1. Business and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies


Business & Basis of Presentation


We prepared the condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017April 2, 2022 of Select ComfortSleep Number Corporation and our 100%-owned subsidiaries (Select Comfort(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 necessary to present fairly our financial position as of September 30, 2017April 2, 2022 and December 31, 2016,January 1, 2022, and the consolidated results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Our 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. In addition, based on the duration and severity of the current global situation involving the COVID-19 pandemic, the war in Ukraine and other external factors, including but not limited to general economic conditions, inflation, consumer confidence, store restrictions mandated by federal, state or local authorities and global supply chain disruptions, the extent to which these external factors will impact our business and our consolidated financial results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.


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 our most recent audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016January 1, 2022 and other recent filings with the SEC.


The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us 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. In addition, during the current environment involving external factors such as COVID-19 and the war in Ukraine, predicting future events will be especially challenging for management. Changes in these estimates will be reflected in the consolidated financial statements in future periods.periods and could be material. Our critical accounting policies consist of stock-based compensation, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, warranty liabilities and revenue recognition.


The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Select ComfortSleep Number Corporation and our 100%-owned subsidiaries. All significant intra-entity balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.


Revenue Recognition

At September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, we had deferred revenue totaling $71 million and $61 million, of which $28 million and $21 million are included in other current liabilities, respectively, and $43 million and $40 million are included in other non-current liabilities, respectively, in our consolidated balance sheets. We also have related deferred costs totaling $41 million and $33 million, of which $16 million and $11 million are included in other current assets, respectively, and $25 million and $22 million are included in other non-current assets, respectively, in our consolidated balance sheets. The deferred revenue and costs are recognized over the product’s estimated life of four years.

New Accounting Pronouncements
Adopted

In March 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued new guidance on the accounting for, and disclosure of, stock-based compensation which we adopted effective January 1, 2017. The new guidance is intended to simplify several aspects of the accounting for stock-based compensation arrangements, including the income tax impact, forfeitures and classification on the statement of cash flows. Under the previous guidance, excess tax benefits and deficiencies were recognized in additional paid-in capital in the consolidated balance sheets. Upon adoption of the new guidance, these excess tax benefits or deficiencies are required to be recognized as discrete adjustments to income tax expense in the consolidated statements of operations on a prospective basis. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, excess tax benefits of $0.2 million and $1.4 million, respectively, were recognized as a reduction of income tax expense, rather than in additional paid-in capital.

In addition, under the new guidance, excess income tax benefits from stock-based compensation arrangements are classified as an operating activity in the statement of cash flows rather than as a financing activity. This resulted in an increase to operating cash flows of $0.2 million and $2.3 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2017, respectively. We elected to apply the new cash flow classification guidance prospectively. The prior-year statement of cash flows has not been adjusted.

We have also elected to continue to estimate the number of stock-based awards expected to vest, as permitted by the new guidance, rather than electing to account for forfeitures as they occur.

Not Yet Adopted

In May 2014, the FASB issued a comprehensive new revenue recognition model that requires a company to recognize revenue in a manner that depicts the transfer of goods or services to a customer at an amount that reflects the consideration it expects to receive in exchange for those goods or services. This new guidance will be effective for us beginning January 1, 2018. Companies may use either a full retrospective or a modified retrospective approach to adopt this new guidance. When we adopt this new guidance, we expect to use the modified retrospective approach which will result in an adjustment to opening retained earnings, but would not restate prior periods' financial statements. Based on our analysis thus far, we believe the impact of adopting the new guidance will not be material to our consolidated financial statements. As interpretations of the new rules continue to evolve in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2017, we will monitor developments and will finalize our conclusions on our revenue recognition policy, disclosure requirements and changes that may be necessary to our internal controls over financial reporting.

In February 2016, the FASB issued new guidance on accounting for leases that generally requires most leases to be recognized on the balance sheet. This new guidance is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. The provisions of this new guidance are to be applied using a modified retrospective approach, with elective reliefs, which requires application of the new guidance for all periods presented. We are evaluating the effect of the new standard on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. This new guidance is effective for us beginning December 30, 2018.

2. Fair Value Measurements


At September 30, 2017April 2, 2022 and December 31, 2016,January 1, 2022, we had $3.4$18 million and $2.3$19 million, respectively, of debt and equity securities that fund our deferred compensation plan and are classified in other non-current assets. We also had corresponding deferred compensation plan liabilities of $3.4$18 million and $2.3$19 million at September 30, 2017April 2, 2022 and December 31, 2016,January 1, 2022, 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 us 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.

6. Leases

We lease our 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 our local market development approach generally results in long-term participation in given markets, our retail store leases generally provide for an initial lease term of five to 10 years. Our office and manufacturing leases provide for an initial lease term of up to 15 years. In addition, our mall-based retail store leases may require payment of variable rent based on net sales in excess of certain thresholds. Certain leases may contain options to extend the term of the original lease. The exercise of lease renewal options is at our sole discretion. Lease options are included in the lease term only if exercise is reasonably certain at lease commencement. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees. We also lease vehicles and certain equipment under operating leases with an initial lease term of three to five years.

Our 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 we take possession of the property. During lease renewal negotiations that extend beyond the original lease term, we estimate 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. Future payments for real estate taxes and certain building operating expenses for which we are obligated are not included in operating lease costs.

Legal Proceedings

We are involved from time to time in various legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of our business, including primarily commercial, product liability, employment and intellectual property claims. In accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, in the United States, we record a liability in our 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, we have not established an estimated range of reasonably possible additionalmaterial losses either because we believe that we have valid defenses to claims asserted against us, or the proceeding has not advanced to a stage of discovery that would enable us to establish an estimate.estimate, or the potential loss is not material. We currently do not expect the outcome of these matterspending legal proceedings to have a material effect on our 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 us could adversely impact our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. We expense legal costs as incurred.


On January 12, 2015, Plaintiffs David and Katina Spade commencedDecember 14, 2021, Steamfitters Local 449 Pension & Retirement Security Funds filed a purportedputative class action lawsuitcomplaint in New Jersey state court against Select Comfort alleging that Select Comfort violated New Jersey consumer statutes by failing to provide to purchasing consumers certain disclosures required by the New Jersey Furniture Regulations. It is undisputed that plaintiffs suffered no actual damages or in any way relied upon or were impacted by the alleged omissions. Nonetheless, on behalf of a purported class of New Jersey purchasers of Select Comfort beds and bases, plaintiffs seek to recover a $100 statutory fine for each alleged omission, along with attorneys’ fees and costs. Select Comfort removed the case to the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, which subsequently granted Select Comfort’s motion to dismiss. Plaintiffs appealed toMinnesota 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. Plaintiff alleges material misstatements and omissions in certain of Sleep Number’s public disclosures during the United States Courtpurported class period, in violation of Appeals forSection 10(b) and 20(a) of the Third Circuit, which has certified two questionsSecurities Exchange Act of law to1934, as amended. The complaint seeks, among other things, unspecified monetary damages, reasonable costs and expenses and equitable/injunctive or other relief as deemed appropriate by the New Jersey Supreme Court relating to whether plaintiffs who have suffered no actual injury may bring claims. The New Jersey Supreme Court has accepted the certified questions and oral argumentsCourt. We believe these claims are expected to be heard in the near future. As the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey determined, we believe that the case is without merit and intend to vigorously defend the ordermatter.

13. COVID-19 Pandemic

The COVID-19 pandemic impacted our 2021 and 2022 financial performance. In the first quarter of dismissal should be affirmed.2021, even with the COVID-19 challenges, we generated strong demand and financial performance. In the first quarter of 2022, our financial performance was impacted by: (i) the disruptive flow of semiconductor chips which affected our ability to deliver products to our customers and suppressed consumer confidence; (ii) incremental costs from labor and material inflation, and expediting costs resulting from current-period global supply chain shortages; and (iii) increased investments in our long- and near-term innovations and demand drivers, partly offset by cost containment actions. The pandemic's future effects on our global supply chain and the potential for supply disruption (e.g., the lack or slowing of critical components caused by labor shortages or government-mandated work closures), effects on consumer demand and effects on our ongoing financial performance remains uncertain. See Part II, Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and Part II: Item 1A.

COVID-19 Pandemic - Impact on our Business

The COVID-19 pandemic impacted our 2021 and 2022 financial performance. In the first quarter of 2021, even with the COVID-19 challenges, we generated strong demand and financial performance. In the first quarter of 2022, our financial performance was impacted by: (i) the disruptive flow of semiconductor chips which affected our ability to deliver products to our customers and suppressed consumer confidence; (ii) incremental costs from labor and material inflation, and expediting costs resulting from current-period global supply chain shortages; and (iii) increased investments we have made in R&D, technology, digitalour long- and near-term innovations and demand drivers, partly offset by cost containment actions. The pandemic's future effects on our store experience have strengthenedglobal supply chain and the potential for supply disruption (e.g., the lack or slowing of critical components caused by labor shortages or government-mandated work closures), effects on consumer demand and effects on our competitive advantagesongoing financial performance remains uncertain.

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, the 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 our store base, the timing of new product introductions theand related expenses, timing of promotional offerings, competitive factors, changes in commodity costs, any disruptions in global supplies or third-party service providers, seasonality of retail and bedding industry sales, consumer confidence and general economic conditions. In addition, based on the duration and severity of the current global situation involving the COVID-19 pandemic, the war in Ukraine and other external factors, including but not limited to general economic conditions, inflation, consumer confidence, store restrictions mandated by federal, state or local authorities and global supply chain disruptions, the extent to which these external factors will impact our business and our consolidated financial results will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. Therefore, our historical results of operations may not be indicative of the results that may be achieved for any future period.


Highlights

Financial highlights for the periodthree months ended September 30, 2017April 2, 2022 were as follows:

Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2017 increased 9%April 2, 2022 decreased 7% to $403$527 million, compared with $368$568 million for the three months ended April 3, 2021. Demand was negatively impacted by acute macro factors including the COVID-19 variant in January and the war in Ukraine in March. Global supply constraints continued to impact our delivered net sales for the three months ended April 2, 2022.
The 7% net sales decrease consisted of an 11% comparable sales decline in Total Retail offset by sales from 46 net new stores opened in the past 12 months that added 4 percentage points (ppt.) of growth. For additional details, see the components of total net sales change on page 15.
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 April 2, 2022 totaled $3.5 million, 9% higher than the same period last year.
Operating income for the three months ended April 2, 2022 was $4 million, compared with $76 million in the prior-year period. The $72 million decrease in operating income was driven by the 7% decrease in net sales constrained by semiconductor chip supply, a 7.3 ppt. increase in our operating expenses rate, and a 5.3 ppt. decrease in our gross profit rate that was negatively affected by cost pressures and an unfavorable mix of smart bed deliveries as constrained by semiconductor chip supply.
The 5.3 ppt. gross profit rate decrease was primarily due to incremental costs from labor and material inflation, and inefficiencies resulting from current-period global supply chain shortages, in addition to the deleveraging impact of the 7% net sales decline and a less favorable sales mix of lower-margin products. See the Gross profit discussion on page 17 for additional details.
The 7.3 ppt. increase in our operating expenses rate was partially due to the deleveraging impact of the 7% net sales decline. In addition, we continued to prioritize investments in near- and long-term growth drivers, including $16 million of R&D expenses during the three months ended April 2, 2022, 23% more than the same period one year ago.
Net income for the three months ended April 2, 2022 decreased to $2 million, compared with $67 million for the same period one year ago. Net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2017 were affected by: (i) an approximately $25 million shift in sales from our second quarter to our third quarter asincome per diluted share was $0.09, compared with $2.51 last year.
We achieved a resultreturn on invested capital (ROIC) of a delay in deliveries and shipments related to an inventory shortage from one of our new suppliers (this delay has been resolved and we don't expect a shortage in the future), and (ii) temporary disruptions from hurricanes during our Labor Day sales event that reduced third quarter net sales by an estimated $12 to $15 million.

The 9% sales increase was driven by 6 percentage points (ppt.) of growth from sales generated by 26 net new stores opened in the past 12 months and a 5% comparable sales increase in our Company-Controlled channel, partially offset by a decrease in our Wholesale/Other channel sales.
Sales per store (for stores open at least one year)20.5% on a trailing twelve-month basis for the period ended September 30, 2017 were $2.4 million, up 5% from $2.2 million in the prior-year comparable period.
In May 2017, we began selling our Sleep Number 360™ i7 and i10 smart beds. The Sleep Number 360 smart bed won 13 awards at CES, including being named the Best of Innovation Honoree in the Home Appliance category. We plan to launch a third smart bed model (the p6) in the fourth quarter, and remain on track to complete the phased implementation of our 360 smart bed line by the first half of next year.
Operating incomeApril 2, 2022, compared with 27.6% for the quarter totaled $39 million, consistent with the samecomparable period one year ago. Our operating income rate decreased to 9.7% of net sales, compared with 10.6% of net sales for the same period last year. The decrease in operating income rate primarily resulted from transition costs associated with the launch of our Sleep Number 360 smart beds and the evolution of our supply chain.
Net income for the quarter was $25.6 million, or $0.62 per diluted share, compared with $25.7 million, or $0.56 per diluted share, for the same period one year ago.
Cash provided by operating activities totaled $176 million for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2017,April 2, 2022 decreased to $25 million, compared with $145$112 million for the same period one year ago. Investing activities for the current-year period included $38
As of April 2, 2022, we had $413 million of property and equipment purchases, compared with $39 million for the same period last year.
At September 30, 2017, cash and cash equivalents totaled $30 million and we ended the quarter with no borrowings under our $153 million revolving credit facility. We utilize our credit facility to meet our seasonal working capital requirements.and available net liquidity of $406 million.
In the third quarter of 2017, we repurchased 1.3 million shares of our common stock under our Board-approved share repurchase program at a cost of $40 million (an average of $31.18 per share). Effective as of October 1, 2017, our Board approved an increase in our total remaining share repurchase authorization to $500 million.

The 0.8 ppt. increase in the sales and marketing expense rate was mainly due to an increase in customer financing expenses, as a larger percentage of our customers took advantage of promotional financing offers, and an increase in selling compensation expense, including performance-based incentive compensation. These increases were partially offset by leverage from media spending, which increased by 4% compared with the prior year, while net sales increased by 8%.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative (G&A) expenses totaled $95 million, or 8.8% of net sales, for the nine months ended September 30, 2017, compared with $86 million, or 8.6% of net sales, in the prior-year period. The $9 million increase in G&A expenses consisted primarily of the following: (i) a $4.0 million increase in employee compensation, including a year-over-year increase in company-wide performance-based incentive compensation, enhanced digital marketing capabilities, and salary and wage rate increases that were in line with inflation; (ii) $2.3 million of additional depreciation and amortization expense, including incremental depreciation expense from capital expenditures that support the growth of our business; and (iii) a $2.7 million net increase in miscellaneous other expenses. The G&A expense rate increased by 0.2 ppt. in the current-year period compared with the same period one year ago due to the increase in expenses discussed above, partially offset by the leveraging impact of the 8% sales increase.

Research and development expenses
Research and development (R&D) expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2017 were $21 million, or 1.9% of net sales, compared with $22 million, or 2.2% of net sales, for the same period one year ago. The $1 million decrease in R&D expensesincrease was due tomainly driven by a higher level of outstanding borrowings during the timing of our investments to support product innovations. The investment spending year-to-date is consistent with our current-year and long-term consumer innovation strategy.

Income tax expense
Income tax expense was $22 million for the ninethree months ended September 30, 2017,April 2, 2022 compared with $21 million forthe same period in 2021, and a higher weighted-average interest rate compared with the same period one year ago.

Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (Adjusted EBITDA)

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.

PART II: OTHER INFORMATION


ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We are involved from time to time in variousOur legal proceedings arisingare discussed in Note 12,Commitments and Contingencies, Legal Proceedings, in the ordinary course of our business, including primarily commercial, product liability, employment and intellectual property claims. In accordance with generally accepted accounting principlesNotes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in the United States, we record a liability in our 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. With respect to currently pending legal proceedings, we have not established an estimated range of reasonably possible additional losses either because we believe that we have valid defenses to claims asserted against us or the proceeding has not advanced to a stage of discovery that would enable us to establish an estimate. We currently do not expect the outcome of these matters to have a material effectthis Quarterly Report on our 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 us could adversely impact our consolidated results of operations, financial position or cash flows. We expense legal costs as incurred.Form 10-Q.


On January 12, 2015, Plaintiffs David and Katina Spade commenced a purported class action lawsuit in New Jersey state court against Select Comfort alleging that Select Comfort violated New Jersey consumer statutes by failing to provide to purchasing consumers certain disclosures required by the New Jersey Furniture Regulations. It is undisputed that plaintiffs suffered no actual damages or in any way relied upon or were impacted by the alleged omissions. Nonetheless, on behalf of a purported class of New Jersey purchasers of Select Comfort beds and bases, plaintiffs seek to recover a $100 statutory fine for each alleged omission, along with attorneys’ fees and costs. Select Comfort removed the case to the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, which subsequently granted Select Comfort’s motion to dismiss. Plaintiffs appealed to the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, which has certified two questions of law to the New Jersey Supreme Court relating to whether plaintiffs who have suffered no actual injury may bring claims. The New Jersey Supreme Court has accepted the certified questions and oral arguments are expected to be heard in the near future. As the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey determined, we believe that the case is without merit and the order of dismissal should be affirmed.

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

Our business, financial condition and operating results are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including both those that are specific to our business and others that affect all businesses operating in a global environment. Investors should carefully consider the information in this report under the heading, Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, and also the information under the heading, Risk Factors, in our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K. The risk factors discussed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K and in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q do not identify all risks that we face because our business operations could also be affected by additional risk factors that are not presently known to us or that we currently consider to be immaterial to our operations.
