APPENDIX 24


 
Aspirational Plan(5) ➢ On August 7, 2017, the Company implemented a new Aspirational Program in the form of performance restricted stock units tied to challenging performance targets. This Aspirational Program builds on the challenging goals and the structure established in our original Aspirational Program adopted in 2015, with slightly revised performance goals and new performance periods, as we aligned the management team around our new aspirational targets following the termination with our largest customer in 2017. • Performance restricted stock units (“PRSUs”) for approximately 1.5 million shares of the Company’s common stock were granted to over 150 employees • PRSUs will vest based on adjusted EBITDA(1) performance measured on a rolling 4 quarter basis during two performance periods -- 2018 and 2019 and 2020 • If the minimum performance target is met for the applicable period, awards become payable shortly after the applicable period. If an officer or employee leaves for any reason prior to vesting, all of his or her PRSUs will be forfeited, subject to certain limited exceptions Achievement Schedule ~15% of total costs % of Total Grant of PRSUs That Will Vest Adjusted EBITDA January 1, 2018 – December 31, 2019 (Period 1) ≥ $650 100% $600 66% ~20% of total costs < $600 0% ▪ Measured quarterly on a trailing four quarter period ▪ If an award is earned in Period 1 the program ends, subject to a change of control provision ▪ If an award is not earned in Period 1, then ½ of the award lapses and ½ of the award remains available for vesting based on performance in Period 2 ▪ Prorated based on performance between $600 & $650, but is only payable at the end of the respective period (adjusted EBITDA target $ in millions) 25 For more information please refer to the Company’s Form 8-K filed on August 7, 2017


 
Forward-Looking Statements This investor presentation contains statements that may be characterized as "forward-looking," within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Such statements might include information concerning one or more of the Company's plans, guidance, objectives, goals, strategies, and other information that is not historical information. When used in this release, the words "assumes," "may," "estimates," "expects," "guidance," "anticipates," "projects," "plans," "proposed," "targets," "intends," "believes," "will" and variations of such words or similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements relating to the Company’s expectations regarding adjusted EBITDA for 2019 and performance generally for 2019 and subsequent periods and the Company's expectations for product launches over the next few quarters, increasing sales growth, expanding direct to consumer business (including expanding the Company’s Tempur-branded retail store presence) and ongoing productivity initiatives. Any forward-looking statements contained herein are based upon current expectations and beliefs and various assumptions. There can be no assurance that the Company will realize these expectations, meet its guidance, or that these beliefs will prove correct. Numerous factors, many of which are beyond the Company's control, could cause actual results to differ materially from any that may be expressed as forward-looking statements. These risk factors include the impact of the macroeconomic environment in both the U.S. and internationally (including the impact of highly inflationary economies) on the Company’s business segments and expectations regarding growth of the mattress industry; uncertainties arising from global events; the effects of strategic investments on the Company’s operations, including efforts to expand its global market share; the ability to develop and successfully launch new products; the efficiency and effectiveness of the Company’s advertising campaigns and other marketing programs; the ability to increase sales productivity within existing retail accounts and to further penetrate the retail channel, including the timing of opening or expanding within large retail accounts and the timing and success of product launches; the ability to continuously improve and expand the Company’s product line, maintain efficient, timely and cost-effective production and delivery of products, and manage growth; the effects of consolidation of retailers on revenues and costs; competition in the Company’s industry; consumer acceptance of the Company’s products; the effects of discontinued operations on the Company’s operating results and future performance; general economic, financial and industry conditions, particularly conditions relating to the financial performance and related credit issues present in the retail sector; financial distress among the Company’s business partners, customers and competitors; financial solvency and related problems experienced by other market participants; the Company’s reliance on information technology and the associated risks involving potential security lapses and/or cyber-based attacks; the outcome of pending tax audits or other tax, regulatory or investigation proceedings and pending litigation; changes in foreign tax rates and changes in tax laws generally, including the ability to utilize tax loss carryforwards; the Company’s capital structure and increased debt level, including its ability to meet financial obligations and continue to comply with the terms and financial ratio covenants of its credit facilities; changes in interest rates; effects of changes in foreign exchange rates on the Company’s reported earnings; changing commodity costs; disruptions in the supply of raw materials, or loss of suppliers; expectations regarding our target leverage and the Company’s share repurchase program; sales fluctuations due to seasonality; the effect of future legislative or regulatory changes, including changes in international trade duties, tariffs and other aspects of international trade policy; the Company’s ability to protect its intellectual property; and disruptions to the implementation of the Company’s strategic priorities and business plan caused by abrupt changes in its executive management team. Other potential risk factors include the risk factors discussed under the heading "Risk Factors" under ITEM 1A of Part 1 of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 and the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2018. There may be other factors that may cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. The Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made.

Footnotes 1. Adjusted Net Income, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, leverage, leverage ratio, and constant currency are a non-GAAP financial measures. Please refer to the "Use of Non- GAAP Financial Measures and Constant Currency Information" on slide 28 for more information regarding the definitions of adjusted Net Income, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, leverage, leverage ratio, and constant currency, including the adjustments (as applicable) from the corresponding GAAP information. Amounts shown for 2019 financial targets on slide 22 represent management estimates of adjusted EBITDA performance based on the Company’s guidance provided on February 14, 2019. Please refer to “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Limitations on Guidance” on slide 26. The Company notes that it is unable to reconcile this forward- looking non-GAAP financial measure to GAAP net income, its most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measure, without unreasonable efforts, because the Company is currently unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the type and extent of certain items that would be expected to impact GAAP net income in 2019 but would not impact adjusted EBITDA. These items that impact comparability may include restructuring activities, the impact of the termination of contracts with customers, foreign currency exchange rates, income taxes, and other items. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company's full year 2019 GAAP financial results. 2. Management estimates. 3. Based on the Company’s 2019 financial targets provided in the press release dated February 14, 2019 and the related earnings call on February 14, 2019. Please refer to “Forward-Looking Statements” and “Limitations on Guidance”. 4. Based on debt outstanding at December 31, 2018. For more information please refer to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018. 5. For more information about the aspirational plan and the terms of the aspirational PRSUs, please refer to the Company’s SEC filings. In addition, please refer to “Forward Looking Statements”. 27


 
Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Constant Currency Information In this investor presentation and certain of its press releases and SEC filings, the Company provides information regarding adjusted net income, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, consolidated funded debt less qualified cash, leverage and leverage ratio which are not recognized terms under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and do not purport to be alternatives to net income and earnings per share as a measure of operating performance or an alternative to total debt. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures provide investors with performance measures that better reflect the Company's underlying operations and trends, including trends in changes in margin and operating expenses, providing a perspective not immediately apparent from net income and operating income. The adjustments management makes to derive the non-GAAP measures include adjustments to exclude items that may cause short-term fluctuations in the nearest GAAP measure, but which management does not consider to be the fundamental attributes or primary drivers of the Company's business. The Company believes that exclusion of these items assists in providing a more complete understanding of the Company's underlying results from continuing operations and trends, and management uses these measures along with the corresponding GAAP financial measures to manage the Company's business, to evaluate its consolidated and business segment performance compared to prior periods and the marketplace, to establish operational goals and management incentive goals, and to provide continuity to investors for comparability purposes. Limitations associated with the use of these non-GAAP measures include that these measures do not present all of the amounts associated with the Company’s results as determined in accordance with GAAP and these non-GAAP measures should be considered supplemental in nature and should not be construed as more significant than comparable measures defined by GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, these presentations may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. For more information regarding the use of these non-GAAP financial measures, please refer to the reconciliations on the following pages and the Company’s SEC filings. Constant Currency Information In this presentation the Company refers to, and in other communications with investors the Company may refer to, net sales or earnings or other historical financial information on a "constant currency basis," which is a non-GAAP financial measure. These references to constant currency basis do not include operational impacts that could result from fluctuations in foreign currency rates. To provide information on a constant currency basis, the applicable financial results are adjusted based on a simple mathematical model that translates current period results in local currency using the comparable prior corresponding period's currency conversion rate. This approach is used for countries where the functional currency is the local country currency. This information is provided so that certain financial results can be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency rates, thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons of business performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA A reconciliation of the Company's GAAP net income to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA is provided on slide 29. Management believes that the use of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA provides investors with useful information with respect to the Company’s operating performance and comparisons from period to period. Adjusted Net Income A reconciliation of the Company's GAAP net income to adjusted net income and a calculation of adjusted EPS are provided on slide 30. Management believes that the use of adjusted net income and adjusted EPS also provides investors with useful information with respect to the Company’s operating performance and comparisons from period to period. Leverage Consolidated funded debt less qualified cash to adjusted EBITDA, which the Company may refer to as leverage, is provided on slide 31 and is calculated by dividing consolidated funded debt less qualified cash, as defined by the Company’s senior secured credit facility, by adjusted EBITDA. The Company provides this as supplemental information to investors regarding the Company’s operating performance and comparisons from period to period, as well as general information about the Company's progress in reducing its leverage. 28
