HANESBRANDS INC. REPORTS SECOND-QUARTER 2010 RESULTS
Second-Quarter Net Sales Increased by 9.1% and Earnings Per Share More Than Doubled
Company Raises 2010 Net Sales and EPS Guidance
WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (July 21, 2010) — Hanesbrands Inc. (NYSE: HBI) today raised its 2010 sales and earnings guidance after reporting that second-quarter 2010 net sales increased 9.1 percent and diluted earnings per share increased by $0.55 to $0.87, up from $0.32 a year ago.
An income tax rate adjustment in the quarter increased EPS by $0.20 compared with last year’s quarter. Excluding the tax rate adjustment, EPS of $0.67 in the quarter increased by $0.35, driven by higher sales, improved operating profit margin, and year-ago restructuring, which added $0.32 combined.
Net sales increased by $90 million to $1.08 billion with double-digit increases for the company’s three largest business segments — Innerwear, Outerwear and International.
Based on performance in the first two quarters, Hanesbrands is raising its 2010 guidance. Full-year net sales growth is expected to be 8 percent to 10 percent, up from the previous guidance of 6 percent to 8 percent issued after first-quarter results. EPS is expected to be in the range of $2.25 to $2.35, up from previous guidance of $2.15 to $2.27.
“We continued our strong start in 2010,” Hanesbrands Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Richard A. Noll said. “Our brands are performing well with consumers, helping drive share gains in core categories and delivering strong productivity for the new sales programs we secured for this year.”
Business Segment Summary and Highlights
The company secured numerous new sales programs that resulted in significant shelf-space gains for 2010. These programs contributed approximately 6 percentage points of the quarter’s 9.1 percent sales growth. Increased retail sell through, retailer inventory restocking, and foreign currency exchange rates drove approximately 3 percentage points of growth.

Double-digit sales increases in the Innerwear, Outerwear and International segments combined for $103 million in sales growth, partially offset by a combined $14 million decrease in the Hosiery and Other segments. Direct to Consumer sales were up slightly.
The company’s operating profit margin improved to 11.4 percent of sales in the quarter, up from 8.5 percent a year ago. The Innerwear, Outerwear and International segments generated $21 million of increased operating profit in the quarter, partially offset by lower operating profit in the Hosiery and Direct to Consumer segments. Restructuring and related actions reduced operating profit in last year’s quarter by $13 million.
Key business segment highlights include:
• | The 10 percent increase in Innerwear sales was driven by increases in all product categories except women’s panties. Men’s underwear recorded its second consecutive quarter of double-digit sales growth with strong share gains, while socks delivered mid-single-digit growth. The segment had operating profit growth even with increased investment in media and marketing in the quarter. | |
During the quarter, theHanesbrand launched television advertising featuring Michael Jordan for new men’s underwear products, and Playtex began airing a new television ad for 18 Hour bras. Additionally, theBarely ThereandHanesbrands launched new Smart Size bras featuring proprietary shape-to-fit technology in mass merchants and department stores. | ||
• | Across-the-board growth in the Outerwear segment, led by theJust My Size,ChampionandHanesbrands, resulted in a 16 percent sales increase for the quarter and a doubling of operating profit over weak levels last year. Retail casualwear sales more than doubled, fueled by growth of the company’sJust My Sizebrand of plus-size apparel, while retail activewear and wholesale casualwear had mid-single-digit sales gains. | |
• | International segment sales increased by 14 percent, with double-digit gains in all countries, except low single-digit growth in Mexico and a decline in Japan. Segment operating profit increased by nearly 50 percent. |
Guidance
Hanesbrands has raised its 2010 net sales guidance to 8 percent to 10 percent growth, up from 6 percent to 8 percent. The company raised guidance as a result of additional new sales programs for the second half of the year, higher than expected productivity of new programs from previously announced shelf-space gains, and expectations of a continued overall increase in consumer spending and retailer inventory restocking.
Based on expected sales growth and operating margin expansion, Hanesbrands has raised its 2010 EPS guidance to $2.25 to $2.35, up from the previous guidance of $2.15 to $2.27.

Operating margin improvement for the year is expected to be at the high end of the company’s previously stated goal of 50 to 100 basis points. This improvement includes the negative impact of an approximate $25 million to $30 million in expected incremental short-term costs to secure product, service customers and maximize potential sales growth in 2010. Interest expense for the year is expected to be approximately $150 million to $153 million, and the full-year tax rate, including the second-quarter adjustment, is expected to be approximately 14 percent to 15 percent, up from the 2009 rate of 12 percent.
Inventories at the end of the quarter were $1.3 billion, up $61 million, or 5 percent, from the end of last year’s second quarter. Year-end inventories are expected to increase by up to $100 million over last year, an increase of approximately 9 to 10 percent, which is in line with expected 2010 sales growth. Strong profit growth partially offset by working capital investment is expected to yield free cash flow of $200 million to $250 million in 2010. Based on the 2010 performance guidance, the company’s debt-to-EBITDA leverage ratio could fall to less than 3.5 times assuming free cash flow were used entirely to pay down debt to the $1.65 billion to $1.7 billion level. Hanesbrands’ EBITDA leverage ratio was 4.6 times at the end of 2009.
Because of systemic cost inflation, particularly for cotton, energy and labor, Hanesbrands is working with its customers to offset 2011 cost increases through joint efficiency initiatives as well as price increases. The timing and size of price increases will vary by product category. While some price increases will take effect in the third and fourth quarters of 2010, the majority of the pricing impact will begin in 2011.
Certain Financial Measures
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization is a non-GAAP financial measure. The debt-to-EBITDA leverage ratio is calculated by dividing total debt by EBITDA. Hanesbrands has chosen to provide the EBITDA measure to investors to enable additional analyses of past, present and future operating performance and as a supplemental means of evaluating Hanesbrands’ operations. This non-GAAP information should not be considered a substitute for financial information presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and may be different from non-GAAP or other pro forma measures used by other companies. See Table 2 for reconciliation.
