Item 2.02

Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On October 31, 2022, Leggett & Platt, Incorporated issued a press release announcing its financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2022 and related matters. 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 (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. This information shall not be incorporated by reference into any document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

On November 1, 2022, the Company will hold an investor conference call to discuss its third quarter results, earnings guidance, market conditions and related matters.

The press release contains the Company (i) Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months) ratio; (ii) Adjusted EPS; (iii) Adjusted EBIT; (iv) Adjusted EBIT Margin; (v) EBITDA; (vi) EBITDA Margin; (vii) Adjusted EBITDA; (viii) Adjusted EBITDA Margin; (ix) Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months); and (x) Organic Sales.

The press release also contains certain Segments’ (i) Adjusted EBIT; (ii) Adjusted EBIT Margin; (iii) EBITDA; (iv) EBITDA Margin; and (v) change in Organic Sales.

Company management believes the presentation of Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months) provides investors a useful way to assess the time it would take the Company to pay off its debt, ignoring various factors including interest and taxes. Management uses this ratio as supplemental information to assess its ability to pay off its incurred debt. Because we may not be able to use our earnings to reduce our debt on a dollar-for-dollar basis, the presentation of Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months) may have material limitations.

Company management believes the presentation of Company Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT Margin, EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months), and Segment Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT Margin, EBITDA and EBITDA Margin is useful to investors in that it aids investors’ understanding of underlying operational profitability. Management uses these non-GAAP measures as supplemental information to assess the Company’s operational performance.

Organic Sales is calculated as trade sales excluding sales attributable to acquisitions and divestitures consummated within the last twelve months. Company management believes the presentation of Organic Sales, or change in Organic Sales, is useful to investors, and is used by management, as supplemental information to analyze our underlying sales performance from period to period in our legacy businesses.

The above non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should not be considered a substitute for, or more meaningful than, their GAAP counterparts. For non-GAAP reconciliations, please refer to pages 6 and 7 of the press release.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: OCTOBER 31, 2022

LEGGETT & PLATT REPORTS 3Q RESULTS

Carthage, MO, October 31, 2022 ---

 

 

3Q sales were $1.29 billion, a 2% decrease vs 3Q21

 

 

3Q EBIT of $113 million, down $31 million vs 3Q21

 

 

3Q EPS of $.52, a decrease of $.19 vs 3Q21

 

 

2022 guidance unchanged from October 10 announcement: sales of $5.1–$5.2 billion; EPS of $2.30–$2.45

Diversified manufacturer Leggett & Platt reported third quarter sales of $1.29 billion, a 2% decrease versus third quarter last year.

 

 

Organic sales1 were down 3%

 

   

Volume was down 8%, primarily from continued demand softness in residential end markets, partially offset by growth in automotive and industrial end markets

 

   

Raw material-related selling price increases added 8% to sales

 

   

Currency impact decreased sales 3%

 

 

Previously announced Hydraulic Cylinders and Textile acquisitions completed in August, net of small divestitures, added 1% to sales

Third quarter EBIT was $113 million, down $31 million from third quarter 2021.

 

 

EBIT decreased primarily from lower volume, lower overhead absorption from reduced production, and operational inefficiencies in Specialty Foam, partially offset by metal margin expansion

 

 

EBIT margin was 8.7%, down from 10.9% in the third quarter of 2021

Third quarter EPS was $.52. EPS decreased $.19 versus third quarter 2021 primarily reflecting lower EBIT.

CEO COMMENTS

President and CEO Mitch Dolloff commented, “The current global economic environment and its effect on the consumer negatively impacted our third quarter results. As anticipated, we continue to experience demand and margin recovery in our Specialized Products segment. The U.S. bedding market remains fairly stable but at relatively weak levels, and we began to see slowing in other markets such as European bedding, home furniture, work furniture, and steel. As a result of these lower demand levels and the increasingly challenging macroeconomic environment, we lowered our full year guidance on October 10th.

“Third quarter earnings per share were slightly better than expected primarily due to incentive compensation adjustments. At the midpoint of guidance, fourth quarter is now expected to be slightly lower than third quarter primarily due to further reductions in steel rod production in response to the slowing steel market.

“We continue to focus on things we can control and are taking action to mitigate the impact of these challenges by aligning costs, production levels, and inventory with demand; evaluating near-term opportunities with our customers and working with them on new product developments; and continuing to build out our existing businesses through acquisitions. Our strong balance sheet and cash flow give us confidence in our ability to navigate challenging markets while investing in long-term opportunities.”

Net Debt2 was 2.63x trailing 12-month adjusted EBITDA2

 

 

Operating cash flow was $65 million in the third quarter, an increase of $15 million versus third quarter 2021, reflecting a smaller use of working capital partially offset by lower earnings

 

 

Capital expenditures were $25 million

 

 

Total liquidity was $1.0 billion

In August, Leggett & Platt’s Board of Directors declared a $.44 per share third quarter dividend, two cents higher than last year’s third quarter dividend
