About Gildan

Gildan is a vertically integrated designer and manufacturer of basic apparel, including T-shirts, underwear, socks, and hosiery. Its primary market is the sale of blank T-shirts, sweatshirts, and other apparel to wholesalers, major clothing brands, and printers (printwear). Gildan also sells branded clothing through retail and direct-to-consumer channels. Brands include Gildan, American Apparel, Comfort Colors, and Goldtoe. Gildan produces most of its clothing at factories in Latin America but has been ramping up production at its new facility in Bangladesh. Incorporated in 1984, the Montreal-based company operates internationally but generates nearly 90% of its sales in the US. Gildan has agreed to acquire its US rival Hanesbrands to bolster its consumer and printwear operations.

What the Analysts think about Gildan

Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Gildan stock.

Bulls say / Bears say

The merger is expected to generate at least $200 million in annual run-rate cost synergies within three years, delivering immediate accretion of over 20% to adjusted diluted EPS and a projected 13% return versus an 8% cost of capital. (Reuters)
Gildan’s vertically integrated sourcing across Latin America and Bangladesh shields it from U.S. tariffs, bolstering its margin resilience and providing a cost advantage over competitors exposed to higher tariff regimes. (Financial Times)
In Q2 2025 Gildan delivered record net sales and earnings, with net sales rising 6.5% to $919 million and adjusted diluted EPS of $0.97, underlining the effectiveness of its Sustainable Growth strategy despite macro headwinds. (Financial Times)
Critics warn the HanesBrands deal disproportionately benefits Gildan at the expense of Hanes shareholders, as the 24% premium and $200 million synergies capture only a small share of value for Hanes investors, suggesting potential resistance or demands for better terms ahead. (Reuters)
HanesBrands has suffered declining sales over the past three years and no profit since 2021, raising concerns that integrating an underperforming business could weigh on combined margins and cash flows. (WSJ)
The financing for the HanesBrands acquisition will push pro forma net debt leverage to around 2.9x EBITDAR (up from 2.3x), near the upper end of its target range, delaying share repurchases and placing pressure on the company to execute deleveraging as planned. (MarketScreener)
