecommerce and MULO, our consumption growth shows up 6% and that’s what we mentioned earlier on, top 500 SKUs.

Thank you. Our next question comes from Bill Chappell from SunTrust. Your line is open.

This is actually Stephanie on for Bill. I just have a quick question. I know you mentioned SKU rationalization was a couple of points of a headwind in the fourth quarter. Is that baked in for similar levels for ’18 as well? And I just have a modeling question follow-up.

So just reconfirming what we’d said to that quarter three call. We expected that we’d have the conclusion of that SKU rationalization flow through till the end of the second quarter of fiscal ’18 and to be between 100 to 150 basis points of drag, and that is baked into our numbers for our growth plan.

And then I just have a question about the Cultivate brand switch from the U.S. segment to the rest of world. Did you retroactively adjust that in the first three quarters of fiscal ’16?

Yes. So the filings, it’s all adjusted. So we went back and we retroactively adjusted, took it out of the U.S. and put it into rest of world. So it’s apples-to-apples is the comparison.

Thank you. And we do have time for two more questions. Our next question comes from Andrew Wolf from Loop Capital Markets. Your line is open.

This question is for Gary. Looks like the last two quarters in the U.S. are kind of carbon copies in terms of the sales dollars and the EBIT dollars and operating profit. And the margin you’ve rounded to 15%. So really the question is given all the net investments coming in that you’re going to reinvest. What’s your sense of when the business inflects? And off the base, of the $46 million and the 15% EBIT margin, not against the Q3 comparison.

I guess the point was made earlier in the call about the fact that obviously our first quarter is not our strongest quarter, which is normal cadence for Hain. And obviously, we’re also investing ahead of the growth, which is also a part of the plan. So, the cadence in terms of our performance, so I would expect to see continuous improvement throughout 2018 quarter-by-quarter or I would see it improving. We would expect that obviously quarter two will be a stronger quarter for us, because we’re investing now. But just away the seasonality of the different businesses work for us and our investment plan, it is going to be more back half weighted than front half weighted. And that's just a function of probably the seasonality when the hot tea season falls and when some of our investment kicks in for the different brands.

And I think you or Irwin made comments earlier that it's not just Whole Foods, but the entire natural channel. Could you speak how broad based that is? I guess, I'm trying to get the two things; how broad based is that the expansion, which is good for with you; but also trying to understand what's going on at Whole Foods for you, pre-Amazon. So just a sense that the channel is just recovering in and of itself or do you think Whole Foods was already operating sort of de facto as if it was under Amazon's control? I know they are promoting more just to get your sense of that.

No, I would say -- I’ll address your second question first. The work, the improvement we’re seeing in Whole Foods is very much just a result of the deliberate strategy we said we’re going to employ around focusing in our core range and our top 500 SKUs. And it really has been strong execution of work in close partnership with Whole Foods. Irrespective of Amazon being on the radar or not, it is really about the work that's being done by the teams and excellent work to improve our core category focus, improve our promotional programs, our placement on shelf, our range. It has been just the simple execution of work that we need to do every day, and we are demonstrating we’re doing a great job of just improving the performance in Whole Foods. So it really has nothing to do with Amazon. And in fact, that's why I think Irwin alluded to, we see upside because if you now layer in the work that's to come, we see more opportunity for growth there. And then in terms of your first of the questions, which is around the broad base. As I flagged, we’re seeing improved trends, particularly for the top 500 SKUs, across the natural channel. And I'm talking outside of Whole Foods. And obviously, more focused around those SKUs where we've already -- and those brand where we've started early work, such as MaraNatha, Imagine, these Rare the SKUs that obviously are already turning, because we’ve started some of the investment work and more to come obviously as we work our way throughout our plan.

Thank you. And our final question comes from Steven Strycula from UBS. Your line is open.

So quick question would be on project Terra savings, just wanted to get a sense what the $100 million is coming through this year. Is that net of COGS inflation and what is your COGS inflation for this year? And can you ballpark whether two-thirds of that cost savings comes through COGS and the remaining thirty comes through SG&A? Thanks.

That is not net of food inflation. And at this point, little more than 50% is coming through supply chain productivity with the balance coming through all other areas of the P&L. Steven, anything else?

Thank you. And that does conclude our question-and-answer session for today’s conference. I would now like to turn the conference back over to Irwin Simon for closing remarks.

Thank you. The Hain Celestial remains uniquely positioned in the growing organic natural and Better-for-You products industry. To support our future growth, we are fortunate to have a solid balance sheet that provides the foundation for our capital allocation priorities. It was great to be able to meet with so many of you over the last several weeks in our investor calls and our meetings. We’ll continue our ongoing dialogue with you about our Company, our priorities, our progress and the value we believe we can create. From my experience, I know that input and feedback from our key stakeholders, including our customers and the investment community, gives us a perspective that simply makes us a better company. So we look forward to those further discussions. In addition, consistent with our commitment to be best-in-class corporate governance, we’re regularly evaluating our Board of Directors to ensure we have the right mix of expertise and relevant experience. And we remain in active discussions with accomplished executives from various sectors to refresh our board. We’ll continue to evaluate all opportunities to build out our platform strength, eliminate complexity, and enhance margins, including accretive acquisitions and non-core divestitures. So in closing, we continued to make significant progress across key areas of our business and hit the ground running in our first quarter of fiscal 2018. And boy, I am glad 2017 is behind us. We remain confident that our leading natural and organic Better-for-You brands and strong team and strategic initiatives position us to well execute our mission to create and aspire a healthier way of life. The most important, I’d like to thank our team of over 7,800 employees and our Board of Directors for their contributions and support. Together, we will further capitalize on our core strength and resources to drive Hain Celestial’s next chapter of growth and success. I’d like to thank you for joining us today and enjoy your last week of summer, and buy all our Hain Celestial products. Have a great day.

Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for participating in today’s conference. This does conclude the program, and you may all disconnect. Everyone have a wonderful day.
