About this update from Sleep Number Corporation

Management Implements New Organizational Structure, Driving Company-Wide Efficiency, Including Marketing, Research and Development and General and Administrative Costs New Structure Aims to Improve Cash Generation and Shareholder Value MINNEAPOLIS, April 30, 2025 --( BUSINESS WIRE )--Sleep Number Corporation (Nasdaq: SNBR) today reported results for the quarter ended March 29, 2025. Linda Findley, President and CEO, commented, "We are laser focused on delivering strong returns for shareholders and are taking a different approach to the Sleep Number business. I see a way to run our business on a lower cost basis without compromising our topline. We are fundamentally changing how we operate. We implemented an organizational redesign, including changes to our leadership team, to simplify decision making and bring us closer to the customer. With that change, we reduced corporate management roles by 21%. In addition, we are reshaping key functions within the company, including marketing and research and development, to further drive efficiency. Since I joined three weeks ago, our efforts have reduced second quarter operating expenses by approximately 10% of our current cost structure, as of the first quarter of 2025." "Sleep Number is truly differentiated and no one else does what we do. With the organizational changes implemented, we are now focused on building a strategy for growth with our customers at the center. I joined Sleep Number because I believe strongly in the company’s long-term potential, and I am confident that we can change our trajectory to drive sustainable growth and profitability." Financial Highlights (all comparisons year-over-year unless otherwise noted) Cash Flows, Liquidity and Balance Sheet Highlights (all comparisons year-over-year unless otherwise noted) Company’s Organizational Changes In a separate press release today, the company announced a series of changes to its Executive Leadership Team reporting to Findley as part of an organizational redesign. The redesign also included broader changes across senior level roles. By consolidating overlapping capabilities and eliminating overspecialized roles, the company is now a more streamlined organization that the company believes will drive efficiency, increase accountability and accelerate decision-making to strengthen performance within a range of economic environments. With this change, Sleep Number reduced corporate management roles by 21%. With new leadership in place, the company anticipates further streamlining under each new function over the coming weeks. The company has also taken aggressive, strategic actions to reduce expenses without compromising its topline, including marketing and research and development investments, through a sharper focus on near- and intermediate-term customer value. These actions are anticipated to reduce the company’s cost structure by $80 to $100 million before restructuring costs on an annualized basis as compared to the first quarter of 2025. Approximately 35% of these costs are fixed, including research and development and general and administrative costs; 50% are structural changes to the marketing model for more efficiency; and 15% are volume-driven. Financial Outlook Given the recent leadership transition, changes being implemented within the business, and the rapidly evolving macroeconomic environment, the company will not be providing a 2025 outlook at this time. The company will continue to reassess its ability to provide such guidance as the new leadership team evaluates the company’s strategy and the macroeconomic and consumer demand environment. Conference Call Information Management will host its regularly scheduled conference call to discuss the company’s results at 5 p.m. EDT (4 p.m. CDT; 2 p.m. PDT) today.
