The clothing company said it earned $41 million, or 41 cents per share, for the period that ended Dec. 31. That&#8217;s up from $28.1 million, or 29 cents per share, earned in the prior fourth quarter. This was below analyst consensus forecasts of 51 cents per share.<\/p>\n<p>Net sales in the quarter decreased slightly to $1.15 billion falling below the $1.24 billion consensus estimate. For its full fiscal year HanesBrands earned $266.7 million, or $2.69 per share, versus $211.3 million, or $2.16 per share in the prior. Revenue increased more than 7 percent to $4.64 billion from $4.33 billion in the prior fiscal year.<\/p>\n<p>The company also issued a profit warning for the full year. The company also said it expects to earn $2.50 to $2.60 per share for the year. It anticipates revenue will increase 2 to 4 percent, which calculates to a range of roughly $4.73 billion to $4.83 billion. This is significantly below the analyst consensus forecast that called for earnings of $2.99 per share on revenue of $5 billion for the year.<\/p>\n<p><!--mfunc adshow_display_ad_file_v2(array('ad_random_1.txt'), array(100), array('align' => 'float right', 'clear' => '', 'margin_top' => '', 'margin_bottom' => '', 'padding_top' => '', 'padding_bottom' => ''), array(), array()) --><\/p>\n<div style=\"float:right;margin-left:5px;\"><script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\ngoogle_ad_client = \"ca-pub-1408583772585547\";\n\/* SMW - in News 300 *\/\ngoogle_ad_slot = \"5684630733\";\ngoogle_ad_width = 300;\ngoogle_ad_height = 250;\n\/\/-->\n<\/script><br \/>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"http:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/show_ads.js\">\n<\/script><\/div>\n<p><!--\/mfunc--><\/p>\n<p>The company said the quarter&#8217;s results were hurt by an &#8220;unexpected and substantial&#8221; slowing of orders in December as retailers tried to lower their inventory levels.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe achieved record earnings and sales in 2011 with strong performance in several of our categories, including underwear and socks, although we were disappointed with late fourth-quarter softness that yielded results below our expectations,\u201d Hanes Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Richard A.
