Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure

On May 18, 2017, Hanesbrands Inc. (the “Company”) made available on the investors section of its corporate website, www.Hanes.com/investors , certain supplemental materials regarding the Company’s financial results and business operations (the “Supplemental Information”). A copy of the Supplemental Information is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. All information in the Supplemental Information is presented as of the particular date or dates referenced therein, and the Company does not undertake any obligation to, and disclaims any duty to, update any of the information provided.

Exhibit 99.1 is being “furnished” and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), nor shall Exhibit 99.1 be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

Exhibit 99.1 contains disclosures about adjusted EPS and adjusted operating profit, which are not generally accepted accounting principle (“GAAP”) measures. Adjusted EPS is defined as diluted EPS excluding actions and the tax effect on actions. Adjusted operating profit is defined as operating profit excluding actions.

The Company has chosen to present non-GAAP measures excluding the effects of actions to investors to enable additional analyses of past, present and future operating performance and as a supplemental means of evaluating operations absent the effect of acquisition-related expenses and other actions. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures provide management and investors with valuable supplemental information for analyzing the operating performance of the Company’s ongoing business during each period presented without giving effect to costs associated with the execution and integration of any of actions taken.

Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as an alternative to, or substitute for, financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Further, the non-GAAP measures presented may be different from non-GAAP measures with similar or identical names presented by other companies.
