On May 9, 2023, Tempur Sealy International, Inc. (the "Company") and Mattress Firm Group Inc. ("Mattress Firm") issued a joint press release announcing the execution of a definitive agreement (the "Merger Agreement") for a proposed business acquisition in which the Company, through a wholly-owned subsidiary, will acquire Mattress Firm. The Company also furnished an investor presentation (the "Investor Presentation") regarding the proposed transaction. The Investor Presentation will be used from time to time in meetings with investors. A copy of the press release and Investor Presentation are furnished hereto as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2.
The information furnished pursuant to this Item 7.01 (including Exhibits 99.1 and 99.2 hereto) shall not be deemed to be "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") or otherwise subject to the liability of that section and shall not be incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in any such filing.
Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report, including the information incorporated by reference herein, contains statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. Such statements might include information concerning the proposed transaction, our plans and other information that is not historical information.

These forward-looking statements are based upon our current expectations and beliefs and various assumptions. There can be no assurance that we will realize our expectations or that our beliefs will prove correct.
Important factors that could cause actual results and outcomes to differ materially from those indicated in the forward-looking statements include, among others, the following: (1) the occurrence of any event, change, or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement; (2) the institution or outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against the Company and/or Mattress Firm following the announcement of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein; (3) the inability of the parties to complete the proposed transaction, including due to failure to obtain certain regulatory approvals, or satisfy other conditions to closing in the Merger Agreement; (4) the ability to successfully integrate Mattress Firm into the Company's operations and realize synergies from the transaction; (5) the possibility that the expected benefits of the acquisition are not realized when expected or at all; (6) general economic, financial and industry conditions, particularly conditions relating to the financial performance and related credit issues present in the retail sector, as well as consumer confidence and the availability of consumer financing; (7) the impact of the macroeconomic environment in both the U.S. and internationally on Mattress Firm and the Company; (8) uncertainties arising from national and global events; industry competition; (9) the effects of consolidation of retailers on revenues and costs; (10) consumer acceptance and changes in demand for Mattress Firm's and the Company's products and (11) the failure to obtain debt financing or obtaining debt financing on terms that are materially unfavorable to the Company. Additional risk factors are discussed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022. There may be other factors that may cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements. The Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made.
