FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

SLEEP NUMBER ANNOUNCES FIRST QUARTER 2022 RESULTS

•Net sales declined 7% versus the prior year on constrained supply of semiconductor chips

•Demand for the quarter declined 3% on acute macro factors in January and March; backlog increased 20% since December

•Diluted EPS of $0.09 on lower-than-expected delivered net sales due to worsened external factors

•Updated 2022 EPS outlook to a range of $5.00 to $6.00 per share

MINNEAPOLIS – (April 20, 2022) – Sleep Number Corporation (Nasdaq: SNBR) today reported results for the quarter ended April 2, 2022.

“External factors continue to disrupt global supply and weaken consumer confidence, resulting in increased business complexity and volatility,” said Shelly Ibach, President and CEO. “In this dynamic environment, we remain focused on deepening consumer relationships and innovating for broad relevance while taking decisive actions to address near-term pressures. Our team is highly engaged and resilient, and our business model, liquidity and competitive advantages are strong. We remain steadfast in our commitment to fulfilling our purpose and creating superior long-term shareholder value.”

First Quarter Overview

•Net sales decreased 7% to $527 million while demand decreased 3% for the quarter, reflecting the impact of Omicron in January and the war in Ukraine in late February; excess backlog increased to over $200 million

•Gross margin of 57.3% of net sales was approximately 100 basis points above expectations due to level-loaded delivery efficiencies during the quarter

•Diluted EPS of 9 cents for the first quarter was below expectation of 30 to 40 cents on lower-than-expected delivered net sales

Cash Flows and Liquidity Review

•Generated $25 million in net cash from operating activities in the first quarter, compared with $112 million for the same period last year on constrained current year deliveries and changes in working capital

•Invested $42 million in Sleep Number stock compared to $167 million for the same period last year

•Leverage ratio of 3.4x EBITDAR at the end of the first quarter; more than $400 million of liquidity remains against current revolver

•Return on invested capital (ROIC) of 20.5% for the trailing twelve-month period reflecting two consecutive quarters constrained by electronics component supply

Financial Outlook

The company updated its full-year 2022 diluted EPS outlook to a range of $5.00 to $6.00 per share. The outlook assumes low double-digit net sales growth for 2022 on flat to low single-digit demand growth the balance of the year, while servicing significant excess backlog. The company expects to generate approximately $200 million of cash from operations and anticipates 2022 capital expenditures of $70 million to $80 million.

Conference Call Information

Management will host its regularly scheduled conference call to discuss the company’s results at 5 p.m. EDT (4 p.m. CDT; 2 p.m. PDT) today.

Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (Adjusted EBITDA)

(in thousands)

We define earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (Adjusted EBITDA) as net income plus: income tax expense, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation and asset impairments. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is a useful indicator of our financial performance and our ability to generate cash from operating activities. Our definition of Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled definitions used by other companies. The table below reconciles Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, to the comparable GAAP financial measure:

Calculation of Return on Invested Capital (ROIC)

(in thousands)

ROIC is a financial measure we use to determine how efficiently we deploy our capital. It quantifies the return we earn on our invested capital. Management believes ROIC is also a useful metric for investors and financial analysts. We compute ROIC as outlined below. Our definition and calculation of ROIC may not be comparable to similarly titled definitions and calculations used by other companies. The tables below reconcile net operating profit after taxes (NOPAT) and total invested capital, which are non-GAAP financial measures, to the comparable GAAP financial measures:

Return on invested capital (ROIC) 7 20.5 % 27.6 %
1 Rent expense is added back to operating income to show the impact of owning versus leasing the related assets.
--- ---
2 Depreciation is based on the average of the last five fiscal quarters' ending capitalized operating lease obligations (see note 5) for the respective reporting periods with an assumed thirty-year useful life. This life assumption is based on our long-term participation in given markets though specific retail location lease commitments are generally 5 to 10 years at inception. This is subtracted from operating income to illustrate the impact of owning versus leasing the related assets.
3 Reflects annual effective income tax rates, before discrete adjustments, of 23.7% and 23.9% for 2022 and 2021, respectively.
4 Long-term debt includes existing finance lease liabilities.
5 A multiple of eight times annual rent expense is used as an estimate for capitalizing our operating lease obligations. The methodology utilized aligns with the methodology of a nationally recognized credit rating agency.
6 Average invested capital represents the average of the last five fiscal quarters' ending invested capital balances.
7 ROIC equals NOPAT divided by average invested capital.
Note - Our ROIC calculation and data are considered non-GAAP financial measures and are not in accordance with, or preferable to, GAAP financial data.
