FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes 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. 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. In particular, statements under the heading “Outlook” and other information appearing under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” include forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements inherently involve many risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those projected in these statements.

Where, in any forward-looking statement, we express an expectation or belief as to future results or events, such expectation or belief is based on the current plans and expectations of our management, expressed in good faith and believed to have a reasonable basis. However, there can be no assurance that the expectation or belief will result or will be achieved or accomplished. More information on factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those anticipated is included from time to time in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2017, under the caption “Risk Factors,” and available on the “Investors” section of our corporate website, www.Hanes.com/investors.

All forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended ~~December 30, 2017, particularly under the caption “Risk Factors.”~~ We undertake no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, other than as required by law.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(dollars and shares in thousands, except per share data)

(unaudited)


(1)	Basis of Presentation

These statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and, in accordance with those rules and regulations, do not include all information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Management believes that the disclosures made are adequate for a fair statement of the results of operations, financial condition and cash flows of Hanesbrands Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company” or “Hanesbrands”). In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments, which consist only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to state 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. ~~Four~~Three subsidiaries of the Company close ~~on a~~one day ~~which is less than a week different than~~after the Company’s consolidated quarter 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.

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~~2017 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The year end condensed balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year.


(2)	Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)”, a new accounting standard on revenue recognition that outlines a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. The FASB has subsequently issued updates to the standard to provide additional clarification on specific topics. The new standard was effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2018 and applied using a modified retrospective method. The Company has included enhanced disclosures related to disaggregation of revenue sources and accounting policies. The adoption of the new accounting rules did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows, but did result in additional disclosures. Refer to Note, “Revenue Recognition.”

Statement of Cash Flows

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments.” The new guidance addresses the classification of debt prepayment and extinguishment costs and contingent consideration payments made after a business combination. The new standard was effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2018. The adoption of the new accounting rules did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230): Restricted Cash (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force).” This standard requires that restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents be included in cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning-of-period and end-of-period total amounts shown in the statement of cash flows. The Company adopted the provisions of ASU 2016-18 in the first quarter of 2018 using the retrospective transition method. The Company did not have restricted cash in prior ~~periods,~~periods; therefore, the adoption of the new guidance did not have an impact to previously reported cash flows. The Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flow for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June 30,~~September 29, 2018 includes restricted cash of ~~$23,540.~~$23,208.

Retirement Benefits

In March 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-07, “Compensation - Retirement Benefits (Topic 715): Improving the presentation of net periodic pension cost and net periodic postretirement benefit cost.” The new rules require that an employer report the service cost component in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by

(unaudited)

~~report the service cost component in the same line item or items as other compensation costs arising from services rendered by~~ pertinent employees during the period. The other components of net benefit cost are required to be presented in the income statement separately from the service cost component and outside a subtotal of income from operations. The new standard was effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2018 and applied with retrospective treatment. Accordingly, the Company reclassified ~~$5,028~~$5,162 and ~~$10,189~~$15,351 from the “Selling, general and administrative expenses” line to the “Other expenses” line within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income for the quarter and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~July 1,~~September 30, 2017, respectively. The adoption of the new accounting rules did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-14, “Compensation - Retirement Benefits - Defined Benefit Plans - General (Subtopic 715-20).” The new rule expands disclosure requirements for employer sponsored defined benefit pension and other retirement plans. The new rules will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2020. The Company does not expect the new accounting rules to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows, however expanded disclosures will be required.

Income Taxes

In October 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-16, “Income Taxes (Topic 740): Intra-Entity Transfers of Assets Other Than Inventory.” The new rules eliminate the exception for an intra-entity transfer of an asset other than inventory, which aligns the recognition of income tax consequences for such transfers. The new rules require the recognition of current and deferred income taxes resulting from these transfers when the transfer occurs rather than when it is sold to an external party. The new standard was effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2018. The adoption of the new accounting rules did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In March 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-05, “Income Taxes (Topic 740).” The new rules amended ~~the~~ SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”) to incorporate the impact of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The new standard was effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2018 and the impact will be ~~considered~~reflected in the Company’s tax related disclosures throughout the year.

Definition of a Business

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-01, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Clarifying the Definition of a Business.” The new rules provide for the application of a screen test to consider whether substantially all the fair value of the assets acquired is concentrated in a single identifiable asset or a group of similar identifiable assets. If the screen test determines this to be true, the set is not a business. The new standard was effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2018. The adoption of the new accounting rules did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Stock Compensation

In May 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-09, “Compensation - Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Scope of Modification Accounting.” The new rules provide guidance about which changes to the terms or conditions of a share-based payment award require an entity to apply modification accounting. Under the new rules, an entity should account for the effects of a modification unless the fair value, vesting conditions and classification of the modified award are the same as the original award immediately before the original award is modified. The new standard was effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2018. The adoption of the new accounting rules did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Financial Instruments

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-03, “Technical Corrections and Improvements to Financial Instruments - Overall (Subtopic 825-10).” The new rules clarify previously issued guidance regarding determination of the fair value of financial instruments. The new standard ~~will be~~was effective for the Company in the third quarter of 2018. The ~~Company does not expect the~~ adoption of the new accounting ~~standard to~~rules did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Lease Accounting

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, “Leases,” which will require lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases that are not short-term in nature. The standard will also result in enhanced quantitative and qualitative disclosures surrounding leases. The FASB has subsequently issued updates to the standard to provide clarification on specific topics, including adoption guidance and practical expedients. The new rules will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2019. The Company plans to adopt the new rules utilizing the modified retrospective method and will recognize any cumulative effect adjustment in retained earnings at the beginning of the period of adoption. The Company has established a cross-functional implementation team to analyze the impact and implement the new standard. The

Company has collected relevant data in order to evaluate lease arrangements, assess potential embedded leases and evaluate accounting policy elections. The Company is also evaluating its processes and internal controls to identify any changes necessary as a result of the new rules. ~~To assist in the implementation and enable the preparation of the required financial disclosures, the~~The Company has identified a global lease management and accounting ~~software.~~software solution, which is currently being tested and implemented.

Derivatives and Hedging

In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-12, “Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities.” The new rules expand the hedging strategies that qualify for hedge accounting, including contractually-specified price components of a commodity purchase or sale, hedges of the benchmark rate component of the contractual coupon cash flows of fixed-rate assets and liabilities, hedges of the portion of a closed portfolio of prepayable assets and partial-term hedges of fixed-rate assets and liabilities. The new rules also allow additional time to complete hedge effectiveness testing and allow qualitative assessments subsequent to initial quantitative tests if there is a supportable expectation that the hedge will remain highly effective. The new rules will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2019, with early adoption permitted. The Company expects to adopt the new rules in the first quarter of 2019 and does not expect the adoption of the new accounting rules to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Comprehensive Income

In February 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-02, “Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” The new rules allow a reclassification from accumulated other comprehensive income to retained earnings for stranded tax effects resulting from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. The new rules will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2019. The Company is in the process of assessing the impact of the new accounting rules on the Company’s financial condition and does not expect the adoption of the new accounting rules to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or cash flows.

Codification Improvements

In July 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-09, “Codification Improvements.” The new rules clarify guidance around several subtopics by adopting enhanced verbiage to the following subtopics: reporting comprehensive income, debt modifications and extinguishments, distinguishing liabilities from equity, stock compensation, business combinations, derivatives and hedging, fair value measurement and defined contribution pension plans. Some of the amendments were effective upon issuance, but many of the amendments are effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2019. The Company does not expect the adoption of the new accounting rules to have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or cash flows.

Goodwill Impairment

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment.” The new rules simplify how an entity is required to test goodwill for impairment by eliminating Step 2 from the goodwill impairment test. Step 2 measures a goodwill impairment loss by comparing the implied fair value of a reporting unit’s goodwill with the carrying amount. The new rules will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2020. The Company does not expect the adoption of the new accounting rules to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.

Fair Value

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820),” which modifies the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements. The new rules will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2020. The Company does not expect the adoption of the new accounting rules to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows, however its disclosures will be impacted.

Internal-Use Software

In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, “Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 340-40),” which aligns the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred in a hosting arrangement that is a service contract with the requirements for capitalizing implementation costs incurred to develop or obtain internal-use software. The new rules will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2020. The Company does not expect the adoption of the new accounting rules to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Financial Instruments - Credit Losses

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments”, which require a financial asset measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The new rules eliminate the probable initial recognition threshold and, instead, reflect an entity’s current estimate of all expected credit losses. The new rules will be effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2020. The Company expects the new rules to impact its trade receivables and standby letters of credit, but does not expect the adoption of the new accounting rules to have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.


(3)	Revenue Recognition

On December 31, 2017, the Company adopted ASU 2014-09, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606)” (“Topic 606”) using the modified retrospective method applied to contracts which were pending as of December 31, 2017. Financial results included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income for the quarter and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June 30,~~September 29, 2018 are presented under Topic 606, while prior year amounts have not been restated and continue to be reported in accordance with ASC 605, “Revenue Recognition” (“Topic 605”). As a result of adopting Topic 606, the Company did not adjust opening retained earnings.

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.

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.

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.

Variable Consideration

Trade discounts 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

(4)	Acquisitions

Bras N Things

On February 12, 2018, the Company acquired 100% of the outstanding equity of BNT Holdco Pty Limited (“Bras N Things”) for a total purchase price of A$498,236 ~~(US$~~(U.S.$391,572), which included a cash payment of A$428,956 ~~(US$~~(U.S.$337,123), an indemnification escrow of A$31,988 ~~(US$~~(U.S.$25,140) and debt assumed of A$34,280 ~~(US$~~(U.S.$26,942). During the ~~quarter~~nine months ended ~~June 30,~~September 29, 2018, the purchase consideration was reduced by A$3,012 ~~(US$~~(U.S.$2,367) associated with the final working capital adjustment, resulting in a revised purchase price of A$495,224 ~~(US$~~(U.S.$389,205).

The Company funded the acquisition with a combination of short-term borrowings under its ~~Revolving~~revolving loan facility (the “Revolving Loan ~~Facility~~Facility”) and cash on hand. The ~~A$31,988~~ indemnification escrow is held in a retention account for a period of 18 months after the date of the acquisition to secure indemnification claims or other obligations of the sellers under the purchase agreement. The remaining balance of the indemnification escrow, including interest earned, if any, will be paid to the sellers at the end of the 18 month period. The indemnification escrow, held in one of the Company’s bank accounts, is recognized and classified as restricted cash, ~~and~~with the balance as of September 29, 2018 included in the “Other ~~noncurrent~~current assets” line of the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Bras N Things contributed net revenues of ~~$47,587~~$79,587 and pretax earnings of ~~$8,970~~$15,581 (excluding acquisition and integration related charges of approximately ~~$3,276)~~$5,341) since the date of acquisition.

Bras N Things is a leading intimate apparel retailer and e-commerce business in Australia, New Zealand and South Africa. Bras N Things sells proprietary bras, panties and lingerie sets through a retail network of approximately 170 stores and an e-commerce platform. The Company believes this acquisition will create opportunities for expansion of the Bras N Things’ consumer-directed sales model. Factors that contribute to the amount of goodwill recognized for the acquisition include the value of entry into the outlet store sector, expansion of online presence, including the third-party marketplace, and expected synergies with existing Company functions. Goodwill associated with the acquisition is not tax deductible.

The Bras N Things trademark and brand name, which management believes to have an indefinite life, has been valued at $275,071. Amortizable intangible assets have been assigned values of $2,358 for noncompete agreements and $785 for customer lists. Noncompete agreements and the customer list are being amortized over three years.

The allocation of purchase price is preliminary and subject to change. The primary areas of the purchase price allocation that are not yet finalized are related to income taxes and residual goodwill. Accordingly, adjustments may be made to the values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as additional information is obtained about the facts and circumstances, which existed at the acquisition date. The acquired assets and liabilities as of the date of acquisition (February 12, 2018) include the following:


Cash and cash equivalents	$	2,765	$	2,765

Champion Europe

In 2016, the Company acquired 100% of Champion Europe S.p.A. (“Champion Europe”), in an all-cash transaction valued at €220,751 ~~(US$~~(U.S.$245,554) on an enterprise value basis, less working capital adjustments as defined in the purchase agreement, which included an estimated contingent consideration of €40,700 ~~(US$~~(U.S.$45,277).

(5)	Stockholders’ Equity

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) was computed by dividing net income by the number of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding. 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 is as follows:


	Quarter Ended		Six Months Ended		Quarter Ended		Nine Months Ended
	June 30, 2018	July 1, 2017	June 30, 2018	July 1, 2017	September 29, 2018	September 30, 2017	September 29, 2018	September 30, 2017

There were 1484 restricted stock units excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation because their effect would be anti-dilutive for the quarter and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June 30,~~September 29, 2018. For the quarter and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~July 1,~~September 30, 2017, there were no28 and 58 restricted stock units, respectively, excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation because their effect would be anti-dilutive. For the quarters and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June 30,~~September 29, 2018 and ~~July 1,~~September 30, 2017, there were no anti-dilutive options to purchase shares of common stock.

Cash Flow Hedges

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 Company uses forward foreign exchange 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 Company expects to reclassify into earnings during the next 12 months a net gain from AOCI of approximately ~~$7,987.~~$13,991.

The ineffective portion of the changes in the fair value of derivatives used as cash flow hedges are reported in the “Cost of sales” line in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

The effect of cash flow hedge derivative instruments on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and AOCI is as follows:

Mark to Market Hedges

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 as economic hedges against the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations on existing accounts receivable and payable

(unaudited)

balances and intercompany 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. These contracts are not designated as hedges under the accounting standards and are recorded at fair value in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. 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.

The effect of derivative contracts not designated as hedges on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income is as follows:

(10)	Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities

As of ~~June 30,~~September 29, 2018, 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 foreign exchange rates and deferred compensation plan liabilities. The fair values of foreign exchange rate 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 which are all based on inputs readily available in public markets and are categorized as Level 2. The fair value of deferred compensation plans is based on readily available current market data and is categorized as Level 2. The Company’s defined benefit pension plan investments are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

There were no changes during the quarter ended ~~June 30,~~September 29, 2018 to the Company’s valuation techniques used to measure asset and liability fair values on a recurring basis. There were no transfers into or out of Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 during the quarter ended ~~June 30,~~September 29, 2018. As of and during the quarter and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June 30,~~September 29, 2018, the Company did not have any non-financial assets or liabilities that were required to be measured at fair value on a recurring or non-recurring basis.

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.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, trade accounts receivable, notes receivable and accounts payable approximated fair value as of ~~June 30,~~September 29, 2018 and December 30, 2017. The carrying amount of trade accounts receivable included allowance for doubtful accounts, chargebacks and other deductions of $~~28,489~~47,267 and $26,096 as of ~~June 30,~~September 29, 2018 and December 30, 2017, respectively. The fair value of debt, which is classified as a Level 2 liability, was ~~$4,495,967~~$4,371,893 and $4,093,229 as of ~~June 30,~~September 29, 2018 and December 30, 2017, respectively. Debt had a carrying value of $~~4,522,198~~4,406,522 and $3,993,267 as of ~~June 30,~~September 29, 2018 and December 30, 2017, 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, which is classified as a Level 2 liability, approximated fair value as of ~~June 30,~~September 29, 2018 and December 30, 2017, primarily due to the short-term nature of these instruments.


(11)	Income Taxes

The Company’s effective income tax rate for continuing operations was ~~14.8%~~12.9% and ~~6.0%~~2.0% for the quarters ended ~~June 30,~~September 29, 2018 and ~~July 1,~~September 30, 2017, respectively. The Company’s effective income tax rate for continuing operations was ~~15.2%~~14.2% and ~~6.0%~~4.2% for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June 30,~~September 29, 2018 and ~~July 1,~~September 30, 2017, respectively. The higher effective income tax rate for the quarter and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June 30,~~September 29, 2018 compared to the quarter and ~~six~~nine months ended ~~July 1,~~September 30, 2017 was primarily due to certain provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”), specifically the base-broadening provision which imposed a new minimum tax on global intangible low-tax income (“GILTI”).

The recently enacted Tax Act significantly revised U.S. corporate income tax law by, among other things, reducing the federal income tax rate to 21% and implementing a modified territorial tax system that includes a one-time transition tax on deemed repatriated earnings of foreign subsidiaries. In response to the Tax Act, the SEC issued Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 (“SAB 118”) which allows issuers to recognize provisional estimates of the impact of the Tax Act in their financial statements, or in circumstances where estimates cannot be made, to disclose and recognize at a later date. For the year ended December 30, 2017, the Company included in its financial statements provisional charges for the revaluation of the Company’s net domestic deferred tax assets, the transition tax, as well as other less material provisions of the Tax Act.

As of ~~June 30,~~September 29, 2018, the Company is incontinuing to evaluate its provisional estimate regarding the ~~process of evaluating the~~overall impact of the Tax Act, onincluding being partially reinvested with respect to prior year undistributed earnings. A $3,053 net beneficial change to the Company’s provisional ~~charge of $4,659~~estimate was ~~recognized in~~recorded during the quarter ended ~~June 30, 2018 for actual and planned permanent repatriations; however,~~September 29, 2018. The net change to the ~~Company is continuing to evaluate the overall impact of its partial permanent reinvestment assertion. Furthermore, a~~Company’s provisional ~~benefit of $4,022 was recognized~~estimate related to a refinement of the year-end revaluation of the Company’s net domestic deferred tax assets, a refinement of the Company’s transition ~~tax.~~tax calculation, further assessment of the deductibility of executive compensation based on released guidance and the repatriations of foreign earnings during the year. The Company continues to assess the impact of new guidance on its positions, including the permanent reinvestment of a portion of prior year undistributed earnings. There are no additional changes at this time to the provisional amounts recorded as of the year ended December 30, 2017. The accounting is expected to be completed and disclosed in the fourth quarter of 2018, within the one-year measurement period as allowed by SAB 118.

During the first quarter ended March 31, 2018, the Company finalized its accounting policy decision with respect to the new GILTI tax rules, and has concluded that GILTI will be treated as a periodic charge in the year in which it arises, ~~and~~the Company will not record deferred taxes for the basis associated with GILTI earnings.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2018 and six months ended June 30, 2018, the Company recorded a liability for an unrecognized tax benefit of $17,643, related to the acquisition of Bras N Things, as part of purchase accounting.

For the quarter ended March 31, 2018 and included in the nine months ended September 29, 2018, the Company recorded a liability for an unrecognized tax benefit of $17,643 as part of purchase accounting for the Bras N Things acquisition. The Company is fully indemnified for all pre-acquisition unrecognized tax benefits, and expects that no change to the overall purchase price should be required.

The Company files a consolidated U.S. federal income tax return, as well as separate and combined income tax returns in numerous state and foreign jurisdictions. During the fourth quarter of 2017, the Company was notified by the IRS that it would begin examining the Company’s 2015 federal income tax return. During the quarter ended September 29, 2018, the Company was notified by the IRS that it would also begin examining the 2016 federal income tax return. The company believes its unrecognized tax benefits are adequate in relation to any potential assessments. The outcome of either examination, which may conclude in the next 12 months, is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations.


(12)	Discontinued Operations

As part of the Company’s acquisition of Hanes Australasia in 2016, the Company acquired Hanes Australasia’s legacy Dunlop Flooring and Tontine Pillow businesses. The Company concluded that these businesses were not a strategic fit; therefore, the decision was made to divest the businesses.

In February 2017, the Company sold its Dunlop Flooring business for A$34,564 ~~(US$~~(U.S.$26,219) in net cash proceeds at the time of sale, with an additional A$1,334 ~~(US$~~(U.S.$1,012) of proceeds received in April 2017 related to a working capital adjustment, resulting in a pre-tax loss of A$2,715 ~~(US$~~(U.S.$2,083). U.S. dollar equivalents are based on exchange rates on the date of the sale transaction. The Dunlop Flooring business was reported as part of discontinued operations since the date of acquisition.

In March 2017, the Company sold its Tontine Pillow business for A$13,500 ~~(US$~~(U.S.$10,363) in net cash proceeds at the time of sale. A working capital adjustment of A$966 ~~(US$~~(U.S.$742) was paid to the buyer in April 2017, resulting in a net pre-tax gain of A$2,415 ~~(US$~~(U.S.$1,856). U.S. dollar equivalents are based on exchange rates on the date of the sale transaction. The Tontine Pillow business was reported as part of discontinued operations since the date of acquisition.

The operating results of these discontinued operations only reflect revenues and expenses that are directly attributable to these businesses that were eliminated from ongoing operations. The key components from discontinued operations related to the Dunlop Flooring and Tontine Pillow businesses were as follows:

(13)	Subsequent Event

On October 15, 2018, Sears Holdings Corporation (“Sears”) filed for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. As a result of the filing, the Company recorded bad debt expense of approximately $14,113 in the quarter and nine months ended September 29, 2018 to reflect the Company’s assessment of the accounts receivable collectability from Sears. The Company recorded this charge in the “Selling, general and administrative expenses” line of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.


~~(13)~~(14)	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 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. value-based (“outlet”) stores and U.S. hosiery business.

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

Innerwear sells basic branded products that are replenishment in nature under the product categories of men’s underwear, panties, children’s underwear, socks and intimate apparel, which includes bras and shapewear.

Activewear sells basic branded products that are primarily seasonal in nature under the product categories of branded printwear and retail activewear, as well as licensed logo apparel in collegiate bookstores, mass retail and other channels.

International primarily relates to the Europe, Australia, Asia, Latin America and Canada geographic locations that sell products that span across the Innerwear and Activewear reportable segments.

The Company evaluates the operating performance of its segments based upon segment operating profit, which is defined as operating profit before general corporate expenses, acquisition, integration and other action-related charges and amortization

of intangibles. In the first quarter of 2018, the Company eliminated the allocation of certain corporate overhead selling, general and administrative expenses related to the legal, human resources, information technology, finance and real estate departments to the segments, in order to reflect the manner in which the business is managed and results are reviewed by the chief executive officer, who is the Company’s chief operating decision maker. Prior year segment operating profit disclosures have been revised to conform to the current year presentation. 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 on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2017.

Item 2.	Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

This management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations, or MD&A, contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. Please see “Forward-Looking Statements” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for a discussion of the uncertainties, risks and assumptions associated with these statements. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our historical financial statements and related notes thereto and the other disclosures contained elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes included herein should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 30, 2017, which were included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC. The results of operations for the periods reflected herein are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for future periods, and our actual results may differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements as a result of various factors, including but not limited to those included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and those included in the “Risk Factors” section and elsewhere in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2017.

Overview

We are a consumer goods company with a portfolio of leading apparel brands, including Hanes, Champion, Bonds, Maidenform, DIM, Bali, Playtex, JMS/Just My Size, Nur Die/Nur Der, L’eggs, Lovable, Wonderbra, Berlei, Gear for Sports, Bras N Things and Alternative. We design, manufacture, source and sell a broad range of basic apparel such as T-shirts, bras, panties, men’s underwear, children’s underwear, activewear, socks and hosiery.

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 that is responsible for the operations of the segment’s businesses, but the segments share a common supply chain and media and marketing platforms. In the first quarter of 2018, we eliminated the allocation of certain corporate overhead selling, general and administrative expenses related to the legal, human resources, information technology, finance and real estate departments to the segments, in order to reflect the manner in which the business is managed and results are reviewed by the chief executive officer, who is our chief operating decision maker. Prior year segment operating profit disclosures have been revised to conform to the current year presentation.

Highlights from the ~~Second~~Third Quarter Ended ~~June 30,~~September 29, 2018

Key financial highlights are as follows:

Total net sales in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2018 were ~~$1.72~~$1.85 billion, compared with ~~$1.65~~$1.80 billion in the same period of 2017, representing a 4%3% increase.

Operating profit decreased 6%1% to ~~$220~~$257 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2018, compared with ~~$234~~$258 million in the same period of 2017. As a percentage of sales, operating profit was ~~12.8%~~13.9% in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2018 compared to ~~14.2%~~14.4% in the same period of 2017. ~~Included within operating profit for both the second quarter of 2018 and 2017 were acquisition, integration and other action-related charges of $25 million and $26 million, respectively.~~

Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations decreased ~~17%~~15% to ~~$0.39~~$0.47 in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2018, compared with ~~$0.47~~$0.55 in the same period of 2017.

Outlook

We expect 2018 full-year net sales of ~~$6.72~~$6.735 billion to ~~$6.82~~$6.775 billion.

Interest and other expenses are expected to be approximately ~~$207~~$221 million, combined.

We expect the 2018 full-year tax rate to ~~be approximately 16%.~~approach 15 percent.

We expect cash flow from operations to be in the range of ~~$675~~$625 million to ~~$750~~$675 million. We expect capital expenditures of approximately $90 million to $100 million.

Seasonality and Other Factors

Our operating results are subject to some variability due to seasonality and other factors. Generally, our diverse range of product offerings helps mitigate the impact of seasonal changes in demand for certain items. We generally have 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. Sales levels in any period are also impacted by customers’ decisions to increase or decrease their inventory levels in response to anticipated consumer demand. Our customers may cancel or change delivery schedules, manage

on-hand inventory levels, 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.

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, including, among others, general business conditions, interest rates, inflation, consumer debt levels, the availability of consumer credit, taxation, gasoline prices, weather, unemployment trends and other matters that influence consumer confidence and spending. Many of these factors are outside of our control. Consumers’ purchases of discretionary items, including our products, could decline during periods when disposable income is lower, when prices increase in response to rising costs, or in periods of actual or perceived unfavorable economic conditions. These consumers may choose to purchase fewer of our products, to purchase lower-priced products of our competitors in response to higher prices for our products, or may choose not to purchase our products at prices that reflect our price increases that become effective from time to time.

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 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, hosiery 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 customers’ preferences and discretionary spending.

Net Sales

Net sales increased 4%3% during the ~~second~~third quarter of 2018 primarily due to the following:

Acquisition of Bras N Things in 2018 and Alternative Apparel in 2017, which added incremental net sales of ~~$52~~$48 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2018;

Organic sales on a constant currency basis, defined as sales excluding the impact of foreign currency and businesses acquired within 12 months, which increased ~~slightly~~more than 1% in the quarter, driven by ~~performance of our key growth initiatives. Strong~~strong growth in our global Champion brand, men’s underwear business and online sales, ~~was~~partially offset ~~in part~~ by declines in our ~~intimate apparel~~remaining innerwear and ~~Hanes~~activewear ~~businesses;~~product categories; and

~~Favorable~~Unfavorable impact from foreign exchange rates in our International businesses of approximately ~~$16~~$22 million.

Gross Profit

Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 38.5%, ~~a decrease~~an increase from prior year of approximately 7080 basis points. Gross margin ~~decreased~~increased as expansion in our ~~international~~International segment gross margin and ~~continued realization of acquisition synergies were more~~

~~than~~favorable product mix within our Activewear segment was partially offset by higher input costs ~~product mix within our Innerwear segment~~ and higher ~~acquisition-related~~acquisition, integration and ~~integration~~other action-related charges. Included

in gross profit in the ~~second~~third quarters of 2018 and 2017 are charges of ~~$11~~$12 million and $4$2 million, respectively, related to acquisition, integration and other action-related costs.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

As a percentage of net sales, our selling, general and administrative expenses were ~~25.6%~~24.7% for the ~~second~~third quarter of 2018 compared to ~~25.0%~~23.3% in the same period of 2017. Included in selling, general and administrative expenses were charges of ~~$14~~$9 million and ~~$22~~$15 million offor acquisition, integration and other action-related costs for the ~~second~~third quarters of 2018 and 2017, respectively. Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of net sales, increased ~~slightly~~ due to ~~planned~~a $14 million bad debt charge related to the Sears Holdings Corporation (“Sears”) bankruptcy filing, investments to support our brands and growth strategies, higher distribution expenses ~~from short term labor inefficiencies~~ and higher proportion of selling, general and administrative costs at our recently acquired businesses, partially offset by continued realization of acquisition synergies and lower acquisition, integration and other action-related costs for the ~~second~~third quarter of 2018 compared to the ~~second~~third quarter of 2017.

Other Highlights

Interest Expense – higher by $4$9 million in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2018 compared to the ~~second~~third quarter of 2017 driven by higher debt balances and a higher weighted average interest rate. Our weighted average interest rate on our outstanding debt was ~~3.87%~~3.95% during the ~~second~~third quarter of 2018, compared to ~~3.76%~~3.84% in the ~~second~~third quarter of 2017.

Income Tax Expense – our effective income tax rate was ~~14.8%~~12.9% and ~~6.0%~~2.0% for the ~~second~~third quarters of 2018 and 2017, respectively. The higher tax rate in 2018 compared to the same period of 2017 is primarily due to certain provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”), specifically the base-broadening provision which imposed a new minimum tax on global intangible low-tax income (“GILTI”)., offset by favorable discrete items recorded in the quarter ended September 29, 2018.

Innerwear operating margin was ~~22.9%~~22.1%, representing a decline from the same period a year ago ~~due to the impact from higher raw material costs and product mix, which was partially offset by lower selling, general and administrative expenses~~ as a result of ~~our prior year’s corporate headcount reduction efforts.~~lower sales volume and higher raw material costs.

Net Sales

Net sales increased 5%4% in the ~~six~~nine months of 2018 compared to the same period of 2017 as a result of the following:

Acquisitions of Bras N Things in 2018 and Alternative Apparel in 2017, which added incremental net sales of ~~$84~~nearly $132 million in the ~~six~~nine months of 2018;

Organic sales on a constant currency basis, defined as sales excluding the impact of foreign currency and businesses acquired within 12 months, increased ~~approximately 50 basis points~~nearly 1% in the ~~six~~nine months of 2018 driven by strong growth in our global Champion and online sales, offset in part by declines in our basic, intimate apparel and Hanes activewear businesses; and

Favorable impact from foreign exchange rates in our International businesses of approximately ~~$60~~$38 million.

Gross Profit

Gross profit as a percentage of sales for the ~~six~~nine months of 2018 was ~~38.9%~~38.8%, ~~a decrease~~an increase from the same period of the prior year ~~of approximately 30~~over 10 basis points. The gross margin ~~decreased as~~increased with expansion in our ~~international~~International segment gross margin and continued realization of acquisition synergies, ~~were more than~~ offset by higher input costs and higher acquisition, integration and other action-related charges. Included in gross profit in the ~~six~~nine months of 2018 and 2017 are charges of ~~$22~~$34 million and ~~$20~~$22 million, respectively, related to acquisition, integration and other action-related costs.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

As a percentage of net sales, our selling, general and administrative expenses were ~~27.4%~~26.4% for the ~~six~~nine months of 2018 compared to ~~27.3%~~25.8% in the same period of 2017. Included in selling, general and administrative expenses were charges of ~~$23~~

$32 million and ~~$45~~$59 million offor acquisition, integration and other action-related costs for the ~~six~~nine months of 2018 and 2017, respectively. Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of net sales, increased ~~slightly~~ due to ~~higher~~a $14 million bad debt charge related to the Sears bankruptcy filing, increased distribution expenses from short term labor inefficiencies and higher proportion of selling, general and administrative costs at our recently acquired businesses, offset partially by continued realization of acquisition synergies, lower acquisition, integration and other action-related costs for the ~~six~~nine months of 2018 compared to 2017 and cost savings realized from the corporate headcount reduction efforts in 2017.

Other Highlights

Interest Expense – higher by $8$17 million for the ~~six~~nine months of 2018 compared to 2017 primarily due to higher debt balances and a higher weighted average interest rate. Our weighted average interest rate on our outstanding debt was ~~3.81%~~3.86% for the ~~six~~nine months of 2018 and ~~3.75%~~3.78% for the ~~six~~nine months of 2017.

Income Tax Expense – our effective income tax rate was ~~15.2%~~14.2% and ~~6.0%~~4.2% for the ~~six~~nine months of 2018 and 2017, respectively. The higher effective income tax rate for the ~~six~~nine months of 2018 compared to 2017 was primarily due to certain provisions of the Tax Act, specifically the base-broadening provision which imposed a new minimum tax on ~~GILTI.~~GILTI, offset by favorable discrete items recorded in the nine months ended September 29, 2018.

Discontinued Operations – the results of our discontinued operations include the operations of two businesses, Dunlop Flooring and Tontine Pillow, which were purchased in the Hanes Australasia acquisition in 2016 and sold during the first quarter of 2017.

¹Borrowing availability under the Accounts Receivable Securitization 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.

At ~~June 30,~~September 29, 2018, we had $398 million in cash and cash equivalents. We currently believe that our existing cash balances and cash generated by operations ~~typically~~(typically in the second half of the ~~year,~~year), together with our available credit capacity, will enable us to comply with the terms of our indebtedness and meet foreseeable liquidity requirements.

The following have impacted or may impact our liquidity:

we have principal and interest obligations under our debt;

we acquired Bras N Things in February 2018 and Alternative Apparel in October 2017 and we may pursue additional strategic business acquisitions in the future;

we expect to continue to invest in efforts to accelerate worldwide omnichannel and global growth initiatives, as well as marketing and brand building;

contributions to our pension plans;

our Board of Directors has authorized a regular quarterly dividend; and

our Board of Directors has authorized share repurchases.

Dividends

In January, April and ~~April~~July of 2018, our Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.15 per share, which were paid in March, June and ~~June~~September of 2018. On ~~July 24,~~October 23, 2018, our Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.15 per share on outstanding shares of common stock to be paid on ~~September 5,~~December 4, 2018 to stockholders of record at the close of business on ~~August 14,~~November 13, 2018.

Share Repurchase Program

In April 2016, our Board of Directors approved the current share repurchase program for up to 40 million shares to be repurchased in open market transactions, subject to market conditions, legal requirements and other factors. We did not repurchase any shares during the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June 30,~~September 29, 2018. For the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~July 1,~~September 30, 2017 we repurchased approximately 15 million shares at a weighted average purchase price of $20.39. The shares were repurchased at a total cost of $300 million. At ~~June 30,~~September 29, 2018, the remaining repurchase authorization totaled approximately 20 million shares. The program does not obligate us to acquire any particular amount of common stock and may be suspended or discontinued at any time at our discretion.

Cash Requirements for Our Business

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. The primary cash requirements of our business are payments to vendors in the normal course of business, capital expenditures, maturities of debt and related interest payments, business acquisitions, contributions to our pension plans, repurchases of our stock and regular quarterly dividend payments. We believe we have sufficient cash and available borrowings for our foreseeable liquidity needs.

There have been no significant changes in the cash requirements for our business from those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2017.

Operating Activities

Our overall liquidity is primarily driven by our cash flow from operations, which is dependent on net income, as well as changes in our working capital. We typically use cash during the first half of the year and generate most of our cash flow in the second half of the year. As compared to prior year, the ~~higher net~~lower cash ~~used by~~generated from operating activities is due to the final Champion Europe contingent consideration payment in the first quarter of 2018, the $15 million pension contribution in the second quarter of 2018, lower accounts receivables collection due to sales generated late in the quarter and increased inventory levels, ~~to support our second half sales projections,~~ offset partially by improved payable terms.

Investing Activities

The increased net cash used by investing activities is primarily the result of the acquisition of Bras N Things in the first quarter of 2018 and an increased capital investment into our business to support our global growth. Cash received from investing activities in 2017 was driven by the dispositions of the Dunlop Flooring and Tontine Pillow businesses which were acquired in conjunction with the Hanes Australasia acquisition.

Financing Activities

The increased net cash from financing activities was primarily the result of less cash outflows for share repurchases and higher borrowings on our loan facilities in 2018 as compared to the same period of 2017.

Financing Arrangements

In March 2018, we amended the Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility. This amendment primarily extended the maturity date to March 2019. In June 2018, ~~the Company~~we amended the Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility to remove certain receivables from being pledged as collateral for the facility. In September 2018, we amended the Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility to remove certain additional receivables from being pledged as collateral for the facility.

In September 2018, we amended the European Revolving Loan Facility primarily to extend the maturity date to September 2019.

As of ~~June 30,~~September 29, 2018, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under our credit facilities. We expect to maintain compliance with these covenants for the foreseeable future, however economic conditions or the occurrence of events discussed under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2017 or other SEC filings could cause noncompliance.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements within the meaning of Item 303(a)(4) of SEC Regulation S-K.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

We have chosen accounting policies that we believe are appropriate to accurately and fairly report our operating results and financial condition in conformity with U.S. GAAP. We apply these accounting policies in a consistent manner. Our significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” to our financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2017.

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 financial statements, or are the most sensitive to change from outside factors, are discussed in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2017. There have been no material changes in these policies from those described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2017.

Item 3.	Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

There have been no significant changes in our market risk exposures from those described in Item 7A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 30, 2017.



Item 4.	Controls and Procedures

As required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b), our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e), as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

In connection with the evaluation required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(d), our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that no changes in our internal control over financial reporting

occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
