Business Overview
General
We are committed to improving the sleep of more people, every night, all around the world. As a leading designer, manufacturer, distributor and retailer of bedding products worldwide, we know how crucial a good night of sleep is to overall health and wellness. Utilizing over a century of knowledge and industry-leading innovation, we deliver award-winning products that provide breakthrough sleep solutions to consumers in over 100 countries.
We operate in two segments:North America and International. These segments are strategic business units that are managed separately based on geography. OurNorth America segment consists of manufacturing and distribution subsidiaries, joint ventures and licensees located in theU.S. ,Canada andMexico . Our International segment consists of manufacturing and distribution subsidiaries, joint ventures and licensees located inEurope ,Asia-Pacific andLatin America (other thanMexico ). OnAugust 2, 2021 , we acquiredDreams Topco Limited and its direct and indirect subsidiaries ("Dreams"). Dreams is also included in the International segment. Corporate operating expenses are not included in either of the segments and are presented separately as a reconciling item to consolidated results. We evaluate segment performance based on net sales, gross profit and operating income. For additional information refer to Note 12, "Business Segment Information," included in Part II, ITEM 1 of this Report. Our highly recognized brands include Tempur-Pedic®, Sealy® and Stearns & Foster® and our non-branded offerings consist of value-focused private label and OEM products. Our products allow for complementary merchandising strategies and are sold through third-party retailers, our more than 650 company-owned and joint venture operated retail stores worldwide and our e-commerce channel. Our distribution model operates through an omni-channel strategy. We distribute through two channels in each operating business segment: Wholesale and Direct. Our Wholesale channel consists of third-party retailers, including third-party distribution, hospitality and healthcare. Our Direct channel includes company-owned stores, online and call centers.
General Business and Economic Conditions
We believe the bedding industry is structured for sustained growth, driven by
product innovation, sleep technology advancements, consumer confidence, housing
formations and population growth. The industry is no longer engaged in
uneconomical retail store expansion, startups have shifted from uneconomical
strategies to becoming profitable and legacy retailers and manufacturers have
become skilled in producing profitable online sales.
Over the last decade, consumers have made the connection between a good night's
sleep and overall health and wellness. In recent years, this trend accelerated
during the COVID-19 global pandemic. As consumers make this connection they are
willing to invest more in their bedding purchases, which positions us well for
long-term growth.

In the near term, there are various macro-economic factors impacting the business. While we do not have any operations inUkraine orRussia , the war inUkraine has affected both international and domestic markets. Internationally, the war has introduced elements of risk into the supply chain and is affecting consumer confidence inEurope . Also,U.S. consumer confidence has declined due to inflation and geopolitical uncertainty. While we have taken actions that have largely mitigated our broader supply chain risk, declining consumer confidence is negatively impacting our order trends, which we expect to continue. The COVID-19 global pandemic continues to impact our global operations as variants appear in the markets in which we operate. The recent variant inChina and the resulting government mandated lockdowns are negatively impacting our wholly-owned and joint-venture operations in the region. Our recent actions to expand capacity, diversify our supplier base, increase our safety stock and improve vendor and customer communications have strengthened our supply chain, putting us in a more favorable position to meet consumer demand. Though geopolitical and pandemic-related disruptions continue to create challenges, the many actions we have taken to further insulate our supply chain have largely mitigated their impact. During the first quarter of 2022, commodity costs unfavorably impacted our gross margin and we implemented pricing actions to mitigate the dollar impact of these known commodity headwinds. We now anticipate additional commodity cost inflation for the remainder of 2022 and expect to implement another round of pricing actions that will neutralize the effect of the incremental inflation on a full year basis. Product Launches In 2022, we plan to complete the rollout of a complete refresh of our North American Sealy portfolio that began in 2021. The updated Sealy portfolio features new models in our Posturepedic PlusTM, Posturepedic® and Essentials product lines. We also expect to launch a complete refresh of our North American Stearns & Foster portfolio in 2022. In theU.S. , we plan to launch a Sealy-branded, eco-friendly mattress collection, as well as a Sealy mattress with a best-in-class pressure-relieving gel grid layer at a consumer-appealing, mid-market price point, in 2022. In our International segment, we expect to launch an all-new line of Tempur® products inEurope andAsia-Pacific with the objective of reaching a new segment of international consumers. This new line of products will broaden Tempur®'s price range with the super-premium average selling price ceiling maintained and the floor expanded into the premium category. In response to the current geopolitical uncertainty permeating the European market, we have elected to postpone the launch of the new international line of Tempur® products that was planned for 2022 to the first quarter of 2023.
Our global 2022 marketing plan is to aggressively support our innovative bedding products through investing significant marketing dollars to promote our worldwide brands and product launches.
Acquisition of Dreams
OnAugust 2, 2021 , we completed the acquisition of Dreams, for a cash purchase price of$476.7 million , which included$49.5 million of cash acquired. The transaction was funded using cash on hand and bank financing. As a multi-branded retailer, Dreams sells a variety of products across a range of price points with a margin profile lower than our historical International segment margins. 20 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Table of Contents Results of Operations

For a discussion and reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures as discussed above to the corresponding GAAP financial results, refer to the non-GAAP financial information set forth below under the heading "Non-GAAP Financial Information."
We may refer to net sales or 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. Constant currency information is not recognized under
GAAP, and it is not intended as an alternative to GAAP measures. Refer to Part
I, ITEM 3 of this Report for a discussion of our foreign currency exchange rate
risk.

Total net sales $ 1,239.5 $ 1,043.8 $ 931.4 $ 883.3 $ 308.1 $ 160.5 Net sales increased 18.7%, and on a constant currency basis increased 19.8%. The change in net sales was driven by the following:
•North America net sales increased$48.1 million , or 5.4%. On a constant currency basis,North America net sales increased 5.5%. Net sales in the Wholesale channel increased$45.8 million , or 6.0%, to$811.3 million , as compared to first quarter of 2021. Net sales in the Direct channel increased$2.3 million , or 2.0% to$120.1 million , as compared to the first quarter of 2021. •International net sales increased$147.6 million , or 92.0%. On a constant currency basis, International net sales increased 98.6%. Net sales in the Wholesale channel increased 3.7% on a constant currency basis. Net sales in the Direct channel increased 345.3% on a constant currency basis, primarily driven by the acquisition of Dreams inAugust 2021 . GROSS PROFIT Three Months Ended March 31, 2022 2021 (in millions, except percentages) Gross Profit Gross Margin Gross Profit Gross Margin Margin Change North America$ 352.4 37.8 %$ 363.9 41.2 % (3.4) % International 170.4 55.3 % 95.0 59.2 % (3.9) % Consolidated gross margin$ 522.8 42.2 %$ 458.9 44.0 % (1.8) % Costs associated with net sales are recorded in cost of sales and include the costs of producing, shipping, warehousing, receiving and inspecting goods during the period, as well as depreciation and amortization of long-lived assets used in the manufacturing process.
Our gross margin is primarily impacted by the relative amount of net sales
contributed by our premium or value products. Our value products have a
significantly lower gross margin than our premium products. If sales of our
value priced products increase relative to sales of our premium priced products,
our gross margins will be negatively impacted in both our
Our gross margin is also impacted by fixed cost leverage based on manufacturing unit volumes; the cost of raw materials; operational efficiencies due to the utilization in our manufacturing facilities; product, brand, channel and country mix; foreign exchange fluctuations; volume incentives offered to certain retail accounts; participation in our retail cooperative advertising programs; and costs associated with new product introductions. Future changes in raw material prices could have a significant impact on our gross margin. Our margins are also impacted by the growth in our Wholesale channel as sales in our Wholesale channel are at wholesale prices whereas sales in our Direct channel are at retail prices.
Gross margin declined 180 basis points. The primary drivers of changes in gross margin by segment are discussed below:
•North America gross margin declined 340 basis points. The decline in gross
margin was driven by price increases to customers without a margin benefit of
280 basis points and operational inefficiencies related to supply chain
constraints of 120 basis points. Our gross margin was impacted as sales
increased with no change in gross profit dollars, as our pricing actions have
been neutralizing the dollar impact of commodities. These declines were
partially offset by favorable mix.
•International gross margin declined 390 basis points. The decline in gross
margin was primarily driven by the acquisition of Dreams of 200 basis points and
price increases to customers without a margin benefit of 160 basis points.
Dreams' margin profile is lower than our historical international margins as
they sell a variety of products across a range of price points.
OPERATING EXPENSES
Selling and marketing expenses include advertising and media production
associated with the promotion of our brands, other marketing materials such as
catalogs, brochures, videos, product samples, direct customer mailings and point
of purchase materials and sales force compensation. We also include in selling
and marketing expense certain new product development costs, including market
research and new product testing.
General, administrative and other expenses include salaries and related expenses, information technology, professional fees, depreciation and amortization of long-lived assets not used in the manufacturing process, expenses for administrative functions and research and development costs.

Liquidity
Our principal sources of funds are cash flows from operations, supplemented with borrowings in the capital markets and made pursuant to our credit facilities and cash and cash equivalents on hand. Principal uses of funds consist of payments of principal and interest on our debt facilities, share repurchases, acquisitions, payments of dividends to our shareholders, capital expenditures and working capital needs. As ofMarch 31, 2022 , we had net working capital of$117.7 million , including cash and cash equivalents of$116.3 million , as compared to a working capital of$222.2 million , including cash and cash equivalents of$300.7 million , as ofDecember 31, 2021 . AtMarch 31, 2022 , total cash and cash equivalents were$116.3 million , of which$29.9 million was held in theU.S. and$86.4 million was held by subsidiaries outside of theU.S. The amount of cash and cash equivalents held by subsidiaries outside of theU.S. and not readily convertible into theU.S. Dollar or other major foreign currencies is not material to our overall liquidity or financial position.
Cash Provided by (Used in) Continuing Operations
The table below presents net cash provided by (used in) operating, investing and
financing activities from continuing operations for the periods indicated below:
Three Months Ended March 31,
(in millions) 2022 2021
Net cash provided by (used in) continuing operations:
Operating activities $ 85.6 $ 86.3
Investing activities (59.3) (24.4)
Financing activities (204.8) 168.9
Cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations decreased $0.7
million in the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the same period
in 2021. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities was driven by
operational performance in the period.
Cash used in investing activities from continuing operations increased $34.9
million in the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the same period
in 2021. The increase in cash used in investing activities was due to increased
capital expenditures related to our manufacturing capacity expansion projects.
Cash used in financing activities from continuing operations increased $373.7
million in the three months ended March 31, 2022 as compared to the same period
in 2021. For the three months ended March 31, 2022 , we had net borrowings of
$312.1 million on our credit facilities as compared to net borrowings of $504.8
million , which included proceeds of $800.0 million from the issuance of our 2029
Senior Notes partially offset by net repayments under our credit facilities and
2023 Senior Notes in 2021. During the three months ended March 31, 2022 and
2021, we repurchased $494.8 million and $313.1 million , respectively, of our
common stock.
Cash Used in Discontinued Operations
Net cash used in operating, investing and financing activities from discontinued
operations for the periods ended
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures totaled$60.3 million and$23.5 million for the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. We currently expect our 2022 capital expenditures to be approximately$250 million to$280 million , which includes manufacturing capacity expansion and investments in our other growth initiatives. Indebtedness Our total debt increased to$2,674.7 million as ofMarch 31, 2022 from$2,353.2 million as ofDecember 31, 2021 . Total availability under our revolving senior secured credit facility was$561.0 million as ofMarch 31, 2022 , which matures in 2024. Refer to Note 5, "Debt" in the "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements," under Part I, ITEM 1 for further discussion of our debt. As ofMarch 31, 2022 , our ratio of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash to adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, in accordance with our 2019 Credit Agreement was 2.25 times. This ratio is within the terms of the financial covenants for the maximum consolidated total net leverage ratio as set forth in the 2019 Credit Agreement, which limits this ratio to 5.00 times. As ofMarch 31, 2022 , we were in compliance with all of the financial covenants in our debt agreements, and we do not anticipate material issues under any debt agreements based on current facts and circumstances. Our debt agreements contain certain covenants that limit restricted payments, including share repurchases and dividends. The 2019 Credit Agreement, 2029 Senior Notes and 2031 Senior Notes contain similar limitations which, subject to other conditions, allow unlimited restricted payments at times when the ratio of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash to adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, remains below 3.50 times. In addition, these agreements permit limited restricted payments under certain conditions when the ratio of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash to adjusted EBITDA is above 3.50 times. The limit on restricted payments under the 2019 Credit Agreement, 2029 Senior Notes and 2031 Senior Notes is in part determined by a basket that grows at 50% of adjusted net income each quarter, reduced by restricted payments that are not otherwise permitted. For additional information, refer to "Non-GAAP Financial Information" below for the calculation of the ratio of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash to adjusted EBITDA calculated in accordance with the 2019 Credit Agreement. Both consolidated indebtedness and adjusted EBITDA as used in discussion of the 2019 Credit Agreement are non-GAAP financial measures and do not purport to be alternatives to net income as a measure of operating performance or total debt.
Share Repurchase Program
Our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program in 2016 pursuant to which we were authorized to repurchase shares of our common stock. During the three months endedMarch 31, 2022 , we repurchased 12.2 million shares under our share repurchase program for$449.2 million . As ofMarch 31, 2022 , we had$951.5 million remaining under our share repurchase authorization. Share repurchases under this program may be made through open market transactions, negotiated purchases or otherwise, at times and in such amounts as management deems appropriate. These repurchases may be funded by operating cash flows and/or borrowings under our debt arrangements. 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. The program is subject to certain limitations under our debt agreements. The program does not require the purchase of any minimum number of shares and may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time without prior notice. Repurchases may be made under a Rule 10b5-1 plan, which would permit shares to be repurchased when we might otherwise be precluded from doing so under federal securities laws. We will manage our share repurchase program based on current and expected cash flows, share price and alternative investment opportunities. For a complete description of our share repurchase program, please refer to ITEM 5 under Part II, "Market for Registrant's Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases ofEquity Securities ," in the 2021 Annual Report. Please also refer to "Issuer Purchases ofEquity Securities " in ITEM 2(c) of Part II of this Report. Future Liquidity Sources and Uses As ofMarch 31, 2022 , we had$677.3 million of liquidity, including$116.3 million of cash on hand and$561.0 million available under our revolving senior secured credit facility. In addition, we expect to generate cash flow from operations in the full year 2022. We believe that cash flow from operations, availability under our existing credit facilities and arrangements, current cash balances and the ability to obtain other financing, if necessary, will provide adequate cash funds for our foreseeable working capital needs, necessary capital expenditures and debt service obligations. Our capital allocation strategy follows a balanced approach focused on supporting the business, returning shareholder value through share repurchases and quarterly dividends as well as opportunistic and strategic acquisition opportunities that enhance our global competitiveness. Additionally, we have taken capital structure actions to optimize our balance sheet, through extending the maturities of our long-term debt and lowering our annualized interest expense.
The Board of Directors declared a dividend of
As ofMarch 31, 2022 , we had$2,674.7 million in total debt outstanding and consolidated indebtedness less netted cash, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, of$2,559.7 million . Leverage based on the ratio of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash to adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, was 2.25 times for the trailing twelve months endedMarch 31, 2022 . Our target range for our ratio of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is 2.0 to 3.0 times. Our debt service obligations could, under certain circumstances, have material consequences to our stockholders. Similarly, our cash requirements are subject to change as business conditions warrant and opportunities arise. The timing and size of any new business ventures or acquisitions that we may complete may also impact our cash requirements and debt service obligations. For information regarding the impact of COVID-19 on our business, including our liquidity and capital resources, please refer to "Risk Factors" contained in ITEM 1A of Part I of the 2021 Annual Report.
Non-GAAP Financial Information
We provide information regarding adjusted net income, adjusted EPS, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, 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, or an alternative to total debt as a measure of liquidity. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with performance measures that better reflect our 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 we make 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 we do not consider to be the fundamental attributes or primary drivers of our business. We believe that exclusion of these items assists in providing a more complete understanding of our underlying results from continuing operations and trends, and we use these measures along with the corresponding GAAP financial measures to manage our business, to evaluate our 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 measures include that these measures do not present all of the amounts associated with our 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.
Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS
A reconciliation of reported net income to adjusted net income and the
calculation of adjusted EPS is provided below. We believe that the use of these
