Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)


(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 position and cash flows of Hanesbrands Inc., a Maryland corporation, and its consolidated subsidiaries (the “Company” or “Hanesbrands”). In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to present fairly the results of operations, financial position 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.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the combined and consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s most recent Report on Form 10-KT. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be expected for the full year.

Hanesbrands Inc. was incorporated in connection with the spin off by Sara Lee Corporation (“Sara Lee”) of its apparel business in the Americas and Asia (the “Branded Apparel Americas and Asia Business”). The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the consolidated operations of Hanesbrands and its subsidiaries as a separate, stand-alone entity subsequent to the spin off from Sara Lee on September 5, 2006, in addition to the historical operations of the Branded Apparel Americas and Asia Business which were operated as part of Sara Lee prior to the spin off.

Management believes the assumptions underlying the condensed consolidated financial statements for these periods are reasonable. However, the condensed consolidated financial statements included herein for periods prior to September 5, 2006 do not necessarily reflect what the Branded Apparel Americas and Asia Business’ results of operations, financial position and cash flows would have been had the Branded Apparel Americas and Asia Business been a stand-alone company during those periods.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2007, the Company acquired the 1,300-employee textile manufacturing operations in San Juan Opico, El Salvador of Industrias Duraflex, S.A. de C.V., which had been a supplier to the Company since the early 1990s, resulting in approximately $27,000 of goodwill.

During the third quarter of fiscal 2007, the Company changed the timing of its annual goodwill impairment testing to the first day of the third fiscal quarter. Prior to fiscal 2007, the Company’s policy was to perform the test at the end of the second fiscal quarter which coincided with Sara Lee’s policy before the spin off. The change in the annual goodwill impairment testing date was made following the change in the Company’s fiscal year-end from the Saturday closest to June 30 to the Saturday closest to December 31 and results in the testing continuing to be performed in the middle of the Company’s fiscal year. In addition, this accounting change better aligns the annual goodwill impairment test with the timing of the Company’s annual long range planning cycle. The change in accounting principle does not delay, accelerate or avoid an impairment charge. Accordingly, the Company believes that the accounting change described above is preferable under the circumstances.

(2)	Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) was computed by dividing net income by the number of weighted average shares of common stock outstanding during the third quarters and nine months ended September 29, 2007 and September 30, 2006. Diluted EPS was calculated to give effect to all potentially dilutive shares of common stock. The reconciliation of basic to diluted weighted average shares for the third quarter and nine months ended September 29, 2007 and September 30, 2006 is as follows:


	Quarter Ended				Nine Months Ended
	September 29,		September 30,		September 29,		September 30,
	2007		2006		2007		2006

Basic weighted average shares		95,664		96,306		96,100		96,306
Effect of potentially dilutive securities:
Stock options		346		3		221		—
Restricted stock units		603		10		361		—
Employee stock purchase plan		2		—		—		—

Diluted weighted average shares		96,615		96,319		96,682		96,306

Options to purchase 998 and 1,008 shares of common stock were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation because their effect would be anti-dilutive for the third quarter and nine months ended September 29, 2007, respectively.


(3)	Stock-Based Compensation

During the first quarter ended March 31, 2007, the Company granted options to purchase 1,082 shares of common stock pursuant to the Hanesbrands Inc. Omnibus Incentive Plan of 2006 (the “Omnibus Plan”) at an exercise price of $25.10 per share, which was the closing price of Hanesbrands’ stock on the date of grant. Options can be exercised over a term of between five and seven years and vest ratably over one to three years with the exception of one category of award which vested immediately upon grant. The fair value of each option granted during the first quarter ended March 31, 2007 was estimated as of the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model using the following weighted average assumptions: weighted average expected volatility of 26%; weighted average expected term of 4.49 years; expected dividend yield of 0%; and risk-free interest rate ranging from 4.85% to 4.92%, with a weighted average of 4.85%. The Company uses the volatility of peer companies for a period of time that is comparable to the expected life of the option to determine volatility assumptions due to the relatively short period of time since the spin off on September 5, 2006 during which Hanesbrands’ stock was traded. The Company utilized the simplified method outlined in SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 107 to estimate expected lives for options granted during the first quarter ended March 31, 2007. The weighted average fair value of individual options granted during the first quarter ended March 31, 2007 was $7.73.

During the first quarter ended March 31, 2007, the Company granted 574 restricted stock units (RSUs) pursuant to the Omnibus Plan. Upon the achievement of defined service conditions, the RSUs are converted into shares of the Company’s common stock on a one-for-one basis and issued to the grantees. All RSUs vest solely upon continued future service to the Company. The cost of these awards is determined using the fair value of the shares on the date of grant, and compensation expense is recognized over the period during which the grantees provide the requisite service to the Company. The grant date fair value of the RSUs was $25.10.

During April 2007, the Company implemented the Hanesbrands Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan of 2006 (the “ESPP”), which is qualified under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code. An aggregate of up to

HANESBRANDS

(unaudited)

2,442 shares of Hanesbrands common stock may be purchased by eligible employees pursuant to the ESPP. The purchase price for shares under the ESPP is equal to 85% of the stock’s fair market value on the purchase date. During the third quarter and nine months ended September 29, 2007, 33 and 46 shares were purchased under the ESPP by eligible employees, respectively. The Company had 2,396 shares of common available for issuance under the ESPP as of September 29, 2007.


(4)	Restructuring

The reported results for the third quarters and nine months ended September 29, 2007 and September 30, 2006 reflect amounts recognized for restructuring actions. Reported amounts also include the impact of certain actions that were completed for amounts more favorable than previously estimated of $224 and $3,446, respectively, in the third quarter and nine months ended September 29, 2007 and $0 and $3,881, respectively, in the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2006. The impact of restructuring on income before income tax expense is summarized as follows:

2007 Restructuring Actions

During the nine months ended September 29, 2007, the Company, in connection with its consolidation and globalization strategy, approved actions that will result in the closure of 14 manufacturing facilities and two distribution centers in the United States, Canada, the Dominican Republic, Mexico, Brazil and Puerto Rico. All actions are expected to be completed within a 12-month period. The net impact of these actions was to reduce income before income tax expense by $15,786 and $64,838 in the third quarter and nine months ended September 29, 2007, respectively.

The following table summarizes the charges taken during the nine months ended September 29, 2007 related to fiscal year 2007 restructuring actions and the related status as of September 29, 2007. Any accrued amounts remaining as of September 29, 2007 represent those cash expenditures necessary to satisfy remaining obligations, which will be primarily paid in the next 12 months.

This charge is reflected in the “Restructuring” line of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. As of September 29, 2007, 2,868 employees had been terminated and the severance obligation remaining in accrued liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet was $26,934.

The Company recognized $13,728 and $28,844 in the third quarter and nine months ended September 29, 2007, respectively, which represents accelerated depreciation of buildings and equipment for facilities that have been or will be closed in connection with its consolidation and globalization strategy.

(5)	Income Taxes

The Company adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Interpretation No. 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”), during the nine months ended September 29, 2007. As a result of the implementation of FIN 48, the Company recognized no adjustment in the liability for unrecognized income tax benefits. At the adoption date on December 31, 2006, the Company had $3,267 of unrecognized tax benefits, all of which would affect the effective tax rate if recognized. As of September 29, 2007, the Company has $7,850 of unrecognized tax benefits. Although it is not reasonably possible to estimate the amount by which these unrecognized tax benefits may increase or decrease within the next twelve months due to uncertainties regarding the timing of examinations and the amount of settlements that may be paid, if any, to tax authorities, the Company does not expect unrecognized tax benefits to significantly change in the next twelve months.

Under a tax sharing agreement entered into in connection with the spin off from Sara Lee on September 5, 2006, Sara Lee generally is liable for all U.S. federal, state, local and foreign income taxes attributable to the Company with respect to taxable periods ending on or before September 5, 2006. Sara Lee is also liable for income taxes attributable to the Company with respect to taxable periods beginning before September 5, 2006 and ending after September 5, 2006, but only to the extent those taxes are allocable to the portion of the taxable period ending on September 5, 2006.

The Company’s policy is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. As of September 29, 2007, the Company had no accrual for interest and penalties.

For the third quarter and nine months ended September 29, 2007, income taxes have been computed consistent with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 28, “Interim Financial Reporting” (“APB 28”) and FASB Interpretation No. 18, “Accounting for Income Taxes in Interim Periods” (“FIN 18”). For most of the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2006, the Company’s operations were included in the

HANESBRANDS

(unaudited)

consolidated income tax returns of Sara Lee. Income taxes were calculated and provided for by the Company on a separate return basis for each quarterly period prior to the spin off from Sara Lee on September 5, 2006.

The difference in the effective tax rate of 30.0% for the third quarter and nine months ended September 29, 2007 and the U.S. statutory rate of 35.0% is primarily attributable to unremitted earnings of foreign subsidiaries taxed at rates less than the U.S. statutory rate and federal tax credits. The difference in the effective tax rates of 34.0% and 24.4% for the third quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2006, respectively, and the U.S. statutory rate of 35.0% is primarily attributable to unremitted earnings of foreign subsidiaries taxed at rates less than the U.S. statutory rate.


(6)	Comprehensive Income

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 130, Reporting Comprehensive Income, requires that all components of comprehensive income, including net income, be reported in the financial statements in the period in which they are recognized. Comprehensive income is defined as the change in equity during a period from transactions and other events and circumstances from non-owner sources. Net income and other comprehensive income, including foreign currency translation adjustments, amounts amortized into net periodic benefit cost as required by SFAS No. 158, Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, and unrealized gains and losses on qualifying cash flow hedges, are combined, net of their related tax effect, to arrive at comprehensive income. The Company’s comprehensive income is as follows:


	Quarter Ended						Nine Months Ended
	September 29,			September 30,			September 29,			September 30,
	2007			2006			2007			2006

(8)	Defined Benefit Pension Plans

Prior to the spin off from Sara Lee on September 5, 2006, employees who met certain eligibility requirements participated in defined benefit pension plans sponsored by Sara Lee. The annual cost of the Sara Lee defined benefit plans was allocated from Sara Lee to all of the participating businesses based upon a specific actuarial computation which was followed consistently. Effective as of January 1, 2006, the Company created the Hanesbrands Inc. Pension and Retirement Plan (the “Hanesbrands Pension Plan”), a new defined benefit plan under which all benefits were frozen, to receive assets and liabilities accrued under the Sara Lee Pension Plan that are attributable to current and former Company employees. In connection with the spin off on September 5, 2006, the Company assumed all Sara Lee’s obligations under pension plans to the extent related to the Company’s current and former employees. In addition to the Hanesbrands Pension Plan, the Company sponsors two noncontributory defined benefit plans, the Playtex Apparel, Inc. Pension Plan (the “Playtex Plan”) and the National Textiles LLC Pension Plan (the “National Textiles Plan”), for certain qualifying individuals.

The obligations and costs related to these plans are included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of September 29, 2007.

The pension expense (income) incurred by the Company for these defined benefit plans is as follows:


	Quarter Ended						Nine Months Ended
	September 29,			September 30,			September 29,			September 30,
	2007			2006			2007			2006

National Textiles LLC Pension Plan		(85	)		(229	)		(254	)		(759	)

Total pension plan expense (income)	$	(7,096	)	$	940		$	(5,070	)	$	5,752

For the third quarter and nine months ended September 29, 2007, the components of the Company’s noncontributory defined benefit plans net periodic income were as follows:


	Quarter Ended			Nine Months Ended
	September 29,			September 29,
	2007			2007

Service cost	$	372		$	1,033
Interest cost		12,451			37,280

Prior service cost		10			32
Net actuarial loss		(2,196	)		(837	)

Net periodic income	$	(7,096	)	$	(5,070	)

During the third quarter ended September 29, 2007, the Company substantially completed the separation of its pension plan assets and liabilities from those of Sara Lee in accordance with governmental regulations, which will result in a higher total amount of pension plan assets being transferred to the Company than

(unaudited)

originally was estimated prior to the spin off. The separation resulted in a reduction to pension liabilities of approximately $74,000 with a corresponding credit to additional paid-in capital as of the end of the third quarter, and resulted in an adjustment of approximately $6,000 to pension expense for the third quarter and nine months ended September 29, 2007. A final transfer of assets will occur by the end of fiscal 2007.

During the nine months ended September 29, 2007, the Company made discretionary contributions totaling $47,981. These contributions, when combined with the payment made in December 2006, satisfy the 2007 minimum funding requirement for the pension plans.


(9)	Postretirement Healthcare and Life Insurance Plans

Prior to the spin off from Sara Lee on September 5, 2006, employees who met certain eligibility requirements participated in post-retirement healthcare and life insurance sponsored by Sara Lee. The annual cost of the Sara Lee postretirement healthcare and life insurance plans was allocated from Sara Lee to all of the participating businesses based upon a specific actuarial computation which was followed consistently. In connection with the spin off on September 5, 2006, the Company assumed all Sara Lee’s obligations under postretirement plans to the extent related to the Company’s current and former employees. The obligations and costs related to these plans are included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of September 29, 2007.

In December 2006, the Company changed the postretirement plan benefits to (a) pass along a higher share of retiree medical costs to all retirees effective February 1, 2007, (b) eliminate company contributions toward premiums for retiree medical coverage effective December 1, 2007, (c) eliminate retiree medical coverage options for all current and future retirees age 65 and older and (d) eliminate future postretirement life benefits. Gains associated with these amendments are currently being amortized and the Company expects to record a final gain on curtailment of plan benefits of approximately $32,000 in December 2007 upon termination of the plans.

The postretirement plan expense (income) incurred by the Company for these postretirement plans is as follows:


	Quarter Ended					Nine Months Ended
	September 29,			September 30,		September 29,			September 30,
	2007			2006		2007			2006

(10)	Long-Term Debt

In connection with the spin off on September 5, 2006, the Company entered into a $2,150,000 senior secured credit facility (the “Senior Secured Credit Facility”), a $450,000 senior secured second lien credit facility and a $500,000 bridge loan facility (the “Bridge Loan Facility”). The Bridge Loan Facility was paid off in full through the issuance of $500,000 of floating rate senior notes in December 2006.

On February 22, 2007, the Company entered into a First Amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the Senior Secured Credit Facility. Pursuant to the First Amendment, the “applicable margin” with respect to the $1,400,000 Term B loan facility (“Term B Loan Facility”) that comprises a part of the Senior Secured Credit Facility was reduced from 2.25% to 1.75% with respect to loans maintained as “LIBO loans,” and from 1.25% to 0.75% with respect to loans maintained as “Base Rate loans.” At the Company’s option, borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facility may be maintained from time to time as (a) Base Rate loans, which bear interest at the higher of (i) 1/2 of 1% in excess of the federal funds rate and (ii) the rate published in the Wall Street Journal as the “prime rate” (or equivalent), in each case in effect from time to time, plus the applicable margin in effect from time to time, or (b) LIBOR based loans, which shall bear interest at the LIBO Rate (as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Facility and adjusted for maximum reserves), as determined by the Administrative Agent for the respective interest period plus the applicable margin in effect from time to time.

The First Amendment also provides that in the event that, prior to February 22, 2008, the Company: (i) incurs a new tranche of replacement loans constituting obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facility having an effective interest rate margin less than the applicable margin for loans pursuant to the Term B Loan Facility (“Term B Loans”), the proceeds of which are used to repay or return, in whole or in part, principal of the outstanding Term B Loans, (ii) consummates any other amendment to the Senior Secured Credit Facility that reduces the applicable margin for the Term B Loans, or (iii) incurs additional Term B Loans having an effective interest rate margin less than the applicable margin for Term B Loans, the proceeds of which are used in whole or in part to prepay or repay outstanding Term B Loans, then in any such case, the Company will pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each Lender with outstanding Term B Loans, a fee in an amount equal to 1.0% of the aggregate principal amount of all Term B Loans being replaced on such date immediately prior to the effectiveness of such transaction. The Company incurred $1,600 in debt issuance costs in connection with entering into the First Amendment which will be amortized over the life of the Term B Loan Facility.

During the third quarter and nine months ended September 29, 2007, the Company recognized $889 and $1,440, respectively, of losses on early extinguishment of debt related to unamortized debt issuance costs on the Senior Secured Credit Facility as a result of prepayments of $50,000 of principal in June 2007 and $75,000 of principal made in September 2007. These losses are reflected in the “Other expenses” line of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

(12)	Consolidating Financial Information

In accordance with the indenture governing the Company’s $500,000 Floating Rate Senior Notes issued on December 14, 2006, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries have guaranteed the Company’s obligations under the Floating Rate Senior Notes. The following presents the condensed consolidating financial information separately for:

(i) Parent Company (Hanesbrands Inc. without its subsidiaries or divisions), the issuer of the guaranteed obligations;

(ii) Divisional entities, on a combined basis, representing operating divisions (not legal entities) 100% owned by Parent Company;

(iii) Guarantor subsidiaries, on a combined basis, as specified in the indenture governing the Floating Rate Senior Notes;

(iv) Non-guarantor subsidiaries, on a combined basis;

(v) Consolidating entries and eliminations representing adjustments to (a) eliminate intercompany transactions between or among Parent Company, the guarantor subsidiaries and the non-guarantor subsidiaries, (b) eliminate intercompany profit in inventory, (c) eliminate the investments in our subsidiaries and (d) record consolidating entries; and

(vi) Parent Company, on a consolidated basis.

As described in Note 1 to the Company’s Combined and Consolidated Financial Statements included in its Report on Form 10-KT for the six months ended December 30, 2006, a separate legal entity did not exist for Parent Company prior to the spin off from Sara Lee because a direct ownership relationship did not exist among the various units comprising the Branded Apparel Americas and Asia Business. In connection with the spin off from Sara Lee, each guarantor subsidiary became a wholly owned direct or indirect subsidiary of Parent Company as of September 5, 2006. Therefore, a parent company entity is not presented for fiscal periods prior to the spin-off.

The Floating Rate Senior Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by each guarantor subsidiary. Each entity in the consolidating financial information follows the same accounting policies as described in the Company’s Combined and Consolidated Financial Statements included in its Report on Form 10-KT for the six months ended December 30, 2006, except for the use by the parent company and guarantor subsidiaries of the equity method of accounting to reflect ownership interests in subsidiaries which are eliminated upon consolidation.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation and legal entity structure relating to the classification of the investment in subsidiary balances and related equity in earnings of subsidiaries.

(13) Issued But Not Yet Effective Accounting Standards

Fair Value Measurements

The FASB has issued SFAS No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (“SFAS 157”), which provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. The standard also responds to investors’ requests for more information about (1) the extent to which companies measure assets and liabilities at fair value, (2) the information used to measure fair value, and (3) the effect that fair-value measurements have on earnings. SFAS 157 will apply whenever another standard requires (or permits) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. The standard does not expand the use of fair value to any new circumstances. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of SFAS 157 on its results of operations and financial position.

Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, Employer’s Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans (an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132R) (“SFAS 158”). SFAS 158 requires an employer to recognize in its statement of financial position an asset for a plan’s overfunded status or a liability for a plan’s underfunded status, measure a plan’s assets and its obligations that determine its funded status as of the end of the employer’s fiscal year (with limited exceptions), and recognize changes in the funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan in the year in which the changes occur. Those changes will be reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss and as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. The Company adopted the provision to recognize the funded status of a benefit plan and the disclosure requirements during the six months ended December 30, 2006. The requirement to measure plan assets and benefit obligations as of the date of the employer’s fiscal year-end is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. The Company plans to adopt the measurement date provision in fiscal 2007.

Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 permits companies to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value and establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. The provisions of SFAS 159 become effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. The Company is currently evaluating the impact that SFAS 159 will have on its results of operations and financial position.

Our net sales for the nine months ended September 29, 2007 from our Outerwear segment were $897 million, representing approximately 27% of total segment net sales.

	•	Hosiery. We are the leading marketer of women’s sheer hosiery in the United States. We compete in the hosiery market by striving to offer superior values and executing integrated marketing activities, as well as focusing on the style of our hosiery products. We market hosiery products under our Hanes, L’eggs and Just My Size brands. Our net sales for the nine months ended September 29, 2007 from our Hosiery segment were $189 million, representing approximately 6% of total segment net sales. In light of a sustained decline in the hosiery industry due to changes in consumer preferences, our net annual sales from hosiery sales have declined each year since 1995.


	•	International. International includes products that span across the Innerwear, Outerwear and Hosiery reportable segments. Our net sales for the nine months ended September 29, 2007 in our International segment were $303 million, representing approximately 9% of total segment net sales and included sales in Europe, Asia, Canada and Latin America. Japan, Canada and Mexico are our largest international markets and we also have sales offices in India and China.

	•	Other. Our net sales for the nine months ended September 29, 2007 in our Other segment were $47 million, representing approximately 1% of total segment net sales and are comprised of sales of nonfinished products such as fabric and certain other materials in the United States, Asia and Latin America in order to maintain asset utilization at certain manufacturing facilities.

Our operating results are subject to some variability. Generally, our diverse range of product offerings helps mitigate the impact of seasonal changes in demand for certain items. Sales are typically higher in the last two quarters (July to December) of each fiscal year. Socks, hosiery and fleece products generally have higher sales during this period as a result of cooler weather, back-to-school shopping and holidays. Sales levels in a period are also impacted by customers’ 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. Our results of operations are also impacted by fluctuations and volatility in the price of cotton and the timing of actual spending for our media, advertising and promotion expenses. 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. Our costs for cotton yarn and cotton-based textiles vary based upon the fluctuating cost of cotton, which is affected by weather, consumer demand, speculation on the commodities market, the relative valuations and fluctuations of the currencies of producer versus consumer countries and other factors that are generally unpredictable and beyond our control. While we do enter into short-term supply agreements and hedges in an attempt to protect our business from the volatility of the market price of cotton, our business can be affected by dramatic movements in cotton prices.

Highlights from the Third Quarter and Nine Months Ended September 29, 2007


	•	Total net sales in the third quarter of 2007 were higher by $35 million at $1.15 billion compared to the same quarter in 2006. Total net sales for the nine month period in 2007 were higher by $43 million at $3.32 billion compared to the same nine month period in 2006. We had a strong sales performance in the third quarter in a challenging consumer environment. Many retailers have posted soft same store sales figures for September 2007 due to unusually warm weather affecting traffic and impacting demand for colder weather apparel items such as fleece. The short-term impact of these circumstances on our sales remains unclear, but we will continue to invest in our largest and strongest brands to achieve our long-term growth goals.

	•	Operating profit was $106 million in the third quarter of 2007, up from $94 million in the same quarter in 2006, and was $263 million in the nine month period in 2007, compared with $270 million in the same nine month period in 2006. The higher operating profit in the third quarter of 2007 compared to the same quarter in 2006 is primarily attributable to lower selling, general and administrative expenses and lower restructuring charges for facility closures partially offset by lower gross profit. The lower operating profit in the nine month period in 2007 compared to the same nine month period in 2006 is primarily attributable to higher restructuring charges for facility closures and lower gross profit partially offset by lower selling, general and administrative expenses.

	•	Diluted earnings per share were $0.40 in the third quarter of 2007, compared with $0.52 in the same quarter in 2006. For the nine month period in 2007 diluted earnings per share were $0.79 versus $1.91 a year ago. The decline in the third quarter was primarily a result of increased interest expense associated with our independent structure. In the nine month period in 2007, the decline in diluted earnings per share reflected increased interest expense, higher restructuring and related charges and a higher tax rate.


	•	Using cash flow from operating activities, we made a $75 million prepayment of long-term debt and repurchased $29 million of company stock during the third quarter of 2007. For the first nine months of the year, we repaid $128 million of long-term debt, repurchased $44 million in company stock and voluntarily contributed $48 million to our qualified pension plans.

	•	During the third quarter of 2007, we substantially completed the separation of pension plan assets and liabilities from those of our former parent. As a result, our qualified pension plans are approximately 97% funded.

	•	We acquired our second offshore textile plant, the 1,300-employee textile manufacturing operations of Industrias Duraflex, S.A. de C.V., in San Juan Opico, El Salvador. This acquisition provides a textile base in Central America from which to expand and leverage our large scale as well as supply our sewing network throughout Central America. Also, we announced plans to build a textile production plant in Nanjing, China which will be the first company-owned textile production facility in Asia. The Nanjing textile facility will enable us to expand and leverage our production scale in Asia as we balance our supply chain across hemispheres.

	•	In the nine month period in 2007, we entered into a first amendment to our senior secured credit facility with our lenders which primarily lowered the borrowing applicable margin with respect to the Term B loan facility from 2.25% to 1.75% on LIBOR based loans and from 1.25% to 0.75% on Base Rate loans.

	•	We approved actions to close 14 manufacturing facilities and two distribution centers in the United States, Canada, the Dominican Republic, Mexico, Brazil and Puerto Rico during the nine month period in 2007. In addition, we completed previously announced actions in the nine month period in 2007. The net impact of these actions was to reduce income before taxes for the nine month period in 2007 by $76 million.

	(dollars in thousands)

Net sales	$	1,153,606	$	1,118,968	$	34,638		3.1	%

Consolidated net sales were higher by $35 million or 3.1% in the third quarter of 2007 compared to the same quarter in 2006. Our Outerwear, International, Hosiery and Other segment net sales were higher by $31 million, $10 million, $7 million and $3 million, respectively, and were offset by lower segment net sales in Innerwear of $16 million.

The overall higher net sales were primarily due to growth in sales volume in Hanes brand casualwear and sock sales, Champion brand activewear sales and Bali brand intimate apparel sales. The higher net sales were partially offset by lower Hanes brand kids’ underwear sales, lower licensed men’s underwear sales in the department store channel and lower Playtex brand intimate apparel sales. We experienced double-digit gains in the Hosiery and International segments that were driven by core hosiery product strength and growth in the European casualwear business. The double-digit gains in Hosiery segment net sales this quarter were significantly better than the historical trend of a sustained decline in overall industry sales for the last several years.

Gross Profit

	(dollars in thousands)

Gross profit	$	361,019	$	365,631	$	(4,612	)		(1.3	)%

As a percent of net sales, our gross profit percentage was 31.3% in the third quarter of 2007 compared to 32.7% in the same quarter in 2006. The lower gross profit percentage was primarily due to higher excess and obsolete inventory costs of $14 million, higher accelerated depreciation of $7 million and higher cotton costs of $4 million, offset by $14 million of savings from our cost reduction initiatives and prior restructuring actions, and lower allocations of overhead costs of $7 million. Cotton prices, which were approximately 45 cents per pound in the first half of 2006, returned to the historical average of approximately 55 cents per pound in the second half of calendar 2006 and the first nine months of 2007.

The higher excess and obsolete inventory costs this quarter compared to the prior year quarter are primarily attributable to such costs having been unusually low during the prior year third quarter, in which we were completing our spin off. The higher accelerated depreciation in the third quarter of 2007 was a result of facilities closed or that will be closed in connection with our consolidation and globalization strategy.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses


	Quarter Ended
	September 29,		September 30,		Higher			Percent
	2007		2006		(Lower)			Change
	(dollars in thousands)

Selling, general and administrative expenses	$	253,233	$	262,426	$	(9,193	)		(3.5	)%

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $9 million lower in the third quarter of 2007 compared to the same quarter in 2006. Our expenses were lower in the third quarter of 2007 primarily due to lower spin off and related charges of $18 million, $5 million of savings from our prior restructuring actions, $5 million of lower media, advertising and promotion expenses that were primarily non-media related, and $2 million of amortization of gain on curtailment of postretirement benefits. The lower non-media expenses are primarily attributable to cost reduction initiatives and better deployment of these resources. In addition, our pension expense was lower by $10 million which included a $5 million adjustment related to the final separation of our pension assets and liabilities from those of Sara Lee Corporation (“Sara Lee”).

Our cost reduction efforts during the quarter have allowed us to offset higher stand alone expenses associated with being an independent company of $11 million and make investments in our strategic initiatives resulting in $7 million of higher media related media, advertising and promotion expenses and higher technology consulting expenses of $3 million during the third quarter of 2007. In addition, our allocations of overhead costs were $7 million lower during the third quarter of 2007 compared to the same quarter in 2006.

Accelerated deprecation was $1 million higher in the third quarter of 2007 as a result of facilities closed or that will be closed in connection with our consolidation and globalization strategy.

Restructuring	$	2,062	$	9,313	$	(7,251	)		(77.9	)%

During the third quarter of 2007, we eliminated approximately 223 positions in Canada, Mexico and Brazil. We incurred a charge of $2 million primarily attributable to employee and other termination benefits recognized in accordance with benefit plans previously communicated to the affected employee group.

In connection with our consolidation and globalization strategy, a non-cash charge of $12 million and $1 million, respectively, of accelerated depreciation of buildings and equipment for facilities that have been closed or will be closed is reflected in the “Cost of sales” and “Selling, general and administrative expenses” lines of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income. These actions, which are a continuation of our consolidation and globalization strategy, are expected to result in benefits of moving production to lower-cost manufacturing facilities, leveraging our large scale in high-volume products and consolidating production capacity.

Operating profit was higher in the third quarter of 2007 by $12 million compared to the same quarter in 2006 primarily as a result of lower selling, general and administrative expenses of $9 million, and lower restructuring charges for facility closures of $7 million offset by lower gross profit of $5 million which included an increase of $7 million in accelerated depreciation. Our ability to control costs and execute on our consolidation and globalization strategy during the third quarter of 2007 has allowed us to partially offset higher investments in our strategic initiatives of $10 million and $11 million of higher standalone expenses associated with being an independent company.

Interest expense, net was higher by $32 million in the third quarter of 2007 compared to the same quarter in 2006 primarily as a result of the indebtedness incurred in connection with the spin off from Sara Lee on

September 5, 2006, consisting of $2.6 billion pursuant to a new senior secured credit facility, a new senior secured second lien credit facility and a bridge loan facility. The higher interest expense was primarily attributable to the fact that we had three months of interest in the third quarter of 2007 compared to one month of interest in the same quarter of 2006. In December 2006, we issued $500 million of floating rate senior notes, and the net proceeds were used to repay the bridge loan facility.

Our effective income tax rate was 30.0% in the third quarter of 2007 compared to 34.0% in the same quarter in 2006. The lower effective tax rate is attributable primarily to higher unremitted earnings from foreign subsidiaries in the third quarter of 2007 taxed at rates less than the U.S. statutory rate.

Overall net sales in the Innerwear segment were lower by $16 million or 2.5% in the third quarter of 2007 compared to the same quarter in 2006. We experienced lower sales of Hanes brand kids’ underwear of $11 million, lower licensed men’s underwear sales in the department store channel of $5 million, lower Hanes brand intimate apparel sales of $4 million, lower Playtex brand intimate apparel sales of $4 million and lower Just My Size brand sales of $3 million. The lower net sales were partially offset by higher Hanes brand socks and Bali brand sales of $6 million and $6 million, respectively.

As a percent of segment net sales, gross profit percentage in the Innerwear segment was 35.7% in the third quarter of 2007 compared to 37.0% in the same quarter in 2006. The lower gross profit is primarily attributable to higher excess and obsolete inventory costs of $11 million, unfavorable product sales mix of $6 million, unfavorable plant performance of $4 million and higher cotton costs of $2 million. These higher expenses were partially offset by savings from our cost reduction initiatives of $5 million and lower allocations of overhead costs of $4 million.

The lower Innerwear segment operating profit in the third quarter of 2007 compared to the same quarter in 2006 is primarily attributable to lower gross profit on lower sales volume, higher media, advertising and promotion expenses of $8 million and a higher allocation of selling, general and administrative expenses of $8 million. Our consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses before segment allocations were lower in the third quarter of 2007 compared to the same quarter in 2006 primarily due to lower spin off and related charges, lower pension expense and amortization of gain on curtailment of postretirement benefits which were partially offset by higher stand alone expenses associated with being an independent company, lower allocations of overhead costs, higher accelerated depreciation and higher technology consulting expenses.

Net sales in the Outerwear segment were higher by $31 million in the third quarter of 2007 compared to the same quarter in 2006 primarily as a result of higher Hanes brand casualwear sales of $20 million and higher Champion brand activewear sales of $7 million. Champion, our second largest brand, benefited from higher penetration in the mid-tier department store and sporting goods channels. In addition, we experienced higher sales of promotional Hanes brand t-shirts sold primarily through our embellishment channel of $3 million. The strong Outerwear performance was primarily driven by a return to focusing on basic apparel in the mass retail channel for casualwear.

As a percent of segment net sales, gross profit percentage in the Outerwear segment was 23.6% in the third quarter of 2007 compared to 21.6% in the same quarter in 2006. The higher gross profit is primarily attributable to improved plant performance of $7 million, savings from our cost reduction initiatives and prior restructuring actions of $7 million, favorable product sales mix of $6 million and lower allocations of overhead costs of $2 million, offset primarily by higher excess and obsolete inventory costs of $4 million, higher duty costs of $3 million and higher cotton costs of $2 million.

The higher Outerwear segment operating profit in the third quarter of 2007 compared to the same quarter in 2006 is primarily attributable to higher gross profit and lower media, advertising and promotion expenses of $4 million partially offset by a higher allocation of selling, general and administrative expenses of $7 million. Our consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses before segment allocations were lower in the third quarter of 2007 compared to the same quarter in 2006 primarily due to lower spin off and related charges, lower pension expense and amortization of gain on curtailment of postretirement benefits which were partially offset by higher stand alone expenses associated with being an independent company, lower allocations of overhead costs, higher accelerated depreciation and higher technology consulting expenses.

Net sales in the Hosiery segment were higher by $7 million in the third quarter of 2007 compared to the same quarter in 2006 primarily due to higher sales of the L’eggs brand to mass retailers and food and drug stores.

As a percent of segment net sales, gross profit percentage was 46.4% in the third quarter of 2007 compared to 40.9% in the same quarter in 2006 primarily due favorable product sales mix of $4 million and savings from our cost reduction initiatives and prior restructuring actions of $2 million.

Hosiery segment operating profit was higher in the third quarter of 2007 compared to the same quarter in 2006 primarily due to the improvement in gross profit and lower media, advertising and promotion expenses of $3 million. The amount of allocated selling, general and administrative expenses remained consistent as compared to the same quarter in 2006. Our consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses before segment allocations were lower in the third quarter of 2007 compared to the same quarter in 2006 primarily due to lower spin off and related charges, lower pension expense and amortization of gain on curtailment of postretirement benefits which were partially offset by higher stand alone expenses associated with being an independent company, lower allocations of overhead costs, higher accelerated depreciation and higher technology consulting expenses.

Overall net sales in the International segment were higher in the third quarter of 2007 compared to the same quarter in 2006. During the third quarter of 2007 we experienced higher net sales in Europe of $7 million and Latin America of $3 million. The growth in our European casualwear business was driven by the strength of the Stedman and Hanes brands that are sold in the screen print channel. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates had a favorable impact on net sales of $4 million in the third quarter of 2007 compared to the same quarter in 2006.

As a percent of segment net sales, gross profit percentage was 39.2% in the third quarter in 2007 compared to 40.8% in the same quarter in 2006. The lower gross profit percentage was primarily attributable to unfavorable product sales mix.

The higher International segment operating profit in the third quarter of 2007 compared to the same quarter in 2006 is primarily attributable to the higher gross profit from higher sales volume. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates had a favorable impact on segment operating profit of $1 million in the third quarter of 2007 compared to the same quarter in 2006.

Net sales of this segment are generated for the purpose of maintaining asset utilization at certain manufacturing facilities.

General Corporate Expenses

General corporate expenses were lower in the third quarter of 2007 compared to the same quarter in 2006 primarily due to lower spin off and related charges of $19 million, a $5 million favorable adjustment related to the final separation of our pension plan assets and liabilities from those of Sara Lee, amortization of gain on postretirement benefits of $2 million and $3 million in lower expenses related to various areas partially offset by higher stand alone expenses associated with being an independent company of $11 million.

Net sales	$	3,315,407	$	3,271,961	$	43,446		1.3	%

Consolidated net sales were higher by $43 million or 1.3% in the nine month period in 2007 compared to the same nine month period in 2006. Our Outerwear, International and Other segment net sales were higher by $40 million, $8 million and $11 million, respectively, and were offset by lower segment net sales in Innerwear of $13 million and Hosiery of $2 million.

The overall higher net sales were partially due to growth in sales volume in Hanes brand casualwear, intimate apparel, sleepwear and socks sales, Champion brand activewear sales and Bali brand intimate apparel sales. The higher net sales were offset primarily by lower Hanes brand kids’ underwear sales, lower licensed men’s underwear sales in the department store channel and lower Playtex brand intimate apparel sales and lower sales of promotional t-shirts sold primarily through our embellishment channel.

The relatively flat Hosiery segment net sales in the nine month period in 2007 were significantly better than the historical trend of a sustained decline in overall industry sales for the last several years.

The higher net sales from our Other segment primarily resulted from an immaterial change in the way we recognized sales to third party suppliers in the same nine month period in 2006. The full year change was reflected in the same nine month period in 2006 with a $5 million impact on net sales and minimal impact on net income.

Gross Profit

	(dollars in thousands)

Gross profit	$	1,081,055	$	1,087,984	$	(6,929	)		(0.6	)%

As a percent of net sales, our gross profit percentage was 32.6% in the nine month period in 2007 compared to 33.3% in the same nine month period in 2006. The lower gross profit percentage was primarily due to $25 million in higher accelerated depreciation, higher cotton costs of $22 million and higher excess and obsolete inventory costs of $17 million. Cotton prices, which were approximately 45 cents per pound in the first half of 2006, returned to the historical average of approximately 55 cents per pound in the second half of calendar 2006 and the first nine months of 2007. These higher costs were offset primarily by savings from our cost reduction initiatives and prior restructuring actions of $24 million, lower allocations of overhead costs of $22 million, and lower duty costs of $12 million primarily due to the receipt of $7 million in duty refunds relating to duties paid several years ago.

The higher excess and obsolete inventory costs in the nine month period in 2007 compared to the same nine month period in 2006 are primarily attributable to such costs having been unusually low during the prior year third quarter, in which we were completing our spin off. Since the spin off we have a renewed focus on both inventory level reductions and simplification of our product offerings that has not resulted in significantly higher excess and obsolete inventory costs. The higher accelerated depreciation in the nine month period in 2007 was a result of facilities closed or that will be closed in connection with our consolidation and globalization strategy.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

	(dollars in thousands)

Selling, general and administrative expenses	$	773,817	$	808,393	$	(34,576	)		(4.3	)%

Selling, general and administrative expenses were $35 million lower in the nine month period in 2007 compared to the same nine month period in 2006. Our expenses were lower partially due to lower spin off and related charges of $36 million, $26 million of lower media, advertising and promotion expenses that were primarily non-media related, $6 million in amortization of gain on curtailment of postretirement benefits and $5 million of savings from prior restructuring actions. The lower media, advertising and promotion expenses are primarily non-media related and may vary from period to period due to timing of actual spending during the full year 2007 versus 2006. The lower non-media expenses are primarily attributable to cost reduction initiatives and better deployment of these resources. In addition, our pension expense was lower by $12 million which included a $5 million adjustment related to the final separation of our pension assets and liabilities from those of Sara Lee.

Our cost reduction efforts during the nine month period have allowed us to offset higher stand alone expenses associated with being an independent company of $11 million and make investments in our strategic initiatives resulting in higher technology consulting expenses of $10 million and $7 million of higher media related media, advertising and promotion expenses in the nine month period in 2007. In addition, our allocations of overhead costs were $22 million lower during the nine month period in 2007 compared to the same nine month period in 2006. Accelerated deprecation was $2 million higher in the nine month period in 2007 as a result of facilities closed or that will be closed in connection with our consolidation and globalization strategy.

Restructuring	$	44,533	$	9,551	$	34,982		366.3	%

During the nine month period in 2007, we approved actions to close 14 manufacturing facilities and two distribution centers affecting approximately 7,475 employees in Canada, the Dominican Republic, Mexico, Brazil and the United States while moving production to lower-cost operations in Central America and Asia. In addition, approximately 428 management and administrative positions are being eliminated, with the majority of these positions based in the United States. These actions resulted in a charge of $45 million, representing costs associated with the planned termination of 7,903 employees, primarily attributable to employee and other termination benefits recognized in accordance with benefit plans previously communicated to the affected employee group. In addition, we recognized a charge of $10 million for estimated lease termination costs associated with facility closures announced in the nine months ended September 30, 2006, for facilities which were exited during 2007.

In connection with our consolidation and globalization strategy, a non-cash charge of $29 million and $2 million, respectively, of accelerated depreciation of buildings and equipment for facilities that have been closed or will be closed is reflected in the “Cost of sales” and “Selling, general and administrative expenses” lines of the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Income. These actions, which are a continuation of our consolidation and globalization strategy, are expected to result in benefits of moving production to lower-cost manufacturing facilities, leveraging our large scale in high-volume products and consolidating production capacity.

Operating profit was lower in the nine month period in 2007 by $7 million compared to the same nine month period in 2006 primarily as a result of higher restructuring charges of $35 million and lower gross profit of $7 million partially offset by lower selling, general and administrative expenses of $35 million. Our ability to control costs and execute on our consolidation and globalization strategy during the nine month period in 2007 has allowed us to more than offset $17 million of higher investments in our strategic initiatives and $11 million of higher standalone expenses associated with being an independent company.

Interest expense, net was higher in the nine month period in 2007 by $126 million compared to the same nine month period in 2006 primarily as a result of the indebtedness incurred in connection with the spin off from Sara Lee on September 5, 2006, consisting of $2.6 billion pursuant to a new senior secured credit facility, a new senior secured second lien credit facility and a bridge loan facility. In December 2006, we issued $500 million of floating rate senior notes and the net proceeds were used to repay the bridge loan facility. In February 2007, we entered into a first amendment to our senior secured credit facility with our lenders which primarily lowered the applicable borrowing margin with respect to the Term B loan facility from 2.25% to 1.75% on LIBOR based loans and from 1.25% to 0.75% on Base Rate loans.

Our effective income tax rate was 30.0% in the nine month period in 2007 compared to 24.4% in the same nine month period in 2006. The higher effective tax rate is attributable primarily to lower unremitted earnings from foreign subsidiaries in the nine month period in 2007 taxed at rates less than the U.S. statutory rate.

Overall net sales in the Innerwear segment were lower by $13 million or 0.7% in the nine month period in 2007 compared to the same nine month period in 2006. We experienced lower sales volume of Playtex brand intimate apparel sales of $23 million, lower Hanes brand kids’ underwear sales of $17 million and lower licensed men’s underwear sales in the department store channel of $11 million. The lower net sales were partially offset by higher Hanes brand intimate apparel, socks and sleepwear sales of $14 million, $11 million

and $7 million, respectively, and higher Bali brand sales of $6 million. Our Hanes brand intimate apparel sales were higher primarily as a result of the Hanes All-Over Comfort Bra that was introduced earlier this year in a new national television, print and Internet advertising campaign.

As a percent of segment net sales, gross profit percentage in the Innerwear segment was 37.6% in the nine month period in 2007 compared to 37.5% in the same nine month period in 2006. While our gross profit percentage slightly improved, our gross profit was lower from lower sales volume and unfavorable plant performance of $12 million, $10 million in higher cotton costs, higher excess and obsolete inventory costs of $10 million and unfavorable product sales mix of $9 million. These higher expenses were partially offset by lower duty costs of $16 million primarily due to the receipt of $7 million in duty refunds relating to duties paid several years ago, lower allocations of overhead costs of $15 million and $6 million in savings from our cost reduction initiatives.

The lower Innerwear segment operating profit in the nine month period in 2007 compared to the same nine month period in 2006 is primarily attributable to lower gross profit on lower sales volume and a higher allocation of selling, general and administrative expenses of $28 million. These higher expenses were partially offset by lower media, advertising and promotion expenses of $15 million. Our consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses before segment allocations were lower in the nine month period in 2007 compared to the same nine month period in 2006 primarily due to lower spin off and related charges, lower media, advertising and promotion expenses, lower distribution expenses, amortization of gain on curtailment of postretirement benefits and lower pension expense offset by lower allocations of overhead costs, higher accelerated depreciation and higher technology consulting expenses.

Net sales in the Outerwear segment were higher by $40 million in the nine month period in 2007 compared to the same nine month period in 2006 primarily as a result of higher Champion brand activewear and Hanes brand retail casualwear net sales. Champion, our second largest brand, benefited from higher penetration in the mid-tier department store and sporting goods channels. Overall retail casualwear and activewear net sales were higher by $46 million and $34 million, respectively, in the nine month period in 2007 compared to the same nine month period in 2006. The higher net sales were partially offset by lower net sales in our casualwear business as a result of lower sales of promotional t-shirts sold primarily through our embellishment channel of $40 million.

As a percent of segment net sales, gross profit percentage in the Outerwear segment was 21.7% in the nine month period in 2007 compared to 19.9% in the same nine month period in 2006. The improvement in gross profit is primarily attributable to savings from our cost reduction initiatives and prior restructuring actions of $15 million, improved plant performance of $15 million, favorable product sales mix of $7 million and lower allocations of overhead costs of $7 million offset primarily by higher cotton costs of $12 million, higher excess and obsolete inventory costs of $5 million and higher duty costs of $4 million.

The lower Outerwear segment operating profit in the nine month period in 2007 compared to the same nine month period in 2006 is primarily attributable to a higher gross profit which was more than offset by higher media, advertising and promotion expenses of $4 million and a higher allocation of selling, general and administrative expenses of $27 million. Our consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses before segment allocations were lower in the nine month period in 2007 compared to the same nine month period in 2006 primarily due to lower spin off and related charges, lower media, advertising and promotion expenses, lower distribution expenses, amortization of gain on curtailment of postretirement benefits and lower pension

Net sales in the Hosiery segment were slightly lower by $2 million in the nine month period in 2007 compared to the same nine month period in 2006 primarily due to lower sales of the L’eggs brand to mass retailers and food and drug stores.

As a percent of segment net sales, gross profit percentage was 46.7% in the nine month period in 2007 compared to 38.9% in the same nine month period in 2006 primarily due improved plant performance of $8 million and $4 million in savings from our cost reduction initiatives and prior restructuring actions.

Hosiery segment operating profit was higher in the nine month period in 2007 compared to the same nine month period in 2006 primarily due to a higher gross profit, $8 million in lower media, advertising and promotion expenses and $10 million in lower allocated selling, general and administrative expenses and the improvement in gross profit. Our consolidated selling, general and administrative expenses before segment allocations were lower in the nine month period in 2007 compared to the same nine month period in 2006 primarily due to lower spin off and related charges, lower media, advertising and promotion expenses, lower distribution expenses, amortization of gain on curtailment of postretirement benefits and lower pension expense offset by lower allocations of overhead costs, higher accelerated depreciation and higher technology consulting expenses.

Overall net sales in the International segment were higher in the nine month period in 2007 compared to the same nine month period in 2006. During the nine month period in 2007 we experienced higher net sales in Europe of $14 million and higher net sales of $2 million in our emerging markets in Asia which were partially offset by lower sales in Canada of $9 million. The growth in our European casualwear business was primarily driven by the strength of the Stedman and Hanes brands that are sold in the screen print channel. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates had a favorable impact on net sales of $7 million in the nine month period in 2007 compared to the same nine month period in 2006.

As a percent of segment net sales, gross profit percentage was 41.1% in the nine month period in 2007 and the same nine month period in 2006.

The higher International segment operating profit in the nine month period in 2007 compared to the same nine month period in 2006 is primarily attributable to the higher gross profit from higher sales volume.

General Corporate Expenses

General corporate expenses were lower in the nine month period in 2007 compared to the same nine month period in 2006 primarily due to lower spin off and related charges of $36 million, amortization of gain on postretirement benefits of $6 million, a $5 million favorable adjustment related to the final separation of our pension plan assets and liabilities from those of Sara Lee and $3 million in lower expenses related to various areas. These lower expenses were partially offset by higher stand alone expenses associated with being an independent company of $11 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Trends and Uncertainties Affecting Liquidity

Our primary sources of liquidity are our cash flows from operating activities and availability under our revolving loan facility described below. The following has or is expected to negatively impact our liquidity:


	•	we have principal and interest obligations under our long-term debt;

	•	we expect to continue to invest in efforts to improve operating efficiencies and lower costs;

	•	we expect to continue to add new manufacturing capacity in Central America, the Caribbean Basin and Asia;

	•	we may need to increase the portion of the income of our foreign subsidiaries that is expected to be remitted to the United States, which could significantly increase our income tax expense; and

	•	we expect to repurchase up to 10 million shares of our stock in the open market over the next few years, 1.6 million of which we have repurchased as of September 29, 2007.

We believe that our cash provided from operating activities, together with our available credit capacity, will enable us to comply with the terms of our indebtedness and meet presently foreseeable financial requirements.

We expect to continue the restructuring efforts that we have undertaken since the spin off from Sara Lee. For example, during the nine months ended September 29, 2007, in furtherance of our efforts to execute our consolidation and globalization strategy, we approved actions that will result in the closure of 14 manufacturing facilities and two distribution centers. The implementation of these efforts, which are designed to improve operating efficiencies and lower costs, has resulted and is likely to continue to result in significant costs. As further plans are developed and approved by management and our board of directors, we expect to recognize additional restructuring costs to eliminate duplicative functions within the organization and transition a significant portion of our manufacturing capacity to lower-cost locations in other countries. As a result of these efforts, we expect to incur approximately $250 million in restructuring and related charges over the three year period following the spin off from Sara Lee approximately half of which is expected to be noncash. As of September 29, 2007, we have recognized approximately $109 million in restructuring and related charges

related to these efforts. We also expect to continue to incur costs associated with the integration of our information technology systems across our company over the next several years.

As we continue to add new manufacturing capacity in Central America, the Caribbean Basin and Asia, our exposure to events that could disrupt our foreign supply chain, including political instability, acts of war or terrorism or other international events resulting in the disruption of trade, disruptions in shipping and freight forwarding services, increases in oil prices (which would increase the cost of shipping), interruptions in the availability of basic services and infrastructure and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, is increased. Disruptions in our foreign supply chain could negatively impact our liquidity by interrupting production in offshore facilities, increasing our cost of sales, disrupting merchandise deliveries, delaying receipt of the products into the United States or preventing us from sourcing our products at all. Depending on timing, these events could also result in lost sales, cancellation charges or excessive markdowns. For a discussion of these and other risk factors facing our business, see the risk factors section of our Report on Form 10-KT for the six months ended December 30, 2006 and “Risk Factors” in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

As a result of provisions of the Pension Protection Act of 2006, we are required, commencing with plan years beginning after 2007, to make larger contributions to our pension plans than Sara Lee made with respect to these plans in past years. The final separation of our pension plan assets and liabilities from those of Sara Lee which will result in a higher total amount of pension assets being transferred to us than was originally estimated prior to the spin off, together with our contributions of $48 million in December 2006, $42 million in March 2007 and $6 million in September 2007 to our pension plans, has resulted in our qualified pension plans currently being approximately 97% funded which should result in minimal pension funding requirements in the future. We have met our minimum funding requirements for 2007.

Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities

Net cash provided by operating activities was $236 million in the nine month period in 2007 compared to $201 million in the same nine month period in 2006. The higher cash provided from operating activities of $35 million was primarily the result of better management of working capital, which reflects $48 million in pension contributions, partially offset by lower earnings in the business primarily attributable to higher interest expense, a higher effective income tax rate and higher restructuring and related charges.

Net Cash Used in Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $50 million in the nine month period in 2007 compared to $76 million in the same nine month period in 2006. The lower cash used in investing activities of $26 million was primarily the result of lower purchases of property and equipment and higher cash received from sales of property and equipment relating to our restructuring actions partially offset by the cash portion of the cost of acquiring of the textile manufacturing operations of Industrias Duraflex, S.A. de C.V. in El Salvador. While capital spending can vary from quarter to quarter, we anticipate that over the long term our capital expenditures will be approximately level with our annual depreciation of $110 million.

Net Cash Used in Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $168 million in the nine month period in 2007 compared to $428 million in the same nine month period in 2006. The lower cash used in financing activities of $260 million was primarily the result of the elimination of net transactions with parent companies and related entities subsequent to the spin off from Sara Lee and lower net borrowings and repayments on notes payable to banks in the nine month period in 2007, partially offset by an increase in repayments of debt under credit facilities and share repurchases in the nine month period in 2007.

During the nine month period in 2007, we repaid $128 million of long-term debt, of which $125 million was a prepayment. In addition, we repurchased $44 million of company stock pursuant to a program approved by the Board of Directors in January 2007 which authorizes repurchase of up to 10 million shares of our common stock.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

As of September 29, 2007 and December 30, 2006, cash and cash equivalents were $176 million and $156 million, respectively. The higher cash and cash equivalents as of September 29, 2007 was primarily the result of better management of working capital and the elimination of net transactions with parent companies and related entities subsequent to the spin off from Sara Lee, partially offset by lower net income and the repayment of debt under credit facilities in 2007.

Revolving Loan Facility

We have significant liquidity based on our availability under the Revolving Loan Facility provided under the senior secured credit facility that we entered into in September 2006. As of September 29, 2007, $69 million of standby and trade letters of credit were issued under this facility and $431 million was available for borrowings.

Significant Accounting Policies and Critical Estimates

We have chosen accounting policies that we believe are appropriate to accurately and fairly report our operating results and financial position 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, titled “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” to our Combined and Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Report on Form 10-KT for the six months ended December 30, 2006.

The application of these 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 accounting policies that involve the most significant management judgments and estimates used in preparation of our consolidated 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 Report on Form 10-KT for the six months ended December 30, 2006. There have been no material changes during the nine months ended September 29, 2007 in these policies except as follows:

Goodwill

During the third quarter of fiscal 2007, we changed the timing of our annual goodwill impairment testing to the first day of the third fiscal quarter. Prior to fiscal 2007, our policy was to perform the test at the end of the second fiscal quarter which coincided with Sara Lee’s policy before the spin off. The change in the annual goodwill impairment testing date was made following the change in our fiscal year-end from the Saturday closest to June 30 to the Saturday closest to December 31 and results in the testing continuing to be performed in the middle of our fiscal year. In addition, this accounting change better aligns the annual goodwill impairment test with the timing of our annual long range planning cycle. The change in accounting principle does not delay, accelerate or avoid an impairment charge. Accordingly, we believe that the accounting change described above is preferable under the circumstances.

Income Taxes

In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Interpretation 48, Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes (“FIN 48”), which became effective during the first quarter ended March 31, 2007. FIN 48 addresses the determination of how tax benefits claimed or expected to be claimed on a tax return should be recorded in the financial statements. Under FIN 48, a company must recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. The tax benefits

recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than fifty percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate resolution. The impact of the reassessment of our tax positions in accordance with FIN 48 did not have a material impact on our results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.

For additional information regarding the adoption of FIN 48, see Note 5, Income Taxes. For further discussion of our critical accounting estimates related to income taxes, see our Report on Form 10-KT for the six months ended December 30, 2006.

Issued But Not Yet Effective Accounting Standards

Fair Value Measurements

The FASB has issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements, or “SFAS 157,” which provides guidance for using fair value to measure assets and liabilities. The standard also responds to investors’ requests for more information about (1) the extent to which companies measure assets and liabilities at fair value, (2) the information used to measure fair value, and (3) the effect that fair-value measurements have on earnings. SFAS 157 will apply whenever another standard requires (or permits) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. The standard does not expand the use of fair value to any new circumstances. SFAS 157 is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. We are currently evaluating the impact, if any, of SFAS 157 on our results of operations and financial position.

Pension and Other Postretirement Benefits

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 158, Employer’s Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans (an amendment of FASB Statements No. 87, 88, 106, and 132R), or “SFAS 158.” SFAS 158 requires an employer to recognize in its statement of financial position an asset for a plan’s overfunded status, or a liability for a plan’s underfunded status, measure a plan’s assets and its obligations that determine its funded status as of the end of the employer’s fiscal year (with limited exceptions), and recognize changes in the funded status of a defined benefit postretirement plan in the year in which the changes occur. Those changes will be reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss and as a separate component of stockholders’ equity. We adopted the provision to recognize the funded status of a benefit plan and the disclosure requirements during the six months ended December 30, 2006. The requirement to measure plan assets and benefit obligations as of the date of the employer’s fiscal year-end is effective for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2008. We plan to adopt the measurement date provision in fiscal 2007.

Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities

In February 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 159, The Fair Value Option for Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities, including an amendment of FASB Statement No. 115 (“SFAS 159”). SFAS 159 permits companies to choose to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value that are not currently required to be measured at fair value and establishes presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between companies that choose different measurement attributes for similar types of assets and liabilities. The provisions of SFAS 159 become effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. We are currently evaluating the impact that SFAS 159 will have on our results of operations and financial position.


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 Report on Form 10-KT for the six months ended December 30, 2006.


Item 4.	*Controls and Procedures*

As required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(b), our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and 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 report. Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

In connection with the evaluation required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(d), our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and 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.


Item 4T.	*Controls and Procedures*

Not applicable.

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 or financial condition.


Item 1A.	*Risk Factors*

Our Report on Form 10-KT for the six months ended December 30, 2006 includes a risk factor that described risks associated with the fact that we assumed pension obligations from Sara Lee that were $225 million more than the corresponding pension assets, which resulted in our pension plans being underfunded. The risk factor described the risks that we could be required by law to make larger contributions to our pension plans than Sara Lee made with respect to these plans in past years and that we could be required to make contributions to the pension plans in excess of our expectations at the time. Finally, the risk factor indicated that a significant increase in our funding obligations could have a negative impact on our cash flows, liquidity and results of operations.

During the quarter ended September 29, 2007, we substantially completed the separation of our pension plan assets and liabilities from those of Sara Lee, which will result in a higher total amount of pension assets being transferred to us than was originally estimated prior to the spin off. In addition, we contributed $48 million in December 2006, $42 million in March 2007 and $6 million in September 2007 to our pension plans. As a result of these actions, our qualified pension plans currently are approximately 97% funded, and thus we believe that the risks described above are not currently among the most significant risks associated with our business. This assessment is based on current information, and may change if financial conditions change or if the assumptions we have used to calculate our pension costs and obligations turn out to be inaccurate. If either of these possibilities occur, we could be required to make contributions to the pension plans in excess of our current expectations for future years. In addition, we may be required to make larger contributions to our pension plans than Sara Lee made with respect to these plans in past years. As disclosed previously, any such significant increase in our funding obligations could have a negative impact on our cash flows, liquidity and results of operations.


Item 2.	*Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds*

The following table provides information about purchases by Hanesbrands during the third quarter ended September 29, 2007 of equity securities that are registered by us pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act:

Board of Directors

Hanesbrands Inc.

1000 East Hanes Mill Road

Winston-Salem, North Carolina 27105

Dear Directors:

We are providing this letter to you for inclusion as an exhibit to your Form 10-Q filing pursuant to Item 601 of Regulation S-K.

We have been provided a copy of the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 29, 2007. Note 1 therein describes a change in accounting principle relating to the change in the date of the annual goodwill impairment test under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets (FAS 142). It should be understood that the preferability of one acceptable method of accounting over another for the change in the date of the annual goodwill impairment test under FAS 142 has not been addressed in any authoritative accounting literature, and in expressing our concurrence below we have relied on management’s determination that this change in accounting principle is preferable. Based on our reading of management’s stated reasons and justification for this change in accounting principle in the Form 10-Q, and our discussions with management as to their judgment about the relevant business planning factors relating to the change, we concur with management that such change represents, in the Company’s circumstances, the adoption of a preferable accounting principle in conformity with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 154, Accounting Changes and Error Corrections.

We have not audited any financial statements of the Company as of any date or for any period subsequent to December 30, 2006. Accordingly, our comments are subject to change upon completion of an audit of the financial statements covering the period of the accounting change.

Very truly yours,

/s/ PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP

CERTIFICATION PURSUANT TO
SECTION 302 OF THE
SARBANES-OXLEY ACT OF 2002

I, Richard A. Noll, certify that:

1. I have reviewed this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q of Hanesbrands Inc.;

2. Based on my knowledge, this report does not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements made, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading with respect to the period covered by this report;

3. Based on my knowledge, the financial statements, and other financial information included in this report, fairly present in all material respects the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the registrant as of, and for, the periods presented in this report;

4. The registrant’s other certifying officer(s) and I are responsible for establishing and maintaining disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) for the registrant and have:

(a) Designed such disclosure controls and procedures, or caused such disclosure controls and procedures to be designed under our supervision, to ensure that material information relating to the registrant, including its consolidated subsidiaries, is made known to us by others within those entities, particularly during the period in which this report is being prepared;

(b) Evaluated the effectiveness of the registrant’s disclosure controls and procedures and presented in this report our conclusions about the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures, as of the end of the period covered by this report based on such evaluation; and

(c) Disclosed in this report any change in the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the registrant’s most recent fiscal quarter (the registrant’s fourth fiscal quarter in the case of an annual report) that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the registrant’s internal control over financial reporting; and

5. The registrant’s other certifying officer(s) and I have disclosed, based on our most recent evaluation of internal control over financial reporting, to the registrant’s auditors and the audit committee of the registrant’s board of directors (or persons performing the equivalent functions):
