This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, (this "Report"), including the information incorporated by reference herein, contains "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), which includes information concerning one or more of our plans; objectives; goals; strategies and other information that is not historical information. Many of these statements appear, in particular, under the heading "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in Part I, ITEM 2 of this Report. When used in this Report, the words "assumes," "estimates," "expects," "guidance," "anticipates," "might," "projects," "predicts," "plans," "proposed," "targets," "intends," "believes," "will," "may," "could," "is likely to" and variations of such words or similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon our expectations and beliefs and various assumptions. There can be no assurance that we will realize our expectations or that our beliefs will prove correct.

Numerous factors, many of which are beyond the Company's control, could cause actual results to differ materially from any that may be expressed as forward-looking statements in this Report. These risk factors include the impact of the macroeconomic environment in both the U.S. and internationally on our business segments and expectations regarding growth of the mattress industry; uncertainties arising from global events, natural disasters or pandemics; risks associated with the duration, scope and severity of COVID-19 and its effects on our business and operations, including the disruption or delay of production and delivery of materials and products in our supply chain; the impact of travel bans, work-from-home policies, or shelter-in-place orders; a temporary or prolonged shutdown of manufacturing facilities or retail stores and decreased retail traffic; the effects of strategic investments on our operations, including our efforts to expand our global market share; expectations regarding the Dreams acquisition; the ability to develop and successfully launch new products; the efficiency and effectiveness of our advertising campaigns and other marketing programs; the ability to increase sales productivity within existing retail accounts and to further penetrate the retail channel, including the timing of opening or expanding within large retail accounts and the timing and success of product launches, and the related expenses and life cycles of such products; the ability to continuously improve and expand our product line; the effects of consolidation of retailers on revenues and costs; competition in our industry; consumer acceptance of our products; general economic, financial and industry conditions, particularly conditions relating to liquidity, financial performance and related credit issues present in the retail sector; financial distress among our business partners, customers and competitors, and financial solvency and related problems experienced by other market participants, any of which may be amplified by the effects of COVID-19; our reliance on information technology and the associated risks involving potential security lapses and/or cyber-based attacks; the outcome of pending tax audits or other tax, regulatory or investigation proceedings and pending litigation; changes in foreign tax rates and changes in tax laws generally, including the ability to utilize tax loss carryforwards; market disruptions related to COVID-19 which may frustrate our ability to access financing on acceptable terms or at all; our capital structure and debt level, including our ability to meet financial obligations and continue to comply with the terms and financial ratio covenants of our credit facilities; changes in interest rates; effects of changes in foreign exchange rates on our reported earnings; changing commodity costs; expectations regarding our target leverage, our share repurchase program and quarterly cash dividend; sales fluctuations due to seasonality; the effect of future legislative or regulatory changes, including changes in international trade duties, tariffs and other aspects of international trade policy; our ability to protect our intellectual property; and disruptions to the implementation of our strategic priorities and business plan caused by changes in our executive management team.

Other potential risk factors include the risk factors discussed under the heading "Risk Factors" in Part I, ITEM 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 (the "2020 Annual Report"). In addition, there may be other factors that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements.

All forward-looking statements attributable to us apply only as of the date of this Report and are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements included in this Report. Except as may be required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any of the forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

(3) Acquisitions

Acquisition of Dreams Topco Limited

On August 2, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of Dreams Topco Limited and its direct and indirect subsidiaries ("Dreams"), for a cash purchase price of $476.7 million, which includes $49.7 million of cash acquired and a working capital adjustment payable of $6.6 million. The transaction was funded using cash on hand and bank financing. Dreams has developed a successful multi-channel sales strategy, with over 200 brick and mortar retail locations in the United Kingdom, an industry-leading online channel, as well as manufacturing and delivery assets.

The financial results of Dreams subsequent to the date of acquisition are included in the condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company. The Company accounted for this transaction as a business combination. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price is based on the fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of August 2, 2021. The Company continues to obtain information to complete its valuation of intangible assets, as well as to determine the acquired assets and liabilities, including tax assets, liabilities and other attributes. The components of the preliminary purchase price allocation are as follows:


(in millions)
Accounts receivable, net	$	3.5
Inventory	51.1
Property, plant and equipment	30.4
Goodwill	331.3
Indefinite-lived intangible asset	143.1
Operating lease right-of-use assets	158.2
Other current and non-current assets	7.1
Accounts payable	(55.6)

Operating lease liabilities	(165.1)
Debt	(6.1)
Other liabilities	(2.4)
Purchase price, net of cash acquired	$	427.0

The indefinite-lived intangible asset represents the Dreams' portfolio of trade names as marketed through Dreams. The Company applied the income approach through a relief from royalty method to fair value the trade name asset using level 2 inputs. The indefinite-lived intangible asset is not deductible for income tax purposes.

Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the purchase price over the net assets acquired and primarily represents the expansion of retail competency and online capabilities, and expected synergistic manufacturing and distribution benefits to be realized from the acquisition. The goodwill is not deductible for income tax purposes and is included within the International business segment.

On June 15, 2021, the Company redeemed its $600.0 million issued and outstanding 2026 Senior Notes, in full, at 102.75% of their principal amount, plus the accrued and unpaid interest.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Financial instruments, although not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and the Company's debt obligations. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of those instruments. Borrowings under the 2019 Credit Agreement and the securitized debt are at variable interest rates and accordingly their carrying amounts approximate fair value. The fair value of the following material financial instruments were based on observable inputs estimated using discounted cash flows and market-based expectations for interest rates, credit risk and the contractual terms of debt instruments. The fair values of these material financial instruments are as follows:

On October 28, 2021, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized an increase to the share repurchase authorization bringing the total authorization to $600.0 million.

In addition, the Company acquired shares upon the vesting of certain restricted stock units ("RSUs") and performance restricted stock units ("PRSUs"), which were withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations during each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. The shares withheld were valued at the closing price of the stock on the New York Stock Exchange on the vesting date or first business day prior to vesting, resulting in approximately $0.3 million and $0.1 million in treasury stock acquired during the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company acquired approximately $14.4 million and $12.1 million in treasury stock to satisfy tax withholding obligations during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

(9) Stock-Based Compensation

The Company's stock-based compensation expense for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 included PRSUs, non-qualified stock options, RSUs and deferred stock units ("DSUs"). A summary of the Company's stock-based compensation expense is presented in the following table:


	Three Months Ended September 30,				Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in millions)	2021		2020		2021		2020
PRSU expense	$	10.3	$	65.0	$	29.6	$	66.2
Option expense	0.4		1.3		1.2		3.7
RSU/DSU expense	5.4		5.5		15.5		16.7
Total stock-based compensation expense	$	16.1	$	71.8	$	46.3	$	86.6

The Company grants PRSUs to executive officers and certain members of management. Actual payout under the PRSUs is dependent upon the achievement of certain financial goals. During the first quarter of 2021, the Company granted PRSUs as a component of the long-term incentive plan ("2021 PRSUs"). The Company has recorded stock-based compensation expense related to the 2021 PRSUs during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, as it was probable that the Company would achieve the specified performance target for the performance period.

(10) Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is involved in various legal and administrative proceedings incidental to the operations of its business. The Company believes that the outcome of all such pending proceedings in the aggregate will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, liquidity or operating results.

(11) Income Taxes

The Company's effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 was 24.9% and 25.2%, respectively. The Company's effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 was 24.3% and 26.5%. The Company's effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% principally due to subpart F income (i.e., global intangible low-taxed income, or "GILTI," earned by the Company's foreign subsidiaries), foreign income tax rate differentials, state and local taxes, changes in the Company's uncertain tax positions, the excess tax deficiency (or benefit) related to stock-based compensation and certain other permanent items.

As discussed in Note 3, "Acquisitions," the goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset recognized as part of the Dreams acquisition is not deductible for income tax purposes.

The Company has been involved in a dispute with the Danish Tax Authority ("SKAT") regarding the royalty paid by a U.S. subsidiary of Tempur Sealy International to a Danish subsidiary (the "Danish Tax Matter") for tax years 2001 through current. The royalty is paid by the U.S. subsidiary for the right to utilize certain intangible assets owned by the Danish subsidiary in the U.S. production process.

During the quarter ended June 30, 2021, the Company and SKAT resolved in all material respects the calculation of interest payable to SKAT related to the settlement of the Danish Tax Matters for the years 2001 through 2011 (the "Settlement Years"). This resolution resulted in SKAT refunding substantially all of the excess tax deposits it was holding for the Settlement Years (all other aspects of the settlement of the Settlement Years had previously been agreed upon). As such, the Danish Tax Matter for the Settlement Years is considered in all material respects, closed. Consequently, the tax deposits previously with SKAT were offset against the uncertain income tax liability for the Settlement Years.

The uncertain income tax liabilities for the Danish Tax Matter for the Settlement Years and for the years 2012 through 2021 (the "2012 to Current Period") are reflected in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as per below:

	Total	312.4	$	48.6	1,142.3	$	187.5

The deferred tax asset for the U.S. correlative benefit associated with the accrual of Danish tax for the 2012 to Current Period at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 is approximately $12.7 million and $12.0 million, respectively.

During the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company made a tax deposit with SKAT of DKK 97.2 million (approximately $15.1 million) applicable to a tax assessment by SKAT for the year 2015. The Company is contesting this assessment (as well as assessments made by SKAT in 2020 for the years 2012 through 2014 for which the Company made deposits totaling approximately DKK 210.8 million (approximately $32.9 million) to SKAT). The Company has other taxes on deposit with SKAT of approximately DKK 9.8 million (approximately $1.5 million).

At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, the Company held cash on deposit with SKAT. The deposit at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 is included within the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as per below:


	September 30, 2021			December 31, 2020
	DKK	USD		DKK	USD
Prepaid expenses and other current assets	—	$	—	847.3	$	139.1
Other non-current assets	317.8	49.5		333.6	54.8
Total	317.8	$	49.5	1,180.9	$	193.9

If the Company is not successful in resolving the Danish Tax Matter for the 2012 to Current Period or there is a change in facts and circumstances, the Company may be required to further increase its uncertain income tax position associated with this matter, or decrease its deferred tax asset, also related to this matter, which could have a material impact on the Company's reported earnings.

There were no other significant changes in the Danish Tax Matter or other uncertain tax positions during the three or nine months ended September 30, 2021.

The Company excluded an immaterial number of shares and 0.5 million shares for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, because their exercise price was greater than the average market price of Tempur Sealy International's common stock or they were otherwise anti-dilutive. Holders of non-vested stock-based compensation awards do not have voting rights.

(13) Business Segment Information

The Company operates in two segments: North America and International. These segments are strategic business units that are managed separately based on geography.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the 2020 Annual Report, including "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" included in ITEM 7 of Part II of the 2020 Annual Report, and the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in this Report. Unless otherwise noted, all of the financial information in this Report is consolidated financial information for the Company. The forward-looking statements in this discussion regarding the mattress and pillow industries, our expectations regarding our future performance, liquidity and capital resources and other non-historical statements in this discussion are subject to numerous risks and uncertainties. See "Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" elsewhere in this Report, in the 2020 Annual Report and the section titled "Risk Factors" contained in ITEM 1A of Part I of the 2020 Annual Report. Our actual results may differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

In this discussion and analysis, we discuss and explain the consolidated financial condition and results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, including the following topics:

•an overview of our business and strategy,

•results of operations, including our net sales and costs in the periods presented as well as changes between periods;

•expected sources of liquidity for future operations; and

•our use of certain non-GAAP financial measures.

Business Overview

General

We are committed to improving the sleep of more people, every night, all around the world. As a global leader in the design, manufacture and distribution of bedding products, 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. Our North America segment consists of Tempur and Sealy manufacturing and distribution subsidiaries, joint ventures and licensees located in the U.S., Canada and Mexico. Our International segment consists of Tempur manufacturing and distribution subsidiaries, Sealy distribution subsidiaries, joint ventures and licensees located in Europe, Asia-Pacific and Latin America (other than Mexico). On August 2, 2021, we acquired Dreams Topco Limited and its direct and indirect subsidiaries ("Dreams"), which is 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 13, "Business Segment Information," included in Part I, ITEM 1 of this Report.

Our product brand portfolio includes many highly recognized and iconic brands in the industry, including Tempur®, Tempur-Pedic®, Sealy® featuring Posturepedic® Technology and Stearns & Foster® and our non-branded offerings include value-focused private label OEM products. Our distinct brands allow for complementary merchandising strategies.

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, 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.

Table of Contents

At the outset of the COVID-19 global pandemic we experienced a reduction in total net sales across both of our business segments in the first quarter of 2020. Our North America business began experiencing sharp declines in total net sales and orders in mid-March. Order trends reached their lowest point in early April 2020 when they had declined approximately 80% as compared to the prior year. North American order trends significantly improved beginning in late May, and this improvement continued throughout the remainder of 2020. This momentum has continued as the negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic largely subsided in the first nine months of 2021, as compared to the significant global disruption experienced throughout early 2020. Our consolidated year-to-date net sales increased 36.3% as compared to the same period in 2020, which was impacted by COVID-19. Current order trends continue to indicate growth. As a result, we expect consolidated net sales growth to exceed 35% for the full year 2021.

Over the past several years and accelerating during the COVID-19 global pandemic, consumers have shifted their spending habits towards in-home products, including bedding products. We believe this may be a long-term shift in consumer spending habits, which could continue to favorably impact our industry. The rapid increase in demand for bedding products has challenged the entire bedding industry and supply chain, including our business. In the U.S., the broad-based increase in demand coupled with supply chain constraints has created operational challenges for U.S. production. The availability of certain commodities improved throughout the third quarter of 2021. However, other key components, as well as inbound and outbound freight, remain challenged. As a result, the U.S. sales growth in the first three quarters of 2021 was unfavorably impacted as we could not fulfill the entire domestic demand for these products. We expect these constraints to continue to impact sales growth into the fourth quarter of 2021. We estimate sales would have been approximately $200 million higher in the third quarter of 2021 had we not experienced supply chain constraints. We expect these supply chain constraints will be largely resolved by the end of 2021 and expect to be better positioned to meet consumer demand heading into 2022.

During the first three quarters of 2021, commodity costs unfavorably impacted our gross margin. We implemented pricing actions in the fourth quarter of 2020 and in the second and third quarters of 2021 to mitigate these known commodity headwinds. Since then, we have continued to manage through a highly inflationary commodity environment and we expect to take additional pricing actions to offset these headwinds in 2022.

While we are unable to determine or predict the nature, duration or scope of the overall impact the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our business, results of operations, liquidity or capital resources, we believe that it is important to share where our Company stands today, how our response to COVID-19 is progressing and how our operations and financial condition may change as the fight against COVID-19 progresses. We will continue to actively monitor the situation and may take further actions that alter our business operations as may be required by federal, state or local authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers, suppliers and stockholders. For further information regarding the impact of COVID-19 on the Company, please refer to "Risk Factors" in ITEM 1A of Part I of the 2020 Annual Report.

Acquisition of Dreams

On August 2, 2021, we completed the acquisition of Dreams, for a cash purchase price of $476.7 million, which included $49.7 million of cash acquired and a working capital adjustment payable of $6.6 million. The transaction was funded using cash on hand and bank financing. Dreams has developed a successful multi-channel sales strategy, with over 200 brick and mortar retail locations in the United Kingdom, an industry-leading online channel, as well as manufacturing and delivery assets. 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. Dreams generated sales of approximately $400 million and earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") of approximately $75 million for the year ending December 31, 2020.

Product Launches

During the first quarter of 2021, we completed the launch of our Tempur-Ergo Smart Base Collection with Sleeptracker® technology in North America. In 2021, we began the largest rollout in Sealy North America's history with the introduction of new Posturepedic Plus™, Posturepedic® and Essentials product lines. The rollout will be split between two phases with Posturepedic® and Essentials product lines successfully launched in the first half of 2021 and the new higher end Posturepedic Plus™ line planned for 2022. We expect to launch a new Tempur product line in our International segment in 2022.

Our global 2021 marketing plan is to aggressively support our innovative bedding products through investing significant marketing dollars to promote our worldwide brands.

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.

	2021		2020		2021		2020		2021		2020
(in millions)	Consolidated				North America				International

Total net sales	$	1,358.3	$	1,132.3	$	1,120.0	$	994.7	$	238.3	$	137.6

Net sales increased 20.0%, and on a constant currency basis increased 19.2%. The change in net sales was driven by the following:

•North America net sales increased $125.3 million, or 12.6%. On a constant currency basis, North America net sales increased 11.9%. Net sales in the Wholesale channel increased $104.1 million, or 11.7%, primarily driven by broad-based demand across our retail partners. Net sales in the Direct channel increased $21.2 million, or 19.7%, primarily driven by strong company-owned stores sales growth.

•International net sales increased $100.7 million, or 73.2%. On a constant currency basis, International net sales increased 71.6%. Net sales in the Wholesale channel increased 6.1% on a constant currency basis. Net sales in the Direct channel increased 246.4% on a constant currency basis, primarily driven by the acquisition of Dreams.

GROSS PROFIT


	Three Months Ended September 30,
	2021				2020
(in millions, except percentages)	Gross Profit		Gross Margin		Gross Profit		Gross Margin		Margin Change
North America	$	447.1	39.9	%	$	445.0	44.7	%	(4.8)	%
International	130.0		54.6	%	85.2		61.9	%	(7.3)	%
Consolidated gross margin	$	577.1	42.5	%	$	530.2	46.8	%	(4.3)	%

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 Tempur and Sealy products. Our Sealy products have a significantly lower gross margin than our Tempur products. Our Sealy mattress products range from value to premium priced offerings, and gross margins are typically higher on premium products compared to value priced offerings. Our Tempur products are exclusively premium priced 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 North America and International segments.

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 430 basis points. The primary drivers of changes in gross margin by segment are discussed below:

•North America gross margin declined 480 basis points. The decline in gross margin was driven by price increases to customers without a margin benefit of 360 basis points, operational inefficiencies of 90 basis points and unfavorable brand mix of 70 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.

•International gross margin declined 730 basis points. The decline in gross margin was primarily driven by the acquisition of Dreams of 400 basis points and price increases to customers without a margin benefit of 180 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.

Operating expenses decreased $20.7 million, or 5.8%, and decreased 670 basis points as a percentage of net sales. The primary drivers of changes in operating expenses by segment are explained below:

•North America operating expenses increased $0.2 million, or 0.1%, and decreased 230 basis points as a percentage of net sales. The increase in operating expenses was primarily driven by advertising and other selling and marketing investments offset by decreased bad debt expense.

•International operating expenses increased $37.7 million, or 77.3%, and increased 80 basis points as a percentage of net sales. The increase in operating expenses was primarily driven by advertising and other selling and marketing investments, as well as the acquisition of Dreams. Additionally, we recorded $2.3 million of stamp taxes associated with the acquisition of Dreams.

•Corporate operating expenses decreased $58.6 million, or 61.0%. The decrease in operating expenses was primarily driven by decreased amortization for the Company's aspirational plan and other stock-based compensation.

Research and development expenses for the three months ended September 30, 2021 were $6.7 million compared to $6.1 million for the three months ended September 30, 2020, an increase of $0.6 million, or 9.8%.

•North America operating expenses increased $68.4 million, or 12.7%, and decreased 360 basis points as a percentage of net sales. The increase in operating expenses was primarily driven by advertising and other selling and marketing investments, offset by incremental bad debt expense primarily related to the bankruptcy of one department store in the U.S. in 2020. Additionally, in 2020, we recorded $11.7 million of customer-related charges in connection with the bankruptcy of Art Van Furniture, LLC and affiliates to fully reserve trade receivables and other assets associated with this account and $7.0 million of asset impairment charges related to the write-off of certain sales and marketing assets driven by the macro-economic environment, which were not repeated in 2021.

•North America operating income increased $223.4 million and operating margin improved 300 basis points. The improvement in operating margin was primarily driven by improved operating expense leverage of 240 basis points and decreased customer-related charges, offset by the decline in gross margin of 70 basis points. In 2020, we recorded $11.7 million of customer-related charges in connection with the bankruptcy of Art Van Furniture, LLC and affiliates. Additionally, in 2020, we recorded $7.0 million of asset impairment charges related to the write-off of certain sales and marketing assets driven by the macro-economic environment and incurred $4.1 million of incremental costs related to global pandemic relief efforts, sanitation supplies and services and other items, which were not repeated in 2021.

•International operating income increased $61.0 million and operating margin improved 290 basis points. The improvement in operating margin was primarily driven by improved operating expense leverage of 210 basis points, the decline in gross margin of 150 basis points. Additionally, in 2020, we incurred $3.8 million of restructuring costs associated with headcount reductions driven by the macro-economic environment and $3.1 million of incremental costs related to global pandemic relief efforts, sanitation supplies and services and other items, which were not repeated in 2021.

•Corporate operating expenses decreased $38.2 million, which positively impacted our consolidated operating margin by 110 basis points. The decrease in operating expenses was primarily driven by amortization for the Company's aspirational plan and other stock-based compensation. Additionally, we recorded $3.9 million of acquisition-related costs, primarily related to legal and professional fees associated with the acquisition of Dreams.

INTEREST EXPENSE, NET


	Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in millions, except percentages)	2021		2020		% Change
Interest expense, net	$	45.8	$	61.0	(24.9)	%

Interest expense, net, decreased $15.2 million, or 24.9%. The decrease in interest expense, net, was primarily driven by reduced average levels of outstanding debt and lower interest rates on our debt, partially offset by $5.2 million of overlapping interest expense for the period between the issuance of the 2029 Senior Notes and redemption of the 2026 Senior Notes.

LOSS ON EXTINGUISHMENT OF DEBT

On March 25, 2021, we issued our 2029 Senior Notes. During the second quarter of 2021, we used the net proceeds from the 2029 Senior Notes primarily to redeem in full our $600.0 million 2026 Senior Notes, at 102.75% of their principal amount, plus the accrued and unpaid interest. As a result of the redemption, we recognized $18.0 million of loss on extinguishment of debt, which included a prepayment premium of $16.5 million and the write-off of $1.5 million of deferred financing costs. Additionally, in the first quarter of 2021, we recognized $5.0 million of loss on extinguishment of debt, which includes a prepayment premium of $3.5 million and the write-off of $1.5 million of deferred financing costs, associated with the redemption of the remaining amount outstanding of the 2023 Senior Notes. Refer to Note 5, "Debt," in our Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in ITEM 1 under Part I for additional information.

The effective tax rate as compared to the U.S. federal statutory rate for the for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 included a net unfavorable impact of discrete items primarily related to the impact of the likelihood of realization of certain deferred tax assets.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

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 of September 30, 2021, we had net working capital of $323.4 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $503.3 million, as compared to a working capital deficit of $6.4 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $65.0 million, as of December 31, 2020.

At September 30, 2021, total cash and cash equivalents were $503.3 million, of which $369.8 million was held in the U.S. and $133.5 million was held by subsidiaries outside of the U.S. The amount of cash and cash equivalents held by subsidiaries outside of the U.S. and not readily convertible into the U.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:


	Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in millions)	2021		2020
Net cash provided by (used in) continuing operations:
Operating activities	$	597.5	$	497.9
Investing activities	(508.0)		(111.4)
Financing activities	356.4		(228.5)

Cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations increased $99.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was driven by strong operational performance in the period.

Cash used in investing activities from continuing operations increased $396.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020. The increase in cash used in investing activities was due to the acquisition of Dreams, which occurred in the third quarter of 2021.

Cash provided by financing activities from continuing operations increased $584.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020. For the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we had net funding of $988.4 million as compared to net borrowings of $21.0 million in 2020 on our credit facilities. This increase included proceeds of $1.6 billion from the issuance of our 2029 and 2031 Senior Notes, offset by repayments of $250.0 million of our 2023 Senior Notes and $600.0 million of our 2026 Senior Notes and net borrowings of $238.4 million on our credit facilities. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, we repurchased $565.8 million and $199.6 million, respectively, of our common stock. Cash provided by financing activities also decreased due to dividends paid to shareholders of $45.8 million and payment of deferred financing costs of $25.3 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

Cash Provided by (Used in) Discontinued Operations

Net cash provided by (used in) operating, investing and financing activities from discontinued operations for the periods ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 was not material.

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures totaled $82.1 million and $73.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. We currently expect our 2021 capital expenditures to be approximately $140 million to $150 million, which includes manufacturing capacity expansion and investments in our other growth initiatives.

Indebtedness

Our total debt increased to $2,361.7 million as of September 30, 2021 from $1,370.3 million as of December 31, 2020. On November 9, 2020, we redeemed $200.0 million of our issued and outstanding 2023 Senior Notes at 101.406% of their principal amount, plus the accrued and unpaid interest. During the first quarter of 2021, we redeemed the remaining $250.0 million of our 2023 Senior Notes, principally funded by our revolving credit facility, at 101.406% of the principal amount, plus the accrued and unpaid interest.

On February 2, 2021 we entered into an amendment to our 2019 Credit Agreement, which increased our revolving credit facility from $425.0 million to $725.0 million. Total availability under our revolving senior secured credit facility was $724.9 million as of September 30, 2021, which matures in 2024.

On March 25, 2021, we issued the 2029 Senior Notes. The 2029 Senior Notes mature on April 15, 2029 and 4.00% interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on each April 15 and October 15, beginning on October 15, 2021. On June 15, 2021, we redeemed our $600.0 million 2026 Senior Notes, in full, using net proceeds from our 2029 Senior Notes.

Additionally, on May 26, 2021, we entered into an amendment to our 2019 Credit Agreement. The amendment provides for a $300.0 million delayed draw term loan. On July 30, 2021 we drew down the full $300.0 million available under the delayed draw term loan to fund, in part, the Dreams acquisition.

On September 21, 2021, we entered into an additional amendment to the 2019 Credit Agreement to remove the limit to the amount of netted cash that may be deducted from indebtedness for purposes of calculating certain leverage ratios.

On September 24, 2021, we issued the 2031 Senior Notes. The 2031 Senior Notes mature on October 15, 2031 and 3.875% interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on each April 15 and October 15, beginning on April 15, 2022. Refer to Note 5, "Debt" in our "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements," under Part I, ITEM 1 for further discussion of our debt.

As of September 30, 2021, 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 1.68 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 of September 30, 2021, 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. On February 11, 2021, the Board of Directors authorized an increase of $211.4 million, to the existing share repurchase authorization of Tempur Sealy International's common stock. On April 29, 2021, the Board of Directors authorized an additional increase, of $325.3 million, to the share repurchase authorization. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we repurchased 14.1 million shares under our share repurchase program for $551.4 million. As of September 30, 2021, we had $186.9 million remaining under our share repurchase authorization. On October 28, 2021, the Board of Directors authorized an additional increase to the share repurchase authorization bringing the total authorization to $600.0 million.

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 of Equity Securities," in the 2020 Annual Report. Please also refer to "Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities" in ITEM 2(c) of Part II of this Report.

Future Liquidity Sources and Uses

As of September 30, 2021, we had $1,397.3 million of liquidity, including $503.3 million of cash on hand, $724.9 million available under our revolving senior secured credit facility and $169.1 million available under our accounts receivable securitization. In addition, we expect to generate significant cash flow from operations in the full year 2021. 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.

For the third quarter of 2021, the Board of Directors has declared a dividend of $0.09 per share. The dividend is payable on November 23, 2021 to shareholders of record as of November 11, 2021.

As of September 30, 2021, we had $2,361.7 million in total debt outstanding and consolidated indebtedness less netted cash, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, of $1,859.7 million. Leverage based on the ratio of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash to adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, was 1.68 times for the trailing twelve months ended September 30, 2021. 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. Total cash interest payments related to our borrowings are expected to be approximately $55 million in 2021.

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 2020 Annual Report.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

We provide information regarding adjusted net income, adjusted EPS, adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted operating income (expense), adjusted operating margin, 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, gross profit, gross margin, operating income (expense), operating margin 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.

(1)			In the second quarter of 2021, we incurred $5.2 million of overlapping interest expense during the period between the issuance of the 2029 Senior Notes and the redemption of the 2026 Senior Notes.
(2)			In the trailing twelve months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized $27.2 million of loss on extinguishment of debt associated with the redemption of the 2026 and 2023 Senior Notes.
(3)			In the trailing twelve months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized $4.2 million of amortization related to the aspirational awards.
(4)			Certain subsidiaries in the International business segment are accounted for as discontinued operations and have been designated as unrestricted subsidiaries in the 2019 Credit Agreement. Therefore, these subsidiaries are excluded from our adjusted financial measures for covenant compliance purposes.
(5)			We completed the acquisition of Dreams on August 2, 2021 and designated this subsidiary as restricted under the 2019 Credit Agreement. For covenant compliance purposes, we included $69.4 million of EBITDA from this subsidiary for the ten months prior to acquisition in the Company's calculation of adjusted EBITDA for the trailing twelve months ended September 30, 2021.
(6)			In the trailing twelve months ended September 30, 2021, we recognized $6.2 million of acquisition-related costs, primarily related to legal and professional fees and stamp taxes associated with the acquisition of Dreams.
(7)			In the fourth quarter of 2020, we recognized $2.3 million of employer-related tax costs related to the aspirational plan compensation.
(8)			In the fourth quarter of 2020, we recorded $2.3 million of other income related to the sale of a manufacturing facility.

Under the 2019 Credit Agreement, the definition of adjusted EBITDA contains certain restrictions that limit adjustments to net income when calculating adjusted EBITDA. For the trailing twelve months ended September 30, 2021, our adjustments to net income when calculating adjusted EBITDA did not exceed the allowable amount under the 2019 Credit Agreement.

The ratio of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash to adjusted EBITDA is 1.68 times for the trailing twelve months ended September 30, 2021. The 2019 Credit Agreement requires us to maintain a ratio of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash to adjusted EBITDA of less than 5.00:1.00 times.

Table of Contents

The following table sets forth the reconciliation of our reported total debt to the calculation of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash as of September 30, 2021. "Consolidated Indebtedness" and "Netted Cash" are terms used in the 2019 Credit Agreement for purposes of certain financial covenants.


(in millions)	September 30, 2021
Total debt, net	$	2,338.8
Plus: Deferred financing costs (1)	22.9
Consolidated indebtedness	2,361.7
Less: Netted cash (2)	502.0
Consolidated indebtedness less netted cash	$	1,859.7


(1)			We present deferred financing costs as a direct reduction from the carrying amount of the related debt in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. For purposes of determining total debt for financial covenant purposes, we have added these costs back to total debt, net as calculated per the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
(2)			Netted cash includes cash and cash equivalents for domestic and foreign subsidiaries designated as restricted subsidiaries in the 2019 Credit Agreement.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

For a discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates, please refer to ITEM 7 under Part II, "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," in the 2020 Annual Report. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates in 2021.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Foreign Currency Exposures

As a result of our global operations, our earnings are exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Many of our foreign businesses operate in functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar. If the U.S. dollar strengthens relative to the Euro or other foreign currencies where we have operations, there will be a negative impact on our operating results upon translation of those foreign operating results into the U.S. dollar. Foreign currency exchange rate changes positively impacted our net income by 1.4% in the three months ended September 30, 2021 and positively impacted our net income by 2.5% in the nine months ended September 30, 2021. Foreign currency exchange rate changes positively impacted our adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, by 1.1% in the three months ended September 30, 2021 and positively impacted our adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, by 2.0% in the nine months ended September 30, 2021.

We hedge a portion of our currency exchange exposure relating to foreign currency transactions with foreign exchange forward contracts. A sensitivity analysis indicates the potential loss in fair value on foreign exchange forward contracts outstanding at September 30, 2021, resulting from a hypothetical 10.0% adverse change in all foreign currency exchange rates against the U.S. dollar, is approximately $1.8 million. Such losses would be largely offset by gains from the revaluation or settlement of the underlying assets and liabilities that are being protected by the foreign exchange forward contracts.

Interest Rate Risk

As of September 30, 2021, we had variable-rate debt of approximately $687.2 million. A sensitivity analysis indicates that, holding other variables constant, including levels of indebtedness, a one hundred basis point increase in interest rates on our variable-rate debt would cause an estimated reduction in income before income taxes of approximately $6.8 million. We continue to evaluate the interest rate environment and look for opportunities to improve our debt structure and minimize interest rate risk and expense.
