SNBR - Sleep Number Announces Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2022 Results

  • Fourth quarter net sales increased 1% versus the prior year
  • Full year net sales decreased 3% to $2.11 billion, with full year diluted earnings per share (EPS) of $1.60
  • Generated $36 million of operating cash flows for the year and an Adjusted ROIC of 17.6%
  • Provides 2023 earnings outlook of $1.25 to $2.00 per diluted share

Sleep Number Corporation (Nasdaq: SNBR) today reported results for the year ended December 31, 2022.

“As we navigated a series of significant macro challenges in 2022, we achieved important strategic advancements that strengthen our sleep technology leadership. These advancements will position Sleep Number to capitalize on profitable growth opportunities when the consumer environment improves,” said Shelly Ibach, Chair, President and CEO. “Consumer response to our best innovation to date – the new Climate360 smart bed – has been strong, and we are excited to introduce our next-generation smart beds beginning in the second quarter. We are seeing improved demand trends early in the year, with the consistent flow of microchips supporting normalized delivery times for our smart beds and adjustable bases. I am grateful to our Sleep Number team for their resilience and commitment to our purpose of improving the health and wellbeing of society through higher quality sleep.”

Fourth Quarter Overview

  • Net sales were $498 million, up 1% compared with $492 million last year
  • Gross profit decreased 3% to $272 million, or 54.7% of net sales, compared with $280 million or 56.9% of net sales for the prior year
  • Net loss per diluted share of $0.24, compared to net income per diluted share of $0.47 last year

Full Year Overview

  • Net sales decreased 3% to $2.11 billion in 2022; full year demand declined 13% versus the prior year, partially offset by the delivery of excess backlog
  • Gross profit decreased 9% to $1.2 billion, or 56.9% of net sales, including the impact of year-over-year input cost increases and inefficiencies from semiconductor chip constraints, partially offset by pricing actions
  • Diluted EPS of $1.60, compared to $6.16 last year

Cash Flows and Liquidity Review

  • Generated $36 million in net cash from operating activities
  • Invested $69 million in capital expenditures; suspended share repurchases in the second quarter of 2022
  • Leverage ratio of 4.4x EBITDAR at the end of the fourth quarter versus covenant maximum of 5.0x; $359 million of liquidity remains against current credit facility
  • Adjusted return on invested capital (Adjusted ROIC) was 17.6% for the trailing twelve-month period

Financial Outlook

The company expects 2023 diluted EPS of $1.25 to $2.00. The 2023 outlook assumes net sales are flat to down mid-single digits versus the prior year. The outlook assumes gross margin rate improves by more than 150 basis points versus 2022. The company expects to generate over $100 million of operating cash flow for the year and positive free cash flows. The company anticipates 2023 capital expenditures of $50 million to $60 million and is planning no share repurchases during the year.

Adjusted ROIC is a financial measure we use to determine how efficiently we deploy our capital. It quantifies the return we earn on our adjusted invested capital. Management believes Adjusted ROIC is also a useful metric for investors and financial analysts. We compute Adjusted ROIC as outlined below. Our definition and calculation of Adjusted ROIC may not be comparable to similarly titled definitions and calculations used by other companies.
