History
The H. J. Heinz Company acquired 19.5% of the company in 1999, but subsequently divested itself of all holdings in 2005. On May 7, 2002, the company prior year periods had been restated by reclassifying promotional allowances and other sales incentives of $16.8 million in the third quarter of 2001. On January 13, 2014, the company acquired the rice company Tilda for $357 Million.

Controversies
In 2013, Hain Celestial became one of 25 companies targeted in an ongoing class action lawsuit regarding allegations of falsely labeling their personal care products (including Celestial Seasonings) as 'organic' under California law (California Products Act of 2003) to mislead consumers into purchasing them. According to Glaucas Research Group and Eurofins, many of these products, including beverages, are filled with high levels of pesticide, far above federal limits of the United States.
In September 2015, Hain Celestial Group reached a settlement and agreed to pay consumers a $7.5 million dollar compensation for mislabeling their products with an additional 2.4 million worth of coupons.
