Throughout 2010 we have grown sales and profit while improving our competitive position - strengthening our product line, improving the effectiveness of our marketing and increasing our margins. We continue to project considerable potential for growth for Tempur-Pedic over the coming years, and over the coming quarters we will invest to capitalize on this opportunity.”
 
 

 
Share Repurchase Program
During the third quarter of 2010, the Company purchased 1.8 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $27.57 for a total cost of $50.0 million. During the first three quarters of 2010, the Company purchased 8.5 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $29.41 for a total cost of $250.0 million.

The Company announced that the Board of Directors had expanded the Company’s existing share repurchase program by $50.0 million for a total authorization of up to $150.0 million. Reflecting share repurchases made during the third quarter, the Company currently has $100.0 million remaining under this authorization. Stock repurchases 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. The share repurchase program may be limited, suspended or terminated at any time without prior notice.

Financial Guidance
The Company increased its full year 2010 guidance for net sales and earnings per share. It currently expects net sales for 2010 to range from $1.095 billion to $1.115 billion. It currently expects EPS for 2010 to range from $2.05 to $2.10 per diluted share. The Company noted 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. The Company noted its EPS guidance does not assume any benefit from a potential additional reduction in shares outstanding related to its repurchase authorization.

Summary of Channel Sales
The Company generates sales through four distribution channels: retail, direct, healthcare and third party.  The retail channel sells to furniture, specialty and department stores globally.  The direct channel sells directly to consumers.  The healthcare channel sells to hospitals, nursing homes, healthcare professionals and medical retailers.  The third party channel sells to distributors in countries where Tempur-Pedic International does not operate its own distribution company.

On April 1, 2010, the Company purchased its third party distributor in Canada. Accordingly, net sales in the Canadian market are reported in the appropriate channels within the North American segment. As Canada represented essentially all sales through the North American third party channel, the Company no longer reports third party sales in this segment.

Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to Net Income and Funded debt to Total debt
Non-GAAP Measures
(In thousands)

The Company provides information regarding Adjusted EBITDA and Funded debt which are not recognized terms under U.S. GAAP (Generally Accepted Accounting Principles) and do not purport to be alternatives to Net income as a measure of operating performance or Total debt.

Management believes that the use of Adjusted EBITDA and Funded debt provides investors with useful information with respect to the terms of the Company’s credit facility.

The following table sets forth the reconciliation of the Company’s reported Net income to the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA for each of the three months ended December 31, 2009, March 31, 2010, June 30, 2010 and September 30, 2010, as well as the twelve months ended September 30, 2010:
