Share Repurchase Program
The Company announced that the Board of Directors has authorized a new share repurchase program of up to an incremental $200.0 million. Stock repurchases under this program may be made through open market transactions, negotiated purchases or otherwise, at times and in such amounts as management and a committee of the Board deem appropriate. 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. Repurchases may be made under a Rule 10b5-1 plan, which would permit shares to be repurchased when the Company might otherwise be precluded from doing so under insider trading laws. This share repurchase program replaces the Company’s prior share repurchase authorization, and may be limited, suspended or terminated at any time without prior notice.

Chief Financial Officer Dale Williams stated, "The new share repurchase program reflects our confidence in long term growth opportunities and our commitment to increase shareholder value. With high returns on capital, we project operating cash flow will be far in excess of our modest capital needs over the next several years."

Financial Guidance
The Company issued full year 2011 guidance for net sales and earnings per share. It currently expects net sales for 2011 to range from $1.230 billion to $1.280 billion. It currently expects EPS for 2011 to range from $2.60 to $2.75 per diluted share. 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. The Company noted its EPS guidance does not assume any benefit from a potential reduction in shares outstanding related to its share repurchase program.

Summary of Channel Sales
The Company generates sales through four distribution channels: retail, direct, healthcare and third party.  The retail channel sells to furniture, specialty and department stores globally.  The direct channel sells directly to consumers.  The healthcare channel sells to hospitals, nursing homes, healthcare professionals and medical retailers.  The third party channel sells to distributors in countries where Tempur-Pedic International does not operate its own distribution company.

On April 1, 2010, the Company purchased its third party distributor in Canada. Accordingly, net sales in the Canadian market are reported in the appropriate channels within the North American segment. As Canada represented essentially all sales through the North American third party channel, the Company no longer reports third party sales in this segment.
