Stock Track11-11

Hanesbrands Inc. (NYSE: HBI), the leading apparel company known for brands like Hanes and Champion, experienced a significant stock price drop of 6.32% on November 8, 2024, following the release of its Q3 2024 financial results.

While the company reported flat organic revenue and margin improvement driven by lower product costs, analysts expressed concerns about Hanesbrands' ability to achieve its long-term margin targets of 15%. Despite the completion of the Champion divestment and debt repayment, which initially boosted the stock by 18%, the company's historical performance raised doubts about its future profitability.

Additionally, higher SG&A expenses due to increased marketing and talent investments weighed on the company's financials. Despite the potential for growth in Q4 from promotions and new distribution points, analysts maintained a cautious stance, citing uncertainties surrounding Hanesbrands' long-term margin targets and profitability under current adjusted conditions.
