Nov 07, 2024

HanesBrands Inc. (NYSE: HBI), a global leader in iconic apparel brands, today announced results for the third-quarter 2024.

“We delivered another strong quarter with operating profit, earnings per share, and cash flow results that exceeded our expectations. In addition, we have further reduced our leverage, expect a return to revenue growth in the fourth quarter, and raised our full-year outlook for profit and cash flow,” said Steve Bratspies, CEO. “Our strategic actions to create a more focused, simplified business are working. We are driving a step-function change in our cost structure, increasing operational efficiencies, reducing inventory, and freeing up capital to invest in growth. We expect the benefits of these actions to ramp over the next several quarters, giving us visibility and confidence to deliver continued margin improvement, cash generation, and debt reduction through 2025.”

Third-Quarter 2024 Results

Net Sales from continuing operations were $937 million.

  • Net sales decreased 2.5% compared to the prior year, with approximately 180 basis points due to the divestiture in the prior year of the U.S. Sheer Hosiery business and approximately 75 basis points due to the unfavorable impact from foreign exchange rates.
  • On an organic constant currency basis, net sales were consistent with prior year (Table 2-B).

Gross Profit and Gross Margin increased year-over-year driven by lower input costs as the Company continues to anniversary the impact from peak inflation, the benefits from its cost savings initiatives, and the benefits from its assortment management initiative.

  • In the quarter, the Company continued its consolidation and other optimization actions in its supply chain to lower fixed cost, increase efficiencies, and further improve customer service and in-stocks with lower levels of inventory. The Company expects these actions to drive continued benefits in the fourth quarter 2024 and through 2025.
  • Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Profit were $390 million and $392 million, respectively, an increase over prior year of 12% and 11%, respectively.
  • Gross Margin and Adjusted Gross Margin increased approximately 530 and 525 basis points, respectively, to 41.7% and 41.8%, respectively.
  • Adjusted Gross Profit and Adjusted Gross Margin exclude certain costs related to restructuring and other action-related charges (Table 6-A).

Selling, General and Administrative (SG&A) Expenses, as a percentage of net sales, increased over prior year driven primarily by a 150 basis point increase in brand investments, which was partially offset by benefits from cost savings initiatives and disciplined expense management.

  • In the quarter, the Company accelerated strategic actions to improve its processes. These actions are driving a step-function change in the Company’s cost structure, including reducing corporate headcount and overhead, to lower fixed cost and fund growth-related investments in its brands. The Company expects the savings from these actions to continue to build over the next several quarters.
  • SG&A Expenses were $287 million, or 30.7% of net sales, which represents an increase over prior year of 7% and 270 basis points, respectively.
  • Adjusted SG&A Expenses were $269 million, or 28.7% of net sales, which represents an increase of nearly 1% and 90 basis points, respectively.
  • Adjusted SG&A Expenses exclude certain costs related to restructuring and other action-related charges (Table 6-A).

Operating Profit and Operating Margin increased over prior year driven by gross margin improvement, which supported a 150 basis point increase in brand investments.

  • Operating Profit increased 27% to $103 million and Operating Margin increased 255 basis points to 11.0% as compared to prior year.
  • Adjusted Operating Profit increased 46% to $122 million and Adjusted Operating Margin increased 435 basis points to 13.0% as compared to prior year.
  • Adjusted Operating Profit and Adjusted Operating Margin exclude certain costs related to restructuring and other action-related charges (Table 6-A).

Interest Expense and Other Expenses of $58 million decreased approximately $8 million as compared to prior year. The decrease was driven by lower interest expense as a result of lower debt balances.

Tax Expense was $13 million as compared to $21 million in the prior year period.

  • Effective Tax Rate was 27.9% as compared to 139.1% in third-quarter 2023.
  • Adjusted Tax Rate was 19.5% as compared to 141.8% last year.
  • The Company's effective tax rate for 2024 and 2023 is not reflective of the U.S. statutory rate due to valuation allowances against certain net deferred tax assets.

Income from continuing operations totaled $32 million, or $0.09 per diluted share in third-quarter 2024. This compares to a loss from continuing operations of $(6) million, or $(0.02) per diluted share, in third-quarter 2023. Adjusted Income from continuing operations totaled $52 million, or $0.15 per diluted share. This compares to an adjusted loss from continuing operations of $(8) million, or $(0.02) per diluted share, in third-quarter 2023.

See the Note on Adjusted Measures and Reconciliation to GAAP Measures later in this news release for additional discussion and details of actions, which include restructuring and other action-related charges.

Third-Quarter 2024 Business Segment Summary

  • U.S. net sales decreased 1% as compared to prior year. Despite the anticipated total market decline in the quarter, the Company’s strategy of consumer-centricity is working. The Company’s point-of-sale trends have outperformed the total market year-to-date as increased brand investments and product innovation in its Hanes, Maidenform and Bali brands are driving permanent retail space and market share gains, particularly with younger consumers.

    Operating margin of 22.1% increased approximately 665 basis points over prior year. The increase was driven by lower input costs, favorable product mix, and benefits from cost savings initiatives, which helped fund a 55% increase in brand investments to drive consumer demand behind new product innovation in both Men’s and Women’s.
  • International net sales increased 1% on a reported basis, which included a $7 million headwind from unfavorable foreign exchange rates. International sales increased 4% on a constant currency basis compared to prior year as sales grew in the Americas and Asia and were consistent with prior year in Australia as the Company begins to anniversary the worst of Australia’s macroeconomic-driven headwinds.

    Operating margin of 14.2% increased approximately 465 basis points compared to prior year driven primarily by lower input costs and benefits from cost savings initiatives.

Cash Flow, Balance Sheet and Liquidity

  • Total liquidity position at the end of third-quarter 2024 was more than $1.4 billion, consisting of $317 million of cash and equivalents and approximately $1.1 billion of available capacity under the Company’s credit facilities.
  • Based on the calculation as defined in the Company’s senior secured credit facility, the Leverage Ratio at the end of third-quarter 2024 was 4.3 times on a net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA basis, which was below its third-quarter 2024 covenant of 6.63 times and below prior year’s 5.5 times (See Table 6-B). Subsequent to the end of third-quarter 2024, the Company paid down an additional approximately $870 million of debt in October 2024.
  • Inventory at the end of third-quarter 2024 of $928 million decreased 13%, or $138 million, year-over-year. The year-over-year decrease was driven predominantly by the benefits of its inventory management capabilities, including SKU discipline and lifecycle management, lower input costs as the Company continued to anniversary the impact from peak inflation, and improving sales trends.
  • Cash Flow from Operations was $197 million year-to-date at the end of the third-quarter 2024 as compared to $287 million last year. Free Cash Flow year-to-date was $165 million at the end of the third-quarter 2024 as compared to $252 million last year.

Closes Sale of Global Champion Business

Subsequent to the end of the third-quarter 2024 and as previously announced on September 30, 2024, the Company completed the sale of the intellectual property and certain operating assets of the global Champion business to Authentic Brands Group.

Fourth-Quarter and Full-Year 2024 Financial Outlook

Guidance metrics are based on continuing operations.

The Company is providing guidance on tax expense due to the expected fluctuation of its quarterly tax rate, stemming from the deferred tax reserve matter previously disclosed in fourth-quarter 2022. Importantly, the reserve does not impact cash taxes. Some portion of the reserve may reverse in future periods.

The Company closed the sale of its U.S. Sheer Hosiery business on September 29, 2023. For the full year 2023, its U.S. Sheer Hosiery business generated $50 million of net sales and an operating loss of $(2) million.

For fiscal year 2024, which ends on December 28, 2024, the Company currently expects:

  • Net sales from continuing operations of approximately $3.61 billion, which includes projected headwinds of approximately $50 million from last year’s U.S. Sheer Hosiery divestiture and approximately $42 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. This represents an approximate 4% decrease as compared to prior year on a reported basis and an approximate 2% decrease on an organic constant currency basis.
  • GAAP operating profit from continuing operations of approximately $174 million.
  • Adjusted operating profit from continuing operations of approximately $417 million, which includes a projected headwind of approximately $8 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
  • Pretax charges for restructuring and other action-related charges of approximately $243 million.
  • GAAP and Adjusted Interest expense of approximately $195 million, which reflects the pay down of debt from the use of net proceeds from the Champion sale and internal cash generation.
  • GAAP Other expenses of approximately $53 million, which includes approximately $10 million of accelerated amortization of debt issuance costs. Adjusted Other expenses of approximately $43 million.
  • GAAP and Adjusted Tax expense of approximately $40 million, which includes a net tax benefit primarily related to a release of certain tax reserves.
  • GAAP loss per share from continuing operations of approximately $(0.32).
  • Adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations of approximately $0.39.
  • Cash flow from operations of approximately $250 million.
  • Capital investments of approximately $50 million, consisting of approximately $40 million of capital expenditures and approximately $10 million of cloud computing arrangements. Per GAAP, capital expenditures are reflected in cash from investing activities and certain cloud computing arrangements are reflected in Other Assets within cash flow from operating activities. The approximate $10 million of cloud computing arrangements is factored into the full year cash flow from operations guidance of approximately $250 million.
  • Free cash flow of approximately $210 million.
  • Fully diluted shares outstanding of approximately 355 million.

For fourth-quarter 2024, which ends on December 28, 2024, the Company currently expects:

  • Net sales from continuing operations of approximately $900 million, which includes projected headwind of approximately $4 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. This represents an approximate 2% increase as compared to prior year on a reported basis and an approximate 3% increase on an organic constant currency basis.
  • GAAP operating profit from continuing operations of approximately $95 million.
  • Adjusted operating profit from continuing operations of approximately $115 million, which includes a projected headwind of approximately $1 million from changes in foreign currency exchange rates.
  • Pretax charges for restructuring and other action-related charges of approximately $20 million.
  • GAAP and Adjusted Interest expense of approximately $45 million, which reflects the pay down of debt from the use of net proceeds from the Champion sale and internal cash generation.
  • GAAP Other expenses of approximately $24 million, which includes approximately $10 million of accelerated amortization of debt issuance costs. Adjusted Other expenses of approximately $14 million.
  • GAAP and Adjusted Tax expense of approximately $5 million, which includes a net tax benefit primarily related to a release of certain tax reserves.
  • GAAP earnings per share from continuing operations of approximately $0.06.
  • Adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations of approximately $0.14.
  • Fully diluted shares outstanding of approximately 357 million.

HanesBrands has updated its quarterly frequently-asked-questions document, which is available at www.Hanes.com/FAQ.

Note on Adjusted Measures and Reconciliation to GAAP Measures

To supplement financial results prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, the Company provides quarterly and full-year results concerning certain non‐GAAP financial measures, including adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations, adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations, adjusted income tax expense, adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes, adjusted operating profit (and margin), adjusted SG&A, adjusted gross profit (and margin), EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted effective tax rate, adjusted interest expense and adjusted other expenses, net debt, leverage ratio and free cash flow.

Adjusted EPS is defined as diluted earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations excluding actions and the tax effect on actions. Adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations is defined as income (loss) from continuing operations excluding actions and the tax effect on actions. Adjusted tax expense is defined as income tax expense excluding actions. Adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations before income taxes is defined as income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax excluding actions. Adjusted operating profit is defined as operating profit excluding actions. Adjusted SG&A is defined as selling, general and administrative expenses excluding actions. Adjusted gross profit is defined as gross profit excluding actions. Adjusted interest expense is defined as interest expense excluding actions. Adjusted other expenses is defined as other expenses excluding actions and adjusted tax rate is defined as adjusted tax expense divided by adjusted income (loss) from continuing operations before income tax.

Charges for actions taken in 2024 and 2023, as applicable, include the supply chain restructuring and consolidation, corporate asset impairment, headcount actions and related severance charges, professional services, technology charges, gain/loss on sale of business and classification of assets held for sale, loss on extinguishment of debt, gain on final settlement of cross currency swap contracts and the tax effects thereof.

While these costs are not expected to continue for any singular transaction on an ongoing basis, similar types of costs, expenses and charges have occurred in prior periods and may recur in future periods depending upon future business plans and circumstances.

HanesBrands has chosen to present these non‐GAAP measures to investors to enable additional analyses of past, present and future operating performance and as a supplemental means of evaluating operations absent the effect of our supply chain restructuring and consolidation and other actions that are deemed to be material stand-alone initiatives apart from the Company’s core operations. HanesBrands believes these non-GAAP measures provide management and investors with valuable supplemental information for analyzing the operating performance of the Company’s ongoing business during each period presented without giving effect to costs associated with the execution of any of the aforementioned actions taken.

The Company has also chosen to present EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to investors because it considers these measures to be an important supplemental means of evaluating operating performance. EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before the impacts of discontinued operations, interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA excluding (x) restructuring charges related to our supply chain restructuring and consolidation, and other action-related charges described in more detail in Table 6-A and (y) certain other losses, charges and expenses as defined in the Consolidated Net Total Leverage Ratio under its Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated November 19, 2021, as amended (the “Credit Agreement”) described in more detail in Table 6-B. HanesBrands believes that EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in the industry, and management uses EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA for planning purposes in connection with setting its capital allocation strategy. EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA should not, however, be considered as measures of discretionary cash available to invest in the growth of the business.

Net debt is defined as the total of current debt, long-term debt, and borrowings under the accounts receivable securitization facility (excluding long-term debt issuance costs and debt discount and borrowings of unrestricted subsidiaries under the accounts receivable securitization facility) less (x) other debt and cash adjustments and (y) cash and cash equivalents. Leverage ratio is the ratio of net debt to adjusted EBITDA as it is defined in our Credit Agreement.

The Company defines free cash flow as net cash from operating activities less capital expenditures. Management believes that free cash flow, which measures our ability to generate additional cash from our business operations, is an important financial measure for use in evaluating the Company's financial performance. The Company defines organic net sales as net sales excluding those derived from businesses acquired or divested within the previous 12 months of the reporting date.

HanesBrands is a global company that reports financial information in U.S. dollars in accordance with GAAP. As a supplement to the Company’s reported operating results, HanesBrands also presents constant-currency financial information, which is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact of translating foreign currencies into U.S. dollars. The Company uses constant currency information to provide a framework to assess how the business performed excluding the effects of changes in the rates used to calculate foreign currency translation.

To calculate foreign currency translation on a constant currency basis, operating results for the current-year period for entities reporting in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates in effect during the comparable period of the prior year (rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the current year period).

HanesBrands believes constant currency information is useful to management and investors to facilitate comparison of operating results and better identify trends in the Company’s businesses. The Company defines organic constant currency sales as net sales excluding those derived from businesses acquired or divested within the previous 12 months of the reporting date and also excluding the impact of translating foreign currencies into U.S. dollars as discussed above.

Non‐GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to, or substitute for, financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Further, the non-GAAP measures presented may be different from non-GAAP measures with similar or identical names presented by other companies.

Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are presented in the supplemental financial information included with this news release.

Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and HanesBrands undertakes no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, other than as required by law.

TABLE 6-A

HANESBRANDS INC.

Supplemental Financial Information

Reconciliation of Select GAAP Measures to Non-GAAP Measures

(in thousands, except per share data)

(Unaudited)

The following tables present a reconciliation of results from continuing operations as reported under GAAP to the results from continuing operations as adjusted for the quarter and nine months ended September 28, 2024 and a comparison to prior year. The Company has chosen to present the following non-GAAP measures to investors to enable additional analyses of past, present and future operating performance and as a supplemental means of evaluating continuing operations absent the effect of restructuring and other actions that are deemed to be material stand-alone initiatives apart from the Company’s core operations. While these costs are not expected to continue for any individual transaction on an ongoing basis, similar types of costs, expenses and charges have occurred in prior periods and may recur in future periods depending upon future business plans and circumstances.

Restructuring and other action-related charges in 2024 and 2023 include the following:

Supply chain restructuring and consolidation

In 2024, represents charges as a result of the sale of the global Champion business, which was completed subsequent to the Company’s third quarter on September 30, 2024, and the completed exit of the U.S.-based outlet store business in July 2024 related to significant restructuring and consolidation efforts within the Company’s supply chain network, both manufacturing and distribution, to align the Company’s network to its continuing operations to drive stronger operating performance and margin expansion. In 2023, represents charges related to supply chain segmentation to restructure and position the Company’s distribution and manufacturing network to align with its demand trends, simplify operations and improve efficiencies.

Corporate asset impairment charges

Primarily represents charges related to a contract terminated in the second quarter of 2024 and impairment of the Company’s headquarters location that was classified as held for sale in the second quarter of 2024.

Headcount actions and related severance

Represents charges related to operating model initiatives primarily headcount actions and related severance charges and adjustments related to restructuring activities.

Professional services

Represents professional fees, primarily including consulting and advisory services, related to restructuring activities.

Technology

Represents technology charges related to the implementation of the Company’s technology modernization initiative which includes a global enterprise resource planning platform.

Gain/loss on sale of business and classification of assets held for sale

Represents the gain/loss associated with the sale of the Company’s U.S. Sheer Hosiery business and adjustments to the related valuation allowance prior to the sale on September 29, 2023, primarily from the changes in carrying value due to changes in working capital.

Loss on extinguishment of debt

Represents charges related to the redemption of the Company’s 4.625% Senior Notes and 3.5% Senior Notes in the first quarter of 2023.

Gain on final settlement of cross currency swap contracts

Primarily represents the remaining gain related to cross-currency swap contracts previously designated as cash flow hedges in accumulated other comprehensive loss which was released into earnings as the Company unwound the cross-currency swap contracts in connection with the redemption of the 3.5% Senior Notes at the time of settlement in the first quarter of 2023.

Discrete tax benefit

Represents an adjustment to non-cash reserves established at December 31, 2022 related to deferred taxes established for Swiss statutory impairments, which are not indicative of the Company’s core business operations.

Tax effect on actions

Represents the applicable effective tax rate on the restructuring and other action-related charges based on the jurisdiction of where the charges were incurred.

The Company expects approximately 357 million diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the quarter ended December 28, 2024 and approximately 355 million diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the year ended December 28, 2024.

The Company is unable to reconcile projections of financial performance beyond 2024 without unreasonable efforts, because the Company cannot predict, with a reasonable degree of certainty, the type and extent of certain items that would be expected to impact these figures in 2024 and beyond, such as net sales, operating profit, tax rates and action related charges.
