On March 3, 2015, HanesBrands stockholders received three additional shares of common stock for each share of common stock they owned. The shares were distributed as a stock dividend to shareholders of record Feb. 9, 2015.
“Hanes has generated significant value for shareholders through execution of its business strategies, stock price appreciation and quarterly cash dividends,” Hanes Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Richard A. Noll said. “We have posted record results for sales, adjusted operating profit, and adjusted earnings per share the past two years and our guidance for 2015 would represent another year of record results. We are taking advantage of our powerful company-owned global supply chain, Innovate-to-Elevate product platforms and acquisitions.”
