I stick with a "Buy" for Gildan Activewear, following my assessment of its capital allocation and business performance. GIL's core Activewear segment did well, offsetting weakness in Hosiery & Underwear, with price leadership and manufacturing efficiencies driving profitability. The Hanesbrands acquisition is expected to diversify revenue, optimize capacity, and deliver margin-related synergies.

Gildan Activewear is acquiring Hanesbrands to create a global leader in basic apparel, doubling revenue and diversifying operations. The deal brings significant scale, $200 million in targeted cost synergies, and a more balanced mix between activewear, innerwear, retail, and wholesale. Pro forma leverage rises to 3.2x EBITDA, with plans to reduce it via synergies and asset sales; EPS growth is projected at 20% CAGR through 2028.
