SNBR - Sleep Number Announces Third Quarter 2022 Results

  • Third-quarter net sales declined 16% versus the prior year as expected on semiconductor chip supply constraints
  • Third-quarter diluted EPS of $0.22 ahead of expectation for breakeven profits
  • Revised 2022 EPS outlook to a range of $1.50 to $2.00 per diluted share due to constrained, uneven flow of chip supply and softer demand

Sleep Number Corporation (Nasdaq: SNBR) today reported results for the quarter ended October 1, 2022.

“We continue to navigate a very difficult environment, including persistent electronic chip inventory constraints and softer-than-expected consumer demand. We are aggressively pursuing actions to improve supply, margin, and demand,” said Shelly Ibach, Chair, President and CEO. “While the consumer is understandably cautious, our brand health remains very strong, and our customer loyalty is stellar. Guided by our purpose, we continue to develop life-changing sleep innovations, including this month’s introduction of our revolutionary Climate360™ smart bed, that position us to generate renewed demand growth. This new smart bed solves one of our consumer’s greatest sleep issues – temperature, while also capitalizing on future profitable growth opportunities in health and wellbeing.”

Third Quarter Overview

  • Net sales decreased 16% to $541 million, with demand decreasing 16% for the quarter, as consumer sentiment remains at historically low levels
  • Gross margin of 56.1% of net sales, reflecting expediting costs and operating inefficiencies resulting from the uneven flow of electronics supply
  • Diluted EPS of 22 cents, reflecting ongoing chip supply constraints and challenging macroenvironment

Cash Flows and Liquidity Review

  • Year-to-date net cash from operating activities of $80 million despite macroeconomic pressures
  • Invested $53 million in capital expenditures; suspended share repurchases (in the second quarter) until macroeconomic conditions improve
  • Leverage ratio of 3.99x EBITDAR at the end of the third quarter; $413 million of liquidity remains against current debt facility
  • Return on invested capital (ROIC) was 15.8% for the trailing twelve-month period

Financial Outlook
The company updated its full-year 2022 diluted EPS outlook to a range of $1.50 to $2.00 per share driven by insufficient and uneven flow of chip supply and softer demand. The outlook assumes flat net sales versus the prior year for the fourth quarter. The company anticipates 2022 capital expenditures of approximately $70 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. To access the webcast, please visit the investor relations area of the Sleep Number website at https://ir.sleepnumber.com . The webcast replay will remain available for approximately 60 days.

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:

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 22.7% and 24.1% for October 1, 2022 and October 2, 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. However, we are providing this information as we believe it facilitates analysis of the Company's financial performance by investors and financial analysts.
