Review of Gildan Activewear Inc.

NOV 07, 2024 - GIL has been a consistent, longstanding Canadian clothing provider. The company’s vertically integrated supply chain has been a key value creator which has allowed GIL to carve out an international position in the ever-competitive clothing industry. We think GIL looks attractive despite the valuation expanding to higher historical levels. We are maintaining our B rating out of prudence to the leadership changes but will consider a re-rating if performance continues to be strong.

Q: Gildan's debt is a little high but other metrics look good. Wondering if you think they can profit from "buy Canadian" momentum.

Have owned AXON, sold at nice profit. Thinking of re-entering. Would you enter now or wait?

Thanks for your wise counsel,

Mike

Q: I'm considering shareholder yield as a factor for investing. Can I have your opinion of such a strategy and is there a favourable/preferred % when looking at companies? Finally, would you have 5 US and 5 TSX companies that you would choose when considering this approach? Dock me as many questions as you like and thanks!

Please comment on the prospects of GIL with respect to 'tariff' climate, 2025 performance, and entry price point.
