Item 2.02    Results of Operations and Financial Condition

On April 4, 2013, Hanesbrands Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release (i) providing preliminary financial results for the first quarter ended March 30, 2013, (ii) reaffirming its full-year earnings, sales and financial guidance for 2013 and (iii) announcing the declaration of a regular quarterly dividend on its common stock in the amount of $0.20 per share, payable on June 3, 2013 to stockholders of record as of May 20, 2013. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. 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 about free cash flow, which is not calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less net capital expenditures. While the Company’s management believes that free cash flow is a useful measure of the cash-generating ability of the Company relative to capital expenditures and financial performance, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and not as a substitute for the related financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of free cash flow to net cash provided by operating activities, calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, is included in Exhibit 99.1. 

Item 5.02    Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

At the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on April 3, 2013 (the “Annual Meeting”), the Company’s stockholders approved an amendment and restatement of the Hanesbrands Inc. Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) previously approved the amendment and restatement of the Plan on January 29, 2013, subject to stockholder approval. The amendments to the Plan include:

An increase in the number of shares authorized for issuance under the Plan by 2,700,000 shares;
An extension of the term of the Plan by 10 years;
Eliminating the recycling of, among other things, shares tendered or withheld for payment of the exercise price of the award or to satisfy withholding taxes;
Requiring dividend equivalents on unvested awards to be held in escrow until vesting;
Limiting the value of awards that may be granted to a non-employee director during any fiscal year to $1 million;
Automatic exercise of any options or stock appreciation rights that are in the money on the expiration date; and
Certain other administrative changes.
    
The foregoing summary of the Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the copy of the Plan that is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1. For additional information regarding the Plan, please refer to “Proposal 2 – Approval of the Amended and Restated Hanesbrands Inc.
