By Paul A. Harris

Portland, Ore., May 18 – Hanesbrands Inc. talked its €450 million offering of non-callable eight-year senior notes (Ba1/BB) to yield 3½% to 3¾%, a market source said on Wednesday.

The official talk comes in line with earlier guidance in the mid-to-high 3% yield context.

The Rule 144A and Regulation S offering is set to price on Thursday.

Active bookrunner Barclays will bill and deliver for the Rule 144A and Regulation S offering. BofA Merrill Lynch, HSBC and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC are the joint bookrunners.

The notes feature a 101% poison put.

The Winston Salem, N.C.-based marketer of everyday basic apparel plans to use the proceeds to finance the acquisitions of Champion Europe and Pacific Brands Ltd.

The euro-denominated offering comes just two weeks after the company priced $1.8 billion of non-callable senior notes (Ba2/BB) in two tranches in a debt refinancing transaction on May 3.
