(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
(a) Basis of Presentation and Description of Business. Tempur Sealy International, Inc., a Delaware corporation, together with its subsidiaries, is a U.S. based, multinational company. The term "Tempur Sealy International" refers to Tempur Sealy International, Inc. only, and the term "Company" refers to Tempur Sealy International, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

The Company designs, manufactures and distributes bedding products, which include mattresses, foundations and adjustable bases, and other products, which include pillows and other accessories. The Company also derives income from royalties by licensing Sealy® and Stearns & Foster® brands, technology and trademarks to other manufacturers. The Company sells its products through two sales channels: Wholesale and Direct.

The Company has ownership interests in a group of Asia-Pacific joint ventures to develop markets for Sealy® branded products in those regions. The Company’s ownership interest in these joint ventures is 50.0%. The equity method of accounting is used for these joint ventures, over which the Company has significant influence but does not have control, and consolidation is not otherwise required. The Company’s equity in the net income and losses of these investments is reported in equity income in earnings of unconsolidated affiliates in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Additionally, in October 2020, the Company entered into a 50.0% ownership joint venture to reacquire the rights and acquire the assets to manufacture, market and distribute Sealy® and Stearns & Foster® branded products in the United Kingdom.

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X and include all of the information and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial reporting. These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company and related footnotes for the year ended December 31, 2020, included in the 2020 Annual Report filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 19, 2021.
 
The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results of operations for a full year. It is the opinion of management that all necessary adjustments for a fair presentation of the results of operations for the interim periods have been made and are of a recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed herein.

(b) Inventories. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realizable value, determined by the first-in, first-out method, and consist of the following:
March 31,December 31,

(c) Accrued Sales Returns. The Company allows product returns through certain sales channels and on certain products. Estimated sales returns are provided at the time of sale based on historical sales channel return rates. Estimated future obligations related to these products are provided by a reduction of sales in the period in which the revenue is recognized. The Company considers the impact of recoverable salvage value on sales returns by segment in determining its estimate of future sales returns. Accrued sales returns are included in accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

TEMPUR SEALY INTERNATIONAL, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – (unaudited) (continued)

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, $33.8 million and $31.6 million of accrued sales returns are included as a component of accrued expenses and other current liabilities and $14.4 million and $13.3 million of accrued sales returns are included in other non-current liabilities on the Company’s accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, respectively.

(d) Warranties. The Company provides warranties on certain products, which vary by segment, product and brand. Estimates of warranty expenses are based primarily on historical claims experience and product testing. Estimated future obligations related to these products are charged to cost of sales in the period in which the related revenue is recognized. The Company considers the impact of recoverable salvage value on warranty costs in determining its estimate of future warranty obligations.

The Company provides warranties on mattresses with varying warranty terms. Tempur-Pedic mattresses sold in the North America segment and all Sealy mattresses have warranty terms ranging from 10 to 25 years, generally non-prorated for the first 10 to 15 years and then prorated for the balance of the warranty term. Tempur-Pedic mattresses sold in the International segment have warranty terms ranging from 5 to 15 years, non-prorated for the first 5 years and then prorated on a straight-line basis for the last 10 years of the warranty term. Tempur-Pedic pillows have a warranty term of 3 years, non-prorated.

The Company had the following activity for its accrued warranty expense from December 31, 2020 to March 31, 2021:
(in millions)
Balance as of December 31, 2020$44.2

(e) Allowance for Credit Losses. The allowance for credit losses is the Company’s best estimate of the amount of expected lifetime credit losses in the Company’s accounts receivable. The Company regularly reviews the adequacy of its allowance for credit losses. The Company estimates losses over the contractual life using assumptions to capture the risk of loss, even if remote, based principally on how long a receivable has been outstanding. Account balances are charged off against the allowance for credit losses after all reasonable means of collection have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote. As of March 31, 2021, the Company's accounts receivable were substantially current. Other factors considered include historical write-off experience, current economic conditions and also factors such as customer credit, past transaction history with the customer and changes in customer payment terms. The allowance for credit losses is included in accounts receivable, net in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company had the following activity for its allowance for credit losses from December 31, 2020 to March 31, 2021:

Securitized Debt

The Company and certain of its subsidiaries are party to a securitization transaction with respect to certain accounts receivable due to the Company and certain of its subsidiaries (as amended, the "Accounts Receivable Securitization"). As of March 31, 2021, the Company had availability of $87.2 million under the Accounts Receivable Securitization. On April 6, 2021, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a new amendment to the Accounts Receivable Securitization. The amendment, among other things, extended the maturity date of the Accounts Receivable Securitization to April 6, 2023 and increased the overall limit from $120.0 million to $200.0 million.

2029 Senior Notes

On March 25, 2021, Tempur Sealy International issued $800.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.00% senior notes due 2029 (the "2029 Senior Notes") in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and to certain non-U.S. persons in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The 2029 Senior Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of March 25, 2021 (the "2029 Indenture"), among Tempur Sealy International, certain subsidiaries of Tempur Sealy International as guarantors (the "Guarantors"), and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee. The 2029 Senior Notes are general unsecured senior obligations of Tempur Sealy International and are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Guarantors. The 2029 Senior Notes mature on April 15, 2029, and interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on each April 15 and October 15, beginning on October 15, 2021.

Tempur Sealy International has the option to redeem all or a portion of the 2029 Senior Notes at any time on or after April 15, 2024. The initial redemption price is 102.000% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. The redemption price will decline each year after 2024 until it becomes 100.0% of the principal amount beginning on April 15, 2026. In addition, Tempur Sealy International has the option at any time prior to April 15, 2024 to redeem some or all of the 2029 Senior Notes at 100.0% of the original principal amount plus a “make-whole” premium and accrued and unpaid interest, if any. Tempur Sealy International may also redeem up to 40.0% of the 2029 Senior Notes prior to April 15, 2024, under certain circumstances with the net cash proceeds from certain equity offerings, at 104.000% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. Tempur Sealy International may make such redemptions as described in the preceding sentence only if, after any such redemption, at least 60.0% of the original aggregate principal amount of the 2029 Senior Notes issued remains outstanding.

The 2029 Indenture restricts the ability of Tempur Sealy International and the ability of certain of its subsidiaries to, among other things: (i) incur, directly or indirectly, debt; (ii) make, directly or indirectly, certain investments and restricted payments; (iii) incur or suffer to exist, directly or indirectly, liens on its properties or assets; (iv) sell or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, assets; (v) create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist any consensual restriction on the right of certain of the subsidiaries of Tempur Sealy International to pay dividends or make any other distributions on or in respect of their capital stock; and (vi) enter into transactions with affiliates. These covenants are subject to a number of exceptions and qualifications.

As a result of the issuance of the 2029 Senior Notes, $11.4 million of deferred financing costs were capitalized in the first quarter of 2021 and will be amortized as interest expense over the respective debt instrument period, 8 years, using the effective interest method.

2026 Senior Notes

On April 28, 2021, the Company announced its election to conditionally redeem the $600.0 million issued and outstanding 2026 Senior Notes, in full, on June 15, 2021 (the "Redemption Date"). The 2026 Senior Notes will be redeemed at 102.750% of their principal amount, plus the accrued and unpaid interest. The redemption is conditional on the determination by the Company's Chief Financial Officer, in his sole discretion, as of the second business day before the Redemption Date, that the redemption continues to be reasonably prudent and consistent with the Company's objectives concerning liquidity, financing needs and funding costs. The Company intends to use net proceeds from the 2029 Senior Notes primarily to fund the redemption.

In the first quarter of 2021, the Company recognized $5.0 million of loss on extinguishment of debt, which includes a prepayment premium of $3.5 million and the write-off of $1.5 million of deferred financing costs, associated with the redemption of the remaining amount outstanding of the 2023 Senior Notes.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Financial instruments, although not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis, include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and the Company's debt obligations. The carrying value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity of those instruments. Borrowings under the 2019 Credit Agreement and the securitized debt are at variable interest rates and accordingly their carrying amounts approximate fair value. The fair value of the following material financial instruments were based on observable inputs estimated using discounted cash flows and market-based expectations for interest rates, credit risk and the contractual terms of debt instruments. The fair values of these material financial instruments are as follows:

The Company grants PRSUs to executive officers and certain members of management. Actual payout under the PRSUs is dependent upon the achievement of certain financial goals. During the first quarter of 2021, the Company granted PRSUs as a component of the long-term incentive plan ("2021 PRSUs"). The Company has recorded stock-based compensation expense related to the 2021 PRSUs during the three months ended March 31, 2021, as it was probable that the Company would achieve the specified performance target for the performance period.

(10) Commitments and Contingencies
 
The Company is involved in various legal and administrative proceedings incidental to the operations of its business. The Company believes that the outcome of all such pending proceedings in the aggregate will not have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, liquidity or operating results.
(11) Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 was 23.6% and 27.8%, respectively. The Company's effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 differed from the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% principally due to subpart F income (i.e., global intangible low-taxed income, or "GILTI," earned by the Company’s foreign subsidiaries), foreign income tax rate differentials, state and local taxes, changes in the Company’s uncertain tax positions, the excess tax deficiency (or benefit) related to stock-based compensation and certain other permanent items.

The Company has been involved in a dispute with the Danish Tax Authority ("SKAT") regarding the royalty paid by a U.S. subsidiary of Tempur Sealy International to a Danish subsidiary (the "Danish Tax Matter") for tax years 2001 through current. The royalty is paid by the U.S. subsidiary for the right to utilize certain intangible assets owned by the Danish subsidiary in the U.S. production process.

The uncertain income tax liabilities for the Danish Tax Matter for the years 2001 through 2011 (the "Settlement Years") and for the years 2012 through 2021 (the "2012 to Current Period") are reflected in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as per below:

Total 1,144.6 $180.4 1,142.3 $187.5 

The deferred tax asset for the U.S. correlative benefit associated with the accrual of Danish tax for the 2012 to Current Period at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 is approximately $10.4 million and $12.0 million, respectively.

At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, the Company held cash on deposit with SKAT. The deposit at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 is included within the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet (translated at the exchange rates on March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively) as per below:

If the Company is not successful in resolving the Danish Tax Matter for the 2012 to Current Period or there is a change in facts and circumstances, the Company may be required to further increase its uncertain income tax position associated with this matter, or decrease its deferred tax asset, also related to this matter, which could have a material impact on the Company's reported earnings.

There were no other significant changes in the Danish Tax Matter or other uncertain tax positions during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

The Company excluded 0.8 million shares for the three months ended March 31, 2020. Holders of non-vested stock-based compensation awards do not have voting rights.
(13) Business Segment Information
 
The Company operates in two segments: North America and International. These segments are strategic business units that are managed separately based on geography.

The Company evaluates segment performance based on net sales, gross profit and operating income.

The Company’s North America and International segment assets include investments in subsidiaries that are appropriately eliminated in the Company’s accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The remaining inter-segment eliminations are comprised of intercompany accounts receivable and payable.

Utilizing over a century of knowledge and industry-leading innovation, we deliver award-winning products that provide breakthrough sleep solutions to consumers in over 100 countries.

We operate in two segments: North America and International. These segments are strategic business units that are managed separately based on geography. Our North America segment consists of Tempur and Sealy manufacturing and distribution subsidiaries, joint ventures and licensees located in the U.S., Canada and Mexico. In 2020, we acquired an 80% ownership interest in a newly formed limited liability company containing substantially all of the assets of the Sherwood Bedding business, which is included in the North America segment. Our International segment consists of Tempur manufacturing and distribution subsidiaries, Sealy distribution subsidiaries, joint ventures and licensees located in Europe, Asia-Pacific and Latin America (other than Mexico). Corporate operating expenses are not included in either of the segments and are presented separately as a reconciling item to consolidated results. We evaluate segment performance based on net sales, gross profit and operating income. For additional information refer to Note 13, "Business Segment Information," included in Part I, ITEM 1 of this Report.

Our product brand portfolio includes many highly recognized and iconic brands in the industry, including Tempur®, Tempur-Pedic®, Sealy® featuring Posturepedic® Technology and Stearns & Foster® and our non-branded offerings include value-focused private label OEM products. Our distinct brands allow for complementary merchandising strategies.

Our distribution model operates through an omni-channel strategy. We distribute through two channels in each operating business segment: Wholesale and Direct. Our Wholesale channel consists of third-party retailers, including third-party distribution, hospitality and healthcare. Our Direct channel includes company-owned stores, online and call centers.

General Business and Economic Conditions

We believe the bedding industry is structured for sustained growth driven by product innovation, consumer confidence, housing formations and population growth. The industry is no longer engaged in uneconomical retail store expansion, startups have shifted from uneconomical strategies to becoming profitable and legacy retailers and manufacturers have become skilled in producing profitable online sales.

At the outset of the COVID-19 global pandemic we experienced a reduction in total net sales across both of our business segments in the first quarter of 2020. Our North America business began experiencing sharp declines in total net sales and orders in mid-March. Order trends reached their lowest point in early April 2020 when they had declined approximately 80% as compared to the prior year. North American order trends significantly improved beginning in late May, and this improvement continued throughout the remainder of 2020. This momentum continued in the first quarter of 2021, with consolidated net sales increasing 26.9% as compared to the first quarter of 2020, as the negative impacts of the global COVID-19 pandemic have largely subsided as compared to the significant global disruption experienced throughout early 2020.

Order trends within our International markets are experiencing volatility due to restrictions on retail activity related to the COVID-19 global pandemic, however we are confident in our ability to operate in this retail environment. Current order trends continue to indicate growth in the U.S. As a result, we expect consolidated net sales growth to exceed 20% for the full year 2021.

Over the past several years and accelerating during the COVID-19 global pandemic, consumers have shifted their spending habits towards in-home products, including bedding products. We believe this may be a long-term shift in consumer spending habits, which could continue to favorably impact our industry. The rapid increase in demand for bedding products has challenged the entire bedding industry and supply chain, including our business. In the U.S., the broad-based increase in demand coupled with supply chain constraints, primarily related to an encased innerspring component and chemicals, has created operational challenges in the production of Sealy and Sherwood products. As a result, the sales growth of Sealy and Sherwood in the first quarter of 2021 was unfavorably impacted as we could not fulfill the entire domestic demand for these products. For the second quarter of 2021, we expect the innerspring supply chain to be largely unconstrained and the constraints in the chemical supply chain to mitigate significantly by the end of the quarter.

During the first quarter of 2021, commodity costs unfavorably impacted our gross margin as they were higher than expected. We implemented pricing actions in the fourth quarter of 2020 and in early April 2021 to mitigate these known commodity headwinds. Since then, commodity costs have continued to rise due to the winter storm in the Gulf of Mexico, which caused a temporary industry-wide reduction in chemical availability. We believe this commodity cost inflation to be temporary and do not expect to take additional pricing actions at this time. We anticipate the chemical constraints will largely be resolved by the end of the second quarter. Based on our current commodity outlook, we expect commodity cost inflation to negatively impact gross margin by approximately $25 million, predominantly occurring in the second quarter of 2021, which will not be offset by price.

While we are unable to determine or predict the nature, duration or scope of the overall impact the COVID-19 pandemic will have on our business, results of operations, liquidity or capital resources, we believe that it is important to share where our Company stands today, how our response to COVID-19 is progressing and how our operations and financial condition may change as the fight against COVID-19 progresses. We will continue to actively monitor the situation and may take further actions that alter our business operations as may be required by federal, state or local authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers, suppliers and stockholders. For further information regarding the impact of COVID-19 on the Company, please refer to "Risk Factors" in ITEM 1A of Part I of the 2020 Annual Report.

Product Launches

During the first quarter of 2021, we completed the launch of our Tempur-Ergo Smart Base Collection with Sleeptracker® technology in North America. In 2021, we are refreshing our Sealy portfolio in our North America segment and launching new models in our Posturepedic Plus™, Posturepedic® and Essentials product lines. We plan to launch the refresh in two phases. In the first quarter of 2021, we began rolling out our Posturepedic® and Essentials product lines. We expect to complete the launch of our Essentials and Posturepedic® lines in the second quarter of 2021. Additionally, we expect to complete the launch of the higher end Posturepedic Plus™ line in the second half of 2021, which will complete the largest rollout in Sealy's history. In 2022, we expect to launch a new Tempur product line in our International segment.

Our global 2021 marketing plan is to aggressively support our innovative bedding products through investing significant marketing dollars to promote our worldwide brands.

We 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. Constant currency information is not recognized under GAAP, and it is not intended as an alternative to GAAP measures. Refer to Part I, ITEM 3 of this Report for a discussion of our foreign currency exchange rate risk.

Net sales increased 26.9%, and on a constant currency basis increased 25.1%. The change in net sales was driven by the following:

North America net sales increased $191.0 million, or 27.6%. Net sales in the Wholesale channel increased $140.8 million, or 22.5%, primarily driven by broad-based demand across our retail partners. Net sales in the Direct channel increased $50.2 million, or 74.3%, primarily driven by growth from our e-commerce business. On a constant currency basis, North America net sales increased 27.3%.

International net sales increased $30.4 million, or 23.4%. On a constant currency basis, International net sales increased 13.8%. Net sales in the Wholesale channel increased 9.1% on a constant currency basis. Net sales in the Direct channel increased 28.1% on a constant currency basis.


GROSS PROFIT

North America$363.9 41.2 %$281.2 40.6 %0.6 %
International95.0 59.2 %75.9 58.3 %0.9 %
Consolidated gross margin$458.9 44.0 %$357.1 43.4 %0.6 %

Costs associated with net sales are recorded in cost of sales and include the costs of producing, shipping, warehousing, receiving and inspecting goods during the period, as well as depreciation and amortization of long-lived assets used in the manufacturing process.

Our gross margin is primarily impacted by the relative amount of net sales contributed by our Tempur and Sealy products. Our Sealy products have a significantly lower gross margin than our Tempur products. Our Sealy mattress products range from value to premium priced offerings, and gross margins are typically higher on premium products compared to value priced offerings. Our Tempur products are exclusively premium priced products. As sales of our value priced products increase relative to sales of our premium priced products, our gross margins will be negatively impacted in both our North America and International segments.

Our gross margin is also impacted by fixed cost leverage based on manufacturing unit volumes; the cost of raw materials; operational efficiencies due to the utilization in our manufacturing facilities; product, brand, channel and country mix; foreign exchange fluctuations; volume incentives offered to certain retail accounts; participation in our retail cooperative advertising programs; and costs associated with new product introductions. Future changes in raw material prices could have a significant impact on our gross margin. Our margins are also impacted by the growth in our Wholesale channel as sales in our Wholesale channel are at wholesale prices whereas sales in our Direct channel are at retail prices.

Gross margin improved 60 basis points. The primary drivers of changes in gross margin by segment are discussed below:

North America gross margin improved 60 basis points. The improvement in gross margin was primarily driven by brand and channel mix of 140 basis points, partially offset by operational inefficiencies related to supply chain constraints of 100 basis points.

International gross margin improved 90 basis points. The improvement in gross margin was primarily driven by favorable mix of 160 basis points as well as operational efficiencies of 150 basis points, partially offset by increased commodity costs of 220 basis points.

OPERATING EXPENSES

Selling and marketing expenses include advertising and media production associated with the promotion of our brands, other marketing materials such as catalogs, brochures, videos, product samples, direct customer mailings and point of purchase materials and sales force compensation. We also include in selling and marketing expense certain new product development costs, including market research and new product testing.

General, administrative and other expenses include salaries and related expenses, information technology, professional fees, depreciation and amortization of long-lived assets not used in the manufacturing process, expenses for administrative functions and research and development costs.

Operating expenses increased $25.6 million, or 10.2%, and decreased 400 basis points as a percentage of net sales. The primary drivers of changes in operating expenses by segment are explained below:

North America operating expenses increased $10.9 million, or 6.1%, and decreased 430 basis points as a percentage of net sales. The increase in operating expenses was primarily driven by advertising investments, partially offset by decreased customer-related charges. In 2020, we recorded $11.7 million of customer-related charges in connection with the bankruptcy of Art Van Furniture, LLC and affiliates, which was not repeated in the same period in 2021.

International operating expenses increased $6.2 million, or 12.6%, and decreased 330 basis points as a percentage of net sales. The increase in operating expenses was primarily driven by advertising and other selling and marketing investments.

Corporate operating expenses increased $8.5 million, or 37.4%. The increase in operating expenses was primarily driven by variable compensation due to a reduction in prior year when the full year outlook included worldwide shutdowns and significant retailer door closures.

Research and development expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2021 were $6.5 million compared to $5.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2020, an increase of $0.7 million, or 12.1%.

Operating income increased $83.1 million and operating margin improved 520 basis points. The primary drivers of changes in operating income and operating margin by segment are discussed below:

North America operating income increased $71.8 million and operating margin improved 490 basis points. The improvement in operating margin was primarily driven by favorable operating expense leverage of 240 basis points, improvement in gross margin of 60 basis points and decreased customer-related charges. In 2020, we recorded $11.7 million of customer-related charges in connection with the bankruptcy of Art Van Furniture, LLC and affiliates, which was not repeated in the same period in 2021.

International operating income increased $19.8 million and operating margin improved 850 basis points. The improvement in operating margin was primarily driven by improved performance of the Asia-Pacific joint ventures of 340 basis points, favorable operating expense leverage of 240 basis points and the improvement in gross margin of 90 basis points. Additionally, in 2020, we recorded $2.3 million of charges associated with the global pandemic, which were not repeated in 2021.

Corporate operating expenses increased $8.5 million, which negatively impacted our consolidated operating margin by 80 basis points. The increase in operating expenses was primarily driven by variable compensation due to a reduction in prior year when the full year outlook included worldwide shutdowns and significant retailer door closures.

Interest expense, net$12.3 $20.3 (39.4)%

Interest expense, net, decreased $8.0 million, or 39.4%. The decrease in interest expense, net, was primarily driven by reduced average levels of outstanding debt and lower interest rates on our variable rate debt.

Our income tax provision includes income taxes associated with taxes currently payable and deferred taxes and includes the impact of net operating losses for certain of our foreign operations.

Our income tax provision increased $17.0 million due to an increase in income before income taxes. Our effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to the same prior year period decreased by 420 basis points. The effective tax rate as compared to the U.S. federal statutory rate for the three months ended March 31, 2021 included the favorable impact of the elimination of global intangible low-taxed income ("GILTI") from U.S. taxable income, the favorable impact of the deductibility of stock compensation in the U.S. and included a net unfavorable impact of other discrete items. The effective tax rate as compared to the U.S. federal statutory tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2020 included a net unfavorable impact of discrete items primarily related to the likelihood of the realization of certain deferred tax assets, i.e., the future deductibility of such items for income tax purposes, and certain stock compensation.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
Liquidity

Our principal sources of funds are cash flows from operations, supplemented with borrowings in the capital markets and made pursuant to our credit facilities and cash and cash equivalents on hand. Principal uses of funds consist of payments of principal and interest on our debt facilities, share repurchases, payments of dividends to our shareholders, capital expenditures and working capital needs.

Table of Contents
As of March 31, 2021, we had net working capital of $318.6 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $290.5 million, as compared to a working capital deficit of $6.4 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $65.0 million, as of December 31, 2020.

At March 31, 2021, total cash and cash equivalents were $290.5 million, of which $264.6 million was held in the U.S. and $25.9 million was held by subsidiaries outside of the U.S. The amount of cash and cash equivalents held by subsidiaries outside of the U.S. and not readily convertible into the U.S. Dollar or other major foreign currencies is not material to our overall liquidity or financial position.

Cash Provided by (Used in) Continuing Operations

The table below presents net cash provided by (used in) operating, investing and financing activities from continuing operations for the periods indicated below:

Net cash provided by (used in) continuing operations:
Operating activities$86.3 $15.0 
Investing activities(24.4)(64.0)
Financing activities168.9 188.1 

Cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations increased $71.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020. The increase in cash provided by operating activities was driven by strong operational performance in the period.

Cash used in investing activities from continuing operations decreased $39.6 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020. The decrease in cash used in investing activities was due to the acquisition of the Sherwood Bedding business, which occurred in the first quarter of 2020.

Cash provided by financing activities from continuing operations decreased $19.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021 as compared to the same period in 2020. For the three months ended March 31, 2021, we had net funding of $504.8 million, which included proceeds of $800.0 million from the issuance of our 2029 Senior Notes partially offset by net repayments under our credit facilities and 2023 Senior Notes, as compared to net borrowings of $380.1 million in 2020 on our credit facilities. During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, we repurchased $313.1 million and $199.3 million, respectively, of our common stock. Cash provided by financing activities also decreased due to dividends paid to shareholders of $14.3 million and payment of deferred financing costs of $12.7 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021.

Cash Provided by (Used in) Discontinued Operations

Net cash provided by (used in) operating, investing and financing activities from discontinued operations for the periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 was not material.

Capital Expenditures

Capital expenditures totaled $23.5 million and $26.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively. We currently expect our 2021 capital expenditures to be approximately $125 million to $140 million, which includes investments in growth initiatives and maintenance capital expenditures of $75 million.

Indebtedness

Our total debt increased to $1,873.1 million as of March 31, 2021 from $1,370.3 million as of December 31, 2020. On November 9, 2020, we redeemed $200.0 million of our issued and outstanding 2023 Senior Notes at 101.406% of their principal amount, plus the accrued and unpaid interest. During the first quarter of 2021, we redeemed the remaining $250.0 million of our 2023 Senior Notes, principally funded by our revolving credit facility, at 101.406% of the principal amount, plus the accrued and unpaid interest.

Table of Contents

On February 2, 2021 we entered into an amendment to our 2019 Credit Agreement, which increased our revolving credit facility from $425.0 million to $725.0 million. Total availability under our revolving senior secured credit facility was $724.9 million as of March 31, 2021, which matures in 2024.

On March 25, 2021, we issued the 2029 Senior Notes. The 2029 Senior Notes mature on April 15, 2029 and 4.00% interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on each April 15 and October 15, beginning on October 15, 2021. Refer to Note 5, "Debt" in our of the "Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements," under Part I, ITEM 1 for further discussion of our debt.

As of March 31, 2021, our ratio of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash to adjusted EBITDA per credit facility, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, in accordance with our 2019 Credit Agreement was 1.95 times. This ratio is within the terms of the financial covenants for the maximum consolidated total net leverage ratio as set forth in the 2019 Credit Agreement, which limits this ratio to 5.00 times. As of March 31, 2021, we were in compliance with all of the financial covenants in our debt agreements, and we do not anticipate material issues under any debt agreements based on current facts and circumstances.

Our debt agreements contain certain covenants that limit restricted payments, including share repurchases and dividends. The 2019 Credit Agreement, 2026 Senior Notes and 2029 Senior Notes contain similar limitations which, subject to other conditions, allow unlimited restricted payments at times when the ratio of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash to adjusted EBITDA per credit facility, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, remains below 3.50 times. In addition, these agreements permit limited restricted payments under certain conditions when the ratio of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash to adjusted EBITDA per credit facility is above 3.50 times. The limit on restricted payments under the 2019 Credit Agreement, 2026 Senior Notes and 2029 Senior Notes is in part determined by a basket that grows at 50% of adjusted net income each quarter, reduced by restricted payments that are not otherwise permitted. 

For additional information, refer to "Non-GAAP Financial Information" below for the calculation of the ratio of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash to adjusted EBITDA calculated in accordance with the 2019 Credit Agreement. Both consolidated indebtedness and adjusted EBITDA as used in discussion of the 2019 Credit Agreement are non-GAAP financial measures and do not purport to be alternatives to net income as a measure of operating performance or total debt.

Debt Securities Guaranteed by Subsidiaries

The $600.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2026 Senior Notes (collectively the "Senior Notes"), respectively, are general unsecured senior obligations of Tempur Sealy International and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis, jointly and severally, by all of Tempur Sealy International’s 100% directly or indirectly owned domestic subsidiaries guaranteeing Tempur Sealy International's obligations under the 2019 Credit Agreement (together, the "Obligor Group"). The $450.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2023 Senior Notes were general unsecured senior obligations at December 31, 2020. The foreign subsidiaries represent the foreign operations of the Company and do not guarantee the Senior Notes.

The Senior Notes rank equally with or senior to all debt of Tempur Sealy International and the Obligor Group, but are effectively junior to all secured debt, including obligations under the 2019 Credit Agreement, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt. Subject to certain restrictions, Tempur Sealy International and the restricted subsidiaries under the applicable indenture may incur additional secured debt. Claims of creditors of non-guarantor subsidiaries, including trade creditors, and creditors holding debt and guarantees issued by those subsidiaries, and claims of preferred stockholders (if any) of those subsidiaries generally will have priority with respect to the assets and earnings of those subsidiaries over the claims of creditors of the holders of the Senior Notes. The Senior Notes and each guarantee are therefore effectively subordinated to creditors (including trade creditors) and preferred stockholders (if any) of non-guarantor subsidiaries.

Under the applicable indenture, each guarantee is limited to the maximum amount that would not render the subsidiary guarantor's obligations subject to avoidance under the applicable fraudulent conveyance provisions of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provision of state law. By virtue of this limitation, a subsidiary guarantor's obligation under its guarantee could be significantly less than amounts payable with respect to the Senior Notes, or could be reduced to zero, depending upon the amount of other obligations of such guarantor.

A subsidiary guarantor will be released from its obligations under the applicable indenture governing the Senior Notes when: (a) the subsidiary guarantor is sold or sells all or substantially all of its assets; (b) the subsidiary is declared "unrestricted" under the applicable indenture; (c) the subsidiary’s guarantee of indebtedness under the 2019 Credit Agreement (as it may be amended, refinanced or replaced) is released (other than a discharge through repayment); (d) the requirements for legal or covenant defeasance or discharge of the applicable indenture have been satisfied; (e) the subsidiary is liquidated or dissolved in accordance with the applicable indenture; or (f) the occurrence of any covenant suspension. The principal elimination entries relate to investments in subsidiaries and intercompany balances and transactions, including transactions with the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary guarantors and non-guarantor subsidiaries. The Company has accounted for its investments in its subsidiaries under the equity method.

In March 2020, the SEC adopted final rules that amend the financial disclosure requirements for subsidiary issuers and guarantors of registered debt securities under Rule 3-10 of Regulation S-X, permitting registrants to disclose summarized financial information for such subsidiary issuers and guarantors. The rule was effective January 4, 2021.

Share Repurchase Program

Our Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program in 2016 pursuant to which we were authorized to repurchase shares of our common stock. On February 11, 2021, the Board of Directors authorized an increase of $211.4 million, to the existing share repurchase authorization of Tempur Sealy International's common stock. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we repurchased 8.4 million shares under our share repurchase program for $299.8 million. As of March 31, 2021, we had $113.2 million remaining under our share repurchase authorization. On April 29, 2021, the Board of Directors authorized an additional increase to the share repurchase authorization bringing the total authorization to $400.0 million. Share repurchases under this program may be made through open market transactions, negotiated purchases or otherwise, at times and in such amounts as management deems appropriate. These repurchases may be funded by operating cash flows and/or borrowings under our debt arrangements. The timing and actual number of shares repurchased will depend on a variety of factors including price, financing and regulatory requirements and other market conditions. The program is subject to certain limitations under our debt agreements. The program does not require the purchase of any minimum number of shares and may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time without prior notice. Repurchases may be made under a Rule 10b5-1 plan, which would permit shares to be repurchased when we might otherwise be precluded from doing so under federal securities laws.

We will manage our share repurchase program based on current and expected cash flows, share price and alternative investment opportunities. For a complete description of our share repurchase program, please refer to ITEM 5 under Part II, "Market for Registrant's Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities," in the 2020 Annual Report. Please also refer to "Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities" in ITEM 2(c) of Part II of this Report.

Future Liquidity Sources and Uses

As of March 31, 2021, we had $1,102.6 million of liquidity, including $290.5 million of cash on hand and $724.9 million available under our revolving senior secured credit facility. We also had availability of $87.2 million under our securitization facility. In addition, we expect to generate significant cash flow from operations in the full year 2021. We believe that cash flow from operations, availability under our existing credit facilities and arrangements, current cash balances and the ability to obtain other financing, if necessary, will provide adequate cash funds for our foreseeable working capital needs, necessary capital expenditures and debt service obligations.

Our capital allocation strategy follows a balanced approach focused on supporting the business, returning shareholder value through share repurchases and quarterly dividends as well as opportunistic and strategic acquisition opportunities that enhance our global competitiveness. Additionally, we have taken capital structure actions to optimize our balance sheet, through extending the maturities of our long-term debt and lowering our annualized interest expense by approximately $23 million. We plan to take the following additional actions in 2021:

For the second quarter of 2021, the Board of Directors has declared a dividend of $0.07 per share. The dividend is payable on May 27, 2021 to shareholders of record as of May 13, 2021.
Repurchase at least 6% of shares outstanding over the course of 2021, subject to market conditions.
We intend to use the net proceeds from the 2029 Senior Notes to redeem in full the $600.0 million 2026 Senior Notes. The remaining funds will be used for general corporate purposes.

As of March 31, 2021, we had $1,873.1 million in total debt outstanding and consolidated indebtedness less netted cash, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, of $1,673.1 million. Leverage based on the ratio of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash to adjusted EBITDA per credit facility, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, was 1.95 times for the trailing twelve months ended March 31, 2021. Our target range for our ratio of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is 2.0 to 3.0 times. Total cash interest payments related to our borrowings are expected to be approximately $50 million to $55 million in 2021.

On April 6, 2021, we entered into a new amendment to our Accounts Receivable Securitization that, among other things, extended its maturity date to April 6, 2023 and increased the overall limit from $120.0 million to $200.0 million.

Our debt service obligations could, under certain circumstances, have material consequences to our stockholders. Similarly, our cash requirements are subject to change as business conditions warrant and opportunities arise. The timing and size of any new business ventures or acquisitions that we may complete may also impact our cash requirements and debt service obligations. For information regarding the impact of COVID-19 on our business, including our liquidity and capital resources, please refer to "Risk Factors" contained in ITEM 1A of Part I of the 2020 Annual Report.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

We provide information regarding adjusted net income, adjusted EPS, adjusted operating income (expense), adjusted operating margin, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA per credit facility, consolidated indebtedness and consolidated indebtedness less netted cash, which are not recognized terms under GAAP and do not purport to be alternatives to net income, earnings per share, operating income (expense), operating margin or an alternative to total debt as a measure of liquidity. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with performance measures that better reflect our underlying operations and trends, providing a perspective not immediately apparent from net income, operating income (expense) and operating margin. The adjustments we make to derive the non-GAAP financial measures include adjustments to exclude items that may cause short-term fluctuations in the nearest GAAP financial measure, but which we do not consider to be the fundamental attributes or primary drivers of our business.

We believe that exclusion of these items assists in providing a more complete understanding of our underlying results from continuing operations and trends, and we use these measures along with the corresponding GAAP financial measures to manage our business, to evaluate our 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. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered supplemental in nature and should not be construed as more significant than comparable financial 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 financial measures and a reconciliation to the nearest GAAP financial measure, please refer to the reconciliations on the following pages.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS

A reconciliation of reported net income to adjusted net income and the calculation of adjusted EPS is provided below.

We believe that presenting these non-GAAP measures provides investors with useful information with respect to our operating performance, cash flow generation and comparisons from period to period, as well as general information about our progress in reducing our leverage.

Table of Contents
Under the 2019 Credit Agreement, the definition of adjusted EBITDA (which we refer to as "adjusted EBITDA per credit facility") contains certain restrictions that limit adjustments to net income when calculating adjusted EBITDA. For the trailing twelve months ended March 31, 2021, our adjustments to net income when calculating adjusted EBITDA did not exceed the allowable amount under the 2019 Credit Agreement.

The ratio of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash to adjusted EBITDA per credit facility is 1.95 times for the trailing twelve months ended March 31, 2021. The 2019 Credit Agreement requires us to maintain a ratio of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash to adjusted EBITDA of less than 5.00:1.00 times.

The following table sets forth the reconciliation of our reported total debt to the calculation of consolidated indebtedness less netted cash as of March 31, 2021. "Consolidated Indebtedness" and "Netted Cash" are terms used in the 2019 Credit Agreement for purposes of certain financial covenants.

(1)
We present deferred financing costs as a direct reduction from the carrying amount of the related debt in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. For purposes of determining total debt for financial covenant purposes, we have added these costs back to total debt, net as calculated per the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
(2)
Netted cash includes cash and cash equivalents for domestic and foreign subsidiaries designated as restricted subsidiaries in the 2019 Credit Agreement. For purposes of determining netted cash for financial covenant purposes under the 2019 Credit Agreement, the aggregate amount of netted cash is not permitted to exceed $200.0 million.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

 For a discussion of our critical accounting policies and estimates, please refer to ITEM 7 under Part II, "Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," in the 2020 Annual Report. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates in 2021.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Foreign Currency Exposures

As a result of our global operations, our earnings are exposed to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Many of our foreign businesses operate in functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar. As the U.S. dollar strengthens relative to the Euro or other foreign currencies where we have operations, there will be a negative impact on our operating results upon translation of those foreign operating results into the U.S. dollar. Foreign currency exchange rate changes positively impacted our adjusted EBITDA per credit facility, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, by 1.7% in the three months ended March 31, 2021.

We hedge a portion of our currency exchange exposure relating to foreign currency transactions with foreign exchange forward contracts. A sensitivity analysis indicates the potential loss in fair value on foreign exchange forward contracts outstanding at March 31, 2021, resulting from a hypothetical 10.0% adverse change in all foreign currency exchange rates against the U.S. dollar, is approximately $6.8 million. Such losses would be largely offset by gains from the revaluation or settlement of the underlying assets and liabilities that are being protected by the foreign exchange forward contracts.

36

Table of Contents
Interest Rate Risk
 
As of March 31, 2021, we had variable-rate debt of approximately $403.4 million. A sensitivity analysis indicates that, holding other variables constant, including levels of indebtedness, a one hundred basis point increase in interest rates on our variable-rate debt would cause an estimated reduction in income before income taxes of approximately $4.0 million. We continue to evaluate the interest rate environment and look for opportunities to improve our debt structure and minimize interest rate risk and expense.

ITEM 4.     CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
 
 An evaluation was performed under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act"), as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based on that evaluation, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 31, 2021, and designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's ("SEC") rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting:

During the first quarter of 2021, the Company implemented a new enterprise resource planning (“ERP") system to replace the operational and financial systems for its Tempur U.S. distribution subsidiary. The Company completed significant pre-implementation testing and post-implementation testing and monitoring to ensure the effectiveness of internal controls over financial reporting. As a result of this implementation, the Company modified certain existing internal controls over financial reporting and implemented new controls and procedures related to the new ERP system. During the first quarter of 2021, no other changes occurred in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. The Company will continue to evaluate and monitor the internal controls over financial reporting during this period of change and will continue to evaluate the operating effectiveness of related key controls.
