FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains information that may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”). Forward-looking statements include all statements that do not relate solely to historical or current facts, and can generally be identified by the use of words such as “may,” “believe,” “will,” “expect,” “project,” “estimate,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “continue” or similar expressions. However, the absence of these words or similar expressions does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. All statements regarding our intent, belief and current expectations about our strategic direction, prospects and future results are forward-looking statements. Management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable as and when made. However, caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements because such statements speak only as of the date when made. We undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. In addition, forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our historical experience and our present expectations or projections. In particular, statements underwith respect to trends associated with our business, our future financial performance and the heading “Outlook” and other informationpotential effects of the global COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q specifically appearing under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” include forward-looking statements.
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 29, 201828, 2019, under the caption “Risk Factors,” and available on the “Investors” section of our corporate website, www.Hanes.com/investors.

(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. Two subsidiaries of the Company close one day 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 20182019 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
Lease AccountingLiquidity and Impact of COVID-19
In February 2016,The Company relies on its cash flows generated from operations and the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2016-02, “Leases (Topic 842),” which requires lesseesborrowing capacity under its credit facilities to recognize a right-of-use assetmeet the cash requirements of its business. The primary cash requirements of its business are payments to employees and a lease liability for all leases that are not short-termvendors in nature.the normal course of business, capital expenditures, maturities of debt and related interest payments, business acquisitions, contributions to its pension plans, repurchases of its stock, regular quarterly dividend payments and income tax payments. The standard alsorapid expansion of the COVID-19 global pandemic has resulted in enhanced quantitativea sharp decline in net sales and qualitative disclosures surrounding leases. The FASB subsequently issued updates to provide clarification on specific topics, including adoption guidance, practical expedients and interim transition disclosure requirements. The new rules were effective for the Companyearnings in the first quarter of 2019. The Company adopted the new rules utilizing the modified retrospective method and recognized2020, which has a $7,977 cumulative effect adjustment in retained earnings at the beginning of the period of adoption. In addition, the Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard which among other things, allowed the Company to carry forward the historical lease classification. The Company did not elect the hindsight practical expedient to determine the lease term for existing leases. Adoption of the new standard resulted in the recording of lease assets and lease liabilities of $507,669 and $535,054, respectively as of December 30, 2018.
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 standard was effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2019. The adoption of the new accounting rules did not have a materialcorresponding impact on the Company’s liquidity. The Company is focused on preserving its liquidity and managing its cash flow during these unprecedented conditions with preemptive actions to enhance its ability to meet its short-term liquidity needs. Such actions include, but are not limited to, operating manufacturing and distribution facilities on a demand-adjusted basis; reducing discretionary spending such as media and marketing expenses; focused working capital management; reducing capital expenditures; suspending its share buyback program until further notice; reducing payroll costs, through employee furloughs and pay cuts; drawing down on its Revolving Loan Facility and amending certain existing debt facilities.
In March 2020, in response to the uncertainty of the circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 global pandemic, the Company drew down $630,000 under the Revolving Loan Facility as a precautionary measure, to provide the Company with additional financial condition, resultsflexibility to manage its business with a safety-first emphasis during the unknown duration and impact of operationsthe COVID-19 global pandemic. The Company subsequently repaid $490,000 of its borrowings under the Revolving Loan Facility in April 2020.
As of March 28, 2020, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants under its credit facilities and other outstanding indebtedness. In April 2020, given the rapidly changing environment and level of uncertainty being created by the COVID-19 global pandemic and the associated impact on future earnings, the Company amended its Senior Secured Credit Facility (as discussed in Note, “Debt and Notes Payable”) prior to any potential covenant violation in order to modify the financial covenants and to provide operating flexibility during the COVID-19 crisis. After obtaining the debt amendment, which provides relief from certain covenants for a 15-month period and adds additional financial and non-financial covenants, the Company expects to maintain compliance with its covenants for at least one year from the issuance of these financial statements based on its current expectations and forecasts. If economic conditions caused by the COVID-19 global pandemic worsen and the Company’s earnings and operating cash flows do not start to recover as currently estimated by management, this could impact the Company’s ability to maintain compliance with its amended financial covenants and require the Company to seek additional amendments to its Senior Secured Credit Facility. If the Company is not able to obtain such necessary additional amendments, this would lead to an event of default and, if not cured timely, its lenders could require the Company to repay its outstanding debt. In that situation, the Company may not be able to raise sufficient debt or cash flows.equity capital, or divest assets, to refinance or repay the lenders.

(2)Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Financial Instruments - Credit Losses
In June 2016, the FASBFinancial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments,” which requires a financial asset measured at amortized cost basis to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The new accounting rules eliminate the probable initial recognition threshold and, instead, reflect an entity’s current estimate of all expected credit losses.

The new accounting rules will bewere effective for the Company in the first quarter of 2020. TheAs a result of adopting the new rules, the Company doeswill compare the estimated fair value of its reporting units to their respective carrying values when evaluating the recoverability of goodwill. If the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its fair value, an impairment charge will be recognized for the amount by which its carrying value exceeds the reporting unit’s fair value; however, the loss recognized will not expectexceed the goodwill allocated to the reporting unit.

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

(5)Leases
The Company determines whether an arrangement is a lease at inception. The Company has operating leases for real estate (primarily retail stores and operating facilities) and certain equipment. The Company’s finance leases are not material. Leases with a term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet; the Company recognizes lease expense for these

(unaudited)

leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For lease agreements entered into after adoption of Topic 842, the Company combines lease and nonlease components as a single component for all asset classes.
The Company’s leases have remaining lease terms of one to 38 years, some of which include options to extend the leases for up to 15 years, and some of which include options to terminate the leases within one year. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company’s sole discretion. In general, for leased retail real estate, the Company will not include renewal options in the underlying lease term. However, if a situation arises where the lessor has control over the option periods, then the Company will include these periods within the lease term. The depreciable life of assets and leasehold improvements are limited by the expected lease term.
Certain of the Company’s lease agreements include rental payments based on a percentage of retail sales over contractual levels and others include rental payments adjusted periodically for inflation. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
Total operating lease costs, which includes short-term leases and variable cost, were $53,023 and $168,784 for the quarter and nine months ended September 28, 2019, respectively. For the quarter and nine months ended September 28, 2019, variable costs of $20,001 and $49,303 were included in total operating lease costs, respectively. Short-term lease costs were immaterial for the quarter and nine months ended September 28, 2019.
The following table presents supplemental cash flow and non-cash information related to leases:
 Nine Months Ended

2019
Cash paid for amounts included in the measurement of lease liabilities - operating cash flows from leases$114,805
Right-of-use assets obtained in exchange for lease obligations - non-cash activity$54,524

As most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. For operating leases that commenced prior to December 30, 2018, the Company used the incremental borrowing rate on December 27, 2018.
The following table presents supplemental information related to leases at September 28, 2019:
Weighted average remaining lease term5.4 years

(6)(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 during the period. Diluted EPS was calculated to give effect to all potentially issuable dilutive shares of common stock using the treasury stock method.
The reconciliation of basic to diluted weighted average shares outstanding is as follows:

As of SeptemberMarch 28, 2019,2020, the Company had $995,565$45,924 of borrowing availability under the $1,000,000 Revolving Loan Facility after taking into account $4,435$4,076 of standby and trade letters of credit issued and outstanding under this facility. In March 2020, in response to the uncertainty of the circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 global pandemic, the Company drew down $630,000 under the Revolving Loan Facility as a precautionary measure to provide the Company with additional financial flexibility to manage its business with a safety-first emphasis during the unknown duration and impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic. The Company subsequently repaid $490,000 of its borrowings under the Revolving Loan Facility in April 2020.
The Company entered into an accounts receivable securitization facility (the “Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility”) in November 2007. The Company’s maximum borrowing capacity under the Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility was $300,000$175,000 as of SeptemberMarch 28, 2019.2020. Borrowings under the Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility are 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 and also subject to a fluctuating facility limit, not to exceed $300,000.$225,000. The Company had $65,000 of0 borrowing availability under the Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility at SeptemberMarch 28, 2019.2020.
The Company had $33,749$5,958 of borrowing availability under the Australian Revolving Loan Facility, 0 borrowing availability under the European Revolving Loan Facility and $119,072$134,716 of borrowing availability under other international lines of credit facilities after taking into account outstanding borrowings and letters of credit outstanding under the applicable facilityfacilities at SeptemberMarch 28, 2019.2020.
In March 2019,2020, the Company amended the Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility. This amendment primarily increaseddecreased the fluctuating facility limit to $300,000$225,000 (previously $225,000)$300,000) and extended the maturity date to March 2020.2021.
In June 2019, the Company paid the outstanding balance and terminated the Australian Term A-1 loan which would have matured in July 2019.
In July 2019, the Company refinanced the European Revolving Loan Facility primarily to extend the maturity date to September 2020.
As of SeptemberMarch 28, 2019,2020, the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants under its credit facilities.facilities and other outstanding indebtedness. The Company continues to monitor its covenant compliance carefully. Under the terms of its Senior Secured Credit Facility, among other financial and non-financial covenants,the Company is required to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio and a maximum leverage ratio. The interest coverage ratio covenant is the ratio of the Company’s EBITDA for the preceding four fiscal quarters to its consolidated total interest expense and the maximum leverage ratio covenant is the ratio of the Company’s total debt to EBITDA for the preceding four fiscal quarters. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation expense and amortization, as computed pursuant to the Senior Secured Credit Facility.

In April 2020, given the rapidly changing environment and level of uncertainty being created by the COVID-19 global pandemic and the associated impact on future earnings, the Company amended its Senior Secured Credit Facility prior to any potential covenant violation in order to modify the financial covenants and to provide operating flexibility during the COVID-19 crisis. The amendment effects changes to certain provisions and covenants under the Senior Secured Credit Facility during the period beginning with the fiscal quarter ending June 27, 2020 and continuing through the fiscal quarter ending July 3, 2021 (such period of time, the “Covenant Relief Period”), including: (a) suspension of compliance with the maximum leverage ratio; (b) reduction of the minimum interest coverage ratio from 3.00 to 1.00 to (i) 2.00 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarters ending June 27, 2020 through April 3, 2021 and (ii) 2.25 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending July 3, 2021; (c) a minimum last twelve months EBITDA covenant of $625,000 as of June 27, 2020, $505,000 as of September 26, 2020, $445,000 as of January 2, 2021, $435,000 as of April 3, 2021 and $505,000 as of July 3, 2021; (d) a minimum liquidity covenant of $300,000, increasing to $400,000 upon certain conditions; (e) increased limitations on investments, acquisitions, restricted payments and the incurrence of indebtedness; and (f) anti-cash hoarding provisions. During the Covenant Relief Period, the applicable margin and applicable commitment fee margin will be calculated assuming the leverage ratio is greater than or equal to 4.50 to 1.00. The amendment also permanently amends the definition of “leverage ratio” for purposes of the financial covenant calculation to remove the maximum amount of cash allowed to be netted from the definition of “indebtedness” and to allow for the netting of cash from certain foreign subsidiaries. After obtaining the debt amendment, the Company expects to maintain compliance with its covenants for at least one year from the issuance of these financial statements based on its current expectations and forecasts. If economic conditions caused by the COVID-19 global pandemic worsen and the Company’s earnings and operating cash flows do not start to recover as currently estimated by management, this could impact the Company’s ability to maintain compliance with its amended financial covenants and require the Company to seek additional amendments to its Senior Secured Credit Facility. If the Company is not able to obtain such necessary additional amendments, this would lead to an event of default and, if not cured timely, its lenders could require the Company to repay its outstanding debt. In that situation, the Company may not be able to raise sufficient debt or equity capital, or divest assets, to refinance or repay the lenders.

Cash Flow Hedges
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$16,684.approximately $21,396. The Company is hedging exposure to the variability in future cash flows for forecasted transactions over the next 1514 months.

Net Investment Hedges
In July 2019, the Company entered into 2 pay-fixed rate, receive-fixed rate cross-currency swap contracts with a total notional amount of €300,000 that were designated as hedges of a portion of the beginning balance of the Company’s net investment in its European subsidiaries. These cross-currency swap contracts, which mature on May 15, 2024, swap U.S. Dollar-denominateddollar-denominated interest payments for Euro-denominated interest payments, thereby economically converting a portion of the Company’s fixed-rate 4.625% Senior Notes to a fixed-rate 2.3215% Euro-denominated obligation.
In July 2019, the Company also designated its 3.5% Senior Notes with a carrying value of €500,000, which is a nonderivative financial instrument, as a hedge of a portion of the beginning balance of the Company’s European net investment.
Changes in the fair value of derivative and nonderivative instruments designated as net investment hedges are recognized in the cumulative translation adjustment component of AOCI, offsetting the translation adjustment of the net investment being hedged. Net investment hedge effectiveness is being assessed and hedge results are being measured on an after-tax basis. The interest component of the cross-currency swap contracts is excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness and is initially recorded in the cumulative translation adjustment component of AOCI. This excluded component is amortized in earnings using a systematic and rational method over the term of the cross-currency swap contracts and reported in the “Interest expense, net” line in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Cash flows from the periodic and final settlements of the cross-currency swap contracts will be reported as cash flows from investing activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows because the hedged item is a net investment in a foreign subsidiary, and the cash paid or received from acquiring or selling the subsidiary would typically be classified as investing.

Mark to Market Hedges
A derivative used as a hedging instrument whose change in fair value is recognized to act as a hedge against changes in the values of the hedged item is designated as a mark to market hedge. The Company uses foreign exchange derivative contracts as hedges against the impact of foreign exchange fluctuations on existing accounts receivable and payable balances and intercompany lending transactions denominated in foreign currencies. 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:

Overview
Hanesbrands Inc. (collectively with its subsidiaries, “we,” “us,” “our,” or the “Company”) is a socially responsible leading marketer of everyday basic innerwear and activewear apparel in the Americas, Europe, Australia and Asia/Pacific under some of the world’s strongest apparel brands, including Hanes, Champion, Bonds, DIM, Maidenform, DIM, Bali, Playtex, Lovable, Bras N Things, Nur Die/Nur Der, Alternative, L’eggs, JMS/Just My Size, Lovable, Wonderbra, Berlei and Gear for Sports. 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 brands hold either the number one or number two market position by units sold in many of the product categories and geographies in which we compete.
Our operations are managed and reported in three operating segments, each of which is a reportable segment for financial reporting purposes: Innerwear, Activewear and International. These segments are organized principally by product category and geographic location. Each segment has its own management team that is responsible for the operations of the segment’s businesses, but the segments share a common supply chain and media and marketing platforms. Other consists of our U.S. value-based (“outlet”) stores and U.S. hosiery business.
Impact of COVID-19 on Our Business
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the novel strain of coronavirus (COVID-19) a global pandemic and recommended containment and mitigation measures worldwide. The pandemic and these containment and mitigation measures have led to adverse impacts on the U.S. and global economies. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted our business operations and results of operations for the first quarter of 2020 as described in more detail under “Condensed Consolidated Results of Operations - First Quarter Ended March 28, 2020 Compared with First Quarter Ended March 30, 2019” below, due to decreased customer traffic and retail store closures worldwide. The evolving COVID-19 pandemic could continue to have an adverse impact on our results of operations and liquidity; the operations of our suppliers, vendors and customers; and on our employees as a result of quarantines, facility closures, and travel and logistics restrictions. While the ultimate health and economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic is highly uncertain, we expect that our business operations and results of operations, including our net sales, earnings and cash flows, will be materially impacted for at least the balance of 2020, as a result of:
temporary closure of our owned and operated retail stores;
decreased customer traffic in retail stores;
changes in consumer confidence and consumer spending habits, including spending for the merchandise that we sell and negative trends in consumer purchasing patterns due to changes in consumers’ disposable income, credit availability and debt levels;
decreased discretionary consumer-directed channel spending independent of store closures;

decreased wholesale channel sales and increased likelihood of wholesale customer financial distress, including requests for extended payment terms or potential payment defaults;
disruption to our global supply chain including the manufacturing, supply, distribution, transportation and delivery of our products;
decreased productivity due to travel bans, work-from-home policies or shelter-in-place orders; and
a slowdown in the U.S. and global economies, and an uncertain global economic outlook or a potential credit crisis.
The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic impacts our business operations, financial results, and liquidity will depend on numerous evolving factors that we may not be able to accurately predict or assess, including the duration and scope of the pandemic; our response to and ability to mitigate the impact of the pandemic; the negative impact it has on global and regional economies and economic activity, including the duration and magnitude of its impact on unemployment rates and consumer discretionary spending; its short- and longer-term impact on the levels of consumer confidence; the ability of our suppliers, vendors and customers to successfully address the impacts of the pandemic; actions governments, businesses and individuals take in response to the pandemic; and how quickly economies recover after the COVID-19 pandemic subsides.
We expect the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to lead to continued net sales decreases due to our retail store closures and reduced net sales and earnings for our wholesale customers, some of which may experience financial distress or declare bankruptcy. Reduced retail sales or additional customer store closures and customer bankruptcies could reduce or eliminate our anticipated income and cash flows, which would negatively affect our results of operations and liquidity. Even if customers do not declare bankruptcy, they may seek to extend payment terms or be unable or unwilling to pay us amounts that we are entitled to on a timely basis or at all, which would adversely affect our sales and liquidity. Also, we could be required to record increased excess and obsolete inventory reserves due to decreased net sales or noncash impairment charges related to our intangible assets or goodwill due to reduced cash flows. Additionally, our retail stores and many of our manufacturing facilities are closed. Accordingly, these operations are not generating sales sufficient to offset fixed operating expenses, which is adversely affecting our income and could in the future adversely affect the value of our owned and leased properties, potentially requiring us to recognize significant noncash impairment charges.
We have been taking steps to mitigate the potential risks to us posed by the spread and related circumstances and impacts of COVID-19. We are focused on addressing these recent challenges presented by the COVID-19 global pandemic by preserving our liquidity and managing our cash flow with preemptive actions designed to enhance our ability to meet our short-term liquidity needs. Such actions include, but are not limited to, focusing on channels that continue to generate sales, including mass retail and online; developing a product line of masks and other personal protective garments; operating our manufacturing and distribution facilities on a demand-adjusted basis; reducing our discretionary spending such as media and marketing expenses; focused working capital management; reducing capital expenditures; suspending our share buyback program until further notice; reducing payroll costs, through employee furloughs and pay cuts; drawing down on our Revolving Loan Facility and amending certain existing debt facilities. These efforts may not be enough to offset anticipated declines in net sales and we may not be able to access sufficient additional working capital to meet our liquidity needs. See “The novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) global pandemic has had and is expected to continue to have an adverse impact on our business.”in Part II, Item 1A. Risk Factors of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Outlook for 20192020
We estimate our 2019issued first-quarter and full-year 2020 guidance as follows:
Net saleson February 7, 2020, which excluded any impact from the spread of $6.935 billionthe COVID-19 global pandemic. Due to $6.985 billion, operating profit of $900 millionthe uncertainty and rapidly changing environment relating to $925 million,the pandemic, on March 25, 2020, we withdrew the guidance for the first quarter and net income of $590 to $612 million;
Pre-tax acquisition, integrationfull year and other action-related costs of approximately $55 million reflected in operating profit;
Interest expense and other expenses of approximately $213 million combined;
An annual effective tax rate of approximately 14%;
Cash flow from operations of $700 million to $800 million; and
Capital expenditure investment of approximately $90 million to $100 million.are not providing an updated outlook at this time.
Seasonality and Other Factors
OurAbsent the effects of the COVID-19 global pandemic, our operating results are typically subject to some variability due to seasonality and other factors. For instance, we generally have historically generated higher sales during the back-to-school and holiday shopping seasons and during periods of cooler weather, which benefits certain product categories such as fleece. Sales levels in any period are also impacted by customer decisions to increase or decrease their inventory levels in response to anticipated consumer demand. Our customers may cancel orders, change delivery schedules or change the mix of products ordered with minimal notice to us. Media, advertising and promotion expenses may vary from period to period during a fiscal year depending on the timing of our advertising campaigns for retail selling seasons and product introductions. We expect the duration and scope of the COVID-19 global pandemic to alter these patterns during 2020.

Although the majority of our products are replenishment in nature and tend to be purchased by consumers on a planned, rather than on an impulse, basis, our sales are impacted by discretionary spending by consumers. Discretionary spending is affected by many factors that are outside our control, including, among others, general business conditions, interest rates, inflation, consumer debt levels, the availability of consumer credit, currency exchange rates, taxation, energy prices, unemployment trends and other matters that influence consumer confidence and spending. 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. TheseIn addition, the COVID-19 global pandemic may result in decreased consumer confidence and lower consumer spending. As a result, 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 seasonal and replenishable activewear, fluctuate from time to time. In addition, sales attributable to higher and lower margin products within the same product category fluctuate from time to time. Our customers may change the mix of products ordered with minimal notice to us, which makes trends in product sales mix difficult to predict. However, certain changes in product sales mix are seasonal in nature, as sales of socks, 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 consumers’ preferences and discretionary spending.
Highlights fromOverview of the ThirdFirst Quarter Ended SeptemberMarch 28, 20192020
The COVID-19 global pandemic adversely impacted our business operations and results of operations for the first quarter of 2020. Prior to the pandemic’s late-first quarter disruption of economies around the world, we experienced strong net sales and profit trends. As the COVID-19 virus spread around the world in March, net sales and profits across all our segments decreased dramatically.
Key financial highlightsresults are as follows:
Total net sales in the thirdfirst quarter of 20192020 were $1.87$1.3 billion, compared with $1.85$1.6 billion in the same period of 2018,2019, representing a 1% increase.17% decrease.
Operating profit increased 5%decreased 77% to $270$34 million in the thirdfirst quarter of 2019,2020, compared with $257$150 million in the same period of 2018.2019. As a percentage of sales, operating profit was 14.4%2.6% in the thirdfirst quarter of 20192020 compared to 13.9%9.4% in the same period of 2018.2019. Included within operating profit were acquisition, integrationrestructuring and other action-related charges of $10$29 million and $21 million for the quarters ended SeptemberMarch 28, 20192020 and September 29, 2018,March 30, 2019, respectively.
DilutedWe estimate the impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic reduced net sales by approximately $181 million, operating profit by approximately $86 million and diluted earnings per share was $0.51by approximately $0.20.
Operating cash flows increased $111 million in the first quarter of 2020 compared to the first quarter of 2019.
As part of our cash deployment strategy, prior to the global expansion of COVID-19, we entered into transactions to repurchase approximately 14.5 million shares at a weighted average repurchase price of $13.83 per share. The shares were repurchased at a total cost of $200 million.
In March 2020, in response to the uncertainty of the circumstances surrounding the COVID-19 global pandemic and $0.47as a precautionary measure to further strengthen our cash position, we drew down $630 million under the Revolving Loan Facility to provide us with additional financial flexibility to manage our business with a safety-first emphasis during the unknown duration and impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic. We subsequently repaid $490 million of this borrowing in the third quarters of 2019 and 2018, respectively.April 2020.

Net Sales
Through mid-March, we saw strong net sales and profit performance across our businesses, particularly within the Innerwear and Activewear segments. Shipments slowed nearly to a halt worldwide in the final two weeks of March as we and our retail customers closed stores and customer orders were canceled in response to the global expansion of COVID-19 and net sales and profit trends across all segments decreased dramatically.
Net sales increased 1%decreased 17% during the thirdfirst quarter of 20192020 primarily due to the following:
The disruption of our U.S. and International businesses related to the negative effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, including closures of retail stores owned and operated by us, as well as canceled orders from our wholesale brick- and-mortar customers, decreased sales an estimated $181 million;
Sales on a constant currency basis, defined asThe exit of our C9 Champion program at Target and the DKNY Intimates license in 2019 which, together, represented approximately $94 million of net sales excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates, increased 2% in the first quarter as a result of sales growth in Europe, Asia, Australia2019; and the Americas driven primarily by strong sales growth in our global Champion brand and our international innerwear business.

These decreases were partially offset by increased materials costs, planned investments to support our brandslower variable selling, general and future growth initiatives, unfavorable impact from foreign exchange rates and higher variable compensation accruals.administrative expenses as a result of decreased sales volume. Included in operating profit in the thirdfirst quarter of 20192020 and 20182019 were charges of $10$29 million and $21 million, respectively, related to acquisition, integrationrestructuring and other action-related costs.

Other Highlights
Other Expenses – Other expenses increaseddecreased $1 million in the thirdfirst quarter of 2020 compared to the first quarter of 2019 compared to the third quarter of 2018 primarily due to higherlower pension expense and lower funding fees for sales of accounts receivable to financial institutions in 2019.2020.
Interest Expense – Interest expense was lower by $10$11 million in the thirdfirst quarter of 2020 compared to the first quarter of 2019 compared to the third quarter of 2018 driven by lower debt balances and the impact of the cross-currency swap contracts entered into in July 2019, partially offset bylower outstanding debt balances during the quarter and a higherlower weighted average interest rate on our borrowings.

Net Sales
Net sales increased 4% during the nine months of 2019 primarily due to the following:
Our acquisition of Bras N Things in February 2018, which contributed non-organic net sales of $18 million in the nine months of 2019;
Organic sales on a constant currency basis, defined as sales excluding the impact of foreign exchange rates and businesses acquired within 12 months, increased 5% in the nine months of 2019, as a result of sales growth in Europe, Asia, Australia and the Americas driven primarily by strong sales growth in our global Champion brand and our international innerwear business.
Partially offset by:
Unfavorable impact from foreign exchange rates in our International businesses of approximately $103 million; and
A decrease in U.S. innerwear sales driven by a decline in net sales in our intimate apparel business.
Operating Profit
Operating profit as a percentage of sales was 12.5%, an increase from the same period a year ago of approximately 10 basis points. Price increases taken in the nine months of 2019 and higher margin product sales mix were partially offset by increased materials costs, planned investments to support our brands and future growth initiatives, unfavorable impact from foreign exchange rates and higher variable compensation accruals. Included in operating profit in the nine months of 2019 and 2018 were charges of $44 million and $66 million, respectively, related to acquisition, integration and other action-related costs. Operating profit included a bad debt charge of approximately $14 million in the nine months ended September 29, 2018 related to the Sears bankruptcy filing.
Other Highlights
Other Expenses – Other expenses were higher by $4 million in the nine months of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 primarily due to higher pension expense and higher funding fees for sales of accounts receivable to financial institutions in 2019.
Interest Expense – Interest expense was lower by $9 million in the nine months of 2019 compared to 2018, driven by lower debt balances and the impact of the cross-currency swap contracts entered into in July 2019 partially offset by a higher weighted average interest rate on our borrowings. Our weighted average interest rate on our outstanding debt was 4.13% for the nine months of 2019, compared to 3.86% for the nine months of 2018.
Income Tax Expense – Our effective income tax rate was 14.1% and 14.2% for the nine months of 2019 and 2018, respectively. Income tax expense increased $4 million in the nine months of 2019 compared to 2018 due to the increase in pre-tax income.

Innerwear
Innerwear net sales decreased 3% driven primarily by a 7% and 1% decline in net sales in our intimate apparel and basics businesses, respectively. Net sales in our intimate apparel business decreased as a result of declines in our bras product category, which continues to be impacted by door closings and the challenging retail landscape within the mid-tier and department store channel. The decline in the bras product category was partially offset by growth in our shapewear product category.
Innerwear operating margin was 21.7%, representing a decrease from 22.0% in the prior year period as a result of lower volume, higher materials costs, sales mix and planned increases in investments to support our brands partially offset by price increases implemented in the first quarter of 2019.
Activewear 
Activewear net sales increased 7%. Core Champion sales within the Activewear segment, which we define as Champion sales outside of the mass retail channel, were up over 40% in the nine months of 2019, driven by strong consumer demand and growth across channels. Sales declined in the remainder of our activewear business due to our previous exit from commodity programs within the mass retail channel as we focused on remixing parts of our activewear business to branded products and softer trends in the printwear channel.
Activewear operating margin was 15.0%, representing an increase from 14.5% in the prior year as a result of improved Champion profitability, higher margin product sales mix from our remixing activity and pricing, partially offset by higher materials costs and higher selling, general and administrative expenses, reflecting an increase in investments to support our brands and growth initiatives.
International
Net sales in the International segment increased 8% as a result of the following:
Our acquisition of Bras N Things in the first quarter of 2018, which contributed non-organic net sales of $18 million;
Organic sales on a constant currency basis, defined as sales excluding the impact of foreign currency and businesses acquired within 12 months, increased 13%, driven by growth in both our innerwear and activewear businesses.

Partially offset by:
Unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange rates of approximately $103 million.
International operating margin was 15.0%, an increase from prior year period of 14.6%, primarily due to increased efficiencies of scale and the continued realization of acquisition synergies, coupled with high margin contributions from the acquired Bras N Things business.
Other
Other net sales were lower as a result of continued declines in hosiery sales in the United States partially offset by increased traffic at our retail outlet stores. Operating margin decreased primarily due to the decrease in sales volume in hosiery.
Corporate
Corporate expenses included certain administrative costs including acquisition, integration and other action-related charges. Corporate expenses were flat in the nine months of 2019 compared to the same period in 2018 primarily due to lower acquisition, integration and other action-related charges and lower bad debt expense as a result of a charge of approximately $14 million recorded in the third quarter of 2018 related to the Sears bankruptcy filing offset by an increase in variable compensation accruals. Supply chain actions include the reduction of overhead costs, principally within our Western Hemisphere network.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Requirements and Trends and Uncertainties Affecting Liquidity
We rely on our cash flows generated from operations and the borrowing capacity under our credit facilities to meet the cash requirements of our business. The primary cash requirements of our business are payments to our employees and 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, regular quarterly dividend payments and income tax payments. The rapid expansion of the COVID-19 global pandemic has resulted in a sharp decline in net sales and earnings in the first quarter of 2020, which has a corresponding impact on our liquidity. We are focused on preserving our liquidity and managing our cash flow during these unprecedented conditions with preemptive actions to enhance our ability to meet our short-term liquidity needs. Such actions include, but are not limited to, operating our manufacturing and distribution facilities on a demand-adjusted basis; reducing our discretionary spending such as media and marketing expenses; focused working capital management; reducing capital expenditures; suspending our share buyback program until further notice; reducing payroll costs, through employee furloughs and pay cuts; drawing down on our Revolving Loan Facility and amending certain existing debt facilities.

In April 2020, given the rapidly changing environment and level of uncertainty being created by the COVID-19 global pandemic and the associated impact on future earnings, we amended our Senior Secured Credit Facility prior to any potential covenant violation in order to modify the financial covenants and to provide operating flexibility during the COVID-19 crisis. The amendment effects changes to certain provisions and covenants under the Senior Secured Credit Facility during the period beginning with the fiscal quarter ending June 27, 2020 and continuing through the fiscal quarter ending July 3, 2021 (such period of time, the “Covenant Relief Period”), including: (a) suspension of compliance with the maximum leverage ratio; (b) reduction of the minimum interest coverage ratio from 3.00 to 1.00 to (i) 2.00 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarters ending June 27, 2020 through April 3, 2021 and (ii) 2.25 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending July 3, 2021; (c) a minimum last twelve months EBITDA covenant of $625 million as of June 27, 2020, $505 million as of September 26, 2020, $445 million as of January 2, 2021, $435 million as of April 3, 2021 and $505 million as of July 3, 2021; (d) a minimum liquidity covenant of $300 million, increasing to $400 million upon certain conditions; (e) increased limitations on investments, acquisitions, restricted payments and the incurrence of indebtedness; and (f) anti-cash hoarding provisions. During the Covenant Relief Period, the applicable margin and applicable commitment fee margin will be calculated assuming the leverage ratio is greater than or equal to 4.50 to 1.00. The amendment also permanently amends the definition of “leverage ratio” for purposes of the financial covenant calculation to remove the maximum amount of cash allowed to be netted from the definition of “indebtedness” and to allow for the netting of cash from certain foreign subsidiaries. After obtaining the debt amendment, we expect to maintain compliance with our covenants for at least one year from the issuance of these financial statements based on our current expectations and forecasts. If economic conditions caused by the COVID-19 global pandemic worsen and our earnings and operating cash flows do not start to recover as currently estimated by us, this could impact our ability to maintain compliance with our amended financial covenants and require us to seek additional amendments to our Senior Secured Credit Facility. If we are not able to obtain such necessary additional amendments, this would lead to an event of default and, if not cured timely, our lenders could require us to repay our outstanding debt. In that situation, we may not be able to raise sufficient debt or equity capital, or divest assets, to refinance or repay the lenders.
We cannot assure you that our assumptions used to estimate our liquidity requirements will remain accurate due to the unprecedented nature of the disruption to our operations and the unpredictability of the COVID-19 global pandemic. As a consequence, our estimates of the duration of the pandemic and the severity of the impact on our future earnings and cash flows could change and have a material impact on our results of operations and financial condition. We believe we have sufficient cash and available borrowings for our foreseeable liquidity needs.
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. We expect our top priorities of our cash deployment strategy in the future to include organic growth (via capital expenditures), debt prepayments and dividends. After funding those priorities, to the extent there is remaining cash or borrowing capacity available, we generally intend to invest in strategic acquisitions and share repurchases.
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 29, 2018.
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash generated from global operations and cash available under our Revolving Loan Facility, our Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility and our international loan facilities, including our Australian Revolving Loan Facility and our European Revolving Loan Facility.

In March 2020, we drew down $630 million under our Revolving Loan Facility as a precautionary measure, to provide us with additional financial flexibility to manage our business with a safety-first emphasis during the unknown duration and impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic.
We had the following borrowing capacity and availability under our credit facilities as of SeptemberMarch 28, 2019:2020:

We currently believe that our existing cash balances and cash generated by operations (typically in the second half of the year), together with our borrowing availability, 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:
The negative impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic on our business as discussed above under “Impact of COVID-19 on Our Business”.

For the quarter ended March 28, 2020 and prior to the expansion of COVID-19, we entered into transactions to repurchase approximately 14.5 million shares of our common stock at a total cost of $200 million. At March 28, 2020, the remaining repurchase authorization under our current share repurchase program totaled approximately 25.5 million shares. While we may repurchase additional shares of our common stock in the future, the program has been suspended in connection with the amendment to our Senior Secured Credit Facility described above.
We have historically paid a regular quarterly dividend. The declaration of any future dividends and, if declared, the amount of any such dividends, will be subject to our actual future earnings, capital requirements, regulatory restrictions, debt covenants, other contractual restrictions and to the discretion of our Board of Directors.
We have principal and interest obligations under our debt.debt and ongoing financial covenants under those debt facilities, even after taking into account recent amendments.
We may pursue strategic business acquisitions in the future.
We expect to continue to investhave invested in efforts to accelerate worldwide omnichannel and global growth initiatives, as well as marketing and brand building. We anticipate capital expenditures to decrease for the remainder of the year compared to the prior year as we tightly manage spending to help mitigate the potential negative impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic on our business and liquidity.
We expect to continue to invest in efforts to improve operating efficiencies and lower costs.
We may pursue strategic business acquisitions in the future.
We made a contribution of $26$25 million to our U.S. pension plan in the nine monthsquarter ended SeptemberMarch 28, 2019.2020. We may also elect to make additional voluntary contributions.
We may increase or decrease the portion of the current-year income of our foreign subsidiaries that we remit to the United States, which could impact our effective income tax rate. We have also reevaluatedConsistent with our reinvestmentinvestment strategy with regardsas it pertains to our historichistorical foreign earnings which were taxed as part of the Tax Act andDecember 28, 2019, we intend to remit historical foreign earnings totaling $1.4approximately $1.0 billion.
We are obligated to make installment payments over an eight-year period related to our transition tax liability resulting from the implementation of the Tax Act, which began in 2018, in addition to any estimated income taxes due based on current year taxable income. In the nine monthsquarters ended SeptemberMarch 28, 20192020 and September 29, 2018,March 30, 2019, we made no installment payments of $7 million and $13 million, respectively, on our transition tax liability and have a remaining balance due of approximately $100$101 million to be paid in installment payments through 2025.

We may repurchase sharesare making more than 320 million face masks and expect to make more than 20 million medical gowns for the U.S. government. We are also ramping up production to supply masks to large employers seeking to reopen business operations after being closed as a result of the Company’s common stock underCOVID-19 global pandemic.
We expect the current share repurchase program, which has been previously approved by our Board of Directors.

Operating Activities
Our overall liquidity is primarilyhas historically been driven by our strong cash flow provided by operating activities, which is dependent on net income and changes in our working capital.capital, and is subject to certain risks related to the COVID-19 global pandemic. 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 the prior year, the higherlower net cash generatedused by operating activities was due to higher profitability and improved working capital management, specifically related to the reduction of inventory levels, offsetand accounts receivable. Cash used by operating activities includes a $25 million and a $26 million pension contribution made in the first quarter of 2019. Cash generated by operating2020 and 2019, respectively.
Investing Activities
Investing activities in the nine months ended September 29, 2018 included the final Champion Europe contingent consideration payment of $32 million made in the first quarter of 20182020 and a $15 million pension contribution in the second quarter of 2018.
Investing Activities
The decrease in cash used by investing activities was2019 primarily the result of the acquisition of Bras N Things in the first quarter of 2018. During the third quarter of 2019, we paid $21 million of the indemnification escrow related to the Bras N Things acquisition. Additionally, we increasedinclude capital investments into our business to support our global growth initiatives. We anticipate capital expenditures to decrease for the remainder of the year compared to the prior year.year as we tightly manage spending to help mitigate the potential negative impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic on our business and liquidity.
Financing Activities
Net cash from financing activities decreasedincreased primarily as a result of lowerhigher borrowings on our loan facilitiesRevolving Loan Facilities in 2019the first quarter of 2020 as compared to the same period of 2018 including2019. We increased our paymentborrowings in the first quarter of 2020 primarily to strengthen our cash position and to provide us with additional financial flexibility to manage our business with a safety-first emphasis during the unknown duration and impact of the outstanding balance and termination of the Australian Term A-1 loan in the second quarter of 2019.COVID-19 global pandemic.
Financing Arrangements
InAs discussed above, in March 2019,2020, we drew down $630 million under our Revolving Loan Facility to further strengthen our cash position. Additionally, in March 2020, we amended the Accounts Receivable Securitization Facility. This amendment primarily increaseddecreased the fluctuating facility limit to $300$225 million (previously $225$300 million) and extended the maturity date to March 2020.2021.
We believe our financing structure provides a secure base to support our operations and key business strategies. As of SeptemberMarch 28, 2019,2020, we were in compliance with all financial covenants under our credit facilities and other outstanding indebtedness. We continue to monitor our covenant compliance carefully. WeUnder the terms of our Senior Secured Credit Facility, we are required to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio and a maximum leverage ratio. The interest coverage ratio covenant is the ratio of our EBITDA for the preceding four fiscal quarters to our consolidated total interest expense and the leverage ratio covenant is the ratio of our total debt to EBITDA for the preceding four fiscal quarters. EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest, income taxes, depreciation expense and amortization, as computed pursuant to the Senior Secured Credit Facility. In April 2020, given the rapidly changing environment and level of uncertainty being created by the COVID-19 global pandemic and the associated impact on future earnings, we amended our Senior Secured Credit Facility prior to any potential covenant violation in order to modify the financial covenants and to provide operating flexibility during the COVID-19 crisis. After obtaining the debt amendment discussed above, we expect to maintain compliance with our covenants forduring the foreseeable future,Covenant Relief Period, 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 29, 201828, 2019 and in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q or other SEC filings could cause noncompliance.
In July 2019, we entered into two pay-fixed rate, receive-fixed rate cross-currency swap contracts with a total notional amount of €300 million that were designated as hedges of a portion of the beginning balance of our net investment in our European subsidiaries. These cross-currency swap contracts, which mature on May 15, 2024, swap U.S. Dollar-denominated interest payments for Euro-denominated interest payments, thereby economically converting a portion of our fixed-rate 4.625% Senior Notes to a fixed-rate 2.3215% Euro-denominated obligation.

In July 2019, we refinanced the European Revolving Loan Facility primarily to extend the maturity date to September 2020.
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 accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. We apply these accounting policies in a consistent manner. Our significant accounting policies are discussed in Note, 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” to our financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 29, 2018.28, 2019.
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 29, 2018.28, 2019. 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 29, 2018.28, 2019.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
For a summary of recently issued accounting pronouncements, see Note, 2, “Recent Accounting Pronouncements” to our financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
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 29, 2018.28, 2019.
Item 4.Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b), our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Interim 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 Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.not effective as of March 28, 2020 due to a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described in management’s annual report on internal control over financial reporting in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 28, 2019.
Notwithstanding the identified material weakness, management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer have determined, based on the procedures we have performed, that the condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q fairly represent in all material respects our financial condition, results of operations and cash flows at March 28, 2020 and for the periods presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Remediation Plan for Material Weakness
Management continues to enhance its internal control over financial reporting and to take steps to remediate the material weakness identified during the year ended December 28, 2019 related to income taxes. During the quarter ended March 28, 2020, we made progress in our remediation of the control deficiency noted above. In order to remediate the material weakness in our internal controls related to accounting for income taxes, management is enhancing processes and internal controls related to deferred income taxes, effective income tax rate reconciliation and related disclosures. These enhanced controls include documentation evidencing the effective design and operation of annual and quarterly internal controls related to various aspects of deferred taxes and tax rate reconciliation. To assess our remediation progress, during the second quarter of 2020, we plan to test the operating effectiveness of the annual controls by performing our redesigned and enhanced year-end processes using first quarter financial information. These annual and quarterly controls will not be deemed effective until performed effectively for the year ended January 2, 2021. 
We believe the measures described above will remediate the control deficiencies we have identified and strengthen our internal control over financial reporting. We are committed to continuing to improve our internal control processes and will continue to review, optimize and enhance our financial reporting controls and procedures. As we continue to evaluate and work to improve our internal control over financial reporting, we may take additional measures to address control deficiencies, or we may modify certain of the remediation measures described above. The material weakness will not be considered remediated until the applicable controls operate for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that these controls are operating effectively.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
In connection with the evaluation required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(d), our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Interim 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.

PART II

Item 1.Legal Proceedings
Although we are subject to various claims and legal actions that occur from time to time in the ordinary course of our business, we are not party to any pending legal proceedings that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition or cash flows.

Item 1A.Risk Factors
TheIn addition to the other information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the risk factors that affect our business and financial results that are discussed in Part I, Item 1A, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2018. There are no material changes to the risk28, 2019. These factors previously disclosed, nor have we identified any previously undisclosed risks that could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, liquidity, results of operations and capital position, and could cause our actual results to differ materially from our historical results or the results contemplated by the forward-looking statements contained in this report. Other than as set forth below, there have been no material changes to such risk factors.
The novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) global pandemic has had and is expected to continue to have an adverse impact on our business.
The COVID-19 global pandemic has negatively impacted the global economy, disrupted consumer spending and global supply chains, and created significant volatility and disruption of financial results.markets. We expect the COVID-19 global pandemic to have a material impact on our business, including our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity. The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic on our business, including our ability to execute our near-term and long-term business strategies and initiatives in the expected time frame, will depend on future developments, including the duration and scope of the pandemic, which are uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the effect on our suppliers and disruptions to the global supply chain; our ability to sell and provide our products, including as a result of travel restrictions and people working from home; restrictions or disruptions to transportation, including reduced availability of ground or air transport; and the ability of our customers to pay for our services and products.
As a result of the COVID-19 global pandemic, and in response to government mandates or recommendations made by governmental or other authorities, as well as decisions we have made to protect the health and safety of our employees, consumers and communities, we have temporarily closed our retail stores globally. We may face longer term store closure requirements and other operational restrictions with respect to some or all of our physical locations for prolonged periods of time due to, among other factors, evolving and increasingly stringent governmental restrictions including public health directives, quarantine policies or social distancing measures. In addition, many of our customers, including significant customers in our wholesale distribution channels, have closed many of their stores, which will adversely impact our revenues from these customers. As a result, we expect our financial results to be materially adversely impacted.
We expect the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic to lead to continued net sales decreases due to our retail store closures and reduced net sales and earnings for our wholesale customers, some of which may experience financial distress or declare bankruptcy. Reduced retail sales or additional customer store closures and customer bankruptcies could reduce or eliminate our anticipated income and cash flows, which would negatively affect our results of operations and liquidity. Even if customers do not declare bankruptcy, they may seek to extend payment terms or be unable or unwilling to pay us amounts that we are entitled to on a timely basis or at all, which would adversely affect our sales and liquidity.
In addition, consumer fears about becoming ill with the disease may continue, which will adversely affect traffic to our and our customers' stores. Consumer spending generally may also be negatively impacted by general macroeconomic conditions and consumer confidence, including the significant economic downturn, resulting from the COVID-19 global pandemic. This may negatively impact sales in our stores and our e-commerce channel and may cause our wholesale customers to purchase fewer products from us. The continued significant reduction in consumer visits to, and spending at, our and our customers' stores, caused by COVID-19, and any decreased spending at retail stores or online caused by decreased consumer confidence and spending following the pandemic, would result in a loss of sales and profits and other material adverse effects.
The COVID-19 global pandemic also has the potential to significantly impact our supply chain if the factories that manufacture our products, the distribution centers where we manage our inventory, or the operations of our logistics and other service providers are disrupted, temporarily closed or experience worker shortages. We may also see disruptions or delays in shipments and negative impacts to pricing of certain components of our products.
In addition, the impact of COVID-19 on macroeconomic conditions may impact the proper functioning of financial and capital markets, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, and interest rates. Even after the COVID-19 global pandemic has subsided, we may continue to experience adverse impacts to our business as a result of any economic recession or depression that has occurred or may occur in the future.
The continued disruption of global financial markets as a result of the COVID-19 global pandemic could have a negative impact on our ability to access capital in the future.
As a result of the COVID-19 global pandemic, including related guidance or requirements of governmental or other authorities, we also have recently implemented a work from home policy for many of our corporate employees. This policy may negatively impact productivity and cause other disruptions to our business.

The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic on our business is highly uncertain and difficult to predict, as information is rapidly evolving with respect to the duration and severity of the pandemic.
The COVID-19 global pandemic has disrupted our operations and if we are unable to re-commence normal operations, we may be out of compliance with our required covenants in certain of our debt facilities.
Under the terms of our Senior Secured Credit Facility, we are required to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio and a maximum leverage ratio. Accordingly, in April 2020, given the impact on our earnings and the rapidly changing environment and level of uncertainty being created by the COVID-19 global pandemic, we amended our Senior Secured Credit Facility prior to any potential covenant violation, in order to modify the financial covenants and to provide operating flexibility during the COVID-19 crisis.
Any additional covenant waivers that may be required may lead to fees associated with obtaining the waiver, increased costs, increased interest rates, additional restrictive covenants and other available lender protections that would be applicable to us under these debt facilities, and such increased costs, restrictions and modifications may vary among debt facilities. In addition, our ability to provide additional lender protections under these facilities if necessary, including the granting of security interests in collateral, will be limited by the restrictions in our debt facilities. There can be no assurance that we would be able to obtain future waivers in a timely manner, on acceptable terms or at all. If we were not able to obtain a covenant waiver under any one or more of these debt facilities, we would be in default of such agreements, which could result in cross defaults to our other debt agreements. As a consequence, we would need to refinance or repay the applicable debt facility or facilities, and would be required to raise additional debt or equity capital, or divest assets, to refinance or repay such facility or facilities. If we were to be unable to obtain a covenant waiver in the future under any one or more of these debt facilities, there can be no assurance that we would be able to raise sufficient debt or equity capital, or divest assets, to refinance or repay such facility or facilities.
With respect to each of our debt facilities, if we were unable to comply with the covenants of any such facilities and were not to obtain a waiver, refinance or repay such debt facilities, it would lead to an event of default under such facilities, which could lead to an acceleration of the indebtedness under such debt facilities. In turn, this would lead to an event of default and potential acceleration of amounts due under all of our outstanding debt and derivative contract payables. As a result, the failure to obtain the covenant waivers described above would have a material adverse effect.

The new program replaced our previous share repurchase program for up to 40 million shares that was originally approved on April 27, 2016. We did not repurchase any shares under the previous program during the quarter ended March 28, 2020.
We net settle our employee stock option exercises and restricted stock unit and performance stock unit vestings, which result in the withholding of shares to cover the option exercise price and the minimum statutory withholding tax obligations that we are required to pay in cash to the applicable taxing authorities on behalf of our employees. We do not consider these transactions to be common stock repurchases.
