(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 position 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 financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the results of operations, financial position 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.
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 onForm 10-K. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year.
Certain prior year amounts in the condensed consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation. These reclassifications, which relate to changes in the classification of inventory, segment assets, segment depreciation and amortization expense, segment additions to long-lived assets and consolidating financial information, had no impact on the Company’s results of operations.

(2) | Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements |
Fair Value Measurements
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 was effective for the Company’s financial assets and liabilities on December 30, 2007. The FASB approved a one-year deferral of the adoption of SFAS 157 as it relates to non-financial assets and liabilities with the issuance in February 2008 of FASB Staff PositionFAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157, as a result of which implementation by the Company is now required on January 4, 2009. The partial adoption of SFAS 157 in the first quarter ended March 29, 2008 had no material impact on the financial condition, results of operations or cash flows of the Company, but resulted in certain additional disclosures reflected in Note 8.
Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 permits companies to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value under generally accepted accounting principles and establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. The provisions of SFAS 159 became effective for the Company on December 30, 2007. As permitted by SFAS 159, the Company elected not to adopt the fair value option.

Business Combinations
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141R”). The objective of SFAS 141R is to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a company provides in its financial reports about a business combination and its effects. Under SFAS 141R, a company would be required to recognize the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, contractual contingencies and contingent consideration measured at their fair value at the acquisition date. It further requires that research and development assets acquired in a business combination that have no alternative future use be measured at their acquisition-date fair value and then immediately charged to expense, and that acquisition-related costs are to be recognized separately from the acquisition and expensed as incurred. Among other changes, this statement would also require that “negative goodwill” be recognized in earnings as a gain attributable to the acquisition, and any deferred tax benefits resulting from a business combination be recognized in income from continuing operations in the period of the combination. The Company is in the process of analyzing the impact of SFAS 141R, which is effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008.
Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS 160”). The objective of this Statement is to improve the relevance, comparability, and transparency of the financial information that a company provides in its consolidated financial statements. SFAS 160 requires a company to clearly identify and present ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the company in the consolidated financial statements within the equity section but separate from the company’s equity. It also requires the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statement of income; that changes in ownership interest be accounted for similarly, as equity transactions; and when a subsidiary is deconsolidated, that any retained noncontrolling equity investment in the former subsidiary and the gain or loss on the deconsolidation of the subsidiary be measured at fair value. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company does not believe that the adoption of SFAS 160 will have a material impact on its results of operations or financial position.
Disclosures About Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures About Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities — an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 (“SFAS 161”). SFAS 161 expands the disclosure requirements of FASB Statement No. 133 about an entity’s derivative instruments and hedging activities to include more detailed qualitative disclosures and expanded quantitative disclosures. The provisions of SFAS 161 are effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that SFAS 161 will have on its results of operations and financial position.
Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) was computed by dividing net income by the number of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding at March 29, 2008 and March 31, 2007. Diluted EPS was

calculated to give effect to all potentially dilutive shares of common stock. The reconciliation of basic to diluted weighted average shares for the quarters ended March 29, 2008 and March 31, 2007 is as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Quarter Ended | |
| | March 29,

| | | | | | | | |
Diluted weighted average shares | | | 95,610 | | | | 97,105 | |
| | | | | | | | |
Options to purchase 2,478 and 2,554 shares of common stock were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation because their effect would be anti-dilutive for the quarters ended March 29, 2008 and March 31, 2007, respectively.
| |
(4) | Stock-Based Compensation |
During the first quarter ended March 29, 2008, the Company granted options to purchase 1,340 shares of common stock pursuant to the Hanesbrands Inc. Omnibus Incentive Plan of 2006 (the “Omnibus Plan”) at an exercise price of $25.10 per share, which was the closing price of Hanesbrands’ stock on the date of grant. These options can be exercised over a term of seven years and vest ratably over one to three years. The fair value of each option granted during the first quarter ended March 29, 2008 was estimated as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model using the following assumptions: volatility of 28%; expected terms of 3.8 — 4.5 years; dividend yield of 0%; and risk-free interest rates ranging from 2.45% to 2.64%. The Company uses the volatility of peer companies for a period of time that is comparable to the expected life of the option to determine volatility assumptions due to the limited trading history of the Company’s common stock since the Company’s spin off from Sara Lee Corporation (“Sara Lee”) on September 5, 2006. The Company utilized the simplified method outlined in SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 to estimate expected lives for options granted during the first quarter ended March 29, 2008. SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 110, which was issued in December 2007, amends SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 and gives a limited extension on using the simplified method for valuing stock option grants to eligible public companies that do not have sufficient historical exercise patterns on options granted to employees. The weighted average fair value of individual options granted during the first quarter ended March 29, 2008 was $7.04.
During the first quarter ended March 29, 2008, the Company granted 540 restricted stock units (RSUs) pursuant to the Omnibus Plan. Upon the achievement of defined service conditions, the RSUs are converted into shares of the Company’s common stock on a one-for-one basis and issued to the grantees. All RSUs vest solely upon continued future service to the Company. The cost of these awards is determined using the fair value of the shares on the date of grant, and compensation expense is recognized over the period during which the grantees provide the requisite service to the Company. The grant date fair value of the RSUs was $25.10.
During the first quarter ended March 29, 2008 and March 31, 2007, 34 and 0 shares, respectively, were purchased under the Hanesbrands Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan of 2006 (the “ESPP”) by eligible employees. The Company had 2,330 shares of common stock available for issuance under the ESPP as of March 29, 2008.

Over the past several years, the Company has undertaken a variety of restructuring efforts in connection with its consolidation and globalization strategy designed to improve operating efficiencies and lower costs. As a result of these efforts, the Company expects to incur approximately $250,000 in restructuring and related charges over the three year period following the spin off from Sara Lee on September 5, 2006, of which approximately half is expected to be noncash. As of March 29, 2008, the Company has recognized approximately $122,000 in restructuring and related charges related to these efforts since September 5, 2006. Of these charges, approximately $46,000 relates to employee termination and other benefits, approximately $64,000 relates to accelerated depreciation of buildings and equipment for facilities that have been or will be closed, and approximately $12,000 relates to lease termination and other costs. Accelerated depreciation related to the Company’s manufacturing facilities and distribution centers that have been or will be closed is reflected in the “Cost of sales” and “Selling, general and administrative expenses” lines of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

Year Ended January 3, 2009 Actions
During the first quarter of 2008, the Company approved actions to close two manufacturing facilities and eliminate approximately 1,100 employees in Heredia, Costa Rica and Aguascalientes, Mexico during the next twelve months. This production capacity will be relocated to lower cost locations in Asia and Central America. The Company recorded a charge of $2,942 primarily attributable to employee termination and other benefits recognized in accordance with benefit plans previously communicated to the affected employee group. This charge is reflected in the “Restructuring” line of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income. All actions are expected to be completed within a12-month period.

(8) | Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities |
The Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS 157 as of December 30, 2007 for its financial assets and liabilities. Although this partial adoption of SFAS 157 had no material impact its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows, the Company is now required to provide additional disclosures as part of its financial statements. SFAS 157 clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. SFAS 157 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs about which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are based on one or more of three valuation techniques noted in SFAS 157. The three valuation techniques are as follows:
| | |
| • | Market approach — prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. |
|
| • | Cost approach — amount that would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost. |

(dollars and shares in thousands, except per share data)
(unaudited)
| | |
| • | Income approach — techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount based on market expectations, including present value techniques, option-pricing and other models. |
The Company primarily applies the market approach for commodity derivatives and the income approach for interest rate and foreign currency derivatives for recurring fair value measurements and attempts to utilize valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
As of March 29, 2008, 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 interest rates, foreign exchange rates and cotton. The fair values of cotton derivatives are determined based on quoted prices in public markets and are categorized as Level 1. The fair values of interest rate and foreign exchange rate derivatives are determined based on inputs that are readily available in public markets or can be derived from information available in publicly quoted markets and are categorized as Level 2. The Company does not have any financial assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis categorized as Level 3, and there were no transfers in or out of Level 3 during the quarter ended March 29, 2008. There were no changes to the Company’s valuation techniques used to measure asset and liability fair values on a recurring basis.
The following table sets forth by level within SFAS 157’s fair value hierarchy of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis at March 29, 2008. As required by SFAS 157, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels.

The determination of fair values above incorporates various factors required under SFAS 157. These factors include not only the credit standing of the counterparties involved and the impact of credit enhancements, but also the impact of the Company’s nonperformance risk on its liabilities.
SFAS No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, requires that all components of comprehensive income, including net income, be reported in the financial statements in the period in which they are recognized. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. Net income and other comprehensive income, including foreign currency translation adjustments, amounts amortized into net periodic benefit cost as required by SFAS No. 158, Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, and unrealized gains and

losses on qualifying cash flow hedges, are combined, net of their related tax effect, to arrive at comprehensive income. The Company’s comprehensive income is as follows:

| | 2008 | | | 2007 | |

Net unrealized loss on qualifying cash flow hedges, net of tax of $6,307 and $1,484, respectively | | | (9,906 | ) | | | (2,331 | ) |
Amounts amortized into net periodic income: | | | | | | | | |
Prior service cost (benefit), net of tax of $4 and $779, respectively | | | 6 | | | | (1,224 | ) |

Comprehensive income | | $ | 24,618 | | | $ | 9,491 | |
| | | | | | | | |
For the quarters ended March 29, 2008 and March 31, 2007, income taxes have been computed consistent with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 28, “Interim Financial Reporting” and FASB Interpretation No. 18, “Accounting for Income Taxes in Interim Periods.”
The difference in the estimated annual effective income tax rates of 24% and 30% for the quarters ended March 29, 2008 and March 31, 2007, respectively, and the U.S. statutory rate of 35.0% is primarily attributable to unremitted earnings of foreign subsidiaries taxed at rates less than the U.S. statutory rate. The Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate is reflective of its strategic initiative to make substantial capital investments outside the United States in its global supply chain in 2008.
Within 180 days after Sara Lee files its final consolidated tax return for the period that includes September 5, 2006, which is expected to occur by September 2008, Sara Lee is required to deliver to the Company a computation of the amount of deferred taxes attributable to the Company’s United States and Canadian operations that would be included on the Company’s balance sheet as of September 6, 2006. If substituting the amount of deferred taxes as finally determined for the amount of estimated deferred taxes that were included on that balance sheet at the time of the spin off causes a decrease in the net book value reflected on that balance sheet, then Sara Lee will be required to pay the Company the amount of such decrease. If such substitution causes an increase in the net book value reflected on that balance sheet, then the Company will be required to pay Sara Lee the amount of such increase.

(12) | Consolidating Financial Information |
In accordance with the indenture governing the Company’s $500,000 Floating Rate Senior Notes issued on December 14, 2006, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries have guaranteed the Company’s obligations under the Floating Rate Senior Notes. The following presents the condensed consolidating financial information separately for:
(i) Parent Company, the issuer of the guaranteed obligations. Parent Company includes Hanesbrands Inc. and its 100% owned operating divisions which are not legal entities, and excludes its subsidiaries which are legal entities;
(ii) Guarantor subsidiaries, on a combined basis, as specified in the indenture governing the Floating Rate Senior Notes;
(iii) Non-guarantor subsidiaries, on a combined basis;
(iv) Consolidating entries and eliminations representing adjustments to (a) eliminate intercompany transactions between or among Parent Company, the guarantor subsidiaries and the non-guarantor subsidiaries, (b) eliminate intercompany profit in inventory, (c) eliminate the investments in our subsidiaries and (d) record consolidating entries; and
(v) Parent Company, on a consolidated basis.
The Floating Rate Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by each guarantor subsidiary, each of which is wholly owned, directly or indirectly, by Hanesbrands Inc. Each entity in the consolidating financial information follows the same accounting policies as described in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements included in its Annual Report onForm 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2007, except for the use by the Parent Company and guarantor subsidiaries of the equity method of accounting to reflect ownership interests in subsidiaries which are eliminated upon consolidation.
Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation and legal entity structure relating to the classification of the investment in subsidiary balances and related equity in earnings of subsidiaries.

Item 2. | Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
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” 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 onForm 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 29, 2007, which were included in our Annual Report onForm 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. 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 onForm 10-Q and those included in our Annual Report onForm 10-K.
Overview
We are a consumer goods company with a portfolio of leading apparel brands, includingHanes,Champion,Playtex,Bali,Just My Size,barely there andWonderbra.We design, manufacture, source and sell a broad range of apparel essentials such as t-shirts, bras, panties, men’s underwear, kids’ underwear, socks, hosiery, casualwear and activewear.
Our operations are managed in five operating segments, each of which is a reportable segment for financial reporting purposes: Innerwear, Outerwear, Hosiery, International and Other. These segments are organized principally by product category and geographic location. Management of each segment is responsible for the operations of these businesses.
| | |
| • | Innerwear. The Innerwear segment focuses on core apparel essentials, and consists of products such as women’s intimate apparel, men’s underwear, kids’ underwear, socks, thermals and sleepwear, marketed under well-known brands that are trusted by consumers. We are an intimate apparel category leader in the United States with ourHanes,Playtex,Bali,Just My Size,barely there, andWonderbrabrands. We are also a leading manufacturer and marketer of men’s underwear and kids’ underwear under theHanesandChampion brand names. Our net sales for the first quarter ended March 29, 2008 from our Innerwear segment were $544 million, representing approximately 54% of total segment net sales. |
|
| • | Outerwear. We are a leader in the casualwear and activewear markets through ourHanes,ChampionandJust My Sizebrands, where we offer products such as t-shirts and fleece. Our casualwear lines offer a range of quality, comfortable clothing for men, women and children marketed under theHanesandJust My Sizebrands. TheJust My Sizebrand offers casual apparel designed exclusively to meet the needs of plus-size women. In addition to activewear for men and women,Championprovides uniforms for athletic programs and includes an apparel program,C9 by Champion,at Target stores. We also license ourChampionname for collegiate apparel and footwear. We also supply our t-shirts, sportshirts and fleece products primarily to wholesalers, who then resell to screen printers and embellishers, through brands such asHanes,ChampionandOuter Banks. Our net sales for the first quarter ended March 29, 2008 from our Outerwear segment were $272 million, representing approximately 27% of total segment net sales. |
|
| • | Hosiery. We are the leading marketer of women’s sheer hosiery in the United States. We compete in the hosiery market by striving to offer superior values and executing integrated marketing activities, as well as focusing on the style of our hosiery products. We market hosiery products under ourHanes,L’eggsandJust My Sizebrands. Our net sales for the first quarter ended March 29, 2008 from our Hosiery segment were $67 million, representing approximately 7% of total segment net sales. We expect the trend of declining hosiery sales to continue consistent with the overall decline in the industry and with shifts in consumer preferences. |
22
| | |
| • | International. International includes products that span across the Innerwear, Outerwear and Hosiery reportable segments and include products marketed under theHanes,Champion,Wonderbra,Playtex,Rinbros,BaliandStedmanbrands. Our net sales for the first quarter ended March 29, 2008 from our International segment were $105 million, representing approximately 11% of total segment net sales and included sales in Latin America, Asia, Canada and Europe. Japan, Canada and Mexico are our largest international markets, and we also have sales offices in India and China. |
|
| • | Other. Our net sales for the first quarter ended March 29, 2008 in our Other segment were $11 million, representing approximately 1% of total segment net sales and are comprised of sales of nonfinished products such as fabric and certain other materials in the United States and Latin America in order to maintain asset utilization at certain manufacturing facilities and generate break even margins. |
Our operating results are subject to some variability. Generally, our diverse range of product offerings helps mitigate the impact of seasonal changes in demand for certain items. Sales are typically higher in the last two quarters (July to December) of each fiscal year. Socks, hosiery and fleece products generally have higher sales during this period as a result of cooler weather, back-to-school shopping and holidays. Sales levels in a period are also impacted by customers’ decisions to increase or decrease their inventory levels in response to anticipated consumer demand. Our customers may cancel orders, change delivery schedules or change the mix of products ordered with minimal notice to us. Our results of operations are also impacted by fluctuations and volatility in the price of cotton and the timing of actual spending for our media, advertising and promotion expenses. 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. Our costs for cotton yarn and cotton-based textiles vary based upon the fluctuating cost of cotton, which is affected by weather, consumer demand, speculation on the commodities market, the relative valuations and fluctuations of the currencies of producer versus consumer countries and other factors that are generally unpredictable and beyond our control. While we do enter into short-term supply agreements and hedges in an attempt to protect our business from the volatility of the market price of cotton, our business can be affected by dramatic movements in cotton prices, although cotton has historically represented only 6% of our cost of sales. Cotton prices were 54 cents per pound in the first quarter of 2008 as compared to 56 cents per pound in the first quarter of 2007. Taking into consideration the agreements that we currently have in effect and cotton costs currently included in inventory, we expect our cost of cotton to average 66 cents per pound for the full year 2008. The price of cotton currently in our inventory has risen to the 70 cents per pound range which is the price that will impact our operating results in the third and fourth quarters of 2008. Additionally, the prices for the cotton crop grown this coming summer season, which will impact our operating results in 2009, have risen to the upper 70 cents per pound range.

Consolidated net sales were lower by $52 million or 5.0% in the first quarter of 2008 compared to 2007. Our Innerwear, Outerwear, Hosiery and Other segment net sales were lower by $47 million (7.9%), $11 million (4.0%), $7 million (9.4%) and $4 million (27.8%), respectively, and were partially offset by higher segment net sales in International of $14 million (15.3%). 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, softness in the retail environment can impact our results in the short-term, as it did in the first quarter of 2008. Sales to our retail customers during the first quarter of 2008 were reflective of a difficult economic and retail environment in which the ultimate consumers of our products have been limiting their discretionary spending.
The net sales decline was broad based affecting most product categories and most customers. The overall lower net sales were primarily due to a decline in sales volume across most product categories in our key brandsHanes, Champion, Bali,Just My Sizeandbarely there. Playtexbrand net sales were flat compared to last year. Net sales in the Hosiery segment were lower primarily due to lower sales of theHanesbrand to national chains and department stores and theL’eggsbrand to mass retailers and food and drug stores. We expect the trend of declining hosiery sales to continue consistent with the overall decline in the industry and with shifts in consumer preferences.
The lower net sales were partially offset by higher net sales in the International segment that were driven by a favorable impact of $11 million related to foreign currency exchange rates. The favorable impact was primarily due to the strengthening of the Canadian dollar, Euro, Japanese yen and Brazilian real and by the growth in the European casualwear business.

Gross profit | | $ | 344,964 | | | $ | 339,679 | | | $ | 5,285 | | | | 1.6 | % |
As a percent of net sales, our gross profit percentage was 34.9% in the first quarter of 2008 compared to 32.7% in 2007. The higher gross profit percentage was primarily due to $11 million of savings from our cost reduction initiatives and prior restructuring actions, $11 million of lower production costs, a $5 million favorable impact related to foreign currency exchange rates, and lower accelerated depreciation of $3 million. The favorable foreign currency exchange rate impact in our International segment was primarily due to the strengthening of the Canadian dollar, Euro, Japanese yen and Brazilian real.
These lower costs were partially offset by $19 million of lower sales volume, higher freight costs of $5 million primarily due to a greater use of air freight and higher sales incentives of $2 million.
Our per pound cotton costs were $2 million lower in the first quarter of 2008 as compared to 2007. The cotton prices reflected in our results were 54 cents per pound in the first quarter of 2008 as compared to 56 cents per pound in 2007. After taking into consideration the agreements that we currently have in effect and cotton costs currently included in inventory, we expect our cost of cotton to average 66 cents per pound for the full year 2008.

Our selling, general and administrative expenses were flat in the first quarter of 2008 compared to 2007. Our cost reduction efforts have allowed us to offset higher investments in our strategic initiatives of higher media related media, advertising and promotion expenses (“MAP”) of $10 million and higher technology consulting expenses of $9 million during the first quarter of 2008. Our media related MAP expenses were higher in the first quarter of 2008 to support the launch ofHanesNo Ride Up Panties and marketing initiatives forPlaytex.
The higher expenses were offset by $8 million of savings from our prior restructuring actions primarily for compensation and related benefits, $4 million of lower pension expense, $2 million of lower stock compensation expense, $2 million of lower distribution expenses and $2 million of lower non-media related MAP expenses. MAP 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.

Restructuring | | $ | 2,558 | | | $ | 16,246 | | | $ | (13,688 | ) | | | (84.3 | )% |
During the first quarter of 2008, we approved actions to close two manufacturing facilities and eliminate approximately 1,100 employees in Heredia, Costa Rica and Aguascalientes, Mexico during the next twelve months. This production capacity will be relocated to lower cost locations in Asia and Central America. We recorded a charge of $3 million primarily attributable to employee termination and other benefits recognized in accordance with benefit plans previously communicated to the affected employee group. In connection with our consolidation and globalization strategy, in the first quarters of 2008 and 2007 we recognized non-cash
25
charges of $3 million and $5 million, respectively, in the “Cost of sales” line and a non-cash charge of $1 million in the “Selling, general and administrative expenses” line in the first quarter of 2008 related to accelerated depreciation of buildings and equipment for facilities that have been closed or will be closed.
The change in restructuring expense in 2008 compared to 2007 is attributable to $16 million in restructuring charges we incurred during the first quarter of 2007 which primarily related to a $10 million charge for lease termination costs and $6 million in charges for employee termination and other benefits associated with previously approved actions for plant closures.
These actions, which are a continuation of our consolidation and globalization strategy, are expected to result in benefits of moving production to lower-cost manufacturing facilities, leveraging our large scale in high-volume products and consolidating production capacity.

Operating profit was higher in the first quarter of 2008 by $19 million compared to 2007 primarily as a result of lower restructuring charges for facility closures of $14 million and higher gross profit of $5 million. Our ability to control costs and execute on our consolidation and globalization strategy has allowed us to offset higher investments in our strategic initiatives of $19 million during the first quarter of 2008 compared to 2007.

Interest expense, net was lower by $11 million in the first quarter of 2008 compared to 2007. The lower interest expense is primarily attributable to a lower weighted average interest rate, $6 million of which resulted from a lower LIBOR and $2 million of which resulted from reduced interest rates achieved through changes in our financing structure such as the February 2007 amendment to our senior secured credit facility and our accounts receivable securitization that we entered into in November 2007. In addition, interest expense was reduced by $3 million as a result of our net prepayments of long-term debt during 2007 of $178 million. Our weighted average interest rate on our outstanding debt was 6.69% during the first quarter of 2008 compared to 7.89% in 2007.

Our estimated annual effective income tax rate was 24% in the first quarter of 2008 compared to 30% in 2007. The lower effective income tax rate is attributable primarily to higher unremitted earnings from foreign subsidiaries in the first quarter of 2008 taxed at rates less than the U.S. statutory rate. Our estimated annual effective tax rate is reflective of our strategic initiative to make substantial capital investments outside the United States in our global supply chain in 2008.

Overall net sales in the Innerwear segment were lower by $47 million or 7.9% in the first quarter of 2008 compared to 2007. The net sales decline was broad based, affecting most product categories and most customers. We experienced lower sales ofHanesbrand men’s underwear of $10 million, lowerHanesbrand kids’ underwear sales of $8 million, lowerChampionbrand sock sales of $4 million, lowerHanesbrand socks sales of $3 million and lowerHanesbrand sleepwear sales of $3 million.

As a percent of segment net sales, gross profit percentage in the Innerwear segment was 38.3% in the first quarter of 2008 compared to 38.6% in 2007. The lower gross profit is primarily attributable to lower sales volume of $15 million, unfavorable product sales mix of $8 million, higher freight costs of $5 million and higher production costs of $2 million. These factors were partially offset by savings from our cost reduction initiatives and prior restructuring actions of $7 million and lower excess and obsolete inventory costs of $5 million.
The lower Innerwear segment operating profit in the first quarter of 2008 compared to 2007 is primarily attributable to lower gross profit on lower sales volume, higher MAP expenses of $10 million and higher technology consulting expenses of $5 million partially offset by savings from prior restructuring actions of $5 million and lower distribution expenses of $2 million and $3 million of lower spending in numerous other areas. A significant portion of the selling, general and administrative expenses in each segment is an allocation of our consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses, however certain expenses that are specifically identifiable to a segment are charged directly to each segment.

Net sales in the Hosiery segment were lower by $7 million or 9.4% in the first quarter of 2008 compared to 2007 primarily due to lower sales of theHanesbrand to national chains and department stores and theL’eggsbrand to mass retailers and food and drug stores. We expect the trend of declining hosiery sales to continue consistent with the overall decline in the industry and with shifts in consumer preferences.
As a percent of segment net sales, gross profit percentage was 53.0% in the first quarter of 2008 compared to 45.7% in 2007 primarily due to lower production costs of $3 million and lower sales incentives of $2 million. These lower expenses were partially offset by an unfavorable product sales mix of $4 million.
Hosiery segment operating profit was higher in the first quarter of 2008 compared to 2007 primarily due to the improvement in gross profit, savings from our cost reduction initiatives and prior restructuring actions of $1 million and lower non media related MAP expenses of $1 million.

Overall net sales in the International segment were higher by $14 million or 15.3% in the first quarter of 2008 compared to 2007. During the first quarter of 2008 we experienced higher net sales, in each case including the impact of foreign currency, in Europe of $5 million, Canada of $5 million and Latin America of $3 million. The growth in our European casualwear business was driven by the strength of theStedmanbrand that is sold in the embellishment channel. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates had a favorable impact on net sales of $11 million in the first quarter of 2008 compared to 2007. The favorable foreign currency exchange rate impact was primarily due to the strengthening of the Canadian dollar, Euro, Japanese yen and Brazilian real.
As a percent of segment net sales, gross profit percentage was 42.6% in the first quarter of 2008 compared to 40.9% in 2007.

The higher International segment operating profit in the first quarter of 2008 compared to 2007 is primarily attributable to the higher gross profit from higher sales volume. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates, which are included in the impact on gross profit above, had a favorable impact on segment operating profit of $2 million in the first quarter of 2008 compared to 2007.

Overall lower net sales from our Other segment were primarily due to lower sales of nonfinished fabric and other materials to third parties in the first quarter of 2008 as compared to 2007. Net sales in this segment are generated for the purpose of maintaining asset utilization at certain manufacturing facilities and generating break even margins.
General Corporate Expenses
General corporate expenses were lower in the first quarter of 2008 compared to 2007 primarily due to higher foreign exchange transaction gains of $3 million and $2 million of lowerstart-up and shut-down costs.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Trends and Uncertainties Affecting Liquidity
Our primary sources of liquidity are our cash flows from operating activities and availability under our revolving loan facility. At March 29, 2008, we have in excess of $600 million of liquidity, which consists of $436 million of borrowing availability under our undrawn $500 million revolving loan facility (after taking into account outstanding letters of credit), $121 million in cash and cash equivalents and $96 million of borrowing availability under our international loan facilities. We currently believe that our cash provided from operating activities, together with our available credit capacity, will enable us to comply with the terms of our indebtedness and meet foreseeable liquidity requirements.
The following has or is expected to impact liquidity:
| | |
| • | we have principal and interest obligations under our long-term debt; |
|
| • | we expect to continue to invest in efforts to improve operating efficiencies and lower costs; |
|
| • | we expect to continue to add new manufacturing capacity in Central America, the Caribbean Basin and Asia; |
|
| • | we anticipate that we will decrease the portion of the income of our foreign subsidiaries that is expected to be remitted to the United States, which could significantly decrease our effective income tax rate; and |
|
| • | we expect to repurchase up to 10 million shares of our stock in the open market over the next few years, 1.9 million of which we have repurchased as of March 29, 2008. |
We expect to continue our restructuring efforts as we continue to execute our consolidation and globalization strategy. The implementation of these efforts, which are designed to improve operating efficiencies and lower costs, has resulted and is likely to continue to result in significant costs and savings. As further plans are developed and approved by management and in some cases our board of directors, we expect to recognize additional restructuring to eliminate duplicative functions within the organization and transition a significant portion of our manufacturing capacity to lower-cost locations. As part of our efforts to consolidate our operations, we also expect to continue to incur costs associated with the integration of our information
30
technology systems across our company over the next several years. This process involves the replacement of eight independent information technology platforms so that our business functions are served by fewer platforms.
While capital spending could vary significantly from year to year, we anticipate that our capital spending over the next three years could be as high as $500 million as we execute our supply chain consolidation and globalization strategy and complete the integration and consolidation of our technology systems. Capital spending in any given year over the next three years could be as high as $100 million in excess of our annual depreciation and amortization expense until the completion of actions related to our globalization strategy at which time we would expect our annual capital spending to be relatively comparable to our annual depreciation and amortization expense. The majority of our capital spending will be focused on growing our supply chain operations in Central America, the Caribbean Basin and Asia. These locations will enable us to expand and leverage our large production scale as we balance our supply chain across hemispheres.
As we continue to add new manufacturing capacity in Central America, the Caribbean Basin and Asia, our exposure to events that could disrupt our foreign supply chain, including political instability, acts of war or terrorism or other international events resulting in the disruption of trade, disruptions in shipping and freight forwarding services, increases in oil prices (which would increase the cost of shipping), interruptions in the availability of basic services and infrastructure and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, is increased. Disruptions in our foreign supply chain could negatively impact our liquidity by interrupting production in facilities outside the United States, increasing our cost of sales, disrupting merchandise deliveries, delaying receipt of the products into the United States or preventing us from sourcing our products at all. Depending on timing, these events could also result in lost sales, cancellation charges or excessive markdowns.
Our U.S. qualified pension plans are currently approximately 97% funded which should result in minimal pension funding requirements in the future. Due to the current funded status of the plans, we are not required to make any mandatory contributions to our pension plans in 2008.

Operating Activities
Net cash used in operating activities was $19 million in the first quarter of 2008 compared to $1 million in 2007. The higher cash used in operating activities of $18 million is attributable to the higher uses of our working capital which was primarily driven by changes in inventory and accrued liabilities offset by accounts receivable. While inventory levels grew $107 million from December 2007 year-end levels as we build for back-to-school programs, inventory levels are lower compared to the first quarter of 2007 by $30 million. We monitor our inventory levels to best balance current supply and demand with potential future demand that typically surges when consumers no longer postpone purchases in our product categories.
31
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities was $21 million in the first quarter of 2008 compared to $4 million in 2007. The higher cash used in investing activities of $17 million was primarily the result of higher capital expenditures. During the first quarter of 2008 capital expenditures were $28 million as we continue to build out our textile and sewing network in Central America and Asia and invest in our technology strategic initiatives.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities was $14 million in the first quarter of 2008 compared to $3 million in 2007. The higher cash used in financing activities of $11 million was primarily the result of higher net repayments on notes payable of $3 million and stock repurchases of $8 million.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
As of March 29, 2008 and December 29, 2007, cash and cash equivalents were $121 million and $174 million, respectively. The lower cash and cash equivalents as of March 29, 2008 was primarily the result of net capital expenditures of $21 million, $8 million of stock repurchases, $6 million of net repayments on notes payable and $18 million related to other uses of working capital.
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 position in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. We apply these accounting policies in a consistent manner. Our significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 2, titled “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report onForm 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2007.
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 consolidated 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 onForm 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2007. There have been no material changes during the first quarter ended March 29, 2008 in these policies.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Fair Value Measurements
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”). SFAS 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value in generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS 157 was effective for our financial assets and liabilities on December 30, 2007. The FASB approved a one-year deferral of the adoption of SFAS 157 as it relates to non-financial assets and liabilities with the issuance in February 2008 of FASB Staff PositionFAS 157-2, Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157, as a result of which implementation by us is now required on January 4, 2009. The partial adoption of SFAS 157 in the first quarter ended March 29, 2008 had no material impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows, but resulted in certain additional disclosures reflected in Note 8 of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
32
SFAS 157 clarifies that fair value is an exit price, representing the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. We utilize market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. SFAS 157 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs about which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.
Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are based on one or more of three valuation techniques noted in SFAS 157. The three valuation techniques are as follows:
| | |
| • | Market approach — prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. |
|
| • | Cost approach — amount that would be required to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost. |
|
| • | Income approach — techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount based on market expectations, including present value techniques, option-pricing and other models. |
We primarily apply the market approach for commodity derivatives and the income approach for interest rate and foreign currency derivatives for recurring fair value measurements and attempt to utilize valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.
As of March 29, 2008, we held certain financial assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These consisted of our derivative instruments related to interest rates, foreign exchange rates and cotton. The fair values of cotton derivatives are determined based on quoted prices in public markets and are categorized as Level 1. The fair values of interest rate and foreign exchange rate derivatives are determined based on inputs that are readily available in public markets or can be derived from information available in publicly quoted markets and are categorized as Level 2. We do not have any financial assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis categorized as Level 3, and there were no transfers in or out of Level 3 during the quarter ended March 29, 2008. There were no changes to our valuation technique used to measure asset and liability fair values on a recurring basis.
As required by SFAS 157, assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Our assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment, and may affect the valuation of fair value assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy levels. The determination of fair values incorporates various factors required under SFAS 157. These factors include not only the credit standing of the counterparties involved and the impact of credit enhancements, but also the impact of our nonperformance risk on our liabilities.
Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities
In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 permits companies to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value under generally accepted accounting principles and establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. The provisions of SFAS 159 became effective for us on December 30, 2007. As permitted by SFAS 159, we elected not to adopt the fair value option.
33
Business Combinations
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141 (revised 2007), “Business Combinations” (“SFAS 141R”). The objective of SFAS 141R is to improve the relevance, representational faithfulness, and comparability of the information that a company provides in its financial reports about a business combination and its effects. Under SFAS 141R, a company would be required to recognize the assets acquired, liabilities assumed, contractual contingencies and contingent consideration measured at their fair value at the acquisition date. It further requires that research and development assets acquired in a business combination that have no alternative future use be measured at their acquisition-date fair value and then immediately charged to expense, and that acquisition-related costs are to be recognized separately from the acquisition and expensed as incurred. Among other changes, this statement would also require that “negative goodwill” be recognized in earnings as a gain attributable to the acquisition, and any deferred tax benefits resulting from a business combination be recognized in income from continuing operations in the period of the combination. We are in the process of analyzing the impact of SFAS 141R, which is effective for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2008.
Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements
In December 2007, the FASB issued Statement No. 160, “Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements — an amendment of ARB No. 51” (“SFAS 160”). The objective of this Statement is to improve the relevance, comparability, and transparency of the financial information that a company provides in its consolidated financial statements. SFAS 160 requires a company to clearly identify and present ownership interests in subsidiaries held by parties other than the company in the consolidated financial statements within the equity section but separate from the company’s equity. It also requires the amount of consolidated net income attributable to the parent and to the noncontrolling interest be clearly identified and presented on the face of the consolidated statement of income; that changes in ownership interest be accounted for similarly, as equity transactions; and when a subsidiary is deconsolidated, that any retained noncontrolling equity investment in the former subsidiary and the gain or loss on the deconsolidation of the subsidiary be measured at fair value. SFAS 160 is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning on or after December 15, 2008. We do not believe that the adoption of SFAS 160 will have a material impact on our results of operations or financial position.
Disclosures About Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures About Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities — an amendment of FASB Statement No. 133 (“SFAS 161”). SFAS 161 expands the disclosure requirements of FASB Statement No. 133 about an entity’s derivative instruments and hedging activities to include more detailed qualitative disclosures and expanded quantitative disclosures. The provisions of SFAS 161 are effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. We are currently evaluating the impact that SFAS 161 will have on our results of operations and financial position.
| |
Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk |
We are required under the Senior Secured Credit Facility and the Second Lien Credit Facility to hedge a portion of our floating rate debt to reduce interest rate risk caused by floating rate debt issuance. At March 29, 2008, we have outstanding hedging arrangements whereby we capped the interest rate on $950 million of our floating rate debt at 5.75%. We also entered into interest rate swaps tied to the3-month and6-month LIBOR rates whereby we fixed the interest rate on an aggregate of $600 million of our floating rate debt. Approximately 67% of our total debt outstanding at March 29, 2008 is at a fixed or capped rate. Due to the recent significant changes in the credit markets, the fair values of our interest rate hedging instruments have decreased approximately $14.8 million during the first quarter ended March 29, 2008, which has been deferred into Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet until the hedged transactions impact our earnings.
34
Cotton is the primary raw material we use to manufacture many of our products. While we attempt to protect our business from the volatility of the market price of cotton through short-term supply agreements and hedges, our business can be adversely affected by dramatic movements in cotton prices. The price of cotton has recently exceeded its historical trading range of 30 to 70 cents per pound. The price of cotton currently in our inventory has risen to the 70 cents per pound range which is the price that will impact our operating results in the third and fourth quarters of 2008. Additionally, the prices for the cotton crop grown this coming summer season, which will impact our operating results in 2009, have risen to the upper 70 cents per pound range. The ultimate effect of these pricing levels on our earnings cannot be quantified, as the effect of movements in cotton prices on industry selling prices are uncertain, but any dramatic increase in the price of cotton could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
There have been no other significant changes in our market risk exposures from those described in Item 7A of our Annual Report onForm 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2007.

Item 4. | Controls and Procedures |
As required by Exchange ActRule 13a-15(b), our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange ActRule 13a-15(e), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
In connection with the evaluation required by Exchange ActRule 13a-15(d), our management, including the 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.
