FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Part I
This Annual Report on Form 10-K contains information that may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange
Act”). Forward-looking statements include all statements that do not relate solely to historical or current facts, and can
generally be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “believe,” “will,” “expect,” “project,” “estimate,” “intend,”
“anticipate,” “plan,” “continue” or similar expressions. However, the absence of these words or similar expressions does not
mean that a statement is not forward-looking. All statements regarding our intent, belief and current expectations about our
strategic direction, prospects and future results are forward-looking statements. Management believes that these forward-
looking statements are reasonable as and when made. However, caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any such
forward-looking statements because such statements speak only as of the date when made. We undertake no obligation to
publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise,
except as required by law. In addition, forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause
actual results to differ materially from our historical experience and our present expectations or projections. These risks and
uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those described under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this report and those
described from time to time in our future reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).
PART I
Item 1.
Business
Company Overview
Hanesbrands Inc. (collectively with its subsidiaries, “Hanesbrands,” “we,” “us,” “our” or the “Company”) is a socially
responsible leading marketer of everyday basic innerwear and activewear apparel in the Americas, Australia, Europe and Asia
under some of the world’s strongest apparel brands, including Hanes, Champion, Bonds, Maidenform, Bali, Bras N Things,
Playtex, JMS/Just My Size, Gear for Sports, Wonderbra, Berlei, Comfortwash and Alternative. Our products are marketed to
consumers shopping in mass merchants, mid-tier and department stores, specialty stores, e-commerce sites, as well as our own
retail locations and websites.
We operate in the global innerwear and global activewear apparel categories. We believe these are stable, heavily branded
categories where we have a strong consumer franchise based on a global portfolio of industry-leading brands that we have built
over multiple decades, through hundreds of millions of direct interactions with consumers. Our multi-year growth strategy
(“Full Potential plan”) focuses on four pillars to drive growth and enhance long-term profitability and identifies the initiatives to
unlock growth. Our four pillars of growth are to grow the Champion brand globally, drive growth in Innerwear with brands and
products that appeal to younger consumers, build e-commerce excellence across channels and streamline our global portfolio.
In order to deliver this growth and create a more efficient and productive business model, we have launched a multi-year cost
savings program intended to self-fund the investments necessary to achieve the Full Potential plan’s objectives. We remain
confident that our strong brand portfolio, world-class supply chain and diverse category and geographic footprint will help us
unlock our full potential, deliver long-term growth and create stockholder value.
In the first quarter of 2021, we announced that as part of our strategic plan, we reached the decision to exit our European
Innerwear business as part of our strategy to streamline our portfolio under our Full Potential plan and determined that this
business met held-for-sale and discontinued operations accounting criteria. Accordingly, we began to separately report the
results of our European Innerwear business as discontinued operations. On November 4, 2021, we announced that we reached
an agreement to sell this business to an affiliate of Regent, L.P. and completed the sale on March 5, 2022. Unless otherwise
noted, all discussion within this Annual Report on Form 10-K, including amounts and percentages for all periods, reflect the
results of our continuing operations. See Note “Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale” to our consolidated financial statements
included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information.
In addition, in the fourth quarter of 2021, we reached the decision to divest our U.S. Sheer Hosiery business, including the
L’eggs brand, as part of our strategy to streamline our portfolio under our Full Potential plan and determined that this business
met held-for-sale accounting criteria. We are currently exploring potential purchasers for this business and expect to complete
the sale within the next 12 months. See Note “Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale” to our consolidated financial statements
included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information.
In June of 2022, we purchased the Champion trademark for footwear in the United States, Puerto Rico and Canada from
Keds, LLC (“KEDS”) for $103 million. The trademark was recorded in “Trademarks and other identifiable intangibles, net”
line in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and has an indefinite life. We previously licensed the Champion trademark for footwear
in these locations. The purchase of the trademark was part of an agreement with KEDS settling litigation between the two
parties and is another step forward in our Full Potential plan of growing the global Champion brand.
1
Part I
In November 2022 and in February 2023, given economic conditions and the associated impact on earnings, we amended
the credit agreement governing our Senior Secured Credit Facility to modify the financial covenants in order to avoid a
potential covenant violation and to provide operating flexibility as described in Note “Debt” to our consolidated financial
statements and “Liquidity and Capital Resources” within Part II, Item 7 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations” included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. We expect to maintain compliance with
our covenants for at least one year from the issuance of these financial statements based on our current expectations and
forecasts, however economic conditions or the occurrence of events discussed under “Risk Factors” in this Annual Report on
Form 10-K or other SEC filings could impact our ability to maintain compliance or require us to seek additional amendments to
the credit agreement.
Unlike most apparel companies, Hanesbrands primarily operates its own manufacturing facilities. Over 60% of the
apparel units that we sell are manufactured in our own plants or those of dedicated contractors. Owning the majority of our
supply chain benefits cost, scale and flexibility, as well as improves our ability to adhere to best-in-class management and
environmental practices.
We take great pride in our strong reputation for ethical business practices and the success of our corporate responsibility
program for community and environmental improvement. Hanesbrands earned a leadership level A- score in both the 2022
CDP Climate Change Report and the 2022 CDP Water Security Report, placing us in the top 11% and top 12%, respectively,
out of the nearly 15,000 companies rated. We have received either the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Energy Star
Sustained Excellence Award or Partner of the Year Award for 13 consecutive years. We are also a recognized leader for our
community-building, philanthropy and workplace practices.
In late 2020, we announced our commitment to making the world a more comfortable, livable and inclusive place by
establishing new wide-ranging 2025/2030 global sustainability goals and launching a new sustainability website,
www.HBISustains.com. This website is designed to increase our transparency and reporting on key metrics and is being updated
yearly to track our progress against these long-term goals. We made excellent progress in 2021 and continued to do so in 2022.
We approach sustainability from a broad, holistic perspective across our three pillars of People, Planet and Product. Our
efforts are also focused in areas addressed by the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, such as: good health and
well-being; quality education; gender equality; climate action; clean water and sanitation; affordable and clean energy;
economic growth; reduced inequalities; and responsible consumption and production.
Our fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to December 31. All references to “2022”, “2021” and “2020” relate to the
52-week fiscal year ended on December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022, and the 53-week fiscal year ended on January 2, 2021,
respectively.
We make available copies of materials we file with, or furnish to, the SEC free of charge at www.Hanes.com/investors (in
the “Investors” section). By referring to our corporate website, www.Hanes.com/corporate, our sustainability website,
www.HBISustains.com, or any of our other websites, we do not incorporate any such website or its contents into this Annual
Report on Form 10-K.
Our Brands
Our portfolio of leading brands is designed to address the needs and wants of various consumer segments across a broad
range of basic apparel products. Our brands have strong consumer positioning that helps distinguish them from competitors and
guides their advertising and product development. We discuss some of our most important brands in more detail below.
Hanes is the largest and most widely recognized brand in our portfolio. Hanes is the number one selling apparel brand in
the United States and is found in nine out of ten U.S. households. The Hanes brand covers all of our product categories,
including men’s underwear, women’s panties, children’s underwear, bras, socks, T-shirts, fleece and shapewear. Hanes stands
for outstanding comfort, style and value. Hanes is one of the most widely distributed brands in apparel, with a presence across
mass merchandise retailers, e-commerce sites, discount stores and department stores. Through collaborations with third parties,
the brand has also gained distribution with specialty retailers and high-end retail establishments. Following the successful
launch of Hanes Total Support Pouch underwear platform in 2021, this year Hanes launched the Hanes Originals line of
innovative products with more modern silhouettes aimed at younger consumers. Our Hanes Originals launch at select retailers
in November and December in Canada and the U.S., respectively, was the first multi-category, multi-geography product
introduction under our new global innovation process.
Champion is our second-largest brand. Founded in Rochester, New York in 1919, Champion has always been known for
authentic American style and performance and helped pioneer some of the most important innovations in athleticwear,
including reverse weave sweatshirts, mesh practice uniforms and sports bras. Champion athleticwear can be found in sporting
goods retailers, e-commerce sites, department stores, college bookstores and specialty retailers, as well as in our own retail
locations and our Champion.com website. In addition, Champion has collaborated with designers and other iconic brands
2
Part I
around the world, including Hasbro Gaming, General Mills, Muhammad Ali, Sesame Street, Todd Snyder, Cobra Kai, the
Beastie Boys, Disney and Stranger Things. We believe the Champion brand continues to be a powerful global growth platform
for Hanesbrands.
Our global portfolio includes another megabrand with strong heritage and deep household penetration in its respective
market. The Bonds brand is over a century old and is Australia’s largest and most well-known innerwear brand, holding the
number one position in men’s underwear, women’s panties, children’s underwear, socks, and the baby clothing category. The
portfolio also extends to casual apparel, activewear, sleepwear and bras. With a market penetration above 90%, there are over
12 items of Bonds in every Australian household. Historically a wholesale only brand, Bonds now boasts a retail store network
of over 140 stores, a thriving e-commerce business and growing omnichannel services making it easier for consumers to
interact across multiple direct to consumer formats.
Our portfolio also includes a number of iconic intimate apparel brands. Maidenform is America’s number one shapewear
brand and has been trusted for stylish, modern bras, panties and shapewear since 1922. Bali offers a range of bras, panties and
shapewear sold in the department store channel and is the number one bra brand in U.S. department stores. Playtex, an iconic
American brand, offers a range of full-figure wirefree support bras and is sold everywhere from mass merchandise retailers to
department stores.
In addition, we offer a variety of products under the following well-known brands: Bras N Things, JMS/Just My Size,
Gear for Sports, Wonderbra, Berlei, Comfortwash and Alternative.
These brands complement our primary product offerings, allowing us to give consumers a variety of options to meet their
diverse needs.
Our Segments
Our operations are managed and reported in three operating segments, each of which is a reportable segment for financial
reporting purposes: Innerwear, Activewear and International. These segments are organized principally by product category and
geographic location. Each segment has its own management team that is responsible for the operations of the segment’s
businesses, but the segments share a common supply chain and media and marketing platforms.
The following table summarizes our operating segments by product category:

and children’s underwear in the United States under the Hanes, Champion and Polo Ralph Lauren brands. During 2022, net
sales from our Innerwear segment were $2.4 billion, representing approximately 39% of total net sales.

thermals, sold in the United States. We are a leader in the activewear market through our Champion, Hanes, Gear for Sports,
Comfortwash, Alternative and JMS/Just My Size brands, where we sell products such as T-shirts and fleece to both retailers and
wholesalers. We license our Champion name for footwear and sports accessories. We also sell licensed logo apparel primarily
3

Customers and Distribution Channels
Our products are primarily distributed through our wholesale customers’ stores and websites, as well as through our own
stores and websites. In 2022, approximately 69% of our total net sales were in the United States and approximately 31% were
outside the United States. Our largest customer is Walmart Inc. (“Walmart”), accounting for 16% of our total net sales in 2022.
As is common in the basic apparel industry, we generally do not have purchase agreements that obligate our customers to
purchase our products. However, the majority of our key customer relationships have been in place for 10 years or more.
Walmart is our only customer with sales that exceeded 10% of our total net sales in 2022, with substantially all Walmart sales
reported within our Innerwear and Activewear segments.
Sales to mass merchants in the United States accounted for approximately 19% of our total net sales in 2022 and included
all of our product categories under our Hanes, Playtex, Maidenform and JMS/Just My Size brands, as well as licensed logo
apparel. Mass merchants feature high-volume, low-cost sales of basic apparel items along with a diverse variety of consumer
goods products, such as grocery and drug products and other hard lines. Our largest mass merchant customer is Walmart.
Sales to mid-tier and department stores in the United States accounted for approximately 8% of our total net sales in 2022.
Mid-tier stores target a higher-income consumer than mass merchants, focus more on sales of apparel items rather than other
consumer goods such as grocery and drug products. We sell all of our product categories in mid-tier stores. Traditional
department stores target higher-income consumers and carry more high-end, fashion conscious products than mid-tier stores or
mass merchants and tend to operate in higher-income areas and commercial centers. We sell products in our intimate apparel,
underwear, socks and activewear categories through department stores.
Consumer-directed sales in the United States accounted for approximately 17% of our total net sales in 2022. We sell
products that span across the Innerwear and Activewear product categories in the e-commerce environment through our owned
e-commerce websites and through pure play e-commerce sites. We also sell a range of our products through our retail and
value-based outlet stores, as well as through the e-commerce sites of our brick-and-mortar retail customers.
4
Part I
Sales to other customers in the United States represented approximately 25% of our total net sales in 2022. We sell T-
shirts, golf and sport shirts and fleece sweatshirts to wholesalers and third-party embellishers primarily under our Hanes,
Champion and Hanes Beefy-T brands. We also sell a significant range of our underwear, activewear and socks products under
the Champion brand to wholesale clubs and sporting goods stores. We sell primarily underwear products under the Hanes
brands to food, drug and variety stores. We also sell licensed logo apparel in collegiate bookstores. We sell products that span
across our Innerwear and Activewear segments to the United States military for sale to servicemen and servicewomen and
through discount retailers.
Internationally, approximately 56% of our net sales were wholesale sales to retailers and 44% of our net sales were
consumer-directed sales through our owned retail stores and e-commerce sites. For more information about our sales on a
geographic basis, see Note “Geographic Area Information” to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual
Report on Form 10-K.
Manufacturing, Sourcing and Distribution
During 2022, over 60% of the apparel units we sold were from finished goods manufactured through a combination of
facilities we own and operate, and facilities owned and operated by dedicated third-party contractors who perform some of the
steps in the manufacturing process for us, such as dyeing, cutting and/or sewing. We sourced the remainder of our finished
goods from third-party manufacturers who supply us with finished products based on our designs. In making decisions about
the location of manufacturing operations and third-party sources of supply, we consider a number of factors, including labor,
local operating costs, geopolitical factors, product quality, regional infrastructure, applicable quotas and duties and freight costs.
We believe that our balanced approach to product supply, which relies on a combination of owned, contracted and sourced
manufacturing located across different geographic regions, increases the efficiency of our operations, reduces product costs,
diversifies risk and offers customers a reliable source of supply.
Finished Goods That Are Manufactured by Hanesbrands
The manufacturing process for the finished goods that we manufacture begins with raw materials we obtain from
suppliers. The principal raw materials in our product categories are cotton and synthetics. Cotton and synthetic materials are
typically spun into yarn by our suppliers, which is then knitted into cotton, synthetic and blended fabrics. We source all of our
yarn requirements from large-scale domestic and international suppliers. To a lesser extent, we purchase fabric from several
domestic and international suppliers in conjunction with our scheduled production. In addition to cotton yarn and cotton-based
textiles, we use thread, narrow elastic and trim for product identification, buttons, zippers, snaps and lace. These fabrics are cut
and sewn into finished products, either by us or by third-party contractors. We currently operate 30 manufacturing facilities.
Most of our cutting and sewing operations are strategically located in Asia, Central America and the Caribbean Basin. Alternate
sources of these materials and services are readily available.
Finished Goods That Are Manufactured by Third Parties
In addition to our own manufacturing capabilities, we also source finished goods from third-party manufacturers, also
referred to as “turnkey products.” Many of these turnkey products are sourced from international suppliers by our strategic
sourcing hubs in Asia.
All contracted and sourced manufacturing must meet our high-quality standards. Further, all contractors and third-party
manufacturers must be pre-audited and adhere to our strict supplier and business practices guidelines. These requirements
provide strict standards that, among other things, cover hours of work, age of workers, health and safety conditions, freedom of
association and conformity with local laws (including wage and hour laws) and Hanesbrands’ standards. Each new supplier
must be inspected and agree to comprehensive compliance terms prior to commencing any production on our behalf. We audit
compliance with these standards against our 265-question, scored audit protocol using both internal and external audit teams.
We are also a fully accredited participating company in the Fair Labor Association. For more information, visit
www.HBISustains.com.
Distribution
As of December 31, 2022, we distributed our products from 45 distribution centers. These facilities include 16 facilities
located in the United States and 29 facilities located outside the United States, primarily in regions where we sell our products.
We internally manage and operate 24 of these facilities, and we use third-party logistics providers who operate the other 21
facilities on our behalf.
5
Part I
Inventory
We believe effective inventory management is key to our success. Because our customers generally do not purchase our
products under long-term supply contracts, but rather on a purchase order basis, effective inventory management requires close
coordination with the customer base. We seek to ensure that products are available to meet customer demands while effectively
managing inventory levels. We employ various types of inventory management techniques that include collaborative
forecasting and planning, supplier-managed inventory, key event management and various forms of replenishment management
processes. Our supplier-managed inventory initiative is intended to shift raw material ownership and management to our
suppliers until consumption, freeing up cash and improving response time. We have demand management planners in our
customer management group who work closely with customers to develop demand forecasts that are passed to the supply chain.
We also have professionals within the customer management group who coordinate daily with our larger customers to help
ensure that our customers’ planned inventory levels are in fact available at their individual retail outlets. Additionally, within
our supply chain organization we have dedicated professionals who translate the demand forecast into our inventory strategy
and specific production plans. These individuals work closely with our customer management team to balance inventory
investment/exposure with customer service targets.
Seasonality and Other Factors
Absent the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, our operating results are subject to some variability due to seasonality and
other factors. For instance, we have historically generated higher sales during the back-to-school and holiday shopping seasons
and during periods of cooler weather, which benefits certain product categories such as fleece. Our diverse range of product
offerings, however, provides some mitigation to the impact of seasonal changes in demand for certain items. Sales levels in any
period are also impacted by customer 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. 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.
Inflation can have a long-term impact on us because increasing costs of materials and labor may impact our ability to
maintain satisfactory margins. For example, the cost of the materials that are used in our manufacturing process, such as oil-
related commodities and other raw materials, including cotton, dyes and chemicals, and other costs, such as fuel, energy and
utility costs, can fluctuate as a result of inflation and other factors. Disruptions to the global supply chain due to factory
closures, port congestion, transportation delays as well as labor and container shortages may negatively impact product
availability, revenue growth and gross margins. We will work to mitigate the impact of the global supply chain disruptions
through a combination of cost savings and operating efficiencies, as well as pricing actions, which could have an adverse
impact on demand.
Changes in product sales mix can impact our gross profit as the percentage of our sales attributable to higher margin
products, such as intimate apparel and men’s underwear, and lower margin products, such as seasonal and replenishable
activewear, fluctuate from time to time. In addition, sales attributable to higher and lower margin products within the same
product category fluctuate from time to time. Our customers may change the mix of products ordered with minimal notice to us,
which makes trends in product sales mix difficult to predict. However, certain changes in product sales mix are seasonal in
nature, as sales of socks and fleece products generally have higher sales during the last two quarters (July to December) of each
fiscal year as a result of cooler weather, back-to-school shopping and holidays, while other changes in product mix may be
attributable to consumers’ preferences and discretionary spending.

Part I
Product Innovation and Marketing
A significant component of our business strategy is our strong product research and development and innovation
capabilities, including the development of new and improved products, including our Tagless apparel platform, Comfort Flex
Fit apparel platform, ComfortBlend fabric platform, temperature-control X-Temp fabric platform, FreshIQ advanced odor
protection technology fabric platform, SmoothTec fabric technology, Cool Comfort fabric technology, DreamWire underwire
technology and Reverse Weave StormShell Fleece fabric technology. More recently, we launched Comfort Flex Fit Total
Support Pouch boxer briefs, offering a proprietary pouch construction, including unique breathable mesh inserts to help men
feel secure, separated and supported. The Total Support Pouch platform is the subject of a number of patent registrations and
pending applications. In 2022, we launched a new and improved line of the Total Support Pouch platform that incorporates our
X-Temp fabric technology, and we expect the patented pouch construction will continue to play a significant role in our
innovation pipeline. As noted above, we also launched an innovative line of underwear we are calling Hanes Originals – the
first multi-category, multi-geography product introduction under our new global innovation process. Finally, our product
research and development teams have done remarkable work to develop a proprietary absorbent layering platform, which we
believe has significant opportunity for platform expansion.
Driving innovation platforms across brands and categories is a major element of our business strategy as it is designed to
meet key consumer needs and leverage advertising dollars. During 2022 and 2021, our advertising and promotion expense was
approximately $209 million in both years, representing 3.4% of our total net sales in 2022 compared to 3.1% of net sales in
2021. We advertise in consumer and trade publications, television and through digital initiatives including social media, online
video and mobile platforms on the Internet. We also participate in cooperative advertising on a shared cost basis with major
retailers in print and digital media and television.
Competition
The basic apparel market is highly competitive and rapidly evolving. Competition generally is based upon brand, comfort,
fit, style and price. Our businesses face competition today from other large domestic and foreign corporations and
manufacturers. In the United States, across our Innerwear and Activewear segments, we compete with Fruit of the Loom, Inc., a
subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway Inc., through its own offerings and those of its Russell Corporation and Vanity Fair Intimates
offerings. Other competitors in our Innerwear segment include Victoria’s Secret & Co., Jockey International, Inc. and retailers’
private label offerings. Other competitors in our Activewear segment that we compete with both in the United States and
internationally include Gap Inc., Nike, Puma, Adidas and Under Amour. We also compete with many small manufacturers
across all of our business segments, including our International segment. Additionally, mass merchant retailers, department
stores and other retailers, including many of our customers, market and sell basic apparel products under private labels and
controlled brands that compete directly with our brands. Our competitive strengths include our strong brands with leading
market positions, our industry-leading innovation, our high-volume, core products focus, our significant scale of operations, our
global supply chain and our strong customer relationships. We continually strive to improve in each of these areas.
Intellectual Property
We market our products under hundreds of our own trademarks in the United States and other countries around the world,
the most widely recognized of which are Hanes, Champion, Bonds, Maidenform, Bali, Sheridan, Playtex, Bras N Things, JMS/
Just My Size, Gear for Sports, Wonderbra, Berlei, Comfortwash and Alternative,. Some of our products are sold under
trademarks that have been licensed from third parties, such as Polo Ralph Lauren men’s underwear, and licensed apparel for a
number of colleges and universities, including the University of Georgia, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, the
University of Texas, The Ohio State University and Wake Forest University.
Some of our trademarks are licensed to third parties, such as Champion for athletic-oriented accessories. In the United
States and Canada, the Playtex trademark is owned by Playtex Marketing Corporation, of which we own a 50% interest and
which grants to us a perpetual royalty-free license to the Playtex trademark on and in connection with the sale of apparel in the
United States and Canada. In Europe, we license the Playtex and Wonderbra trademarks to the DIM Brands International Group
for the sale of innerwear products in the European Union, the United Kingdom and a number of European countries. The DIM
Brands International Group also has the right to distribute Maidenform-branded innerwear products in the European Union, the
United Kingdom, and several other European countries. Outside the United States and Canada, we own the Playtex trademark
and perpetually license such trademark to an unaffiliated third party for non-apparel products. We own the Berlei trademark in
Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and a limited number of smaller jurisdictions. Apart from these jurisdictions, the Berlei
trademark is owned by an unaffiliated third party in most major markets, including Japan, China, the United States and the
European Union. Our trademarks are important to our marketing efforts and have substantial value.
We aggressively protect these trademarks from infringement and dilution through appropriate measures, including court
actions and administrative proceedings. Although the laws vary by jurisdiction, trademarks generally remain valid as long as
7
Part I
they are in use and/or their registrations are properly maintained. Most of the trademarks in our portfolio, including our core
brands, are covered by trademark registrations in the countries of the world in which we do business, in addition to many other
jurisdictions around the world, with a registration period of 10 years in most countries. Generally, trademark registrations can
be renewed indefinitely as long as the trademarks are in use. We have an active program designed to ensure that our trademarks
are registered, renewed, protected and maintained. We plan to continue to use all of our core trademarks and plan to renew the
registrations for such trademarks as needed.
We also own a number of copyrights. Most of our copyrights are unregistered, although we have a sizable portfolio of
copyrighted lace designs that are the subject of a number of registrations at the United States Copyright Office.
We place high importance on product innovation and design, and a number of these innovations and designs are the
subject of patents. When appropriate, we take the necessary steps to enforce our patent rights against infringement. However,
we do not regard any segment of our business as being dependent upon any single patent or group of related patents. In
addition, we own proprietary trade secrets, technology and know-how that we have not patented.
Governmental Regulation and Environmental Matters
We are subject to federal, state and local laws and regulations in the United States that could affect our business, including
those promulgated under the Occupational Safety and Health Act, the Consumer Product Safety Act, the Flammable Fabrics
Act, the Textile Fiber Product Identification Act, the rules and regulations of the Consumer Products Safety Commission and
various environmental laws and regulations. Some of our international businesses are subject to similar laws and regulations in
the countries in which they operate. Certain of our products are required to be manufactured in compliance with applicable
governmental standards. Our operations also are subject to various international trade agreements and regulations. While we
believe that we are in compliance in all material respects with all applicable governmental regulations, current governmental
regulations may change or become more stringent or unforeseen events may occur, any of which could have a material adverse
effect on our financial position or results of operations.
We are also subject to various domestic and international laws and regulations relating to generating emissions, water
discharges, waste, product and packaging content and workplace safety. Noncompliance with these laws and regulations may
result in substantial monetary penalties and criminal sanctions. We are aware of hazardous substances or petroleum releases at
certain of our facilities and are working with the relevant environmental authorities to investigate and address such releases. We
also have been identified as a “potentially responsible party” at certain waste disposal sites in the United States undergoing
investigation and cleanup under the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act
(commonly known as Superfund) or state Superfund equivalent programs. Where we have determined that a liability has been
incurred and the amount of the loss can reasonably be estimated, we have accrued amounts on our balance sheet for losses
related to these sites. Compliance with environmental laws and regulations and our remedial environmental obligations
historically have not had a material impact on our operations, and we are not aware of any proposed regulations or remedial
obligations that could trigger significant costs or capital expenditures in connection with such compliance.
Compliance with government regulations, including environmental regulations, has not had, and based on current
information and the applicable laws and regulations currently in effect, is not expected to have a material effect on our capital
expenditures (including expenditures for environmental control facilities), earnings or competitive position. However, laws and
regulations may be changed, accelerated or adopted that impose significant operational restrictions and compliance
requirements upon our Company and which could negatively impact our operating results. See Item 1A - “Risk Factors.”
Sustainability
Unlike most apparel companies, we primarily self-manufacture our own products in facilities that we own and operate or
those of our dedicated third-party contractors. Owning the majority of our supply chain not only impacts cost, scale and
flexibility, but also allows us to adhere to best-in-class management and environmental practices. We are protective of our
strong reputation for corporate citizenship and social responsibility and proud of our significant achievements in the areas of
environmental stewardship, workplace quality and community building.
Issues such as climate change, water stress and unethical labor or human rights practices within supply chains pose risks
to our business and our ability to produce our products in an ethical and sustainable manner. We assess and evaluate these risks
annually as part of our Enterprise Risk Management process, which is overseen by the Audit Committee of our Board of
Directors. We also have a dedicated team responsible for managing our global sustainability program. Our Chief Executive
Officer is responsible for setting overall business strategy, including our commitment to sustainability. He directly oversees our
Sustainability Executive Steering Committee which has ultimate management oversight of our global sustainability program
and meets quarterly to assess the program’s effectiveness. To drive the program across our entire organization on a global basis,
we have also put in place a Global Sustainability Consortium made up of over 45 associates from multiple countries and
functional areas who are responsible for executing our global sustainability initiatives and goals.
8
Part I
We approach sustainability from a broad, holistic perspective and focus our efforts in areas addressed by the United
Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals, such as: good health and well-being; quality education; gender equality; climate
action; clean water and sanitation; affordable and clean energy; economic growth; reduced inequalities; and responsible
consumption and production. In late 2020, we continued our commitment to making the world a more comfortable, livable and
inclusive place by establishing new, wide-ranging 2025/2030 global sustainability goals and launching a new sustainability
website www.HBISustains.com. This website is designed to increase our transparency and reporting on key metrics and will be
updated yearly to track progress against our long-term goals. Key highlights of our 2030 global sustainability goals include:
•
•
•
People: By 2030, improve the lives of at least 10 million people through health and wellness programs, diversity and
inclusion initiatives, improved workplace quality, and philanthropic efforts that improve local communities.
Planet: By 2030, significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions to align with science-based targets, reduce water use
by 25%, use 100% renewable electricity in company-owned operations, and bring landfill waste to zero.
Product: At an even quicker pace, eliminate all single-use plastics (or ensure that those not eliminated are commonly
recyclable or compostable) and reduce packaging weight by 25%, while also moving to 100% recycled or
degradable polyester and sustainably sourced cotton.
We have made excellent progress against these goals, and these efforts build upon our long-standing commitment to
sustainability. Hanesbrands earned a peer-leading A- score in both the 2022 CDP Climate Change Report and the 2022 CDP
Water Security Report, placing us in the top 11% and top 12%, respectively, out of the nearly 15,000 companies rated. We have
received either the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Energy Star Sustained Excellence Award or Partner of the Year
Award for 13 consecutive years. In late 2021, we submitted new science-based greenhouse gas goals to the Science-Based
Targets Initiative which call for an additional 50% reduction in direct emissions and 30% reduction in indirect emissions by
2030. We are also members of the Fair Labor Association, and the Sustainable Apparel Coalition and we have been recognized
for our socially responsible business practices by such organizations as social compliance rating group , Baptist World Aid, the
United Way, Codespa, Corporate Responsibility magazine and others.
Human Capital Management
Employees and Labor Relations
As of December 31, 2022, we had approximately 51,000 employees, over 88% of whom (approximately 45,000
employees) are located outside the United States. Over 80% of our employees (approximately 41,000 employees) are employed
in our large-scale supply chain facilities located primarily in Central America, the Caribbean Basin and Asia. Approximately
98% of our employees (approximately 50,000 employees) consist of full-time employees. As of December 31, 2022, five
employees in the United States were covered by collective bargaining agreements. A significant portion of our employees based
in foreign countries are represented by works councils or unions or are subject to trade-sponsored or governmental agreements.
We believe our relationships with our employees are good.
Health and Safety
We prioritize the health and safety of our employees. We have created and implemented processes and training programs
to maintain safe and healthy work environments in our offices, manufacturing facilities, distribution centers and retail stores,
and we review and monitor our performance closely. During the year ended December 31, 2022, our Occupational Safety and
Health Administration ("OSHA") recordable rate was 0.27, a decrease of 10% compared to the prior year. In response to the
COVID-19 global pandemic, we continued our enhanced health and safety operating procedures by, among other things:
•
•
Providing additional sanitation and enhanced ventilation;
Requiring mandatory mask and face shield usage for certain roles and responsibilities;
• Maintaining social distancing measures;
•
•
•
•
•
Utilizing protective barriers, such as sneeze guards;
Limiting building occupancy and staggering work schedules;
Zoning employees to segregate work teams;
Requiring daily digital health self-assessments; and
Rigorous contact tracing, testing and quarantining of employees when needed.
In addition, we provided enhanced employee benefits to our global workforce to ensure access to care, including onsite
wellness clinics, free COVID-19 testing and mental health resources.
9
Part I
Diversity and Inclusion
As a global company operating in 32 countries on six continents, our employees represent different backgrounds,
ethnicities, cultures, religions, genders, sexual orientations and ages. We believe these different perspectives strengthen our
business and we strive to build an inclusive culture. As of December 31, 2022, our global workforce was approximately 32%
male and 68% female, and of our domestic workforce, our employees were approximately 55% white, approximately 22%
Black or African American, approximately 16% Hispanic, approximately 4% Asian, approximately 1% American Indian or
Alaskan Native and approximately 2% two or more races or other. We believe we have made significant progress in diversity
and inclusion, but we are committed to doing more. In 2021, we launched aggressive diversity goals which we strive to attain
by 2025, including i) aiming for at least 25% representation of people of color, and ii) maintaining 50% women, at each case at
the senior manager and above levels within our U.S. workforce. As of December 31, 2022, our representation of people of color
at the senior manager and above levels within our U.S. workforce was approximately 19% (as compared to 16% in 2021), and
representation of women at the senior manager and above levels within our U.S. workforce was approximately 50% (as
compared to 49% in 2021).
Talent Development
Our talent strategy is focused on attracting the best talent, recognizing and rewarding their performance, and continually
developing, engaging and retaining them. We regularly review succession plans and conduct annual assessments to identify
talent needs, assess how we are positioned from a talent perspective, and prioritize actions to identify and develop talent. We
also cultivate a learning environment that drives individual and business results by developing employees to reach their full
potential. HBI University, our global learning platform, provides employees with access to thousands of e-learning courses, as
well as instructor-led and virtual courses to strengthen technical skills, leadership, productivity, business acumen and soft skills.
During 2022, over 80,000 micro-learning and other online courses were completed globally and over 1,000 people attended in-
person or virtual learning sessions in the United States. In addition, world-class management and leadership development
programs in our large manufacturing hubs in Central America, the Caribbean Basin and Asia provide the foundational skills
required for key talent and rising managers in our global supply chain and develop capacities for current and future leaders of
the organization.
Culture and Engagement
In order to achieve our human capital objectives, we regularly conduct employee surveys to understand the effectiveness
of our employee and compensation programs and where we can improve across our company. Our latest survey completed in
2020 had a participation rate of 59% of the 9,500 employees surveyed (which is nearly double the benchmark participation
rate). The survey results indicated that we excel in areas including: overall engagement, clear expectations and a link between
individuals’ work and Hanesbrands’ goals and objectives, and understanding strategic goals of the organization. We are
launching our 2023 employee survey shortly and look forward to the results of that survey.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
This section describes circumstances or events that could have a negative effect on our financial results or operations or
that could change, for the worse, existing trends in our businesses. The occurrence of one or more of the circumstances or
events described below could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows or
on the trading price of our common stock. The risks and uncertainties described in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the
only ones facing us. Additional risks and uncertainties that currently are not known to us or that we currently believe are
immaterial also may adversely affect our businesses and operations.
Strategic Risks
Our future success depends in part on our ability to successfully implement our strategic plan and achieve our global
business strategies, including our Full Potential plan.
We are implementing a significant number of strategic initiatives focused on building a consumer-centric company,
accelerating growth across business segments, enhancing our capabilities and strengthening the foundation of our company.
There can be no assurance that these or other future strategic initiatives will be successful to the extent we expect, or at all.
Furthermore, we are investing significant resources in these initiatives and the costs of the initiatives may outweigh their
benefits. We cannot assure you that our management will be able to manage these initiatives effectively or implement them
successfully. If we miscalculate the resources or time we need to complete these strategic initiatives or fail to implement them
effectively, our business and operating results could be adversely affected.
10
Part I
We operate in a highly competitive and rapidly evolving market, and our market share and results of operations could be
adversely affected if we fail to compete effectively in the future.
The basic apparel market is highly competitive and rapidly evolving. Competition generally is based upon brand, comfort,
fit, style and price. Our businesses face competition today from other large domestic and foreign corporations and
manufacturers, as well as mass merchant retailers, department stores and other retailers, including many of our customers, that
market and sell basic apparel products under private labels that compete directly with our brands. Also, online retail shopping is
rapidly evolving, and we expect competition in the e-commerce market to intensify in the future as the Internet facilitates
competitive entry and comparison shopping. If we do not successfully develop and maintain a relevant omni-channel
experience for our customers, our businesses and results of operations could be adversely impacted. Increased competition may
result in a loss of or a reduction in shelf space and promotional support and reduced prices, in each case decreasing our cash
flows, operating margins and profitability. Our ability to identify and capitalize on retail trends, including technology, e-
commerce and other process efficiencies to gain market share and better service our customer base will, in large part, determine
our future success. If we fail to compete successfully, our market share, results of operations and financial condition will be
materially and adversely affected.
The rapidly changing retail environment could result in the loss of or material reduction in sales to certain of our
customers, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash
flows.
The retail environment is highly competitive as consumers are increasingly embracing shopping online and through
mobile commerce applications. As a result, a greater portion of total consumer expenditures with retailers is occurring online
and through mobile commerce applications. If our brick-and-mortar retail customers fail to maintain or grow their overall
market position through the integration of physical retail presence and digital retail, these customers may experience financial
difficulties including store closures, bankruptcies or liquidations. This could, in turn, create difficulty in moving our products to
market, which would increase inventories or backlog, substantially reduce our revenues, increase our credit risk and ultimately
have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
If our advertising, marketing and promotional programs are unsuccessful, or if our competitors are more effective with
their programs than we are, our sales could be negatively affected.
Ineffective marketing, advertising and promotional programs could inhibit our ability to maintain brand relevance and
could ultimately decrease sales. While we use social media, websites, mobile applications, email, print and television to
promote our products and attract customers, some of our competitors may expend more for their programs than we do, or use
different approaches than we do that prove more successful, any of which may provide them with a competitive advantage. If
our programs are not effective or require increased expenditures that are not offset by increased sales, our revenue and results of
operations could be negatively impacted.
Our customers may require products on an exclusive basis, forms of economic support and other changes that could be
harmful to our business.
Customers increasingly may require us to provide them with some of our products on an exclusive basis, which could
cause an increase in the number of stock keeping units, or “SKUs,” we must carry and, consequently, increase our inventory
levels and working capital requirements. Moreover, our customers may increasingly seek markdown allowances, incentives and
other forms of economic support, which reduce our gross margins and affect our profitability. Our financial performance is
negatively affected by these pricing pressures when we are forced to reduce our prices without being able to correspondingly
reduce our production costs.
Operational Risks
Any inadequacy, interruption, integration failure or security breach with respect to our information technology could
harm our ability to effectively operate our business and have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations,
financial condition and cash flows.
Our ability to effectively manage and operate our business depends significantly on information technology systems. The
failure of these systems to operate effectively and support global growth and expansion, problems with integrating various data
sources, challenges in transitioning to upgraded or replacement systems, difficulty in integrating new systems or systems of
acquired businesses, or a breach in security of these systems could adversely impact the operations of our business.
Despite our policies, procedures and programs designed to ensure the integrity of our information technology systems, we
may not be effective in identifying and mitigating every risk to which we are exposed. Furthermore, from time to time we rely
on information technology systems which may be managed, hosted, provided and/or accessed by third parties or their vendors
11
Part I
to assist in conducting our business. Such relationships and access may create difficulties in anticipating and implementing
adequate preventative measures or fully mitigating harms after a breach.
Hackers and data thieves are increasingly sophisticated and operate large-scale and complex attacks that may include
computer viruses or other malicious codes, ransomware, unauthorized access attempts, denial of service attacks and large-scale
automated attacks, phishing, social engineering, hacking and other cyber-attacks. Breaches of our network or databases, or
those of our third-party providers, may result in the loss of valuable business data, misappropriation of our consumers’ or
employees’ personal information, or a disruption of our business, which could give rise to unwanted media attention, impair our
ability to order materials, make and ship orders, and process payments, materially damage our customer relationships and
reputation, and result in lost sales, fines or lawsuits.
Moreover, there are numerous laws and regulations regarding privacy and the storage, sharing, use, processing, transfer,
disclosure and protection of personal data, the scope of which is changing, subject to differing interpretations, and may be
inconsistent between states within a country or between countries. Globally, new and emerging laws, such as the General Data
Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) and the Network and Information Systems Directive (“NISD”) in Europe, the United
Kingdom General Data Protection Regulation (“UK-GDPR”) in the United Kingdom, state laws in the U.S. on privacy, data
and related technologies, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act and amendments from the California Privacy Rights Act
(together, “CPRA”) create new compliance obligations and expand the scope of potential liability, either jointly or severally
with our customers and suppliers. Non-compliance with these laws could result in penalties or significant legal liability.
Although we take reasonable efforts to comply with all applicable laws and regulations, there can be no assurance that we will
not be subject to regulatory action, including fines, in the event of a data security incident or allegations of a privacy or data
protection violation. We or our third-party service providers could be adversely affected if legislation or regulations are
expanded to require changes in our or our third-party service providers’ business practices or if governing jurisdictions interpret
or implement their legislation or regulations in ways that negatively affect our or our third-party service providers’ business,
results of operations or financial condition. Misuse of or failure to secure personal information could also result in violation of
data privacy laws and regulations, proceedings, and potentially significant monetary penalties, against us by governmental
entities or others, damage to our reputation and credibility, and could have a negative impact on revenues and profits.
We must successfully implement our new global enterprise resource planning system and maintain and upgrade our IT
systems, and our failure to do so could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of
operations.
From time to time, we expand and improve our IT systems to support our business going forward. Consequently, we are
in the process of implementing, and will continue to invest in and implement, modifications and upgrades to our IT systems and
procedures, including making changes to legacy systems or acquiring new systems with new functionality, and building new
policies, procedures, training programs and monitoring tools.
We are engaged in the implementation of a new global enterprise resource planning system (“ERP”), which requires
significant investment of human and financial resources. The ERP is designed to efficiently maintain our financial records and
provide information important to the operation of our business to our management team. In implementing the ERP, we may
experience significant increases to inherent costs and risks associated with changing and acquiring these systems, policies,
procedures and monitoring tools, including capital expenditures, additional operating expenses, demands on management time
and other risks and costs of delays or difficulties in transitioning to or integrating new systems policies, procedures or
monitoring tools into our current systems. Any significant disruption or deficiency in the design and implementation of the ERP
may adversely affect our ability to process orders, ship product, send invoices and track payments, fulfill contractual
obligations, maintain effective disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting or otherwise operate our
business. These implementations, modifications and upgrades may not result in productivity improvements at a level that
outweighs the costs of implementation, or at all. In addition, difficulties with implementing new technology systems, such as
ERP, delays in our timeline for planned improvements, significant system failures or our inability to successfully modify our IT
systems, policies, procedures or monitoring tools to respond to changes in our business needs in the past have caused and in the
future may cause disruptions in our business operations, increase data security risks, and may have a material adverse effect on
our business, financial condition and results of operations.
Our inability to successfully recover should we experience a disaster or other business continuity problem could cause
material financial loss, loss of human capital, regulatory actions, reputational harm, or legal liability.
We have a complex global supply chain and distribution network that supports our ability to consistently provide our
products to our customers. Should we experience a local or regional disaster or other business continuity problem, such as an
earthquake, tsunami, terrorist attack, pandemic or other natural or man-made disaster, our continued success will depend, in
part, on the safety and availability of our personnel, our office facilities, and the proper functioning of our computer,
telecommunication and other systems and operations. Climate change serves as a risk multiplier increasing both the frequency
12
Part I
and severity of natural disasters that may affect our worldwide business operations. Therefore, forecasting disruptive events and
building additional resiliency into our operations accordingly will become an increasing business imperative.
We may experience operational challenges in the event of a disaster, in particular depending upon how a local or regional
event may affect our human capital across our operations or with regard to particular aspects of our operations, such as key
executive officers or personnel in our technology group. If we cannot respond to disruptions in our operations, for example, by
finding alternative suppliers or replacing capacity at key manufacturing or distribution locations, or cannot quickly repair
damage to our information, production or supply systems, we may be late in delivering, or be unable to deliver, products to our
customers. These events could result in, among other negative impacts, reputational damage, lost sales, cancellation charges or
excessive markdowns.
Infectious disease outbreaks, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, could have a material adverse effect on our business.
Our business could be adversely affected by infectious disease outbreaks, such as the novel strain of coronavirus
commonly referred to as COVID-19. COVID-19, which emerged beginning in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2019, has spread
rapidly across the globe, including throughout all major geographies in which we operate, resulting in adverse economic
conditions and business disruptions, as well as significant volatility in global financial markets. Governments worldwide, and
most recently in China, have periodically imposed varying degrees of preventative and protective actions, such as temporary
travel bans, stay-at-home orders, and forced business closures or other operational restrictions, including reduced capacity
limits and operating hours, all in an effort to reduce the spread of the virus. Such factors, among others, have resulted in a
significant decline in retail traffic, tourism, and consumer spending on discretionary items.
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have experienced varying degrees of business disruptions and periods of
closure of our stores, distribution centers, and corporate facilities, as have our wholesale customers, licensing partners,
suppliers, and vendors. Collectively, these disruptions have had a material adverse impact on our business throughout the
pandemic, particularly during Fiscal 2020. Despite the introduction of COVID-19 vaccines, the pandemic remains highly
volatile and continues to evolve, including the emergence of variants of the virus, such as the Delta and Omicron variants,
which has and could continue to adversely affect consumer sentiment and confidence. Accordingly, we cannot predict for how
long and to what extent this crisis will continue to impact our business operations or the overall global economy. Potential
impacts to our business include, but are not limited to:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
our ability to successfully execute our long-term growth strategy;
potential declines in the level of consumer purchases of discretionary items caused by higher unemployment and
lower disposable income levels, inflationary pressures, travel and social gathering restrictions, work-from-home
arrangements, or other factors beyond our control;
the potential build-up of excess inventory as a result of store closures and/or lower consumer demand;
temporary closures or other operational restrictions of our distribution centers;
supply chain disruptions resulting from closed factories, reduced workforces, scarcity of raw materials, shipping and
loading capacity constraints, and scrutiny or embargoing of goods produced in infected areas, including any related
cost increases;
our ability to attract, retain, and manage employees in the current environment, which include remote working
arrangements;
additional costs to protect the health and safety of our employees, customers, and communities, such as more
frequent and thorough cleanings of our facilities and supplying personal protection equipment;
increased vulnerability to data security or privacy breaches as a result of a substantial portion of our corporate
employees continuing to work remotely;
our ability to access capital markets and maintain compliance with covenants associated with our existing debt
instruments, as well as the ability of our key customers, suppliers, and vendors to do the same with regard to their
own obligations; and
our ability to generate sufficient cash flows to support our operations, including repayment of our debt obligations as
they become due, as well as to return value to our shareholders in the form of dividend payments and repurchases of
our common stock.
Additional discussion related to the various risks and uncertainties described above is included elsewhere within this
"Risk Factors" section of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
13
Part I
The risks associated with climate change and other environmental impacts and increased focus by stakeholders on
corporate responsibility issues, including those associated with climate change, could negatively affect our business and
operations.
Our business is susceptible to risks associated with climate change, including through disruption to our supply chain and
the productivity of our contract manufacturing, potentially impacting the production and distribution of our products and
availability and pricing of raw materials. Large portions of our supply chain are located in Central America and the Caribbean,
where there has been a steady surge of hurricanes in recent years. Increased frequency and intensity of weather events (such as
storms and floods) due to climate change could also lead to more frequent store closures and/or lost sales as customers prioritize
basic needs.
In many countries, governmental bodies are enacting new or additional legislation and regulations to reduce or mitigate
the potential impacts of climate change. If we, our suppliers, or our contract manufacturers are required to comply with these
laws and regulations, or if we choose to take voluntary steps to reduce or mitigate our impact on climate change, we may
experience increased costs for energy, production, transportation, and raw materials, increased capital expenditures, or
increased insurance premiums and deductibles, which could adversely impact our operations. Inconsistency of legislation and
regulations among jurisdictions may also affect the costs of compliance with such laws and regulations. Any assessment of the
potential impact of future climate change legislation, regulations or industry standards, as well as any international treaties and
accords, is uncertain given the wide scope of potential regulatory change in the countries in which we operate.
There is also increased focus from our stakeholders, including consumers, employees and investors, on corporate
responsibility matters. Although we have announced our corporate sustainability strategy and 2025/2030 sustainability goals on
our sustainability website, www.HBISustains.com, there can be no assurance that our stakeholders will agree with our strategy
or that we will be successful in achieving our goals. Failure to implement our strategy or achieve our goals could damage our
reputation, causing our investors or consumers to lose confidence in our company and brands, and negatively impact our
operations. Even if we are able to achieve our 2025/2030 sustainability goals, our business will continue to remain subject to
risks associated with climate change.
The loss of one or more of our suppliers of finished goods or raw materials may interrupt our supplies and materially
harm our business.
We purchase all of the raw materials used in our self-manufactured products and our sourced finished goods from a
limited number of third-party suppliers and manufacturers. Our ability to meet our customers’ needs depends on our ability to
maintain an uninterrupted supply of raw materials and finished products from our third-party suppliers and manufacturers. Our
business, financial condition or results of operations could be adversely affected if any of our principal third-party suppliers or
manufacturers experience financial difficulties that they are not able to overcome resulting from worldwide economic
conditions, production problems, difficulties in sourcing raw materials, lack of capacity or transportation disruptions, or if for
these or other reasons they raise the prices of the raw materials or finished products we purchase from them. The magnitude of
this risk depends upon the timing of any interruptions, the materials or products that the third-party manufacturers provide and
the volume of production.
Our dependence on third parties for raw materials and finished products subjects us to the risk of supplier failure and
customer dissatisfaction with the quality of our products. Quality failures by our third-party manufacturers or changes in their
financial or business condition that affect their production could disrupt our ability to supply quality products to our customers
and thereby materially harm our business.
We rely on a relatively small number of customers for a significant portion of our sales, and the loss of or material
reduction in sales to any of our top customers could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations,
financial condition and cash flows.
In 2022, our top 10 customers accounted for approximately 45% of our total net sales. Our top customer, Walmart,
accounted for 16% of our total net sales in 2022. We expect that these customers will continue to represent a significant portion
of our net sales in the future. Moreover, our top customers are the largest market participants in our primary distribution
channels across all of our product lines. We generally do not enter into purchase agreements that obligate our customers to
purchase our products, and as a result, most of our sales are made on a purchase order basis. A decision by any of our top
customers to significantly decrease the volume of products purchased from us could substantially reduce revenues and may
have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows. In addition, if any of
our customers devote less selling space to apparel products in general or our products specifically, our sales to those customers
could be reduced even if we maintain our share of their apparel business.

Part I
Our results of operations could be materially harmed if we are unable to manage our inventory effectively and accurately
forecast demand for our products.
We are faced with the constant challenge of balancing our inventory levels with our ability to meet marketplace needs.
Factors that could affect our ability to accurately forecast demand for our products include our ability to anticipate and respond
effectively to evolving consumer preferences and trends and to translate these preferences and trends into marketable product
offerings, as well as unanticipated changes in general economic conditions or other factors, which result in cancellations of
orders or a reduction or increase in the rate of reorders placed by retailers.
Inventory reserves can result from the complexity of our supply chain, a long manufacturing process and the seasonal
nature of certain products. We sell a large number of our products to a small number of customers, and these customers
generally are not required by contract to purchase our goods. As a result, we often schedule internal production and place orders
for products with third-party manufacturers before our customers’ orders are firm. If we fail to accurately forecast consumer
demand, we may experience excess inventory levels or a shortage of product required to meet the demand. Inventory levels in
excess of consumer demand may result in inventory write-downs and the sale of excess inventory at discounted prices, which
could have an adverse effect on the image and reputation of our brands and negatively impact profitability. On the other hand, if
we underestimate demand for our products, our manufacturing facilities or third-party manufacturers may not be able to
produce products to meet consumer requirements, and this could result in delays in the shipment of products and lost revenues,
as well as damage to our reputation and relationships. These risks could have a material adverse effect on our brand image as
well as our results of operations and financial condition.
Additionally, sudden decreases in the costs for materials may result in the cost of inventory exceeding the cost of new
production; if this occurs, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition or
cash flows, particularly if we hold a large amount of excess inventory. Excess inventory charges can reduce gross margins or
result in operating losses, lowered plant and equipment utilization and lowered fixed operating cost absorption, all of which
could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.
Our business depends on our senior management team and other key personnel.
Our success depends upon the continued contributions of our senior management team and other key personnel, some of
whom have unique talents and experience that would be difficult to replace. The loss or interruption of the services of a member
of our senior management team or other key personnel could have a material adverse effect on our business during the
transitional period that would be required for a successor to assume the responsibilities of the position. Our future success will
also depend on our ability to develop and/or recruit employees with the core competencies needed to support our growth in
global markets and in new products or services. We may not be able to attract or retain these employees, which could adversely
affect our business.
We had approximately 51,000 employees worldwide as of December 31, 2022, and our business operations and financial
performance could be adversely affected by changes in our relationship with our employees or changes to United States or
foreign employment regulations.
We had approximately 51,000 employees worldwide as of December 31, 2022, approximately 45,000 of whom were
outside of the United States. This means we have a significant exposure to changes in domestic and foreign laws governing our
relationships with our employees, including wage and hour laws and regulations, fair labor standards, minimum wage
requirements, overtime pay, unemployment tax rates, workers’ compensation rates, citizenship requirements and payroll taxes,
which likely would have a direct impact on our operating costs. A significant increase in minimum wage or overtime rates in
countries where we have employees could have a significant impact on our operating costs and may require that we relocate
those operations or take other steps to mitigate such increases, all of which may cause us to incur additional costs, expend
resources responding to such increases and lower our margins.
In addition, a significant number of our international employees are represented by works councils or unions or are subject
to trade sponsored or governmental agreements. If there were a significant increase in the number of our employees who are
members of labor organizations or become parties to collective bargaining agreements, we would become vulnerable to a strike,
work stoppage or other labor action by these employees that could have an adverse effect on our business.
15
Part I
Financial Risks
Significant fluctuations and volatility in the price of various input costs, such as cotton and oil-related materials, utilities,
freight and wages, may have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash
flows.
Inflation can have a long-term impact on us because increasing costs of materials and labor may impact our ability to
maintain satisfactory margins. For example, we have recently experienced significant inflation in labor, materials and shipping
costs. The cost of the materials that are used in our manufacturing process, such as oil-related commodities and other raw
materials, including cotton, dyes and chemicals, and other costs, such as fuel, energy and utility costs, can fluctuate as a result
of inflation and other factors. Similarly, a significant portion of our products are manufactured in other countries and declines in
the value of the U.S. dollar may result in higher manufacturing costs. In addition, sudden decreases in the costs for materials
may result in the cost of inventory exceeding the cost of new production, which could result in lower profitability, particularly
if these decreases result in downward price pressure. If, in the future we incur volatility in the costs for materials and labor that
we are unable to offset through price adjustments or improved efficiencies, or if our competitors’ unwillingness to follow our
price changes results in downward price pressure, our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows may be
adversely affected.
Our business depends on consumer purchases of discretionary items, which can be negatively impacted during an
economic downturn or periods of inflation. This could materially impact our sales, profitability and financial condition.
Many of our products may be considered discretionary items for consumers. Many factors impact discretionary spending,
including general economic conditions, unemployment, the availability of consumer credit and inflationary pressures and
consumer confidence in future economic conditions. Global economic conditions may continue to be uncertain, particularly in
light of the impacts of COVID-19, the ongoing military conflict in Ukraine, and other economic uncertainty, and the potential
impacts of increasing inflation in the United States (our largest market) remain unknown, making trends in consumer
discretionary spending unpredictable. Historically, consumer purchases of discretionary items tend to decline during
recessionary periods when disposable income is lower or during other periods of economic instability or uncertainty, which
may lead to declines in sales and slow our long-term growth expectations. Any near or long-term economic disruptions in
markets where we sell our products, particularly in the United States, Asia Pacific or other key markets, may negatively impact
and materially harm our sales, profitability and financial condition and our prospects for growth. In addition, we are unable to
predict whether consumer preferences for discretionary items will shift and the level of consumer spending within our industry
will be negatively impacted for a period of time as a result of any ongoing impacts of COVID-19, the ongoing military conflict
in Ukraine and other economic uncertainty. If this were to occur, our sales and prospects for growth may be negatively
impacted.
We are subject to certain risks as a result of our indebtedness.
Our indebtedness primarily includes (i) our senior secured credit facility (the “Senior Secured Credit Facility”), which
includes a $1 billion revolving loan facility (the “Revolving Loan Facility”), a portion of which is available to be borrowed in
Euros or Australian dollars, and a $1 billion term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”), (ii) our $900 million 4.625% Senior
Notes due 2024 (the “4.625% Senior Notes”), (iii) our $900 million 4.875% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “4.875% Senior
Notes”), (iv) our €500 million 3.5% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “3.5% Senior Notes”, and together with the 4.625% Senior
Notes and the 4.875% Senior Notes, the “Senior Notes”) and (v) our accounts receivable securitization facility (the “ARS
Facility”), which permits borrowings up to $225 million.
The Senior Secured Credit Facility contains restrictions that affect, and in some cases significantly limit or prohibit,
among other things, our ability to borrow funds, pay dividends or make other distributions, make investments, engage in
transactions with affiliates, or create liens on our assets. Covenants in the Senior Secured Credit Facility and the ARS Facility
require us to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio and a maximum total debt to EBITDA (earnings before interest,
income taxes, depreciation expense and amortization), or leverage ratio. At our option, we may add one or more tranches of
term loans or increase the commitments under the Revolving Loan Facility so long as certain conditions are satisfied, including,
among others, that no default or event of default is in existence, we are in pro forma compliance with the financial covenants set
forth in the Senior Secured Credit Facility and (with respect to ratio-based incremental amount) our senior secured leverage
ratio is not greater than 3.50 to 1.00 on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the incurrence of such indebtedness. In addition,
in November 2022 and in February 2023, the Company entered into amendments to the Senior Secured Credit Facility that
effect changes to certain provisions and covenants under the Senior Secured Credit Facility during the period beginning with
the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2022 and continuing through the fiscal quarter ending March 30, 2024, or such earlier
date as we may elect (such period of time, the “Covenant Relief Period”), including: (a) an increase in the maximum
consolidated net total leverage ratio to 5.25 to 1.00 for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, 6.75 to 1.00 for the quarter ending
April 1, 2023, 7.25 to 1.00 for the quarter ending July 1, 2023, 6.75 to 1.00 for the quarter ending September 30, 2023, 5.25 to
16
Part I
1.00 for the quarter ending December 30, 2023, and 5.00 to 1.00 for the quarter ending March 30, 2024, and reverting back to
4.50 to 1.00 for each quarter after the Covenant Relief Period has ended; (b) a reduction of the minimum interest coverage ratio
from 3.00 to 1.00 to 2.60 to 1.00 for the quarter ended December 31, 2022 and the quarter ending April 1, 2023, 2.00 to 1.00 for
the quarters ending July 1, 2023, September 30, 2023 and December 30, 2023, and 2.50 to 1.00 for the quarter ending March
30, 2024, with an increase to 2.75 to 1.00 for each quarter after the Covenant Relief Period has ended; (c) suspension of
restricted payments in connection with share repurchases; (d) suspension of restricted payments pursuant to the Company's
leverage ratio-based and "Available Amount" restricted payments baskets, (e) a cap on annual dividend payments of $75
million, which will revert back to the greater of (x) $350 million and (y) 8.0% of Total Tangible Assets after the Covenant
Relief Period has ended; (f) suspension of the Company’s “Available Amount” basket for investments in foreign subsidiaries
and other investments; (g) suspension of the 0.50 to 1.00 increase in the maximum permitted consolidated net total leverage
ratio resulting from a material permitted acquisition; and (h) the addition of two new tiers to the top of the pricing grid if the
maximum consolidated net total leverage ratio exceeds 5.00 to 1.00 and 5.50 to 1.00. In conjunction with the Second
Amendment, we transitioned the Senior Secured Credit Facility from the London Interbank Offered Rate to the Secured
Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) with a 10 basis points credit spread adjustment already included in the Senior Secured
Credit Facility. In addition, the Third Amendment limits the Company's ability to incur incremental secured indebtedness
during the Covenant Relief Period to $1.75 billion, subject to compliance with the financial covenants.
The indentures governing the Senior Notes also restrict our ability to incur additional secured indebtedness in an amount
that exceeds the greater of (a) $3.0 billion or (b) the amount that would cause our consolidated secured net debt ratio to exceed
3.25 to 1.00, as well as certain other customary covenants and restrictions.
These restrictions and covenants could limit our ability to obtain additional capital in the future to fund capital
expenditures or acquisitions, meet our debt payment obligations and capital commitments, fund any operating losses or future
development of our business affiliates, obtain lower borrowing costs that are available from secured lenders or engage in
advantageous transactions that monetize our assets or conduct other necessary or prudent corporate activities. Any failure to
comply with these covenants and restrictions could result in an event of default that accelerates the maturity of our indebtedness
and increases the interest rate on the outstanding principal amount under such facilities, resulting in an adverse effect on our
business.
The lenders under the Senior Secured Credit Facility have received a pledge of substantially all of our existing and future
direct and indirect U.S. subsidiaries and certain foreign subsidiaries, with certain customary or agreed-upon exceptions for
certain subsidiaries. Additionally, these lenders generally have a lien on substantially all of our assets and the assets of our U.S.
subsidiaries and certain other foreign subsidiaries, with certain exceptions. The financial institutions that are party to the ARS
Facility have a lien on certain of our domestic accounts receivable. As a result of these pledges and liens, if we fail to meet our
payment or other obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facility, the lenders under that facility will be entitled to foreclose
on substantially all of our assets and, at their option, liquidate these assets, and if we fail to meet our repayment or other
obligations under the ARS Facility, the secured parties under that facility will be entitled to take control of our accounts
receivable pledged to them and all collections on those receivables, and direct our obligors to make payment on such
receivables directly to the secured parties, which in each case would adversely impact the operations of our business.
Borrowings under our Senior Secured Credit Facility bear interest at a variable rate based on, at our option, either the
SOFR or an alternative base rate (both as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facility), or the appropriate benchmark for non-
U.S. dollar borrowings, plus, in each case, an applicable margin.
Inability to access sufficient capital at reasonable rates or commercially reasonable terms or maintain sufficient liquidity
in the amounts and at the times needed could adversely impact our business.
We rely on our cash flows generated from operations and the borrowing capacity under our Revolving Loan Facility and
other external debt financings to meet the cash requirements of our business. We have significant capital requirements and will
need continued access to debt capital from outside sources in order to efficiently fund the cash flow needs of our business and
pursue strategic acquisitions.
Although we currently have available credit facilities to fund our current operating needs, we cannot be certain that we
will be able to replace our existing credit facilities or refinance our existing or future debt at a reasonable cost when necessary.
The ability to have continued access to reasonably priced credit is dependent upon our current and future capital structure,
financial performance, our credit ratings and general economic conditions. If we are unable to access the capital markets at a
reasonable economic cost, it could have an adverse effect on our results of operations or financial condition.
17
Part I
Due to the extensive nature of our foreign operations, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates could negatively
impact our results of operations.
A significant percentage of our total revenues (approximately 31% in 2022) is derived from markets outside the United
States. We sell a majority of our products in transactions denominated in U.S. dollars; however, we purchase many of our raw
materials, pay a portion of our wages and make other payments to participants in our supply chain in foreign currencies. As a
result, when the U.S. dollar weakens against any of these currencies, our cost of sales could increase substantially. Outside the
United States, we may pay for materials or finished products in U.S. dollars, and in some cases a strengthening of the U.S.
dollar could effectively increase our costs where we use foreign currency to purchase the U.S. dollars we need to make such
payments. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates could have an adverse impact on our financial condition, results of
operations and cash flows. We are also exposed to gains and losses resulting from the effect that fluctuations in foreign
currency exchange rates have on the reported results in our consolidated financial statements due to the translation of operating
results and financial position of our foreign subsidiaries.
We use forward foreign exchange contracts, cross-currency swap contracts and nonderivative financial instruments to
hedge material exposure to adverse changes in foreign currency exchange rates. However, no hedging strategy can completely
insulate us from foreign exchange risk.
Our balance sheet includes a significant amount of intangible assets and goodwill. A decline in the estimated fair value
of an intangible asset or of a business unit could result in an asset impairment charge, which would be recorded as a
noncash expense in our Consolidated Statements of Income.
Goodwill, trademarks and other identifiable intangible assets must be tested for impairment at least annually. The fair
value of the goodwill assigned to a business unit could decline if projected revenues or cash flows were to be lower in the future
due to effects of the global economy or other causes. If the carrying value of intangible assets or of goodwill were to exceed its
estimated fair value, the asset would be written down to its fair value, with the impairment loss recognized as a noncash charge
in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
As of December 31, 2022, we had approximately $1.1 billion of goodwill and $1.3 billion of trademarks and other
identifiable intangible assets on our balance sheet, which together represent 36% of our total assets. No impairment was
identified in 2022. Changes in the future outlook of a business unit could result in an impairment loss, which could have a
material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.
Market returns could have a negative impact on the return on plan assets for our pension, which may require significant
funding.
The plan assets of our pension plans, which had a loss of approximately 10% during 2022 and a return of approximately
8% during 2021, are invested mainly in domestic and international equities, bonds, hedge funds and real estate. We are unable
to predict the variations in asset values or the severity or duration of any disruptions in the financial markets or adverse
economic conditions in the United States, Europe and Asia. The funded status of these plans, and the related cost reflected in
our consolidated financial statements, are affected by various factors that are subject to an inherent degree of uncertainty,
particularly in the current economic environment. Under the Pension Protection Act of 2006 (the “Pension Protection Act”),
losses of asset values may necessitate increased funding of the plans in the future to meet minimum federal government
requirements. Under the Pension Protection Act funding rules, our U.S. qualified pension plans are approximately 96% funded
as of December 1, 2022. Any downward pressure on the asset values of these plans may require us to fund obligations earlier
than we had originally planned, which would increase our pension expense and have a negative impact on cash flows from
operations.
Our profitability may decline or our growth may be negatively impacted as a result of increasing pressure on pricing.
Our industry is subject to significant pricing pressure caused by many factors, including intense competition,
consolidation in the retail industry, pressure from retailers to reduce the costs of products and changes in consumer demand.
These factors may cause us to reduce our prices to retailers and consumers or engage in more promotional activity than we
anticipate, which could negatively impact our margins and cause our profitability to decline if we are unable to offset price
reductions with comparable reductions in our operating costs. Ongoing and sustained promotional activities could negatively
impact our brand image. On the other hand, if we are unwilling to engage in promotional activity on a scale similar to that of
our competitors, for instance, to protect our premium brand positioning, and unable to simultaneously offset declining
promotional activity with increased sales at premium price points, our ability to achieve short-term growth targets may be
negatively impacted, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition and the price
of our stock.
18
Part I
We may be adversely impacted by the failure to successfully execute acquisitions and divestitures and integrate acquired
operations.
From time to time, and as permitted by the requirements of the agreements governing our indebtedness, we may engage in
or seek to engage in strategic transactions such as acquisitions or divestitures. The success of any acquisition or divestiture
depends on the Company’s ability to identify opportunities that help the Company meet its strategic objectives, consummate a
transaction on favorable contractual terms, and achieve expected returns and other financial or operational benefits.
Acquisitions require us to integrate efficiently the acquired business or businesses, which involves a significant degree of
difficulty and risk, including the following:
•
integrating the operations and business cultures of the acquired businesses while carrying on the ongoing operations
of the businesses we operated prior to the acquisitions;
• managing a larger company than before consummation of the acquisitions;
•
•
•
•
•
the possibility of faulty assumptions underlying our expectations regarding the prospects of the acquired businesses;
coordinating a greater number of diverse businesses and businesses located in a greater number of geographic
locations;
attracting and retaining the necessary personnel associated with the acquisitions;
creating uniform standards, controls, procedures, policies and information systems and controlling the costs
associated with such matters; and
expectations about the performance of acquired trademarks and brands and the fair value of such trademarks and
brands.
Divestitures present unique financial and operational risks, including diverting management attention from the existing
core business, separating personnel and financial data and other systems, impairments, and adversely affecting existing business
relationships with suppliers and customers.
In addition, the process of completing any acquisitions or divestitures may be time-consuming and involve significant
costs and expenses, which may be significantly higher than what we anticipate and may not yield a benefit if the transactions
are not completed successfully, and executing these transactions may require significant time and attention from our senior
management and employees. In situations where acquisitions or divestitures are not successfully implemented or completed, or
the expected benefits of such acquisitions or divestitures are not otherwise realized, the Company’s business or financial results
could be negatively impacted.
Legal, Tax, Compliance, Reputational and Other Risks
Our operations in international markets, and our earnings in those markets, may be affected by legal, regulatory,
political and economic risks.
During 2022, net sales from our International segment were $1.9 billion, representing approximately 31% of total net
sales. In addition, a significant amount of our manufacturing and production operations are located, or our products are sourced
from, outside the United States. As a result, our business is subject to risks associated with international operations. These risks
include the burdens of complying with foreign laws and regulations, unexpected changes in tariffs, taxes or regulatory
requirements, and political unrest and corruption.
Regulatory changes could limit the countries in which we sell, produce or source our products or significantly increase the
cost of operating in or obtaining materials originating from certain countries. Restrictions imposed by such changes can have a
particular impact on our business when, after we have moved our operations to a particular location, new unfavorable
regulations are enacted in that area or favorable regulations currently in effect are changed.
Countries in which our products are manufactured or sold may from time to time impose additional new regulations, or
modify existing regulations, including:
•
•
•
•
changes in duties, taxes, tariffs and other charges on imports;
limitations on the quantity of goods which may be imported into the United States from a particular country;
requirements as to where products and/or inputs are manufactured or sourced;
creation of export licensing requirements, imposition of restrictions on export quantities or specification of
minimum export pricing and/or export prices or duties;
19
Part I
•
•
limitations on foreign owned businesses; or
government actions to cancel contracts, re-denominate the official currency, renounce or default on obligations,
renegotiate terms unilaterally or expropriate assets.
In addition, political and economic changes or volatility, geopolitical regional conflicts, terrorist activity, political unrest,
civil strife, acts of war, public corruption and other economic or political uncertainties could interrupt and negatively affect our
business operations. All of these factors could result in increased costs or decreased revenues and could materially and
adversely affect our product sales, financial condition and results of operations.
We are also subject to the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, in addition to the anti-corruption laws of the
foreign countries in which we operate. Although we implement policies and procedures designed to promote compliance with
these laws, our employees, contractors and agents, as well as those companies to which we outsource certain of our business
operations, may take actions in violation of our policies. Any such violation could result in sanctions or other penalties and have
an adverse effect on our business, reputation and operating results.
The recent imposition of tariffs and/or increase in tariffs on various products by the United States and other countries have
introduced greater uncertainty with respect to trade policies and government regulations affecting trade between the United
States and other countries. Furthermore, it is possible that other forms of trade restriction, including tariffs, quotas and customs
restrictions, will be put into place in the United States or in countries from which we source our materials or finished
products. We cannot predict whether any of the countries in which our merchandise currently is manufactured or may be
manufactured in the future will be subject to additional trade restrictions imposed by the United States or other foreign
governments, including the likelihood, type, or effect of any such restrictions. Any of these actions, if ultimately enacted, could
adversely affect our results of operations or profitability. Further, any emerging nationalist trends in specific countries could
alter the trade environment and consumer purchasing behavior which, in turn, could have a material effect on our financial
condition and results of operations.
We have a complex multinational tax structure, and changes in effective tax rates or adverse outcomes resulting from
examination of our income tax returns could impact our capital deployment strategy and adversely affect our results.
We have a complex multinational tax structure with multiple types of intercompany transactions, and our allocation of
profits and losses among us and our subsidiaries through our intercompany transfer pricing agreements is subject to review by
the Internal Revenue Service and other tax authorities. Our future effective tax rates could be adversely affected by earnings
being lower than anticipated in countries where we have lower statutory rates and higher than anticipated in countries where we
have higher statutory rates, by changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities, or by changes in tax laws,
regulations, accounting principles or interpretations thereof. We are continuously evaluating our capital allocation strategies in
an effort to maximize shareholder value, which includes maintaining appropriate debt to earnings ratios, and as a result there
may be times where we need to reevaluate our plans to permanently reinvest certain unremitted foreign earnings which may
increase or decrease our income tax expense during periods of change. In addition, we are also subject to the continuous
examination of our income tax returns and related transfer pricing documentation by various tax authorities. We regularly
assess the likelihood of adverse outcomes resulting from these examinations to determine the adequacy of our provision for
income taxes. There can be no assurance that the outcomes from these examinations will not have an adverse effect on our
operating results and financial condition. Additionally, changes in tax laws, regulations, future jurisdictional profitability of us
and our subsidiaries, and related regulatory interpretations in the countries in which we operate may impact the taxes we pay or
tax provision we record, as well as our capital deployment strategy, which could adversely affect our results of operations.
Our effective tax rate could be volatile and materially change as a result of the adoption of new tax legislation and other
factors including mix of earnings in countries with lower or higher effective tax rates.
A change in tax laws is one of many factors that impact our effective tax rate. The U.S. Congress and other government
agencies in jurisdictions where we do business have had an extended focus on issues related to the taxation of multinational
corporations. As a result, the tax laws in the U.S. and other countries in which we do business could change, and any such
changes could adversely impact our effective tax rate, financial condition and results of operations.
The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (the “OECD”), an international association of 38
countries including the United States, has proposed changes to numerous long-standing tax principles, including a global
minimum tax initiative. On December 12, 2022 the European Union member states agreed to implement the OECD’s Pillar 2
global corporate minimum tax rate of 15% on companies with revenues of at least $790 million, which would go into effect in
2024. Other countries including the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Canada and Australia are also actively considering changes
to their tax laws to adopt certain parts of the OECD’s proposals. The company will continue to monitor the developing laws.
In August 2022, the U.S. enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 (“IR Act”), which, among other things, introduces a
15% minimum tax based on adjusted financial statement income of certain large corporations with a three year average adjusted
20
Part I
financial statement income in excess of $1 billion, a 1% excise tax on the fair market stock repurchases by covered corporations
and several tax incentives to promote clean energy. The Company is continuing to evaluate the IR Act and its potential impact
on future periods, and at this time the Company does not expect the IR Act to have a material impact on its consolidated
financial statements.
Our balance sheet includes a significant amount of deferred taxes. Changes in our effective tax rate or tax liability may
adversely affect our operating results.
Significant gross deferred tax assets exist on our books and have been reduced by a valuation allowance. Deferred tax
assets relate to temporary differences (differences between the assets and liabilities in the consolidated financial statements and
the assets and liabilities in the calculation of taxable income) including net operating losses. The recognition of deferred tax
assets is reduced by a valuation allowance if it is more likely than not that the tax benefits associated with the deferred tax
assets will not be realized. Changes in existing valuation allowances and changes in effective tax rates and the assumptions and
estimates we have made in jurisdictions with no valuation allowance, as well as our ability to generate sufficient future taxable
income in certain jurisdictions, could materially affect our tax obligations or effective tax rate, which could negatively affect
our financial condition and results of operations. See Note “Income Taxes” to our consolidated financial statements included in
this Annual Report on Form 10-K regarding deferred tax assets and associated valuation allowances recorded in 2022.
Our reputation, ability to do business and results of operations could be impaired by improper conduct by any of our
employees, agents or business partners.
Our business is subject to federal, state, local and international laws, rules and regulations, such as state and local wage
and hour laws, the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the U.K. Bribery Act, the False Claims Act, the U.S. Employee
Retirement Income Security Act, the Global Data Protection Regulation, securities laws, import and export laws (including
customs regulations), unclaimed property laws and many others. We cannot provide assurance our internal controls will always
protect us from the improper conduct of our employees, agents and business partners. Any violations of law or improper
conduct could damage our reputation and, depending on the circumstances, subject us to, among other things, civil and criminal
penalties, material fines, equitable remedies (including profit disgorgement and injunctions on future conduct), securities
litigation and a general loss of investor confidence, any one of which could have a material adverse impact on our business
prospects, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and the market value of our stock.
The success of our business is tied to the strength and reputation of our brands. If the reputation of one or more of our
brands erodes significantly, it could have a material impact on our financial results.
Many of our brands have worldwide recognition, and our financial success is directly dependent on the success of our
brands. The success of a brand can suffer if our marketing plans or product initiatives do not have the desired impact on a
brand’s image or its ability to attract consumers. Our results could also be negatively impacted if one of our brands suffers
substantial harm to its reputation due to a significant product recall, product-related litigation or the sale of counterfeit products.
For example, biotechnology-derived substances, such as bisphenol A ("BPA") is listed as a hazardous chemical under
California’s Safe Water and Toxic Environment Act and we have recently been named in a lawsuit concerning the presence of
BPA in certain of our products. To that end, any additional actual or threatened legal actions against us or other companies in
our industry regarding the alleged presence of BPA or other similar substances in our products, whether or not justified, could
contribute to a perceived safety risk about our products and adversely impact sales or otherwise disrupt our business. Brand
value could diminish significantly due to a number of factors, including changing consumer attitudes regarding social issues
and consumer perception that we have acted in an irresponsible manner. The growing use of social and digital media by
consumers increases the speed and extent that information and opinions can be shared. Negative or inaccurate postings or
comments on social media or networking websites about our company, its practices or one of its brands could generate adverse
publicity that could damage the reputation of our brands.
We also license some of our important trademarks to third parties. For example, we license Champion to third parties for
athletic-oriented accessories. Although we make concerted efforts to protect our brands through quality control mechanisms and
contractual obligations imposed on our licensees, there is a risk that some licensees may not be in full compliance with those
mechanisms and obligations. If the reputation of one or more of our brands is significantly eroded, it could adversely affect our
sales, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.
21
Part I
We design, manufacture, source and sell products under trademarks that are licensed from third parties. If any licensor
takes actions related to their trademarks that would cause their brands or our company reputational harm, our business may
be adversely affected.
We design, manufacture, source and sell a number of our products under trademarks that are licensed from third parties,
such as our Polo Ralph Lauren men’s underwear. Because we do not control the brands licensed to us, our licensors could make
changes to their brands or business models that could result in a significant downturn in a brand’s business, adversely affecting
our sales and results of operations. If any licensor engages in behavior with respect to the licensed marks that would cause us
reputational harm, or if any of the brands licensed to us violates the trademark rights of another or are deemed to be invalid or
unenforceable, we could experience a significant downturn in that brand’s business, adversely affecting our sales and results of
operations, and we may be required to expend significant amounts on public relations, advertising and, possibly, legal fees.
If we are unable to protect our intellectual property rights, our business may be adversely affected.
Our trademarks are important to our marketing efforts and have substantial value. We aggressively protect these
trademarks from infringement and dilution through appropriate measures, including court actions and administrative
proceedings. We are susceptible to others imitating our products and infringing our intellectual property rights. Infringement or
counterfeiting of our products could diminish the value of our brands or otherwise adversely affect our business. Actions we
have taken to establish and protect our intellectual property rights may not be adequate to prevent imitation of our products by
others or to prevent others from seeking to invalidate our trademarks or block sales of our products as a violation of the
trademarks and intellectual property rights of others. In addition, unilateral actions in the United States or other countries, such
as changes to or the repeal of laws recognizing trademark or other intellectual property rights, could have an impact on our
ability to enforce those rights.
The value of our intellectual property could diminish if others assert rights in, or ownership of, our trademarks and other
intellectual property rights. We may be unable to successfully resolve these types of conflicts to our satisfaction. In some cases,
there may be trademark owners who have prior rights to our trademarks because the laws of certain foreign countries may not
protect intellectual property rights to the same extent as do the laws of the United States. In other cases, there may be holders
who have prior rights to similar trademarks. We are from time to time involved in opposition and cancellation proceedings with
respect to some items of our intellectual property.
We may suffer negative publicity if we or our third-party manufacturers violate labor laws or engage in practices that are
viewed as unethical or illegal, which could cause a loss of business.
We cannot fully control the business and labor practices of our third-party manufacturers, the majority of whom are
located in Asia, Central America and the Caribbean Basin. If one of our own manufacturing operations or one of our third-party
manufacturers violates or is accused of violating local or international labor laws or other applicable regulations, or engages in
labor or other practices that would be viewed in any market in which our products are sold as unethical, we could suffer
negative publicity, which could tarnish our brands’ image or result in a loss of sales. In addition, if such negative publicity
affected one of our customers, it could result in a loss of business for us.
Anti-takeover provisions of our charter and bylaws, as well as Maryland law, may reduce the likelihood of any potential
change of control or unsolicited acquisition proposal that you might consider favorable.
Our charter permits our Board of Directors, with the approval of a majority of the entire Board and without stockholder
approval, to amend our charter from time to time to increase or decrease the aggregate number of shares of stock or the number
of shares of stock of any class or series that we have the authority to issue. In addition, our Board of Directors may classify or
reclassify any unissued shares of common stock or preferred stock and may set the preferences, conversion or other rights,
voting powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends or other distributions, qualifications and other terms and conditions of
the classified or reclassified shares. Our Board of Directors could establish a series of preferred stock that could have the effect
of delaying, deferring or preventing a transaction or a change in control that might involve a premium price for our common
stock or otherwise be in the best interest of our stockholders. Our charter also provides that a director may be removed at any
time, but only for cause, as defined in our charter, and then only by the affirmative vote of at least two thirds of the votes
entitled to be cast generally in the election of directors. We have also elected to be subject to certain provisions of Maryland law
that provide that any and all vacancies on our Board of Directors may only be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of our
remaining directors in office, even if they do not constitute a quorum, and that any director elected to fill a vacancy shall serve
for the remainder of the full term of the directorship in which the vacancy occurred. Under Maryland law, our Board of
Directors also is permitted, without stockholder approval, to implement a classified board structure at any time.
Our bylaws provide that nominations of persons for election to our Board of Directors and the proposal of business to be
considered at a stockholders meeting may be made only in the notice of the meeting, by or at the direction of our Board of
22
Part I
Directors or by a stockholder who was a stockholder of record both at the time of giving notice by the stockholder in
accordance with the advance notice procedures of our bylaws and at the time of the annual meeting, who is entitled to vote at
the meeting and has complied with the advance notice procedures of our bylaws. Also, under Maryland law, business
combinations between us and an interested stockholder or an affiliate of an interested stockholder, including mergers,
consolidations, share exchanges or, in circumstances specified in the statute, asset transfers or issuances or reclassifications of
equity securities, are prohibited for five years after the most recent date on which the interested stockholder becomes an
interested stockholder. An interested stockholder includes any person who beneficially owns 10% or more of the then-
outstanding voting power of our stock or any affiliate or associate of ours who, at any time within the two-year period prior to
the date in question, was the beneficial owner of 10% or more of the then-outstanding voting power of our stock. A person is
not an interested stockholder under the statute if our Board of Directors approved in advance the transaction by which he
otherwise would have become an interested stockholder. However, in approving a transaction, our Board of Directors may
provide that its approval is subject to compliance, at or after the time of approval, with any terms and conditions determined by
our Board. After the five-year prohibition, any business combination between us and an interested stockholder generally must
be recommended by our Board of Directors and approved by two supermajority votes or our common stockholders must receive
a minimum price, as defined under Maryland law, for their shares. The statute permits various other exemptions from its
provisions.
These and other provisions of Maryland law or our charter and bylaws could have the effect of delaying, deferring or
preventing a transaction or a change in control that might involve a premium price for our common stock or otherwise be
considered favorably by our stockholders.
Our bylaws designate the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Maryland as the sole and exclusive forum for certain actions,
including derivative actions, which could limit a stockholder’s ability to bring a claim in a judicial forum that it finds
favorable for disputes with the Company and its directors, officers, other employees, or the Company's stockholders and may
discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims.
Unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, our bylaws provide that the sole and exclusive forum
for (a) any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Company, (b) any action asserting a claim of breach of any
duty owed by any current or former director, officer, employee, stockholder or agent of the Company to the Company or to the
stockholders of the Company, (c) any action asserting a claim against the Company or any of its current or former directors,
officers, employees, stockholders or agents arising pursuant to any provision of the Maryland General Corporate Law or the
Company’s Charter or Bylaws, or (d) any action asserting a claim against the Company or any of its current or former directors,
officers, employees, stockholders or agents that is governed by the internal affairs doctrine, shall, to the fullest extent permitted
by law, be the Circuit Court for Baltimore City, Maryland (or, if that Court does not have jurisdiction, the United States District
court for the District of Maryland, Northern Division). However, Section 27 of the Exchange Act creates exclusive federal
jurisdiction over all suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or the rules and regulations
thereunder, and as such, the exclusive jurisdiction clauses set forth above would not apply to such suits. Furthermore, Section
22 of the Securities Act provides for concurrent jurisdiction for federal and state courts over all suits brought to enforce any
duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the rules and regulations thereunder, and as such, the exclusive jurisdiction
clauses set forth above would not apply to such suits.
Although we believe the exclusive forum provision benefits us by providing increased consistency in the application of
Maryland law for the specified types of actions and proceedings, this provision may limit a stockholder’s ability to bring a
claim in a judicial forum that it finds favorable for disputes with the Company and its directors, officers, or other employees
and may discourage lawsuits with respect to such claims.
General Risk Factors
There can be no assurance that we will choose to declare or be able to declare cash dividends in the future.
Our Board of Directors has recently eliminated its prior dividend policy pursuant to which we have historically paid a
cash dividend on our common stock on a quarterly basis in order to direct free cash flow toward reducing our debt. The
declaration and payment of any dividend in the future will be subject to the approval of our Board of Directors and our dividend
may thereafter be discontinued or reduced at any time. Our Board of Directors regularly evaluates our capital allocation strategy
and dividend policy, and any future determination to continue to pay dividends, and the amount of such dividends, will be at the
discretion of our Board of Directors. Our ability to pay cash dividends is also limited by restrictions or limitations on our ability
to obtain sufficient funds through dividends from subsidiaries, as well as by contractual restrictions, including the requirements
of the agreements governing our indebtedness. There can be no assurance that we will declare cash dividends in the future in
any particular amounts, or at all.
23
Part I
Economic conditions may adversely impact demand for our products, reduce access to credit and cause our customers,
suppliers and other business partners to suffer financial hardship, all of which could adversely impact our business, results
of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Although the majority of our products are replenishment in nature and tend to be purchased by consumers on a planned,
rather than on an impulse, basis, our sales are impacted by discretionary spending by consumers. Discretionary spending is
affected by many factors that are outside of our control, including, among others, general business conditions, interest rates,
inflation, consumer debt levels, the availability of consumer credit, currency exchange rates, taxation, energy prices,
unemployment trends and other matters that influence consumer confidence and spending. Reduced sales at our wholesale
customers may lead to lower retail inventory levels, reduced orders to us or order cancellations. These lower sales volumes,
along with the possibility of restrictions on access to the credit markets, may result in our customers experiencing financial
difficulties including store closures, bankruptcies or liquidations. This may result in higher credit risk relating to receivables
from our customers who are experiencing these financial difficulties. Any of these occurrences could have a material adverse
effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
In addition, economic conditions, including decreased access to credit, may result in financial difficulties leading to
restructurings, bankruptcies, liquidations and other unfavorable events for our suppliers of raw materials and finished goods,
logistics and other service providers and financial institutions which are counterparties to our credit facilities and derivatives
transactions. In addition, the inability of these third parties to overcome these difficulties may increase. If third parties on which
we rely for raw materials, finished goods or services are unable to overcome financial difficulties and provide us with the
materials and services we need, or if counterparties to our credit facilities or derivatives transactions do not perform their
obligations, our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows could be adversely affected.
We may be adversely affected by unseasonal or severe weather conditions.
Our business may be adversely affected by unseasonable or severe weather conditions. Periods of unseasonably warm
weather in the fall or winter, or periods of unseasonably cool and wet weather in the spring or summer, can negatively impact
retail traffic and consumer spending. In addition, severe weather events such as snowstorms or hurricanes typically lead to
temporarily reduced retail traffic. Any of these conditions could result in negative point-of-sale trends for our merchandise and
reduced replenishment shipments to our wholesale customers.

Properties
We own and lease properties supporting our administrative, manufacturing, distribution and direct retail activities. As of
December 31, 2022, we owned and leased properties in 28 countries, including 30 manufacturing facilities and 45 distribution
centers, as well as office facilities. The leases for these properties expire between 2023 and 2057, with the exception of some
seasonal warehouses that we lease on a month-by-month basis. As of December 31, 2022, we also operated 195 retail and direct
outlet stores in the United States and the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico and 637 retail and outlet stores internationally, most of
which are leased. We believe that our facilities, as well as equipment, are in good condition and meet our current business
needs.
We own our approximately 470,000 square-foot headquarters located in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, which houses
our various sales, marketing and corporate business functions. Research and development as well as certain product-design
functions also are located in Winston-Salem, while other design functions are located in a mix of leased and owned facilities in
New York City, Atlanta and Lenexa, Kansas, as well as several international cities.
Our products are manufactured through a combination of facilities we own and operate and facilities owned and operated
by third-party contractors who perform some of the steps in the manufacturing process for us, such as cutting and/or sewing.
We source the remainder of our finished goods from third-party manufacturers who supply us with finished products based on
our designs. Our largest manufacturing facilities include an approximately 1.1 million square-foot owned facility located in San
Juan Opico, El Salvador and an approximately 600,000 square-foot owned facility located in Bonao, Dominican Republic. We

Legal Proceedings
We are named in two pending lawsuits in connection with our previously disclosed ransomware incident. On October 7,
2022, a putative class action was filed against “Hanes Brands [sic], Inc.” alleging, among other things, negligence, negligence
per se, breach of implied contract, unjust enrichment, breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, unfair business
practices under the California Business and Professions Code, and violations of the California Confidentiality of Medical
Information Act in connection with the ransomware incident. The litigation is entitled, Roman v. Hanes Brands [sic], Inc., and
is pending in the United States District Court for the Central District of California. Plaintiff Roman also subsequently filed a
second putative class action with regard to the ransomware incident in the United States District Court for the Middle District of
North Carolina on January 16, 2023, entitled Roman v. Hanesbrands,[sic] Inc., which was voluntarily dismissed without
prejudice on January 20, 2023. On October 13, 2022, another putative class action was filed against HanesBrands Inc. alleging,
among other things, negligence, negligence per se, breach of implied contract, invasion of privacy, and unjust enrichment in
connection with the ransomware incident. The litigation is entitled, Toussaint v. HanesBrands,[sic] Inc. and is pending in the
United States District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina. The pending lawsuits seek, among other things,
monetary and injunctive relief. We are vigorously defending these matters and believe the cases are without merit. We do not
expect any of these claims, individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial
position or results of operations. However, at this early stage in the proceedings, we are not able to determine the probability of
the outcome of these matters or a range of reasonably expected losses, if any. We maintain insurance, including coverage for
cyber-attacks, subject to certain deductibles and policy limitations, in an amount that we believes appropriate.
We are also subject to various claims and legal actions that occur from time to time in the ordinary course of our business.
However, we are not party to any pending legal proceedings, including the pending lawsuits in connection with the previously
disclosed ransomware incident described above, that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of
operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Market for our Common Stock
Our common stock currently is traded on the New York Stock Exchange, or the “NYSE,” under the symbol “HBI.” We
have not made any unregistered sales of our equity securities.
Holders of Record
On February 3, 2023, there were 13,118 holders of record of our common stock.
Issuer Repurchases of Equity Securities
On February 2, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program for up to $600 million

requirements and other factors. The new program replaced the Company’s previous share repurchase program for up to
40 million shares that was originally approved on February 6, 2020. During the year ended December 31, 2022, we entered into
transactions to repurchase 2 million shares under the new share repurchase program at a weighted average repurchase price of
$15.84 per share for a total cost of $25 million (none of which were purchased in the fourth quarter of 2022). At December 31,
2022, the remaining repurchase authorization under the current share repurchase program totaled $575 million.

Performance Graph
The following graph compares the cumulative total stockholder return on our common stock with the comparable
cumulative return of the S&P 500 Index, S&P MidCap 400 Index, and the S&P 1500 Apparel, Accessories & Luxury Goods
Index. The graph assumes that $100 was invested in our common stock and each index on December 30, 2017. In December
2021, the Company was moved from the S&P 500 to the S&P MidCap 400, as a result of which, the broad equity market index
used in the Stock Performance Graph going forward is expected to be the S&P MidCap 400. The stock price performance on

Overview
Our Company
Hanesbrands Inc. is a socially responsible leading marketer of everyday basic innerwear and activewear apparel in the
Americas, Australia, Europe and Asia under some of the world’s strongest apparel brands, including Hanes, Champion, Bonds,
Maidenform, Bali, Playtex, Bras N Things, JMS/Just My Size, Gear for Sports, Wonderbra, Berlei, Comfortwash and
Alternative. We design, manufacture, source and sell a broad range of basic apparel such as T-shirts, bras, panties, shapewear,
underwear, socks and activewear produced in our low-cost global supply chain. Our brands hold either the number one or
number two market position by units sold in many of the product categories and geographies in which we compete.
Our Segments
Our operations are managed and reported in three operating segments, each of which is a reportable segment for financial
reporting purposes: Innerwear, Activewear and International. These segments are organized principally by product category and
geographic location. Each segment has its own management team that is responsible for the operations of the segment’s
businesses, but the segments share a common supply chain and media and marketing platforms. Other consists of our U.S.-
based outlet stores, U.S. Sheer Hosiery business and certain sales from our supply chain to the European Innerwear business. In
the fourth quarter of 2021, we reached the decision to divest our U.S. Sheer Hosiery business, including the L’eggs brand, as
part of our strategy to streamline our portfolio under our Full Potential plan. See Note “Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale” to
our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information.
30
Part II
The reportable segments are as follows:
•
•
•
Innerwear includes sales in the United States of basic branded apparel products that are replenishment in nature
under the product categories of men’s underwear, women’s panties, children’s underwear and socks, and intimate
apparel, which includes bras and shapewear. Innerwear also includes sales in the United States of personal protective
equipment (“PPE”) including products such as cloth face coverings and gowns in 2020.
Activewear includes sales in the United States of branded products that are primarily seasonal in nature to both
retailers and wholesalers, as well as licensed sports apparel and licensed logo apparel.
International primarily includes sales of our innerwear and activewear products, including PPE in 2020, outside the
United States, primarily in Australia, Europe, Asia, Latin America and Canada.
Impact of COVID-19 and Supply Chain Disruptions on Our Business
The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted our business operations and financial results, as described in more detail under
“Consolidated Results of Operations - Year Ended December 31, 2022 (“2022”) Compared with Year Ended January 1, 2022
(“2021”)” and “Consolidated Results of Operations - Year Ended January 1, 2022 (“2021”) Compared with Year Ended
January 2, 2021 (“2020”)” below, primarily through reduced traffic and closures of Company-operated and third-party retail
locations in certain markets, global supply chain disruptions and higher levels of inflation due to factory disruptions, port
congestion, transportation delays as well as labor and container shortages, which resulted in higher operating costs causing
pressure on our gross and operating profit in 2022. At the height of the global supply chain disruptions in 2022, we experienced
delayed inventory orders which, in turn, resulted in the inability to fulfill certain customer orders and decreased product
availability in our Company-owned stores and e-commerce sites which negatively impacted our net revenues and increased net
inventory levels. We took aggressive measures in 2022 to focus on reducing inventory units, including manufacturing time-out
costs. While total net inventory levels remain above 2021, inventory units decreased by 6% at the end of 2022 compared to
2021. We expect gross and operating margin pressure to continue in the first half of fiscal 2023 as we sell through the
remainder of our higher-cost inventory. We expect gross and operating margin pressure to ease in the second half of 2023 as
lower cost inventory currently being produced is sold and we anniversary the manufacturing time-out costs related to our
inventory reduction initiatives in 2022. The future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, supply chain disruptions and inflation
remain highly uncertain, and our business and results of operations, including our net revenues, earnings and cash flows, could
continue to be adversely impacted. See related risk factors in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in this Annual Report on Form 10-
K.
Outlook for 2023
We estimate our 2023 guidance as follows:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Net sales of approximately $6.05 billion to $6.20 billion, net of approximately $42 million of unfavorable foreign
exchange impact;
Operating profit of approximately $446 million to $496 million, net of approximately $6 million of unfavorable
foreign exchange impact;
Restructuring and other action-related charges totaling $60 million including Full Potential plan-related charges of
approximately $54 million included in operating profit and refinancing charges of $6 million included in other
expenses;
Interest expense and other expenses of approximately $306 million combined;
Tax expense from continuing operations of approximately $90 million to $100 million;
Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of approximately $0.14 to $0.25;
Cash flow from operating activities of approximately $500 million; and
Capital investments of approximately $150 million, including capital expenditures of $70 million within investing
cash flow activities and cloud computing assets of $80 million within operating cash flow activities.
Business and Industry Trends
Inflation and Changing Prices
Cotton is the primary raw material used in manufacturing many of our products. While we do not own yarn operations, we
are still exposed to fluctuations in the cost of cotton. Increases in the cost of cotton can result in higher costs in the price we pay
for yarn from our large-scale yarn suppliers and may result in the need to implement future price increases in order to maintain
31
Part II
our margins. Decreases in cotton prices can lead to lower margins for inventory and products produced from cotton we have
already purchased, particularly if there is downward price pressure as a result of consumer demand, competition or other
factors.
Our costs for cotton yarn, cotton-based textiles and cotton-based products sourced from third-party suppliers vary based
upon the fluctuating cost of cotton, which is affected by, among other factors, weather, the impacts of climate change, 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. We are able to lock in the cost of
cotton reflected in the price we pay for yarn from our primary yarn suppliers in an attempt to protect our business from the
volatility of the market price of cotton. Under our agreements with these suppliers, we have the ability to periodically fix the
cotton cost component of our yarn purchases. When we elect to fix the cotton cost component under these agreements, interim
fluctuations in the price of cotton do not impact the price we pay for the specified volume of yarn. The yarn suppliers bear the
risk of cotton fluctuations for the yarn volume specified and it is their responsibility to procure the cotton at the agreed upon
pricing through arrangements they make with their cotton suppliers. However, our business can be affected by dramatic
movements in cotton prices. The cost of cotton used in our products, which includes the cost of cotton used in goods
manufactured by us, as well as the cotton content in yarn, textiles and turnkey products we purchase from third-party suppliers,
as a percentage of our cost of sales was in the high single digits in 2022. Costs incurred today for materials and labor, including
cotton, typically do not impact our results until the inventory is sold approximately six to nine months later.
Inflation can have a long-term impact on us because increasing costs of materials and labor may impact our ability to
maintain satisfactory margins. For example, the cost of the materials that are used in our manufacturing process, such as oil-
related commodity prices and other raw materials, including cotton, dyes and chemicals, and other costs, such as fuel, energy
and utility costs, can fluctuate as a result of inflation and other factors. Disruptions to the global supply chain due to factory
closures, port congestion, container shortages, trucking capacity shortages, transportation delays and labor shortages may
negatively impact product availability, revenue growth and gross margins. We would work to mitigate the impact of the global
supply chain disruptions through a combination of cost savings and operating efficiencies, as well as pricing actions, which
could have an adverse impact on demand. Costs incurred for materials and labor are capitalized into inventory and impact our
results as the inventory is sold. In addition, a significant portion of our products are manufactured in countries other than the
United States and declines in the value of the U.S. dollar may result in higher manufacturing costs. Increases in inflation may
not be matched by growth in consumer income, which also could have a negative impact on spending.
Other Business and Industry Trends
The basic apparel market is highly competitive and rapidly evolving. Competition generally is based upon brand, comfort,
fit, style, innovation and price. The majority of our core styles continue from year to year, with variations only in color, fabric
or design details. Some products, however, such as intimate apparel and activewear, do have more of an emphasis on style. Our
businesses face competition today from other large domestic and foreign corporations and manufacturers, as well as smaller
companies, department stores, specialty stores and other retailers that market and sell basic apparel products under private
labels that compete directly with our brands.
In 2022, our top 10 customers accounted for approximately 45% of our total net sales. Our top customer, Walmart,
accounted for 16% of our total net sales in 2022. The increasing bargaining power of retailers can create pricing pressures as
our customers grow larger and seek greater concessions in their purchase of our products, while also demanding exclusivity
with respect to some of our products. To counteract these effects, it has become increasingly important to leverage our national
brands through investment in our largest and strongest brands as our customers strive to maximize their performance especially
in today’s challenging retail economic environment. Brands are important in our core categories to drive traffic and project the
quality and value our customers demand.
Consumers are increasingly embracing shopping online through e-commerce platforms. As a result, an increasing portion
of our revenue across all channels is being generated online through e-commerce platforms. We are continuing to develop and
expand our omnichannel capabilities to allow a consumer to use more than one channel when making a purchase, including in-
store, at one of our retail or outlet stores or those of our retail partners, online or with a mobile device, through one of our
branded websites, the website of one of our retail partners, or an online retailer. In addition to broadening our assortment of
product offerings across all online channels, we are also increasing the proportion of our media budget dedicated to digital
marketing.
Foreign Exchange Rates
Changes in exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and other currencies can impact our financial results in two ways; a
translation impact and a transaction impact. The translation impact refers to the impact that changes in exchange rates can have
on our published financial results. Similar to many multi-national corporations that publish financial results in U.S. dollars, our
revenue and profit earned in local foreign currencies is translated back into U.S. dollars using an average exchange rate over the
32
Part II
representative period. A period of strengthening in the U.S. dollar has a negative impact to our published financial results
(because it would take more units of a local currency to convert into a dollar). The opposite is true during a period of weakening
in the U.S. dollar. Our biggest foreign currency exposures are the Australian dollar and the Euro. We use cross-currency swap
contracts and nonderivative financial instruments to minimize material foreign currency translation exposures.
The transaction impact on financial results is common for apparel companies that source goods because these goods are
purchased in U.S. dollars. The transaction impact from a strengthening U.S. dollar would have a negative impact to our
financial results (because the U.S. dollar-based costs would convert into a higher amount of local currency units, which means a
higher local-currency cost of goods, and in turn, a lower local-currency gross profit). The transaction impact from exchange
rates is typically recovered over time with price increases. However, during periods of rapid change in exchange rates, pricing
is unable to change quickly enough; therefore, we use forward foreign exchange contracts to hedge against our sourcing costs to
minimize our exposure to fluctuating exchange rates.
Our Key Business Strategies
Our business strategy integrates our brand superiority, industry-leading innovation and low-cost global supply chain to
provide higher value products while lowering production costs. We operate in the global innerwear and global activewear
apparel categories. These are stable, heavily branded categories where we have a strong consumer franchise based on a global
portfolio of industry-leading brands that we have built over multiple decades, through hundreds of millions of direct
interactions with consumers. Our multi-year growth strategy (“Full Potential plan”) focuses on four pillars to drive growth and
enhance long-term profitability and identifies the initiatives to unlock growth. Our four pillars of growth are to grow the
Champion brand globally, drive growth in Innerwear with brands and products that appeal to younger consumers, build e-
commerce excellence across channels and streamline our global portfolio. In order to deliver this growth and create a more
efficient and productive business model, we have launched a multi-year cost savings program intended to self-fund the
investments necessary to achieve the Full Potential plan’s objectives. We remain highly confident that our strong brand
portfolio, world-class supply chain and diverse category and geographic footprint will help us unlock our full potential, deliver
long-term growth and create stockholder value.
In the first quarter of 2021, we announced that we reached the decision to exit our European Innerwear business as part of
our strategy to streamline our portfolio under our Full Potential plan and determined that this business met held-for-sale and
discontinued operations accounting criteria. Accordingly, we began to separately report the results of our European Innerwear
business as discontinued operations in our Consolidated Statements of Income, and to present the related assets and liabilities as
held for sale in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note “Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale” to our consolidated financial
statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information. On November 4, 2021, we announced that
we reached an agreement to sell this business to an affiliate of Regent, L.P., and completed the sale on March 5, 2022. Under
the agreement, the purchaser received all the assets and operating liabilities of the European Innerwear business. See Note
“Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale” to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for
additional information.
In addition, in the fourth quarter of 2021, we reached the decision to divest our U.S. Sheer Hosiery business, including the
L’eggs brand, as part of our strategy to streamline our portfolio under our Full Potential plan and determined that this business
met held-for-sale accounting criteria. The related assets and liabilities are presented as held for sale in the Consolidated Balance
Sheets at December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022. The operations of our U.S. Sheer Hosiery business are reported in “Other”
for all periods presented in Note “Business Segment Information” to our consolidated financial statements included in this
Annual Report on Form 10-K. We are currently exploring potential purchasers for this business and expect to complete the sale
within the next 12 months. See Note “Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale” to our consolidated financial statements included in
this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information.
In June of 2022, we purchased the Champion trademark for footwear in the United States, Puerto Rico and Canada from
Keds, LLC (“KEDS”) for $103 million. The trademark was recorded in “Trademarks and other identifiable intangibles, net”
line in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and has an indefinite life. We previously licensed the Champion trademark for footwear
in these locations. The purchase of the trademark was part of an agreement with KEDS settling litigation between the two
parties and is another step forward in our Full Potential plan of growing the global Champion brand.
We seek to generate strong cash flow through effectively optimizing our capital structure and managing working capital
levels. We recently shifted our capital allocation strategy to focus the use of all our free cash flow (cash from operations less
capital expenditures) on reducing debt and bringing our leverage back to a range that is no greater than two to three times on a
net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA basis. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortization excluding restructuring and other action-related costs and stock compensation expense. Net debt is defined as total
debt less cash and cash equivalents.
33
Part II
Ransomware Attack
As previously disclosed, on May 24, 2022, we identified that we had become subject to a ransomware attack and activated
our incident response and business continuity plans designed to contain the incident. As part of our forensic investigation and
assessment of the impact, we determined that certain of our information technology systems were affected by the ransomware
attack.
Upon discovering the incident, we took a series of measures to further safeguard the integrity of our information
technology systems, including working with cybersecurity experts to contain the incident and implementing business continuity
plans to restore and support continued operations. These measures also included resecuring data, remediation of the malware
across infected machines, rebuilding critical systems, global password reset and enhanced security monitoring. We notified
appropriate law enforcement authorities as well as certain data protection regulators, and in addition to our public
announcements of the incident, we provided breach notifications and regulatory filings as required by applicable law starting in
August 2022. At this time, we believe the incident has been contained, we have restored our critical information technology
systems, and manufacturing, retail and other internal operations continue. There is no ongoing operational impact on our ability
to provide our products and services. We maintain insurance, including coverage for cyber-attacks, subject to certain
deductibles and policy limitations, in an amount that we believe appropriate.
We are named in two pending lawsuits in connection with our previously disclosed ransomware incident. On October 7,
2022, a putative class action was filed against “Hanes Brands [sic], Inc.” alleging, among other things, negligence, negligence
per se, breach of implied contract, unjust enrichment, breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, unfair business
practices under the California Business and Professions Code, and violations of the California Confidentiality of Medical
Information Act in connection with the ransomware incident. The litigation is entitled, Roman v. Hanes Brands [sic], Inc., and
is pending in the United States District Court for the Central District of California. Plaintiff Roman also subsequently filed a
second putative class action with regard to the ransomware incident in the United States District Court for the Middle District of
North Carolina on January 16, 2023, entitled Roman v. Hanesbrands,[sic] Inc., which was voluntarily dismissed without
prejudice on January 20, 2023. On October 13, 2022, another putative class action was filed against HanesBrands Inc. alleging,
among other things, negligence, negligence per se, breach of implied contract, invasion of privacy, and unjust enrichment in
connection with the ransomware incident. The litigation is entitled, Toussaint v. HanesBrands,[sic] Inc. and is pending in the
United States District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina. The pending lawsuits seek, among other things,
monetary and injunctive relief. We are vigorously defending these matters and believe the cases are without merit. We do not
expect any of these claims, individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial
position or results of operations. However, at this early stage in the proceedings, we are not able to determine the probability of
the outcome of these matters or a range of reasonably expected losses, if any. We maintain insurance, including coverage for
cyber-attacks, subject to certain deductibles and policy limitations, in an amount that we believe appropriate.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, we incurred costs of approximately $15 million, net of expected insurance
recoveries, related to the ransomware attack. The costs incurred during the year ended December 31, 2022 included $14 million
related primarily to supply chain disruptions, which are reflected in the “Cost of sales” line of the Consolidated Statements of
Income and $1 million, net of expected insurance recoveries, related primarily to legal, information technology and consulting
fees, which are reflected in the “Selling, general and administrative expenses” line of the Consolidated Statements of Income.
The ransomware attack also negatively impacted our ability to order materials, make and ship orders, and process payments
during the second quarter ended July 2, 2022, resulting in estimated lost sales of approximately $100 million. We continue to
assess the security event and cannot determine, at this time, the full extent of the impact from such event on our business,
results of operations or financial condition or whether such impact will ultimately have a material adverse effect.
Financing Arrangements
In November 2022 and in February 2023, given the economic conditions and the associated impact on earnings, we
amended the credit agreement governing our Senior Secured Credit Facility to modify the financial covenants in order to avoid
a potential covenant violation and to provide operating flexibility as described in Note “Debt” to our consolidated financial
statements and “Liquidity and Capital Resources” included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. We expect to maintain
compliance with our covenants, as amended in February 2023, for at least one year from the issuance of these financial
statements based on our current expectations and forecasts, however economic conditions or the occurrence of events discussed
under “Risk Factors” in this Annual Report on Form 10-K or other SEC filings could impact our ability to maintain compliance
or require us to seek additional amendments to the credit agreement.
We intend to refinance certain of our indebtedness with upcoming maturities, including an aggregate of approximately
$1.4 billion of our 4.625% Senior Notes due in May 2024 and our 3.5% Senior Notes due in June 2024 in the first quarter of
2023. Any such refinancings will depend on market conditions and other relevant factors and there can be no assurance such
refinancings will be pursued or completed.
34
Part II
Tax Expense
For the year ended December 31, 2022, our effective tax rate was impacted as a result of a valuation allowance recorded
in 2022 against U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets. Additionally, the Company’s effective tax rate was impacted by tax
impairments in Switzerland which generated deferred tax liabilities.
We maintain intercompany transfer pricing agreements governing sales within our self-owned supply chain, which can
impact the amount of pre-tax income we recognize in foreign jurisdictions. In compliance with applicable tax laws, we
regularly review the terms of these agreements utilizing independent third-party transfer pricing studies to ensure that
intercompany pricing is consistent with what a seller would charge an independent, arm’s length customer, or what a buyer
would pay an independent, arm’s length supplier. Therefore, changes in intercompany pricing are often driven by market
conditions, which are also difficult to predict.
Future acquisitions or divestitures may affect the proportion of our pre-tax income from foreign jurisdictions, both due to
external sales and also increased volume in our self-owned supply chain. We follow a disciplined acquisition strategy focused
on acquisitions that meet strict criteria for strong likely returns with relatively low risk. It is difficult to predict whether or when
such acquisitions or divestitures will occur and whether the acquisition targets or divested operations will be foreign or
domestic. Therefore, it is also difficult to predict the effect of acquisitions or divestitures on the future distribution of our pre-
tax income.
As of December 31, 2022, we have continued to evaluate our global capital allocation strategy and assertions made with
respect to the accumulated earnings of our foreign subsidiaries. As a result of our overall and continuous evaluation, we have
not changed our assertion from prior year and we will continue to permanently reinvest a portion of our unremitted foreign
earnings. The portion of our unremitted foreign earnings as of December 31, 2022 that we intend to remit to the United States
totals approximately $269 million. We intend to use these earnings to fund capital investments and reduce debt held in the
United States. The remaining portion of our unremitted foreign earnings will continue to be permanently reinvested to fund
working capital requirements and operations abroad. As of December 31, 2022, we have accrued for income taxes of $26
million in connection with the $269 million of unremitted foreign earnings we intend to remit in the future. These income tax
effects include United States federal, state, foreign and withholding tax implications in accordance with the planned remittance
of such foreign earnings.
We regularly assess any significant exposure associated with increases in effective tax rates and adjustments are made as
events occur that warrant adjustment to our income tax provisions. See “We have a complex multinational tax structure, and
changes in effective tax rates or adverse outcomes resulting from examination of our income tax returns could impact our
capital deployment strategy and adversely affect our results.” in Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in this Annual Report on Form
10-K.

Net Sales
Net sales decreased 8% during 2022 primarily due to the following:
•
•
•
•
•
Softer point-of-sale trends and higher retailer inventory levels as a result of the macroeconomic pressures;
The impact of the ransomware attack to the business;
Global supply chain disruptions resulting in product delays;
Ongoing COVID-related pressures on consumer traffic in certain markets in Asia; and
The unfavorable impact from foreign currency exchange rates in our International business of approximately $182
million.
Partially offset by:
•
Pricing actions taken throughout 2022.
Operating Profit
Operating profit as a percentage of net sales was 8.3% in 2022, representing a decrease from 11.7% in the prior year.
Operating margin decreased as a result of lower sales volume, input cost inflation, impact from the ransomware attack, costs
associated with our manufacturing time-out inventory reduction actions, deleverage from a higher proportion of transportation
and distribution costs, unfavorable impact from foreign currency exchange rates and increased Full Potential plan-related
investments in brand marketing and technology partially offset by pricing actions and cost reduction actions. Included in
operating profit in 2022 and 2021 were charges of $60 million and $132 million, respectively, related to the implementation of
our Full Potential plan.
Other Highlights
Other Expenses – Other expenses decreased in 2022 compared to prior year primarily as a result of the refinancing of our
Senior Secured Credit Facility and the redemption of our 5.375% Senior Notes in November 2021. Redemption of our 5.375%
Senior Notes in 2021 required payment of a make-whole premium of $35 million. Additionally, the redemption of our 5.375%
Senior Notes and the refinancing of our Senior Secured Credit Facility in 2021 resulted in a charge of $11 million for the write-
off of unamortized debt issuance costs and fees incurred. See Note “Debt” to our consolidated financial statements included in
this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Other expenses also included higher funding fees for sales of accounts receivable to
financial institutions which were partially offset by lower pension expense in 2022.
Interest Expense – Interest expense was lower by $6 million in 2022 compared to the same period in 2021, primarily due
to a lower weighted average interest rate on our borrowings partially offset by higher weighted average outstanding debt
balances during 2022. Our weighted average interest rate on our outstanding debt was 3.79% for 2022, compared to 4.06% for
2021.
36
Part II
Income Tax Expense – Our effective income tax rate was 137.2% and 10.3% for 2022 and 2021, respectively. The higher
effective tax rate for 2022 was primarily due to non-cash discrete tax charges of $423 million for valuation allowances
established against U.S. deferred tax assets and tax impairments in Switzerland which generated deferred tax liabilities during
2022.
Discontinued Operations – The results of our discontinued operations include the operations of our European Innerwear
business which we reached the decision to exit at the end of the first quarter of 2021 in connection with our Full Potential plan.
On March 5, 2022, we completed the sale of the European Innerwear business. See Note “Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale”
to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information.

Innerwear net sales decreased 11% compared to prior year primarily due to softer point-of-sale trends, impacts to
replenishment orders from retailers’ decisions to reduce broader inventory positions, business disruption as a result of the
ransomware attack in the second quarter of 2022 and the overlap of last year’s sales benefits from retailer restocking and
government-stimulus spending partially offset by pricing actions taken and retail space gains in the first quarter of 2022.
Innerwear operating margin was 16.0%, a decrease from 21.1% in the same period a year ago. The operating margin
decline resulted from input cost inflation, lower sales volume, unfavorable product and channel mix, manufacturing time-out
costs associated with our inventory reduction actions and deleverage from a higher proportion of distribution costs partially
offset by pricing actions and cost reduction actions.
Activewear
Activewear net sales decreased 7% compared to prior year primarily due to softer point-of-sale trends primarily related to
the Champion brand, retailer inventory levels and business disruption as a result of the ransomware attack in the second quarter
of 2022. The net sales decrease was partially offset by growth in the collegiate and printwear channels and pricing actions
primarily taken in the third quarter of 2022.
Activewear operating margin was 9.9%, a decrease from 14.1% in the same period a year ago. The operating margin
decline resulted from higher levels of inflation, lower sales volume, deleverage from a higher proportion of distribution costs,
manufacturing time-out costs associated with our inventory reduction actions and unfavorable product mix and partially offset
by pricing actions and cost reduction actions.
37
Part II
International
Net sales in the International segment decreased 7% compared to prior year due to unfavorable foreign currency exchange
rates. The unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange rates decreased net sales approximately $182 million in 2022.
International net sales on a constant currency basis, defined as net sales excluding the impact of foreign currency, increased 1%.
The impact of foreign currency exchange rates is calculated by applying prior period exchange rates to the current year financial
results. Net sales on a constant currency basis increased as a result of Champion growth in Europe as well as innerwear growth
in Australia and the Americas. The increase in net sales was partially offset by Champion declines in certain Asian markets.
International operating margin was 14.8%, a decrease from 16.4% in the same period a year ago. The decrease in
operating margin primarily resulted from input cost inflation, which was partially offset by disciplined expense management
during 2022.
Other
Other net sales decreased primarily as a result of lower sales at our retail outlets during 2022 compared to prior year
partially offset by increased sales from our supply chain to the European Innerwear business. We have continued certain sales
from our supply chain to this business on a transitional basis after the sale in the first quarter of 2022. These sales and the
related profit are included in Other in all periods presented and have not been eliminated as intercompany transactions in
consolidation for the period when this business was owned by us. See Note “Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale” to our
consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for additional information. Operating margin
decreased due to the decrease in sales volume primarily in our retail outlets.
Corporate
Corporate expenses were lower in 2022 compared to the prior year primarily due to lower restructuring and other action-
related charges and lower variable compensation costs partially offset by increased information technology costs coupled with
expenses, net of expected insurance recoveries, related to the ransomware attack which occurred during the second quarter of
2022. During 2022, we incurred costs of approximately $15 million, net of expected insurance recoveries, related to the
ransomware attack which included $14 million related primarily to supply chain disruptions, which are reflected in the “Cost of
sales” line of the Consolidated Statements of Income and $1 million, net of expected insurance recoveries, related primarily to
legal, information technology and consulting fees, which are reflected in the “Selling, general and administrative expenses” line
of the Consolidated Statements of Income. Included in restructuring and other action-related charges within operating profit in
2022 and 2021 were $60 million and $132 million, respectively, of charges related to the implementation of our Full Potential
plan. Full Potential plan charges in 2022 included charges related to supply chain segmentation of $18 million to position our
manufacturing network to align with revenue growth opportunities of our Full Potential plan demand trends, $10 million related
to corporate headcount reductions and a non-cash gain of $4 million to adjust the valuation allowance related to the U.S. Sheer
Hosiery business resulting from a decrease in carrying value due to changes in working capital. Full Potential plan charges in
2021 included a charge of $16 million for an action to resize our U.S. corporate office workforce through a voluntary retirement
program and impairment charges of $7 million related to the full impairment of an indefinite-lived trademark related to a
38
specific brand within the European Innerwear business that was excluded from the disposal group as it was not marketed for
sale.
The components of restructuring and other action-related charges were as follows:

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Requirements and Trends and Uncertainties Affecting Liquidity
We rely on our cash flows generated from operations and the borrowing capacity under our credit facilities to meet the
cash requirements of our business. We recently shifted our capital allocation strategy to utilize our cash from operations for
payments to our employees and vendors in the normal course of business and to reinvest in our business through capital
expenditures. We then plan to utilize our free cash flow (cash from operations less capital expenditures) to pay down debt to
bring our leverage back to a range that is no greater than two to three times on a net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA basis.
Based on our current estimate of future earnings and cash flows, we believe we have sufficient cash and available
borrowings for at least one year from the issuance of these financial statements based on our current expectations and forecasts.
In November 2022 and in February 2023, given the economic conditions and the associated impact on earnings, we
amended the credit agreement governing our Senior Secured Credit Facility to modify the financial covenants in order to avoid
a potential covenant violation and to provide operating flexibility. The amendments effect changes to certain provisions and
covenants under the Senior Secured Credit Facility during the period beginning with the fiscal quarter ended December 31,
2022 and continuing through the fiscal quarter ending March 30, 2024, or such earlier date as we may elect (such period of
time, the “Covenant Relief Period”), including: (a) an increase in the maximum consolidated net total leverage ratio 5.25 to 1.00
for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, 6.75 to 1.00 for the quarter ending April 1, 2023, 7.25 to 1.00 for the quarter ending
July 1, 2023, 6.75 to 1.00 for the quarter ending September 30, 2023, 5.25 to 1.00 for the quarter ending December 30, 2023,
and 5.00 to 1.00 for the quarter ending March 30, 2024, and reverting back to 4.50 to 1.00 for each quarter after the Covenant
Relief Period has ended; (b) a reduction of the minimum interest coverage ratio from 3.00 to 1.00 to 2.60 to 1.00 for the quarter
ended December 31, 2022 and the quarter ending April 1, 2023, 2.00 to 1.00 for the quarters ending July 1, 2023, September
30, 2023 and December 30, 2023, and 2.50 to 1.00 for the quarter ending March 30, 2024, with an increase to 2.75 to 1.00 for
each quarter after the Covenant Relief Period has ended; (c) suspension of restricted payments in connection with share
repurchases; (d) suspension of restricted payments pursuant to the Company's leverage ratio-based and "Available Amount"
restricted payments baskets, (e) a cap on annual dividend payments of $75 million, which will revert back to the greater of (x)
$350 million and (y) 8.0% of Total Tangible Assets after the Covenant Relief Period has ended; (f) suspension of the
Company’s “Available Amount” basket for investments in foreign subsidiaries and other investments; (g) suspension of the
0.50 to 1.00 increase in the maximum permitted consolidated net total leverage ratio resulting from a material permitted
acquisition; and (h) the addition of two new tiers to the top of the pricing grid if the maximum consolidated net total leverage
ratio exceeds 5.00 to 1.00 and 5.50 to 1.00. In conjunction with the Second Amendment, we transitioned the Senior Secured
Credit Facility from the London Interbank Offered Rate to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate with a 10 basis points credit
spread adjustment already included in the Senior Secured Credit Facility. In addition, the Third Amendment limits the
39
Part II
Company's ability to incur incremental secured indebtedness during the Covenant Relief Period to $1.75 billion, subject to
compliance with the financial covenants.
We expect to maintain compliance with our covenants, as amended in February 2023, for at least one year from the
issuance of these financial statements based on our current expectations and forecasts. If economic conditions worsen and our
earnings and operating cash flows do not start to recover as currently estimated by management, this could impact our ability to
maintain compliance with our amended financial covenants and require us to seek additional amendments to our Senior Secured
Credit Facility. If we are not able to obtain such necessary additional amendments, this would lead to an event of default and, if
not cured timely, our lenders could require us to repay our outstanding debt. In that situation, we may not be able to raise
sufficient debt or equity capital, or divest assets, to refinance or repay the lenders.
We intend to refinance certain of our indebtedness with upcoming maturities, including an aggregate of approximately
$1.4 billion of our 4.625% Senior Notes due in May 2024 and our 3.5% Senior Notes due in June 2024 in the first quarter of
2023. Any such refinancings will depend on market conditions and other relevant factors and there can be no assurance such
refinancings will be pursued or completed.
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash generated from global operations and cash available under our Revolving Loan
Facility, our accounts receivable securitization facility (the “ARS Facility”) and our other international credit facilities.
We had the following borrowing capacity and available liquidity under our credit facilities as of December 31, 2022:

Borrowing availability under the ARS Facility is subject to a quarterly fluctuating facility limit, not to exceed $225 million and
permitted only to the extent that the face of the receivables in the collateral pool, net of applicable reserves and other deductions,
exceeds the outstanding loans.
The following have impacted or may impact our liquidity:
• We intend to refinance certain of our indebtedness with upcoming maturities, including an aggregate of
approximately $1.4 billion of our 4.625% Senior Notes due 2024 and our 3.5% Senior Notes due 2024 in the first
quarter of 2023. Any such refinancings will depend on market conditions and other relevant factors and there can be
no assurance such refinancings will be pursued or completed.
• We have principal and interest obligations under our debt and ongoing financial covenants under those debt
facilities.
•
•
•
The COVID-19 pandemic which resulted in supply chain disruptions and inflationary pressures has had, and may
continue to have, a negative impact on our business.
During 2022, we entered into transactions to repurchase approximately 1.6 million shares of our common stock at a
total cost of $25 million including broker’s commissions. At December 31, 2022, the remaining repurchase
authorization under our current share repurchase program announced on February 2, 2022 totaled approximately
$575 million.
Although we have historically paid a regular quarterly dividend, the Hanesbrands Board of Directors eliminated our
quarterly cash dividend as we recently shifted our capital allocation strategy to pay down debt to bring our leverage
back to a range that is no greater than two to three times on a net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA basis. The declaration of
any future dividends and, if declared, the amount of any such dividends, will be subject to our actual future earnings,
capital requirements, regulatory restrictions, debt covenants, other contractual restrictions and to the discretion of
our Board of Directors.
• We have invested in efforts to accelerate worldwide omnichannel and global growth initiatives, as well as marketing
and brand building.
40
Part II
• We have launched a multi-year cost savings program intended to self-fund the investments necessary to achieve our
Full Potential plan’s objectives.
• We expect capital expenditures of approximately $150 million in 2023, including capital expenditures of $70 million
within investing cash flow activities and cloud computing assets of $80 million within operating cash flow activities.
•
In the future, we may pursue strategic business acquisitions or divestitures.
• We made no cash contribution to our U.S. pension plans in 2022 and we expect to have no required cash
contributions to our U.S. pension plans in 2023 based on a preliminary calculation by our actuary. We may also elect
to make additional voluntary contributions. Our U.S. qualified pension plans were approximately 96% and 97%
funded as of December 1, 2022 and 2021, respectively, under the Pension Protection Act funding rules.
• We may increase or decrease the portion of the current-year income of our foreign subsidiaries that we remit to the
United States, which could impact our effective income tax rate. We have not changed our reinvestment strategy
from the prior year with regards to our unremitted foreign earnings and intend to remit foreign earnings totaling
$269 million.

Operating Activities
Our overall liquidity has historically been driven by our cash flow provided by operating activities, which is dependent on
net income and changes in our working capital. As compared to the prior year, higher net cash used by operating activities was
due to changes in working capital primarily accounts payable, accruals, inventory due to inflationary increases, softer point-of-
sale trends and supply chain disruptions, and increased capital investments in our cloud computing assets partially offset by
improvement in accounts receivable and lower pension plan contributions in 2022. Net cash from operating activities includes a
$40 million contribution to our U.S. pension plan made in the first quarter of 2021.
Investing Activities
The increase in cash used by investing activities in 2022 compared to 2021 was primarily the result of the purchase of the
Champion trademark for footwear in the United States, Puerto Rico and Canada from Keds, LLC for $103 million, the sale of
the European Innerwear business which resulted in an $11 million cash outflow and an increase in capital investments into our
business.
Financing Activities
Net cash from financing activities increased in 2022 primarily as a result of increased borrowings on our ARS Facility and
our Revolving Loan Facility coupled with the repayment of the outstanding balance of Term Loan B in 2021, which consisted
of a required excess cash flow prepayment of $239 million and a voluntary prepayment of $61 million, the amendment and
restatement of our Senior Secured Credit Facility which resulted in payment of $8 million for debt issuance costs in 2021, and
the redemption of our $700 million 5.375% Senior Notes which required payment of a make-whole premium of $35 million in
2021. Net cash from financing activities in 2022 also included shares repurchased at a total cost of $25 million and Term Loan
A scheduled payments of $25 million.
Financing Arrangements
In June 2022, we amended the ARS Facility. This amendment primarily increased the fluctuating facility limit to $225
million (previously $175 million) and extended the maturity date to June 2023. Additionally, the amendment changed our
interest rate option as defined in the ARS Facility from the rate announced from time to time by PNC Bank, N.A. as its prime
rate or the London Interbank Offered Rate to the rate announced from time to time by PNC Bank, N.A. as its prime rate or the
Secured Overnight Financing Rate and increased certain receivables to the pledged collateral pool for the facility.
We believe our financing structure provides a secure base to support our operations and key business strategies. As of
December 31, 2022, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under our credit facilities and other outstanding
indebtedness. Under the terms of our Senior Secured Credit Facility, among other financial and non-financial covenants, we are
required to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio and a maximum total debt to EBITDA (earnings before interest, income
taxes, depreciation expense and amortization, as computed pursuant to the Senior Secured Credit Facility), or leverage ratio,
each of which is defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facility. The method of calculating all of the components used in the
covenants is included in the Senior Secured Credit Facility. In November 2022 and in February 2023, given the uncertain
economic environment and the associated impact on future earnings, we amended the credit agreement governing our Senior
Secured Credit Facility prior to any potential covenant violation in order to modify the financial covenants and to provide
operating flexibility as described in Note “Debt” to our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on
Form 10-K. We expect to maintain compliance with our covenants, as amended in February 2023, for at least one year from the
issuance of these financial statements based on our current expectations and forecasts, however economic conditions or the
42
Part II
occurrence of events discussed under Part I, Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in this Annual Report on Form 10-K or other SEC filings
could impact our ability to maintain compliance or require us to seek additional amendments to the credit agreement.
We intend to refinance certain of our indebtedness with upcoming maturities, including an aggregate of approximately
$1.4 billion of our 4.625% Senior Notes due in May 2024 and our 3.5% Senior Notes due in June 2024 in the first quarter of
2023. Any such refinancings will depend on market conditions and other relevant factors and there can be no assurance such
refinancings will be pursued or completed.
For further details regarding our liquidity from our available cash balances and credit facilities see “Cash Requirements
and Trends and Uncertainties Affecting Liquidity” above.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
We have chosen accounting policies that we believe are appropriate to report our operating results and financial condition
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 “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” to
our consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
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 described below:
Sales Recognition and Incentives
We recognize revenue when obligations under the terms of a contract with a customer are satisfied, which occurs at a
point in time, upon either shipment or delivery to the customer. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect
to receive in exchange for transferring goods, which includes estimates for variable consideration. We record provisions for any
uncollectible amounts based upon our historical collection statistics and current customer information. Our management
reviews these estimates each quarter and makes adjustments based upon actual experience.
Note “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies — (d) Sales Recognition and Incentives” to our consolidated financial
statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K describes a variety of sales incentives that we offer to resellers and
consumers of our products. Measuring the cost of these incentives requires, in many cases, estimating future customer
utilization and redemption rates. We use historical data for similar transactions to estimate the cost of current incentive
programs. Our management reviews these estimates each quarter and makes adjustments based upon actual experience and
other available information. We classify the costs associated with cooperative advertising as a reduction in the “Net sales” line
in our Consolidated Statements of Income.
Accounts Receivable Valuation
Accounts receivable consist primarily of amounts due from customers. We carry our accounts receivable at their net
realizable value. In determining the appropriate allowance for doubtful accounts, we evaluate our receivables on a collection
(pool) basis which are aggregated based on similar risk characteristics and consider a combination of factors, such as historical
losses, the aging of trade receivables, industry trends, and our customers’ financial strength, credit standing and payment and
default history. Changes in the characteristics of our accounts receivables and the aforementioned factors, among others, are
reviewed quarterly and may lead to adjustments in our allowance for doubtful accounts. The calculation of the required
allowance involves judgment by our management as to the impact of these and other factors on the ultimate realization of our
trade receivables. Charges to the allowance for doubtful accounts are reflected in the “Selling, general and administrative
expenses” line and charges to the allowance for customer chargebacks and other customer deductions are primarily reflected as
a reduction in the “Net sales” line in our Consolidated Statements of Income. Because we cannot predict future changes in the
financial stability of our customers, actual future losses from uncollectible accounts may differ from our estimates. If the
financial condition of our customers were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make payments, a large reserve might be
required. The amount of actual historical losses has not varied materially from our estimates for bad debts.
Inventory Valuation
We carry inventory on our balance sheet at the estimated lower of cost or market. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-
out, or “FIFO,” method for our inventories. We carry obsolete, damaged and excess inventory at the net realizable value, which
43
Part II
we determine by assessing historical recovery rates, current market conditions and our future marketing and sales plans.
Because our assessment of net realizable value is made at a point in time, there are inherent uncertainties related to our value
determination. Market factors and other conditions underlying the net realizable value may change, resulting in further reserve
requirements. A reduction in the carrying amount of an inventory item from cost to market value creates a new cost basis for
the item that cannot be reversed at a later period. While we believe that adequate write-downs for inventory obsolescence have
been provided in the consolidated financial statements, consumer tastes and preferences will continue to change and we could
experience additional inventory write-downs in the future.
Rebates, discounts and other cash consideration received from a vendor related to inventory purchases are reflected as
reductions in the cost of the related inventory item, and are therefore reflected in the “Cost of Sales” line in our Consolidated
Statements of Income when the related inventory item is sold.
Income Taxes
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are established for temporary differences between the financial reporting basis and the
income tax basis of our assets and liabilities, as well as for realizable operating loss and tax credit carryforwards, at tax rates in
effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. Realization of deferred tax assets is dependent on future
taxable income in specific jurisdictions, the amount and timing of which are uncertain, and on possible changes in tax laws and
tax planning strategies. If in our judgment it appears that it is more likely than not that all or some portion of the asset will not
be realized, valuation allowances are established against our deferred tax assets, which increase income tax expense in the
period when such determination is made.
We recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be
sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits recognized in
the consolidated financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 50%
likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution. These assessments of uncertain tax positions contain judgments related to
the interpretation of tax regulations in the jurisdictions in which we transact business. The judgments and estimates made at a
point in time may change based on the outcome of tax audits, expiration of statutes of limitations, as well as changes to, or
further interpretations of tax laws and regulations. Income tax expense is adjusted in our Consolidated Statements of Income in
the period in which these events occur.
Assets and Liabilities Acquired in Business Combinations
We account for business combinations using the purchase method, which requires us to allocate the cost of an acquired
business to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date. We recognize
the excess of an acquired business’ cost over the fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities as goodwill. We use a
variety of information sources to determine the fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities. We generally use third-
party appraisers to assist management in determination of the fair value and lives of property and identifiable intangibles,
consulting actuaries to assist management in determining the fair value of obligations associated with defined benefit pension
plans and legal counsel to assist management in assessing obligations associated with legal and environmental claims.
Trademarks and Other Identifiable Intangibles
Trademarks, license agreements, customer and distributor relationships and computer software are our primary
identifiable intangible assets. We amortize identifiable intangibles determined to have finite lives over their estimated useful
lives, and we do not amortize identifiable intangibles with indefinite lives. As of December 31, 2022, the net book value of
trademarks and other identifiable intangible assets was $1.3 billion, of which we are amortizing a balance of $111 million. We
anticipate that our amortization expense for 2023 will be approximately $30 million.
We evaluate identifiable intangible assets subject to amortization for impairment at least annually and as triggering events
occur, such as significant adverse changes in business climate, several periods of operating or cash flow losses, forecasted
continued losses or a current expectation that an intangible asset’s value will be eliminated prior to the end of its useful life. We
estimate an intangible asset’s useful life based on historical experience, the level of maintenance expenditures required to obtain
future cash flows, future business plans and the period over which the asset will be economically useful to us. Our policies
require that we periodically review our assets’ remaining depreciable lives based upon actual experience and expected future
utilization. A change in the depreciable life is treated as a change in accounting estimate and the accelerated amortization is
accounted for in the period of change and future periods.
We assess identifiable intangible assets not subject to amortization for impairment at least annually, as of the first day of
the third fiscal quarter, and more often as triggering events occur. In order to determine the impairment of identifiable
intangible assets, we compare the fair value of the intangible asset to its carrying amount. Fair values of intangible assets are
44
Part II
primarily based on future cash flows projected to be generated from that asset. We recognize an impairment loss for the amount
by which an identifiable intangible asset’s carrying value exceeds its fair value.
In connection with our annual impairment testing performed in the third quarter of 2022, we performed a quantitative
assessment, utilizing an income approach to estimate the fair value of each indefinite-lived intangible asset. The most
significant assumptions include the weighted average cost of capital, revenue growth rate, terminal growth rate and operating
profit margin, all of which are used to estimate the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible assets. The tests indicated the
indefinite-lived intangible assets had fair values that exceeded their carrying values and no impairment of trademarks or other
identifiable intangible assets was identified as a result of our annual testing conducted in 2022.
Goodwill
As of December 31, 2022, we had $1.1 billion of goodwill. We do not amortize goodwill, but we assess for impairment at
least annually and more often as triggering events occur. The timing of our annual goodwill impairment testing is the first day
of the third fiscal quarter. In evaluating the recoverability of goodwill in 2022, we estimated the fair value of our reporting
units. We relied on a number of factors to determine the fair value of our reporting units and evaluated various factors to
discount anticipated future cash flows, including operating results, business plans and present value techniques. As discussed
above under “Trademarks and Other Identifiable Intangibles,” there are inherent uncertainties related to these factors, and our
judgment in applying them and the assumptions underlying the impairment analysis may change in such a manner that
impairment in value may occur in the future. Such impairment will be recognized in the period in which it becomes known.
In connection with our annual goodwill impairment testing performed during the third quarter of 2022, we performed a
quantitative assessment utilizing an income approach to estimate the fair value of each reporting unit. The most significant
assumptions include the weighted average cost of capital, revenue growth rate, terminal growth rate and operating profit
margin, all of which are used to estimate the fair value of the reporting units. The tests indicated the reporting units had fair
values that exceeded their carrying values, and no impairment of goodwill was identified as a result of our annual testing
conducted in 2022.
Defined Benefit Pension Plans
For a discussion of our defined benefit pension plans and the related net periodic benefit cost, plan obligations, plan assets
and how we measure the amount of these costs, see Note “Defined Benefit Pension Plans” to our consolidated financial
statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The funded status of our defined benefit pension plans are recognized
on our balance sheet. Differences between actual results in a given year and the actuarially determined assumed results for that
year are deferred as unrecognized actuarial gains or losses in comprehensive income. We measure the funded status of our plans
as of the date of our fiscal year end.
The net periodic benefit cost of the pension plans is determined using projections and actuarial assumptions, the most
significant of which are the discount rate and the long-term rate of asset return. The net periodic pension income or expense is
recognized in the year incurred. Gains and losses, which occur when actual experience differs from actuarial assumptions, are
amortized over the average future expected life of participants. As benefits under the Hanesbrands Inc. Pension Plan are frozen,
year over year fluctuations in our pension expense are not expected to have a material impact on our Consolidated Statements
of Income.
Our policies regarding the establishment of pension assumptions are as follows:
•
•
•
•
Discount rate assumptions are generally based on yield curves applicable to each country and the expected cash
flows for each plan. For our U.S. defined benefit plans, we use the full series of spot rates along the Aon AA-Only
Above Median Yield Curve and expected plan cash flows to determine liabilities and expense. Single equivalent
discount rates are shown for disclosure purposes.
Salary increase assumptions, where applicable, are generally based on historical experience and management
expectations. This assumption is not applicable to the U.S., Italy or Canada SERP as benefits under these plans are
either frozen or not tied to pay. The benefits under the Hanesbrands Inc. Legacy Pension Plan and the Hanesbrands
Inc. Pension Plan were frozen as of December 31, 2005.
Long-term rate of return on plan assets assumptions, where applicable, are generally based on each plan’s
investment mix and forward-looking capital market assumptions applicable to each country. Expected returns also
reflect an incremental premium for actively managed investments and a reduction for trust-paid expenses. This
assumption is not applicable to unfunded plans.
Retirement and turnover assumptions are generally based on actual plan experience while standard actuarial
mortality tables applicable to each country are used to estimate life expectancy. For our U.S. defined benefit plans,
45
Part II
the 2022 mortality tables are from the Society of Actuaries’ Private Plan study published in 2019 (Pri-2012)
projected generationally with Scale MP-2021 and reflecting Aon’s Endemic scale adjustment, which increases the
standard mortality rates in the near term due to the impact of the pandemic in the U.S., scaling down each year to a
permanent slight increase to the standard mortality rates.
The sensitivity of changes in actuarial assumptions on our annual pension expense and on our plans’ benefit obligations,
all other factors being equal, is illustrated by the following:

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
We are exposed to market risk from changes in foreign exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices. Our risk
management control system uses analytical techniques including market value, sensitivity analysis and value at risk estimations.
Foreign Exchange Rates
We sell the majority of our products in transactions denominated in U.S. dollars; however, we purchase some raw
materials, pay a portion of our wages and make other payments in our supply chain in foreign currencies. With our international
commercial presence, we also have foreign entities that purchase raw materials and finished goods in U.S. dollars. We are also
exposed to foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the effect that fluctuations in foreign exchange rates have on the
reported results in our consolidated financial statements due to the translation of operating results and financial position of our
foreign subsidiaries. Our exposure to foreign exchange rates exists primarily with respect to the Australian dollar, Euro,
Canadian dollar and Mexican peso against the U.S. dollar. We use forward foreign exchange contracts, cross-currency swap
contracts and nonderivative financial instruments to hedge material exposure to adverse changes in foreign exchange rates. A
sensitivity analysis technique has been used to evaluate the effect that changes in the market value of foreign exchange
currencies will have on our forward foreign exchange and cross-currency swap derivative contracts. At December 31, 2022,
assuming a 10% adverse change in the underlying currency price, the potential change in fair value of foreign currency
derivative instruments would be unfavorable by approximately $28 million.
Interest Rates
Our debt under the Revolving Loan Facility, the Term Loan A and the ARS Facility bears interest at variable rates. As a
result, we are exposed to changes in market interest rates that could impact the cost of servicing our debt. Approximately 60%
of our total debt outstanding at December 31, 2022 is at a fixed rate. A 25-basis point movement in the annual interest rate
charged on the outstanding debt balances as of December 31, 2022 would result in a change in annual interest expense of
approximately $4 million.
Commodity Prices
We are exposed to commodity price fluctuations primarily as a result of the cost of materials that are used in our
manufacturing process. Cotton is the primary raw material used in manufacturing many of our products. Under our current
agreements with our primary yarn suppliers, we have the ability to periodically fix the cotton cost component of our yarn
purchases so that the suppliers bear the risk of cotton price fluctuation for the specified yarn volume and interim fluctuations in
the price of cotton do not impact our costs. However, our business can be affected by sustained dramatic movements in cotton
prices.
46
In addition, fluctuations in crude oil or petroleum prices may influence the prices of other raw materials we use to
manufacture our products, such as chemicals, dyestuffs, polyester yarn and foam, as well as affect our transportation and utility
costs. We generally purchase raw materials at market prices.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Hanesbrands Inc.
Management of Hanesbrands Inc. (“Hanesbrands”) is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal
control over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act. Internal control over financial reporting is
a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of
financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted. Hanesbrands’ internal
control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in
reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of Hanesbrands; (ii) provide
reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance
with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and that receipts and expenditures of Hanesbrands are being
made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of Hanesbrands; and (iii) provide reasonable
assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of Hanesbrands’ assets that
could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also,
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Management
has evaluated the effectiveness of Hanesbrands’ internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based upon
criteria for effective internal control over financial reporting described in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2013)
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). Based on this evaluation,
management concluded that Hanesbrands’ internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2022.
The effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022 has been audited by
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, as stated in their report, which is included on
the following pages.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Hanesbrands Inc.
Opinions on the Financial Statements and Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Hanesbrands Inc. and its subsidiaries (the “Company”)
as of December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022, and the related consolidated statements of income, of comprehensive income, of
stockholders’ equity and of cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022, including the related
notes (collectively referred to as the “consolidated financial statements”). We also have audited the Company's internal control
over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework
(2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of the Company as of December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2022 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in
the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control
over financial reporting as of December 31, 2022, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework
(2013) issued by the COSO.
Basis for Opinions
The Company's management is responsible for these consolidated financial statements, for maintaining effective internal
control over financial reporting, and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included
in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express
opinions on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting
based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities
laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material
misstatement, whether due to error or fraud, and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in
all material respects.
Our audits of the consolidated financial statements included performing procedures to assess the risks of material
misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to
those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the
consolidated financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements. Our audit of
internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting,
assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal
control based on the assessed risk. Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the
circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.
Emphasis of Matter
As discussed in Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements, Debt, the Company has approximately $1.4 billion of
outstanding debt that is due in the second quarter of 2024.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the
reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures
that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and
dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit
preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and
expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the
company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or
disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
F-3
Financial Statements
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also,
projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate
because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Critical Audit Matters
The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the consolidated
financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that (i) relates to
accounts or disclosures that are material to the consolidated financial statements and (ii) involved our especially challenging,
subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the
consolidated financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below,
providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.
Impairment Assessments – Goodwill of Certain Reporting Units and Indefinite-Lived Trademarks
As described in Notes 2 and 11 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company’s goodwill and indefinite-lived
trademarks balances were $1,109 million and $1,143 million, respectively, as of December 31, 2022. These assets are assessed
for impairment at least annually, as of the first day of the Company’s third fiscal quarter, and as triggering events occur. The
impairment test consists of comparing the fair value of the reporting unit or intangible asset, which is determined using the
income approach, to its carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset, an impairment loss is recognized
in an amount equal to such excess. Fair values of reporting units and intangible assets are primarily based on future cash flows
projected to be generated from that asset. In performing the discounted cash flow analysis, management makes various
judgments, estimates and assumptions, the most significant of which are the assumptions related to revenue growth rates,
operating profit margin rates, terminal growth rates, and discount rates. Rates used to discount cash flows are dependent upon
interest rates and the cost of capital at a point in time.
The principal considerations for our determination that performing procedures relating to the impairment assessments for
goodwill of certain reporting units and indefinite-lived trademarks is a critical audit matter are (i) the significant judgment by
management when developing the fair value measurement of certain reporting units and indefinite-lived trademarks; (ii) a high
degree of auditor judgment, subjectivity and effort in performing procedures and evaluating management’s significant
assumptions related to the revenue growth rates, operating profit margin rates, and discount rates; and (iii) the audit effort
involved the use of professionals with specialized skill and knowledge.
Addressing the matter involved performing procedures and evaluating audit evidence in connection with forming our
overall opinion on the consolidated financial statements. These procedures included testing the effectiveness of controls relating
to management’s goodwill and indefinite-lived trademarks impairment assessments, including controls over the valuation of the
Company’s reporting units and indefinite-lived trademarks. These procedures also included, among others (i) testing
management’s process for developing the fair value estimate of certain reporting units and indefinite-lived trademarks; (ii)
evaluating the appropriateness of the discounted cash flow analysis; (iii) testing the completeness and accuracy of underlying
data used in the analysis; and (iv) evaluating the significant assumptions used by management related to the revenue growth
rates, operating profit margin rates, and discount rates. Evaluating management’s assumptions related to revenue growth rates
and operating profit margin rates involved evaluating whether the assumptions were reasonable considering (i) the current and
past performance of the reporting units and branded products associated with the trademarks; (ii) the consistency with external
market and industry data; and (iii) whether these assumptions were consistent with evidence obtained in other areas of the audit.
Professionals with specialized skill and knowledge were used to assist in the evaluation of the discount rates assumption.

Financial Statements
(1) Basis of Presentation
Hanesbrands Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), is a consumer goods company with a portfolio of leading
apparel brands, including Hanes, Champion, Bonds, Maidenform, Bali, Playtex, Bras N Things, JMS/Just My Size, Gear for
Sports, Wonderbra, Berlei, Comfortwash, and Alternative. The Company designs, manufactures, sources and sells a broad range
of basic apparel such as T-shirts, bras, panties, shapewear, underwear, socks and activewear.
The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to December 31. All references to “2022”, “2021” and “2020”
relate to the 52-week fiscal year ended on December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022, and the 53-week fiscal year ended on
January 2, 2021, respectively. Two subsidiaries of the Company close one day after the Company’s consolidated year end. The
difference in reporting of financial information for these subsidiaries did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial
condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Business Strategy
In late 2020, the Company undertook a comprehensive global business review focused on building consumer-centric
growth. The review resulted in the Company’s Full Potential plan, which is its multi-year growth strategy that focuses on four
pillars to drive growth and enhance long-term profitability and identifies the initiatives to unlock growth. The Company’s four
pillars of growth are to grow the Champion brand globally, drive growth in Innerwear with brands and products that appeal to
younger consumers, drive consumer-centricity by delivering innovative products and improving awareness through investments
in brand marketing and digital capabilities, and streamline its global portfolio.
In the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company began the implementation of its Full Potential plan and as part of its strategy
to streamline its portfolio, the Company determined that its personal protective equipment (“PPE”) business was no longer a
growth opportunity and recorded a charge of $362,913 to write down its entire PPE inventory balance to its estimated net
realizable value and a charge of $26,400 to accrue for vendor commitments for PPE materials that were paid in 2021.
Additionally, the Company commenced an initiative to reduce 20% of its SKUs in inventory in order to streamline product
offerings while also implementing a formal lifecycle management process. As a result, the Company recorded a charge of
$192,704 to write down inventory to its estimated net realizable value taking into account these initiatives. These initiatives will
position the Company for long-term growth by driving higher margin sales, lowering costs and improving service to customers.
In the first quarter of 2021, the Company announced that it reached the decision to exit its European Innerwear business as
part of its strategy to streamline its portfolio under its Full Potential plan and determined that this business met held-for-sale and
discontinued operations accounting criteria. Accordingly, the Company began to separately report the results of its European
Innerwear business as discontinued operations in its Consolidated Statements of Income, and to present the related assets and
liabilities as held for sale in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. On November 4, 2021, the Company announced that it reached
an agreement to sell its European Innerwear business to an affiliate of Regent, L.P. and completed the sale on March 5, 2022.
Unless otherwise noted, discussion within these notes to the consolidated financial statements relates to continuing operations.
See Note “Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale” for additional information.
In addition, in the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company reached the decision to divest its U.S. Sheer Hosiery business,
including the L’eggs brand, as part of its strategy to streamline its portfolio under its Full Potential plan and determined that this
business met held-for-sale accounting criteria, The related assets and liabilities are presented as held for sale in the Consolidated
Balance Sheets at December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022. The operations of the U.S. Sheer Hosiery business are reported in
“Other” for all periods presented in Note “Business Segment Information”. The Company is currently exploring potential
purchasers for this business and expects to complete the sale within the next 12 months. See Note “Assets and Liabilities Held
for Sale” for additional information.
Ransomware Attack
As previously disclosed, on May 24, 2022, the Company identified that it had become subject to a ransomware attack and
activated its incident response and business continuity plans designed to contain the incident. As part of the Company’s forensic
investigation and assessment of the impact, the Company determined that certain of its information technology systems were
affected by the ransomware attack.

Years ended December 31, 2022, January 1, 2022 and January 2, 2021
(amounts in thousands, except per share data)
Upon discovering the incident, the Company took a series of measures to further safeguard the integrity of its information
technology systems, including working with cybersecurity experts to contain the incident and implementing business continuity
plans to restore and support continued operations. These measures also included resecuring data, remediation of the malware
across infected machines, rebuilding critical systems, global password reset and enhanced security monitoring. The Company
notified appropriate law enforcement authorities as well as certain data protection regulators, and in addition to the Company’s
public announcements of the incident, the Company provided breach notifications and regulatory filings as required by
applicable law starting in August 2022. At this time, the Company believes the incident has been contained, the Company has
restored its critical information technology systems, and manufacturing, retail and other internal operations continue. There is
no ongoing operational impact on the Company’s ability to provide its products and services. The Company maintains
insurance, including coverage for cyber-attacks, subject to certain deductibles and policy limitations, in an amount that the
Company believes appropriate.
The Company is named in two pending lawsuits in connection with its previously disclosed ransomware incident. On
October 7, 2022, a putative class action was filed against “Hanes Brands [sic], Inc.” alleging, among other things, negligence,
negligence per se, breach of implied contract, unjust enrichment, breach of implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing,
unfair business practices under the California Business and Professions Code, and violations of the California Confidentiality of
Medical Information Act in connection with the ransomware incident. The litigation is entitled, Roman v. Hanes Brands [sic],
Inc., and is pending in the United States District Court for the Central District of California. Plaintiff Roman also subsequently
filed a second putative class action with regard to the ransomware incident in the United States District Court for the Middle
District of North Carolina on January 16, 2023, entitled Roman v. Hanesbrands,[sic] Inc., which was voluntarily dismissed
without prejudice on January 20, 2023. On October 13, 2022, another putative class action was filed against HanesBrands Inc.
alleging, among other things, negligence, negligence per se, breach of implied contract, invasion of privacy, and unjust
enrichment in connection with the ransomware incident. The litigation is entitled, Toussaint v. HanesBrands,[sic] Inc. and is
pending in the United States District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina. The pending lawsuits seek, among other
things, monetary and injunctive relief. The Company is vigorously defending these matters and believes the cases are without
merit. The Company does not expect any of these claims, individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on
its consolidated financial position or results of operations. However, at this early stage in the proceedings, the Company is not
able to determine the probability of the outcome of these matters or a range of reasonably expected losses, if any. The Company
maintains insurance, including coverage for cyber-attacks, subject to certain deductibles and policy limitations, in an amount
that the Company believes appropriate.
During the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company incurred costs of $15,427, net of expected insurance recoveries,
related to the ransomware attack. The costs for the year ended December 31, 2022 included $14,168 related primarily to supply
chain disruptions, which are reflected in the “Cost of sales” line of the Consolidated Statements of Income and $1,259, net of
expected insurance recoveries, related primarily to legal, information technology and consulting fees, which are reflected in the
“Selling, general and administrative expenses” line of the Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company continues to
assess the security event and cannot determine, at this time, the full extent of the impact from such event on its business, results
of operations or financial condition or whether such impact will ultimately have a material adverse effect.
Financing Arrangements
In November 2022 and in February 2023, given the economic conditions and the associated impact on earnings, the
Company amended the credit agreement governing its Senior Secured Credit Facility to modify the financial covenants in order
to avoid a potential covenant violation and to provide operating flexibility as described in Note “Debt”.
(2) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
(a) Consolidation
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly owned
subsidiaries. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation, except for certain intercompany
sales and related profit and receivables from the Company’s supply chain to the European Innerwear business, which is
classified as discontinued operations in the consolidated financial statements and was sold on March 5, 2022. See Note “Assets
and Liabilities Held for Sale” for additional information.

(amounts in thousands, except per share data)
Financial Statements
(b) Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles
(“GAAP”) requires management to make use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amount of assets and
liabilities, certain financial statement disclosures at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues
and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results may vary from these estimates.
(c) Foreign Currency Translation
Foreign currency-denominated assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at exchange rates existing at the
respective balance sheet dates. Translation adjustments resulting from fluctuations in exchange rates are recorded as a separate
component of accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCI”) within stockholders’ equity. The Company translates the results
of operations of its foreign operations at the average exchange rates during the respective periods. Gains and losses resulting
from foreign currency transactions are included in both the “Cost of sales” and “Selling, general and administrative expenses”
lines in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
(d) Sales Recognition and Incentives
The Company recognizes revenue when obligations under the terms of a contract with a customer are satisfied, which
occurs at a point in time, upon either shipment or delivery to the customer. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration
the Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods, which includes estimates for variable consideration. The
Company records a sales reduction for returns and allowances based upon historical return experience. The Company earns
royalty revenues through license agreements with manufacturers of other consumer products that incorporate certain of the
Company’s brands. The Company accrues revenue earned under these contracts based upon reported sales from the licensee.
The Company offers a variety of sales incentives to resellers and consumers of its products, and the policies regarding the
recognition and display of these incentives within the Consolidated Statements of Income are as follows:
Discounts, Coupons, and Rebates
The Company provides customers with discounts and rebates that are explicitly stated in the Company’s contracts and are
recorded as a reduction of revenue in the period the product revenue is recognized. The cost of these incentives is estimated
using a number of factors, including historical utilization and redemption rates. The Company includes incentives offered in the
form of free products in the determination of cost of sales.
For all variable consideration, where appropriate, the Company estimates the amount using the expected value, which
takes into consideration historical experience, current contractual requirements, specific known market events and forecasted
customer buying and payment patterns. Overall, these reserves reflect the Company’s best estimates of the amount of
consideration to which the customer is entitled based on the terms of the contracts.
Volume-Based Incentives
Volume-based incentives involve rebates or refunds of cash that are redeemable only if the customer completes a
specified number of sales transactions. Under these incentive programs, the Company estimates the anticipated rebate to be paid
and allocates a portion of the estimated cost of the rebate to each underlying sales transaction with the customer. The Company
records volume-based incentives as a reduction of revenue.
Cooperative Advertising
Under cooperative advertising arrangements, the Company agrees to reimburse the retailer for a portion of the costs
incurred by the retailer to advertise and promote certain of the Company’s products. The Company recognizes the cost of
cooperative advertising programs in the period in which the advertising and promotional activity takes place as a reduction of
revenue.
Fixtures and Racks
Store fixtures and racks are periodically used by resellers to display Company products. The Company expenses the cost
of these fixtures and racks in the period in which they are delivered to the resellers. The Company includes the costs of fixtures

and racks incurred by resellers and charged back to the Company in the determination of net sales. Fixtures and racks purchased
by the Company and provided to resellers are included in the “Selling, general and administrative expenses” line in the
Consolidated Statements of Income.
Product Returns
The Company generally offers customers a limited right of return for a purchased product. The Company estimates the
amount of its product sales that may be returned by its customers and records this as a reduction of revenue in the period the
related product revenue is recognized.
(e) Advertising Expense
Advertising represents one of several brand building methods used by the Company. Advertising costs, which include the
development and production of advertising materials and the communication of these materials through various forms of media,
are expensed in the period the advertising first takes place. The Company recognized advertising expense in the “Selling,
general and administrative expenses” line in the Consolidated Statements of Income of $208,881, $208,998 and $113,586 in
2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
(f) Shipping and Handling Costs
Revenue received for shipping and handling costs is included in net sales and was $13,578, $19,461 and $18,943 in 2022,
2021 and 2020, respectively. Shipping costs, which comprise payments to third-party shippers, and handling costs, which
consist of warehousing costs in the Company’s various distribution facilities, were $415,989, $447,131 and $389,252 in 2022,
2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company recognizes shipping, handling and distribution costs in the “Selling, general and
administrative expenses” line in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
(g) Research and Development
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred and are included in the “Selling, general and administrative
expenses” line in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Research and development includes expenditures for new product,
technological improvements for existing products and process innovation, which primarily consist of salaries, consulting and
supplies attributable to time spent on research and development activities. Additional costs include depreciation and
maintenance for research and development equipment and facilities. Research and development expense was $38,911, $39,320
and $37,367 in 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
(h) Defined Contribution Benefit Plans
The Company sponsors 401(k) plans as well as other defined contribution benefit plans. Expense for these plans was
$26,296, $37,979 and $34,720 in 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
(i) Cash and Cash Equivalents
All highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less at the time of purchase are considered to be
cash equivalents. Cash that is subject to legal restrictions or is unavailable for general operating purposes is classified as
restricted cash and is included within “Other current assets” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
As of January 2, 2021, an indemnification escrow balance of A$1,517 (U.S. $1,166) related to the Company’s 2018
acquisition of BNT Holdco Pty Limited was held in one of the Company’s bank accounts and classified as restricted cash in the
“Other current assets” line in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. This balance was paid to the sellers in the second quarter of
2021. The Company had no restricted cash as of December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022.
(j) Accounts Receivable Valuation
Accounts receivable are stated at their net realizable value. The allowance for doubtful accounts reflects the Company’s
best estimate of probable losses inherent in the accounts receivable portfolio. Trade receivables are evaluated on a collection
(pool) basis and aggregated on the basis of similar risk characteristics which are determined on the basis of historical losses, the
aging of trade receivables, industry trends, and its customers’ financial strength, credit standing and payment and default
history.

Years ended December 31, 2022, January 1, 2022 and January 2, 2021
(amounts in thousands, except per share data)
Financial Statements
(k) Inventory Valuation
Inventories are stated at the estimated lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost is determined by the first-in, first-out, or
“FIFO”, method for inventories. Obsolete, damaged, and excess inventory is carried at the net realizable value, which is
determined by assessing historical recovery rates, current market conditions and future marketing and sales plans. Rebates,
discounts and other cash consideration received from a vendor related to inventory purchases are reflected as reductions in the
cost of the related inventory item and are therefore reflected in cost of sales when the related inventory item is sold.
(l) Property
Property is stated at historical cost and depreciation expense is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated
useful lives of the assets. Machinery and equipment is depreciated over periods ranging from one to 15 years and buildings and
building improvements over periods of up to 40 years. A change in the depreciable life is treated as a change in accounting
estimate and the accelerated depreciation is accounted for in the period of change and future periods. Additions and
improvements that substantially extend the useful life of a particular asset and interest costs incurred during the construction
period of major properties are capitalized. Repairs and maintenance costs are expensed as incurred. Upon sale or disposition of
an asset, the cost and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the accounts.
Property is tested for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that its carrying value may not
be recoverable. Such events include significant adverse changes in the business climate, several periods of operating or cash
flow losses, forecasted continuing losses or a current expectation that an asset or an asset group will be disposed of before the
end of its useful life. Recoverability of property is evaluated by a comparison of the carrying amount of an asset or asset group
to future net undiscounted cash flows expected to be generated by the asset or asset group. If these comparisons indicate that an
asset is not recoverable, the impairment loss recognized is the amount by which the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the
estimated fair value. When an impairment loss is recognized for assets to be held and used, the adjusted carrying amount of
those assets is depreciated over its remaining useful life. Restoration of a previously recognized impairment loss is not
permitted under GAAP.
(m) Leases
The Company accounts for leases under the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting
Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842)”. The Company determines whether an arrangement is a lease at
inception. At inception, a right of use asset and lease liability is recorded. The Company has operating leases for real estate
(primarily retail stores and operating facilities) and certain equipment. The Company’s finance leases are not material. Leases
with a term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet; the Company recognizes lease expense for these leases
on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company’s sole discretion. In general, for leased retail real estate, the
Company will not include renewal options in the underlying lease term. However, if a situation arises where the lessor has
control over the option periods, then the Company will include these periods within the lease term. The depreciable life of
assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term.
Certain of the Company’s lease agreements include rental payments based on a percentage of retail sales over contractual
levels and others include rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain
any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based
on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments.
In light of temporary store closures related to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company took actions in 2020, 2021 and
2022 with respect to certain of its existing leases, including withholding rent payments and engaging with landlords to obtain
rent deferrals and other rent concessions. Consistent with updated guidance from the FASB in April 2020, the Company elected
to treat agreed-upon payment deferrals that resulted in the total payments required by the modified contract being substantially
the same as total payments required by the contract as if there were no modifications to the lease contract. The Company
elected to treat other agreed-upon rent concessions, which resulted in reduced minimum lease payments, as variable lease
payments. For any agreed-upon rent concessions, which change the payment terms from minimum rental amounts to amounts

(amounts in thousands, except per share data)
based on a percentage of sales volume, the Company elected to treat such changes as lease modifications under the current lease
guidance.
(n) Trademarks and Other Identifiable Intangible Assets
The primary identifiable intangible assets of the Company are trademarks, licensing agreements, customer and distributor
relationships and computer software. Identifiable intangible assets with finite lives are amortized and those with indefinite lives
are not amortized. The estimated useful life of a finite-lived intangible asset is based upon a number of factors, including the
effects of demand, competition, expected changes in distribution channels and the level of maintenance expenditures required to
obtain future cash flows. Trademarks determined to have finite lives are generally amortized over periods ranging from 10 to 20
years, license agreements are generally amortized over periods ranging from three to 15 years, customer and distributor
relationships are generally amortized over periods ranging up to 15 years and computer software and other intangibles are
generally amortized over periods ranging from one to 13 years.
Identifiable intangible assets that are subject to amortization are evaluated for impairment using a process similar to that
used in evaluating elements of property. Identifiable intangible assets not subject to amortization are assessed for impairment at
least annually, as of the first day of the third fiscal quarter, and as triggering events occur. The impairment test for identifiable
intangible assets not subject to amortization consists of comparing the fair value of the intangible asset, which is determined
using the income approach, to its carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset, an impairment loss is
recognized in an amount equal to such excess. Fair values of intangible assets are primarily based on future cash flows
projected to be generated from that asset. In performing the discounted cash flow analysis, management makes various
judgments, estimates and assumptions, the most significant of which are the assumptions related to revenue growth rates,
operating profit margin rates, terminal growth rates, and discount rates. Rates used to discount cash flows are dependent upon
interest rates and the cost of capital at a point in time. There are inherent uncertainties related to these factors and
management’s judgment in applying them to the analysis of intangible asset impairment.
The Company capitalizes internal software development costs incurred during the application development stage, which
include the actual costs to purchase software from vendors and generally include personnel and related costs for employees who
were directly associated with the enhancement and implementation of purchased computer software. Additions to computer
software are included in the “Capital expenditures” line in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
(o) Goodwill
Goodwill is the amount by which the purchase price exceeds the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in
a business combination. When a business combination is completed, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed are assigned to
the reporting unit or units of the Company given responsibility for managing, controlling and generating returns on these assets
and liabilities. In many instances, all of the acquired assets and assumed liabilities are assigned to a single reporting unit and in
these cases, all of the goodwill is assigned to the same reporting unit. In those situations in which the acquired assets and
liabilities are allocated to more than one reporting unit, the goodwill to be assigned to each reporting unit is determined in a
manner similar to how the amount of goodwill recognized in a business combination is determined.
Goodwill is not amortized; however, it is assessed for impairment at least annually, as of the first day of the third quarter,
and as triggering events occur. In evaluating the recoverability of goodwill, the Company estimates the fair value of its
reporting units, which is determined using the income approach, and compares it to the carrying value. If the carrying value of
the reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment loss is recognized in an amount equal to such excess. Fair values of
reporting units are primarily based on future cash flows projected to be generated from that business. In performing the
discounted cash flow analysis, management makes various judgments, estimates and assumptions, the most significant of which
are the assumptions related to revenue growth rates, operating profit margin rates, terminal growth rates, and discount rates.
Rates used to discount cash flows are dependent upon interest rates and the cost of capital at a point in time. There are inherent
uncertainties related to these factors and management’s judgment in applying them to the analysis of goodwill impairment.

Financial Statements
(p) Cloud Computing Arrangements
The Company’s cloud computing arrangements (“CCA”) include software licenses purchased from external vendors.
Software license costs, implementation costs incurred during the application development stage and other costs meeting certain
criteria are capitalized while all other costs are expensed as incurred. These assets are included in computer software in the
“Trademarks and other identifiable intangibles, net” line in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and amortize on a straight-line
basis over their assessed useful lives. See Note “Intangible Assets and Goodwill” for additional information.
If a CCA does not include the purchase of a software license, the arrangement is accounted for as a service contract and
the fees associated with the hosting service are expensed as incurred. These costs are included in prepaid assets in the “Other
current assets” line in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Implementation costs incurred during the application development
stage as well as costs meeting certain criteria are capitalized and expensed on a straight-line basis over the term of the hosting
contract. These assets are included in the “Other noncurrent assets” line in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of
December 31, 2022, net capitalized CCA assets were $53,637. Changes in these assets are included in the “Other assets” line
within operating activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
(q) Insurance Reserves
The Company is self-insured for property, workers’ compensation,
medical and other casualty programs up to certain stop-loss limits. Undiscounted liabilities for self-insured exposures are
accrued at the present value of the expected aggregate losses below those limits and are based on a number of assumptions,
including historical trends, actuarial assumptions and economic conditions.
(r) Stock-Based Compensation
The Company established the Hanesbrands Inc. Omnibus Incentive Plan (As Amended and Restated), (the “Omnibus
Incentive Plan”) to award stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, deferred stock units,
performance shares and cash to its employees, non-employee directors and employees of its subsidiaries to promote the
interests of the Company, incent performance and retain employees. Stock-based compensation is estimated at the grant date
based on the award’s fair value and is recognized as expense over the requisite service period. The Company estimates
forfeitures for stock-based awards granted that are not expected to vest.
(s) Income Taxes
Deferred taxes are recognized for the future tax effects of temporary differences between financial and income tax
reporting using tax rates in effect for the years in which the differences are expected to reverse. Given continuing losses in
certain jurisdictions in which the Company operates on a separate return basis, a valuation allowance has been established for
the deferred tax assets in these specific locations. The Company periodically estimates the probable tax obligations using
historical experience in tax jurisdictions and informed judgment. There are inherent uncertainties related to the interpretation of
tax regulations in the jurisdictions in which the Company transacts business. The judgments and estimates made at a point in
time may change based on the outcome of tax audits, as well as changes to, or further interpretations of, regulations. Income tax
expense is adjusted in the period in which these events occur, and these adjustments are included in the Company’s
Consolidated Statements of Income. If such changes take place, there is a risk that the Company’s effective tax rate may
increase or decrease in any period. A company must recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more
likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of
the position. The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest
benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution.
The Company continues to use a portfolio approach to release the income tax effects in accumulated other comprehensive
loss related to pension and postretirement benefits. Under this approach, the income tax effects are released from accumulated
other comprehensive loss based on the pre-tax adjustments to pension liabilities or assets recognized within other
comprehensive income. Any tax effects remaining in accumulated other comprehensive loss are released only when the entire
portfolio of the pension and postretirement benefits is liquidated, sold or extinguished.

(t) Financial Instruments
The Company uses forward foreign exchange contracts and cross-currency swap contracts to manage its exposures to
movements in foreign exchange rates. The Company also uses a combination of cross-currency swap contracts and long-term
debt to manage its exposure to foreign currency risk associated with the Company’s net investment in certain European
subsidiaries. The use of these derivative and nonderivative financial instruments modifies the Company’s exposure to these
risks with the goal of reducing the risk or cost to the Company. The Company does not use derivatives for trading purposes and
is not a party to leveraged derivative contracts.
Depending on the nature of the underlying risk being hedged, these derivative and nonderivative financial instruments are
accounted for either as cash flow, net investment or mark to market hedges against changes in the value of the hedged item.
Derivatives are recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value. The fair value is based upon either market quotes for
actively traded instruments or independent bids for nonexchange traded instruments. The accounting for changes in fair value of
a derivative instrument depends on whether the instrument has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship.
The Company determines whether a derivative instrument meets the criteria for cash flow or net investment hedge accounting
treatment on the date the derivative is executed. Derivatives accounted for as mark to market hedges are not designated as
hedges for accounting purposes.
The Company formally documents its hedge relationships, including identifying the hedging instruments and the hedged
items, as well as its risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking the hedge transaction. This process includes
linking financial instruments to the hedged assets, liabilities, firm commitments, forecasted transactions or net investments.
The Company may be exposed to credit losses in the event of nonperformance by individual counterparties or the entire
group of counterparties to the Company’s derivative contracts. Risk of nonperformance by counterparties is mitigated by
dealing with highly rated counterparties and by diversifying across counterparties.
Cash Flow Hedges
For a cash flow hedge, the Company formally assesses, both at inception and on at least a quarterly basis thereafter,
whether the designated derivative instrument is highly effective in offsetting changes in cash flows of the hedged item. The
change in the fair value of a derivative instrument that is designated and highly effective as a cash flow hedge is recorded as a
deferred gain or loss in the “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” line in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. When the hedged
item affects the income statement, the deferred gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reclassified from AOCI and recorded
on the same line in the Consolidated Statements of Income as the hedged item. The Company does not exclude amounts from
effectiveness testing for cash flow hedges that would require recognition into earnings based on changes in fair value. If it is
determined that a designated derivative instrument ceases to be a highly effective cash flow hedge, or if the anticipated
transaction is no longer likely to occur, the Company discontinues hedge accounting, and any deferred gain or loss is
reclassified from AOCI and recorded on the same line in the Consolidated Statements of Income as the hedged item.
Cash flows from derivatives designated as cash flow hedges are classified in the same category as the item being hedged
in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
Net Investment Hedges
For a net investment hedge, the Company formally assesses, both at inception and on a quarterly basis thereafter, whether
the designated financial instrument is highly effective as an economic hedge of foreign exchange risk associated with the
hedged net investment. The change in the fair value of a derivative instrument or the change in the carrying value of a
nonderivative financial instrument that is designated and highly effective as a net investment hedge is recorded as a deferred
gain or loss in the cumulative translation adjustment component of AOCI, offsetting the translation gain or loss for the net
investment being hedged.
The Company assesses net investment hedge effectiveness and measures net investment hedge results for both derivative
and nonderivative hedging instruments on an after-tax basis. The interest component of a cross-currency swap derivative
contract designated in a highly effective net investment hedge is excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness and is
initially recorded in the cumulative translation adjustment component of AOCI. This excluded component is amortized in
earnings using a systematic and rational method over the term of the cross-currency swap derivative contract and recorded in
the “Interest expense, net” line in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

(amounts in thousands, except per share data)
Financial Statements
If a net investment hedging relationship ceases to be highly effective, the Company discontinues hedge accounting, and
any future change in the fair value of the derivative hedging instrument or future change in the carrying value of the
nonderivative hedging instrument is recorded in the “Other expenses” line in the Consolidated Statements of Income, which is
where the gain or loss on the sale or substantial liquidation of the underlying net investment would be recorded. However, any
deferred gain or loss previously recorded in the cumulative translation adjustment component of AOCI will remain in AOCI
until the hedged net investment is sold or substantially liquidated, at which time the cumulative deferred gain or loss is
reclassified from AOCI and recorded in the “Other expenses” line in the Consolidated Statements of Income.
Cash flows from the periodic and final settlements of the cross-currency swap contracts are reported as cash flows from
investing activities in the Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows because the hedged item is a net investment in foreign
subsidiaries, and the cash paid or received from acquiring or selling the subsidiaries would typically be classified as investing.
Mark to Market Hedges
A derivative instrument whose change in fair value is used to hedge against changes in the value of a hedged item, but
which is not designated as a hedge under the accounting standards, is accounted for as a mark to market hedge. These
derivatives are recorded at fair value in the Consolidated Balance Sheets when the hedged item is recorded as an asset or
liability and then are revalued each accounting period. Changes in the fair value of derivatives accounted for as mark to market
hedges are reported in the “Cost of sales” and “Selling, general and administrative expenses” lines in the Consolidated
Statements of Income.
Cash flows from derivatives not designated as hedges are classified as cash flows from operating activities in the
Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.
(u) Assets and Liabilities Acquired in Business Combinations
Business combinations are accounted for using the purchase method, which requires the Company to allocate the cost of
an acquired business to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities based on their estimated fair values at the acquisition date.
The Company recognizes the excess of an acquired business’ cost over the fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities
as goodwill. Fair values are determined using the income approach based on market participant assumptions focusing on future
cash flow projections and accepted industry standards.
(v) Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Reference Rate Reform
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of
Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting.” In January 2021, the FASB clarified the scope of that guidance with the
issuance of ASU 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform: Scope.” The new accounting rules provide optional expedients and
exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform. In
December 2022, the FASB deferred the expiration date of Topic 848 with the issuance of ASU 2022-06, “Reference Rate
Reform: Deferral of the Sunset Date of Topic 848.” The new accounting rules extend the relief in Topic 848 beyond the
cessation date of USD LIBOR. The new accounting rules must be adopted by the fourth quarter of 2024. The Company is
currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption of the new rules on the Company’s financial condition, results of
operations, cash flows and disclosures.
Business Combinations
In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets
and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers.” The new accounting rules require entities to apply “Revenue from
Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities in a business
combination. The new accounting rules will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2023, including interim periods.
The adoption impact of the new accounting rules will depend on the magnitude of future acquisitions.
Derivatives and Hedging
In March 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-01, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Fair Value Hedging - Portfolio
Layer Method.” The new accounting rules allow entities to expand the use of the portfolio layer method to all financial assets

and designate multiple hedged layers within a single closed portfolio. The new accounting rules also clarify guidance related
to hedge basis adjustments and the related disclosures for these adjustments. The new accounting rules will be effective for the
Company in the first quarter of 2023, including interim periods. The Company does not currently have any fair value hedging
programs that leverage the portfolio layer method, therefore, the Company does not expect the new accounting rules to have an
impact on our near term financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or disclosures.
Supplier Finance Program Obligations
In September 2022, the FASB issued ASU 2022-04, “Liabilities - Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50):
Supplier Finance Program Obligations.” The new accounting rules create certain disclosure requirements for a buyer
Disclosure of
in a
supplier finance program. The new accounting rules require qualitative and quantitative disclosures including key terms
of the program, balance sheet presentation of related amounts, and the obligation amount the buyer has confirmed as valid to the
finance provider, including a rollforward of the obligation. Only the amount of the obligation outstanding is required to be
disclosed in interim periods. The accounting rules do not impact the recognition, measurement, or financial statement
presentation of supplier finance program obligations. The new accounting rules will be effective for the Company in the first
quarter of 2023, including interim periods. While the new accounting rules will not have an impact on our financial condition,
results of operations or cash flows, the Company is currently evaluating the impact the new accounting rules will have on the
disclosures included in the notes to the consolidated financial statements beginning with the first quarter of 2023.

U.S. Sheer Hosiery Business - Continuing Operations
In 2020, the Company determined that there was a triggering event associated with its U.S. Sheer Hosiery reporting unit
due to a significant decline in performance below management’s expectations and loss of a future wholesale sheer hosiery
program. As a result, the Company recorded impairment charges for the full amount of goodwill related to the U.S. Sheer
Hosiery reporting unit of $25,173, which are reflected in the “Selling, general and administrative expenses” line in the
Consolidated Statements of Income in 2020. In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company reached the decision to divest its U.S.
Sheer Hosiery business, including the L’eggs brand, as part of its strategy to streamline its portfolio under its Full Potential plan
and determined that this business met held-for-sale accounting criteria. The related assets and liabilities are presented as held
for sale in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022. The Company recorded a non-cash
charge of $38,364 in the fourth quarter of 2021 to record a valuation allowance against the net assets held for sale to write down
the carrying value of the disposal group to the estimated fair value less costs of disposal. In 2022, the Company recognized a
non-cash gain of $3,535 to adjust the valuation allowance resulting from a decrease in carrying value due to changes in working
capital. These valuation allowance adjustments are reflected in the “Selling, general and administrative expenses” line in the
Consolidated Statements of Income. The operations of the U.S. Sheer Hosiery business are reported in “Other” for all periods
presented in Note “Business Segment Information”. The Company is currently exploring potential purchasers for this business
and expects to complete the sale within the next 12 months.

European Innerwear Business - Discontinued Operations
In the first quarter of 2021, the Company announced that it reached the decision to exit its European Innerwear business as
part of its strategy to streamline its portfolio under its Full Potential plan and determined that this business met held-for-sale and
discontinued operations accounting criteria. Accordingly, the Company began to separately report the results of its European
Innerwear business as discontinued operations in its Consolidated Statements of Income, and to present the related assets and
liabilities as held for sale in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. On November 4, 2021, the Company announced that it had
reached an agreement to sell its European Innerwear business to an affiliate of Regent, L.P. and completed the sale on March 5,
2022. Under the agreement, the purchaser received all the assets and operating liabilities of the European Innerwear business.
The operations of the European Innerwear business were previously reported primarily in the International segment.
Upon meeting the criteria for held-for-sale classification in the first quarter of 2021, which qualified as a triggering event,
the Company performed a full impairment analysis of the disposal group's indefinite-lived intangible assets and goodwill. As a
result of the strategic decision to exit the European Innerwear business, forecasts were revised to include updated market
conditions and the removal of strategic operating decisions that would no longer occur under the Company's ownership. The
revised forecasts indicated impairment of certain indefinite-lived trademarks and license agreements as well as the full goodwill
balance attributable to the European Innerwear business. As a result of this impairment analysis, a non-cash charge of $155,745
was recorded as "Impairment of intangible assets and goodwill" in the summarized discontinued operations financial
information in 2021. In addition, the Company recorded a valuation allowance against the net assets held for sale to write down
the carrying value of the disposal group to the estimated fair value less costs of disposal, resulting in non-cash charges of
$7,253 and $273,995 for the quarter and year ended January 1, 2022, respectively, as "Loss on sale of business and
classification of assets held for sale" in the summarized discontinued operations financial information. The non-cash charge
recorded in the quarter ended January 1, 2022 primarily resulted from changes in working capital balances and foreign
exchange rates. In the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded the final loss on the sale of the European
Innerwear business of $373 primarily resulting from changes in working capital balances and foreign exchange rates.
Additionally, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $7,302 in continuing operations on an indefinite-lived
trademark in 2021 which is reflected in the “Selling, general and administrative expenses” line in the Consolidated Statements
of Income. This charge relates to the full impairment of an indefinite-lived trademark related to a specific brand within the
European Innerwear business that was excluded from the disposal group as it was not marketed for sale.
During the second quarter of 2020, the Company completed a quantitative impairment analysis for certain indefinite-lived
intangible assets as a result of the significant impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on their performance. Based on this analysis,
the Company recorded impairment charges of $20,319 on certain indefinite-lived trademarks and other intangible assets within
the European Innerwear business which are reflected in the “Impairment of intangible assets and goodwill” line in the
summarized discontinued operations financial information in 2020.
The Company has continued certain sales from its supply chain to the European Innerwear business on a transitional basis
after the sale of the business. Under the terms of the Manufacturing and Supply Agreement that was signed as part of closing
the transaction, the Company will provide these services for periods up to 34 months from the closing date of the transaction.
Additionally, the Company entered into a Transitional Services Agreement pursuant to which the Company will provide
transitional services including information technology, human resources, facilities management, and limited finance and
accounting services for periods up to 12 months from the closing date of the transaction. The sales and the related profit are
included in continuing operations in the Consolidated Statements of Income and in “Other” in Note “Business Segment
Information” in all periods presented and have not been eliminated as intercompany transactions in consolidation for the period
when the European Innerwear business was owned by the Company. The related receivables from the European Innerwear
business are included in “Trade accounts receivable, net” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets for all periods presented.

(4) Revenue Recognition
Revenue is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with a customer are satisfied, which occurs at a
point in time, upon either shipment or delivery to the customer. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration the
Company expects to receive in exchange for transferring goods, which includes estimates for variable consideration. Variable
consideration includes trade discounts, rebates, volume-based incentives, cooperative advertising and product returns, which are
offered within contracts between the Company and its customers, employing the practical expedient for contract costs.
Incidental items that are immaterial to the context of the contract are recognized as expense at the transaction date.
The following table presents the Company’s revenues disaggregated by the customer’s method of purchase:

Revenue Sources
Third-Party Brick-and-Mortar Wholesale Revenue
Third-party brick-and-mortar wholesale revenue is primarily generated by sales of the Company’s products to retailers to
support their brick-and-mortar operations. Also included within third-party brick-and-mortar wholesale revenue is royalty
revenue from licensing agreements. The Company earns royalties through license agreements with manufacturers of other
consumer products that incorporate certain of the Company’s brands. The Company accrues revenue earned under these
contracts based upon reported sales from the licensees. Additionally, third-party brick-and-mortar wholesale revenue for the
year ended January 2, 2021 includes $518,309 of revenue from contracts with governments generated from the sale of both
cloth face coverings and gowns for use to help mitigate the spread of the virus during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Consumer-Directed Revenue
Consumer-directed revenue is primarily generated through sales driven directly by the consumer through company-
operated stores and e-commerce platforms, which include both owned sites and the sites of the Company’s retail customers.
(5) Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) was computed by dividing net income (loss) by the number of weighted average shares
of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS was calculated to give effect to all potentially issuable dilutive
shares of common stock using the treasury stock method.

In 2022 and 2020, all potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation because
the Company incurred a net loss for these years and their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
(6) Stock-Based Compensation
The Company established the Omnibus Incentive Plan to award stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock,
restricted stock units, deferred stock units, performance shares and cash to its employees, non-employee directors and
employees of its subsidiaries to promote the interests of the Company, incent performance and retain employees. In April 2020,
the stockholders of the Company approved the Hanesbrands Inc. 2020 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2020 Omnibus Plan”). The
Company satisfies the requirement for common shares for share-based payments to employees pursuant to the 2020 Omnibus
Plan by issuing newly authorized shares. The 2020 Omnibus Plan authorized a total of 11,000 shares of common stock of the
Company for awards granted under the 2020 Omnibus Plan, plus the number of shares of common stock of the Company
available for grant under the predecessor Hanesbrands Inc. Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Prior Plan”) that had not yet been
made subject to awards under the Prior Plan as of the effective date of the 2020 Omnibus Plan. The 2020 Omnibus Plan
authorized 74,220 shares for awards of stock options and restricted stock units, of which 14,033 shares were available for future
grants as of December 31, 2022.
In addition, during 2020, the Company granted stock awards to two newly hired executive officers outside of the 2020
Omnibus Plan in reliance on the employment inducement exemption under the New York Stock Exchange’s Listed Company
Manual Rule 303A.08.
Stock Options
Under the Omnibus Incentive Plan, the exercise price of each stock option equals the closing market price of the
Company’s stock on the date of grant. Options granted vest ratably over three years and can be exercised over a term of 10
years. The fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.
There were no options granted during 2022, 2021 or 2020 under the Omnibus Incentive Plan.
During 2020, the Company granted 250 stock options to a newly hired executive officer outside of the 2020 Omnibus
Plan in reliance on the employment inducement exemption under the New York Stock Exchange’s Listed Company Manual
Rule 303A.08. The exercise price of each stock option equals either the closing market price of the Company’s stock on the
date of grant or the closing market price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant multiplied by a specified exercise
premium factor applicable to each option. Options granted vest ratably over three years and can be exercised over a term of 10
years. The fair value of each option grant was estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The

The dividend yield assumption is based on the Company’s historical dividend payments. The risk-free rate of interest is
based on the yield of a zero-coupon U.S. Treasury bond on the date the award is granted having a maturity approximately equal
to the expected term of the award. The expected volatility, expected term and forfeitures are estimated based on the historical
experience of the Company’s stock price, exercise experience and employee turnover data, respectively.

Stock Unit Awards
Under the Omnibus Incentive Plan, restricted stock units (“RSUs”) of the Company’s stock are granted to certain
Company non-employee directors and employees to incent performance and retention over periods of one to three years. Upon
vesting, the RSUs are converted into shares of the Company’s common stock on a one-for-one basis and issued to the grantees.
Some RSUs which have been granted under the Omnibus Incentive Plan vest upon continued future service to the Company,
while others also have a performanced-based vesting feature. 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.
During 2020, the Company granted 225 RSUs to two newly hired executive officers outside of the 2020 Omnibus Plan in
reliance on the employment inducement exemption under the New York Stock Exchange’s Listed Company Manual Rule
303A.08. These grants included 119 non-performanced based awards which vest upon continued future service to the Company
and 106 performanced-based awards which have a performanced-based vesting feature. These RSUs are granted to induce
employment and incent performance and retention over periods of two to three years. Upon vesting, the RSUs are converted
into shares of the Company’s common stock on a one-for-one basis and issued to the grantees. 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 total fair value of shares vested during 2022, 2021 and 2020 was $13,199, $25,201 and $15,325, respectively. Certain
participants elected to defer receipt of shares earned upon vesting.
In addition to granting RSUs that vest solely upon continued future service to the Company, the Company also grants
performanced-based RSUs where the number of shares of the Company’s common stock that will be received upon vesting
range from 0% to 200% of the number of units granted based on the Company’s achievement of certain performance metrics.
These performanced-based stock awards, which are included in the table above, represent awards that are earned based on
future performance and service. As reported in the above table, the number of performanced-based RSUs granted each year
represents the initial units granted on the date of grant plus or minus any adjustment for units that were earned based on the
final achievement of the respective performance thresholds.
For all share-based payments under the Omnibus Incentive Plan and outside the Omnibus Incentive Plan in 2020, the
Company recognized compensation expense and deferred tax benefits as follows:

Charges to the allowance for doubtful accounts are reflected in the “Selling, general and administrative expenses” line and
charges to the allowance for customer chargebacks and other customer deductions are primarily reflected as a reduction in the
“Net sales” line in the Consolidated Statements of Income. Deductions and write-offs, which do not increase or decrease
income, represent write-offs of previously reserved accounts receivable and allowed customer chargebacks and deductions
against gross accounts receivable.
Sales of Accounts Receivable
The Company has entered into agreements to sell selected trade accounts receivable to financial institutions based on
programs offered by certain of the Company’s largest customers as well as programs sponsored by the Company. As a result of
the strong credit worthiness of these customers, the discount taken on most of these programs is less than the marginal
borrowing rate on the Company’s variable rate credit facilities. In all agreements, after the sale, the Company does not retain
any beneficial interests in the receivables. The applicable financial institution services and collects the accounts receivable
directly from the customer for programs offered by the Company’s customers. For programs sponsored by the Company, the
Company maintains continued involvement as the servicer to collect the accounts receivable from the customer and remit
payment to the financial institution. Net proceeds of these accounts receivable sale programs are recognized in the Consolidated
Statements of Cash Flows as part of operating cash flows.
The Company recognized total funding fees of $8,823, $3,312 and $4,932 in 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively, for sales
of accounts receivable to financial institutions in the “Other expenses” line in the Consolidated Statements of Income.

In June of 2022, the Company purchased the Champion trademark for footwear in the United States, Puerto Rico and
Canada from Keds, LLC (“KEDS”) for $102,500. The trademark was recorded in “Trademarks and other identifiable
intangibles, net” line in the Consolidated Balance Sheets and has an indefinite life. The Company previously licensed the
Champion trademark for footwear in these locations. The purchase of the trademark was part of an agreement with KEDS
settling litigation between the two parties and is another step forward in the Company’s Full Potential plan of growing the
global Champion brand.
In connection with the annual impairment testing performed in the third quarter of 2022, the Company performed a
quantitative assessment, utilizing an income approach to estimate the fair value of each indefinite-lived intangible asset. The
most significant assumptions include the weighted average cost of capital, revenue growth rate, terminal growth rate and
operating profit margin, all of which are used to estimate the fair value of the indefinite-lived intangible assets. The tests
indicated the indefinite-lived intangible assets had fair values that exceeded their carrying values, and no impairment of
trademarks or other identifiable intangible assets was identified as a result of the annual testing conducted in 2022.
In the first quarter of 2021, the Company recorded an impairment charge of $7,302 to fully impair an indefinite-lived
trademark related to a specific brand within the European Innerwear business that was excluded from the disposal group as it
was not marketed for sale. This impairment charge is reflected in the “Selling, general and administrative expenses” line in the
Consolidated Statements of Income for the year ended January 1, 2022.
The amortization expense in continuing operations for intangible assets subject to amortization was $29,973, $31,069 and
$30,858 for 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The estimated amortization expense for the next five years, assuming no change
in the estimated useful lives of identifiable intangible assets or changes in foreign exchange rates is as follows: $29,728 in 2023,
$25,338 in 2024, $21,602 in 2025, $12,234 in 2026 and $5,261 in 2027.

In connection with the annual goodwill impairment testing performed during the third quarter of 2022, the Company
performed a quantitative assessment utilizing an income approach to estimate the fair value of each reporting unit. The most
significant assumptions include the weighted average cost of capital, revenue growth rate, terminal growth rate and operating
profit margin, all of which are used to estimate the fair value of the reporting units. The tests indicated the reporting units had
fair values that exceeded their carrying values, and no impairment of goodwill was identified as a result of the annual testing
conducted in 2022.
In 2020, the Company determined that there was a triggering event associated with its U.S. Sheer Hosiery reporting unit
due to a significant decline in performance below management’s expectations and loss of a future wholesale sheer hosiery
program. As a result, the Company recorded impairment charges for the full amount of goodwill related to the U.S. Sheer
Hosiery reporting unit of $25,173, which are reflected in the “Selling, general and administrative expenses” line in the
Consolidated Statements of Income in 2020. In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company reached the decision to divest its U.S.
Sheer Hosiery business, including the L’eggs brand, as part of its strategy to streamline its portfolio under its Full Potential
plan. See Note “Assets and Liabilities Held for Sale” for additional information.

As of December 31, 2022 the Company’s primary financing arrangements were the senior secured credit facility (the
“Senior Secured Credit Facility”), 4.875% senior notes (the “4.875% Senior Notes”), 4.625% senior notes (the “4.625% Senior
Notes”), 3.5% senior notes (the “3.5% Senior Notes”) and the accounts receivable securitization facility (the “ARS Facility”).
The outstanding balances at December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022 are reported in the “Accounts Receivable Securitization
Facility”, “Current portion of long-term debt” and “Long-term debt” lines in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Company intends to refinance certain of its indebtedness with upcoming maturities, including an aggregate of
approximately $1,435,275 of its 4.625% Senior Notes due in May 2024 and its 3.5% Senior Notes due in June 2024 in the first
quarter of 2023. Any such refinancings will depend on market conditions and other relevant factors and there can be no
assurance such refinancings will be pursued or completed.
Senior Secured Credit Facility
In March 2021, the Company repaid the outstanding balance of the Term Loan B which consisted of a required excess
cash flow prepayment of $238,936 and a voluntary prepayment of $61,064.
In November 2021, the Company amended and restated its Senior Secured Credit Facility to provide for potential
committed aggregate borrowings of up to $2,000,000, consisting of a $1,000,000 Revolving Loan Facility and a $1,000,000
Term Loan Facility, to extend the maturity date of the Senior Secured Credit Facility from December 2022 to November 2026
and to refinance the Australian Revolving Loan Facility that was originally entered into in July 2016 under the Company’s
Syndicated Facility as a joinder to the Senior Secured Credit Facility. The Australian Revolving Loan Facility, which was
previously amended in July 2021 to extend the maturity date to July 2022, was incorporated into the $1,000,000 Revolving
Loan Facility on the date the amendment to the Senior Secured Credit Facility became effective.
The $1,000,000 Revolving Loan Facility, a portion of which is available to be borrowed in Euros or Australian dollars, is
used for general corporate purposes and working capital needs. All borrowings under the Revolving Loan Facility may be
repaid and reborrowed from time to time without penalty but must be repaid in full upon maturity.
The proceeds of the $1,000,000 Term Loan Facility were used to refinance the Term Loan A, which resulted in an
increase in term loan borrowings of $390,625 in November 2021 when the amendment became effective, and to redeem,
together with cash on hand, the 5.375% Senior Notes. Outstanding borrowings under the Term Loan A are repayable in equal
quarterly installments of the following amounts per annum, calculated as a percentage of the original principal amount: 2.5% in
years one and two, 5.0% in years three and four and 7.5% in year five, with the remainder to be repaid at maturity. The
Company is required to prepay any outstanding amounts in connection with (i) the incurrence of certain indebtedness and (ii)
non-ordinary course asset sales or other dispositions (including as a result of casualty or condemnation) that exceed certain
thresholds in any period of twelve-consecutive months, with customary reinvestment provisions.
In 2021, redemption of the 5.375% Senior Notes required payment of a make-whole premium of $34,840 and the

(amounts in thousands, except per share data)
redemption of the 5.375% Senior Notes and the refinancing of the Senior Secured Credit Facility resulted in a non-cash charge
of $8,899 for the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs. Additionally, in 2021, the Company incurred fees of $9,729
related to the refinancing, of which $1,960 was charged to expense and $7,769 was capitalized as debt issuance costs that are
being amortized to interest expense over the remaining term of the Senior Secured Credit Facility. The make-whole premium
payment, debt issuance costs write-off and fees charged to expense resulted in a one-time charge of $45,699, which is reported
in the “Other expenses” line in the Consolidated Statements of Income in 2021. The cash payments for the make-whole
premium and fees capitalized as debt issuance costs are reported in “Net cash from financing activities” in the Consolidated
Statements of Cash Flows in 2021.
Prior to the amendments of the Senior Secured Credit Facility in November 2022 and in February 2023 described below,
borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facility bear interest at a variable rate based on, at the Company’s option, either
LIBOR or an alternative base rate (both as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facility), or the appropriate LIBOR benchmark
for non-U.S. dollar borrowings, plus, in each case, an applicable margin. The applicable margin is based on the Company’s
leverage ratio (as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facility), ranging from a maximum of 1.75% in the case of LIBOR-
based loans and 0.75% in the case of base rate loans if the Company’s leverage ratio is greater than or equal to 4.50 to 1.00, and
steps down in varying increments to a minimum of 1.00% in the case of LIBOR-based loans and 0.00% in the case of base rate
loans if the Company’s leverage ratio is less than 2.25 to 1.00. The Senior Secured Credit Facility provides a mechanism for
determining an alternative rate of interest in the event that the LIBOR or LIBOR benchmark rates cease to be provided or are no
longer representative of the underlying market and economic reality they are intended to measure and, in conjunction with the
November 2022 amendment described below, the Company transitioned the Senior Secured Credit Facility from the London
Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”). The applicable margin for SOFR-based
loans are the same as LIBOR-based loans prior to the amendment of the Senior Secured Credit Facility in November 2022. The
amendments of the Senior Secured Credit Facility in November 2022 and in February 2023 added two new tiers to the top of
the pricing grid for the leverage ratio which resulted in an increase in the maximum applicable margin to 2.25% in the case of
SOFR-based loans and 1.25% in the case of base rate loans if the Company’s leverage ratio is greater than or equal to 5.50 to
1.00 during the covenant relief period and will revert back to the original ranges subsequent to the covenant relief period. The
applicable margin was 1.50% plus a 10 basis points credit spread adjustment for SOFR-based loans and 0.50% for base rate
loans as of December 31, 2022. Interest is payable quarterly for base rate loans, but the Company has the option to pay interest
on a more frequent, or less frequent, basis for LIBOR-based loans.
The commitment fee for the unused portion of the Revolving Loan Facility is based on the Company’s leverage ratio,
prior to the amendments of the Senior Secured Credit Facility in November 2022 and in February 2023 described below, (as
defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facility), ranging from a maximum of 0.25% when the leverage ratio is greater than or
equal to 4.50 to 1.00, and will step down in varying increments to a minimum of 0.15% when the leverage ratio is less than 2.25
to 1.00. The amendments of the Senior Secured Credit Facility in November 2022 and in February 2023 as described below
added two new tiers to the top of the pricing grid for the leverage ratio which resulted in an increase in the maximum
commitment fee to 0.35% if the Company’s leverage ratio is greater than or equal to 5.50 to 1.00 during the covenant relief
period and will revert back to the original ranges subsequent to the covenant relief period. The commitment fee was 0.25% as
of December 31, 2022.
A portion of the Revolving Loan Facility is available for the issuances of letters of credit and the making of swingline
loans, and any such issuance of letters of credit or making of a swingline loan will reduce the amount available under the
Revolving Loan Facility. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $642,546 of borrowing availability under the Revolving
Loan Facility after taking into account $352,500 of USD revolver loans and $4,954 of standby and trade letters of credit issued
and outstanding under this facility.
At the Company’s option, it may add one or more tranches of term loans or increase the commitments under the
Revolving Loan Facility so long as certain conditions are satisfied, including, among others, that no default or event of default
is in existence, the Company is in pro forma compliance with the financial covenants set forth in the Senior Secured Credit
Facility and the Company’s senior secured leverage ratio is not greater than 3.50 to 1.00 on a pro forma basis after giving effect
to the incurrence of such indebtedness.
The Senior Secured Credit Facility is guaranteed by substantially all of the Company’s existing and future direct and
indirect U.S. subsidiaries and certain foreign subsidiaries, with certain customary or agreed-upon exceptions for certain
subsidiaries. The Senior Secured Credit Facility is secured by the equity interests of substantially all of the Company’s direct

and indirect U.S. subsidiaries and 65% of the voting securities of certain first tier foreign subsidiaries and substantially all
present and future property and assets of the Company and each guarantor, except for certain enumerated interests.
The Senior Secured Credit Facility requires the Company to comply with customary affirmative, negative and financial
covenants. The financial covenants include a minimum interest coverage ratio and a maximum total debt to EBITDA (earnings
before interest, income taxes, depreciation expense and amortization, as computed pursuant to the Senior Secured Credit
Facility), or leverage ratio, each of which is defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facility. The method of calculating all of the
components used in the covenants, is included in the Senior Secured Credit Facility.
In November 2022 and in February 2023, given the economic conditions and the associated impact on earnings, the
Company amended the credit agreement governing its Senior Secured Credit Facility to modify the financial covenants in order
to avoid a potential covenant violation and to provide operating flexibility. The amendments effect changes to certain
provisions and covenants under the Senior Secured Credit Facility during the period beginning with the fiscal quarter ended
December 31, 2022 and continuing through the fiscal quarter ending March 30, 2024 or such earlier date as we may elect (such
period of time, the “Covenant Relief Period”), including: (a) an increase in the maximum consolidated net total leverage ratio to
5.25 to 1.00 for the quarter ended December 31, 2022, 6.75 to 1.00 for the quarter ending April 1, 2023, 7.25 to 1.00 for the
quarter ending July 1, 2023, 6.75 to 1.00 for the quarter ending September 30, 2023, 5.25 to 1.00 for the quarter ending
December 30, 2023, and 5.00 to 1.00 for the quarter ending March 30, 2024, and reverting back to 4.50 to 1.00 for each quarter
after the Covenant Relief Period has ended; (b) a reduction of the minimum interest coverage ratio from 3.00 to 1.00 to 2.60 to
1.00 for the quarter ended December 31, 2022 and the quarter ending April 1, 2023, 2.00 to 1.00 for the quarters ending July 1,
2023, September 30, 2023 and December 30, 2023, and 2.50 to 1.00 for the quarter ending March 30, 2024, with an increase to
2.75 to 1.00 for each quarter after the Covenant Relief Period has ended; (c) suspension of restricted payments in connection
with share repurchases; (d) suspension of restricted payments pursuant to the Company's leverage ratio-based and "Available
Amount" restricted payments baskets, (e) a cap on annual dividend payments of $75,000, which will revert back to the greater
of (x) $350,000 and (y) 8.0% of Total Tangible Assets after the Covenant Relief Period has ended; (f) suspension of the
Company’s “Available Amount” basket for investments in foreign subsidiaries and other investments; (g) suspension of the
0.50 to 1.00 increase in the maximum permitted consolidated net total leverage ratio resulting from a material permitted
acquisition; and (h) the addition of two new tiers to the top of the pricing grid if the maximum consolidated net total leverage
ratio exceeds 5.00 to 1.00 and 5.50 to 1.00. In conjunction with the Second Amendment, we transitioned the Senior Secured
Credit Facility from the London Interbank Offered Rate to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate with a 10 basis points credit
spread adjustment already included in the Senior Secured Credit Facility. In addition, the Third Amendment limits the
Company's ability to incur incremental secured indebtedness during the Covenant Relief Period to $1,750,000, subject to
compliance with the financial covenants.
The Senior Secured Credit Facility contains customary events of default, including nonpayment of principal when due;
nonpayment of interest, fees or other amounts after stated grace period; material inaccuracy of representations and warranties;
violations of covenants; certain bankruptcies and liquidations; any cross-default to material indebtedness; certain material
judgments; certain events related to the ERISA, actual or asserted invalidity of any guarantee, security document or
subordination provision or non-perfection of security interest, and a change in control (as defined in the Senior Secured Credit
Facility).
As of December 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants related to the Senior Secured
Credit Facility. The Company expects to maintain compliance with its financial covenants, as amended in February 2023, for at
least one year from the issuance of these financial statements based on its current expectations and forecasts. If economic
conditions worsen and the Company’s earnings and operating cash flows do not start to recover as currently estimated by
management, this could impact the Company’s ability to maintain compliance with its amended financial covenants and require
the Company to seek additional amendments to its Senior Secured Credit Facility. If the Company is not able to obtain such
necessary additional amendments, this would lead to an event of default and, if not cured timely, its lenders could require the
Company to repay its outstanding debt. In that situation, the Company may not be able to raise sufficient debt or equity capital,
or divest assets, to refinance or repay the lenders.
5.375% Senior Notes
In May 2020, the Company issued $700,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.375% Senior Notes, with interest payable on
May 15 and November 15 of each year. The 5.375% Senior Notes, which were scheduled to mature in May 2025, were
redeemed in full in November 2021 in connection with the refinancing of the Senior Secured Credit Facility.

4.875% Senior Notes and 4.625% Senior Notes
In May 2016, the Company issued $900,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.875% Senior Notes and $900,000 aggregate
principal amount of 4.625% Senior Notes (collectively, the “USD Senior Notes”), with interest payable on May 15 and
November 15 of each year. The 4.875% Senior Notes will mature in May 2026 and the 4.625% Senior Notes will mature in
May 2024. The issuance of the USD Senior Notes resulted in net proceeds of approximately $1,773,000, which were used to
redeem in full the Company’s 6.375% Senior Notes and reduce the outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Loan Facility.
On or after February 15, 2026, in the case of the 4.875% Senior Notes, and February 15, 2024, in the case of the 4.625%
Senior Notes, the Company may redeem all or a portion of such notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus any
accrued and unpaid interest.
The USD Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed,
subject to certain exceptions, by substantially all of the Company’s current domestic subsidiaries. The indenture governing the
USD Senior Notes limits the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur liens, enter into certain sale and leaseback
transactions and consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of their assets. The indenture also contains customary events
of default which include (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods), among others, nonpayment of principal
or interest; breach of other agreements in such indenture; failure to pay certain other indebtedness; failure to pay certain final
judgments; failure of certain guarantees to be enforceable; and certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency.
The USD Senior Notes were issued in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act and do not require
disclosure of separate financial information for the guarantor subsidiaries.
3.5% Senior Notes
In June 2016, the Company issued €500,000 aggregate principal amount of 3.5% Senior Notes, with interest payable on
June 15 and December 15 of each year. The 3.5% Senior Notes will mature in June 2024. The issuance of the 3.5% Senior
Notes resulted in net proceeds of approximately €492,500, which were used to fund a portion of the acquisition of Champion
Europe and Hanes Australasia.
On or after March 15, 2024, the Company may redeem all or a portion of the 3.5% Senior Notes at a price equal to 100%
of the principal amount, plus any accrued and unpaid interest. The Company may also redeem all, but not less than all, of the
3.5% Senior Notes upon the occurrence of certain changes in applicable tax law.
The 3.5% Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed,
subject to certain exceptions, by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries under the Company’s Senior Secured Credit
Facility. The indenture governing the 3.5% Senior Notes limits the ability of the Company and other guarantors to incur certain
liens, enter into certain sale and leaseback transactions and consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of their assets. The
indenture also contains customary events of default which include (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure
periods), among others, nonpayment of principal or interest; breach of other agreements in the indenture; failure to pay certain
other indebtedness; certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization; failure to pay certain final judgments; and
failure of certain guarantees to be enforceable.
The 3.5% Senior Notes were issued in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act and do not require

ARS Facility
Borrowings under the ARS Facility, which was entered into in November 2007, are permitted only to the extent that the
face value of the receivables in the collateral pool, net of applicable concentrations, reserves and other deductions, exceeds the
outstanding loans and are also subject to a quarterly fluctuating facility limit, which is not to exceed $225,000 (previously
$175,000) resulting from the Company’s amendment of the facility in June 2022, which also extended the maturity date to June
2023. Additionally, the amendment changed the Company’s interest rate option as defined in the ARS Facility from the rate
announced from time to time by PNC Bank, N.A. as its prime rate or the LIBOR to the rate announced from time to time by
PNC Bank, N.A. as its prime rate or the SOFR and increased certain receivables to the pledged collateral pool for the facility.
The Company’s maximum borrowing capacity under the ARS Facility was $222,693 as of December 31, 2022. The Company
had $13,193 of borrowing availability under the ARS Facility at December 31, 2022.
Under the terms of the ARS Facility, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries sell or otherwise assign, on an ongoing
basis, certain domestic trade receivables to HBI Receivables LLC (“Receivables LLC”), a wholly owned bankruptcy-remote
subsidiary that in turn pledges the trade receivables to secure the borrowings, which are funded through conduits and financial
institutions that are not affiliated with the Company. Funding under the ARS Facility is received either from conduits party to
the ARS Facility through the issuance of commercial paper in the short-term market or through committed bank purchasers.
The assets and liabilities of Receivables LLC are fully reflected on the Consolidated Balance Sheets, and the securitization is
treated as a secured borrowing by Receivables LLC from the third-party conduits and financial institutions party thereto for
accounting purposes, but the assets of Receivables LLC will be used solely to satisfy the creditors of Receivables LLC, not the
Company’s other creditors. The borrowings under the ARS Facility remain outstanding throughout the term of the agreement
subject to Receivables LLC maintaining sufficient eligible receivables, by continuing to acquire trade receivables from the
Company and certain of its subsidiaries, unless an event of default occurs.
Availability of funding under the ARS Facility depends primarily upon the eligible outstanding receivables balance. The
outstanding balance under the ARS Facility is reported on the Consolidated Balance Sheets in the line “Accounts Receivable
Securitization Facility.” In the case of any creditors party to the ARS Facility that are conduits, the yield on the commercial
paper, which is the conduits’ cost to issue the commercial paper plus certain dealer fees, is considered a financing cost and is
included in the “Interest expense, net” line in the Consolidated Statements of Income. In the case of any creditors party to the
ARS Facility that are committed bank purchasers, the interest rate would be payable at the Company’s option at the rate
announced from time to time by PNC Bank, N.A. as its prime rate or at the SOFR (as defined in the ARS Facility) plus the
applicable margin in effect from time to time. If the SOFR (as defined in the ARS Facility) is unavailable or otherwise does not
accurately reflect the costs to these creditors related to the borrowings, the interest rate would generally default to the prime
rate. These amounts are also considered financing costs and are included in the “Interest expense, net” line in the Consolidated
Statements of Income. In addition, Receivables LLC is required to make certain indemnity and other payments to a conduit
purchaser, a committed purchaser, or certain entities that provide funding to or are affiliated with them, including in the event
that assets and liabilities of a conduit purchaser subject to the ARS Facility are consolidated for financial and/or regulatory
accounting purposes with certain other entities.
The ARS Facility contains customary events of default and requires the Company to maintain the same interest coverage
ratio and leverage ratio contained from time to time in the Senior Secured Credit Facility, provided that any changes to such
covenants will only be applicable for purposes of the ARS Facility if approved by the managing agents or their affiliates. As of
December 31, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants.
Other
The Company had $32,266 of borrowing availability under other international credit facilities after taking into account
outstanding borrowings and letters of credit outstanding under the applicable facilities at December 31, 2022.
Future Principal Payments
Future principal payments for all of the facilities described above are as follows: $247,000 due in 2023, $1,485,275 due in
2024, $62,500 due in 2025, and $2,077,500 due in 2026.

Cash Paid for Interest
Total cash paid for interest related to debt in 2022, 2021 and 2020 was $150,452, $161,202 and $157,094, respectively.
Debt Issuance Costs
During 2022, 2021 and 2020, the Company paid $3,159, $8,346 and $15,010, respectively, in capitalized debt issuance
costs related to the Company’s financing arrangements within continuing operations. Debt issuance costs are amortized to
interest expense over the respective lives of the debt instruments, which range from one to 10 years. As of December 31, 2022,
the net carrying value of unamortized debt issuance costs for the revolving loan facilities, which is included in “Other
noncurrent assets” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets, was $6,831 and the net carrying value of unamortized debt issuance
costs for the remainder of the Company’s debt, which is included in “Long-term debt” in the Consolidated Balance Sheets was
$13,198. The Company’s debt issuance cost amortization in continuing operations was $7,300, $12,305 and $11,349 in 2022,
2021 and 2020, respectively.
(13) Defined Benefit Pension Plans
At December 31, 2022, the Company’s pension plans consisted of the U.S. pension plans, which includes the
Hanesbrands Inc. Legacy Pension Plan and the Hanesbrands Inc. Pension Plan (together, the “U.S. Pension Plans”), various
nonqualified retirement plans and international plans, which include certain defined benefit plans acquired in connection with
the purchases of Champion Europe and Hanes Australasia. Benefits under the U.S Pension Plans were frozen effective
December 31, 2005. Effective December 1, 2022, the Company spun-off the majority of participants in the Hanesbrands Inc.
Pension Plan into a new, separate plan, the Hanesbrands Inc. Legacy Pension Plan. A small number of participants remained in
the Hanesbrands Inc. Pension Plan, representing approximately 1% of the total participants and 1% of the total projected benefit
obligation.

(a) Measurement Date and Assumptions
A December 31 measurement date is used to value plan assets and obligations for the pension plans. In determining the
discount rate, the Company utilizes a full yield curve approach in the calculation of the plan obligation and interest cost and
service cost components of net periodic benefit cost. The specific spot rates along the yield curve are applied to the relevant
projected cash flows, and single equivalent discount rates are shown for disclosure purposes. The expected long-term rate of
return on plan assets was based on the Company’s investment policy target allocation of the asset portfolio among various asset
classes and the expected real returns of each asset class over various periods of time. The weighted average actuarial
assumptions used in measuring the net periodic benefit cost and plan obligations for the periods presented were as follows:

The Company’s asset strategy and primary investment objective are to maximize the principal value of the plan assets to
meet current and future benefit obligations to plan participants and their beneficiaries. To accomplish this goal, the assets of the
plan are broadly diversified to protect against large investment losses and to reduce the likelihood of excessive volatility of
returns. Diversification of assets is achieved through strategic allocations to various asset classes, as well as various investment
styles within these asset classes, and by retaining multiple, third-party investment management firms with complementary
investment styles and philosophies to implement these allocations. The Company has established a target asset allocation based
upon analysis of risk/return trade-offs and correlations of asset mixes given long-term historical data, prospective capital market
returns and forecasted liabilities of the plans. The target asset allocation approximates the actual asset allocation as of
December 31, 2022. In addition to volatility protection, diversification enables the assets of the plan the best opportunity to
provide adequate returns in order to meet the Company’s investment return objectives. These objectives include, over a rolling
five-year period, to achieve a total return that exceeds the required actuarial rate of return for the plan and to outperform a
passive portfolio, consisting of a similar asset allocation.
The Company utilizes market data or assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the pension plan assets.
The Level 1 assets consisted primarily of certain U.S. equity securities, certain foreign equity securities, certain debt securities

The Company has no required cash contribution to its U.S. Pension Plans in 2023 based on a preliminary calculation by
its actuary. The Company made no cash contributions to its U.S. Pension Plans in 2022. Prior to the plan spin-off described
above, on January 4, 2021, the Company made a contribution of $40,000 to the U.S. Pension Plans.
(c) Nonretirement Postemployment Benefit Plans

substance nonretirement postemployment benefit plans, which are future liabilities funded through future operational results of
the Company. However, for purposes of consolidation, the Company is including these plans within the defined benefit
reporting. At December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022, the total amounts accrued for these plans were $871 and $1,171,
respectively and the total expense was $9, $8 and $16 for 2022, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

In 2020, the Company continued to analyze the impacts of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”) and recently issued regulations
that have been published to help taxpayers interpret and apply the legislation. As a result of its analysis, the Company changed its
estimate of the tax liability due in connection with the one-time mandatory transition tax and recognized a $4,668 income tax benefit in
2021 and a $38,315 income tax benefit in 2020.
(2) During the year ending January 2, 2021, the Company recorded $49,082 of tax expense due to recapture of previous net operating
losses created by statutory impairment. This amount is offset in the change in valuation allowance section of the rate reconciliation.
During the year ending December 31, 2022, the Company recorded a deferred tax liability related to tax impairments of subsidiary
stock in Switzerland which created a net operating loss carryforward. Pursuant to Swiss tax law, the loss created is subject to recapture
for which a deferred tax liability was recorded in excess of the deferred tax asset.

In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some
portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the
generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management
considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax planning strategies in
making this assessment. Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for future taxable income over the
periods which the deferred tax assets are deductible, the Company believes it is more likely than not it will realize the benefits
of these deductible differences, net of the existing valuation allowances.

Charges to other accounts include the effects of foreign currency translation, purchase accounting adjustments and changes to valuation
allowances as a result of intraperiod tax allocations.
As of December 31, 2022, the valuation allowance for deferred tax assets was $626,540, made up of $306,743 for foreign
loss carryforwards, $21,232 for other foreign deferred tax assets, $63,619 for federal and state operating loss carryforwards, and
$234,946 for other federal and state deferred tax assets. The net change in the total valuation allowance for 2022 was $320,319,
which relates to an increase of $24,172 for foreign loss carryforwards, an increase of $9,166 for other foreign deferred tax
assets, an increase of $52,035 for federal and state operating loss carryforwards and an increase of $234,946 for other federal
and state deferred tax assets.
The domestic net increase reflects a full valuation allowance recorded against federal and state deferred tax assets in 2022.
As of December 31, 2022, the Company concluded that, based on its evaluation of all available positive and negative evidence,
its U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets were no longer more likely than not realizable. In making this determination, the
Company evaluated positive evidence, including its projections of future taxable income which demonstrate a long-term return
to profitability in the U.S., and negative evidence, including recent tax losses incurred and expected near term tax losses in
connection with its domestic operations and the lack of sufficient taxable temporary differences expected to reverse in future
periods, and determined that the negative evidence outweighed the positive.
At December 31, 2022, the Company had gross foreign net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $1,912,611 (on
a tax return basis) which are subject to expiration as follows:

At December 31, 2022, the Company had domestic tax credit carryforwards totaling $10,859, which expire beginning
after 2022.
At December 31, 2022, the Company had gross federal and state interest carryforwards of approximately $209,536 and
$151,718 (on a tax return basis), respectively, which carry forward indefinitely.
At December 31, 2022, the Company had gross federal and state net operating loss carryforwards of approximately
$173,305 and $1,018,011 (on a tax return basis), respectively, which expire beginning after 2022.
During 2022, the Company recorded $696,028 of additional foreign net operating losses due to tax-deductible
impairments in Switzerland and Luxembourg. These losses are subject to recapture in Switzerland and Luxembourg such that
they will be taxable in a future year, therefore deferred tax liabilities were recorded. The Company believes it is reasonably
possible that the deferred tax liability in Switzerland will reverse within the next twelve months due to expected actions by the
Company in 2023.

(amounts in thousands, except per share data)
The Company has determined that a portion of the Company’s unremitted foreign earnings as of December 31, 2022,
totaling approximately $269,019, are not permanently reinvested. The remainder of the Company’s foreign earnings will
continue to be permanently reinvested to fund working capital requirements and operations abroad. As of December 31, 2022,
the Company has accrued $26,128 of income taxes with respect to the $269,019 of foreign earnings the Company intends to
remit in the future. These income tax effects include U.S. federal, state, foreign and withholding tax implications in accordance
with the planned remittance of such foreign earnings. An estimate of income tax costs that may be incurred if the permanently
reinvested portion of unremitted foreign earnings were in fact remitted is impractical to calculate.
In 2022, 2021, and 2020, the Company recognized reductions of unrecognized tax benefits for tax positions of prior years
of $311, $12,599, and $18,385, respectively. In 2022, 2021, and 2020, income tax benefits recognized in connection with the
expiration of statutes of limitations were $7,191, $147, and $16,655, respectively. The Company believes it is reasonably
possible that the amount of unrecognized tax benefits may decrease by $3,267 within the next 12 months due to expirations in
statutes of limitations.
A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits is as follows:

At December 31, 2022, the balance of the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits, which would, if recognized, affect the
Company’s annual effective tax rate was $28,444. The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to
income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company recognized $81, $933 and $(5,206) in 2022, 2021 and 2020,
respectively, for interest and penalties classified as income tax expense (benefit) in the Consolidated Statements of Income. At
December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022, the Company had a total of $6,303 and $5,865, respectively, of interest and penalties
accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits.
The Company files U.S. federal income tax returns, as well as separate and combined income tax returns in numerous
state and foreign jurisdictions. The Company remains subject to U.S. Federal tax examinations for tax years 2017 through 2022.
The Company is also subject to examination by various state and international tax authorities. The tax years subject to
examination vary by jurisdiction. The Company regularly assesses the outcomes of both ongoing and future examinations for
the current or prior years to ensure the Company’s provision for income taxes is sufficient. The Company recognizes liabilities
based on estimates of whether additional taxes will be due and believes its reserves are adequate in relation to any potential
assessments. The outcome of any one examination, some of which may conclude during the next 12 months, is not expected to
have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.

Financial Statements
(15) Commitments and Contingencies
The Company is a party to various pending legal proceedings, claims and environmental actions by government agencies.
In accordance with the accounting rules for contingencies, the Company records a provision with respect to a claim, suit,
investigation or proceeding when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount of the loss can reasonably be
estimated. Any provisions are reviewed at least quarterly and are adjusted to reflect the impact and status of settlements,
rulings, advice of counsel and other information pertinent to the particular matter. The recorded liabilities for these items were
not material to the consolidated financial statements of the Company in any of the years presented. Although the outcome of
such items cannot be determined with certainty, the Company’s legal counsel and management are of the opinion that the final
outcome of these matters will not have a material adverse impact on the consolidated financial position, results of operations or
liquidity.
Purchase Commitments
In the ordinary course of business, the Company has entered into purchase commitments for raw materials, production and
finished goods. These agreements, typically with terms ending within a year, require total payments of $403,316 in 2023,
$6,219 in 2024 and $6,840 in 2025.
License Agreements
The Company is party to several royalty-bearing license agreements for the use of third-party trademarks in certain of its
products. The license agreements typically require a minimum guarantee to be paid either at the commencement of the
agreement, by a designated date during the term of the agreement or by the end of the agreement period. When payments are
made in advance of when they are due, the Company records a prepayment and amortizes the expense in the “Cost of sales” line
in the Consolidated Statements of Income uniformly over the guaranteed period. For guarantees required to be paid at the
completion of the agreement, royalties are expensed through the “Cost of sales” line in the Consolidated Statements of Income
as the related sales are made. The Company has reviewed all license agreements and has concluded that there are no liabilities
recorded at inception of the agreements.
During 2022, 2021 and 2020, the Company incurred royalty expense of approximately $103,204, $100,281 and $72,775,
respectively.
Minimum amounts due under the license agreements are approximately $66,215 in 2023, $49,117 in 2024, $29,190 in
2025, $26,190 in 2026, $18,379 in 2027 and $44,498 thereafter.
(16) Stockholders’ Equity
The Company is authorized to issue up to 2,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and up to
50,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share, and the Company’s Board of Directors may, without stockholder
approval, increase or decrease the aggregate number of shares of stock or the number of shares of stock of any class or series
that the Company is authorized to issue. At December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022, 349,009 and 349,903 shares, respectively,
of common stock were issued and outstanding and no shares of preferred stock were issued or outstanding.
On February 2, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program for up to $600,000 of
shares to be repurchased in open market transactions or privately negotiated transactions, subject to market conditions, legal
requirements and other factors. Additionally, management has been granted authority to establish a trading plan under Rule
10b5-1 of the Exchange Act in connection with share repurchases, which will allow the Company to repurchase shares in the
open market during periods in which the stock trading window is otherwise closed for the Company and certain of the
Company’s officers and employees pursuant to the Company’s insider trading policy. The new program replaced the
Company’s previous share repurchase program for up to 40,000 shares that was originally approved on February 6, 2020.
Unless terminated earlier by the Company’s Board of Directors, the new program will expire on December 28, 2024. Under the
February 6, 2020 share repurchase program, the Company entered into transactions to repurchase 14,464 shares at a weighted
average repurchase price of $13.83 per share for the year ended January 2, 2021. These shares were repurchased at a total cost
of $200,269. The Company did not purchase any shares of the Company’s common stock under the February 6, 2020 share
repurchase program during 2021. Under the new program, the Company entered into transactions to repurchase 1,577 shares at
a weighted average repurchase price of $15.84 per share for the year ended December 31, 2022. The shares were repurchased at

a total cost of $25,018 including broker’s commissions of $31. The Company did not repurchase any shares under the previous
share repurchase program during 2022 through the expiration of the program on February 2, 2022. At December 31, 2022, the
remaining repurchase authorization under the current share repurchase program totaled $575,013.
Dividends
In 2020 and 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors declared regular quarterly cash dividends of $0.15 per share of the
Company’s outstanding common stock, which were paid in 2020 and 2021, respectively.
During 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors declared regular quarterly cash dividends of $0.15 per share of the
Company’s outstanding common stock, which were paid on March 8, 2022, May 31, 2022, September 14, 2022 and December
13, 2022.
The Company’s Board of Directors eliminated the Company’s quarterly cash dividend as the Company recently shifted its
capital allocation strategy to focus the use of all its free cash flow (cash from operations less capital expenditures) on reducing
debt and bringing its leverage back to a range that is no greater than two to three times on a net debt-to-adjusted EBITDA basis.

Cumulative Translation Adjustment includes translation adjustments and net investment hedges. See Note “Financial Instruments and
Risk Management” for additional disclosures about net investment hedges.
The Company uses a portfolio approach to release the income tax effects in accumulated other comprehensive loss related to
pension and postretirement benefits. Under this approach, the income tax effects are released from accumulated other
comprehensive loss based on the pre-tax adjustments to pension liabilities or assets recognized within other comprehensive
income. Any tax effects remaining in accumulated other comprehensive loss are released only when the entire portfolio of the
pension and postretirement benefits is liquidated, sold or extinguished.

Cash Flow Hedges
The Company uses forward foreign exchange contracts and cross-currency swap contracts to reduce the effect of
fluctuating foreign currencies on foreign currency-denominated transactions, foreign currency-denominated investments and
other known foreign currency exposures. Gains and losses on these contracts are intended to offset losses and gains on the
hedged transaction in an effort to reduce the earnings volatility resulting from fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates.
On April 1, 2021, in connection with a reduction in the amount of the 3.5% Senior Notes designated in the European net
investment hedge discussed below, the Company entered into three pay-fixed rate, receive-fixed rate cross-currency swap
contracts with a total notional amount of €300,000. The Company designated these cross-currency swap contracts to hedge the
undesignated portion of the foreign currency cash flow exposure related to the Company’s 3.5% Senior Notes, which had a
carrying amount of €500,000 as of December 31, 2022. These cross-currency swap contracts, which mature on June 15, 2024,
swap Euro-denominated interest payments for U.S. dollar-denominated interest payments, thereby economically converting
€300,000 of the Company’s €500,000 fixed-rate 3.5% Senior Notes to a fixed-rate 4.7945% USD-denominated obligation.
The Company expects to reclassify into earnings during the next 12 months a net loss from AOCI of approximately
$1,457. The Company is hedging exposure to the variability in future foreign currency-denominated cash flows for forecasted
transactions over the next 14 months and for long-term debt over the next 18 months.

Net Investment Hedges
In July 2019, the Company entered into two pay-fixed rate, receive-fixed rate cross-currency swap contracts with a total
notional amount of €300,000 that were designated as hedges of a portion of the beginning balance of the Company’s net
investment in certain European subsidiaries. These cross-currency swap contracts, which mature on May 15, 2024, swap U.S.
dollar-denominated interest payments for Euro-denominated interest payments, thereby economically converting a portion of
the Company’s fixed-rate 4.625% Senior Notes to a fixed-rate 2.3215% Euro-denominated obligation.
In July 2019, the Company also designated the full amount of its 3.5% Senior Notes with a carrying value of €500,000,
which is a nonderivative financial instrument, as a hedge of a portion of the beginning balance of the Company’s European net
investment. As of April 1, 2021, the Company reduced the amount of its 3.5% Senior Notes designated in the European net
investment hedge from €500,000 to €200,000. As of December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022, the U.S. dollar equivalent
carrying value of Euro-denominated long-term debt designated as a partial European net investment hedge was $214,110 and
$227,454, respectively.

Derivatives used in mark to market hedges are not designated as hedges under the accounting standards. The Company
uses forward foreign exchange derivative contracts as hedges against the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations on existing
accounts receivable and payable balances and intercompany lending transactions denominated in foreign currencies. Forward
foreign exchange derivative contracts are recorded as mark to market hedges when the hedged item is a recorded asset or
liability that is revalued in each accounting period. Any gains or losses resulting from changes in fair value are recognized
directly into earnings. Gains or losses on these contracts largely offset the net remeasurement gains or losses on the related
assets and liabilities.

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. A three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used
in measuring fair value, is utilized for disclosing the fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities. 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 the following three valuation techniques:
• 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.
The Company primarily applies the market approach for commodity derivatives and for all defined benefit plan
investment assets 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. Assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to
the fair value measurement. The determination of fair values incorporates various factors that 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. 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.
As of December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022, 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 forward
foreign exchange derivative contracts, cross-currency swap derivative contracts, defined benefit pension plan investment assets
and deferred compensation plan liabilities. The fair values of forward foreign exchange derivative contracts are determined
using the cash flows of the forward contracts, discount rates to account for the passage of time and current foreign exchange
market data which are all based on inputs readily available in public markets and are categorized as Level 2. The fair values of
cross-currency swap derivative contracts are determined using the cash flows of the swap contracts, discount rates to account
for the passage of time, current foreign exchange and interest rate market data and credit risk, which are all based on inputs
readily available in public markets and are categorized as Level 2. The fair value of deferred compensation plan liabilities is
based on readily available current market data and is categorized as Level 2. The fair values of defined benefit pension plan
investment assets include: certain U.S. equity securities, certain foreign equity securities, cash and cash equivalents and debt
securities that are determined based on quoted prices in public markets categorized as Level 1; insurance contracts that are
determined based on inputs readily available in public markets or can be derived from information available in publicly quoted

markets categorized as Level 2; certain foreign equity securities, debt securities and commodity investments measured at their
net asset value, which is determined based on inputs readily available in public markets; and investments in hedge fund of funds
and real estate investments that are based on unobservable inputs about which little or no market data exists and are measured at
a net asset value. Assets valued utilizing a net asset value are not required to be classified within the fair value hierarchy.
There were no changes during 2022 to the Company’s valuation techniques used to measure asset and liability fair values
on a recurring basis. As of and for the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company did not have any non-financial assets or
liabilities that were required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis or non-recurring basis.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable and accounts payable approximated fair
value as of December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022. The fair value of debt, which is classified as a Level 2 liability, was
$3,697,856 and $3,504,412 as of December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022, respectively. Debt had a carrying value of
$3,872,275 and $3,368,634 as of December 31, 2022 and January 1, 2022, respectively. The fair values were estimated using
quoted market prices as provided in secondary markets, which consider the Company’s credit risk and market related
conditions.
(20) Business Segment Information
The Company’s operations are managed and reported in three operating segments, each of which is a reportable segment
for financial reporting purposes: Innerwear, Activewear and International. These segments are organized principally by product
category and geographic location. Each segment has its own management team that is responsible for the operations of the
segment’s businesses, but the segments share a common supply chain and media and marketing platforms. Other consists of the
Company’s U.S.-based outlet stores, U.S. Sheer Hosiery business and certain sales from its supply chain to the European

segmentation of $17,982 to position the Company’s manufacturing network to align with revenue growth opportunities of its
Full Potential plan demand trends which is reflected in the “Cost of sales” line of the Consolidated Statements of Income.
In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company determined that its U.S. Sheer Hosiery business met held-for-sale accounting
criteria and recorded a non-cash charge related to the Full Potential plan of $38,364 to record a valuation allowance against the
net assets held for sale to write down the carrying value of the disposal group to the estimated fair value less costs of disposal.
In the year ended December 31, 2022, the Company recorded a non-cash gain of $3,535, to adjust the valuation allowance
related to the U.S. Sheer Hosiery business resulting from a decrease in carrying value due to changes in working capital. These
valuation allowance adjustments are reflected in the “Selling, general and administrative expenses” line in the Consolidated
Statements of Income. Additionally, Full Potential plan charges in the year ended January 1, 2022 included impairment charges
of $7,302, which are reflected in the “Selling, general and administrative expenses” line of the Consolidated Statements of
Income, related to the full impairment of an indefinite-lived trademark related to a specific brand within the European
Innerwear business that was excluded from the disposal group as it was not marketed for sale.
In the third quarter of 2021, the Company recorded a Full Potential plan charge of $16,000 for an action to resize its U.S.
corporate office workforce through a voluntary retirement program which was reflected in the “Selling, general and
administrative expenses” line of the Consolidated Statements of Income and in the “Operating model” line of the restructuring
and other action-related charges table above. At January 1, 2022, the accrual for employee termination and other benefits
related to the Company’s 2021 voluntary retirement program was $15,688. During the year ended December 31, 2022, the
Company approved actions to position the Company’s manufacturing network to align with revenue growth opportunities of its
Full Potential plan demand trends and to reduce corporate headcount which resulted in charges of $16,770 for employee
termination and other benefits for employees affected by the actions. Of these charges, $7,170 is reflected in the “Cost of sales”
line in the Consolidated Statements of Income and in the Supply chain segmentation line in the restructuring and other action-
related charges table above and $9,600 related to corporate headcount reductions is reflected in the “Selling, general and
administrative expenses” line of the Consolidated Statements of Income and in the “Operating model” line in the restructuring
and other action-related table. During the year ended December 31, 2022, benefit payments and other adjustments of $16,288,
have been made, resulting in an ending accrual for the actions noted above of $16,170 which is included in the “Accrued
liabilities” line of the Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2022.
In the fourth quarter of 2022, the Company recorded a non-cash discrete tax charge of $422,918 to reflect a full valuation
allowance against the Company’s U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets. As of December 31, 2022, the Company concluded
that, based on its evaluation of all available positive and negative evidence, its U.S. federal and state deferred tax assets were no
longer more likely than not realizable. In making this determination, the Company evaluated positive evidence, including its
projections of future taxable income which demonstrate a long-term return to profitability in the U.S., and negative evidence,
including recent tax losses incurred and expected near term tax losses in connection with its domestic operations and the lack of
sufficient taxable temporary differences expected to reverse in future periods, and determined that the negative evidence
outweighed the positive.
In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Company also recorded a charge of $45,699 in restructuring and other action-related
charges related to the refinancing of its Senior Secured Credit Facility and the redemption of the 5.375% Senior Notes. The
charge, which is reported in the “Other expenses” line in the Consolidated Statements of Income, included a payment of
$34,840 for a make-whole premium in connection with the redemption of the 5.375% Senior Notes, a non-cash charge of
$8,899 for the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs related to the redemption of the 5.375% Senior Notes and the
refinancing of the Senior Secured Credit Facility and $1,960 in fees related to the refinancing. See Note “Debt”.
In the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company began the implementation of its Full Potential plan which included a number
of actions to simplify its business including streamlining its portfolio and SKU rationalization. Specifically, the Company no
longer viewed PPE as a future growth opportunity for the Company. Therefore, the Company recorded a charge of $362,913 to
write down its entire PPE inventory balance to its estimated net realizable value and a charge of $26,400 to accrue for vendor
commitments for PPE materials that were paid in 2021. Additionally, the Company commenced an initiative to reduce 20% of
its SKUs in inventory in order to streamline product offerings while also implementing a formal lifecycle management process.
As a result, the Company recorded a charge of $192,704 to write down inventory to its estimated net realizable value taking

into account these initiatives. In the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company also recorded a charge to write off an acquisition tax
asset.
Additionally, in 2020, restructuring and other action-related charges included $48,608 of supply chain re-start up charges
primarily related to incremental costs incurred, such as freight and sourcing premiums, to expedite product to meet customer
demand following the extended shut-down of parts of the Company’s manufacturing network as a result of the COVID-19
pandemic and $49,460 of asset write-down charges recorded as a result of the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.
