Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

1. Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Business & Basis of Presentation

The Company prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended

September 28, 2024 of Sleep Number Corporation and its 100%-owned subsidiaries (Sleep Number or the Company),

without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and they reflect, in

the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments, including the elimination of all significant intra-entity

balances and transactions, necessary to present fairly its financial position as of September 28, 2024 and December 30,

2023, and the consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The historical and quarterly

consolidated results of operations may not be indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year or any future

period.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S.

generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and

regulations. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the most recent

audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for

the fiscal year ended December 30, 2023 and other recent filings with the SEC.

The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to

make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities,

disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the

reported amounts of sales, expenses and income taxes during the reporting period. Predicting future events is inherently

an imprecise activity and, as such, requires the use of judgment. As future events and their effects cannot be determined

with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in these estimates will be reflected

in the consolidated financial statements in future periods and could be material. The Company’s critical accounting

policies consist of stock-based compensation, warranty liabilities and revenue recognition.

Income Taxes

Income tax benefit totaled $0.9 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2024, compared with income tax

expense of $3 million last year. The change in income tax expense was primarily due to the change in (loss) income

before income taxes levels and the impact of discrete tax expenses. Discrete tax expense, primarily stock-based

compensation tax shortfalls, was $2.6 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2024, compared to $1.1 million

for the same period last year.

Recent Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Segment Reporting (Topic 280)

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued guidance within Accounting Standards Update

(ASU) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This ASU requires

that a public entity that has a single reportable segment provide all the disclosures required by the amendments in this

ASU and all existing disclosures in Topic 280. The Company has determined that its current business and operations

consist of a single business segment and a single reporting unit.

The amendments in this ASU are intended to improve segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced

disclosures about significant segment expenses. The key amendments included in this ASU:

•Require disclosure on an annual and interim basis, of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to

the chief operating decision maker (CODM) and are included within each reported measure of segment profit

and loss.

•Require disclosure on an annual and interim basis, an amount for other segment items (defined in this ASU) and

a description of its composition.


6 \| 3Q 2024 FORM 10-Q		SLEEP NUMBER CORPORATION

Table of Contents

SLEEP NUMBER CORPORATION

AND SUBSIDIARIES

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

•Clarify that if the CODM uses more than one measure of the segment’s profit or loss in assessing performance,

one or more of those additional measures may be reported.

•Require disclosure of the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the

reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing performance.

This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning

after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. This guidance is required to be adopted by the Company

beginning with the annual period of 2024. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods

presented in the consolidated financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on the

Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Currently, management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting

pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed

consolidated financial statements.

2. Fair Value Measurements

At September 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, the Company had $20 million and $19 million, respectively, of debt

and equity securities that fund the deferred compensation plan and are classified in other non-current assets. The

Company also had corresponding deferred compensation plan liabilities of $20 million and $19 million at September 28,

2024 and December 30, 2023, respectively, which are included in other non-current liabilities. The majority of the debt

and equity securities are Level 1 as they trade with sufficient frequency and volume to enable the Company to obtain

pricing information on an ongoing basis. Unrealized gains/(losses) on the debt and equity securities offset those

associated with the corresponding deferred compensation plan liabilities.

3. Inventories

Inventories consisted of the following (in thousands):


	September 28, 2024	December 30, 2023
Raw materials	$6,638	$9,092
Work in progress	133	92
Finished goods	86,268	106,249
	$93,039	$115,433

4. Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net

Goodwill and Indefinite-lived Intangible Assets

Goodwill was $64 million at September 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023. Indefinite-lived trade name/trademarks

totaled $1.4 million at both September 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023.

Definite-lived Intangible Assets

Patents were $2.0 million at both September 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023. Accumulated amortization was $0.9

million at September 28, 2024 and $0.8 million at December 30, 2023. Amortization expense for both the three months

ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, was $55 thousand, and for both the nine months ended

September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023 was $0.2 million.

Annual amortization for patents for subsequent years are as follows (in thousands):

2026		222
2027		222
2028		155
2029		99
Thereafter		46
Total future amortization for definite-lived intangible assets		$1,025

5. Credit Agreement

As of September 28, 2024, the Company’s credit facility had a total commitment amount of $680 million. The credit

facility is for general corporate purposes and to meet seasonal working capital requirements. The Amended and

Restated Credit and Security Agreement, dated February 14, 2018, among the Company, U.S. Bank National Association

and the several banks and other financial institutions from time to time party thereto (as amended, the Credit

Agreement), includes an accordion feature which allows the Company to increase the amount of the credit facility from

$680 million to $1.0 billion, subject to lenders’ approval. The Credit Agreement provides the lenders with a collateral

security interest in substantially all of the Company’s assets and those of its subsidiaries and requires the Company to

comply with, among other things, a maximum net leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio.

The maximum net leverage ratio permitted by the Credit Agreement is 5.00 to 1.00 for the quarterly period ended

September 28, 2024; 4.80 to 1.00 for the quarterly reporting period ending December 28, 2024; and 4.00 to 1.00 for

each quarterly reporting period occurring thereafter until maturity.

The minimum interest coverage ratio permitted by the Credit Agreement is 1.50 to 1.00 for both quarterly reporting

periods ending September 28, 2024 and December 28, 2024; and 3.00 to 1.00 for each quarterly reporting period

occurring thereafter until maturity.

The carrying amount of the outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement approximates fair value because

interest rates approximate the current rates available to the Company. Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the

Company pays a variable rate of interest and a commitment fee based on its leverage ratio. The Credit Agreement

matures in December 2026. The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants as of September 28, 2024.

The following table summarizes the Company’s borrowings under the credit facility ($ in thousands):


	September 28, 2024	December 30, 2023
Outstanding borrowings	$516,500	$539,500
Outstanding letters of credit	$7,147	$7,147
Additional borrowing capacity	$156,353	$138,353
Weighted-average interest rate	8.2%	8.5%

6. Leases

The Company leases its retail, office and manufacturing space under operating leases which, in addition to the minimum

lease payments, may require payment of a proportionate share of the real estate taxes and certain building operating

expenses. While the Company’s local market development approach generally results in long-term participation in given

markets, the retail store leases generally provide for an initial lease term of five to ten years. The Company’s office and

manufacturing leases provide for an initial lease term of up to fifteen years. In addition, the Company’s mall-based retail

store leases may require payment of variable rent based on net sales in excess of certain thresholds. Certain leases may

Table of Contents

SLEEP NUMBER CORPORATION

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(unaudited)

contain options to extend the term of the original lease. The exercise of lease renewal options is at the Company’s sole

discretion. Lease options are included in the lease term only if exercise is reasonably certain at lease commencement.

The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees. The Company also leases

vehicles and certain equipment under operating leases with an initial lease term of three to six years.

The Company’s operating lease costs include facility, vehicle and equipment lease costs, but exclude variable lease

costs. Operating lease costs are recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, after consideration of rent

escalations and rent holidays. The lease term for purposes of the calculation begins on the earlier of the lease

commencement date or the date the Company takes possession of the property. During lease renewal negotiations that

extend beyond the original lease term, the Company estimates straight-line rent expense based on current market

conditions. Variable lease costs are recorded when it is probable the cost has been incurred and the amount can be

reasonably estimated.

At September 28, 2024, the Company’s finance right-of-use assets and lease liabilities were not significant.

Lease costs were as follows (in thousands):


	Three Months Ended		Nine Months Ended
	September 28, 2024	September 30, 2023	September 28, 2024	September 30, 2023

Variable lease costs(2)	$42	$48	$1	$230

___________________________

(1)Includes short-term lease costs which are not significant.

(2)Variable lease costs include adjustments to percentage rent.

2024 (excluding the nine months ended September 28, 2024)	$26,997
2025	103,848
2026	91,716
2027	75,205
2028	63,060
2029	43,265
Thereafter	73,361
Total operating lease payments(2)	477,452
Less: Interest	76,299
Present value of operating lease liabilities	$401,153

___________________________

(1)Future payments for real estate taxes and certain building operating expenses for which the Company is obligated are not included in the operating

lease liabilities. Total operating lease payments exclude $17 million of legally binding minimum lease payments for leases signed but not yet

commenced.

(2)Includes the current portion of $82 million for operating lease liabilities.

Other information related to operating leases was as follows:


	September 28, 2024	December 30, 2023

million, respectively, of common stock in connection with the vesting of restricted stock grants. For the nine months

ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, we repurchased $0.7 million and $3.7 million, respectively, of

common stock in connection with the vesting of restricted stock grants. We made no purchases under the Board-

approved stock purchase plan in either period. As of September 28, 2024, the remaining authorization under the Board-

8. Revenue Recognition

Deferred contract assets and deferred contract liabilities are included in the condensed consolidated balance sheets as

follows (in thousands):


	September 28, 2024	December 30, 2023
Deferred contract assets included in:
Other current assets	$30,329	$28,567
Other non-current assets	50,981	54,795

Other current liabilities	$38,395	$36,421
Other non-current liabilities	63,594	69,098
	$101,989	$105,519

Deferred revenue and costs related to SleepIQ® technology are currently recognized on a straight-line basis over the

product's estimated life of 4.5 to 5.0 years because the Company’s inputs are generally expended evenly throughout the

performance period. During both the three months ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, the Company

recognized revenue of $10 million, that was included in the deferred contract liability balances at the beginning of the

respective periods. During both the nine months ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, the Company

recognized revenue of $28 million, that was included in the deferred contract liability balances at the beginning of the

respective periods.

Revenue from goods and services transferred to customers at a point in time accounted for approximately 98% of

revenues for both the three and nine months ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023.

amounts):


	Three Months Ended		Nine Months Ended
	September 28, 2024	September 30, 2023	September 28, 2024	September 30, 2023

For the three months ended September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, and for the nine months ended

September 28, 2024, otherwise dilutive stock-based awards have been excluded from the calculation of diluted

weighted-average shares outstanding, as their inclusion would have had an anti-dilutive effect on our net loss per diluted

share. Additional potential dilutive stock-based awards totaling 1.2 million and 1.1 million for the three months ended

September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively, and 1.3 million and 1.2 million for the nine months ended

September 28, 2024 and September 30, 2023, respectively, have been excluded from the diluted net (loss)/income per

share calculations because these stock-based awards were anti-dilutive.

12. Restructuring Costs

In the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company initiated cost reduction actions to reduce operating expenses and accelerate

gross margin initiatives, and recognized $15.7 million of restructuring costs in that quarter. In addition to the costs

incurred in 2023, the Company incurred an additional $2.0 million and $14.4 million of restructuring costs during the

three and nine months ended September 28, 2024, respectively. Charges incurred related to this initiative were

comprised of contract termination costs, severance and employee-related benefits, professional fees and other, and

asset impairment charges and are included in the restructuring costs line in the Company’s condensed consolidated

statement of operations. The Company expects an additional $2 million to $3 million of restructuring costs to be incurred

through the remainder of 2024, primarily due to lease contract termination costs. The following table provides a

summary of the Company’s restructuring costs during the during the three and nine months ended September 28, 2024:

Legal Proceedings

The Company is involved from time to time in various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of its business,

including primarily commercial, product liability, employment and intellectual property claims. In accordance with U.S.

generally accepted accounting principles, the Company records a liability in its condensed consolidated financial

statements with respect to any of these matters when it is both probable that a liability has been incurred and the

amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. If a material loss is reasonably possible but not known or probable,

and may be reasonably estimated, the estimated loss or range of loss is disclosed. With respect to currently pending

legal proceedings, the Company has not established an estimated range of reasonably possible material losses either

because it believes that is has valid defenses to claims asserted against it, the proceeding has not advanced to a stage of

discovery that would enable it to establish an estimate, or the potential loss is not material. The Company currently does

not expect the outcome of pending legal proceedings to have a material effect on its condensed consolidated results of

operations, financial position or cash flows. Litigation, however, is inherently unpredictable, and it is possible that the

ultimate outcome of one or more claims asserted against the Company could adversely impact its condensed

consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. The Company expenses legal costs as incurred.

Purported Class Action Complaint

On September 27, 2024, a purported customer served a putative class action complaint on behalf of themself and a

putative class of California consumers against Sleep Number in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of

California alleging that Sleep Number’s beds are perpetually on sale in violation of California law. The Plaintiff seeks

injunctive relief, damages, and attorneys fees. Sleep Number does not believe the Plaintiff’s claims have merit and

intends to vigorously defend this matter.

Purported Class Action Complaint

On December 15, 2023, a former Field Services team member filed a purported class action Complaint in the Superior

Court of California, County of Santa Clara, alleging violations of California’s meal and rest break law and additional wage

and hour derivative claims under the California Labor Code. While the representative plaintiff was in the Field Services

workforce, the Complaint does not limit the purported plaintiff class to that group, but rather extends to all non-exempt

Sleep Number employees in the state. The plaintiff alleges that Sleep Number failed to provide compliant meal or rest

breaks, failed to pay wages owed due to alleged off the clock work, failed to pay overtime, minimum wage and wages

due at termination, thus resulting in inaccurate wage statements, all in violation of California law. The Complaint seeks

damages in the form of unpaid regular and premium wages, statutory penalties, pre-judgment and post-judgment

interest, plaintiffs’ attorneys’ fees and costs. On February 22, 2024, the plaintiff filed a related lawsuit in the same county

alleging violations of a broad range of California Labor Code wage and hour violations under the state’s Private Attorney

General Act (PAGA), including the same meal and rest break, and wage and hour, violations as appear in the purported

class action.

The Court dismissed the class action complaint with prejudice. The Court sua sponte stayed the PAGA collective action

and the individual plaintiff must prove his claims in arbitration before the stay is lifted. Given the developments in these

proceedings, the matter no longer rises to the level of disclosure in Sleep Number’s periodic reports.

Shareholder Class Action Complaints

On December 14, 2021, purported Sleep Number shareholder, Steamfitters Local 449 Pension & Retirement Security

Funds (Steamfitters), filed a putative class action complaint in the United States District Court for the District of

Minnesota (the District of Minnesota) on behalf of all purchasers of Sleep Number common stock between February 18,

2021 and July 20, 2021, inclusive, against Sleep Number, Shelly Ibach and David Callen, the Company’s former

Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. Steamfitters alleges material misstatements and omissions in certain

of Sleep Number’s public disclosures during the purported class period, in violation of Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the

Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act). The complaint seeks, among other things, unspecified

monetary damages, reasonable costs and expenses and equitable/injunctive or other relief as deemed appropriate by

the District of Minnesota.

(unaudited)

On February 14, 2022, a second purported Sleep Number shareholder, Ricardo Dario Schammas, moved for

appointment as lead plaintiff in the action. On March 24, 2022, the District of Minnesota heard argument on Schammas’s

motion, and subsequently appointed Steamfitters and Schammas as Co-Lead Plaintiffs (together, Co-Lead Plaintiffs). On

July 19, 2022, Co-Lead Plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended complaint, which, like the predecessor complaint, asserts

claims against Sleep Number, Shelly Ibach, and David Callen under Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act. Co-

Lead Plaintiffs purport to assert these claims on behalf of all purchasers of Sleep Number common stock between

February 18, 2021 and July 20, 2021. On September 19, 2022, Defendants moved to dismiss the consolidated amended

complaint, which motion was heard by the Court on January 17, 2023. On July 10, 2023, the Court issued an order

dismissing the Plaintiffs’ consolidated amended complaint with prejudice.

Shareholder Derivative Complaint

On May 12, 2022, Gwendolyn Calla Moore, as the appointed representative of purported Sleep Number shareholder

Matthew Gelb, filed a derivative action (the Derivative Action) in the District of Minnesota against Jean-Michel Valette,

Shelly Ibach, Barbara Matas, Brenda Lauderback, Daniel Alegre, Deborah Kilpatrick, Julie Howard, Kathleen Nedorostek,

Michael Harrison, Stephen Gulis, Jr., David Callen, and Kevin Brown. Moore purports to assert claims on behalf of Sleep

Number for breaches of fiduciary duty, waste, and contribution under Sections 10(b) and 21(d) of the Exchange Act.

Moore’s allegations generally mirror those asserted in the securities complaint described above. The Moore complaint

seeks damages in an unspecified amount, disgorgement, interest, and costs and expenses, including attorneys’ and

experts’ fees.

On September 13, 2022, the District of Minnesota entered a joint stipulation staying all proceedings in the Derivative

Action pending the outcome of any motion to dismiss the Steamfitters consolidated amended complaint. On July 10,

2023, the District of Minnesota in the Steamfitters case dismissed the consolidated amended complaint with prejudice,

as noted above. The Plaintiff in the Derivative Action subsequently moved the Court to voluntarily dismiss its Complaint

and on January 22, 2024, the District of Minnesota dismissed the Derivative Action without prejudice.

Stockholder Demand

On March 25, 2022, Sleep Number received a shareholder litigation demand (the “Demand”), requesting that the Board

investigate the allegations in the Steamfitters complaint and pursue claims on Sleep Number’s behalf based on those

allegations. On May 12, 2022, the Board established a special litigation committee to investigate the demand.

On October 5 and October 12, 2022, Sleep Number received two additional shareholder litigation demands, which

adopted and incorporated the allegations and requests in the Demand. Both of these additional litigation demands were

referred to the special litigation committee.

Subsequently, the special litigation committee determined that it would not be in the best interests of the Company and

its shareholders to take the actions requested in the demands and, thus, rejected the demands in their entirety.

Results of Operations

Quarterly and Year-to-Date Results

Quarterly and year-to-date operating results may fluctuate significantly as a result of a variety of factors, including

increases or decreases in sales, timing, amount and effectiveness of advertising expenditures, changes in sales return

rates or warranty experience, timing of investments in growth initiatives and infrastructure, timing of store openings/

closings and related expenses, changes in net sales resulting from changes in the Company’s store base, timing of new

product introductions and related expenses, timing of promotional offerings, competitive factors, changes in commodity

costs, disruptions in global supplies or third-party service providers, seasonality of retail and bedding industry sales,

consumer sentiment and general economic conditions. The extent to which these external factors will impact the

Company’s business and its consolidated financial results will depend on future developments, which are highly

uncertain and cannot be predicted. Therefore, the historical results of operations may not be indicative of the results that

may be achieved for any future period.

Highlights

Financial highlights for the three months ended September 28, 2024 were as follows:

•Net sales for the three months ended September 28, 2024 of $427 million decreased 10% from $473 million for the

same period one year ago due to the ongoing weakness in the mattress industry and consumers continuing to

scrutinize their spending.

•The net sales change resulted from a 9% comparable sales decrease in Total Retail. For additional details, see the

components of total net sales change on page 19.

•Average sales per store (sales for stores open at least one year, Total Retail, including online, phone and chat) on a

trailing twelve-month basis for the period ended September 28, 2024 totaled $2.7 million, compared with $3.0

million for the same period last year.

•Operating income for the three months ended September 28, 2024 was $8 million, compared with $5 million in the

prior-year period. The $3 million increase in operating income was driven by a $15 million reduction in operating

expenses and a 3.4 ppt. increase in the gross profit rate, offset by lower net sales. Operating expenses for the three

months ended September 28, 2024 included $2 million of restructuring costs.

•Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended September 28, 2024 was $28 million, compared to $25 million in the

prior-year period as ongoing gross margin improvements and cost reduction actions partially offset the year-over-

year net sales decline.

•Gross profit rate of 60.8% was 3.4 ppt. higher than the prior-year period. The increase was primarily due to year-

over-year product cost reductions through value engineering and ongoing supplier negotiations and favorable

product mix. See the gross profit discussion on page 20 for additional details.

•The $15 million year-over-year reduction in the Company’s operating expenses was due to lower sales and

marketing and research and development expenses, partly offset by $2 million of restructuring costs.

•Net loss for the three months ended September 28, 2024 was $3 million, compared with a net loss of $2 million for

the same period one year ago. Net loss per diluted share was $0.14, compared with a net loss per diluted share of

$0.10 for the comparable period one year ago.

•The Company’s adjusted return on invested capital (Adjusted ROIC) was 4.5% on a trailing twelve-month basis for

the period ended September 28, 2024, compared with 14.9% for the comparable period one year ago.

•The Company generated $51 million in cash from operating activities for the nine months ended September 28,

2024, compared with $32 million for the same period one year ago.

•Free cash flow provided $34 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2024, compared with using $16

million for the same period one year ago.

•As of September 28, 2024, the Company had $517 million of borrowings under its revolving credit facility.

Comparison of Three Months Ended September 28, 2024 with Three Months Ended September 30, 2023

Net sales

Net sales for the three months ended September 28, 2024 of $427 million decreased 10% from $473 million for the

same period one year ago due to the ongoing weakness in the mattress industry and consumers continuing to scrutinize

their spending.

The net sales change consisted primarily of an 9% comparable sales decrease in Total Retail.

The $46 million net sales decrease compared with the same period one year ago was comprised of the following: (i) a

$27 million decrease in Retail comparable net sales; (ii) a $12 million decrease from online, phone and chat; and (iii) a $7

million decrease from net store closings and other. Total Retail smart bed unit sales decreased 12% compared with the

prior year. Total Retail average revenue per smart bed unit increased by 2% to $5,771, compared with $5,640 in the

prior-year period.

Gross profit

Gross profit of $260 million for the three months ended September 28, 2024 decreased by $12 million, or 4%, compared

with $271 million for the same period one year ago. The gross profit rate increased to 60.8% of net sales for the three

months ended September 28, 2024, compared with 57.4% for the prior-year comparable period.

The current-year gross profit rate increase of 3.4 ppt. was mainly due to: (i) year-over-year product cost reductions

through value engineering and ongoing supplier negotiations, increased the rate by 1.7 ppt; (ii) a favorable product mix,

increased the rate by 1.0 ppt; (iii) and efficiency gains in our home delivery and logistics operations, increased the rate by

0.7 ppt. In addition, the gross profit rate may fluctuate from quarter to quarter due to a variety of other factors, including

changes in warranty expenses, return and exchange costs, manufacturing and supply chain operations and performance-

based incentive compensation.

Sales and marketing expenses

Sales and marketing expenses for the three months ended September 28, 2024 were $205 million, or 48.2% of net sales,

compared with $221 million, or 46.8% of net sales, for the same period one year ago. The current-year sales and

marketing expenses rate increase of 1.4 ppt. was primarily due to the deleveraging impact of an 10% net sales decline

offset by a 7% decrease in expenses including a 4% lower media spend.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative (G&A) expenses totaled $33 million, or 7.8% of net sales, for the three months ended

September 28, 2024, compared with $32 million, or 6.8% of net sales, in the prior-year period. The $1 million increase in

G&A expenses consisted mainly of: (i) a $1.9 million year-over-year increase in company-wide, performance-based

incentive compensation; offset by (ii) a $0.6 million decrease in employee compensation on lower headcount; and (iii) a

$0.2 million decrease in other miscellaneous expenses. The G&A expenses rate increased by 1.0 ppt. in the current-year

period, compared with the same period one year ago due to the items discussed above offset by the deleveraging

impact of lower net sales.

Research and development expenses

Research and development (R&D) expenses decreased to $11 million for the three months ended September 28, 2024,

compared with $13 million with the same period last year primarily due to lower headcount and outside services. While

the Company’s consumer innovation pipeline remains robust, it is re-prioritizing R&D resources in this highly constrained

environment.

Interest expense, net

Interest expense, net increased to $12 million for the three months ended September 28, 2024, compared with $11

million for the same period one year ago. The $1 million increase was mainly driven by a higher weighted-average

interest rate compared with the same period one year ago.

Restructuring Costs

In the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company initiated cost reduction actions to reduce operating expenses and accelerate

gross margin initiatives, and recognized $15.7 million of restructuring costs in that quarter. In addition to the costs

incurred in 2023, the Company incurred an additional $2.0 million and $14.4 million of restructuring costs during the

three and nine months ended September 28, 2024, respectively. Charges incurred related to this initiative were

comprised of contract termination costs, severance and employee-related benefits, professional fees and other, and

asset impairment charges and are included in the restructuring costs line in the Company’s consolidated statement of

operations. The Company expects an additional $2 million to $3 million of restructuring costs to be incurred through the

remainder of 2024, primarily due to lease contract termination costs.

Income tax (benefit) expense

Income tax benefit totaled $0.5 million for the three months ended September 28, 2024, compared with income tax

benefit of $3 million for the same period last year. The change in income tax benefit was primarily due to the impact of

the loss before income tax levels.

Comparison of Nine Months Ended September 28, 2024 with Nine Months Ended September 30, 2023

Net sales

Net sales for the nine months ended September 28, 2024 decreased by $152 million, or 10%, to $1.3 billion, compared

with $1.5 billion for the same period one year ago due to the ongoing weakness in the mattress industry and consumers

continuing to scrutinize their spending.

The net sales decrease consisted primarily of an 10% comparable sales decrease in Total Retail. For additional details,

see the components of total net sales change on page 19.

The $152 million net sales decrease compared with the same period one year ago was comprised of the following: (i) an

$112 million decrease in Retail comparable net sales; (ii) a $31 million decrease in online, phone and other sales; and (iii)

a $9 million decrease resulting from net store closings. Total smart bed unit sales declined 10% compared with the same

period one year ago. Average revenue per smart bed unit in Total Retail decreased by 1% to $5,778, compared with

$5,822 in the prior-year period.

Gross profit

Gross profit of $777 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2024 decreased by $68 million, or 8%, compared

with $846 million for the same period one year ago. The gross profit rate increased to 59.5% of net sales for the nine

months ended September 28, 2024, compared to 58.0% in the prior-year comparable period.

The current-year gross profit rate increase of 1.5 ppt. was impacted by: (i) year-over-year product cost reductions

through value engineering and ongoing supplier negotiations, increased the rate by 1.1 ppt (ii) favorable pricing actions

taken over the last twelve months increased the rate by 1.0 ppt; (iii) efficiency gains in home delivery and logistics

operations, increased the rate by 0.7 ppt; partially offset by (iv) product mix of FlexFit smart adjustable bases, which

pressured the rate by 1.0 ppt; and (v) lower delivered smart bed volume deleveraged the rate by 0.2 ppt. In addition, the

gross profit rate may fluctuate from quarter to quarter due to a variety of other factors, including changes in warranty

expenses, manufacturing and supply chain operations and performance-based incentive compensation.

Sales and marketing expenses

Sales and marketing expenses for the nine months ended September 28, 2024 were $596 million, or 45.7% of net sales,

compared with $649 million, or 44.5% of net sales, for the same period one year ago. The current-year sales and

marketing expenses rate increase of 1.2 ppt. was primarily due to deleveraging impact of a 10% net sales decline offset

by a 8% decrease in expenses including 6% lower media spend.

General and administrative expenses

General and administrative (G&A) expenses totaled $112 million, or 8.6% of net sales, for the nine months

ended September 28, 2024, compared with $111 million, or 7.6% of net sales, in the prior-year period. The $1

million increase in G&A expenses consisted of: (i) a $2.6 million year-over-year increase in company-wide, performance-

based incentive compensation; (ii) a $0.8 million increase in technology investments; (iii) an increase in miscellaneous

other expenses of $3.1 million, which benefited during the same period one year ago from legal and insurance

settlements of $1.8 million; largely offset by (iv) a $4.4 million reduction in employee compensation on lower headcount;

and (v) a $1.1 million decrease in other occupancy expenses. The G&A expenses rate increased by 1.0 ppt. in the

current-year period, compared with the same period one year ago due to the deleveraging impact of the 10% net sales

decrease.

Research and development expenses

Research and development (R&D) expenses decreased by 19% to $35 million for the nine months ended September 28,

2024, compared with $43 million for the same period one year ago on lower outside services and headcount. While the

Company’s consumer innovation pipeline remains robust, it is re-prioritizing R&D resources in this highly constrained

environment.

Interest expense, net

Interest expense, net increased to $37 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2024, compared with $30

million for the same period one year ago. The $7 million increase was mainly driven by a higher weighted-average

interest rate compared with the same period one year ago.

Restructuring Costs

In the fourth quarter of 2023, the Company initiated cost reduction actions to reduce operating expenses and accelerate

gross margin initiatives, and recognized $15.7 million of restructuring costs in that quarter. In addition to the costs

incurred in 2023, the Company incurred $14.4 million of restructuring costs in the first nine months of 2024. Charges

incurred related to this initiative were comprised of contract termination costs, severance and employee-related benefits,

professional fees and other, and asset impairment charges and are included in the restructuring costs line in the

Company’s consolidated statement of operations. The Company expects an additional $2 million to $3 million of

restructuring costs to be incurred through the remainder of 2024, primarily due to lease contract termination costs.

Income tax (benefit) expense

Income tax benefit totaled $0.9 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2024, compared with income tax

expense of $3 million last year. The change in income tax expense was primarily due to the change in (loss) income

before income taxes levels and the impact of discrete tax expenses. Discrete tax expense, primarily stock-based

compensation tax shortfalls, was $2.6 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2024, compared to $1.1 million

for the same period last year.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Managing liquidity and capital resources is an important part of the Company’s commitment to deliver superior

shareholder value over time.

The Company’s primary sources of liquidity are cash flows provided by operating activities and cash available under its

$680 million revolving credit facility, as amended. As of September 28, 2024, the Company does not have any off-

balance sheet financing other than its $7 million in outstanding letters of credit. The cash generated from ongoing

operations and cash available under the revolving credit facility are expected to be adequate to maintain operations,

and fund anticipated expansion, strategic initiatives and contractual obligations such as lease payments and capital

commitments for new retail stores for the foreseeable future.

Cash and cash equivalents totaled $1.6 million and $2.5 million at September 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023,

respectively. Significant changes in cash and cash equivalents during the nine months ended September 28, 2024

primarily consisted of $51 million of cash provided by operating activities, offset by a $31 million decrease in short-term


23 \| 3Q 2024 FORM 10-Q		SLEEP NUMBER CORPORATION

borrowings, $17 million of cash used to purchase property and equipment, and $3 million of cash used to issue notes

receivable.

The following table summarizes cash flows (in millions). Amounts may not add due to rounding differences:


	Nine Months Ended

Net cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 28, 2024 was $51 million, compared

with $32 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. Significant components of the year-over-year change in

cash provided by operating activities included: (i) a $25 million fluctuation in inventory due to lower sales volumes and

operational improvements; (ii) a $22 million fluctuation in customer prepayments; and (iii) a $8 million fluctuation in

accrued compensation and benefits; partially offset by (iii) a $26 million decrease in net income for the nine months

ended September 28, 2024 compared with the nine months ended September 30, 2023; and (iv) a $9 million fluctuation

in other accruals and liabilities.

Net cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 28, 2024 was $20 million, compared with $49

Net cash used in financing activities was $32 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2024, compared with net

cash provided by financing activities of $17 million for the same period last year. Short-term borrowings decreased by

$31 million during the current-year period due to a $23 million decrease in borrowings under the revolving credit facility

to $517 million and a $8 million decrease in book overdrafts, which are included in the net change in short-term

borrowings. During the nine months ended September 28, 2024, the Company repurchased $1 million of its stock

compared with $4 million (based on settlement dates, in connection with the vesting of employee restricted stock

awards) during the same period one year ago. The Company made no share repurchases under its Board-approved

share repurchase program in either period.

In the second quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company suspended share repurchases under its Board-approved share

repurchase program. At September 28, 2024, there was $348 million remaining authorization under the Board-approved

$600 million share repurchase program. There is no expiration date governing the period over which the Company can

repurchase shares.

At September 28, 2024, the Company had $517 million of borrowings under its revolving credit facility, $7 million in

outstanding letters of credit and net liquidity available under the credit facility of $156 million. Total availability under its

revolving credit facility was $680 million, which amortizes by $2.5 million per quarter through December 2026. At

September 28, 2024, the Company’s leverage ratio as defined in the credit agreement was 4.2x versus the permissible

net leverage ratio of 5.0x, the weighted-average interest rate on borrowings under the credit facility was 8.2% and the

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company is exposed to changes in market-based short-term interest rates that will impact net interest expense. If

overall interest rates were one percentage point higher than current rates, annual net income would decrease by

$4.2 million based on the $517 million of borrowings under the credit facility at September 28, 2024. The Company does

not manage the interest-rate volatility risk of borrowings under the credit facility through the use of derivative

instruments.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Conclusions Regarding the Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e), that are

designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under

the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time

periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms, and that such information is

accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive officer and principal

financial officer, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required

disclosure. The Company’s management, with the participation of its principal executive officer and principal financial

officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as

of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report. Based on this evaluation, its principal executive officer and

principal financial officer concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end

of the period covered by this quarterly report.

Changes in Internal Control

There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended

September 28, 2024, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal

control over financial reporting.

Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Sep. 28, 2024
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Business & Basis of Presentation The Company prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 28, 2024 of Sleep Number Corporation and its 100%-owned subsidiaries (Sleep Number or the Company), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and they reflect, in the opinion of management, all normal recurring adjustments, including the elimination of all significant intra-entity balances and transactions, necessary to present fairly its financial position as of September 28, 2024 and December 30, 2023, and the consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The historical and quarterly consolidated results of operations may not be indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full year or any future period. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the most recent audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2023 and other recent filings with the SEC. The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements, and the reported amounts of sales, expenses and income taxes during the reporting period. Predicting future events is inherently an imprecise activity and, as such, requires the use of judgment. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from these estimates. Changes in these estimates will be reflected in the consolidated financial statements in future periods and could be material. The Company’s critical accounting policies consist of stock-based compensation, warranty liabilities and revenue recognition. Income Taxes Income tax benefit totaled $0.9 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2024, compared with income tax expense of $3 million last year. The change in income tax expense was primarily due to the change in (loss) income before income taxes levels and the impact of discrete tax expenses. Discrete tax expense, primarily stock-based compensation tax shortfalls, was $2.6 million for the nine months ended September 28, 2024, compared to $1.1 million for the same period last year. Recent Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted Segment Reporting (Topic 280) In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued guidance within Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. This ASU requires that a public entity that has a single reportable segment provide all the disclosures required by the amendments in this ASU and all existing disclosures in Topic 280. The Company has determined that its current business and operations consist of a single business segment and a single reporting unit. The amendments in this ASU are intended to improve segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. The key amendments included in this ASU: •Require disclosure on an annual and interim basis, of significant segment expenses that are regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker (CODM) and are included within each reported measure of segment profit and loss. •Require disclosure on an annual and interim basis, an amount for other segment items (defined in this ASU) and a description of its composition. •Clarify that if the CODM uses more than one measure of the segment’s profit or loss in assessing performance, one or more of those additional measures may be reported. •Require disclosure of the title and position of the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measure(s) of segment profit or loss in assessing performance. This ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. This guidance is required to be adopted by the Company beginning with the annual period of 2024. The amendments should be applied retrospectively to all prior periods presented in the consolidated financial statements. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this ASU on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. Currently, management does not believe that any other recently issued, but not yet effective accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material impact on the Company’s unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements.
