Factors to Know Ahead of Hanesbrands' (HBI) Q4 Earnings
Read MoreHide Full Article
Hanesbrands Inc. (HBI - Free Report) is slated to report fourth-quarter 2022 earnings on Feb 2. This designer, manufacturer and apparel seller is likely to have witnessed revenue and earnings decline in the to-be-reported quarter.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pegged at $1,463 million, suggesting a decrease of 16.5% from the prior-year quarter’s tally. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for quarterly earnings has increased a penny in the past 30 days to 8 cents per share, suggesting an 81.8% decline from the prior-year quarter’s reported figure.
Hanesbrands witnessed an earnings surprise of 0.00% in the last reported quarter. HBI has a trailing four-quarter earnings surprise of 2.2%, on average.
Factors to Note
Hanesbrands has been reeling under inflation and elevated costs for a while to support new retail space gains and product innovation. These, along with a tough macroeconomic backdrop and soft consumer demand, are likely to have dented the fourth-quarter performance.
HBI has been exposed to unfavorable currency fluctuations for a while due to its international presence. The weakening of foreign currencies against the U.S. dollar is likely to have been a concern. On its last earnings call, management projected net sales from continuing operations to include a projected headwind of nearly $68 million from currency rates during the quarter under review. Currency headwinds are expected to have hurt adjusted operating profit by nearly $9 million in the fourth quarter.
Management recently unveiled that it now anticipates delivering fourth-quarter 2022 net sales slightly above the upper end of its previously provided range. Also, management expects adjusted operating profit to come in at the midpoint of the guidance range. For fourth-quarter 2022, net sales from continuing operations are expected to be $1.40- $1.45 billion. Adjusted operating profit from continuing operations is expected in the range of $70- $100 million. HanesBrands expects adjusted earnings per share (EPS) from continuing operations in the 4-11 cents range for the fourth quarter.
Management highlighted that it is impressed with the fourth quarter net sales and adjusted operating profit performance amid a volatile macro environment wherein 2022 inventories ended below the prior year’s level. HBI’s Full Potential plan, which includes enhancing the global Champion brand, re-igniting innerwear growth, driving consumer-centricity and focusing on the portfolio, looks encouraging.
