New Issue: Hanesbrands sells upsized €500 million 3½% eight-year bullet at par

By Paul A. Harris

Portland, Ore., May 19 – Hanesbrands Inc. priced an upsized €500 million issue of eight-year senior notes (Ba1/BB) at par to yield 3½% on Thursday, according to a market source.

The yield printed at the tight end of the 3½% to 3¾% yield talk. Initial price talk was in the mid-to-high 3% yield context.

Active bookrunner Barclays will bill and deliver. BofA Merrill Lynch, HSBC and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC were the joint bookrunners.

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.
