Business Segment Highlights

The Company's business segments include North America and International. Corporate operating expenses are not included in either of the business segments and are presented separately as a reconciling item to consolidated results.

North America net sales decreased 21.4% to $525.4 million from $668.2 million in the second quarter of 2016. On a constant currency basis((1)), North America net sales decreased 21.0% compared to the second quarter of 2016. Gross margin was 37.9% as compared to 40.0% in the second quarter of 2016. Operating margin was 10.6% as compared to 15.5% in the second quarter of 2016.

In the second quarter of 2017, net sales to Mattress Firm were $1.2 million prior to the termination of our contract at the beginning of the quarter. In the second quarter of 2016, net sales to Mattress Firm were $191.4 million. Excluding Mattress Firm, North America net sales increased 10% driven by growth across all of our brands.

North America gross margin declined 210 basis points as compared to the second quarter of 2016. This was driven primarily by fixed cost deleverage on lower unit volume and unfavorable brand mix. This was slightly offset by improved productivity across our operations, channel mix, and lower floor model discounts. North America operating margin declined 490 basis points as compared to the second quarter of 2016. The decline in operating margin was driven by the gross margin decline as well as unfavorable operating expense leverage, and increased investments in our brand advertising campaign.

International net sales decreased 1.7% to $133.9 million from $136.2 million in the second quarter of 2016. On a constant currency basis((1)), International net sales increased 1.6% compared to the second quarter of 2016. Gross margin was 52.1% as compared to 51.1% in the second quarter of 2016. Operating margin was 19.6% as compared to 17.0% in the second quarter 2016.

International gross margin increased 100 basis points as compared to the second quarter of 2016. The increase was primarily driven by favorable mix, which was partially offset by new product introductions. International operating margin increased 260 basis points as compared to the second quarter of 2016. The increase in operating margin was primarily driven by the improvement in gross margin, as well as, expense management, and improved performance in our Asia joint venture operations, which was offset by increased investments in our advertising.

Corporate operating expense decreased to $25.5 million from $26.3 million in the second quarter of 2016.

Balance Sheet

As of June 30, 2017, the Company reported $38.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and $1.9 billion in total debt, as compared to $65.7 million in cash and cash equivalents and $1.9 billion in total debt as of December 31, 2016.

Financial Guidance

The Company also today updated its financial guidance for 2017. For the full year 2017, the Company currently expects adjusted EBITDA((1)) to range from $425 million to $450 million.

The Company noted its expectations are based on information available at the time of this release, and are subject to changing conditions, many of which are outside the Company's control.

(1) This is a non-GAAP financial measure. Please refer to "Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Constant Currency Information" below.

The Company also noted that its 2017 outlook for adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes or has otherwise been adjusted for items impacting comparability. The Company further noted that it is unable to reconcile this forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure to GAAP net income, its most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measure, without unreasonable efforts, because the Company is currently unable to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the type and extent of certain items that would be expected to impact GAAP net income in 2017 but would not impact adjusted EBITDA. These items that impact comparability may include restructuring activities, the impact of the termination of contracts with Mattress Firm, foreign currency exchange rates, income taxes, and other items. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on the Company's full year 2017 GAAP financial results.

TEMPUR SEALY INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Measures
(in millions, except percentages, ratios and per common share amounts)

The Company provides information regarding adjusted net income, adjusted EPS, adjusted gross profit, adjusted gross margin, adjusted operating income (expense), adjusted operating margin, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, consolidated funded debt and consolidated funded debt less qualified cash, and free cash flow which are not recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be alternatives to net income and earnings per share as a measure of operating performance or an alternative to total debt. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures provide investors with performance measures that better reflect the Company's underlying operations and trends, including trends in changes in margin and operating expenses, providing a perspective not immediately apparent from net income and operating income. The adjustments management makes to derive the non-GAAP measures include adjustments to exclude items that may cause short-term fluctuations in the nearest GAAP measure, but which management does not consider to be the fundamental attributes or primary drivers of the Company's business, including costs associated with its 2013 acquisition of Sealy Corporation and its subsidiaries (the "Sealy Acquisition"), costs associated with the completion of the new credit facility ("2016 Credit Agreement") and senior notes offering in the second quarter of 2016, the exclusion of charges associated with the Mattress Firm termination in the first quarter of 2017 and other costs.

The Company believes that exclusion of these items assists in providing a more complete understanding of the Company's underlying results from continuing operations and trends, and management uses these measures along with the corresponding GAAP financial measures to manage the Company's business, to evaluate its consolidated and business segment performance compared to prior periods and the marketplace, to establish operational goals and to provide continuity to investors for comparability purposes. Limitations associated with the use of these non-GAAP measures include that these measures do not present all of the amounts associated with our results as determined in accordance with GAAP and these non-GAAP measures should be considered supplemental in nature and should not be construed as more significant than comparable measures defined by GAAP. Because not all companies use identical calculations, these presentations may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies. For more information about these non-GAAP measures and a reconciliation to the nearest GAAP measure, please refer to the reconciliations on the following pages.

Constant Currency Information

In this press release the Company refers to, and in other press releases and other communications with investors the Company may refer to, net sales or earnings or other historical financial information on a "constant currency basis," which is a non-GAAP financial measure. These references to constant currency basis do not include operational impacts that could result from fluctuations in foreign currency rates. To provide information on a constant currency basis, the applicable financial results are adjusted based on a simple mathematical model that translates current period results in local currency using the comparable prior corresponding period's currency conversion rate. This approach is used for countries where the functional currency is the local country currency. This information is provided so that certain financial results can be viewed without the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency rates, thereby facilitating period-to-period comparisons of business performance.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS

A reconciliation of GAAP net income to adjusted net income and a calculation of adjusted EPS is provided below. Management believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides investors with additional useful information with respect to the impact of various adjustments as described in the footnotes at the end of this release.

The following table sets forth the reconciliation of the Company's GAAP net income to adjusted net income and a calculation of adjusted EPS for the three months ended June 30, 2017 and 2016:

                (1)    In the first quarter of 2017, the
                        Company recorded $25.9 million of
                        net charges related to the
                        termination of the relationship with
                        Mattress Firm. Cost of sales
                        included $11.5 million of charges
                        related to the write-off of
                        customer-unique inventory and
                        product obligations. Operating
                        expenses included $14.4 million of
                        net charges, which included a write-
                        off of $17.2 million for customer
                        incentives and marketing assets,
                        $5.8 million of employee-related
                        costs and $0.7 million of
                        professional fees. These charges
                        were offset by $9.3 million of
                        benefit related to the change in
                        estimate associated with
                        performance-based stock
                        compensation that is no longer
                        probable of payout following the
                        Mattress Firm termination.

                (2)    Loss on extinguishment of debt
                        represents costs associated with the
                        completion of a credit facility and
                        senior notes offering in the second
                        quarter of 2016.

                (3)    Interest expense represents
                        incremental interest incurred in
                        connection with the completion of a
