TEMPUR-PEDIC REPORTS FIRST QUARTER 2013 RESULTS

 – Reports First Quarter GAAP EPS of $0.20; Adjusted EPS of $0.62
– Issues Updated 2013 Financial Guidance Incorporating Sealy
 
LEXINGTON, KY, May 2, 2013Tempur-Pedic International Inc. (NYSE: TPX), the world’s largest bedding provider, today announced financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2013. The Company also issued updated 2013 financial guidance that incorporates recently acquired Sealy Corporation (“Sealy”).
  
On March 18, 2013, the Company completed its previously announced merger with Sealy. The Company’s 2013 first quarter financials include Sealy’s operations for the period March 18, 2013 through March 31, 2013 (the “stub period”).

FIRST QUARTER FINANCIAL SUMMARY
 
 
  Earnings per diluted share (EPS) under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the first quarter of 2013 were $0.20, and reflect transaction and integration costs related to the recently completed Sealy acquisition as well as certain discrete tax items. Adjusted EPS were $0.62 in the first quarter of 2013 as compared to GAAP EPS of $0.86 in the first quarter of 2012.
    GAAP net income in the first quarter of 2013 was $12.5 million. The Company reported adjusted net income of $38.2 million for the first quarter of 2013 as compared to GAAP net income of $56.2 million in the first 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 1.5% to $390.1 million in the first quarter of 2013 from $384.4 million in the first quarter of 2012. The net sales increase was due to the inclusion of $46.7 million of Sealy sales for the stub period.  Excluding Sealy, Tempur-Pedic net sales decreased 10.7% to $343.4 million.
     Gross profit margin was 48.3%. Excluding Sealy, Tempur-Pedic gross profit margin decreased to 51.7% as compared to 53.6% in the first quarter of 2012. The Tempur-Pedic gross profit margin decreased primarily as a result of product mix, deleverage, and increased promotions and discounts, offset partially by lower commodity costs and geographic mix.
     Operating income was $44.3 million, or 11.4% of net sales. Operating income included $16.0 million of transaction and integration costs related to the Sealy acquisition. Excluding Sealy, Tempur-Pedic operating income was $47.2 million as compared to $86.1 million in the first quarter of 2012. The lower Tempur-Pedic operating income reflects the reduced gross margin and deleverage of certain operating expenses related to lower sales.
     Adjusted EBITDA for the first quarter of 2013 was $76.8 million as compared to $98.7 million in the first quarter of 2012.
     The Company ended the quarter with consolidated funded debt of $2.0 billion. The ratio of consolidated funded debt less qualified cash to adjusted EBITDA was 4.4 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 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-Pedic International CEO Mark Sarvary commented, “We are pleased to have completed the acquisition of Sealy in March. The integration is progressing smoothly and as planned.  We remain confident in realizing cost synergies in excess of $40 million by the third full year and continue to be very excited about the significant opportunity for revenue synergies. Our performance during the first quarter was in line with our projections and we expect positive net sales growth for the balance of the year.”
 
 
 

 
Business Segment Highlights
The Company has updated its reporting segment data to reflect the Sealy acquisition. Segments now include Tempur North America, Tempur International, and Sealy. In addition, the Company will now provide product level sales for “Bedding” and “Other products”. “Bedding” includes mattresses, foundations, and adjustable foundations and “Other products” include pillows and various other comfort products and components. Further, the Company will now provide channel level sales for “Retail”, “Direct” and “Other”. “Retail” and “Direct” are unchanged from the Company’s prior classification and “Other” now includes third party, health care and hospitality. Historical financial data for Tempur-Pedic showing net sales by these new product and channel categories in the Tempur-Pedic segments has been posted to the “Quarterly Results” section of the Company’s Investor Relations website at http://investor.tempurpedic.com.

Tempur North America net sales decreased 16.0% to $225.9 million in the first quarter of 2013 from $269.0 million in the first quarter of 2012. Bedding net sales decreased 16.3% to $204.6 million from $244.5 million in the first quarter of 2012. Net sales of Other products decreased 13.1% to $21.3 million from $24.5 million in the first quarter of 2012.

Tempur International net sales increased 1.8% to $117.5 million in the first quarter of 2013 from $115.4 million in the first quarter of 2012. Bedding net sales of $89.3 million in the first quarter of 2013 were unchanged from $89.2 million in the first quarter of 2012. Net sales of Other products increased 7.6% to $28.2 million from $26.2 million in the first quarter of 2012.
 
Sealy net sales for the stub period from March 18, 2013 to March 31, 2013 were $46.7 million.

Charges and Other Costs
The Company incurred various charges as a result of the Sealy acquisition. Transaction costs recorded in the first quarter of 2013 were $11.8 million and integration costs were $4.2 million. In addition, the Company incurred Sealy transaction-related interest and fees of $19.9 million, including interest on the Company’s new 6.875% Senior Notes due 2020 for the period prior to the March 18, 2013 closing of the Sealy acquisition, commitments associated with financing for the closing of the Sealy acquisition, ticking fees and write off of deferred financing costs associated with the Company’s previous credit facility.

Capital Structure
With the closing of the Sealy acquisition, the Company’s senior secured credit facility, consisting of its Term A, Term B and revolving credit facility, and Senior Notes were funded. In addition, with respect to Sealy’s 8% Senior Secured Third Lien Convertible Notes due 2016, $96.2 million remained outstanding as of March 31, 2013, which represents the fair value of the notes. As a result, the Company now has consolidated funded debt of $2.0 billion.
 
 
Financial Guidance
The Company issued updated 2013 financial guidance that incorporates the recently acquired Sealy business.

The following guidance commentary reflects a full year of Tempur-Pedic results and Sealy results from March 18, 2013:
 
 
 

 
 
 
  Net sales to be approximately $2.5 billion
 ●   Adjusted EBITDA to be approximately $435 million
 ●   Adjusted EPS to be approximately $2.75, including purchase price allocation (“PPA”) intangible depreciation and amortization of approximately $0.21 per 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 adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS guidance does not include transaction and integration costs related to the Sealy acquisition.
 
Sealy Fiscal First Quarter 2013 Results
Given that the Company’s first quarter results reflect Sealy results only for the Sealy stub period, the Company has included the following commentary on Sealy’s fiscal first quarter ending March 3, 2013 in order to provide a sense of how the legacy Sealy business performed. The following Sealy results reflect its historical basis of accounting and should not be considered an indicator of future performance.
 
 
  For the quarter ended March 3, 2013, Sealy’s net sales increased 8.8% to $339.6 million from $312.3 million in the quarter ended February 26, 2012.
 ●  
Sealy’s operating income was $10.8 million as compared with $25.9 million in the prior year period and included charges and other costs of $9.2 million related to the transaction with Tempur-Pedic and other restructuring costs.

Forward-looking Statements
This release contains "forward-looking statements,” within the meaning of federal securities laws, which include information concerning one or more of the Company's plans, objectives, goals, strategies, and other information that is not historical information. When used in this release, the words "estimates," "expects," "anticipates," "projects," "plans," “proposed,” "intends," "believes," 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 integration, cost synergies, revenue synergies and positive growth, and expectations regarding the Company’s net sales, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS for 2013 and related assumptions. All forward looking statements are based upon current expectations and beliefs and various assumptions. There can be no assurance that the Company will realize these expectations 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 those expressed as forward-looking statements. These risk factors include risks associated with the Company’s new capital structure and increased debt level; the ability to successfully integrate Sealy into Tempur-Pedic’s operations and realize cost and revenue synergies and other benefits from the transaction; general economic, financial and industry conditions, particularly in the retail sector, as well as consumer confidence and the availability of consumer financing; changes in interest rates; uncertainties arising from global events; the effects of changes in foreign exchange rates on the Company’s reported earnings; consumer acceptance of the Company’s products; industry competition; the efficiency and effectiveness of the Company’s advertising campaigns and other marketing programs; the Company’s ability to increase sales productivity within existing retail accounts and to further penetrate the Company’s retail channel, including the timing of opening or expanding within large retail accounts; the Company’s ability to expand brand awareness, distribution and new products; the Company’s ability to continuously improve and expand its product line, maintain efficient, timely and cost-effective production and delivery of its products, and manage its growth; the effects of strategic investments on the Company’s  operations; changes in foreign tax rates and changes in tax laws generally, including the ability to utilize tax loss carry forwards; the outcome of various pending tax audits or other tax proceedings; changing commodity costs; the risk that the Company’s final  purchase price allocation relating to the Sealy acquisition could be significantly different from the Company’s initial estimated purchase price allocation; and the effect of future legislative or regulatory changes.

Additional information concerning these and other risks and uncertainties are discussed in the Company's filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including without limitation the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K under the headings "Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" and "Risk Factors."

TEMPUR-PEDIC 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, 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 adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share are 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 acquisition of Sealy. A reconciliation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to the Company’s net income and a reconciliation of total debt to consolidated funded debt are also provided below. Management believes that the use of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and funded debt also provides investors with useful information with respect to the terms of the Company’s new debt agreements 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.

Reconciliation of net income to adjusted net income

The following table sets forth the reconciliation of the Company’s reported GAAP net income for the three months ended March 31, 2013 to the calculation of adjusted net income for the three months ended March 31, 2013:
