Hanesbrands Inc. (NYSE:HBI) Files An 8-K Regulation FD Disclosure
Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure

On November 30, 2017, Hanesbrands Inc. (“HanesBrands”) issued a press release announcing that it is seeking to amend its existing senior secured credit facility (the “Senior Secured Credit Facility”). A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

HanesBrands intends to take advantage of its strong financial performance and cash flow generation, combined with the current favorable credit market environment, to seek to further enhance its long-term capital structure as well as further support its long-term growth model, including its value-creating capital allocation strategy. Therefore, in connection with the proposed amendments to the Senior Secured Credit Facility, HanesBrands has initiated the process to increase the size of its term loans by approximately $325 million; to reduce the rates and extend the maturities of its existing revolver and term loans; and to seek other favorable improvements to the Senior Secured Credit Facility. The proposed amendments to the Senior Secured Credit Facility are subject to definitive documentation and closing conditions, and there can be no assurance that the proposed amendments will be completed on the terms described above, or at all.

These forward-looking statements are based on our current intent, beliefs, plans and expectations. Readers are cautioned not to place any undue reliance on any forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements necessarily involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are outside of our control, that could cause actual results to differ materially from such statements and from our historical results and experience.
