Hanesbrands (HBI) Queued for Q3 Earnings: Things to Consider
Read MoreHide Full Article
Hanesbrands Inc. (HBI - Free Report) is likely to register a top- and bottom-line decline when it reports third-quarter 2023 earnings on Nov 9. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pegged at $1.5 billion, suggesting a decline of 7.6% from the prior-year quarter’s reported figure.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the bottom line has remained unchanged at 11 cents per share in the past 30 days. The projection indicates a decline of 62.1% from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure.
The basic apparel company has a trailing four-quarter earnings surprise of 9.4%, on average. HBI posted an earnings surprise of 50% in the last reported quarter.
Things To Consider
Hanesbrands has been battling an inflationary environment, which is weighing on consumers’ pockets and leading to sluggish demand. The company is operating amid a challenging apparel market, mainly in Australia. Softness in the U.S. activewear category has also been a concern. Persistence of any of these factors is likely to have hurt Hanesbrands’ third-quarter 2023 performance. We expected activewear sales of $410.7 million in the quarter, down 10.9% year over year.
For third-quarter 2023, management expects net sales from continuing operations in the range of $1.52-$1.57 billion, including a projected tailwind of nearly $3 million from currency rates. At the midpoint, the guidance reflects less than an 8% year-over-year net sales decline on a reported and constant-currency basis. HBI expects adjusted earnings per share from continuing operations in the 7-13 cents range, suggesting a year-over-year decline.
Adjusted operating profit from continuing operations is expected in the range of $130-$150 million in the to-be-reported quarter. Our model suggests the metric to come in at $147.1 million, indicating a decline of 12.4%.
Hanesbrands is progressing with its Full Potential plan, which offers some respite. The plan includes reigniting innerwear growth, driving consumer-centricity and focusing on the portfolio, among others.
