The Winston-Salem, North Carolina-based company said Scott Lewis, the company’s chief accounting officer and controller will become interim chief financial officer until a successor for Dastugue is named.  Dastugue, who has departed for family reasons, will continue to serve the company in a financial consultancy position through the second quarter of 2023.

​ ​“On behalf of our board, our management team and the entire HanesBrands family, I would like to express our sincere thanks to Michael for his leadership and significant contributions to our company,” Bratspies added. “Michael has been a great partner to me personally. I value his friendship, and I respect his request to spend more time with his family.”

In its most recent trading update in November, HanesBrands ​showed a slowdown, as consumer spending in its core U.S. market faltered, U.S. stores tightened their inventories and some Asian markets proved patchy.

The company at the time of reporting said net sales from continuing operations were down 7% to $1.67 billion year-over-year, which included a $59 million unfavorable impact from foreign exchange rates, compared to last year. On a constant currency basis, net sales fell only 3%.
