Key Terms

Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months), Adjusted EBITDA, Organic Sales, Somnigroup Merger, +2 more

6 terms

Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months) financial

"contains the Company’s Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months) ratio"

Adjusted EBITDA financial

"Company management believes the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin is useful"

Adjusted EBITDA is a way companies measure how much money they make from their core operations, like running a business, by removing certain costs or income that aren’t part of regular business activities. It helps investors see how well a company is doing without distractions from unusual expenses or gains, making it easier to compare companies or track performance over time.

Organic Sales financial

"Organic Sales is calculated as trade sales excluding sales attributable to acquisitions and divestitures"

Organic sales are the change in a company’s revenue that comes from its existing business operations, excluding effects of acquisitions, divestitures, and currency swings. Think of it like measuring how much a garden grows from the plants you already tended, rather than adding new pots; investors use organic sales to judge whether demand and core business performance are genuinely improving or if growth is driven by one‑time deals or accounting shifts.

Somnigroup Merger financial

"Merger Sub will merge with and into Leggett (the “Somnigroup Merger”)"

HSR Antitrust Improvements Act regulatory

"the waiting period under the HSR Antitrust Improvements Act expired in June"

A U.S. law that requires companies to notify federal antitrust regulators and wait a set period before completing certain mergers, acquisitions, or asset transfers so authorities can review potential harms to competition. Think of it as a required heads-up and cooling-off period that lets regulators examine big deals. It matters to investors because the review can delay, change, or prevent transactions that affect company strategy, valuation, deal timing, and regulatory risk.

non-GAAP measures financial

"These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies"

Financial results that companies present using formulas or adjustments different from standard accounting rules (GAAP) to highlight what management considers the business’s ongoing performance. Investors care because these figures can make trends or profitability look clearer—like showing a car’s fuel efficiency after removing unusual trips—but they can also hide one‑time costs or aggressive assumptions, so comparing them with GAAP numbers helps judge reliability.

Item 2.02 Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On August 6, 2026, Leggett & Platt, Incorporated (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its financial results for the second quarter ending June 30, 2026 and related matters. The press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

This information is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. This information shall not be incorporated by reference into any document filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.

The press release contains the Company’s (i) Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months) ratio; (ii) Adjusted EPS; (iii) Adjusted EBIT; (iv) Adjusted EBIT Margin; (v) EBITDA; (vi) EBITDA Margin; (vii) Adjusted EBITDA; (viii) Adjusted EBITDA Margin; (ix) Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months); and (x) change in Organic Sales.

The press release also contains Segments’ (i) Adjusted EBIT; (ii) Adjusted EBIT Margin; (iii) Adjusted EBITDA; (iv) Adjusted EBITDA Margin; and (v) change in Organic Sales.

Company management believes the presentation of Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months) provides investors a useful way to assess the time it would take the Company to pay off its debt, ignoring various factors including interest and taxes. Management uses these ratios as supplemental information to assess its ability to pay off its incurred debt. Because we may not be able to use our earnings to reduce our debt on a dollar-for-dollar basis, the presentation of Net Debt/Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months) may have material limitations.

Company management believes the presentation of Company Adjusted EPS, Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT Margin, EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA (trailing twelve months), and Segment Adjusted EBIT, Adjusted EBIT Margin, Adjusted EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin is useful to investors in that it aids investors’ understanding of underlying operational profitability. Management uses these non-GAAP measures as supplemental information to assess the Company’s operational performance.

Organic Sales is calculated as trade sales excluding sales attributable to acquisitions and divestitures consummated within the last twelve months. Company management believes the presentation of change in Organic Sales is useful to investors and is used by management as supplemental information to analyze our underlying sales performance from period to period in our legacy businesses.

The above non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and should not be considered a substitute for, or more meaningful than, their GAAP counterparts. For non-GAAP reconciliations, please refer to pages 6 and 7 of the press release.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: August 6, 2026

Leggett & Platt Reports 2Q 2026 Results

Carthage, MO, August 6, 2026 —

• 2Q sales of $1.0 billion, a 6% decrease vs 2Q25, including a 5% decrease from divestitures

• 2Q EPS of $.33, 2Q adjusted¹ EPS of $.39, a $.09 increase vs adjusted¹ 2Q25 EPS

President and CEO Karl Glassman commented, “We are pleased with how our teams managed through a challenging environment in the second quarter. Our employees remained focused on disciplined execution and cost management which, along with favorable items that we do not expect to repeat in future quarters, contributed to improved adjusted earnings.

“Bedding industry conditions remain challenged both by sluggish consumer activity and continued consolidations and bankruptcies across the value chain. We estimate that U.S. mattress market units declined by low double digits in the second quarter, similar to the declines we saw in the first quarter. In our Bedding Products segment, continued strong performance of our trade rod and wire business partially offset the decline from lower mattress demand.

“Across our other segments, demand remained soft in markets tied to housing and broader consumer spending as consumers were faced with additional uncertainty resulting from the war in the Middle East and higher gas prices. In Specialized Products, Automotive performed slightly below the market, which saw lower consumer demand across all regions. In Furniture, Flooring & Textile Products, growth in Textiles offset lower demand in the remaining businesses, which are more directly exposed to U.S. residential spending, leading to a slight improvement in trade sales.

“As we look forward, we remain focused on executing our strategic priorities while expecting ongoing macroeconomic headwinds to temper consumer demand across most of our businesses for the remainder of the year.

“Finally, we continue to progress towards the planned merger with Somnigroup. As previously announced, the waiting period under the HSR Antitrust Improvements Act expired in June. We anticipate the transaction to close upon satisfaction of the remaining closing conditions, including Leggett & Platt shareholder approval at the special meeting planned for August 20^th and the remaining required regulatory approvals. As previously stated, we believe this combination with a valued long–standing customer will create a leading global company—providing compelling strategic and financial value for our customers, employees, and the Leggett & Platt shareholders.”

¹  Please refer to attached tables for Non-GAAP Reconciliations

SEGMENT RESULTS – Second Quarter 2026 (versus 2Q 2025)

Bedding Products –

• Trade sales decreased 1%

• Volume decreased 7%, primarily due to retailer merchandising changes and lower volume with a certain customer in Adjustable Bed, demand softness in U.S. and European bedding markets, and the decision during the fourth quarter of 2025 to walk away from a financially challenged customer in U.S. Spring. These declines were partially offset by higher trade rod and wire sales.

• Raw material-related selling price increases and currency benefit added 6% to sales

• EBIT increased $15 million and adjusted¹ EBIT increased $24 million

• Adjusted¹ EBIT increased primarily from metal margin expansion, favorable sales mix, temporary price-cost timing benefit in Specialty Foam, and restructuring benefit. These increases were partially offset by lower volume.

• We believe U.S. mattress market units were down low double digits in the second quarter

Specialized Products –

• Trade sales decreased 19%

• 2025 divestiture of Aerospace reduced sales 16%

• Volume decreased 4% from softer market demand

• Currency benefit increased sales 1%

• EBIT decreased $20 million and adjusted¹ EBIT decreased $15 million

• Adjusted¹ EBIT decreased primarily from earnings associated with the divested Aerospace business, currency impact, and lower volume

• Automotive volume was slightly below major market production in the quarter, driven by underperformance in Asia partially offset by outperformance in Europe and North America

Furniture, Flooring & Textile Products –

• Trade sales increased 1%

• Volume was flat with growth in Textiles offset by declines in Home Furniture, Work Furniture, and Flooring

• Raw material-related selling price increases added 1% to sales

• 2025 divestiture of a small facility in Work Furniture reduced sales <1%

• EBIT and adjusted¹ EBIT increased $5 million

• Adjusted¹ EBIT benefited from refunds of IEEPA tariffs that were paid during the eleven-month period they were in force. During that period, competitive pressures led to margin compression as cost increases, including tariffs, were not fully recovered through increased selling prices.

2026 GUIDANCE AND CONFERENCE CALL

On April 13, 2026, the Company entered into an agreement to be acquired by Somnigroup International Inc. (NYSE: SGI). The transaction is anticipated to close upon satisfaction of the remaining closing conditions, including Leggett & Platt shareholder approval at the August 20, 2026 meeting and remaining required regulatory approvals. As is customary while a transaction is pending, Leggett & Platt’s 2026 guidance issued in February was withdrawn last quarter and should no longer be relied upon. Additionally, Leggett & Platt will not host a conference call. For further details on quarterly performance, please refer to Leggett & Platt’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, which is expected to be filed today with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
