Hanesbrands Is Mature And Stagnated, Does Not Deserve A 10x Multiple
Hanesbrands' FY 2025 guidance forecasts just 1% sales growth and modest margin expansion, reflecting a mature company, not a growth stock, leading to a significant stock price drop. Despite a 4.5% YoY revenue increase in Q4 2024, organic growth was only 2.5%, highlighting limited upside; margin gains were due to reduced discounting. High SG&A expenses, ongoing inefficiencies, and a CEO transition underscore management quality issues; interest expenses remain high, impacting financial health.
