Company Chairman and CEO Scott Thompson commented, "We are pleased with our performance in the third quarter. Our global market outperformance, led by double-digit growth in our international segment, resulted in consolidated sales growth year-over-year despite the global bedding industry continuing to perform significantly below historical trends. Sales growth coupled with our operational efficiency initiatives and diverse business platform resulted in solid growth in both adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS. We continue to see our investments in product, people, and advertising as foundational to our long-term success."

Business Segment Highlights

The Company's business segments include North America and International. Corporate operating expenses are not included in either of the business segments and are presented separately as a reconciling item to consolidated results.

North America net sales decreased 0.8% to $1,015.3 million as compared to $1,023.7 million in the third quarter of 2023, primarily driven by continued macroeconomic pressures impacting U.S. consumer behavior. Net sales through the wholesale channel decreased $6.7 million, or 0.8%, to $878.4 million as compared to the third quarter of 2023. Net sales through the direct channel decreased $1.7 million, or 1.2%, to $136.9 million as compared to the third quarter of 2023.

North America gross margin was 42.0%, consistent with the third quarter of 2023. Adjusted gross margin⁽¹⁾declined 10 basis points to 43.1% as compared to 43.2% in the third quarter of 2023. The decline was primarily driven by the mix impact of the new distribution win for our OEM business, partially offset by favorable commodity costs and operational efficiencies.

North America operating margin was 19.0% as compared to 19.1% in the third quarter of 2023. Adjusted operating margin⁽¹⁾declined 20 basis points to 20.1% as compared to 20.3% in the third quarter of 2023. The decline was primarily driven by the decline in gross margin and operating expense deleverage.

International net sales increased 12.4% to $284.7 million as compared to $253.4 million in the third quarter of 2023, primarily driven by the success of new product launches. On a constant currency basis⁽¹⁾, International net sales increased 10.5% as compared to the third quarter of 2023. Net sales through the wholesale channel increased $13.9 million, or 15.5%, to $103.4 million as compared to the third quarter of 2023. Net sales through the direct channel increased $17.4 million, or 10.6%, to $181.3 million as compared to the third quarter of 2023.

International gross margin improved 70 basis points to 57.3% as compared to 56.6% in the third quarter of 2023. The improvement was primarily driven by operational efficiencies.

International operating margin was 18.2% as compared to 15.8% in the third quarter of 2023. Operating margin improved 200 basis points as compared to adjusted operating margin⁽¹⁾ of 16.2% in the third quarter of 2023. There were no adjustments to operating margin in the third quarter of 2024. The improvement was primarily driven by operating expense leverage and the improvement in gross margin, partially offset by Asia joint venture performance.

Corporate operating expense decreased to $43.2 million as compared to $52.3 million in the third quarter of 2023. Adjusted operating expense⁽¹⁾ was $32.0 million as compared to $34.2 million in the third quarter of 2023, primarily driven by reduced variable compensation expense.

Consolidated net income increased 14.7% to $130.0 million as compared to $113.3 million in the third quarter of 2023. Adjusted net income⁽¹⁾increased 7.1% to $146.5 million as compared to $136.8 million in the third quarter of 2023. EPS increased 14.1% to $0.73 as compared to $0.64 in the third quarter of 2023. Adjusted EPS⁽¹⁾ increased 6.5% to $0.82 as compared to $0.77 in the third quarter of 2023.

The Company ended the third quarter of 2024 with total debt of $2.3 billion and consolidated indebtedness less netted cash⁽¹⁾of $2.2 billion. Leverage based on the ratio of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash⁽¹⁾ to adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ was 2.41 times for the trailing twelve months ended September 30, 2024.

Financial Guidance

For the full year 2024, the Company narrowed its expectations for an adjusted EPS⁽¹⁾ range of $2.45 to $2.55, which represents a 4% increase in adjusted EPS⁽¹⁾ from the prior year at the midpoint. This contemplates the Company's current outlook that 2024 sales will be slightly below the prior year.

The Company noted that its expectations are based on information available at the time of this release, and are subject to changing conditions and risks, many of which are outside the Company's control. The Company is unable to reconcile forward–looking adjusted EPS, a non–GAAP financial measure, to EPS, its most directly comparable forward–looking GAAP financial measure, without unreasonable efforts, because the Company is currently unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the type and extent of certain items that would be expected to impact EPS in 2024.

Dividend Declared

The Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.13 per share, payable on December 5, 2024, to shareholders of record at the close of business on November 21, 2024.

TEMPUR SEALY INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
(in millions, except percentages, ratios and per common share amounts)

The Company provides information regarding adjusted net income, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EPS, adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted operating income (expense), adjusted operating margin, consolidated indebtedness and consolidated indebtedness less netted cash, which are not recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be alternatives to net income, earnings per share, gross profit, gross margin, operating income (expense) and operating margin as a measure of operating performance, or an alternative to total debt as a measure of liquidity. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with performance measures that better reflect the Company's underlying operations and trends, providing a perspective not immediately apparent from net income, gross profit, gross margin, operating income (expense) and operating margin. The adjustments management makes to derive the non-GAAP financial measures include adjustments to exclude items that may cause short-term fluctuations in the nearest GAAP financial measure, but which management does not consider to be the fundamental attributes or primary drivers of the Company's business.

The Company believes that exclusion of these items assists in providing a more complete understanding of the Company's underlying results from operations and trends, and management uses these measures along with the corresponding GAAP financial measures to manage the Company's business, to evaluate its consolidated and business segment performance compared to prior periods and the marketplace, to establish operational goals and to provide continuity to investors for comparability purposes. Limitations associated with the use of these non-GAAP financial measures include that these measures do not present all of the amounts associated with the Company's results as determined in accordance with GAAP. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental in nature and should not be construed as more significant than comparable financial measures defined by GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, these presentations may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. For more information about these non-GAAP financial measures and a reconciliation to the nearest GAAP financial measure, please refer to the reconciliations on the following pages.

Constant Currency Information

In this press release the Company refers to, and in other press releases and other communications with investors the Company may refer to, net sales, earnings or other historical financial information on a "constant currency basis", which is a non-GAAP financial measure. These references to constant currency basis do not include operational impacts that could result from fluctuations in foreign currency rates. To provide information on a constant currency basis, the applicable financial results are adjusted based on a simple mathematical model that translates current period results in local currency using the comparable prior corresponding period's currency conversion rate. This approach is used for countries where the functional currency is the local country currency. This information is provided so that certain financial results can be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency rates, thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons of business performance.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS

A reconciliation of reported net income to adjusted net income and the calculation of adjusted EPS 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 adjustments as described in the footnotes at the end of this release.

The following table sets forth the reconciliation of the Company's reported net income to adjusted net income and the calculation of adjusted EPS for the three months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023:

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Consolidated Indebtedness less Netted Cash

The following reconciliations are provided below:

Net income to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA

Management believes that presenting these non-GAAP measures provides investors with useful information with respect to the Company's operating performance, cash flow generation and comparisons from period to period, as well as general information about the Company's leverage.

The Company's credit agreement (the "2023 Credit Agreement") provides the definition of adjusted EBITDA. Accordingly, the Company presents adjusted EBITDA to provide information regarding the Company's compliance with requirements under the 2023 Credit Agreement.
