Sleep Number Announces Fourth-Quarter and Full-Year 2021 Results

  • Fourth-quarter demand increased high-single digits over prior-year demand (adjusted for extra fiscal week last year); a late receipt of semiconductor components from a large global supplier delayed more than $125 million of delivered net sales
  • Full-year net sales grew to a record $2.18 billion with full-year diluted earnings per share (EPS) of $6.16
  • Generated record operating cash flows of $300 million for the year and full-year ROIC of 27.6%
  • Provides 2022 outlook for a 10-15% increase in diluted EPS versus 2021, including constrained first quarter

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

“Strong demand for Sleep Number’s 360 smart beds again drove record earnings in 2021, even with pandemic-induced global supply chain disruptions,” said Shelly Ibach, President and CEO. “The fourth quarter proved to be the most challenging as we received semiconductor components too late in December to fulfill our planned deliveries. Global electronics supplies remain constrained in the near-term, while demand for our 360 smart beds remains strong, reflecting increased consumer engagement and referrals from more than two million connected smart sleepers. We continue to focus on delivering long-term stakeholder value to build upon our 5-year EPS CAGR of 41% through 2021.”

Fourth Quarter Overview

  • Net sales decreased 13% to $492 million (-7% adjusted); with a late December receipt of semiconductor components constraining delivered net sales by more than $125 million (about two and half weeks of deliveries)
  • Diluted EPS of $0.47 for the fourth quarter, compared to $2.19 for the same period last year, or $1.89 excluding the 53rd week
  • Fiscal 2020 included a 53rd week in the fourth quarter, which we estimate added approximately $41 million in net sales, $11.2 million in operating income and $0.30 of diluted EPS

Full Year Overview

  • Net sales increased 18% (+20% adjusted) to $2.18 billion in 2021, including a 17% comparable sales gain; up 29% compared to 2019
  • Gross profit increased 14% (+17% adjusted) to $1.32 billion, or 60.4% of net sales, while offsetting significant input cost increases with pricing actions and efficiency gains; up 25% compared to 2019
  • Operating income increased 5% (+11% adjusted) to $194 million; up 73% compared to 2019
  • Diluted EPS increased 26% (+34% adjusted) to a record $6.16; up 128% compared to 2019

Cash Flows and Liquidity Review

  • Generated $300 million in net cash from operating activities, up 7% versus last year and 59% higher than 2019
  • Invested $67 million in capital expenditures and repurchased $364 million of Sleep Number stock during 2021
  • Leverage ratio of 2.6x EBITDAR at the end of 2021
  • Return on invested capital (ROIC) of 27.6% for the year, up 260 bp versus prior year and nearly four times our weighted-average cost of capital

Financial Outlook

The company expects full-year 2022 diluted EPS to increase 10 to 15% versus 2021. The outlook for 2022 assumes continued global electronics supply constraints with the greatest impact expected in the first quarter. Accordingly, the 2022 outlook assumes first quarter EPS of 30 to 40 cents with EPS growth of approximately 80% expected for the last nine months of the year. The company anticipates 2022 capital expenditures of $70 million to $80 million.

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 24.2% and 23.5% for 2021 and 2020, 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.
