Exhibit 99.1

 

 

TEMPUR-PEDIC INTERNATIONAL INC. ANNOUNCES FILING OF AMENDMENT TO S-4 REGISTRATION STATEMENT INCLUDING AUDITED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2003.

 

For Immediate Release

 

LEXINGTON, KENTUCKY, FEBRUARY 27, 2004 — Tempur-Pedic International Inc. (NYSE: TPX) announced today that it filed an amendment to its Registration Statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-109054), which includes audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2003 and other updated information reflecting full year results for 2003. Tempur-Pedic International is a rapidly growing, vertically-integrated manufacturer, marketer and distributor of premium visco-elastic foam mattresses and pillows that it sells globally in 54 countries primarily under the Tempur® and Tempur-Pedic® brands.

 

The financial information for 2003 included in these audited financial statements is consistent with the information included in the Company’s earnings release dated February 12, 2004, except that the Company has reclassified its Loss on debt extinguishment, previously captioned as “Transaction related expenses”, for 2003 in the amount of $13.7 million to “Other income (expense) net”. The Company believes the reclassification results in a more appropriate classification within the income statement and improves the usefulness of its financial statements. This reclassification had no effect on the Company’s reported net income. Set forth below is a summary of the Company’s financial results for the three months and year ended December 31, 2003, giving effect to this reclassification.
