Business Segment Highlights

The Company's business segments include Mattress Firm (acquired on February 5, 2025), Tempur Sealy North America and Tempur Sealy International. Corporate operating expenses are not included in any of the business segments and are presented separately as a reconciling item to consolidated results.

Mattress Firm net sales increased 49.2% to $885.9 million as compared to $593.7 million in the first quarter of 2025, primarily driven by the inclusion of net sales for a full quarter as compared to the first quarter of 2025, which included Mattress Firm for the period of February 5, 2025 through March 31, 2025. All Mattress Firm sales are reported through the direct channel.

Mattress Firm gross margin was 30.8% as compared to 32.2% in the first quarter of 2025. Adjusted gross margin⁽¹⁾ declined 360 basis points to 31.5% as compared to 35.1% in the first quarter of 2025. These declines were primarily driven by investments in promotional expenses, product mix and fixed cost deleverage.

Mattress Firm operating margin was 3.8% as compared to 1.1% in the first quarter of 2025. Adjusted operating margin⁽¹⁾ declined 230 basis points to 4.9% as compared to 7.2% in the first quarter of 2025, primarily driven by the decline in gross margin and the inclusion of operating income for a full quarter as compared to the first quarter of 2025, which included Mattress Firm for the period of February 5, 2025 through March 31, 2025. These declines were partially offset by favorable co-operative advertising expense.

Tempur Sealy North America net sales decreased 20.2% to $563.5 million as compared to $706.2 million in the first quarter of 2025, primarily driven by the accounting elimination of sales to Mattress Firm. Net sales through the wholesale channel decreased $111.0 million, or 19.0%, to $473.5 million as compared to the first quarter of 2025, primarily driven by the accounting elimination of sales to Mattress Firm for a full quarter in 2026 as compared to the first quarter of 2025, which eliminated sales to Mattress Firm for the period of February 5, 2025 through March 31, 2025. Net sales through the direct channel decreased $31.7 million, or 26.0%, to $90.0 million as compared to the first quarter of 2025, primarily driven by a decrease in sales from the divestiture of Sleep Outfitters in the second quarter of 2025.

North America gross margin was 57.9% as compared to 34.0% in the first quarter of 2025. Adjusted gross margin⁽¹⁾ improved 1,300 basis points to 58.3% as compared to 45.3% in the first quarter of 2025. These improvements were primarily driven by the achievement of synergies, the elimination of sales to Mattress Firm, lower product launch costs and operational efficiencies.

North America operating margin was 23.4% as compared to 5.7% in the first quarter of 2025. Adjusted operating margin⁽¹⁾ improved 710 basis points to 24.3% as compared to 17.2% in the first quarter of 2025. These improvements were primarily driven by the improvement in gross margin and the impact of the Mattress Firm acquisition, partially offset by investments in co-operative advertising expense.

Tempur Sealy International net sales increased 15.5% to $352.1 million as compared to $304.8 million in the first quarter of 2025, primarily driven by strong performance in key markets. On a constant currency basis⁽¹⁾, International net sales increased 7.2% as compared to the first quarter of 2025. Net sales through the direct channel increased $29.8 million, or 15.6%, to $220.4 million as compared to the first quarter of 2025. Net sales through the wholesale channel increased $17.5 million, or 15.3%, to $131.7 million as compared to the first quarter of 2025.

International gross margin improved 140 basis points to 50.4% as compared to 49.0% in the first quarter of 2025. The improvement was primarily driven by favorable mix and operational efficiencies.

International operating margin improved 160 basis points to 18.4% as compared to 16.8% in the first quarter of 2025. The improvement was primarily driven by the improvement in gross margin and operating expense leverage.

Corporate operating expense decreased to $42.9 million as compared to $85.0 million in the first quarter of 2025, primarily driven by decreased costs related to the Mattress Firm acquisition. Adjusted operating expense⁽¹⁾ was $30.6 million as compared to $32.8 million in the first quarter of 2025.

Consolidated Financial Position

Consolidated net income increased 414.8% to $104.2 million as compared to net loss of $(33.1) million in the first quarter of 2025. Adjusted net income⁽¹⁾ increased 28.4% to $124.5 million as compared to $97.0 million in the first quarter of 2025. EPS increased 388.2% to $0.49 as compared to loss per share of $(0.17) in the first quarter of 2025. Adjusted EPS⁽¹⁾ increased 20.4% to $0.59 as compared to $0.49 in the first quarter of 2025.

The Company ended the first quarter of 2026 with total debt of $4.6 billion and consolidated indebtedness less netted cash⁽¹⁾ of $4.5 billion. Leverage based on the ratio of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash⁽¹⁾ to adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ was 3.07 times for the quarter ended March 31, 2026.

Financial Guidance

For the full year 2026, the Company currently expects adjusted EPS⁽¹⁾ to be between $3.00 to $3.40, which represents an approximate 19% increase from 2025 adjusted EPS⁽¹⁾ at the mid-point of the range.

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, including the possible imposition of new tariffs or retaliatory tariffs, a potential U.S. government shutdown and its effect on sales and supply of materials, increases in existing tariffs and other changes in trade policy and regulations and the resulting uncertainty of the macroeconomic environment. 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 2026.

Proposed Acquisition of Leggett & Platt

On April 13, 2026, the Company announced it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Leggett & Platt, Incorporated ("Leggett & Platt"), a diversified component manufacturer, in an all-stock transaction valued at approximately $2.5 billion based on the closing price of Somnigroup International's common stock as of April 10, 2026 and inclusive of Leggett & Platt's existing indebtedness. The Company expects the transaction to close by year-end 2026, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, including approval by Leggett & Platt's shareholders and receipt of applicable regulatory approvals. A separate press release related to the announcement of this transaction can be found on the Company's investor relations website at investor.somnigroup.com.

Dividend Declared

Today, the Company announced that its Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.17 per share, payable on June 4, 2026 to shareholders of record at the close of business on May 21, 2026.

Summary of Channel Sales

The following table highlights net sales information, by channel and by business segment, for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:

SOMNIGROUP 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 March 31, 2026 and 2025:

Adjusted Gross Profit, Adjusted Gross Margin, Adjusted Operating Income (Expense) and Adjusted Operating Margin

A reconciliation of gross profit and gross margin to adjusted gross profit and adjusted gross margin, respectively, and operating income (expense) and operating margin to adjusted operating income (expense) and adjusted operating margin, respectively, 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 gross profit and operating income (expense) to the calculation of adjusted gross profit and adjusted operating income (expense) for the three months ended March 31, 2026.

The following table sets forth the reconciliation of the Company's reported gross profit and operating income (expense) to the calculation of adjusted gross profit and adjusted operating income (expense) for the three months ended March 31, 2025:

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Consolidated Indebtedness less Netted Cash

The following reconciliations are provided below:

• Net income to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA
• Ratio of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash to adjusted EBITDA
• Total debt, net to consolidated indebtedness less netted cash

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.

The following table sets forth the reconciliation of the Company's reported net income to the calculations of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended March 31, 2026 and 2025:

The following table sets forth the reconciliation of the Company's net income to the calculations of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA for the trailing twelve months ended March 31, 2026:

Under the 2023 Credit Agreement, the definition of adjusted EBITDA per credit facility contains certain restrictions that limit adjustments to net income when calculating adjusted EBITDA. For the trailing twelve months ended March 31, 2026, the Company's adjustments to net income when calculating adjusted EBITDA did not exceed the allowable amount under the 2023 Credit Agreement.

The ratio of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash to adjusted EBITDA per credit facility is 3.07 times for the trailing twelve months ended March 31, 2026. The 2023 Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain a ratio of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash to adjusted EBITDA of less than 5.00 times.

The following table sets forth the reconciliation of the Company's reported total debt to the calculation of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash as of March 31, 2026. "Consolidated Indebtedness" and "Netted Cash" are terms used in the 2023 Credit Agreement for purposes of certain financial covenants.
