MONTREAL, May 23, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gildan Activewear Inc. (GIL: TSX and NYSE) (“Gildan” or “the Company”) today announced that the full Board of Directors has resigned, and Vince Tyra has stepped down as President and Chief Executive Officer, effective at the end of the day. The outgoing Board has appointed Browning West nominees to the Board of Directors, effective at that time. The outgoing Board has ceased discussions regarding the previously announced sale process.

Shareholders have made their views clear as we approach the May 28, 2024 Annual Meeting. The outgoing directors believe that it was in the best interests of all Gildan stakeholders for them to resign and not stand for election at the upcoming Annual Meeting, allowing the new Board to be seated so that it can oversee the Company in the most orderly and efficient manner. The outgoing directors wish the new directors, the management team, Gildan’s 45,000 employees, and its shareholders success in the future.
