THIRD QUARTER FINANCIAL SUMMARY

• Earnings per diluted share ("EPS") under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") in the third quarter of 2013 were $0.65 compared to GAAP EPS of ($0.03) in the third quarter of 2012. The 2013 results reflect transaction and integration costs related to the acquisition of Sealy Corporation ("Sealy") and interest fees related to the Company's refinancing of its Term A Facility under its senior secured credit facility. The 2012 loss reflects tax charges related to the Sealy acquisition.
• Adjusted EPS were $0.73 in the third quarter of 2013 as compared to adjusted EPS of $0.70 in the third quarter of 2012. The Company completed its acquisition of Sealy in March 2013, and results for 2012 do not include Sealy.
• GAAP net income in the third quarter of 2013 was $40.2 million as compared to a GAAP net loss of $2.0 million for the third quarter of 2012. The Company reported adjusted net income of $44.9 million for the third quarter of 2013 as compared to adjusted net income of $42.3 million for the third quarter of 2012. For additional information regarding adjusted EPS and adjusted net income (which are non-GAAP measures), please refer to the reconciliations and other information included in the attached schedules.
• Total net sales increased 111.4% to $735.5 million in the third quarter of 2013 from $347.9 million in the third quarter of 2012. The net sales increase was due to the inclusion of $389.9 million of Sealy net sales for the third quarter of 2013.
• Gross profit margin was 40.6% as compared to 49.2% in the third quarter of 2012. The gross profit margin decreased primarily as a result of the inclusion of Sealy, which has lower margins than the Tempur North America and Tempur International segments, and changes in product mix, offset partially by lower sourcing costs.
• Operating income was $81.2 million as compared to $63.4 million in the third quarter of 2012. Operating income in the third quarter of 2013 included $8.5 million of transaction and integration costs related to the Sealy acquisition. The higher operating income reflects the inclusion of Sealy.
• Adjusted EBITDA (which is a non-GAAP measure) for the third quarter of 2013 was $115.5 million. EBITDA (which is a non-GAAP measure) for the third quarter of 2012 was $69.3 million.
• The Company ended the quarter with consolidated funded debt less qualified cash of $1.8 billion. The ratio of consolidated funded debt less qualified cash to adjusted EBITDA was 4.3 times, calculated on a combined basis for Tempur-Pedic and Sealy in accordance with the Company's new senior secured credit facility. For additional information regarding EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and consolidated funded debt less qualified cash (which are non-GAAP measures) please refer to the reconciliations and other information included in the attached schedules.

Tempur Sealy International, Inc. CEO Mark Sarvary commented, "Overall our third quarter was in line with our expectations. The steps we have taken to improve Tempur North America's performance showed progress and led to a slight sales increase during the quarter. Our Sealy business also showed growth during the quarter. However, Tempur International results were slightly below our plan due to continued weakness in Europe. The integration with Sealy continues to progress well, cost synergies continue to track to our plan, and we remain very excited about our ability to capture significant revenue synergies."

TEMPUR SEALY INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
(In millions, except per common share amounts)

The Company provides information regarding adjusted net income, adjusted earnings per share, earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization ("EBITDA"), adjusted EBITDA, and consolidated funded debt and consolidated funded debt less qualified cash, which are not recognized terms under U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP") and do not purport to be alternatives to net income as a measure of operating performance or total debt. A reconciliation of adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share is provided below. Management believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with additional useful information with respect to the impact of various costs associated with the Sealy Acquisition. A reconciliation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to the Company's net income and a reconciliation of total debt to consolidated funded debt and consolidated funded debt less qualified cash are also provided below. Management believes that the use of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, consolidated funded debt and consolidated funded debt less qualified cash also provides investors with useful information with respect to the terms of the Company's new senior secured credit facility and the Company's compliance with key financial covenants. Because not all companies use identical calculations, these presentations may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies.

This information is presented solely for the purpose of providing information to investors regarding the Company's compliance with certain financial covenants  in its new senior secured credit facility that are based on adjusted EBITDA. This information does not include the pro forma adjustments that would be required under Regulation S-X for pro forma financial information, and does not reflect future events that may occur after September 30, 2013 or any operating efficiencies or inefficiencies that may result from the Sealy acquisition and related financing. Therefore, the information is not necessarily indicative of results that would have been achieved had the businesses been combined during the periods presented or the results that the Company will experience going forward.
