TEMPUR-PEDIC INTERNATIONAL REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR EARNINGS

 

    Pro Forma EPS Up 28% and GAAP EPS Up 30% in Fourth Quarter

    Company to Introduce New Mattresses, Expand R&D and Marketing Programs, and Increase Share Repurchase Program in 2006

 

LEXINGTON, KY, January 26, 2006 – Tempur-Pedic International Inc. (NYSE: TPX), the leading manufacturer, marketer and distributor of premium mattresses and pillows worldwide, today announced net sales and earnings for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2005. The Company also announced key business initiatives and financial guidance for 2006, a $100.0 million expansion of its share repurchase program and an additional repatriation of foreign earnings.

 

Fourth Quarter 2005 Financial Summary

 

    Net sales rose 9% to $215.6 million from $198.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2004. Retail channel sales worldwide increased 15%. Sales in the U.S. retail channel grew 7%. Sales in the international retail channel increased 30%.

 

    Pro forma EPS rose 28% to $0.32 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2005 from $0.25 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2004. EPS under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) rose 30% to $0.30 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2005 from $0.23 per diluted share in the fourth quarter of 2004.

 

    The Company repurchased more than 6.8 million shares of its common stock at a total cost of $76.0 million during the fourth quarter. The Company’s Board of Directors has authorized a $100.0 million increase in the Company’s share repurchase program.

 

    The Company completed the repatriation of an additional $40.7 million of foreign earnings, related to the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, for a total of $155.7 million of foreign earnings repatriated during the year.

 

For the fourth quarter of 2005, the Company reported net income under GAAP of $30.4 million compared to $23.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2004, an increase in net income of 27%. Pro forma net income rose 23% to $31.5 million from $25.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2004. GAAP results for the fourth quarter of 2005 include a one-time charge of $0.02 per fully diluted share to recognize the loss on debt extinguishment related to the previously disclosed refinancing of the Company’s senior credit facility, a $0.01 charge for non-cash stock-based compensation expense and a one-time tax benefit of $0.01 per fully diluted share related to a favorable tax ruling. Share repurchases contributed approximately $0.01 to fourth quarter 2005 fully diluted EPS.

 

For a complete discussion of pro forma adjustments, see the Supplemental Information included later in this press release.


Full-year 2005 Financial Summary

 

For the full year ended December 31, 2005, net sales totaled $836.7 million, 22% higher than net sales for the year ended December 31, 2004. Retail channel sales worldwide were strong, rising 31%. Reflecting the strong cash flow dynamics of the business, operating cash flows rose 33% to $102.2 million for the full year 2005, up from $77.0 million for 2004. The Company reported full year 2005 GAAP net income of $99.3 million, or $0.97 per diluted share, compared to $75.0 million, or $0.73 per diluted share, for 2004. This represents a 32% increase in GAAP net income and a 33% increase in GAAP net income per diluted share. The Company also reported full year 2005 pro forma net income of $109.0 million, or $1.07 per diluted share, compared to $84.4 million, or $0.82 per diluted share, for 2004. This represents a 29% increase in pro forma net income and a 30% increase in pro forma net income per diluted share.

 

Chief Executive Officer Robert B. Trussell, Jr. commented, “2005 was a solid year with continued growth in net sales and earnings. We were very pleased to deliver earnings per share at the high end of our expectations, even though sales were less than guidance. Our fourth quarter performance demonstrates Tempur-Pedic’s ability to generate strong earnings in the face of a more challenging sales environment, sharp increases in raw material prices in our industry and increased transportation costs.”

 

President H. Thomas Bryant noted, “In the fourth quarter, our specialty retail channel was weaker than expected for pillows and mattresses. Additionally, we opened or expanded distribution in several large U.S. accounts later in the quarter than we had originally expected, which impacted the level of sell-through. Lastly, while our international pillow business continues to recover, it was not at the levels we had anticipated for the quarter.

 

“We have undertaken several initiatives to accelerate U.S. sales growth and otherwise strengthen our business in 2006. We are expanding our retail sales force in both the U.S. and internationally. To continue building brand awareness, we are increasing our marketing investment around the world. In addition, we will selectively expand our distribution in retail accounts in the U.S., Europe and Asia.

 

“We are also focusing on our commitment to be the leader in innovation and new product development by increasing investment in R&D. Continuing our longstanding commitment to the premium market, next week at the Las Vegas furniture show we will launch two new high-end mattresses, ‘The GrandBed by Tempur-Pedic™’ and ‘The RhapsodyBed by Tempur-Pedic™’, whose queen-size mattresses will retail at $5,499 and $2,399, respectively. In addition, based on an analysis of our U.S. mattress sales and consumer feedback, we have redesigned the Classic model and will launch it next week. We expect this launch to support our effort to accelerate unit volume growth.

 

“During 2005 we successfully executed our strategy of delivering effective, low cost operations by implementing a number of initiatives to generate productivity improvements and cost reductions throughout our manufacturing and supply chain operations. These initiatives have already provided a significant benefit to our business and we will expand them in 2006.”

 

Expanded Share Repurchase Program and Amendment to Senior Credit Facility

 

In connection with the Company’s $80.0 million share repurchase program announced in October 2005, during the fourth quarter of 2005 the Company purchased more than 6.8 million shares of its common stock for a total cost of $76.0 million. Common shares outstanding at December 31, 2005 were 92.4 million, compared to 98.2 million at the end of 2004.

 

The Company also announced that the Board of Directors has increased the total amount of the Company’s share repurchase program by $100.0 million to $180.0 million. Stock repurchases under this program may be made through open market transactions, negotiated purchases or otherwise, at times and in such amounts as management and a committee of the Board deem appropriate. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors including price,


financing and regulatory requirements and other market conditions. Repurchases may also be made under a Rule 10b5-1 plan, which would permit shares to be repurchased when the Company might otherwise be precluded from doing so under insider trading laws. This share repurchase program may be limited, suspended or terminated at any time without prior notice.

 

In connection with the expansion of the share repurchase program, the Company intends to amend its existing senior credit facility and has received commitments from its lenders to increase the U.S. revolver component. The Company expects that this amendment will be completed in the next week.

 

Mr. Trussell commented: “We are very confident in the Company’s future, our superior products and our ability to remain the market leader in the visco-elastic category. We believe the share repurchase program is an attractive vehicle to significantly increase shareholder value over the long term, particularly in light of the strong cash flow generated by the Company’s business model.”

 

2006 Guidance

 

The Company issued full-year 2006 guidance for net sales and pro forma diluted net income per share. It currently expects net sales for 2006 to range from $940.0 million to $970.0 million, an increase of 12% to 16% over 2005. It currently expects pro forma diluted earnings per share for 2006 to range from $1.20 to $1.25, which excludes a full year GAAP charge of approximately $0.02 for stock option expense. This guidance reflects an increase of 12% to 17% compared to 2005 pro forma earnings per share of $1.07. The Company’s earnings guidance reflects the Company’s traditional practice of incurring heavier marketing expenditures as a percentage of sales in the first quarter of each year. The Company notes that its guidance for diluted earnings per share does not assume any benefit from a potential reduction in shares outstanding related to future share repurchases. The Company expects full year capital expenditures to be approximately $35.0 million, which includes $15.0 million related to its Albuquerque, New Mexico production facility. The Company also notes that its expectations are based on information available at the time of this release, and are subject to changing conditions, many of which are outside the Company’s control.

Supplemental Information

 

Pro Forma Net Income and Other Financial Data

 

To further provide investors useful information, pro forma net income is presented and represents the Company’s GAAP net income before income tax expense on repatriation of foreign dividend, income tax benefit from a favorable state tax ruling, non-cash stock-based compensation expense, and loss on debt extinguishment for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2005.

 

The Company believes that excluding the above items provide a measure that is more representative of ongoing costs and therefore more comparable to the Company’s historical operations. The following is a reconciliation of GAAP net income to pro forma net income and per share amounts:
