Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.
On October 29, 2012, Leggett & Platt, Incorporated issued a press release announcing its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2012. 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, or incorporated by reference into any document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
On October 30, 2012, the Company will hold an investor conference call to discuss its third quarter financial results, annual guidance and related matters.
The press release contains the Company’s “net debt to net capitalization ratio.” Reconciliation of this non-GAAP financial measure to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is set forth in the press release. Company management believes the presentation of net debt to net capitalization provides investors a useful way to evaluate the Company’s debt leverage if the Company was to use its cash to pay down debt. The Company’s cash has fluctuated, sometimes significantly, from period to period. Management uses this ratio as supplemental information to track leverage trends across time periods with variable levels of cash. Net debt to net capitalization may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should not be considered a substitute for, or more meaningful than long-term debt to total capitalization. Because we may not be able to use our cash to reduce our debt on a dollar-for-dollar basis, the net debt to net capitalization ratio may have material limitations.
Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.
The information provided in Item 2.02, including Exhibit 99.1, is incorporated herein by reference.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: OCTOBER 29, 2012
LEGGETT & PLATT REPORTS RECORD THIRD QUARTER EPS OF $.45
Carthage, MO, October 29, 2012 —
| • | 3Q EPS was $.45, an increase of 45% compared to $.31 for 3Q of 2011 |
| • | 3Q sales were $982 million, compared to $941 million last year |
| • | 3Q EBIT margin increased to 10.7%, compared to 7.6% last year |
| • | 2012 EPS guidance is increased to $1.45—1.52, on sales of $3.70—3.75 billion |
| • | NOTE: Due to the storm, the conference call DIAL-IN NUMBER CHANGED to (404) 991-2747; conference ID is 59977476 |
Leggett & Platt reported third quarter EPS of $.45, compared to $.31 in last year’s third quarter. Third quarter sales were $982 million, a $41 million, or 4%, increase versus the prior year. Same location unit volumes increased 7%, but were partially offset by a 4% revenue decline caused largely by lower rod mill trade sales and changes in currency rates. Acquisitions, net of divestitures, increased sales by 1%.
Record Earnings
President and CEO David S. Haffner commented, “In the third quarter we set a new record of $.45 for EPS from continuing operations. Prior to 2012, that quarterly record was $.39, set in 2006. Importantly, we accomplished this milestone based upon strong operational performance as a result of higher volumes and margins, and without the benefit of unusual income items.
“As expected, we realized significant earnings leverage on higher unit volumes. Quarterly EBIT improved 47% versus last year as a result of unit volume growth, lower raw material costs in some business units, late-2011 restructuring activity, and the Western Tube acquisition. Third quarter EBIT margin increased from 7.6% last year to 10.7% for 2012. We are comfortable that, in 2012, we will set a new record for full year EPS from continuing operations. In addition, we are encouraged by improved consumer confidence and housing statistics, which bode well for longer term future demand.
“We continue to maintain a very strong financial base. Through the first three quarters, cash from operations was $241 million, a 19% increase versus last year. Net debt to net capital was 33% at quarter’s end, comfortably within our long-term 30%—40% target range. We issued $300 million of debt in August, and used the proceeds to repay commercial paper. At quarter’s end, we had nearly $600 million available under our existing commercial paper program and revolver facility.
“We continue to assess our overall performance by comparing our Total Shareholder Return (TSR1) to that of peer companies on a rolling three-year basis. For the three-year period that began January 1, 2010, we have so far (over the last 34 months) generated TSR of 42%, compared to TSR of 34% for the S&P 500 index. Our TSR performance ranks in the upper half of the S&P 500 companies, but is still a bit short of our goal to achieve TSR in the top one-third of the S&P 500 over the long-term.”

Dividends and Stock Repurchases
In August, Leggett & Platt’s Board of Directors increased the quarterly dividend by one penny to $.29, a 3.6% increase. Thus, 2012 marks the 41st consecutive annual dividend increase, with a 13% compound annual growth rate.
Notably, Leggett & Platt possesses the highest dividend yield among the S&P 500 Dividend Aristocrats with more than 30 consecutive annual dividend increases. Further, only 11 members of the S&P 500 have a longer string of consecutive annual dividend increases. At Friday’s closing share price of $25.40, the indicated annual dividend of $1.16 per share generates a dividend yield of 4.6%.
During the third quarter, the company repurchased 0.6 million shares of its stock, and issued 1.1 million shares to employees, largely as employees exercised stock options. So far this year, the company has purchased 1.0 million shares and issued 2.6 million shares; as a result, the number of shares outstanding has modestly increased to 141.0 million.
2012 Outlook
Leggett & Platt anticipates 2012 trade sales of approximately $3.70—3.75 billion, with 2012 EPS of $1.45 - 1.52. Full year guidance reflects significant EPS improvement over the prior four years, in which reported EPS was $.62, $.70, $1.15, and $1.04.
Fourth quarter sales are estimated at approximately $830—880 million, with EPS of $.25—.32. The anticipated decline in both sales and EPS versus third quarter is consistent with the company’s normal seasonality. This occurs primarily in the Commercial Segment, reflecting retailers’ curtailment of store fixture purchases during the holiday shopping season. In addition, both the Residential Furnishings and Industrial Materials segments also routinely experience seasonal declines during the fourth quarter.
Over the last few years, Leggett & Platt significantly reduced its fixed cost structure, but purposely retained spare production capacity. Accordingly, unit sales can rebound appreciably without the need for large capital investment. As a result, the company has meaningful operating leverage that should continue to benefit earnings as market demand rebounds.
For over 20 years the company has generated operating cash in excess of the amount needed to fund dividends and capital expenditures. That should again be true this year, with cash from operations expected to exceed $350 million. Capital expenditures should be approximately $80 million for the year, and dividend payments should approximate $160 million.
SEGMENT RESULTS – Third Quarter 2012 (versus the same period in 2011)
Residential Furnishings – Total sales increased $9 million, or 2%; unit volume increased 4%, but was partially offset by currency rate changes. EBIT (earnings before interest and income taxes) increased $6 million, or 19%, from unit volume growth and lower raw material costs in some businesses.
Commercial Fixturing & Components – Total sales increased $21 million, or 15%; same location sales increased 21%, but were partially offset by a decline attributable to a small divestiture. EBIT increased $13 million, or 187%, primarily due to higher sales, with a smaller benefit from cost improvements.
Industrial Materials – Total sales increased $1 million, or 1%. The Western acquisition increased sales by 9%; however, same location sales decreased 8%, primarily due to lower trade sales at the steel rod mill. EBIT improved by $8 million, or 65%, as a result of lower steel costs in some businesses, the Western acquisition, and last year’s restructuring activity.
Specialized Products – Total sales increased $3 million, or 2%; unit volume grew by 5%, but was partially offset by currency rate changes. EBIT improved $2 million, or 11%, largely due to higher sales.
