FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements include all statements that do not relate solely to historical or current facts, and can generally be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “believe,” “will,” “expect,” “project,” “estimate,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “continue” or similar expressions. In particular, statements under the heading “Outlook” and other information appearing under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” include forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements inherently involve many risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in these statements.

Where, in any forward-looking statement, we express an expectation or belief as to future results or events, such expectation or belief is based on the current plans and expectations of our management, expressed in good faith and believed to have a reasonable basis. However, there can be no assurance that the expectation or belief will result or will be achieved or accomplished. More information on factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated is included from time to time in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, under the caption “Risk Factors,” and available on the “Investors” section of our corporate website, www.Hanes.com/investors.

All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, particularly under the caption “Risk Factors.” We undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, other than as required by law.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(dollars and shares in thousands, except per share data)

(unaudited)

(1)	Basis of Presentation

These statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and, in accordance with those rules and regulations, do not include all information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Management believes that the disclosures made are adequate for a fair statement of the results of operations, financial condition and cash flows of Hanesbrands Inc., a Maryland corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company” or “Hanesbrands”). In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments, which consist only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to state fairly the results of operations, financial condition and cash flows for the interim periods presented herein. The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Actual results may vary from these estimates. Three subsidiaries of the Company close on the calendar month-end, which is less than a week earlier than the Company’s consolidated quarter end. The difference in reporting of financial information for these subsidiaries did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

As a result of further policy harmonization related to acquired businesses, certain prior year amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements, none of which are material, have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. The reclassification is between the “Trade accounts receivable, net” line and the “Accrued liabilities” line of $22,746 as of December 31, 2016. This reclassification had no impact on the Company’s results of operations.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. The year end condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year.

(2)	Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Inventory

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, “Inventory: Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory”, which requires inventory to be recorded at the lower of cost or net realizable value. The new standard was effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2017. The adoption of the new accounting rules did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Hedge Accounting

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-05, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Effect of Derivative Contract Novations on Existing Hedge Accounting Relationships”, which clarifies that a change in the counterparty to a derivative contract, in and of itself, does not require the dedesignation of a hedging relationship. The new standard, which can be adopted prospectively or on a modified retrospective basis, is effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2017. Also in March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-06, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Contingent Put and Call Options in Debt Instruments”, which clarify the requirements for assessing whether contingent call (put) options that can accelerate the payment of principal on debt instruments are clearly and closely related to their debt hosts. An entity performing the assessment under the amendments in this Update is required to assess the embedded call (put) options solely in accordance with the four-step decision sequence. The new standard was effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2017. The adoption of the new accounting rules did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

In July 2015, the FASB announced a delay of effective dates for the new accounting rules related to revenue recognition for contracts with customers by one year. In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-08, “Revenue from Contracts with

(dollars and shares in thousands, except per share data)

(unaudited)

Customers (Principal versus Agent Considerations)”, which clarifies revenue recognition when an agent, along with the entity, is involved in providing a good or service to a customer. In April 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-10, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Identifying Performance Obligations and Licensing)”, which clarifies the principle for determining whether a good or service is “separately identifiable” and, therefore, should be accounted for separately. In May 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-12, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Narrow-Scope Improvements and Practical Expedients)”, which clarifies the objective of the collectability criterion. A separate update issued in May 2016 clarifies the accounting for shipping and handling fees and costs as well as accounting for consideration given by a vendor to a customer. The new standard will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2018 with retrospective application required. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of the new rules on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Statement of Cash Flows

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments”. Issues addressed in the new guidance that are relevant to the Company include debt prepayment and extinguishment costs, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination and beneficial interests in securitization transactions. The new rules will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2018. The Company does not expect the adoption of the new accounting rules to have a material impact on the Company’s cash flows.

Income Taxes

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory”. The update eliminates the exception for an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory, which aligns the recognition of income tax consequences for such transfers. The update requires the recognition of current and deferred income taxes resulting from these transfers when the transfer occurs rather than when it is sold to an external party. The new rules will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2018. The Company does not expect the adoption of the new accounting rules to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Definition of a Business

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business”. The update provides for the application of a screen test to consider whether substantially all the fair value of the assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets. If the screen test determines this to be true, the set is not a business. The new rules will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2018. The Company does not expect the adoption of the new accounting rules to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Compensation Retirement Benefits

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, “Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the presentation of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost. The update requires that an employer report the service cost component in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by pertinent employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations. The new rules will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The Company does not expect the adoption of the new accounting rules to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Lease Accounting

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases”, which will require lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases that are not short-term in nature. The new rules will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2019. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of the new rules on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Goodwill Impairment

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment”. The update simplifies how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount. The new rules will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2020. The Company does not expect the adoption of the new accounting rules to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

(3)	Acquisitions

Hanes Australasia

On July 14, 2016, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Pacific Brands Limited (“Hanes Australasia”) for a total purchase price of AUD$1,049,360 ($800,871). US dollar equivalents are based on acquisition date exchange rates. The Company funded the acquisition through a combination of cash on hand, a portion of the net proceeds from the 3.5% Senior Notes issued in June 2016 and borrowings under the Australian Term A-1 Loan Facility and the Australian Term A-2 Loan Facility.

The allocation of the purchase price is preliminary and subject to change. The primary areas of the purchase price that are not yet finalized are related to certain income taxes and residual goodwill. Accordingly, adjustments may be made to the values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as additional information is obtained about the facts and circumstances, which existed at the valuation date.

The acquired assets and assumed liabilities at the date of acquisition (July 14, 2016) include the following:

Cash and cash equivalents	$	54,294
Accounts receivable, net	36,019
Inventories	104,806
Other current assets	16,588
Current assets of discontinued operations	50,839
Property, net	34,835
Trademarks and other identifiable intangibles	506,170
Deferred tax assets and other noncurrent assets	18,320
Total assets acquired	821,871
Accounts payable	89,309
Accrued liabilities and other	22,838
Current liabilities of discontinued operations	14,564
Long-term debt	41,976
Deferred tax liabilities and other noncurrent liabilities	15,817
Total liabilities assumed	184,504
Net assets acquired	637,367
Goodwill	163,504
Purchase price	$	800,871

Since July 14, 2016, goodwill decreased by $22,644 as a result of measurement period adjustments, primarily related to the valuation adjustments for the Dunlop Flooring and Tontine Pillow businesses.

Champion Europe

On June 30, 2016, the Company acquired 100% of Champion Europe S.p.A. (“Champion Europe”), which owns the trademark for the Champion brand in Europe, the Middle East and Africa, from certain individual shareholders in an all-cash transaction valued at €220,751 ($245,554) on an enterprise value basis, less working capital adjustments as defined in the purchase agreement, which includes €40,700 ($45,277) in estimated contingent consideration. US dollar equivalents are based on acquisition date exchange rates. The Company funded the acquisition through a combination of cash on hand and a portion of the net proceeds from the 3.5% Senior Notes issued in June 2016.

The estimated contingent consideration is included in the “Accrued liabilities” line in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet and is based on 10 times Champion Europe’s earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) in excess of €18,600, calculated as defined by the purchase agreement, for the calendar year 2016 and is payable in 2017. The contingent consideration is required to be revalued each reporting period until paid. At April 1, 2017, the contingent consideration payment was pending finalization of Champion Europe’s calendar year 2016 EBITDA calculation, in accordance with the purchase agreement. The settlement payment is estimated to be between €37,800 and €83,600. Management continues to evaluate the proposed adjustments to the EBITDA calculation, and as such has maintained the accrual for the contingent consideration at €40,700 which is consistent with management’s expectations for the final settlement.

The allocation of purchase price is preliminary and subject to change. The primary areas of the purchase price allocation that are not yet finalized are related to certain income taxes and residual goodwill. Accordingly, adjustments may be made to the values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as additional information is obtained about the facts and circumstances that existed at the acquisition date. The acquired assets, contingent consideration and assumed liabilities at the date of acquisition (June 30, 2016) include the following:

Cash and cash equivalents	$	14,581
Trade accounts receivable, net	27,926
Inventories	53,816
Other current assets	5,976
Property, net	24,605
Trademarks and other identifiable intangibles	135,277
Deferred tax assets and other noncurrent assets	3,777
Total assets acquired	265,958
Accounts payable	66,594
Accrued liabilities and other (including contingent consideration)	60,887
Notes payable	27,748
Deferred tax liabilities and other noncurrent liabilities	20,282
Total liabilities assumed and contingent consideration	175,511
Net assets acquired	90,447
Goodwill	109,830
Initial consideration paid	200,277
Estimated contingent consideration	45,277
Total purchase price	$	245,554

Since June 30, 2016, goodwill increased by $1,665 as a result of measurement period adjustments primarily to working capital.

(4)	Discontinued Operations

As part of the Company’s acquisition of Hanes Australasia, the Company acquired Hanes Australasia’s legacy Dunlop Flooring and Tontine Pillow businesses. The Company concluded that these businesses were not a strategic fit; therefore, the decision was made to divest of the businesses.

In February 2017, the Company sold its Dunlop Flooring business for AUD$34,564 ($26,219) in net cash proceeds at the time of sale, with an additional AUD$1,010 ($766) of proceeds received in April 2017 related to a working capital adjustment, resulting in a pre-tax loss of AUD$3,039 ($2,331). US dollar equivalents are based on exchange rates on the date of the sale transaction. The Dunlop Flooring business was reported as part of discontinued operations since the date of acquisition.

In March 2017, the Company sold its Tontine Pillow business for AUD$13,500 ($10,363) in net cash proceeds at the time of sale. A working capital adjustment payment of AUD$1,348 ($1,035) was accrued as of the quarter ended April 1, 2017 and paid to the buyer in April 2017, resulting in a net pre-tax gain of AUD$2,033 ($1,565). US dollar equivalents are based on exchange rates on the date of the sale transaction. The Tontine Pillow business was reported as part of discontinued operations since the date of acquisition.

The operating results of these discontinued operations only reflect revenues and expenses that are directly attributable to these businesses that were eliminated from ongoing operations. The key components from discontinued operations related to the Dunlop Flooring and Tontine Pillow businesses were as follows:

	Quarter Ended
	April 1, 2017
Net sales	$	6,865
Cost of sales	4,507
Gross profit	2,358
Selling, general and administrative expenses	3,731
Operating loss	(1,373		)
Other expenses	303
Net loss on disposal of businesses	766
Loss from discontinued operations before income tax expense	(2,442		)
Income tax expense	23
Net loss from discontinued operations, net of tax	$	(2,465	)

(5)	Stockholders’ Equity

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) was computed by dividing net income by the number of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted EPS was calculated to give effect to all potentially dilutive shares of common stock using the treasury stock method.

The reconciliation of basic to diluted weighted average shares outstanding is as follows:

	Quarter Ended
	April 1, 2017			April 2, 2016
Basic weighted average shares outstanding	373,218			386,598
Effect of potentially dilutive securities:
Stock options	1,640			1,400
Restricted stock units	385			1,040
Employee stock purchase plan and other	8			5
Diluted weighted average shares outstanding	375,251			389,043

For the quarters ended April 1, 2017 and April 2, 2016, no options were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation because their effect would be anti-dilutive. For the quarter ended April 1, 2017, 42 restricted stock units were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation, and for the quarter ended April 2, 2016, no restricted stock units were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation because their effect would be anti-dilutive.

For the quarters ended April 1, 2017 and April 2, 2016, the Company declared cash dividends of $0.15 and $0.11 per share, respectively.

Fair Values of Derivative Instruments

The fair values of derivative financial instruments recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets of the Company were as follows:

	Balance Sheet Location		Fair Value
			April 1, 2017				December 31, 2016
Hedges	Other current assets		$	3,828			$	16,729

Total derivative liabilities			(7,144		)		(379		)
Net derivative (liability) asset			$	(841	)		$	20,713

Cash Flow Hedges

The Company uses forward foreign exchange contracts to reduce the effect of fluctuating foreign currencies on short-term foreign currency-denominated transactions, foreign currency-denominated investments and other known foreign currency exposures. Gains and losses on these contracts are intended to offset losses and gains on the hedged transaction in an effort to reduce the earnings volatility resulting from fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates.

The Company expects to reclassify into earnings during the next 12 months a net gain from AOCI of approximately $2,279.

The changes in fair value of derivatives excluded from the Company’s effectiveness assessments and the ineffective portion of the changes in the fair value of derivatives used as cash flow hedges are reported in the “Selling, general and administrative expenses” line in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

The effect of cash flow hedge derivative instruments on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and AOCI is as follows:

	Amount of Loss Recognized in AOCI (Effective Portion)
	Quarter Ended
	April 1, 2017				April 2, 2016
Foreign exchange contracts	$	(18,114	)		$	(5,578	)

 

	Location of Gain Reclassified from AOCI into Income (Effective Portion)		Amount of Gain Reclassified from AOCI into Income (Effective Portion)
			Quarter Ended
			April 1, 2017				April 2, 2016
Foreign exchange contracts	Cost of sales		$	298			$	2,324

Derivative Contracts Not Designated As Hedges

The Company uses foreign exchange derivative contracts as economic hedges against the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations on existing accounts receivable and payable balances and intercompany lending transactions denominated in foreign currencies. These contracts are not designated as hedges under the accounting standards and are recorded at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Any gains or losses resulting from changes in fair value are recognized directly

into earnings. Gains or losses on these contracts largely offset the net remeasurement gains or losses on the related assets and liabilities.

The effect of derivative contracts not designated as hedges on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income is as follows:

	Location of Loss Recognized in Income on Derivative		Amount of Loss Recognized in Income
			Quarter Ended
			April 1, 2017				April 2, 2016
Foreign exchange contracts	Selling, general and administrative expenses		$	(4,264	)		$	(2,408	)

(10)	Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

As of April 1, 2017, the Company held certain financial assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These consisted of the Company’s derivative instruments related to foreign exchange rates, deferred compensation plan liabilities and contingent consideration resulting from the Champion Europe acquisition. The fair values of foreign currency derivatives are determined using the cash flows of the foreign exchange contract, discount rates to account for the passage of time and current foreign exchange market data and are categorized as Level 2. The fair value of deferred compensation plans is based on readily available current market data and is categorized as Level 2. The fair value of the contingent consideration obligation is determined by applying a multiple of 10 times Champion Europe’s EBITDA for calendar year 2016 in excess of €18,600, as defined per the purchase agreement, as further described in Note 3 to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements, and is categorized as Level 3. The contingent consideration obligation will be revalued each reporting period until the related contingencies are resolved, with any adjustments to the fair value recognized in earnings. The Company’s defined benefit pension plan investments are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

There were no changes during the quarter ended April 1, 2017 to the Company’s valuation techniques used to measure asset and liability fair values on a recurring basis. There were no transfers into or out of Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 during the quarter ended April 1, 2017. As of and during the quarter ended April 1, 2017, the Company did not have any non-financial assets or liabilities that were required to be measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis.

The following tables set forth, by level within the fair value hierarchy, the Company’s financial assets and liabilities accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis.

	Assets (Liabilities) at Fair Value as of April 1, 2017
	Total				Quoted Prices In Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)				Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)				Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, notes receivable and accounts payable approximated fair value as of April 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016. The carrying amount of trade accounts receivable included allowance for doubtful accounts, chargebacks and other deductions of $20,320 and $18,726 as of April 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The fair value of debt, which is classified as a Level 2 liability, was $4,095,861 and $3,729,270 as of April 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. Debt had a carrying value of $4,141,620 and $3,732,583 as of April 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016, respectively. The fair values were estimated using quoted market prices as provided in secondary markets, which consider the Company’s credit risk and market related conditions. The carrying amounts of the Company’s notes payable, which is classified as a Level 2 liability, approximated fair value as of April 1, 2017 and December 31, 2016, primarily due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

(11)	Income Taxes

The Company’s effective income tax rate for continuing operations was 6% and 11% for the quarters ended April 1, 2017 and April 2, 2016, respectively. The lower effective income tax rate for the quarter ended April 1, 2017 compared to the quarter ended April 2, 2016 was primarily due to a lower proportion of earnings attributed to domestic subsidiaries, which are taxed at rates higher than foreign subsidiaries, as well as an income tax benefit recognized in the first quarter of 2017 related to the realization of an unrecognized tax benefit resulting from the effective settlement of positions in foreign jurisdictions.

(12)	Business Segment Information

In the first quarter of 2017, the Company realigned its reporting segments to reflect the new model under which the business will be managed and results will be reviewed by the chief executive officer, who is the Company’s chief operating decision maker. The former Direct to Consumer segment, which consisted of the Company’s U.S. value-based (“outlet”) stores, legacy catalog business and U.S. retail Internet operations, was eliminated. The Company’s U.S. retail Internet operations, which sells products directly to consumers, is now reported in the respective Innerwear and Activewear segments. Other consists of the Company’s U.S. value-based (“outlet”) stores, U.S. hosiery business (previously reported in the Innerwear segment) and legacy catalog operations. Prior year segment sales and operating profit results have been revised to conform to the current year presentation.

The Company’s operations are managed and reported in three operating segments, each of which is a reportable segment for financial reporting purposes: Innerwear, Activewear and International. These segments are organized principally by product category and geographic location. Each segment has its own management that is responsible for the operations of the segment’s businesses, but the segments share a common supply chain and media and marketing platforms.

The types of products and services from which each reportable segment derives its revenues are as follows:

•	Innerwear sells basic branded products that are replenishment in nature under the product categories of men’s underwear, panties, children’s underwear, socks and intimate apparel, which includes bras and shapewear.

•	Activewear sells basic branded products that are primarily seasonal in nature under the product categories of branded printwear and retail activewear, as well as licensed logo apparel in collegiate bookstores, mass retail and other channels.

•	International primarily relates to the Europe, Australia, Asia, Latin America and Canada geographic locations that sell products that primarily span across the Innerwear and Activewear product categories.

The Company evaluates the operating performance of its segments based upon segment operating profit, which is defined as operating profit before general corporate expenses, acquisition-related and integration charges and amortization of intangibles. The accounting policies of the segments are consistent with those described in Note 2 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

This management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, or MD&A, contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Please see “Forward-Looking Statements” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated with these statements. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our historical financial statements and related notes thereto and the other disclosures contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes included herein should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2016, which were included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. The results of operations for the periods reflected herein are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for future periods, and our actual results may differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including but not limited to those included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and those included in the “Risk Factors” section and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Overview

We are a consumer goods company with a portfolio of leading apparel brands, including Hanes, Champion, DIM, Maidenform, Playtex, Bonds, Bali, JMS/Just My Size, Nur Die/Nur Der, L’eggs, Lovable, Wonderbra, Flexees, Berlei, Lilyette and Gear for Sports. We design, manufacture, source and sell a broad range of basic apparel such as T-shirts, bras, panties, men’s underwear, children’s underwear, activewear, socks and hosiery.

Our operations are managed and reported in three operating segments, each of which is a reportable segment for financial reporting purposes: Innerwear, Activewear and International. These segments are organized principally by product category, geographic location and distribution channel. Each segment has its own management that is responsible for the operations of the segment’s businesses, but the segments share a common supply chain and media and marketing platforms. In the first quarter of 2017, we realigned our reporting segments to reflect the new model under which the business will be managed and results will be reviewed by the chief executive officer, who is our chief operating decision maker. The former Direct to Consumer segment, which consisted of our U.S. value-based (“outlet”) stores, legacy catalog business and U.S. retail Internet operations, was eliminated. Our U.S. retail Internet operations, which sells products directly to consumers, is now reported in the respective Innerwear and Activewear segments. Other consists of our U.S. value-based (“outlet”) stores, U.S. hosiery business (previously reported in the Innerwear segment) and legacy catalog operations. Prior year segment sales and operating profit results have been revised to conform to the current year presentation.

Highlights from the Quarter Ended April 1, 2017

Key financial highlights are as follows:

•	Total net sales in the first quarter of 2017 were $1.4 billion, compared with $1.2 billion in the same period of 2016, representing a 13% increase.

•

Operating profit decreased 1% to $121 million in the first quarter of 2017, compared with $122 million in the same period of 2016. As a percentage of sales, operating profit was 8.8% in the first quarter of 2017 compared to 10.0% in the same period of 2016. Included within operating profit for both the first quarter of 2017 and 2016 were acquisition-related and integration charges of $38 million and $25 million, respectively.

•	Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations decreased 10% to $0.19 in the first quarter of 2017, compared with $0.21 in the same period of 2016.

•	We repurchased approximately 14.7 million shares of our common stock for approximately $300 million at a weighted average cost per share of $20.39.

•

As part of our acquisition of Pacific Brands (“Hanes Australasia”) in July 2016, we acquired the Dunlop Flooring and the Tontine Pillow businesses. These businesses were not a strategic fit and, therefore, the decision was made to divest of the aforementioned businesses. Both sale transactions were completed during the quarter, resulting in a combined pre-tax loss of $1 million, which was reported as part of discontinued operations.

Outlook

We expect our 2017 full year net sales to be approximately $6.45 billion to $6.55 billion.

Interest and other expenses are expected to be approximately $175 million, combined.

We estimate our full year effective income tax rate to be comparable with prior year, assuming no changes to U.S. tax law and policy.

We expect cash flow from operations to be in the range of $625 million to $725 million. We expect capital expenditures of approximately $90 million to $100 million.

Seasonality and Other Factors

Our operating results are subject to some variability due to seasonality and other factors. Generally, our diverse range of product offerings helps mitigate the impact of seasonal changes in demand for certain items. We generally have higher sales during the back-to-school and holiday shopping seasons and during periods of cooler weather, which benefits certain product categories such as fleece. Sales levels in any period are also impacted by customers’ decisions to increase or decrease their inventory levels in response to anticipated consumer demand. Our customers may cancel or change delivery schedules, manage on-hand inventory levels, or change the mix of products ordered with minimal notice to us. Media, advertising and promotion expenses may vary from period to period during a fiscal year depending on the timing of our advertising campaigns for retail selling seasons and product introductions.

Although the majority of our products are replenishment in nature and tend to be purchased by consumers on a planned, rather than on an impulse basis, our sales are impacted by discretionary spending by consumers. Discretionary spending is affected by many factors, including, among others, general business conditions, interest rates, inflation, consumer debt levels, the availability of consumer credit, taxation, gasoline prices, weather, unemployment trends and other matters that influence consumer confidence and spending. Many of these factors are outside of our control. Consumers’ purchases of discretionary items, including our products, could decline during periods when disposable income is lower, when prices increase in response to rising costs, or in periods of actual or perceived unfavorable economic conditions. These consumers may choose to purchase fewer of our products or to purchase lower-priced products of our competitors in response to higher prices for our products, or may choose not to purchase our products at prices that reflect our price increases that become effective from time to time.

Changes in product sales mix can impact our gross profit as the percentage of our sales attributable to higher margin products, such as intimate apparel and men’s underwear, and lower margin products, such as activewear, fluctuate from time to time. In addition, sales attributable to higher and lower margin products within the same product category fluctuate from time to time. Our customers may change the mix of products ordered with minimal notice to us, which makes trends in product sales mix difficult to predict. However, certain changes in product sales mix are seasonal in nature, as sales of socks, hosiery and fleece products generally have higher sales during the last two quarters (July to December) of each fiscal year as a result of cooler weather, back-to-school shopping and holidays, while other changes in product mix may be attributable to customers’ preferences and discretionary spending.

Net Sales

Net sales increased 13% during the first quarter of 2017 primarily due to the following:

•	Acquisitions of Hanes Australasia, Champion Europe and GTM in 2016, which added incremental net sales of approximately $213 million in 2017;

19

---

Table of Contents

•	Higher net sales in our Activewear segment primarily driven by Champion sales within the mass merchant channel;

•	Growth in our men’s underwear business; and

•	Continued growth in Asia within our Activewear product category.

Partially offset by:

•	Lower net sales in our remaining Innerwear product categories as a result of challenging consumer traffic at retail, cautious inventory management by retailers and store closures within the mid-tier and department store channel; and

•	Lower net sales in Other driven by continued declines in Hosiery, slower traffic at our outlet stores and the planned exit from our legacy catalog business in the third quarter of 2016.

Gross Profit

The increase in gross profit was attributable to higher sales volume primarily from acquisitions, supply chain efficiencies and synergies recognized from the integration of our acquisitions, offset slightly by higher acquisition-related and integration charges. Included in gross profit in the first quarter of 2017 and 2016 are charges of approximately $15 million and $5 million, respectively, related to acquisition-related and integration costs. The higher acquisition-related and integration charges in the first quarter of 2017 is partially attributed to the Nanjing, China textile facility closure.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

As a percentage of net sales, our selling, general and administrative expenses were 30.3% for the first quarter of 2017 compared to 27.5% in the same period of 2016. Included in selling, general and administrative expenses were charges of $23 million and $20 million of acquisition-related and integration costs for the first quarter of 2017 and 2016, respectively. Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of net sales, increased due to the higher proportion of selling, general and administrative expenses for the recently acquired entities, primarily Hanes Australasia and Champion Europe and expenses related to our U.S. corporate office voluntary severance program, offset by synergy benefits from the integration of prior acquisitions and continued cost control.

Other Highlights

Interest Expense – higher by $11 million in the first quarter of 2017 compared to the first quarter of 2016 primarily due to higher debt balances from prior year acquisitions and share repurchases in 2017. Our weighted average interest rate on our outstanding debt was 3.74% during the first quarter of 2017, compared to 3.59% in first quarter of 2016.

Income Tax Expense – our effective income tax rate was 6% and 11% for the first quarter of 2017 and 2016, respectively.  The lower tax rate in 2017 compared to the same period in 2016 is primarily due to a lower proportion of earnings attributed to domestic subsidiaries, which are taxed at rates higher than foreign subsidiaries, as well as an income tax benefit recognized in the first quarter of 2017 related to the realization of an unrecognized tax benefit resulting from the effective settlement of positions in foreign jurisdictions.

Discontinued Operations – the results of our discontinued operations include the operations of two businesses, Dunlop Flooring and Tontine Pillow, which were purchased in the Hanes Australasia acquisition in 2016 and sold during the first quarter of 2017.

Innerwear 

	Quarter Ended
	April 1, 2017				April 2, 2016				Higher (Lower)				Percent Change
	(dollars in thousands)
Net sales	$	505,190			$	537,021			$	(31,831	)		(5.9	)%
Segment operating profit	102,701				109,735				(7,034		)		(6.4	)

Innerwear net sales decreased in both our basics and intimates apparel businesses. Strength in men’s underwear, partially driven by FreshIQ, was more than offset by declines in other product categories due to challenging consumer traffic at retail and cautious inventory management by retailers. Our intimate apparel business experienced sales declines driven by a single retailer’s planned store closures, partially offset by strong performance from our new Maidenform sport and millennial product offerings.

Decreased operating profit was driven largely by lower sales volume and charges related to the voluntary separation program in the first quarter, offset partially by continued cost control.

Activewear 

	Quarter Ended
	April 1, 2017				April 2, 2016				Higher (Lower)				Percent Change

Net sales	$	327,343			$	316,543			$	10,800			3.4	%
Segment operating profit	33,408				32,105				1,303				4.1

Activewear net sales increased due to Champion sales growth within the mass merchant channel and our expansion into the teamwear and fanware space with the acquisition of GTM in 2016, offset partially by sales declines in Hanes activewear within the mass merchant channel.

Operating profit increased as a result of higher sales volume and a shift to more profitable product sales mix in the quarter, offset partially by charges related to the voluntary separation program.

International

	Quarter Ended
	April 1, 2017				April 2, 2016				Higher (Lower)				Percent Change

Net sales	$	477,398			$	279,087			$	198,311			71.1	%
Segment operating profit	50,495				24,719				25,776				104.3

Net sales in the International segment were higher as a result of the following:

•	Incremental net sales from the acquisitions of Hanes Australasia and Champion Europe in 2016; and

•	Continued growth in Asia within our Activewear product category.

Partially offset by:

•	Lower net sales in Hanes Europe Innerwear, due to the slowing of certain European economies and the unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange rates.

Operating profit increased primarily due to higher sales volume, coupled with cost synergies realized in our Hanes Europe Innerwear business.

Other net sales were lower as a result of continued declines in hosiery, slower traffic at our outlet stores and the planned exit from our legacy catalog business in 2016. Operating profit decreased as a result of lower sales volume, offset, in part, by continued cost control.

Corporate

Corporate expenses included certain administrative costs and acquisition-related and integration charges totaling $38 million in the first quarter of 2017 as compared to $25 million in the first quarter ended 2016. Acquisition-related and integration costs are expenses related directly to an acquisition and its integration into the organization. These costs include legal fees, consulting fees, bank fees, severance costs, certain purchase accounting items, facility closures, inventory write-offs, information technology costs and similar charges.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Trends and Uncertainties Affecting Liquidity

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash generated by operations and availability under our $1.0 billion revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Loan Facility”), our senior secured credit facility (the “Senior Secured Credit Facility”), our accounts receivable securitization facility (the “Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility”) and our international loan facilities.

At April 1, 2017, we had $740 million of borrowing availability under our Revolving Loan Facility (after taking into account outstanding letters of credit), $7 million borrowing availability under our Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility, $167 million of borrowing availability under our international loan facilities, which includes our European Revolving Loan Facility, our Australian Revolving Loan Facility and other international notes payable and debt facilities, and $464 million in cash and cash equivalents. We currently believe that our existing cash balances and cash generated by operations, typically in the second half of the year, together with our available credit capacity, will enable us to comply with the terms of our indebtedness and meet foreseeable liquidity requirements.

The following have impacted or are expected to impact our liquidity:

•	we have principal and interest obligations under our debt;

•	we acquired Champion Europe in June 2016 and Hanes Australasia in July 2016 and we may pursue additional strategic business acquisitions in the future;

•	we expect to continue to invest in efforts to improve operating efficiencies and lower costs;

•	contributions to our pension plans;

•	we may increase or decrease the portion of the current-year income of our foreign subsidiaries that we remit to the United States, which could significantly impact our effective income tax rate;

•	our Board of Directors has authorized a regular quarterly dividend; and

•	our Board of Directors has authorized share repurchases.

Dividends

In January 2017, our Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.15 per share, which was paid in March 2017.

Share Repurchase Program

In April 2016, our Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program for up to 40 million shares to be repurchased in open market transactions, subject to market conditions, legal requirements and other factors. For the quarter ended April 1, 2017, we entered into transactions to repurchase approximately 15 million shares at a weighted average repurchase price of $20.39 per share. The shares were repurchased at a total cost of $300 million. For the quarter ended April 2, 2016 we repurchased approximately 14 million shares under the previous share repurchase program at a weighted average purchase price of $26.65. The shares were repurchased at a total cost of $380 million. At April 1, 2017, the remaining repurchase authorization under the current share repurchase program totaled approximately 25 million shares. The program does not obligate us to acquire any particular amount of common stock and may be suspended or discontinued at any time at our discretion.

Cash Requirements for Our Business

We rely on our cash flows generated from operations and the borrowing capacity under our credit facilities to meet the cash requirements of our business. The primary cash requirements of our business are payments to vendors in the normal course of business, capital expenditures, maturities of debt and related interest payments, business acquisitions, contributions to our pension plans, repurchases of our stock and regular quarterly dividend payments. We believe we have sufficient cash and available borrowings for our foreseeable liquidity needs.

There have been no significant changes in the cash requirements for our business from those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Sources and Uses of Our Cash

The information presented below regarding the sources and uses of our cash flows for the three months ended April 1, 2017 and April 2, 2016 was derived from our condensed consolidated financial statements.

	Three Months Ended
	April 1, 2017				April 2, 2016
	(dollars in thousands)
Operating activities	$	(22,798	)		$	(284,806	)
Investing activities	25,464				(19,635		)
Financing activities	4,511				314,684
Effect of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on cash	(3,799		)		3,010

Cash and cash equivalents at beginning of year	460,245				319,169
Cash and cash equivalents at end of period	$	463,623			$	332,422

Operating Activities

Our overall liquidity is primarily driven by our cash flow from operations, which is dependent on net income, as well as changes in our working capital. We typically use cash during the first half of the year and generate most of our cash flow in the second half of the year. As compared to prior year, the lower net cash used in operating activities is due to strong working capital management, specifically related to increased accounts receivable collections in the quarter, accounts payable and no voluntary pension contribution in the first quarter of 2017 compared to $40 million in the same period of 2016.

Investing Activities

The higher net cash provided by investing activities is primarily the result of cash received from our dispositions of the Dunlop Flooring and Tontine Pillow businesses.

Financing Activities

The lower net cash from financing activities was primarily the result of lower borrowings on our loan facilities in the first quarter of 2017.

Table of Contents

Financing Arrangements

In March 2017, we amended the Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility. This amendment primarily extended the termination date to March 2018.

As of April 1, 2017, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under our credit facilities. We expect to maintain compliance with these covenants for the foreseeable future, however economic conditions or the occurrence of events discussed under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016 or other SEC filings could cause noncompliance.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements within the meaning of Item 303(a)(4) of SEC Regulation S-K.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

We have chosen accounting policies that we believe are appropriate to accurately and fairly report our operating results and financial condition in conformity with U.S. GAAP. We apply these accounting policies in a consistent manner. Our significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” to our financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

The application of critical accounting policies requires that we make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and related disclosures. These estimates and assumptions are based on historical and other factors believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. We evaluate these estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis and may retain outside consultants to assist in our evaluation. If actual results ultimately differ from previous estimates, the revisions are included in results of operations in the period in which the actual amounts become known. The critical accounting policies that involve the most significant management judgments and estimates used in preparation of our financial statements, or are the most sensitive to change from outside factors, are discussed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016. There have been no material changes in these policies from those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements

For a summary of recently issued accounting pronouncements, see Note, “Recent Accounting Pronouncements” to our financial statements.

Item 3.	Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

There have been no significant changes in our market risk exposures from those described in Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016.

Item 4.	Controls and Procedures

As required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b), our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

In connection with the evaluation required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(d), our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that no changes in our internal control over financial reporting occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1A.	Risk Factors

The risk factors that affect our business and financial results are discussed in Part I, Item 1A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.
