Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On February 7, 2022, Leggett & Platt, Incorporated issued a press release announcing its financial results for the fourth quarter and year ending December 31, 2021 and related matters. The press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
This information is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. This information shall not be incorporated by reference into any document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
On February 8, 2022, the Company will hold an investor conference call to discuss its fourth quarter and year-end results, earnings guidance, market conditions and related matters.
The press release contains the Company (i) Net Debt/Reported Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months) ratio; (ii) Adjusted EPS; (iii) Adjusted EBIT; (iv) Adjusted EBIT Margin; (v) EBITDA; (vi) EBITDA Margin; (vii) Adjusted EBITDA; (viii) Adjusted EBITDA Margin; (ix) Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months); and (x) Organic Sales.
The press release also contains the Segments’ (i) Adjusted EBIT; (ii) Adjusted EBIT Margin; (iii) Adjusted EBITDA; (iv) Adjusted EBITDA Margin; and (v) change in Organic Sales.
Company management believes the presentation of Net Debt/Reported Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months) provides investors a useful way to assess the time it would take the Company to pay off its debt, ignoring various factors including interest and taxes. Management uses this ratio as supplemental information to assess its ability to pay off its incurred debt. Because we may not be able to use our earnings to reduce our debt on a dollar-for-dollar basis, the presentation of Net Debt/Reported Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months) may have material limitations.
Company management believes the presentation of Company Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT Margin, EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months), and Segment Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT Margin, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin is useful to investors in that it aids investors’ understanding of underlying operational profitability. Management uses these non-GAAP measures as supplemental information to assess the Company’s operational performance.
Organic Sales is calculated as trade sales excluding sales attributable to acquisitions and divestitures consummated within the last twelve months. Company management believes the presentation of Organic Sales, or change in Organic Sales, is useful to investors, and is used by management, as supplemental information to analyze our underlying sales performance from period to period in our legacy businesses.
The above non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should not be considered a substitute for, or more meaningful than, their GAAP counterparts. For non-GAAP reconciliations, please refer to pages 7 and 8 of the press release.
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

|---|---|
| • | 4Q EPS was $.77, a decrease of $.02 vs 4Q20 |

| --- | --- |
President and CEO Mitch Dolloff commented, “We are pleased to have delivered record^1^ full year results in 2021 despite a myriad of macro market challenges, including supply chain issues related to semiconductor shortages, foam chemical shortages, labor availability, and transportation challenges, as well as higher costs associated with each of these issues. We also delivered record^1^ quarterly sales and solid operating results in the fourth quarter. Despite these ongoing challenges, including inflation and a likely shift to tighter monetary policy, we expect continued improvement in 2022 as conditions gradually stabilize and growth continues in our businesses most negatively impacted by the pandemic.
“In addition to record results, Leggett achieved several milestones in 2021. We increased our dividend for the 50^th^ consecutive year, honoring our commitment to return value to our shareholders. We strengthened our balance sheet by extending our debt maturity profile with the issuance of 30-year notes. We completed three small acquisitions that expanded our capabilities in International Bedding, Aerospace, and Work Furniture. Leggett remains well-positioned, both competitively and financially, to capitalize on long-term opportunities in our various end markets. Our enduring fundamentals give us confidence in our ability to continue creating long-term value for our shareholders.
“Finally, I would like to thank our employees for their tremendous contributions in another challenging year. Your collaboration, agility, dedication, and commitment to our values drive our success.”
