- Continuing-operations net earnings were $90.4 million, or $0.49 diluted EPS, versus $137.9 million and $0.91 a year ago.
- Total net earnings were a $50.0 million loss, reflecting a $140.4 million loss from discontinued operations.

Management points and uncertainty
- The shareholder report centers on integrating HanesBrands, selling the former HanesBrands Australia operation, and deleveraging.
- Management also identifies capacity expansion, customer demand, cotton and energy costs, tariffs, and execution of the integration as key operational considerations.
- The decision-relevant uncertainty is the quality of underlying earnings and cash conversion once acquisition accounting, the tariff refund, subsidy benefit, and restructuring costs normalize.
