As previously reported, Stifel analyst Jim Duffy upgraded Hanesbrands to Buy from Hold, noting that the Champion brand is experiencing positive momentum in the lifestyle apparel space while its acquisitions in recent years have diversified the revenue mix and improved the overall portfolio's characteristics. Additionally, he sees limited downside risk for the shares given the company's free cash generation and already cautious investor sentiment and depressed valuation, Duffy tells investors. He raise his price target on Hanesbrands to $23 from $21.
