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

 

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s most recent Annual Report onForm 10-K.The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year.

 

 

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued new accounting rules related to the disclosure requirements for fair value measurements. The new accounting rules require new disclosures regarding significant transfers between Levels 1 and 2 of the fair value hierarchy and the activity within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. The new accounting rules also clarify existing disclosures regarding the level of disaggregation of assets or liabilities and the valuation techniques and inputs used to measure fair value. The new accounting rules were effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2010, except for the disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the rollforward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. Those disclosures were effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2011. The adoption of these new rules did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows but resulted in certain additional disclosures reflected in Note 8.

 

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) was computed by dividing net income by the number of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding during the quarters ended April 2, 2011 and April 3, 2010. Diluted EPS was calculated to give effect to all potentially dilutive shares of common stock using the treasury

 

stock method. The reconciliation of basic to diluted weighted average shares outstanding for the quarters ended April 2, 2011 and April 3, 2010 is as follows:

 

 

For the quarters ended April 2, 2011 and April 3, 2010, options to purchase 225 and 2,898 shares of common stock were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation because their effect would be anti-dilutive.

 

 

The changes in the Company’s allowance for doubtful accounts and allowance for chargebacks and other deductions for the quarter ended April 2, 2011 are 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 of the Condensed 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.

 

The Company has entered into agreements to sell selected trade accounts receivable to financial institutions. After the sale, the Company does not retain any interests in the receivables and the applicable financial institution services and collects these accounts receivable directly from the customer. Net proceeds of these accounts receivable sale programs are recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as part of operating cash flows. The Company recognized funding fees of $601 and $489 during the quarters ended April 2, 2011 and April 3, 2010, respectively, for sales of accounts receivable to financial institutions in the “Other expenses” line in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income.

 

 

Inventories consisted of the following:

 

 

The Company had the following debt at April 2, 2011 and January 1, 2011:

 

 

As of April 2, 2011, the Company had $105,000 outstanding under the $600,000 revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Loan Facility”) under the senior secured credit facility that it entered into in 2006 and amended and restated in December 2009 (as amended and restated, the “2009 Senior Secured Credit Facility”), $14,157 of standby and trade letters of credit issued and outstanding under this facility and $480,843 of borrowing availability.

 

In February 2011, the Company amended the 2009 Senior Secured Credit Facility, which includes the Revolving Loan Facility, to reflect improved debt ratings. This amendment reduced the interest rate, extended the maturity date by two years to December 10, 2015, and increased the flexibility of debt covenants and the use of excess cash flow. In addition, the commitment fee for the unused portion of revolving loan commitments was reduced from 75 basis points to 50 basis points. Further, the applicable margin pricing grid for the loans, which varies based on the Company’s Leverage Ratio (as defined below), was reduced by 125 basis points at each applicable Leverage Ratio level.

 

Pursuant to this amendment, the ratio of total debt to EBITDA (the “Leverage Ratio”) that the Company may not exceed was increased from 4.00 to 1 for each fiscal quarter ending between October 16, 2010 and April 15, 2011 to 4.50 to 1, and will decline over time to 3.75 to 1. Also, the minimum ratio of EBITDA to consolidated total interest expense (the “Interest Coverage Ratio”) that the Company is required to maintain was decreased from 3.25 to 1 for each fiscal quarter ending between July 16, 2011 and October 15, 2012 to 3.00 to 1 and will increase over time to 3.25 to 1. In addition, the Company will be required to maintain a maximum ratio of senior secured indebtedness to EBITDA (the “Senior Secured Leverage Ratio”), which for each fiscal quarter ending between October 16, 2010 and October 15, 2012 cannot exceed 2.50 to 1, and will decline over time to 2.00 to 1. The methods of calculating all of the components used in these ratios are

 

included in the 2009 Senior Secured Credit Facility. This amendment also significantly increased the flexibility of the indebtedness, investment and restricted payments baskets and use of excess cash flow under the 2009 Senior Secured Credit Facility. The Company incurred $2,969 in debt amendment fees in connection with the amendment, which will be amortized over the term of the 2009 Senior Secured Credit Facility.

 

In January 2011, the Company amended the accounts receivable securitization facility that it entered into in November 2007 (the “Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility”) to provide for two of the subsidiaries acquired by the Company in the Gear for Sports acquisition, in addition to the Company, to sell, on a revolving basis, certain domestic trade receivables pursuant to this facility. Prior to this amendment, the Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility contained the same financial ratio provisions as those contained in the 2009 Senior Secured Credit Facility. Pursuant to this amendment, the Company is required to maintain the financial ratios and other financial covenants contained from time to time in the 2009 Senior Secured Credit Facility, provided that any changes to such covenants after the date of this amendment will only be applicable for purposes of the Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility if approved by the managing agents under the Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility or their affiliates. This amendment also provided for certain other amendments to the Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility, including extending the termination date to March 31, 2011. In connection with this amendment, certain fees were due to the managing agents and certain fees payable to the committed purchasers and the conduit purchasers were decreased.

 

The Company also amended the Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility in March 2011. In order to take greater advantage of favorable interest rates, the amount of funding available under the Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility, which was initially $250,000 and which the Company reduced to $150,000 effective February 2010, was increased to $225,000. This amendment also provided for certain other amendments to the Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility, including extending the termination date to March 16, 2012. In addition, certain of the factors that contribute to the overall availability of funding were modified in a manner that, taken together, could result in an increase in the amount of funding that will be available under the facility. The Company incurred $600 in debt amendment fees in connection with the amendment, which will be amortized over the term of the Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility.

 

During the quarter ended April 3, 2010, the Company recognized $686 of a write-off on early extinguishment of debt related to unamortized debt issuance costs on the Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility as a result of the reduction in borrowing capacity from $250,000 to $150,000. The Company also recognized $231 in additional charges related to the amendments of credit facilities in 2009 during the quarter ended April 3, 2010. These charges are reflected in the “Other expenses” line of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

 

As of April 2, 2011, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants under its credit facilities.

 

The Company uses financial instruments to manage its exposures to movements in interest rates, foreign exchange rates and commodity prices. The use of these 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.

 

The Company recognizes all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair value is based upon either market quotes for actively traded instruments or independent bids for nonexchange traded instruments. 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 derivatives that are designated as hedges of specific assets, liabilities, firm commitments or forecasted transactions to the hedged risk. On the date the derivative is entered into, the Company designates the derivative as a fair value hedge, cash flow hedge, net investment hedge or a mark to market hedge, and accounts for the derivative in accordance with its designation. The Company also formally assesses, both at inception and at least quarterly thereafter, whether the derivatives are highly effective in offsetting changes in either the fair value or cash flows of the hedged item. If it is determined that a derivative ceases to be a highly effective hedge, or if the anticipated transaction is no longer likely to occur, the Company discontinues hedge accounting, and any deferred gains or losses are recorded in the respective measurement period. The Company currently does not have any fair value or net investment hedge instruments.

 

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.

 

A derivative used as a hedging instrument whose change in fair value is recognized to act as an economic hedge against changes in the values of the hedged item is designated a mark to market hedge.

 

The Company uses foreign exchange derivative contracts to reduce the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations on anticipated intercompany purchase and lending transactions denominated in foreign currencies. 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. Mark to market hedge derivatives relating to intercompany foreign exchange contracts are reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as cash flow from operating activities. As of April 2, 2011, the U.S. dollar equivalent of commitments to purchase and sell foreign currencies in the Company’s foreign currency mark to market hedge derivative portfolio was $3,752 and $43,052, respectively, using the exchange rate at the reporting date.

 

A hedge of a forecasted transaction or of the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability is designated as a cash flow hedge. The effective portion of the change in the fair value of a derivative that is designated as a cash flow hedge is recorded in the “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” line of the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. When the impact of the hedged item is recognized in the income statement, the gain or loss included in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” is reported on the same line in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income as the hedged item.

 

From time to time, the Company uses interest rate cash flow hedges in the form of swaps and caps in order to mitigate the Company’s exposure to variability in cash flows for the future interest payments on a designated portion of floating rate debt. The effective portion of interest rate hedge gains and losses deferred in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” is reclassified into earnings as the underlying debt interest payments are recognized. Interest rate cash flow hedge derivatives are reported as a component of interest expense and therefore are reported as cash flow from operating activities similar to the manner in which cash interest payments are reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows.

 

The Company is required under the 2009 Senior Secured Credit Facility to hedge a portion of its floating rate debt to reduce interest rate risk caused by floating rate debt issuance. To comply with this requirement, in the quarter ended April 3, 2010, the Company entered into hedging arrangements whereby it capped the LIBOR interest rate component on an aggregate of $490,735 of the floating rate debt under the Floating Rate Senior Notes at 4.262%. The interest rate cap arrangements, with notional amounts of $240,735 and $250,000, expire in December 2011.

 

The Company uses forward exchange and option contracts to reduce the effect of fluctuating foreign currencies on short-term foreign currency-denominated transactions, foreign currency-denominated investments, and other known foreign currency exposures. Gains and losses on these contracts are intended to offset losses and gains on the hedged transaction in an effort to reduce the earnings volatility resulting from fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates. The effective portion of foreign exchange hedge gains and losses deferred in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” is reclassified into earnings as the underlying inventory is sold, using historical inventory turnover rates. The settlement of foreign exchange hedge derivative contracts related to the purchase of inventory or other hedged items are reported in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as cash flow from operating activities.

 

Historically, the principal currencies hedged by the Company include the Euro, Mexican peso, Canadian dollar and Japanese yen. Forward exchange contracts mature on the anticipated cash requirement date of the hedged transaction, generally within one year. As of April 2, 2011, the U.S. dollar equivalent of commitments to sell foreign currencies in the Company’s foreign currency cash flow hedge derivative portfolio was $70,559, using the exchange rate at the reporting date.

 

Cotton is the primary raw material used to manufacture many of the Company’s products and is purchased at market prices. The Company is able to lock in the cost of cotton reflected in the price it pays for yarn from its primary yarn suppliers in an attempt to protect its business from the volatility of the market price of cotton. In addition, from time to time, the Company uses commodity financial instruments to hedge the price of cotton, for which there is a high correlation between the hedged item and the hedge instrument. Gains and losses on these contracts are intended to offset losses and gains on the hedged transactions in an effort to reduce the earnings volatility resulting from fluctuating commodity prices. There were no amounts outstanding under cotton futures or cotton option contracts at April 2, 2011 and January 1, 2011.

 

 

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

 

 

The effect of cash flow hedge derivative instruments on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss is as follows:

 

 

The Company expects to reclassify into earnings during the next 12 months a net loss from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss of approximately $6,981. The amounts deferred in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss associated with a Floating Rate Senior Notes interest rate hedge that was terminated at the time the Company entered into the 2009 Senior Secured Credit Facility were frozen at the termination date and will be

 

amortized over the original remaining term of the interest rate hedge instrument. The unamortized balance in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss was $13,741 as of April 2, 2011.

 

The changes in fair value of derivatives excluded from the Company’s effectiveness assessments and the ineffective portion of the changes in the fair value of derivatives used as cash flow hedges are reported in the “Selling, general and administrative expenses” line in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The Company recognized losses related to ineffectiveness of hedging relationships in the quarter ended April 2, 2011 for foreign exchange contracts of $3. The Company recognized gains related to ineffectiveness of hedging relationships in the quarter ended April 3, 2010 for foreign exchange contracts of $9.

 

The effect of mark to market hedge derivative instruments on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income is as follows:

 

 

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.

 

As of April 2, 2011, the Company held certain financial assets and liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. These consisted of the Company’s derivative instruments related to interest rates and foreign exchange rates. The Company’s defined benefit pension plan investments are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair values of interest rate derivatives are determined with pricing models using LIBOR interest rate curves, spreads, volatilities and other relevant information developed using market data and are categorized as Level 2. The fair values of foreign currency derivatives are determined using the cash flows of the foreign exchange contract, discount rates to account for the passage of time and current foreign exchange market data and are categorized as Level 2.

 

There were no changes during the quarter ended April 2, 2011 to the Company’s valuation techniques used to measure asset and liability fair values on a recurring basis. There were no transfers between the three level categories and there were no Level 3 assets or liabilities measured on a quarterly basis during the quarter ended April 2, 2011. As of April 2, 2011, the Company did not have any non-financial assets or liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The Company did not have any non-financial assets or liabilities that are required to be measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis that were measured at fair value during the quarter ended April 2, 2011.

 

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

 

 

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, notes receivable and accounts payable approximated fair value as of April 2, 2011 and January 1, 2011. The fair value of debt was $2,260,148 and $2,060,828 as of April 2, 2011 and January 1, 2011 and had a carrying value of $2,238,071 and $2,080,735, respectively. The fair values were estimated using quoted market prices as provided in secondary markets which consider the Company’s credit risk and market related conditions. The carrying amounts of the Company’s notes payable approximated fair value as of April 2, 2011 and January 1, 2011, primarily due to the short-term nature of these instruments.

 

 

The Company’s comprehensive income is as follows:

 

 

The Company’s effective income tax rate was 20% and 22% for the quarters ended April 2, 2011 and April 3, 2010, respectively. The lower effective income tax rate for the quarter ended April 2, 2011 compared to the quarter ended April 3, 2010 is primarily attributable to a higher proportion of earnings attributed to foreign subsidiaries, which are taxed at rates lower than the U.S. statutory rate, in the quarter ended April 2, 2011 than in the quarter ended April 3, 2010, partially offset by a one-time benefit of $3 million in the quarter ended April 3, 2010 resulting from the finalization of tax reviews and audits for amounts that were less than originally anticipated.

 

The Company and Sara Lee Corporation (“Sara Lee”) entered into a tax sharing agreement in connection with the spin off of the Company from Sara Lee on September 5, 2006. Under the tax sharing agreement, within 180 days after Sara Lee filed its final consolidated tax return for the period that included September 5, 2006, Sara Lee was required to deliver to the Company a computation of the amount of deferred taxes attributable to the Company’s United States and Canadian operations that would be included on the Company’s opening balance sheet as of September 6, 2006 (“as finally determined”) which has been done. The Company has the right to participate in the computation of the amount of deferred taxes. Under the tax sharing agreement, if substituting the amount of deferred taxes as finally determined for the amount of estimated deferred taxes that were included on that balance sheet at the time of the spin off causes a decrease in the net book value reflected on that balance sheet, then Sara Lee will be required to pay the Company the amount of such decrease. If such substitution causes an increase in the net book value reflected on that balance sheet, then the Company will be required to pay Sara Lee the amount of such increase. For purposes of this computation, the Company’s deferred taxes are the amount of deferred tax benefits (including deferred tax consequences attributable to deductible temporary differences and carryforwards) that would be recognized as assets on the Company’s balance sheet computed in accordance with GAAP, but without regard to valuation allowances, less the amount of deferred tax liabilities (including deferred tax consequences attributable to taxable temporary differences) that would be recognized as liabilities on the Company’s opening balance sheet computed in accordance with GAAP, but without regard to valuation allowances. Neither the Company nor Sara Lee will be required to make any other payments to the other with respect to deferred taxes.

 

Based on the Company’s computation of the final amount of deferred taxes for the Company’s opening balance sheet as of September 6, 2006, the amount that is expected to be collected from Sara Lee based on the Company’s computation of $72,223, which reflects a preliminary cash installment received from Sara Lee of $18,000, is included as a receivable in “Deferred tax assets and other current assets” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of April 2, 2011 and January 1, 2011. The Company and Sara Lee exchanged information in connection with this matter, but Sara Lee disagreed with the Company’s computation. In accordance with the dispute resolution provisions of the tax sharing agreement, in August 2009, the Company submitted the dispute to binding arbitration. The arbitration process is ongoing, and the Company will continue to prosecute its claim. The Company does not believe that the resolution of this dispute will have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

Under section 2.12 of the tax sharing agreement with Sara Lee discussed above, in 2010, the Company recorded a liability of approximately $15,000 to Sara Lee for amounts related to income generated prior to the spin off from Sara Lee which were repatriated in periods since the spin off. The liability is included in Accounts payable in the Condensed Consolidated Balance sheets as of April 2, 2011 and January 1, 2011 with the resulting offset recorded as a reduction to Additional paid-in capital. Except for the amounts reflected in this Note 10, to the best of the Company’s knowledge, there are no other amounts owed to or from Sara Lee under the tax sharing agreement.

 

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

 

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

 

 

The Company evaluates the operating performance of its segments based upon segment operating profit, which is defined as operating profit before general corporate expenses, amortization of trademarks and other identifiable intangibles and restructuring and related accelerated depreciation charges and inventory write-offs. The accounting policies of the segments are consistent with those described in Note 2 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report onForm 10-Kfor the year ended January 1,

 

2011. Certain prior year segment operating profit disclosures have been revised to conform to the current year presentation. These changes were primarily the result of the Company’s decision to cease allocating certain compensation related expenses to the segments.

 

 

 

 

 

In accordance with the indenture governing the Company’s $500,000 Floating Rate Senior Notes issued on December 14, 2006, the indenture governing the Company’s $500,000 8% Senior Notes issued on December 10, 2009 and the indenture governing the Company’s $1,000,000 6.375% Senior Notes issued on November 9, 2010 (together, the “Indentures”), certain of the Company’s subsidiaries have guaranteed the Company’s obligations under the Floating Rate Senior Notes, the 8% Senior Notes and the 6.375% Senior Notes, respectively. The following presents the condensed consolidating financial information separately for:

 

(i) Parent Company, the issuer of the guaranteed obligations. Parent Company includes Hanesbrands Inc. and its 100% owned operating divisions which are not legal entities, and excludes its subsidiaries which are legal entities;

 

(ii) Guarantor subsidiaries, on a combined basis, as specified in the Indentures;

 

(iii) Non-guarantor subsidiaries, on a combined basis;

 

(iv) Consolidating entries and eliminations representing adjustments to (a) eliminate intercompany transactions between or among Parent Company, the guarantor subsidiaries and the non-guarantor subsidiaries, (b) eliminate intercompany profit in inventory, (c) eliminate the investments in our subsidiaries and (d) record consolidating entries; and

 

(v) Parent Company, on a consolidated basis.

 

The Floating Rate Senior Notes, the 8% Senior Notes and the 6.375% Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by each guarantor subsidiary, each of which is wholly owned, directly or indirectly, by Hanesbrands Inc. Each entity in the consolidating financial information follows the same accounting policies as described in the consolidated financial statements, except for the use by the Parent Company and guarantor subsidiaries of the equity method of accounting to reflect ownership interests in subsidiaries which are eliminated upon consolidation.
