TEMPUR-PEDIC REPORTS RECORD THIRD QUARTER 2011 SALES AND EARNINGS
Reports Sales Up 30%
EPS Up 45% at $0.90
Raises Financial Guidance for 2011
Increases Share Repurchase Authorization

LEXINGTON, KY, October 20, 2011Tempur-Pedic International Inc. (NYSE: TPX), the leading manufacturer, marketer and distributor of premium mattresses and pillows worldwide, today announced financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2011. The Company also increased full year 2011 financial guidance and announced an increase to its existing share repurchase authorization.

Financial Summary
    Earnings per diluted share (EPS) increased 45% to $0.90 in the third quarter of 2011 as compared to $0.62 in the third quarter of 2010. The Company reported net income of $61.9 million in the third quarter of 2011 as compared to $44.2 million in the third quarter of 2010.
     
    Net sales increased 30% to $383.1 million in the third quarter of 2011 from $295.8 million in the third quarter of 2010. On a constant currency basis, net sales increased 26%. Net sales in the North American segment increased 30%, while International segment net sales increased 28%. On a constant currency basis, International segment net sales increased 15%.
     
    Mattress sales increased 28% globally. Mattress sales increased 28% in the North American segment and 31% in the International segment. On a constant currency basis, International mattress sales increased 18%. Pillow sales increased 12% globally. Pillow sales increased 5% in North America and 21% in the International segment. On a constant currency basis, International pillow sales increased 9%.
     
    Gross profit margin was 52.4% as compared to 51.0% in the third quarter of 2010. The gross profit margin increased as a result of improved efficiencies in manufacturing, favorable mix and fixed cost leverage related to higher production volumes, partially offset by commodity costs and new product introductions.
     
    Operating profit margin was 25.2% as compared to 23.0% in the third quarter of 2010. The increase was driven by improved gross profit margin and operating expense leverage, partially offset by increased marketing investments.
     
    The Company generated $75.0 million of operating cash flow in the third quarter of 2011 as compared to $71.9 million in the third quarter of 2010. In addition, the Company increased its cash balance by $16.3 million to $103.0 million in the third quarter.
 
Chief Executive Officer Mark Sarvary commented, “We are pleased with our third quarter results globally. Our strategic investments in brand awareness and new products continue to deliver growth. We remain confident of the potential to grow sales and earnings over the long term.”
 
Chief Financial Officer Dale Williams commented, “We are pleased with our sales and earnings in the quarter, and our continued improvement in margins. However, gross margins declined sequentially this quarter primarily related to a transitory productivity issue at our Danish manufacturing facility.”

Share Repurchase Program
During the third quarter of 2011, the Company purchased 1.34 million shares of its common stock for a total cost of $80.0 million. During the first three quarters of 2011, the Company purchased 4.25 million shares of its common stock for a total cost of $240.0 million.

The Company announced the Board of Directors has expanded the Company’s existing repurchase program by $80.0 million for a total authorization of up to $280.0 million. Reflecting share repurchases made during the third quarter, the Company currently has $200.0 million remaining under this authorization. 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.

Updated Financial Guidance
The Company updated financial guidance for the full year 2011. The Company currently expects net sales for 2011 to range from $1.405 billion to $1.425 billion and EPS for 2011 to range from $3.12 to $3.17 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 further reduction in shares outstanding related to its share repurchase program.

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

The Company provides information regarding Earnings Before Interest Taxes Depreciation and Amortization (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. A reconciliation of EBITDA to the Company’s Net income and a reconciliation of Total debt to Funded debt are provided below. Management believes that the use of EBITDA and Funded debt provides investors with useful information with respect to the terms of the Company’s credit facility.
